After listening to Wen Siyuan, Mother Su felt so ashamed she wished she could disappear, but she still wanted to give it one more try, so she asked, "Is there really no room for negotiation?"
Mother Su knew perfectly well what divorce meant for a woman, and besides, Su Man was the one at fault in the marriage, leaving with nothing was certain. The most crucial thing was… after what Su Man had done, her reputation was ruined, and if those gossips in their family courtyard found out, there's no telling what kind of things they'd say.
So, if they could avoid divorce, it would be for the best.
At this moment, Mother Su desperately hoped Wen Siyuan would give her, as the mother-in-law, some dignity. Yet, she hadn't considered that what Su Man did was, without a doubt, trampling Wen Siyuan's pride over and over, and as Su Man's mother, she hadn't taught her daughter well—where would she find the face to beg Wen Siyuan? To beg the victim in the marriage?
