My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1396: Chapter 1209: That’s It?

Ran Zhihan listened to her husband’s words, and her heart grew even heavier. What was her whole life truly for?

Was it for a man who had doubted her from the very beginning? Why did she have to make such great sacrifices?

Everything in the world was supposed to be equal, and she understood this very well in her heart. Yet, she foolishly jumped into the fire pit, and throughout her life, she had no way to turn things around. All she wanted was a stable life between husband and wife. Why did it seem so difficult for her to achieve? Why was there no one willing to give her this kind of life? Did she truly seem so undeserving of a happy life in their eyes?

”You really don’t need to say such things to me. I’ve always been grateful to you and loved you. I can hardly believe this was the decision I would make. When I was with you, I didn’t understand what love was. At that moment, I only knew that my heart would follow yours, beating with yours, and would hurt even more when you were sad. I just knew that as long as you were by my side, I would be extremely happy. Gradually, I realized that was my love for you, and this love wouldn’t change despite the conflicts between us. On the contrary, I’m very grateful for your tireless support, staying by my side time and again. This is the happiest thing in my life. I have no way to watch you suffer with open eyes!

No one can clearly describe the relationship between us. Many decisions are my own doing, so how can anyone else be blamed? I knew some decisions would bring me lifelong sorrow and tears, yet I still dove in without hesitation. Until the end, I was covered in wounds, yet I still foolishly waited, hoping someone would be there to stay with me.”

”Let’s each take a step back since we still have a young son at home. I’ve thought about it many times; I should let my son have a happy childhood, not like mine, always immersed in training. In the end, even if I ended up with the whole world, my heart was still empty. I want my child to, as you say, have the joyful childhood she deserves, not constantly proving to the indifferent people around her how remarkable she is. That would leave her exhausted and passive. No one can understand such heartache, but I don’t want my son to endure every step I’ve taken. That would be too cruel for him!”

”Have you noticed your dad is truly a cruel person? How could I have done such a thing to the wife I love the most? Worse than a beast, and yet I did it.”

Zhang Ni listened to his father laying out all of his affairs, and his heart could no longer bear it.

Yet he stood firmly there, still looking at his dad, waiting for him to speak everything, even though in the end, he might be unable to accept it, and it might crush him. But he still hoped to know everything. He couldn’t let his mom leave without knowing why. If in the end, the truth was unbearable, maybe he would do anything to find his mother.

These past few days, Zhang Ni had been enduring devil-like training at home every day.

When it was finally time for a break, he went to the bedroom to look for his mom and dad, only to find the room completely empty. He didn’t know why his mom hadn’t appeared in front of him all these days. Did she no longer want to live with him?

He was still a child, and of course, others couldn’t guess his inner thoughts. He felt deeply pained in his heart, knowing what kind of decision he should make in this lifetime. He didn’t want to continue such blind training. Maybe proving his excellence to his grandparents was important, but if it cost him the happiest childhood, what was the point of living in this world?
