My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day

“Really?” Qu Yunyao kept her sweet smile, unfazed by the criticism, “I just wanted to show my best to my brother-in-law, so I thought more about it, which might have affected my playing.”

“No matter if it’s playing piano or doing things in general,” Xiao Yebai hinted, “Don’t aim too high and blindly fantasize. Be aware of your own position.”

“I understand what you mean, brother-in-law,” Qu Yunyao’s voice was gentle, “Like some people, they are princesses from the moment they were born, receiving endless love and enjoying wealth and privilege. But some people can only be ugly ducklings, who may not even turn into swans.”

“As long as you understand.” Xiao Yebai replied indifferently.

“But brother-in-law, even though we can’t change our birth, we can change our future with opportunities and effort. Like you, if the Mo Family hadn’t adopted you coincidentally, provided you with the best education, sent you to America for further study and arranged your marriage with Yiyi, you might still be struggling in that small county. And you possibly wouldn’t even know what a piano is, right?”

The room fell silent.

“Also, when I went to use the restroom just now, I accidentally took a wrong turn and… ended up where you were making a phone call,” Qu Yunyao asked innocently, “What were you looking up, brother-in-law?”

Xiao Yebai observed her, his face expressionless, his eyes chilly.

From beginning to end, no matter what she said, he showed no emotional fluctuation.

Like the deep sea in the quiet of the night, he was inscrutable.

“Brother-in-law,” Qu Yunyao’s voice was soft, “Don’t you think we share some similarities? I too, like you, crave support and help, wanting to climb up and bid farewell to my past life. Would brother-in-law give me a helping hand?”

Xiao Yebai’s eyes narrowed slightly and he finally spoke, “How can I assist you?”

Upon hearing his softened tone, Qu Yunyao was secretly delighted and hurriedly explained, “I know that you are the Mo Family’s CEO. Everything is tailored to your command. I wonder if you’re interested in investing in films? There’s a movie that’s currently seeking investors, directed by…”

Suddenly, with a creak, the half-open door was pushed open from outside.

Qu Yunyao turned around, “Yiyi, you’re here.”

“What were you two talking about?” Mo Weiyi stood at the door with the support of a cane, her sight shifting back and forth between the two.

From her perspective, Xiao Yebai was sitting on the sofa and Qu Yunyao was standing in front of him. Even though they maintained a safe distance, they seemed…

Rather intimate.

Especially with only the two of them in the room, a potentially troublesome situation. Coupled with Yebai being so charming.

Mo Weiyi tilted her head, feeling a tiny bit unsettled due to her own suspicions.

“I have been struggling with a chord progression and was seeking some advice from your husband,” explained Qu Yunyao.

“Oh.” Mo Weiyi blinked, “Are you done? Grandma said she wants to rest.”

“We’re almost done,” answered Qu Yunyao, smiling, “Thank you, Yiyi. Can I ask for more advice from you some other time if I still don’t understand?”

Mo Weiyi looked at her. “Your brother-in-law is very busy. Since you need the guidance so badly, I’ll find you a piano teacher tomorrow, how does that sound?”

“Really?” Qu Yunyao’s eyes lit up, unable to conceal her excitement, “That’s great, thank you Yiyi.”

Mo Weiyi:”…”

At the bottom of her heart, the trace of doubt quickly dissipated.

Forget it, this cousin is a year younger than her, said to have never dated, always busy with learning and practicing the piano… she probably doesn’t even think in terms of gender, does she?

“Yebai, help me take Grandma to rest.”

Xiao Yebai got up from his seat and walked over.

Mo Weiyi was waiting, her left hand lifted, expecting him to help her stand.

But when he got close, he picked her up immediately instead.

Caught completely off guard, Mo Weiyi uttered a cry of surprise before hastily circling her arms around his neck.

“This way is easier,” said Xiao Yebai, and, holding her close, he left.

Qu Yunyao stood in her original spot, her smile deepening as she watched their retreating figures.

“Yebai.”

In the corridor, Mo Weiyi, laying in her husband’s arms, probed him, “Isn’t my cousin very smart?”

“What do you mean?”

“She excelled in everything since childhood. She played piano, chess, practiced calligraphy and painting, and her academic performance was also outstanding.” Mo Weiyi scrunched her nose, speaking in a soft voice, “My mom used to compare me to her.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes.” Mo Weiyi nodded, her voice sounding somewhat detached in the quiet night, “Students like you, who have been excellent since childhood, wouldn’t you have a lot to talk about if you were together?”

Xiao Yebai paused in his tracks.

Then, lowering his gaze, he looked at the young girl in his arms.

She was looking back at him, her beautiful cat eyes wide open, her skin smooth and fair. Her deep auburn curls spilled onto his arm and chest, soft and lustrous.

“There are not as many topics as with you,” Xiao Yebai admitted calmly.

“…” Mo Weiyi was stunned.

Despite his flat tone and almost unchanged expression, she couldn’t help but feel sweetness bubble up inside her. Her lips curled upwards in a small smile, revealing her delight.

But then she put on a stern face and retorted, “Arrogant! Even if you have a ton of things to talk about with other women, you are still my man.. You will be my man for this entire lifetime!”
