"I know that everyone has the right to choose how they want to live, and I know that I shouldn't impose my thoughts on them. For my own sake, I didn't want them to get a divorce, but … I really don't want them to get a divorce either. I feel that as long as Dad and Mom are together, I still have a home. If they're not together, I'll have no home at all …
"If I had listened to them and looked for you and coaxed you, they might not have ended up like this … But I don't want them to … You don't know, but when they look for me, they never ask me how I'm doing in school. As soon as they open their mouths, they'll talk about you … I feel that the reason they've treated me so well all these years is because of your family. If not for your family, would they have abandoned me a long time ago?"
Perhaps it was because it was a little difficult for her to talk about her family's situation, she stuttered as she spoke.
From the start to the end, Lin Jiage didn't interrupt her at all. He simply sat quietly by the side and listened attentively.
Initially, her parents treated her very well, and she thought that she had a blissful family even though they weren't that wealthy. But later on, when she learned of their true thoughts, she couldn't accept it and felt terrible. Later on, she even said that she didn't want to be a money tree. She didn't think that she was important to her parents at all. In order for her to marry well, her father even went as far as to feign illness …
In truth, he had already learned a lot about these things from Leng Nuan. But now that she was telling him about it, it was as if he was listening to a business proposal. He listened to every single word she said in great detail.
She spoke a lot, and it was likely that she had vented out all of the discomfort she had been suppressing in her heart. In the end, her tone had clearly become much more relaxed, and the aggrieved look on her face had dissipated by more than half.
"It's been so many years since they've separated. I should be happy, shouldn't I? No matter what, I'm the only one who's left now that I've grown up. At the very least, it's better than when I was young. I should really be happy, shouldn't I? "
As she spoke, she turned to Lin Jiage and squeezed out a smile. She was probably tired from talking too much, so she didn't say anything else after asking that question.
However, her final words struck a chord in Lin Jiage's heart. For a moment, Lin Jiage didn't know how he should respond to her words.
He looked at her little face that was forcing a smile, and his throat felt like it was being choked by something. It was very painful.
A moment later, Lin Jiage forcefully suppressed the soreness in his heart and moved his lips. "That can't be … How could you be the only one left? Even if you were the only one left, I would still accompany you."
I will also accompany you …
Hearing those simple words, Shi Yao's eyes reddened once more.
"Why are you crying again?" Lin Jiage asked anxiously.
"No …" Shi Yao shook her head. She waited for her emotions to stabilize a little before asking once more, "What do you think I should do in the future?"
Lin Jiage reached out to stroke Shi Yao's fringe as he asked gently, "What do you want to do?"
"I don't know …" Shi Yao replied softly before adding, "… If they really divorce, I don't want to stay at home anymore …"
"Where do you want to live?"
