Chapter 1112 - 963: Already Saw Through Everything
"Dad, Mom, do you really think I’m that foolish? Do you really think I don’t know everything that’s been going on? I’ve actually seen everything you’ve done with my own eyes. I chose to say nothing, to pretend it never happened, as if I had never seen it in the first place. But why are you so unsatisfied?
I’ve seen your actions so clearly, so thoroughly, yet I blame you for nothing, because I know that the things you care about are also the things I care about. I don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble that would make our relationship increasingly awkward."
Zhang Zhentian didn’t understand what his son meant by these words today. Could it be that he had already seen through everything and chose to say nothing?
Zhang Yichen, although he had long known that his parents’ relationship wasn’t entirely harmonious, he never thought that all the problems actually stemmed from his mother. He doesn’t believe that someone as seemingly loyal to love as his mother could commit such heartless things to his father behind his back. All he ever wanted was something simple, a peaceful life. When he saw his mother looking at him with expectation time and time again, his heart broke. After all, that is his mother, who used to be everything to him. She will always be his mom, and he has no way not to care, not to handle these matters cleanly for her.
"Don’t talk about my mother in that tone. My mother is so loyal to you, I don’t believe she would do such things to you. There must be some misunderstanding between you two. If there is a misunderstanding, I hope you can clear everything up without hurting each other in this way, and certainly not hurt the family. No one in this family owes you anything. When you do such things, have you considered how your family feels? How much pain we are in? You only care about your immediate interests, your innermost thoughts, but you neglect that your family needs this care too.
Have you considered how sad, how upset your family would be when they hear you say these things? You are their family; no matter what, they won’t believe you would do such things or say such words. Every word you say may seem unintentional to you, but in others’ eyes, they’re very real. They have no way to pretend all this never happened.
No matter what my mother did wrong in the past, her current attitude shows she’s genuinely willing to spend her life with you. Why won’t you try to accept all her strengths and flaws? There must be forgiveness. Between husband and wife, the biggest thing is forgiveness. If neither of you has the courage to forgive, living together only brings harm to each other, not even the basic happiness can be given."
"Grandpa, although I’m a younger generation, I have no reason to make any evaluations about your and Grandma’s affairs, but I agree with what my father said. The most important thing between a couple is tolerance. If you don’t even have the courage to be tolerant, do you really think that everything you’ve experienced living together all these years is worth it?
Everything you do, you may never have considered from the other’s perspective, but now I hope you can try to see it from the other’s point of view. Even just a little bit is the most beautiful sentiment in the world for both sides, isn’t it? If you keep making mistakes repeatedly, not knowing how to face each other, life together will only be painful and difficult for you both.
I believe that everything you and Grandma have experienced over the years is real. It’s something only the two of you can feel, memories that belong only to you two, memories that we family members can’t participate in or interfere with. Everything you have gone through should be worthy of that time when you relied on each other for survival. Being able to depend on each other in the hardest times is not easy. Seeing each other as more important than your own life during the most painful moments is even harder. Why, then, hurt the one who is most loyal to you time and time again?
