“I know what my daughter is like…”
“If you hadn’t gone too far, she wouldn’t have made up her mind to divorce you,” Xu Xuefeng said faintly.
“Dad, I know… I’m not worthy of being a husband, and I’m not worthy of being a father.” Jiang Bei lowered his head. His eyes were filled with emotions. He hated himself.
However, Xu Xuefeng ignored Jiang Bei’s words. He seemed to have thought of something as he looked at the ceiling and spoke slowly.
“Xinrong, this child… I don’t know which one of us she took after, but she’s stubborn. She’s always been like this since she was young. If she’s determined to do something, no one could stop her. When she grew up, she didn’t seem to get any better.”
“But later on, she married you. With Wanwan, I think it’s time for her to change a little.” Xu Xuefeng’s face looked worried.
“When your parents passed, you became like a different person. Actually, I can understand it. If my wife and I were gone, wouldn’t Xiaoqiang also be affected?” Xu Xuefeng turned his head and asked.
“Dad, what are you talking about! You’re fine now. You can go home soon!” Xu Xiaoqiang said, upset.
Xu Xuefeng shook his head and didn’t say anything more ominous.
“I almost… Last night, I was thinking about both of you and Wanwan.”
He looked at Jiang Bei with a serious gaze. “Jiang Bei, I know you want to change, but there’s no point showing us. The one spending her life with you is Xinrong. Do you still need me to teach you this principle?”
“Are you able to convince her if she’s made up her mind? It’s not that easy.”
“She’s had a lot of reservations over the past few years. How many times has Xiaoqiang tried to persuade her to get a divorce? She never listened. She knows in her heart what would happen to Wanwan if she gets a divorce She’s still so young.”
“What if she gets bullied when she goes to school? When she meets someone in the future and they find out that she came from a single-parent household, what should we do if they reject her?”
“She would become a child who lacks fatherly love. What if she becomes a bad person?”
“We have to consider all of this carefully. Marriage is not child’s play, especially when you two have a child.”
“In the past, I thought that divorce was nothing. One person could also take care of the child. But when it’s about to happen, how could I not think about it?”
Xu Xuefeng’s breathing gradually became heavier like a smoker who was showing withdrawal symptoms, but he endured it.
He swallowed his saliva, and his expression became somewhat sorrowful again.
“But Xinrong has decided to divorce you, so we won’t try to persuade her anymore. It’s not right for us to forgive you and help you get Xinrong back. You’re the one who did all these things. You have to rely on yourself to save your family, right?”
“I want you and Xinrong to live a peaceful life even though I don’t like you because you’re Xinrong’s husband and Wanwan’s father. Jiang Bei, do you understand?”
Jiang Bei slowly raised his head, and two streams of tears appeared on his face.
Although Xu Xuefeng’s words were calm, every word was like a hammer to his heart.
There was no point regretting his actions. He had to think of a way to save his marriage and make his family whole again.
Xu Xuefeng’s words, which had never been said before, were not without reason. It was Jiang Bei’s actions today that made him feel that this family that was about to be broken could still be saved.
After experiencing such a life-and-death event, Xu Xuefeng did a lot of thinking. Ultimately, his two children were the ones he could not let go of.
“Dad… I understand. I made many mistakes all these years. I will work hard to get Xinrong back. I will support this family.” Jiang Bei’s breathing was a little quick.
At this moment, he was like an ignorant child who regretted his mistakes.
However, Jiang Bei did not get the forgiveness he had hoped for. He was not worthy of Xu Xuefeng’s forgiveness.
Although Xu Xuefeng would not try to persuade Xu Xinrong to divorce him, he would not stop her either. He did not forgive Jiang Bei. He just did not want to see his family fall apart just like that.
A faint smile finally appeared on Xu Xuefeng’s face. He nodded his head gently. “You guys are grown up now. Wanwan is already three. You shouldn’t let us worry about everything. You have to do everything on your own.”
“Dad, don’t worry… I’ll get this family back. I’ll let Xinrong live a good life.” Jiang Bei nodded his head heavily.
“Okay, I’ve said enough. I’m tired. You two can go out first.” Xu Xuefeng waved his hand and said tiredly.
When Jiang Bei and Xu Xiaoqiang sat on the long bench in the corridor, the atmosphere suddenly fell silent again.
After a long while, Xu Xiaoqiang could not help but ask, “Jiang Bei, what you said yesterday… is it true? You earned 15,000 a day from selling fish at the park?”
“Do you still plan to do this in the future?”
