My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1443: Chapter 1238: Who Doesn’t Want Peace?

Everyone hopes their life can be happy and peaceful, smooth sailing, and uneventful. They don’t wish to earn a lot of money, but only hope their family stays healthy, so they can always return home to a warm harbor, which is the greatest happiness for anyone.

But alas, many people, for the sake of a little so-called profit, end up hurting the ones they love most, causing them the heaviest of pains, making it impossible for them to act as if it never happened.

Zhang Zhentian felt gratified that his parents could be so honest and open with him today. After all, his mother no longer dodged all responsibilities like before. She used to be someone who couldn’t bear any responsibility, always trying to push everything onto others. For her to be willing to take it all on now indicates a change. So why would he repeatedly hurt them? Everything he did was for the family’s happiness.

As long as everyone in the family gets along as harmoniously as they do now, losing something or paying some price doesn’t matter. He never imagined the family could be so peaceful, and what was everything he once did for? No one knew. Everyone makes mistakes, strays from the path at some point, but it’s up to you to realize what it was all for. If you can’t ever find clarity, then no matter how much you do, it will have no effect. Try to think from others’ perspectives; if you were in their place, how would you handle things? Would you still be so aggressive, or if you were the one urged by others, what would you do?

”Mom and Dad are grateful for everything you’ve done. No matter what, I won’t act recklessly like before. Whenever I did something willful, deep down, I was in pain and saddened. I never thought I’d be like this today. Step by step, I got here, and I’m so afraid. All I want is to live happily and healthily. I’ve borne pain time and again, driven only by my family’s love for me.

Let’s not mention the past anymore and let bygones be bygones like smoke in the wind. If we keep dwelling on past hurts, do you think we’d still be happy like we are now? Every path we chose was for ourselves. Now, all I want is for my wife to recover. I just want heaven to give me another chance to take care of her, not let her fall any further. Seeing her like this, it truly breaks my heart!

I don’t know what thoughts you hold seeing her like this, but in my heart, she’ll always be my beloved wife, no matter how she changes. She’s done so much for me and waited years. How could I abandon her so easily? It’s not in my nature. I only hope for a chance to not have her taken from me. She needs my care, love, and presence, to give her the warmest embrace, and to support and encourage her at her hardest times.”

”Son, as long as you make your own decisions, we won’t intervene or impose anything on you. I’m sure your decisions will be right, but if you’re not cautious and misjudge people, you’re aware of potential consequences. You’ve stepped into society with a career of your own after all. You’ve reached where you are through hard work and can see things clearer than many. I hope you still act with caution!”

I’ve never understood your wife; I don’t know what kind of girl she truly is, or if she’s like what others perceive her to be. I’m unsure if she matches others’ descriptions. I just hope you think it through; is she truly guiltless in everything she does? Think about who she truly is. Does she have any secrets from you?”

”Mom, what do you mean by this?”

”I don’t mean anything particular; I just hope you see everyone clearly. Of course, I know and believe she’s not that kind of girl. I’ve seen too many women who would do anything to gain a better position. Too many women who, despite their lack of happiness, disrupt others’ lives, causing ruin. I’ve seen far too many. What do we make of them? What words describe them? Everything they do feels dirty, yet they feel joy. To them, it’s a deep-seated comfort, but it just makes them look filthy to others.

If you truly wish to live with her forever, you must be wary of those close to you. You have to watch out for them trying things on you. Such women can’t be described with words. I don’t know how they were raised or who encouraged such actions. Of course, you can’t fully blame such women; you must also consider the men. If a man thinks it’s fine to stroll with other women to spite his wife, the man is just useless — a coward.”

”Mom, don’t worry. No one can surpass my feelings for my wife. The bond we have is unique and mutual. I can’t believe anyone would do such a thing to me. Even if someone tried, I’d stay away. I wouldn’t wager my soul or family happiness. I’m not that foolish. If someday I ended up like that, I’d drag that woman to hell with me. If I can’t have peace, she won’t find freedom in this world either.”

Heaven is fair, granting you chances of happiness repeatedly. If you let them slip away, no matter what you pay later, it’ll be hard to regain past joy and carefree days.
