Son and I, you can only choose one of the two
My words were extremely sarcastic and successfully made Shen Yiru frown, but Lou Shaotang's face was filled with pain and heartache.
He took my hand and held the bag in his palm. In a low, hoarse voice, he said, "Wife, I know you're very upset and can't take it anymore. I'm just as upset as you are. "However …"
A portion of Lou Family?
What do you mean?
She wanted Zheng Keer to be small for Lou Shaotang?
Lou Shaotang was also shocked, he quickly reacted and scolded Shen Yiru: "Mom, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Shen Yiru seemed to have already made up her mind, and said: "Shao Tang, you owe Ke Er so much, shouldn't you compensate her?"
"There are many ways to make up for it, definitely not this way!" Lou Shaotang immediately retracted his previous sorrow, his face instantly becoming serious and cold, his attitude resolute and unyielding.
"Whether you agree or not, I've decided." Seeing that Lou Shaotang had rejected him, Shen Yiru became very angry, and his attitude also became unyielding.
Maybe because he felt that the atmosphere was bad, Zheng Keer immediately stood up, "Auntie, Shao Tang, stop arguing. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have come back. I shouldn't have come back. " Her tears flowed even harder than before, and after persuading them, she turned to look at me again, saying, "Tu Ying, I'm sorry. Don't blame Shao Tang, it's not his fault. Heng Heng and I, we will leave now. " She sobbed and walked slowly to Heng Heng's front, pulling his hand, "Heng Heng, let's go."
Heng Heng pulled Zheng Keer's hand away, raised his head and loudly shouted: "No, I'm not leaving! I want to be with Daddy! "
The sound of "Daddy" lashed at my heart like a whip, and I closed my eyes in pain.
However, Shen Yiru, whose face had just turned ashen, laughed out in relief, "Good girl Heng Heng, we're not going anywhere. We're just staying here with Grandma and Father. Ke Er, you're not allowed to leave either. "
When she finished, the living room went silent.
I took a deep breath and opened my eyes. After heard this, he stood on the spot and covered his mouth as he cried. Heng Heng then sat back on the sofa, looking as if he would not leave at all.
Fine, she won't leave, I'll leave!
As if he had seen through my intentions, just as I was about to raise my leg, Lou Shaotang grabbed my wrist and said, "Ke Er, bring Heng Heng back first."
His words were directed at Zheng Keer, but his eyes were fixated on me, and his indifferent tone carried an order that cannot be refuted.
I started slightly. Zheng Keer also did not expect Lou Shaotang to say that. He was stunned for a few seconds and then nodded obediently.
"Father." Heng Heng suddenly stood up from the sofa, his eyes wide as he looked at Lou Shaotang in disbelief.
Shen Yiru was so angry that she flew into a rage as she pointed at my nose, "Shao Tang, are you saying that you don't even want to acknowledge your son because of this woman?! If that's the case, then even I, as your mother, would not want it! "
In the face of Shen Yiru's reprimand and threats, Lou Shaotang was exceptionally calm. He looked at Heng Heng, then looked back at me, stared into my eyes and said: "Heng Heng is my son, I recognize him. But that was all. Nothing else would change. I, Lou Shaotang, have only one wife in my life, and her name is Tu Ying.
His words were as though he had taken an oath for Shen Yiru and the rest, and even more so for me, I know. I would have been moved on any other occasion, but at this moment I was filled with heartache and anger.
"Lou Shaotang, don't think that just because you say that I will be soft-hearted, and accept everything that has happened. I tell you, that's impossible! I, Tu Ying will not become someone's stepmother! " My attitude was tough, but the tears that I had been trying to hold in flowed down uncontrollably. I randomly wiped at it and continued, "Son and I, you can only choose between the two of us."
I know how cruel and unreasonable this multiple choice question is. On one side is kinship, and on the other is love.
However, he had to choose!
I clenched my fists and stared at him, fighting the pain and trepidation in my heart.
Lou Shaotang pursed his lips without saying a word, and the light in his eyes flickered, as unspeakable sorrow filled his handsome face.
"Of course, Shao Tang would choose Heng Heng." Shen Yiru interrupted with a strong tone, urging Lou Shaotang, "Shao Tang, quickly tell me! Tell her to choose Heng Heng. "
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lou Shaotang, waiting for his answer.
My hand tightened and my heart raced.
What would he choose? Is it Heng Heng or me?
I did not dare to go into depth, for fear that his answer would not be as I had hoped.
"Shao Tang!" Seeing that Lou Shaotang was still silent, Shen Yiru panicked.
Lou Shaotang took a deep breath with his eyes closed, his brows knitted tightly, his Adam's apple rolling down his throat, as though he was making a very, very difficult decision.
Moments later, he opened his eyes. His eyes were still filled with pain, and his sorrowful expression had not diminished in the slightest.
"Tu Ying, do you really have the heart to leave me?"
I stared at him in a daze. I couldn't tell what he meant by that.
Was he trying to tell me that he had chosen his son? That's why he asked me tentatively, if he chose his son, would I really leave him?
Is that so?
Is that right?
It must be! Otherwise, he wouldn't ask such a question.
My torn heart was crushed again, and I was paralyzed with pain. Clenching my fists and suppressing my tears, I raised my chin arrogantly and said with uncompromising determination, "If you choose your son, then I will withdraw."
As if he had already expected that I would say this, Lou Shaotang was not surprised in the slightest. The corner of his mouth hooked into a very shallow smile, as if he was laughing at himself, but at the same time, it was also a pathetic laugh.
"Then get out of here, don't stay here and get in the way!" Shen Yiru shouted, and could not wait for me to get lost.
I looked at her disdainfully as well, staring straight at Lou Shaotang.
Because he never gave a clear answer, and I'm not willing to accept it. This is my personality. I feel that even if I die, I must at least understand it.
"Lou Shaotang, who exactly did you choose?" I pressed him.
"You." Lou Shaotang answered without hesitation. Although his voice was quiet and hoarse, his tone was firm. "I chose you."
My pupils suddenly constricted as I was stunned.
Everyone was stunned.
"Shao Tang, what nonsense are you spouting? Are you crazy?! " Shen Yiru was the first to react. Whether it was due to disbelief or anger, her tone of voice had changed.
Lou Shaotang ignored her, looked straight at me, and continued in a hoarse voice: "Tu Ying, I chose you because I love you, I can't leave you. And will you continue to love me, a man who has become irresponsible? "
I, who had just recovered from my daze, shuddered violently at his words. I was speechless as I looked at him.
Yes, I won out on this multiple choice, but at the same time I also succeeded in forcing Lou Shaotang into a man who abandoned his own flesh and blood.
My mind was mixed, complicated. He was both pleased that he had chosen me and a little ashamed of his own cruelty.
I love him, no doubt about it. It was because of love that she could not accept the fact that he and Zheng Keer had a son.
What should he do? What should I do?
Contradictory, too contradictory.
My mind was in a mess, and my heart, which had been firm, suddenly wavered.
"Bang ~ ~ ~"
A dull sound suddenly broke the tense atmosphere.
"Ke Er!"
Shen Yiru and Heng Heng cried out at the same time.
Lou Shaotang and I were also shocked, we turned to look, only to see Zheng Keer fainting on the ground.
