After the divorce with the male god - chapter 3
The alley was very narrow.
The houses on both sides were old and the oldest ones can be distinguished by their walls full of moss, extending from corner to corner.
Tian Li walked on the bluestone road of the alley on high heels.
At that time, a group of children who didn’t watch where they were going, sang songs while running.
“Shake, shake, shake…”
Hey, isn’t this a children’s song she once sang when she was a kid? Tian Li thought.
“Shake to Fools Bridge, Fools don’t eat rice cakes.”
Tian Li was dumbfounded, this was not the children’s song she had heard when she was a child.
Liu Lang’s face next to her was getting extremely ugly.
“Move, move west, fool, wow, wow…”
Tian Li looked at the children and the tension in her heart had not weakened in the slightest, but rather, it was strengthened.
What would her son look like? How old is he now? What is his name? Did he go to school? Will he call her mother?
A white and fat little Zhengtai[1] appeared in her mind, pulling at the hem of her dress, looking up at her face and calling her mother.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a loud voice, “You… how dare you not talk!!”
A sharp middle-aged woman’s voice sounded through the alley.
It was happening right at the corner of the alley.
A middle-aged woman was pinching the lips of a child with a terrible face.
The middle-aged woman was wearing a white dress that obviously didn’t fit her and she was also wearing heavy makeup. At that moment, her thumb and index finger pinched the little beanie’s lips and his lips were bruised and bleeding.
Tian Li frowned, before she could think what she would do, she heard Liu Lang next to him say, “Mom, did he make you angry again?”
Mom??
Tian Li only had the word in her mind for a moment and then she turned her attention to the thin, expressionless little boy wearing a small short sleeved shirt beside the woman.
For a moment, she only felt a surge of emotions that rushed straight from the soles of her feet to her forehead. Tian Li went up and grabbed the middle-aged woman’s hand and her nails sank into flesh.
When the middle-aged woman screamed in pain, she let go of the hand that pinched Xiao Douding[2].
Only then when she released her grip on the woman’s hand did she see clearly what Xiao Douding looked like. He was very white and clean, but he was very thin. There was no baby fat that should be present at his age and his lips were still bleeding. She could see a clear wound on his lower lip. He did not cry or make noises, and looked quietly at the side wall.
Tian Li fell into trance. She didn’t remember the child, but she was sore and felt warmth in her heart.
The middle-aged woman behind her was still clamoring, “Listen here you little shit, if I don’t kill you today, I will not be surnamed Li!”
While she was speaking, she went to the side to get a stick.
“Mom, forget it, she has already divorced me.” Liu Lang said.
While Xiaosan looked on, she didn’t speak.
Tian Li wiped the blood from the lips of her son whom she had just met, then stood up, turned around, fiercely looked at the middle-aged woman, and asked, “Why did you hit him?”
A middle-aged woman has never met Tian Li like this, “How dare you say that you fool. Your son is three years old and he can’t even talk, and you lost my Liu’s face!”
When Tian Li heard this, she was really dazed. She was like a mad little lion, “Because you were shamed, you beat my son, right?”
When Tian Li was finished speaking, she turned her head and faced Liu Lang.
With a snap, she struck Liu Lang’s face, leaving three blood marks.
“I also think your son has lost my Tian’s face!” Tian Li said fiercely.
Never did Liu Lang get beaten by a woman like this. When he snapped out from a daze, he struck back.
Tian Li held her bag to block. At this time, she had secretly taken off her high-heeled shoes. Tian Li was barefoot, hugged the little beanie next to her and ran.
At this time, her reason had returned, and she realized that these people were neurotic!
Staying back there would definitely get them beaten!
Liu Lang and his mother immediately chased Tian Li. Tian Li was faster since she was also a woman who can be the first in a 100-meter sprint at a school sports event. Even while holding a baby, it didn’t affect her performance at all.
After running out of the alley and making sure their pursuers were not able to catch up, Tian Li stopped running.
Because she ran too fast during their escape, her skin was torn and her feet hurt when she stood still.
Tian Li sat down next to the flower bed while holding Xiao Douding.
Xiao Douding was quiet.
Tian Li couldn’t help but touch the boy’s head. “No one will bully you in the future.”
Then she took out her phone and dialed a familiar number.
After a few seconds, a recording came from the phone.
“Sorry, the number you dialed is not in service, please check the number before dialing again.”
Tian Li was stunned for a while, after eight years, her dad must have changed his number.
Tian Li once again dialed his mother’s number, which was also not in service.
She opened the contacts of her mobile phone, but found that there were only two numbers; one was “mother-in-law” and the other was “husband”.
What about her parents’ numbers? Did she not save it?
What should I do now? My parents are not in this city. Even if I go back by train, it will take 36 hours. She only had a few tens of dollars.
Looking at Xiao Douding, who had fallen asleep while leaning on her body, Tian Li’s heart softened into a pool of water.
When she saw the boy’s lips, her eyes darkened. Before she came, she had no decision on how to deal with her son. Now, it was definitely impossible to leave her child to them.
As for what the other party had said, “He can’t speak at the age of three.” She also couldn’t speak when she was three, which was no big deal.
And now… she was in a dilemma. If she goes back, she will definitely be beaten. She wouldn’t win. If she doesn’t go back, they wouldn’t have a place to go.
As Tian Li shook her head, she suddenly had an idea.
When the police came, they saw a woman with messy hair and a haggard expression, holding a thin child in her arms…
Tian Li babbled about her husband and Xiaosan who forced her to divorce her husband and her mother-in-law beating her son.
“I’m going to divorce him, but… I have everything at home. If I go back, I will definitely be beaten. Could you go back with me? I’m sorry for causing you trouble…”
The policemen who came were two middle-aged men. When they saw the miserable appearance of Tian Li and her son, they couldn’t bear to leave her alone.
Sure enough, even in this world, only the policemen can give the best assurance of security.
Originally, she was already overwhelmed by her messy relationship, but now, she has an idea, to be precise, she knows what to do next.
The question she had been thinking about originally was why this kind of unsolvable problem would come eight years later, and why would Liu Lang change from that green boy to what it is now. What happened in these eight years?
Now that she has been thrown away by everyone, Tian Li told herself that she was already an adult and can see things from the perspective of an adult, so she has only one thing to solve, that is divorce!
