My Alleged Husband

Chapter 656 - 635: Gone with the Wind_1

Zhang Yichen actually knew better than anyone else that once some things happened, there was no way to change the final outcome. Yet, he really couldn’t accept it. Why was it that despite his many efforts, time and time again, he ultimately couldn’t achieve the outcome he desired?

People say that fate is fair, but was fate making an exception for him? Why was it so unfair to him? All he wanted was a simple and happy life. Yet, why did it end up like this? Each step to this day had been so difficult. Why had no one ever considered things from his perspective? Yichen had shed so much sweat and so many tears to reach the pinnacle of his life, but not a single person regretted taking his efforts for granted. Everyone just felt his hard work was expected. Was he really that unappreciated?

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart. He really had given so much, yet his parents were unwilling to come back to him, including his family members who argued with him time and again. This was simply the biggest shadow in his heart. No one suffers the love of their own family for no reason, and no one can be indifferent to criticism from others time and again. He was a living person too; he had his own thoughts and brain. He knew what he should and shouldn’t do. So why were there still people reminding him time and again?

"Grandpa, I know better than anyone about some matters, and I also know how hard it wasn’t easy for me to achieve what I have today. I made it step by step. Even if the whole world doesn’t know, you must, because you’re the one who watched me grow up. You know how much effort I put in, and how difficult each step was. When everyone else was happily playing, I was undergoing training like a devil, desperately making myself stronger so that one day, my mom and dad would come back to me willingly, and not leave time and again, because their son was incapable. But now that I’ve accomplished so much, why are my mom and dad still unwilling to be by my side? In their eyes, am I really that useless as their own son?"

"I know, Grandpa, the moment you speak, you’re ready to comfort me. But I don’t want you to comfort me time and again. Some matters will be exposed sooner or later. Scars, even if they have scabbed over, will be torn open time and again. Why should I bury all matters in my heart and endure that excruciating pain alone? I also know my parents have never considered the feelings of their own son. In their eyes, I’m nothing. All I want is an ordinary life. They can’t give me a happy family, but why do they have to destroy time and again, the life that I could have happily lived? I don’t understand, what reasons do parents have to loathe their own child to the bone, to treat me like this time and again!"

"Child, you shouldn’t think about some matters this way. You should understand that any parent will worry about their child, no matter how useless or hopeless the child may be. As parents, worrying for their child is instinctive. They won’t give up this instinct because of your uselessness; it’s an unchangeable instinct. You should try to understand why your parents chose to leave you. Regardless of the decisions they made in the past, now that you’ve achieved so much, why plunge yourself into the abyss of pain again and again, making them feel guilty over and over because of you? Isn’t it better for everyone to live happily? Why keep hurting each other time and again?"
