Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 736 - 731: The Truth Behind the Divorce

"I have no idea, I don’t even know if there’s a house there for me." Luo Zhiyong thought for a moment and then intentionally looked at Fang Pingying with a wronged expression, batting his eyelids, "And frankly, I don’t really like living in a house all by myself. If the house is too big, I don’t feel safe."

Fang Pingying looked at the man who was always serious in front of others but had started acting spoilt in front of her recently, and said grumpily, "Then don’t go. You can just move all your stuff directly to your little military dormitory. The space there is not wide, and the house isn’t big, but at least you’ll feel safe."

"Wife." Luo Zhiyong took Fang Pingying’s hand. He planned to have a proper talk with Fang Pingying today and clear things up once and for all. "Actually, can you tell me why... why you’ve been refusing..."

After some thought, Luo Zhiyong chose a more suitable word, "Uh, why you’ve been refusing to forgive me?"

Fang Pingying recalled that she had indeed been cold to this man for a while. Seeing his bewildered appearance all the time, she felt it was also time to clarify things.

After all, Fang Pingying herself wasn’t the type to prefer guessing everything. She wanted to take the opportunity to clear things up.

She simply stopped what she was doing while packing, stood beside the bed, and looked at Luo Zhiyong with raised eyebrows, "What’s the matter, remembered your own unfaithfulness?"

Of course, Luo Zhiyong couldn’t remember at all. In fact, ever since Fang Pingying had last reminded him, he had been thinking but couldn’t come up with anything.

So, seizing the opportunity, he also planned to get to the bottom of it.

He decided to go about it in a roundabout way, looking at Fang Pingying and saying, "Wife, haven’t you said before that couples should be honest with each other? Whatever it is, we should be open and not always guess each other’s thoughts, otherwise, it can lead to misunderstandings."

"Luo Zhiyong, are you sure we’re a couple right now?" Fang Pingying looked at Luo Zhiyong with a puzzled expression and clarified her statement, "Have you forgotten that we officially went back to the local government office and got divorced? After that, we didn’t remarry; we’re just living together."

"Divorce, remarriage." Luo Zhiyong wasn’t stupid; he caught on to the most crucial words in Fang Pingying’s statement and pondered for a while. Suddenly, his eyes brightened as he finally understood the crux of the issue. His eyes shone as he looked at Fang Pingying, "Wife, do you mean that after our divorce, I always said that we should remarry, but I never actually took you to remarry, right?"

"Hmph." Fang Pingying huffed, finding the man not completely foolish after all. This time, she wanted to see how he would explain himself.

However, to her surprise, after Luo Zhiyong confirmed that Fang Pingying was upset about this issue, he did not hurry to explain; instead, he burst into laughter, leaving Fang Pingying utterly confused and on the brink of angrily cursing him when Luo Zhiyong stopped laughing and began to speak, "Haha, so it’s just about this. I thought it was something more serious. You made it sound as if I’d been terribly unfaithful."

"Luo Zhiyong, you think this matter is not important?" Fang Pingying frowned at him and asked incomprehensibly, "Then please enlighten me, what does it mean for you to linger in my house every day, refusing to leave, yet never mentioning remarriage? What exactly are you scheming?"

"Are you scared by our last marriage, feeling that you’ve finally regained your freedom, so now you want to live freely, waiting until the day I get tired of this home, annoyed, and can leave at any time without the hassle of having to go through divorce formalities again, right?"

After Fang Pingying finished speaking, Luo Zhiyong couldn’t help wanting to laugh, but seeing Fang Pingying’s stern face, he held it in.

Then, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, he said to Fang Pingying, "Wife, only today did I discover why you’re so successful in business. Your mind really is more intricate than others."

"Luo Zhiyong, stop changing the subject. Since we’ve come to this topic today, and since we’re moving tomorrow, let’s clear it up." Fang Pingying knew the man was implying she was overthinking, and she didn’t bother to respond, but she wanted an answer, "We can live together if it’s possible, or just let it be this way."

"Silly wife, if I really had such intentions, would I stick around following you like a puppy, eyes aglow... waiting for you?" Luo Zhiyong finished speaking and intentionally winked at Fang Pingying, his eyes communicating a suggestive intent.

When Fang Pingying saw him acting like this, her face flushed, and she scolded, "Be serious."

Luo Zhiyong laughed again, then hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Actually... when I say it, you can’t get angry."

"Speak."

Luo Zhiyong looked at Fang Pingying and bit the bullet to reveal the situation, "Actually, about our divorce, it was a sham; we never really divorced last time."

"What do you mean?" Fang Pingying was completely unaware of the situation at the time and thus did not know the machinations of this man.

Looking at her, Luo Zhiyong explained, "Remember, when we ’divorced’ it was through someone I knew who took care of it. Actually, our divorce papers never got the final official seal, so it didn’t count; we never got divorced."

After Luo Zhiyong spelled it out, Fang Pingying thought carefully about the situation at the time, and she remembered that because their child was sick, she was anxious to go back, and the government worker was not present that day, indeed the final step was not completed.

But at that time, Luo Zhiyong assured her that he would take care of everything and that she could rest assured.

She felt Luo Zhiyong also seemed eager to divorce. Plus, their child was indeed very ill, so she couldn’t be at ease and went back to the city.

Little did she know, this scoundrel had tampered with things at that moment. No wonder...

After Fang Pingying understood the whole affair, a surge of anger was uncontrollable inside her, and she glared at Luo Zhiyong with fiery eyes.

This man, he really deserved to be taken to task.

But Luo Zhiyong, as if he’d already anticipated her reaction, immediately pulled her to sit by him with a smile on his face.

Then, his smile gradually disappeared, and he looked at her very seriously, "Pingying, honestly, from the moment we started having feelings for each other, I knew you were my wife for life, my lifelong partner. Under any circumstances, I’ve never thought about giving up on you. The reason I came up with that idea last time was only to deal with my family’s side. I wanted you to live a peaceful life while I took the time to sort out all the matters with my family."
