My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1924: Chapter 1719: Desert Sands

I’ve always hoped that all of this is just the place I guard, knowing that the winter nights are long, yet I still anticipate our encounter.

On this day, Zhang Ni sneaked out alone from home to play outside. Unexpectedly, she fell on the street and ran into Xia Jing. Seeing the little boy fall to the ground, she felt a bit distressed and quickly went over to help him up, not realizing that the person in front of her was her own grandson.

”Little one, why are you here alone? Don’t you know playing outside alone can be very dangerous?”

”Thank you, I accidentally fell here, and thank you for helping me up. There are indeed many kind people in this world. You’re about the same age as my grandma, oh, how wonderful it would be if my grandma could also help me up!”

”Little one, isn’t your grandma here? Where has your grandma gone? Why isn’t she by your side?”

”I don’t know either where my grandma is. My grandma has never been with me since I was born, and I’ve never seen her. I don’t even know where her picture is. Sometimes, I envy those kids who have their grandparents around, but me? My grandparents have never appeared. When I really miss them, I wonder where they are? Why don’t they want to be by my side? I just wish my grandparents could be here like other kids’ grandparents, but such a wish seems so hard in my family. My grandparents don’t care about my parents, nor my great-grandfather, let alone me, their grandson! Do you think maybe I’m not cute enough, so my grandma doesn’t want to see me? But I looked in the mirror, I don’t think I’m that ugly. My dad is even handsomer, but why won’t my grandparents come back? How much I wish they could accompany me for a bit, but this wish is really difficult for us. My parents have asked my grandparents many times, but they just don’t want to come back home. Is it because the atmosphere at home is bad? That’s why they hate everyone here. I am willing to come back and live together. I think our family is really happy, with my parents and my great-grandfather. Obviously, a family can be together happily, why stay outside, unwilling to live with your family? Is it really so bad? I can’t understand why my grandparents abandoned me. Sometimes I just want to prove to the world that I’m the best person. I want my grandparents to know that abandoning me was a big mistake, and I want them to understand that while many things can be abandoned, family should never be abandoned. Family is something money can’t buy, and I hope my grandparents can understand this someday!”

”I didn’t expect such a little child like you could understand so much. If your grandparents knew how open-minded and hardworking you are, they would regret abandoning you. Keep working hard, let your grandparents know what an excellent child you are sooner!”

Xia Jing didn’t know the little boy before her was her grandson, and that the grandparents he spoke of were actually her. She didn’t expect that at last, meeting her grandson would be with such a little boy. At that moment, they were both stunned, realizing fate could be like this. This accidental encounter allowed them to recognize themselves for the first time, and also understand for the first time what kind of person they were in their grandson’s heart, and what kind of psychological damage had been caused.

”Child, do you long for your grandparents?”

”To be honest, I’m not afraid of being laughed at by you, elder. I kind of dislike my grandparents. I don’t understand what reason could make them abandon our family. They don’t care, and I really want to know what I am in their hearts, as their grandson. I wish so much to have seen her the day I was born, but I didn’t. I also hope to have them accompany me on my way to growing up, but they never have, and that makes my heart ache. I’ve thought about hating them, but my parents told me never to hate my grandparents. They said I must be compelled, that there are inevitable hardships. My parents keep persuading me, but I find it hard to accept. I’m just a child, and I wish to have more people love and care for me. Sometimes at school, I see kids with grandparents but no parents, and I have my parents. I just wish I could not be so selfish and have both my grandparents’ and parents’ love. Maybe I’m asking too much, but who doesn’t have little wishes in their heart? My wishes, am I really that unforgivable? I just want my grandparents to come and see me, even just once, and that would satisfy me. Yet they have never come, maybe their hearts have no place for me as their grandson, or maybe they never wanted me in this world from the start. I dislike my grandparents, but I don’t want to trouble my parents. I can only suppress my dislike and smile at my parents. My heart is clearly in pain, but I can’t tell my parents again, as I know they love me dearly and want me to face the world with a positive attitude, not to resent anyone. They are doing this for my own good, but I can’t help but want to hate my grandparents!”

Xia Jing’s heart twisted with pain hearing her grandson say these words, yet it was all helpless!

There are many things, not that I don’t know, but I don’t know where to start.

I never dare to hope that you hear my expectations, let alone wonder if you hear my calls.
