He did not speak in a harsh tone, and there was even a faint smile in his voice. However, his words made Mrs. Xiao's eyes turn red.
It was said that mother and son were united, but she was drifting further and further away from her son …
She regretted it for the first time in her life. She regretted it for half of her life because of her willfulness.
She said that she wanted to pursue freedom, pursue her dreams, and live a carefree life. She also thought that she would follow her heart for the rest of her life, without any restrictions or burdens. Wherever she went, home would be her home.
She really thought so …
Mrs. Xiao turned her body sideways and quietly raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
Her figure was slender and fragile, revealing the loneliness of an old woman, but Xia Jinyuan was unmoved.
"Mrs. Xiao, you've lived for yourself for decades. You can continue to live for yourself, but please don't treat our Family Xia as a part of your willful and reckless behavior.
"Family Xia has nothing to do with you, and you have nothing to do with our Family Xia."
Xia Jinyuan's tone was cold throughout the entire conversation, and there was no hint of anger in his voice. The more he spoke, the more upset Mrs. Xiao, who was crying, felt as if her heart was about to explode.
She listened to her son's emotionless criticism in a daze. Even though she had mentally prepared herself before coming, when faced with it … she still felt sad.
Retribution, this was retribution!
Wiping away the tears in her eyes, Madam Xiao faced her son again. Looking at his maturing face, Madam Xiao's heart ached.
Her son had grown up and matured. Why would he still need her concern?
She did not care about him in the past, and he did not need her concern in the future.
She originally thought that she was free, but in the end, she realized that she was actually trapped in a trap of her own making.
"I didn't want to disturb you, but I can't see your father, and I can't see you either, so I can only come and disturb you. I'm sorry to have troubled you again. "
Mrs. Xiao, who was not thirsty, clenched her teacup tightly, as if searching for the courage to continue speaking. "You're right. I've always wanted others to fulfill my wishes, but I've never thought of fulfilling others' wishes. It was like this in the past, and it's still the same even at this age."
"I regret it too, but it's useless. Back then, I planted the bitter fruit, and I had to swallow it no matter how painful it was. Ah Yuan, I owe you an apology. I'm sorry, I'm sorry … I'm sorry … "
If time could go back twelve years, Xia Jinyuan might have been affected when he heard the apology. But now … there was no reaction. There was no reaction at all.
Jun Yan smiled faintly at him. "You don't have to apologize. I don't think you're wrong. You've chosen the path you like. On the other hand, we chose to let go and allow you to pursue yourself in peace. There are no grievances between us, so why do you need to apologize to me? "
"There's no enmity between us, and we don't owe each other anything. You don't have to apologize. Our Family Xia didn't take what you did to heart. You don't have to feel guilty. "
"And I implore you not to come to the old mansion in the future. Old Master and Old Madam are already old, and they're living one day at a time. As the younger generation, we just want the elderly to be able to live peacefully in their old age. We don't want the elderly to worry about us anymore, and we don't want them to worry about irrelevant people."
"So, I implore you not to come again. Just live like before. You can continue to live a free life, and we can continue to live as a family. We won't disturb each other."
