Chapter 435 - 435 Coexist

435 Coexist

In the classroom, the teacher was teaching a group of special children to understand simple concepts. Li Zecheng’s son sat there in a daze, indifferent.

Li Zecheng tiptoed up to him and sat down beside his son. He protected the child’s shoulder gently with one hand. The child sensed his presence and looked up at him.

Seeing Li Zecheng, the child’s eyes lit up.

Li Zecheng pinched his little face and explained the teacher’s request to him softly.

When the teacher saw Li Zecheng, she originally wanted to chase him out. However, she saw Li Zecheng sitting carefully in the last row with no intention of disturbing the other children. She was touched by his gentle fatherly love and forced a gratified smile at him without stopping him.

Wei Xin lay at the door and secretly looked at Li Zecheng and her son. She had never seen such a loving side of Li Zecheng. He had no patience for children in the past.

Such a serious and responsible Li Zecheng made Wei Xin feel depressed. Why did he come at the wrong time?

After the class ended, Wei Xin rushed over.

However, Li Zecheng carried his son and walked toward the teacher.

When the young female teacher saw Li Zecheng walking towards her, she deliberately stopped and waited for him.

“Teacher, can my son recover from his condition?”

The teacher patiently explained to him, “Although children with cerebral palsy are not as agile as ordinary people, their intelligence can be similar or superior to ordinary people as long as you don’t give up on them.”

The teacher even listed many famous people with cerebral palsy for him. When Li Zecheng heard her say this, he was instantly ashamed.

“I wasn’t a good father in the past. I delayed the child’s rehabilitation training. I won’t do it again. Teacher, can you leave your contact number? I want to hire you as the child’s private teacher. You can name your salary.”

The teacher looked at the group of special children, her eyes filled with reluctance. “I’m sorry. I have many children in this class. I don’t want to give up on them. If you don’t have time to send him over, I can come and tutor him after class.”

“Thank you.” Li Zecheng extended his hand. He had respectful regard toward this ordinary girl.

When the girl shook his hand, Li Zecheng smiled brightly at her. “Goodbye.”

Wei Xin rushed up and roughly took the child from Li Zecheng’s arms. “Li Zecheng, the child is mine. You have no right to make any decisions for his life.”

In her opinion, Li Zecheng was clearly using the child to get close to the teacher.

The teacher smiled elegantly and said, “Miss Wei, your child has a certain tendency to autism. I hope you and the baby’s father can provide him with a harmonious environment.”

Wei Xin said angrily, “I’m already divorced from him. The child follows me. He has no right to make any decisions for the child.”

The teacher’s mouth opened slightly. “Since it’s your family matter, it’s not convenient for me to speak.” The teacher turned around and left.

Li Zecheng looked at Wei Xin with a dark expression. “The child is ours. Wei Xin, I just want to help you share the burden. Why are you so angry?”

Wei Xin looked at him warily and said, “In the past, you didn’t care about children. Why are you suddenly so concerned about children now? Could it be that you’re not good in that areaand can’t have children?”

Li Zecheng was furious.

“Wei Xin, just because I couldn’t figure it out in the past doesn’t mean that I won’t be able to figure it out for the rest of my life. I’ve come to my senses now. I want to take on the obligation of a father and let the child grow up in a warm and harmonious family.”

His tone became more and more agitated. “I don’t want them to become the future me and Ze’en, filled with hatred for their father. That’s all. Wei Xin.”

Wei Xin lost control and roared, “What were you doing earlier? Our family is already broken. Our warm and harmonious home is long gone. Why didn’t you come earlier? Why?” She punched Li Zecheng’s chest angrily.

Li Zecheng said weakly, “Wei Xin, I know you already have a new lover. I won’t force my marriage with you. I just hope you can calm down. Although we’re divorced, we can still coexist peacefully and give the child a complete family.”

Wei Xin glared at him angrily. “You don’t want me? Do you only want the child? Li Zecheng, you wish! I’ve raised the children, and you came to acknowledge them. Why? Are you afraid that no one will support you when you’re old?”

Li Zecheng said, “I don’t need children to support me. I can support them.”

At this moment, Wei Xin’s husband walked over. He said to Wei Xin woodenly, “Honey, Mr. Li is right. He’s the children’s father. We have no right to deprive him of the right to support the children. Since we have two children, why don’t we have one each?”

Wei Xin glared at him fiercely. “Are you starting to despise my children for being a burden?”

The man hurriedly explained, “I’m not. I just think that our family isn’t rich. Giving one child to Mr. Li is also good for the child.”

“I don’t agree,” Wei Xin growled.

The child in her arms trembled in fear. Li Zecheng was afraid that she would scare the child, so he quickly said, “Wei Xin, I don’t have to fight with you for the children. All these years, I’ve seen how good you are to the children. If you’re unwilling to transfer the children’s support to me, I won’t force you. I’ll give you the children’s living expenses every month. I’ll bear all the medical expenses.”

He turned around and begged his children’s stepfather, “It’s not that I don’t want my children. Instead, I love them. You can tell me anything they need. Please don’t hurt them.”

The honest man immediately promised, “Mr. Li, what are you talking about? Don’t worry, I don’t have any children. I’ll raise them as my biological children. It doesn’t matter if you give me money or not. I won’t be cold to them at all.”

Li Zecheng nodded gratefully. “Thank you, Brother.”

Then, he turned around and said to Wei Xin earnestly, “Wei Xin, you have good taste in finding this man. Don’t let him down. At our age, we’re long past the age to live for love. We should learn to live with responsibility. This is the helplessness and grievance that middle-aged people have to endure.”

With that, he took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Wei Xin. “Inside the card is the money for the child’s living expenses.”

With that, he left.

Wei Xin threw herself into the man’s arms and cried heartbreakingly.
