My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1389 - 1208: That Moment_4

Ran Zhihan’s heart is in anguish, why must such things happen to her? She just wants to live with her family, but why is it so difficult? Is all this punishment because she betrayed her family? She never thought such things would happen, all she wanted was a stable and happy life. Was everything caused by her mistakes, and should others bear the blame for what she did?

No matter how incapable she feels, regardless of how unsightly her past life was, or what kind of pain and heart-wrenching injury she endured, she can never escape these things. What must be faced will always be faced. No one can hide from their past, so maybe only by facing everything candidly can all this become less awkward. From any angle, they have no reason to keep covering for her; she must choose to face it openly, possibly leading to a different journey.

"Grandpa, today I’ve mainly come to tell you that I might have some matters that require traveling and will not be back for a while. I’m entrusting the family’s matters to you. You know what your grandson likes to eat, and without me here, he can have peace. I don’t want anything to disturb his work anymore. I want to go unwind a bit, and at the same time, I hope to see how big this world is. I hope you can allow me."

Old Master Zhang knew instantly from these words that things were not as simple as he imagined. Could it be that the couple is having some conflict? Or is there some untold secret not shared with the old fool? Seeing his granddaughter-in-law so upset, could there really be problems between the couple?

"Zhihan, is there something wrong between you and Yichen? Why are you suddenly telling Grandpa these words? Do you know? Hearing you say this makes my heart really sad. Grandpa has always treated you like a child of the family. If you suddenly leave, how can Grandpa bear it? Grandpa is used to having you in the home, but suddenly leaving would leave Grandpa lonely in the house!"

"Grandpa, this is nobody’s fault but mine for doing wrong. I want to go out and clear my mind, and think about what mistakes I’ve made. I know you’ve always cared for me, but I hope you understand that once mistakes happen, you have to take responsibility. I’ve just had a big fight with my husband; I can’t live with him anymore because I can’t understand why he lets his son experience all the pains he himself endured. Shouldn’t parents hope their children grow up happily?"

I don’t know how to comfort my son anymore. Watching him train desperately every day pains me as his mother; no one understands. I just hope my son can grow up happy, without any torment, not filled with hatred, and not blinded by it.

Grandpa, do you understand my inner pain? I really don’t know what to do. Does it require my leaving for these things to peacefully settle? I really don’t know what to say; I just want my son to have a happy childhood. Everyone’s childhood is only once, and because children lack happiness in it, they grow up to face hardships, just to prove themselves to those they care about. I don’t want my son to live painfully like that. He deserves a happy childhood; he’s just a child, what wrong has he done, why should adult affairs trouble a child?"

Old Master Zhang sighed. He knew such reasoning indeed makes sense, but he is not comfortable stepping in. Everyone chooses a different path, leading to varied results. Having chosen this path, what reason is there to blame others? The path oneself chooses is inescapable; one can’t hide from it, so you must face it head-on, right?
