Chen Xueru had a pitiful background, her parents having passed away early. In order to avoid saddening her, Tang Shuwên usually didn't ask about her parents and wasn’t well-informed about them. During the period of their marriage, he hadn't paid respects to his in-laws either. As the New Year was approaching, it was time for him to go.
In a's city, there was a custom that daughters who were married would have to bring their husbands back to their parents' home for one day before the New Year. Although her parents had passed away, she could still pay respects by offering incense.
Chen Xueru looked at Tang Shuwên in surprise as if she was very surprised that he would propose to visit her parents. A wave of sadness washed over Tang Shuwên's heart, but he acted nonchalantly and asked, "What's wrong Is there something inappropriate"
"Oh, nothing," Chen Xueru lowered her head. Their marital life had gradually improved; it wasn't filled with grand gestures or solemn vows. The resentment before their marriage seemed to have vanished. Their current life was very tranquil.
They would be together for the rest of their lives, right
She started to believe that they were one family.
In her heart, she treated Tang Si and Wen Lan as family members, but her feelings towards Tang Shuwên had always been complicated. She didn't dare to invest too much in fear of disappointment, nor did she dare to regard him as family.
Over the years, she realized one thing: don’t place too much hope on outsiders.
One has to rely on oneself for everything.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Therefore, she had gotten used to not hoping for anything from anyone; without anticipation, there would be no disappointment.
But now, saying that she didn't have any expectations was a lie.
"We’re free these days, so why don’t we go sweep the graves together with Xiao Nian tomorrow" Tang Shuwên suggested. Chen Xueru nodded; whenever her son was mentioned, she would agree to anything.
Tang Shuwên knew very well where her weak spot lay and also how to get her agreement.
Undoubtedly, he is a smart, considerate, and gentle man.
In the eyes of women, such a man is an undeniably perfect prince charming. If Tang Shuwen could forget their unpleasant pre-marriage experiences, he would be a ten out of ten. She should feel fortunate that after all she has been through, she still encountered him.
As they were getting close to home, Tang Shuwen's phone rang. Chen Xiru noticed him frown and say, "I know," before hanging up, at which point his eyes darkened as if he was angry.
Chen Xiru rarely saw him get angry; she occasionally witnessed this during their engagement but never after they got married.
They arrived at the Tang residence.
Tang Shuwen said, "Xiru, I have something urgent to attend to and will need to leave. You go home first."
"Alright!" Chen Xiru smiled; she thought it might be work-related and did not say more. She unbuckled her seatbelt to get out of the car when Tang Shuwen suddenly grabbed her hand. Surprised, she turned to look at him.
“What’s wrong” Chen Xiru asked.
Tang Shuwen tightened his grip and a trace of unease flashed across his eyes. “Xiru, if someone tells you something one day, you must verify it with me first and ask for my opinion before making any assumptions on your own. Understand”
Though Chen Xiru did not know what he was referring to, she still nodded in agreement. Tang Shuwen watched her enter the house before driving off.
When Chen Xiru returned home, both of Tang’s parents were in the living room. Seeing that only she had come back, Wen Lan asked, “Where is Shuwen”
"He said he has something urgent to attend to and will be late coming back." Chen Xiru replied as she walked over. Xiao Nian was still the same; despite seeing a psychologist, there were no significant improvements. Everyone had run out of solutions; Xiao Nian rejected treatment and they were heartbroken.
"Xiao Nian, have you missed your mom" Chen Xiru kissed him several times on the cheek. His gaze was empty and his expression vacant; her heart ached. Wen Lan comforted her to take it slow and not rush things, and Chen Xiru nodded in agreement.
It could only be so.
Outside the Zhao family villa, Zhao Yuning waited for Tang Shuwen with longing. He saw her standing at the door in a pink long coat from afar, his expression turning somber and unreadable.
As soon as he got off the car, Zhao Yuning ran over and hugged him tightly, tears falling.
"Shuwen, I miss you so much," Zhao Yuning said through her tears, holding him contentedly as if he were her most precious treasure that she didn't want to let go of, cherishing him greatly.
Tang Shuwen allowed her to hug him and did not push her away.
Zhao Yuning held on for a while before slowly letting go of him. Her tear-streaked face was heartbreakingly charming, the allure making it easy to trigger men's protective instincts, as if time had reversed before his eyes.
He felt like he had returned to high school times.
In those days, he was the prince charming that swept across the entire school. It was said that the female lead of the liberal arts class was hard to pursue, with lofty aspirations. He and a gang of buddies deliberately approached Zhao Yuning in order to win her over.
At first, it was indeed just for fun, but later on he became serious about it.
It could not be denied that she was very beautiful.
Yet after seeing many beauties throughout the years, why did he still think of her so fondly He couldn't figure out the reason himself.
Perhaps it was because of this weak and gentle quality of hers, making others reluctant to hurt her.
Therefore, once she showed any affection, they reconciled.
"Shuwen, I went for a prenatal checkup today. The doctor said that the baby is very healthy, and we already know it's a boy," Zhao Yuning sweetly said, a touch of bashfulness on her cheeks.
Tang Shuwen hummed in acknowledgment but remained silent. A boy.
A son, Xiao Nian... The image of Xiao Nian's blank face flashed through Tang Shuwen's mind, his gaze softening slightly. He didn't know when the child would recover; the doctor said there was a possibility that he might suddenly get better or that it wouldn't happen at all.
Snow is very sad and has secretly shed many tears.
"Shuwen, what's wrong Aren't you happy because it's a boy" Zhao Yuning looks slightly panicked and grasps his arm anxiously. Tang Shuwen looks down, shakes his head, then suddenly smiles to herself, saying, "I know you must be very happy."
Is he really happy
He can't quite describe his feelings; he doesn’t feel particularly joyful.
It's as if hearing about something that doesn't concern him at all—how could it make him happy
"This is the only thing you wanted to tell me" Tang Shuwen asks. Zhao Yuning raises her head, surprise flickering across her face before sorrow takes over. She looks heartbroken. Tang Shuwen sighs and says, "Yuning, this tactic doesn't always work on me. I'm no longer that eighteen-year-old boy."
These years have hardened his heart and made him ruthless; he's seen enough of life and death. Unless it’s the woman he loves, the pitiful looks of a woman won’t move him.
The way he feels about Zhao Yuning is very complicated.
He both loves her and resents her. This reconciliation has some element of revenge because this was the first time Tang Shuwen had been abandoned by someone else.
But after they reconciled, he could feel her sincerity, so he thought to put past grievances aside—those days were long gone when both of them were young and foolish.
Couples breaking up is a normal occurrence.
If it weren't for Chen Xiru, perhaps he would have married her. After all, they had loved each other for so many years.
But now...
"What do you mean by that" Zhao Yuning trembles and asks fearfully, her heart filled with unease, a pain she can't put into words spreading through her.several neurology experts to Rome to collaborate on researching Kaka's condition.Baye is not a person who makes decisions in isolation; he is confident in his medical expertise but does not act arroga...
