But Chen Minrou just couldn't let it go. She remained melancholic and listless, showing no interest in anything throughout her pregnancy.
'I must be sick,' she thought.
Her heart was heavy with a grief she couldn't shake, all because of one thing her husband had said.
This mood persisted until she went into labor, and she once again had a difficult birth.
Hovering between life and death, Chen Minrou saw many scenes from the "future."
In the third year after her death, Zhao Shijie would fall in love with a young girl and take her as his new wife.
They would have a string of children, living a sweet and loving life together.
Meanwhile, the son and daughter she left behind, without a mother's protection or their father's favor, would live out mediocre lives.
When she awoke that time and saw her husband by her bedside—unshaven, his eyes bloodshot, the picture of dejection—Chen Minrou suddenly saw everything with perfect clarity.
She was no longer hung up on romantic love.
