Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 151: Chapter 150: The Two Sides’ Contest

”So you’re saying that my daughter would lie to me about something like this?” An Shuchao glared at Bai Xue with his chest heaving violently, ”All these years, I’ve questioned myself and I’ve treated you and your daughter well. My own daughter has endured hardships, yet I’ve never let your daughter suffer! You... you commit wrongs against me, and now you’re bullying my daughter too!”

”No... not at all!” Bai Xue stubbornly denied, ”I wouldn’t deceive you, Old An! You have to believe me. How have I treated this family, you and An Ping, over the years? From the moment I stepped into this house, how has An Hao treated me? She couldn’t wait for me to leave!”

”I do want you to leave! But I wouldn’t do such despicable things behind your back!”

”Explain to me, explain it clearly today, or I... I’ll kill you!” An Shuchao was an honest man, and with the family’s scandals exposed in front of outsiders, he felt his dignity was tarnished, unable to tolerate it, he lifted his cane and started to strike Bai Xue.

”Mom! Don’t hit my mom!” Bai Yanjiao threw herself forward, blocking Bai Xue, ”If you’re going to hit anyone, hit me! This has nothing to do with my mom. It’s me who couldn’t stand An Hao. I resent her for making me return that ten yuan I borrowed, it bothers me! It has nothing to do with my mom!”

”Get out of my way! Otherwise, I’ll hit you too!” For the first time in many years, An Shuchao lost his temper to such an extent.

Seeing An Hao’s tears, he knew she had suffered too much lately.

She was a stubborn child and had never been one to cry easily.

If she wasn’t in extreme pain, she wouldn’t shed tears.

With the situation having escalated to this point, Bai Xue couldn’t afford to be scared anymore. Her mind raced, desperately thinking of a way out.

She pushed Bai Yanjiao to the side and walked up to An Shuchao, saying, ”I’ve been wronged! You believe An Hao. Don’t you believe me? Who is Li Wangfu? Others may not know, but don’t you, Old An? He bullied you in the production team, and now that you’re resting at home, he’s bullying me, giving me the dirtiest and toughest jobs! He might as well treat me like a mule! Why? Isn’t it because your precious daughter An Hao once asked him for money, and unluckily his wife got a chill because of her, causing her to beat him up. He’s taking out all his anger on me!”

As Bai Xue spoke, she burst into tears, as if she was the one who had suffered a great injustice, to anyone who didn’t know the truth.

An Shuchao didn’t know about An Hao asking Li Wangfu for money. Hearing Bai Xue’s words, he turned his gaze to An Hao: ”My good girl, what’s this all about?”

An Hao was already exhausted, too weak to explain it all over again. She looked into An Shuchao’s eyes and asked him, word by word, ”Dad, I only have one question, do you believe me?”

”I do!” He had seen the hardship An Hao had gone through and her contributions to the family over these days.

He also didn’t want to believe that his daughter would do such a thing to drive Bai Xue away.

But he also couldn’t believe that Bai Xue, who had always treated him so well, would stoop to infidelity.

An Hao nodded wearily, ”As long as you believe me, that’s all that matters. Dad, if you believe me, and if you still want a peaceful life in this house, then divorce Bai Xue. She doesn’t deserve your sacrifices. Even if you owed her husband a favor, you have long since repaid it over these years. If you don’t divorce her, there will never be peace in this house.”
