Broken Promises Won't Save a Marriage

Before leaving, I called Fu Tianming. After a few rings, the call was answered.
"Hello?"
I spoke up, "Fu Tianming, let's get a divorce."
There was a half-second silence on the other end before the voice replied, "President Fu is in a meeting. I'm Liu Qingqing. If you have something to say, I can relay it to him."
Her voice carried a hint of provocation.
I smirked slightly, "So you're his new flame. Miss Liu, I've placed the divorce agreement on the bedside table. Please let Fu Tianming know to sign it when he returns."
On the other end, Liu Qingqing's voice was filled with disbelief, "You want to divorce President Fu?"
I couldn't be bothered to say another word and hung up the phone.
Over the past year, I had countless arguments with Fu Tianming because of Liu Qingqing. I had asked him to fire her, but he always kept her around. This argument had become meaningless.
I no longer wanted to waste time on someone who had someone else in their heart and wouldn't let me go. When I left, I took nothing that reminded me of him. All I wanted was myself.
At that moment, I felt a sense of relief as if I had escaped from a cage. Finally, I was no longer trapped.
But just as I was about to get into my car, someone suddenly grabbed my wrist.
"Feng Nuannuan, please don't get a divorce!"
Fu Tianming stood in front of me, panting heavily. He held my hand tightly as if afraid that if he let go, I would disappear.
I calmly replied, "Fu Tianming, it's too late. My heart is already dead; it won't come back."
With red-rimmed eyes, he looked at me and said, "Nuan Nuan, Liu Qingqing and I aren't what you think..."
"It doesn't matter anymore," I interrupted him. "Fu Tianming, I don't care anymore."
I pushed his hand away and walked towards the ticket gate. He didn't chase after me anymore.
I remembered how he used to call me 'wife' when we first got married.
The year we first arrived in New City, we squeezed onto a train together to go home for the Spring Festival.
The station was crowded with people, and he held my hand tightly, protecting me against his chest, afraid I would get knocked over.
"Don't be afraid, my dear."
"I'm here."
I leaned against his chest, listening to his rapid heartbeat, filled with happiness.
At that moment, I was certain that no man would ever be better than Fu Tianming.
On the train, an aunt saw us and sighed, "Being young is wonderful."
Fu Tianming wrapped his arms around me, looking proud. "Auntie, this is my wife."
I smiled and playfully punched him. "Look at you, so smug."
"My dear, don't you think it's a blessing that I married you?"
He held me tightly and whispered in my ear, "Feng Nuannuan, I will always treat you well and love you forever."
At that time, he truly kept his promise to me.
Three years into our marriage, we had never argued and were always sweet together.
I thought we would be this happy for a lifetime.
But in the fourth year, he began to change.
He started coming home later and was away on business trips more often.
When I asked him why, he said, "Honey, the company has been really busy lately."
"I'm sorry, dear."
I understood how hard he was working and rarely insisted on him spending time with me anymore.
Later, I found out it wasn't that he was busy; he had grown tired of being with me.
One night, I woke up from a nightmare to find him missing from my side.
I called him, but it was Liu Qingqing who answered the phone.
She told me, "President Fu is taking a shower."
At that moment, my heart sank to the bottom.
Liu Qingqing was his new secretary—young and beautiful.
I had seen her once; she wore a fitted business suit that accentuated her figure and had a radiant smile on her face.
The way she looked at Fu Tianming made me very uncomfortable. I had once suggested to Fu Tianming that he should fire Liu Qingqing. But he refused. He said, "Nuan Nuan, I have nothing going on with Liu Qingqing. Her work performance is good, and I don't want personal feelings to affect work." I smiled coldly and replied, "Is that so? Then why does her job include answering your calls late at night?" Fu Tianming fell silent for a moment and said, "That was a misunderstanding." "Nuan Nuan, trust me." I will always remember the sincerity and earnestness in his eyes when he said that to me. He was the person I loved the most, and I believed he wouldn't lie to me. So, I chose to trust his explanation.
But later on, I gradually realized that he had changed. He started working overtime and going on business trips frequently, coming home very late. Every time I asked him about it, he would always dismissively say he was busy. One time, I accidentally saw his schedule and noticed that many time slots were blank. When I asked him about it, he impatiently replied, "Nuan Nuan, didn't I tell you I'm busy? Why are you investigating me?" I calmly responded, "Fu Tianming, you are lying." "I'm not investigating you; what I saw was your schedule, and many times are empty." He frowned slightly and said, "That must be a mistake by the secretary." I stared into his eyes and asked, "Really?" "Of course it's true," he said as he took my hand gently. "Nuan Nuan, how could I lie to you?" At that moment, I almost believed him again. But deep down, I still felt that something was off. Until one day, I accidentally saw his chat records.
