Chapter 1094 - 945: The Regret Heard_2
"Yes, child, Mom and Dad really know now, we regret it. If you can truly forgive us, we would be endlessly grateful. But if you really can’t forgive us, there’s nothing we can do, because the decision is ultimately in your hands. If you choose to forgive, we would be deeply thankful, but we understand that some things don’t end in forgiveness just because we wish for it. We’ve done too many things in the past."
"We’ve also caused you the greatest pain, making it impossible for you to ever truly be happy in this lifetime. But do you know? As parents, who wouldn’t want to consider their child’s future? Yet, we found ourselves at a dead end, and we must continue down this path for the rest of our lives. If we ever feel regret, this situation will become even more terrible, do you understand? Mom and Dad are not cold-hearted. Everything we’ve done, though indeed selfish, was ultimately for you. Perhaps you won’t believe it, because we’ve deceived you too many times. But do you know? Every word Mom and Dad say is the truth. We sincerely want you to stay by our side and never abandon you for the rest of your life!"
"We always thought our mistakes wouldn’t hurt you much. But we never imagined that these mistakes would weigh on your mind for so many years. Each mistake was a flaw of ours as parents with no one else to blame. We realized that these mistakes will bring us different results. In the end, what we got in return for everything we’ve given is an uncertain answer. Our hearts are still pained by this."
Ran Zhihan really didn’t want to keep seeing his husband and in-laws continue arguing. It would only make everyone more awkward. He decided to step in with some fair words and also advise his husband on what should be done. Some things should stop at the right point without being too excessive. This would only make everyone uncomfortable and embarrassed. Why make each other feel so bad?
"Yichen, please stop saying these things to Mom and Dad. Deep down, you’re more fragile than anyone else. You should know how painful it is for you to say these things. Inside, you’re very conflicted and struggling. You don’t know if your decisions are right or wrong. You’re betting your fate against the heavens, hoping for just treatment. You want the heavens to bless you, don’t you? Your parents truly love you. But do you know? If they proved they loved you, would life still have meaning? What if one day they indeed proved it and you lost them forever, would it be worth it?"
"Some things are enough to be said without needing others to strive for proof. Otherwise, they’ll feel uneasy and live in hardship, again and again. You don’t want your parents to suffer, nor do you want them to live in pain and difficulty. You understand clearly that once some things happen, there’s no way to turn back. You’re just testing how much your parents can endure! That’s all you aim for as well. If your parents really have to prove their love to the whole world, can true happiness still exist in this world?"
"You’ve never thought about what kind of life you really want. Have you considered what kind of pain such decisions can bring you? Have you ever truly thought it through? Constantly making impulsive decisions without considering the consequences will only bring endless guilt on yourself. If someday they were hurt in trying to prove something to you, how can you still be happy or joyful, given that they’re your parents? In fact, from the depths of your heart, you don’t want them to have to prove any of this at all. You’re just trying to balance your inner feelings."
"I have to admit, you truly understand me—I’m proud that you’re my wife. But my parents never understood me. They don’t know what I mean by my words or the kind of things I want to do. They can’t feel my internal pain or understand the love I once craved. They only know their own decisions, which will never change the outcome. They’ve never thought about changing for me, you know? After hearing what you said, I’m really grateful—grateful to Heaven for giving me the fairest treatment, which is allowing me to marry you as my wife and be blessed with such a good son. Perhaps my greatest mistake in this life was having such parents, but I can’t choose who my parents are because these were all destined. Fate destined me to lose my parents and to be with the one I love most, you. This has taught me that Heaven is indeed fair. It gave me something, but it also took something away. I’ve lived a very tiring life, but having you makes it so much lighter because you are the one who understands me best."
"Even if the whole world abandons me, I would never abandon you. Even if I lost the whole world, having you by my side would be enough for me. I can retreat to the mountains with you, accompany our child as he grows, helping him live a carefree life. Letting him know that the most important thing in this world isn’t anything else but family. As long as he has family, he doesn’t need anything else. He can understand what kind of ending all this will eventually bring, what kind of benefit it will bring—these are the most important things!"
