Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 5: No Need to Get Mixed Up Together Anymore

Yu Xinyan had no intention of being overly polite with Sister Tian. After all, this debt belonged to Lyu Juncheng, so the thanks owed to the Tian Family was his burden too. Even ignoring her past life's events, her hospitalization this time stemmed directly from his son's actions.

Yet, pondering the road ahead truly brought her a nagging headache.

Returning to the Yu Family was out of the question for her. The tragedies of her previous life involved them deeply, and she had zero desire to face those folks right now.

Moreover, heading back to the village would likely mean neither the Yu Family nor the Lyu Family would let her live in peace, with who-knows-what nasty gossip spreading everywhere.

She had packed all her essentials anyway, including the household registration transfer papers right in her bag. Still, after splitting from Lyu Juncheng, handling the registration transfer would prove tricky.

The thought left her anxious and irritated. No matter, she'll cross that bridge when she comes to it. Whatever comes, she'll deal with it!

For three days in the hospital, Lyu Juncheng showed up just once, pushing her to check out early and head home to mind the kids. Reflecting on it, she realized just how blind she had been in her past life.

That day, Sister Tian brought her meal: "Sister, if you’re better now, you should head home. With no one caring for Jun Cheng’s kids, it’s simply unworkable."

Yu Xinyan took the lunch box and replied calmly, "Didn’t his ex-wife have plenty of siblings? Why can’t they watch the children?"

Sister Tian started to speak but ended up staying silent.

Deep down, though, she knew that in the Yao Family, only Yao Qian’s mother genuinely cared about those three kids; even biological aunt Yao Hui probably lacked real concern.

If not, Lyu Juncheng wouldn’t have traveled afar to find a bride.

Still, she dared not voice it. Should Lyu Juncheng hear her chatting behind his back, her own husband would surely make her suffer.

Once Sister Tian dropped off the food and left, Yu Xinyan rose, planning a stroll downstairs. Staying bedridden constantly wasn’t healthy; she craved some movement.

Right as she exited the ward, a small boy with a lunch box approached the neighboring room. A voice at the door called, "Sili, bringing food for your uncle?"

The boy’s stern little face softened into a faint smile. "Hello, Grandpa Zhang."

"Good, good, quick, take it to your uncle."

Passing that ward’s entrance, Yu Xinyan glanced inside instinctively and locked eyes with the man peering out. Stunned for a beat, she nodded courteously at him and continued on.

After one more day in the hospital, she gathered her belongings for discharge, knowing it was time to settle things with Lyu Juncheng. She couldn’t drag it out forever.

Post-discharge formalities, Yu Xinyan skipped the family quarters and checked into a hostel room instead. With separation from Lyu Juncheng looming, no point in staying tangled up.

Considering her predicament and July’s looming college entrance exam, a wave of gloom washed over her.

The biggest headache right now: splitting from Lyu Juncheng left no spot for her household registration. Lacking a receiving unit, her student records couldn’t transfer, dooming her studies.

Plus, to break free from Lyu Juncheng, clearing that 200-yuan debt might come first. Yu Xinyan wouldn’t battle solo; mindsets remained traditional, divorces rare, so she needed allies for justice.

To play it safe, the Lyu Family pressed Lyu Juncheng on day two to get the marriage certificate registered first.

Lyu Juncheng figured registering the certificate upfront was smartest. With it stamped, no lavish banquet needed, saving a bundle. His nature didn’t shine favorably.
