Chapter 295 Your Father
“Song Wanxing!” Zhao Xiaojuan softly uttered this long-unheard name.
"Ah! Him? Why is he back? Is he alone or with someone?" Gu Zhaodi grabbed Zhao Xiaojuan's hand worriedly. How humiliating and devastating it was for Xiaojuan when her husband eloped with another woman.
She knew that Xiaojuan had finally gotten over it and was busy taking care of her three children. Just when things were starting to get a little better, that man came back. Wasn't this just disrupting her life?
"What are you thinking? Is it still possible..." Gu Zhaodi was one of the few people who knew they were divorced. She wondered if Song Wanxing left that woman and turned over a new leaf, was it possible for the two of them to rekindle their relationship? After all, they had three children together, and Xiaojuan used to treat him with all her heart.
"I want to leave here!" Zhao Xiaojuan stopped Gu Zhaodi from continuing. They could never get back together; she felt disgusted by the thought of them being together again.
"Huh? Leaving? Where are you planning to go?" Gu Zhaodi was a little confused by her best friend's train of thought.
“This is his home. I’m a divorced wife, so naturally I should leave. The children are all grown up now, and I should let go.” Zhao Xiaojuan’s words seemed to be an answer to Gu Zhaodi, but weren’t they also a message to herself?
Gu Zhaodi quickly tried to dissuade her: "Xiaojuan, your mother-in-law and the others won't agree. Don't be anxious. Let's see what they decide. Maybe Song Wanxing is just coming back to visit. Isn't your mother-in-law's condition very bad?"
Zhao Xiaojuan remained silent. She didn't say that Song Wanxing looked like a beggar today; after all, he was a father of three, so she should save him some face.
Judging from his appearance, he must have been unable to make a living outside, which is why he came home. He probably won't be leaving again.
"Xiaojuan, why don't you call Tingnan tomorrow? That child has been close to you since she was little. She has a lot of ideas and might be able to help you." Gu Zhaodi didn't know what to do, so she thought of Song Tingnan. This child was smart and precocious. She helped her and her daughter resolve their conflict when she was so young.
“Hmm!” Zhao Xiaojuan also thought it was worth asking Tingnan. She had Song Yanchu by her side, who was also a person with her own ideas.
As Song Yali stepped into the house, she said, "Uncle, my mom went..." Not seeing anyone, her aunt came out and said, "Yali, they are in your grandma's room."
Yali has always respected her uncle as her father. She also knows that her uncle has always been the pillar of this family. The good life they have now is also thanks to her uncle and Sister Tingnan working together with her mother in business.
Her uncle told her to go out and look for the person, and now that her mother had been found, she should let him know. Hearing her aunt's words, Song Yali turned and walked towards her grandmother's room.
After knocking on the door and hearing someone say "come in," Ya Li went inside. Qian Shuzhen had always taught the Song family children proper etiquette.
Yali found it strange to see a strange man sitting in the room, dressed in her uncle's clothes, which were loose and baggy.
"Yali, you're back. Come here, this is your father!" Grandma Qian Shuzhen greeted. "Wanxing, this is your youngest daughter, Yali."
Wanxing, Song Wanxing, Song Yali knew this name. It was written in her school report card, but it was just a name. In Yali's heart, he was just a symbol and never really existed.
Standing right in front of her now, Yali was expressionless. This was a stranger. So this was why her mother wasn't coming home and why she was crying!
“I don’t know him!” Song Yali refused to acknowledge this heartless man and walked straight out.
Qian Shuzhen quickly tried to smooth things over: "This child is still young and doesn't understand. Please don't be angry."
Yali got angry. She turned around and glared at the man, yelling, "Why did you come back? Do you even know me? Whose father are you? You're definitely not mine!"
She yelled and then ran out. She may be young, but she's not stupid. Who will take responsibility for her mother's heartache and pain? This man in front of her? He doesn't deserve it!
"Yali..." Song Wanli chased after her, only feeling relieved after watching her enter her room. Needless to say, Zhao Xiaojuan and her daughter couldn't accept it—they hid—and even he, her brother, harbored resentment.
Song Wanxing patted his behind and left, abandoning his three children and wife. As the eldest uncle, he had no choice but to shoulder the responsibility, but how easy was it to take on such a responsibility?
