Chapter 364 Jiang Ciyou's Family Conflict Begins
The relationship between Jiang Ciyou and her husband was like a ship that was crumbling in a storm. From the moment she returned to her husband, she was destined to face endless waves.
Her husband's life was completely occupied by his career, and staying out all night was commonplace for him. In his world, it seemed that there were only the profit games in the business field and those so-called social events. Every night, Jiang Ciyou always sat alone in the empty living room, and the silence around her seemed to swallow her up. She watched the clock hands on the wall move one by one, and the loneliness and loss in her heart spread little by little. She liked a quiet family life and once dreamed that the two of them could share the joys and sorrows of the day together at night, sit on the sofa together to watch TV, or just read quietly together. However, all this has become a luxury now.
In daily communication, quarrels are like an indispellable haze that always shrouds their lives. The husband always blames Jiang Ciyou in a condescending manner. He feels that Jiang Ciyou does not pay enough attention to his career. He would frown and say to Jiang Ciyou at the dinner table: "Look at you, you just do nothing at home all day long and can't help my career at all. I work so hard outside, can't you do more?" Jiang Ciyou felt aggrieved when she heard such words. She retorted: "I keep everything in order at home so that you don't have to worry about anything. Isn't this a kind of support? When have you ever really cared about this family and me?" Her voice was trembling, and tears were in her eyes. She didn't understand why her husband had become so indifferent and utilitarian.
The husband seemed to not understand Jiang Ciyou's feelings at all, and he was still immersed in his own thinking mode. He went out early and came back late every day. Even when he was at home, he always took his mobile phone to deal with work matters and ignored Jiang Ciyou's existence. Jiang Ciyou tried to communicate with him and wanted him to understand the importance of family, but her husband always interrupted her impatiently: "Don't always bother me with these little things. I am busy with big things now, which are related to our future." Jiang Ciyou felt like a transparent person, and her emotional needs were completely ignored by her husband.
Once, Jiang Ciyou prepared a dinner carefully, hoping to sit down and have a good meal with her husband and enjoy a rare family time. She cooked her husband's favorite dishes, set the table and lit candles. However, when her husband came home and saw all this, he did not show a trace of surprise. Instead, he frowned and said, "I still have a lot of work to do today, and I am not in the mood to eat these." After that, he walked into the study and closed the door. Jiang Ciyou looked at the table full of food and couldn't help but shed tears. She felt that her efforts were like a joke, and her last hope for this family began to shatter at this moment.
As time went by, the conflict between them became deeper and deeper. Jiang Ciyou began to realize that this home was no longer the warm harbor she had expected. She recalled the time she had spent with Lu Jingchen, when Lu Jingchen would always listen to her thoughts carefully and care about her joys and sorrows. They would cook together and enjoy the food in a warm atmosphere. Even for a simple walk, Lu Jingchen would hold her hand tightly, making her feel endless love. But now, her husband's indifference made her feel as if she was in an ice cellar.
Jiang Ciyou tried to change this situation. She began to take more initiative to care about her husband's life. She would prepare breakfast for him before he went out and put a warm note in his clothes. However, her husband did not respond to her actions and continued to do what he wanted. Jiang Ciyou felt extremely tired and she didn't know how long she could hold on.
They also couldn't agree on household matters. For example, regarding the decoration style of the house, Jiang Ciyou liked a simple and warm style. She felt that home should be a place where people could feel relaxed and comfortable. But her husband wanted a luxurious and grand style. He thought that this would show their status. They argued about this issue countless times, and each time they ended in a bad mood.
In terms of family finances, conflicts also became increasingly prominent. The husband always invested a lot of money in his business, regardless of the actual needs of the family. Jiang Ciyou felt that the family's finances should have a reasonable plan, taking into account all aspects of life, such as reserving emergency funds and making plans for future life. However, her husband believed that as long as the business was successful, money would come naturally, and there was no need to be so cautious.
Jiang Ciyou began to despair about this marriage. She felt like a bird trapped in a cage, unable to break free. She struggled in pain every day, not knowing where her future lay. She began to miss the free time after she left her husband. Although she was also confused and painful at that time, at least she could live according to her own wishes. And now, she has fallen into another abyss.
In such a depressing family environment, Jiang Ciyou's mental state became worse and worse. She often suffered from insomnia at night and had no energy during the day. Her friends were very worried about her when they saw her like this, but she didn't know how to talk to them. She felt that her life was like a mess and she couldn't find a clue. She began to wonder if she really wanted to continue wasting her life in this loveless marriage.
This period of time was like a long nightmare for Jiang Ciyou. She felt endless pain and loneliness in this seemingly intact but actually broken family. She knew she had to make a decision, either to continue to endure this pain or to bravely find a new way out. However, this decision was not easy for her, and she needed to consider many factors, such as social opinion, family pressure, etc. However, the desire for freedom and happiness in her heart was constantly struggling, trying to break through all these constraints.
