Recently, she had been avoiding Long Wu, trying not to meet him because Mrs. Long went to Simeng a while ago to talk to her and said many things.
Mrs. Long didn't behave too forcefully; instead, she spoke gently about Long Wu's excellence and the complex interpersonal relationships behind his family.
Su Meng wasn't foolish—this time, she saw even more clearly the distance between the two of them. To call it a gulf as vast as heaven and earth wouldn't be an exaggeration, especially when there's the matter of infertility lying between them.
If she could get pregnant, perhaps she would have the courage to stand firmly by Long Wu's side, but alas, she couldn't. It seemed as though the ending had already been sealed many years ago.
The only reason this conclusion was delayed was because her misfortune kept Long Wu unable to let go of her.
