Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Li Hang, what’s wrong with you? What are you actually trying to say?” Xie Xuning asked.
“Nothing is up with me.” Li Hang retorted after a brief cough.
“Yes, you are acting weird.”
Xie Xuning was in an excellent mood today, knowing that his daughter was improving and doing fine already. He didn’t mind having this conversation with Li Hang. “Are you jealous of my relationship with my wife?”
“Of course not!” Li Hang replied, lying.
Him? Jealous? That’s impossible! He’s not jealous.
“It’s just that I always think that the two of you have such a good relationship even though you’ve been apart for so many years; and when you’re together, you’re both doing your hardest to make up to each other, that’s all.”
“Haha!” Xie Xuning gave a scornful laugh in response to what Li Hang said.
It was just a foolish idea.
Li Hang, on the other hand, did not find it amusing in the least.
“Xuning, do you think what I said was funny? But I don’t think I’m being funny. During the time when you were apart from Ye Linlang, you still thought of each other. If you had stayed together with your parent’s disapproval, your marriage would have been in shackles. You’d only fight and quarrel every day, and no matter how much love you had for each other, it would only vanish and go away.”
“Don’t you think there was also love between me and Wu Tong? We had that too.” Li Hang responded. “There was a time when Wu Tong and I were in love, and we were happy.”
Xie Xuning did not hesitate to strike Li Hang’s heart with a merciless blow.
“But you two are divorced.”
Li Hang raised his voice and argued, “The divorce wasn’t my idea.”
“I think Wu Tong is doing pretty well after the divorce. Men like you are idiots; when she catered to you, you felt like you were the king of the world, and everyone wanted to be with you. The world does not owe you anything, Li Hang; and Wu Tong’s life does not revolve around you.”
A cold laugh erupted from Li Hang.
“The only reason you can say that is because you have never walked in my shoes. Imagine what it is like to be caught between a mother and a wife.” he retorted.
“I won’t do the same thing in the same situation as you did,” Xie Xuning replied.
“A woman who abandoned the family that raised her just to marry you and accept your parents as her own—you should love this woman with everything you’ve got. Because for this woman, your parents were complete strangers. If it weren’t for you, they would have never known each other.”
Li Hang wanted to refute but did not know exactly how to make his argument, but Xie Xuning was not finished yet.
“The attitude of a man affects the attitude of his parents towards his wife. Because your attitude has been ambiguous from the beginning, your mother has always believed that she can manipulate your wife at will. In actuality, you have never stood up for her. As Wu Tong’s husband, you have never protected her.”
Li Hang really felt that Xie Xuning was making light of things. It’s understandable that you would say that since you haven’t dealt with conflicts between in-laws.”
“Have you forgotten? Back then, my parents didn’t want me to marry Linlang either, but I married Linlang anyway. Do you know what I was thinking when I decided to marry Linlang? If Linlang and my parents were to stand on opposite sides one day, I would definitely stand with Linlang. It was with that kind of resolve that I married her.”
