Chapter 145 Emergency treatment
Yuan Bao's face was filled with self-blame and regret. His brows were tightly furrowed into a "川" shape, his lips trembled slightly, and he muttered to himself, "It's all my fault. I was too impatient."
Looking back on the time she spent trying to find love for her elder brother Baoguo, she realized that she was single-mindedly trying to get him settled down as soon as possible. However, she overlooked the fact that matters of the heart cannot be rushed and require genuine compatibility and the passage of time.
She kept reflecting on herself, realizing that it was this eagerness that made her neglect to get to know her brother well when choosing a partner, which allowed someone like Xiaofang to take advantage of her and cause her brother so much harm.
Yuan Bao's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to his past.
At that time, she had just turned 29, but had never been in a relationship. The teasing from her colleagues in the office and the unrestrained questioning and ridicule from her friends at gatherings were like thorns piercing her heart.
Every time she heard those words, she could only laugh awkwardly, but her heart was filled with anxiety and unease.
Finally, at a friend's party, she met the handsome man.
A few sweet words and a few concerned glances were enough to make her lose her head.
At that time, all she wanted was to end her single life and escape being laughed at, so she didn't bother to investigate the other person's character.
Only after they started dating did she discover that this man was simultaneously juggling relationships with several older women, using the same sweet talk to deceive them into giving him their feelings and money.
When the truth was laid bare before her, Yuan Bao felt like a fool. Anger, shame, and regret intertwined, making it unbearable for her.
However, instead of giving herself time to heal her wounds, she hastily chose another seemingly handsome man to marry in order to prove herself and out of spite.
The married life was nothing like the sweetness and warmth Yuan Bao had envisioned. Reality was like a heavy slap in the face, shattering her fantasies.
Before the joy of their marriage had completely faded, her husband confessed to her without any hesitation that the marriage was not based on love, but simply because his family was pressuring him to get married and he urgently needed to find someone to appease his elderly parents.
Such a hasty union, devoid of any emotional foundation, is like a castle built on sand—fragile and unbearable.
After marriage, all sorts of conflicts and problems came crashing down like a tidal wave, leaving people overwhelmed.
Because he didn't love her, the husband was stingy with every little thing in life and refused to contribute a single penny to household expenses.
Whenever the topic of living expenses comes up, he always looks impatient and makes up all sorts of excuses to avoid it.
Although her husband was of a mature and stable age, he had a temper as volatile as a willful child.
They fly into a rage at the slightest inconvenience in life, and even threaten to run away from home at the drop of a hat.
Those heated arguments and the image of someone slamming the door and leaving became the norm in Yuan Bao's married life.
Yuan Bao then suddenly realized how foolish it was to rush into things in the world of emotions.
The more eager you are to accomplish major life events, the more likely you are to fall into deeper predicaments.
She entered into marriage full of joy, but she never expected that she had paid to marry a "grandpa" who never grew up. Not only did she have to bear the pressure of life alone, but she also had to put up with his bad temper.
Yuan Bao has an inherently stubborn streak and refuses to admit defeat; she is unwilling to continue wallowing in this marriage filled with grievances and pain.
After careful consideration, she resolutely chose to divorce, ending this marriage that existed in name only.
But fate played a cruel joke on her; shortly after the divorce, she discovered she was pregnant.
The moment Yuan Bao learned she was pregnant, she was overwhelmed with mixed feelings, a complex mix of emotions swirling within her.
The road ahead was instantly shrouded in a thick fog, and loneliness and helplessness followed her like a shadow, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
But after a brief moment of confusion, her gaze gradually hardened, and a force emanating from maternal love quietly welled up within her.
The child is the continuation of her life, a precious gift she unexpectedly gained in this failed marriage.
Although the man is a thing of the past, the little life inside her is her flesh and blood, a bond she cannot let go of.
"The man belongs to someone else, but the child is your own." Yuan Bao repeated this sentence countless times in her heart, and each repetition made her determination even stronger.
She gently stroked her slightly protruding belly and whispered tenderly, "Baby, don't be afraid, Mommy will always be with you. No matter how difficult the road ahead may be, we will face it bravely together."
Yuan Bao made a decision: she would give birth to the child, take on the responsibility of raising him alone, and use all her love to create a warm haven for the child.
The days after the child's birth were like a difficult marathon, with every step soaked in Yuan Bao's sweat and tears.
The joy of becoming a mother for the first time was quickly overwhelmed by the life problems that followed.
Before the fatigue from childbirth had completely subsided, Yuan Bao had to face the trivialities and hardships of caring for the baby all by herself.
Later, when Yuan's mother learned about the difficult situation Yuan Bao was facing raising her child alone, she felt extremely distressed.
Without hesitation, she packed her bags and traveled from her hometown.
Throughout the journey, she was constantly thinking about her daughter and young grandson, and despite the long and tiring journey, she never hesitated for a moment.
As soon as Yuan Ma arrived, she quickly took on the responsibility of taking care of the family and children.
Every morning, she is always the first to get up and prepare a nutritious breakfast for Yuanbao and the children;
While the children played, she carefully watched over them, her eyes never leaving them;
At night, after the children fall asleep, she quietly cleans the room, organizes clothes, and keeps the house in perfect order.
With Yuan's mother's meticulous care, Yuan Bao was finally able to be freed from tedious housework and devote himself more fully to his work.
Fortunately, the child was well-behaved and sensible, and rarely caused Yuan Bao any worry during his growth. At work, Yuan Bao also gradually gained the recognition of his leaders and colleagues through his own efforts and outstanding abilities.
With the strong support of General Manager Huang, Yuan Bao has been steadily promoted and is about to take charge of his work and start a new chapter in his career.
However, fate always seems to play tricks.
Just as Yuan Bao was full of hope and planning for the future, a piece of bad news struck like a bolt from the blue—General Manager Huang suddenly passed away.
This unexpected turn of events drastically altered Yuan Bao's work environment, plunging many businesses into chaos and stagnation, and instantly shattering previous development plans.
After careful consideration, Yuan Bao resolutely chose to resign and embark on the path of starting his own business.
In the early stages of his business, Yuan Bao relied on his keen market insight and relentless hard work to gradually get his company on the right track, and the development trend in the first few years was very positive.
However, as the saying goes, "Man proposes, God disposes," and the pandemic, which had lasted for several years, suddenly struck, sweeping through all walks of life like a fierce storm. Yuan Bao's business was no exception.
