Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Time flew by, and the recording of the show was almost coming to an end. In the first few episodes, the couples had all traveled separately. Thus, in the last one, the director arranged for the guests to gather for the last episode to drink and chat.

Everyone went to the supermarket to buy some beer, fruits, and snacks. At night, they turned off the lights and only turned on a few small night lights. Everyone sat around the sofa and chatted.

Hazel lay on Zahn’s lap as the two of them drank a can of beer.

Xylia was afraid that drinking beer would stimulate her brain and she would not be able to sleep well at night, so she poured some red wine for herself and Georg in the red wine glass. Drinking some red wine was beneficial to help with sleep.

“Do any of you want to drink red wine?” Xylia asked.

“Sister Xylia, pour me a glass,” Sharon said.

Xylia took a glass of red wine and poured Sharon a glass.

“Sister Xylia, I want a glass of red wine too,” Michelle said.

Other than Georg, Wallace, Donald, and Zahn all drank beer. Everyone drank and chatted with peanuts, melon seeds, edamame, and various snacks and fruits.

Michelle leaned against Donald as she drank red wine and ate snacks while listening to their conversation.

At first, everyone restrained themselves, but as the alcohol kicked in, they chatted more and more heartily.

“Do you know? Everyone on the Internet is envious of the love between me and my wife,” Donald suddenly said. He spoke a little incoherently, clearly a little drunk. “But my wife and I have been working hard to get along for so many years.”

“It’s good to work to get used to each other. How can there be a couple who doesn’t need to work to get used to each other?” Georg was experienced. He was the oldest among these guests. After so many years of marriage, he had experienced too many storms and bumps.

“Brother Georg is right. There is no perfect match in this world, if there’s someone who completely suits you and doesn’t need to get along with you at all, you have to be careful. He must have ulterior motives for you. He’s pretending to be himself. He must want something from you,” Zahn said.

“That’s right.” Donald smiled and looked at Michelle. Then, he looked at the wine glass in front of him and said, ‘My wife and I have always been on quite good terms. However, when our conflict was at its worst, we almost got a divorce.”

Everyone was very surprised. They did not expect that the immortal couple in everyone’s eyes had also experienced the predicament of their marriage being on the verge of collapse.

“That was when my wife was pregnant.” Donald continued, “At that time, my wife was pregnant and her emotions were unstable. She seemed to have become a different person.”

Michelle took a sip of red wine and recalled that terrible memory. During her pregnancy, she was very anxious every day and often vomited. She was physically and mentally exhausted. She even thought of committing suicide, but fortunately, she had survived that period.

“Yes, I’m more emotional to begin with. In addition to that, I was pregnant,” Hazel said. “I even feel like I went crazy back then. I would have especially emotional fluctuations whenever something happened.”

“When I was pregnant and was about to give birth, my stomach was so big that I couldn’t lie down and sleep. I just sat up and laid on my husband to sleep the entire night, ” Xylia recalled.

When Sharon heard that the women actually suffered so much during their pregnancy, she suddenly felt that it was good that she didn’t experience that process.

“At that time, I was young. I didn’t understand that a woman’s emotions would fluctuate so much when she was pregnant. I thought that I would be fine after giving birth. I didn’t expect my wife to be depressed after giving birth. During that period of time, I was also about to be depressed,” Donald continued.

Michelle looked at Donald. She wasn’t afraid that Donald would share about the experience between them, nor was she afraid of it being seen by the entire country. To her, that dark period of her marriage was already over, and they were no longer the same as before after experiencing the storms of their marriage.

‘When a woman is pregnant, her estrogen level will increase, causing her emotions to fluctuate more. After giving birth, she won’t be able to quickly recover to the state she was before pregnancy. The prevalence of postpartum depression is quite high,” Wallace said.

“A woman will secrete a large amount of oxytocin and prolactin during labor. These hormones are happy hormones that make people happy, but after labor, these hormones will be removed by the body. When you’re pregnant, it’s like you’re soaking in happy hormones. After that, the body will remove these hormones. Of course, many people won’t be able to take it, so there will be postpartum depression and suicide,” Wallace continued..
