Fanfiction about the Matchmaker God

page views:1 Publication date:2022-09-28

Watching the passionate scene between the two in the video, with Xiaoying's soft moans and her father's heavy breathing constantly in my ears, I finally couldn't bear it any longer. I frantically grabbed anything within reach and smashed it against the computer, pounding the monitor with my fists and kicking it until the noise completely stopped. Computer debris littered the floor before I finally stopped. Sitting back in my chair, blood streaming from my hands, my mind blank, I recalled the day I returned from America. From that day on, and the fear and anxiety I'd felt since Xiaoying found out. "Ha, is this my retribution? Is this God's punishment for what I did to destroy this family?" A sharp pain spread through my heart. I couldn't imagine that the person in the video was my beloved wife. Even the touch and voice from yesterday—I hoped it was just a dream, a fantasy. Reality slapped me hard in the face. Everything was real. I don't understand. Xiaoying could have retaliated in any way she wanted—she could have confronted me, demanded I leave with nothing, or made me never see her and her child again. All of that was fine. But why choose this method? Did she really think I enjoyed cuckolding, enjoyed giving you away? At that moment, I couldn't help but recall my original purpose. Because I couldn't satisfy Xiaoying, because of my physical problems, I chose to push her towards my father, even resorting to drugs to achieve my goal. I couldn't imagine the pain of losing her; I was afraid she would leave me, afraid she would choose someone else. But I was wrong. Love isn't just about physical attraction. The vagina is the closest point to a woman's psyche. So Xiaoying put on a wedding dress for my father. I think if I hadn't intervened, they would have continued. Continued their pursuit of sex, because I could never give my father the same kind of sex Xiaoying could have. Heh, screw the fortune teller! What nonsense about Xiaoying and my father's temporary connection! Can you tell me now that it was just a temporary connection? Can Xiaoying and I continue like this? Where is our future? Just then, a knock on the door interrupted my thoughts. "Mr. Wang, I heard a loud noise in your office. Are you alright?" "I'm fine, don't worry. Go about your business." "Yes, Mr. Wang." Looking at the broken pieces on the floor, I gave a bitter smile. I'll have someone clean it up later. I closed my eyes again, trying to figure out what to do next, but I couldn't come up with a solution. Now that Xiaoying has chosen revenge, she won't turn back. I have no idea what she'll do next, how she'll get revenge on me. And it can't just be simple revenge. She's gone to such lengths for my father, proving she loves him, even if it's just a seed, a seed that will eventually grow into a tree and bear fruit. I'm certain she still loves me, but there's someone else in her heart. One heart can't hold two people. She will ultimately choose my father; she will ultimately leave me completely. Why should I continue this miserable existence? I've made my plans. I don't know where I'll go next, but one thing is clear: I don't want to stay in this city anymore. This city is a place of pain for me, a place filled with memories of Xiaoying and me. I don't want to stay here, a place that only brings me sadness. Before leaving, I need to talk to Xiaoying again. Also, I still hope to take Haohao with me. I'm worried that if Xiaoying ends up with my father, and Haohao finds out, it will be a huge blow to him. My biggest regret is for my in-laws; I've hurt them again. But I really can't bear this anymore. There's another person I need to talk to. Leng Bing Shuang entrusted me with such a large business, and I'm leaving halfway through. Although she doesn't value these businesses, I feel bad for her. Having made my decision, I got up to start. Looking at the dongle still plugged into the computer, recalling those videos, I unplugged the dongle, placed it on the ground, and stomped on it until it was crushed. This is all gone. I hope I won't have to see anything that hurts me anymore; it's torture for me. I called Leng Bing Shuang. "Hello." "Mr. Leng, this is Wang Jingcheng. I have something I'd like to discuss with you. I hope you can spare some time to come over!" "Company matters?" "No, it's a personal matter. I'd like to talk to you about it." The phone was silent for a while. "Okay, I'll be near xx at 11 a.m. today. Just come over." "Okay, no thanks..." "Beep beep beep..." Still so domineering. I smiled bitterly as I looked at the phone that had already been hung up. "Secretary Li, I broke some things in my office. Could you have someone clean it up in a bit?" "Okay, Mr. Wang. Also, Mr. Wang, Director Ding from HR just spoke to you about something. Is now a convenient time for you?" I checked the time, thinking I should finish up my work before leaving, and said, "Sure, have him wait for me in the meeting room. I'll be there in 30 minutes." "Okay." "Also, I have something to do this afternoon. Please turn down anyone who calls me." "Okay." "Also, please make an appointment with Lawyer Zhang. I need to see him at noon." "Okay, Mr. Wang." At 11:00 AM, I arrived at xx on time. Leng Bing Shuang was already waiting for me. She seemed a little haggard after a few days. I sat opposite her, and when she saw me, her cold expression returned. "So, what's the rush?" I took out the resignation letter I had written and handed it to Leng Bing Shuang. "I'm sorry, President Leng, I've let you down." Looking at the letter, Leng Bing Shuang's pupils contracted, and she asked, "What's the reason?" "I plan to leave this city and never come back. I also hope that President Leng will stop looking for me!" Looking at me, Leng Bing Shuang said in an even colder voice, "If you leave, what will happen to Xiao Ying? What will happen to your child? What will happen to your parents-in-law? And your own father? Are you just going to leave and never come back? Wang Jingcheng, are you a coward?" Hearing Leng Bing Shuang's cold voice, hearing the words "Xiao Ying" and "father" that kept stimulating my heart, anger surged within me. "Yes, I'm a coward, a useless coward, a coward who gave his wife away to someone else, a coward who planned to abandon his family, a coward who watched his wife drift further and further away from him, I'm a fucking coward, you see now, you shouldn't have fucking pulled me back in the first place, you could have just brought Hao Hao back, I'm a fucking idiot, I'm a fucking coward, are you satisfied now..." Leng Bing Shuang frowned, looking at me still venting my anger, interrupting me and asking, "What happened between you and Xiao Ying? What did Xiao Ying do?" "It's none of your business, it has nothing to do with you. You've received my resignation letter, is there anything else? If not, I'm leaving." After saying that, I was about to leave, but Leng Bing Shuang stood up and pressed me onto the table, "Let me go!!!" "Calm down now. If you don't explain yourself, I can find you again." Hearing Leng Bing Shuang's words, my mind seemed to cool down a bit. I looked at her again. "You don't need to worry about it anymore. I'm begging you. I'll handle Xiao Ying's situation properly. At least I'll talk to her about this and get an explanation. And if she can't take it, I'll leave Hao Hao with her. And..." Perhaps she didn't need him anymore. Thinking of this, I felt tears welling up. Leng Bing Shuang looked at me and let go of me. "I shouldn't interfere in your family matters. Xiaoying is my best friend, and you're my employee. As long as this letter hasn't been handed over to HR, you're still my employee. I hope you think this through carefully. If you leave now, what will happen to your child? I don't want Xiaoying to reappear in the state she was in. If you insist on leaving, there's nothing I can do. I hope you can think carefully about the consequences." "Leng Bing Shuang, I've made up my mind about this. To be honest, I really don't want to stay in this city anymore. Staying here will only bring me heartache. I will carefully consider the matter of my child and Xiaoying. Also, I hope you won't tell Xiaoying about my resignation for now. I hope we can talk after I've finished talking." Leng Bing Shuang pondered for a moment and replied, "Okay, I won't talk to Xiaoying about this for now. After you've finished your business, I hope you'll let me know before you leave. I need to talk to Xiaoying." "Okay, that puts my mind at ease. Goodbye." After saying that, I left XX. Chapter Two – Playing On the way to the daycare, I looked at the scenery and my heart gradually calmed down. Before talking to Xiaoying, I wanted to take Haohao out to play first. During my conversation with Leng Bing Shuang, I realized that if I took Haohao away now, Xiaoying might have another breakdown, and I wouldn't be able to leave. Besides, my care for Haohao wasn't as good as the care here for now. I could pick him up again in a year; at least there would be a buffer period, which would be better for both Xiaoying and Haohao. When we arrived at the daycare, Haohao and the other children were napping. I found the teacher on duty and told her I had some things to do with the child and would be taking him home later. The teacher seemed a little confused, but knowing I was the child's father, she went in and woke Haohao, speaking quietly to him. Haohao was happy to see me. The teacher took Haohao out, and Haohao jumped onto...Holding him in my arms, he asked, "Daddy, what brings you here?" Looking at his innocent face, my mood seemed to improve. I whispered, "Daddy's going on a business trip for a year, so I'm taking Hao Hao out to have some fun. I'll drop you off at Grandma and Grandpa's later." Hearing me say that, Hao Hao was very happy and jumped up and down from my lap. "Okay, let's go out and play together." I picked Hao Hao up again, thanked the teacher, and went back to the car. I asked, "Haohao, where do you want to go?" Haohao thought for a moment and asked, "Can we go anywhere?" "We can go anywhere, anywhere Haohao wants to go." "What about Mommy? Is Mommy going?" Haohao asked innocently. Hearing Xiaoying's name, I felt a little sad and said to Haohao, "Mommy has something to do today. How about we go with Haohao next time? How about we go with Daddy today?" Hearing that Mommy wasn't going, Haohao was a little disappointed, but when he heard that Xiaoying could go next time, he perked up again, "Okay, Daddy, I want to go to the amusement park, okay?" Looking at Haohao, and remembering that this might be the last time I took Haohao to play this year, tears slowly streamed down my face. I picked Haohao up, "Okay, Haohao says he'll go anywhere!" Haohao saw my tears and immediately panicked, "Daddy, does that mean we can't go to the amusement park? If we can't go, I won't go. Daddy, don't cry, Haohao won't go." I wiped away my tears and smiled at Haohao, "Daddy's okay, Daddy just got some sand in his eyes, it'll be fine in a bit. Come on, Daddy will take you to the amusement park." I spent the afternoon with Hao Hao at the amusement park. Hao Hao was very happy, and I laughed non-stop all afternoon. It felt like I had never been so happy before. I only took him away when Hao Hao was tired and wanted to sleep. Back at my in-laws' house, I dropped the child off. My mother-in-law was surprised to see me bring the child back. "Jingcheng, why did you suddenly take Haohao to the amusement park today? When I went to pick him up, the teacher told me someone mentioned taking the child away. I was worried, but thankfully the teacher told me you picked him up." "It's nothing. I had some time this afternoon and suddenly wanted to take the child out to play." "Xiaoying, you didn't take her with you. When I called Xiaoying, she didn't know." Hearing that Xiaoying already knew, I thought this matter would be resolved tonight. "Mom, I didn't tell Xiaoying. Well, I have some things to do, I have to go to a dinner party later, so I'll go now." My mother-in-law was a little confused by my words, saying I had time one minute and something the next. Just as she was wondering what was going on, Haohao interrupted her. Knowing I was leaving, Haohao rushed over and hugged me, saying, "Goodbye, Daddy! Take me to the amusement park again next time, with Mommy!" I picked up the child. "Okay, next time." After saying that, I said goodbye to my in-laws and left. Walking downstairs, gazing at the lights of my in-laws' house, I sighed deeply and took out my phone to call Xiaoying. "Hello," Xiaoying's voice was a little hoarse. I sensed something was off about her voice, but I didn't dwell on it and asked, "Where are you?" "I'm at home. Where's Haohao?" "Haohao's with Mom and Dad. Wait for me at home; I need to talk to you about something." After a moment of silence, Xiaoying's voice came through the phone. "Does it have to be today?" "Yes, today. I'll tell you when I get home." Then I hung up. I gazed silently at the starry sky. This is the end of it. I hope it can all be over today. Back home, Xiaoying sat alone at the dining table. Several dishes were prepared, all my favorites, but I had no appetite. Hearing me enter, Xiaoying turned to look at me and said, "You're back. I'll heat up the food." She was about to bring the dishes when I said, "No need, I'm not hungry. Is he home?" Xiaoying didn't quite understand the "he" I mentioned at first, but then she realized and her face turned pale. She said, "Father is in his room." "Sit here for a while. I'll go find him and then I'll come back to you." Hearing me ask her to leave, Xiaoying's face grew increasingly pale, and her hands trembled slightly. I went straight into my father's room. He was sitting on the bed. I looked at him and said, "You go out. I have something to talk to Xiaoying about." My father was stunned by my words, then dared not look at me again and left the house. I went to Xiaoying's side and looked at her face. She was still so beautiful, but she no longer belonged to me. Now she belonged to my father, and I no longer wanted to embrace her, who belonged to my father. "Xiaoying, how long have we been married?" Hearing my question, Xiaoying seemed flustered. I ignored her and continued, "It seems like almost eight years. I can hardly remember. I originally thought we could stay together forever, but who knew we'd encounter these things along the way. Thankfully, we found each other again, as if God wanted our destiny to continue..." Hearing my mutterings, Xiaoying's face grew paler and paler. I composed myself and looked at her. "But let's end it now. I hope this ending will be a relief for both of us." Hearing this, Xiaoying froze, her face ashen, as if devoid of blood. I didn't speak again, nor did I look at her. I simply looked around the house, at all the things filled with memories. Every single item was chosen by Xiaoying and me, every single item brimming with our beautiful memories. I remember how carefully Xiaoying selected each item, comparing them from several different homes. Watching her choose, my heart ached for her. I told her we could exchange them if she didn't like them later, but she told me she hoped to use these things for a lifetime, just like we could spend a lifetime together! Sigh, Xiaoying, can we go on like this? Xiaoying hadn't spoken yet; I couldn't even hear her breathing. Looking at her, I saw she was motionless, staring at me like a statue, her eyes unfocused. Seeing her like this, I felt a pang of pity, but then I remembered what had happened last night. Instinctively, I turned to look at my father's room, and my pity instantly turned into anger. Looking at Xiaoying again, it transformed into sorrow and grief. But then, remembering that I was the one who caused it all, that I had forced Xiaoying and my father into this situation, I felt waves of remorse. If I hadn't insisted on this course of action, things probably wouldn't have turned out this way. Xiaoying would still be my wife, and my father wouldn't be thinking about her. I sighed. "Xiaoying, it's true that things turned out this way; I'm the culprit. But I really can't satisfy you, and you don't just love me anymore. You've fallen in love with my father. One person can't have two people in their heart, and sooner or later you'll leave me and eventually fall in love with my father. I don't want to see that happen. So I choose to let go. I don't want to tie you to my side." After saying that, I looked at Xiaoying again. Xiaoying still didn't answer me, just stared blankly at me, ignoring me as if she hadn't heard what I said. I picked up my handbag from beside me, took out the divorce agreement and pen that the lawyer had prepared at noon, and then saw the ring on my hand. I took a deep breath, took off the ring that had been with me for eight years, and placed it on the table. For the past eight years, no matter what happened, I had never taken off this ring, but now I didn't need it anymore. It would only make me angry and regretful. Seeing me take off the ring, Xiaoying swayed slightly. I ignored her and handed her the divorce agreement and pen. Xiaoying ignored me and stared blankly at me. I sighed and placed them in front of her. "Xiaoying, take a look. This is the divorce agreement I had my lawyer draft. Regarding the property, I still have 380,000 yuan, and you should have 60,000 yuan. I'll take the 60,000 yuan. I don't need the house or the car; I'll leave them to you. As for Haohao..." I paused. "Haohao is still very young, and I don't plan to let him think about it now. The environment here is suitable for him, and I trust my parents to take care of him. After he turns eight, I will let him choose whether to stay with you or me. If you don't have these things, then... then, sign it!" At this moment, Xiaoying's hollow voice clearly conveyed to me, "Take it. I will not get a divorce." Chapter 3—Confrontation Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment, and then anger surged up. I slammed my hand on the table and stood up: "Qu Ying, what do you mean? Do you want me to be your husband in public, and him to be your husband in private?" Hearing this, Xiao Ying stared at me with wide eyes, seemingly unable to believe what I was saying. Then her gaze softened as she said, "That's not what I meant. I just don't want a divorce!" "Don't want a divorce? Didn't you already tell me what you did yesterday? You were planning to divorce me, you were already prepared for it? But what do you mean now? If you didn't want a divorce, why did you do this? To get revenge on me? To get revenge on me for facilitating your affair?" "Aren't you right?" Xiao Ying suddenly shouted, "You pushed me towards your father, you drugged him so he could rape me! Who installed all these surveillance cameras? You were monitoring us, watching me and your father have sex. Wasn't all of this caused by you? Don't you like watching us have sex? Can't I do as you please? Aren't you satisfied?" Hearing Xiaoying say that, my anger turned completely cold. I felt a chill rush to my heart and then to my brain. At that moment, I didn't want to look at Xiaoying. I closed my eyes, but Xiaoying was still there.She said, "Yes, I got revenge on you. Didn't you do this first? You pushed me towards my father. Did you even consider my feelings? I just wanted to be a good wife and mother, but you forced me into becoming such a slut. Is all of this my fault? Now you can't take it anymore, so you're just going to leave like this. You forced all of this on me, and now you're planning to leave? You…" I reopened my eyes, my gaze icy as I looked at Xiaoying. Xiaoying stopped speaking abruptly when she saw my gaze. "Xiaoying, is this what you really think?" Xiaoying seemed frightened by my gaze and didn't speak. I continued, "Yes, all of this is my fault, but have you ever thought about why I did it? Weren't you searching for cuckoldry? Did you really think I was cuckolding? Ah!!!" I roared at Xiaoying, "I'm a fucking useless man! When you were masturbating next to me, did you ever think about how I felt? I'm a fucking man who can't even satisfy his wife! Ha! A wife masturbating next to her husband. What kind of man in the world does that?" Tears started streaming down my face. "But I couldn't do it. After my surgery that year, I never had any sex drive. Every time you masturbated next to me, I was tormented. I just couldn't do it! Do you know how much I regretted it?" "As a husband, if I can't even satisfy my own wife, I know love can't be satisfied by just physical intimacy; it also needs sex. I'm afraid you'll leave me one day." "So I chose my father, because he also has that need, and he won't take you away, he won't demand your love. He just wants your body, and you can satisfy that." "But I was wrong. How can a man beside a woman only want her body? He increasingly desires your love. He's not satisfied with just your body; he wants you to belong to him, body and soul. And you, because of his gentleness and the pleasure he brings you in bed, gradually opened your body to him. The vagina is the gateway to a woman's heart. As you gradually opened your body, you also opened your heart." "Do you remember our wedding anniversary? I did intentionally not come home because..." "I wanted to see if you had fallen in love with him, and he bought you a gift, saying it was for me. I think you know it wasn't from me because the tag was still on. You know I like things with tags on them. Did you think he forgot to remove it to comfort you? Let me tell you, he always knew I would remove the tags because it's a method he taught me. He always knew my habit of removing tags. And he has that habit too. At that moment, I knew he wanted your love, wanted you to love him." "Later, I started to stop you from being together and helped him find a partner because I hoped you wouldn't fall in love, so you would leave me forever. At that time, I thought everything was urgent, but I was wrong again. You still fell in love with him. I deliberately said I was going on a business trip to see what you would choose, and you still went to his side." But I never expected you to wear a wedding dress for him. At that moment, I knew you had left me, that there was someone else in your heart. My tears had dried, and I slumped back into my chair. "When you developed sex addiction, your mind and body kept drawing closer to him. Remember when I took you to the hospital the second time? The doctor told me you were cured, but your appearance told me you didn't need to be. So I suggested you break up." I looked at Xiaoying again and saw tears streaming down her face. "When you discovered everything, I still had a sliver of hope that you and Father could completely break up and start over. But when I saw the surveillance footage, I knew you wouldn't come back. You belonged to Father, truly and completely. But I never imagined you would choose to retaliate like this. I'm desperate. I don't want to go on like this anymore. Because I was afraid of losing you, I made this choice, but I was still wrong. I still lost you. So…" I looked at Xiaoying and said, "Let me be free, Xiaoying. I really don't want to go on like this anymore. I've had enough." Xiaoying looked at me with tears in her eyes. "Husband, I wore the wedding dress just to give my father an ending. When I was addicted to sex, I really lost myself in it with my father. That desire was controlling me. When you said I would cut ties, I did hesitate because the pleasure was too unforgettable. But I still chose to be with you because I don't love my father. He won't be with me forever. When I learned the truth, I really hated you. I hated you for causing all this. I went to investigate because I was afraid you had psychological problems, but I also hated you, so I took revenge on you. But I really still love you..." After Xiaoying finished speaking, she collapsed onto the dining table and kept crying. After listening to Xiaoying's words, I looked at her and smiled, saying, "Xiaoying, you've already figured it out, haven't you? You only said you still love me, but you didn't say whether you love your father or not. You've already fallen in love with your father, you just don't dare to admit it. But I know you'll eventually leave, completely fall in love with your father. Let's both let go; it's better for both of us." Xiaoying stopped crying, looked up at me again, tears still streaming down her face, her eyes empty and somewhat miserable: "I really haven't fallen in love with my father. Why don't you believe me? All I need is my father's sexual prowess. Why don't you believe me? Why, why..." Looking at Xiaoying like this, my heart ached, but I also knew that if I didn't let go now, it would only bring endless pain to both of us in the future, and I might even develop resentment towards Xiaoying, which would also affect Haohao. Composing myself, I said to Xiaoying again, "Sign it, Xiaoying. I've made up my mind." Hearing this, Xiaoying understood that I wouldn't change my mind. Her eyes hardened as she looked at me again. "Wang Jingcheng, I'm telling you, I won't sign it. I'd rather die than sign this." Hearing this, I felt helpless. I knew I could sue Xiaoying for divorce, but I didn't want it to come to this. If Xiaoying insisted on not signing, I would have to file for divorce, but that would take two years—too long. But I had to do it. "Xiaoying, if you don't sign, I'll have to file for divorce, and even after two years of separation, we'll still get divorced." Hearing this, Xiaoying froze, then cried, "Husband, I beg you, I beg you, don't do this! I really didn't fall in love with Father. I just saw him as someone to satisfy my sexual desires. I beg you, don't divorce me, I don't want to leave you…" I sighed. There was no point in talking to Xiaoying anymore. "I don't think we can talk today. Think it over. I'll come back tomorrow." I turned and walked towards the door. Just then, Xiaoying rushed up behind me and hugged me tightly, crying, "Honey, don't go! Please don't go! I was wrong, I beg you..." Xiaoying was hugging me very tightly, and I was afraid of hurting her, so I didn't dare to pull too hard. I could only say, "Xiaoying, let go. I'll come back, but I won't stay in this house anymore, and I won't stay by your side." "No, I don't want to, I beg you, husband, don't leave me. Don't leave me..." As we stood frozen in place, the door opened, and my father returned. He seemed surprised to see us like this, then, hearing Xiaoying's sobs, he suddenly angrily said to me, "Jingcheng, why is Xiaoying crying like this? You've made her cry like this." He even tried to check on Xiaoying behind me. Seeing my father seemingly protecting his wife, and remembering the passion Xiaoying and my father had shared with me yesterday, my lingering affection and soft heart vanished instantly. I yelled at my father, "Get out! I don't care what time it is, who you are, what right do you have to ask? Get out!" After saying that, I forcefully broke free from Xiaoying, who fell to the ground. I opened the door, turned to Xiaoying, and said, "I'll come back tomorrow. Qu Ying, think it over carefully. It's best to sign the papers; that way, it'll be better for both of us. If not, I'll file for divorce. I'm divorcing you." Hearing that I wanted a divorce, my father's eyes suddenly lit up. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw it and turned to yell at him, "I'll never forget what you did! You're a scumbag! You got your daughter-in-law's body and you still weren't satisfied, you wanted her heart too! I'm telling you, from today onwards, we're severing all ties as father and son. From now on, we're enemies. I won't let you get away with this!" Hearing this, my father's face turned deathly pale, and his body trembled uncontrollably. Xiaoying was about to stand up, but seeing that I had already walked out the door, she didn't bother to get up and scrambled to hug my leg: "Husband, I beg you, I really don't want to leave you..." I broke free from Xiaoying, turned and left, the sounds of Xiaoying crying and calling my name echoing behind me. Chapter Four—Self-Questioning After walking downstairs, I let out a long sigh and looked back at the lights. The living room light was still on; perhaps my father was comforting Xiaoying. Thinking of this, my wife being comforted by another man, a bitter smile appeared on my face. Sigh, at this point, I had no intention of turning back. Xiaoying, we...Ultimately, our fate had run its course. I arrived at a hotel and rented a room. Lying on the bed, I didn't want to move. Even though I knew I'd face more of Xiaoying's tears tomorrow, I couldn't sleep. My mind kept replaying Xiaoying's various faces from the past eight years: the happy Xiaoying with me, the Xiaoying crying while watching Korean dramas with me, the Xiaoying sad after our arguments… These images flashed through my mind like a movie. Yes, these past few years have been Xiaoying's memories. Every time I came home, Xiaoying would have prepared delicious meals. Hao Hao would be asking when his dad would be back, saying he was hungry. When did things start to change? This family is broken. Xiaoying no longer belongs to me; she won't be with me for the future. I thought of Hao Hao. "What about Hao Hao? What will happen to Hao Hao? He's so young and already has no complete family. But is it really right for Hao Hao to force things to continue like this with Xiao Ying? I can't stay at home forever. What if Hao Hao sees Xiao Ying and his father's shameful affair? Even if he's too young to understand what it means, Hao Hao will grow up eventually. The hurt will be even greater then. And can I tolerate Xiao Ying's endless revenge and betrayal? Xiao Ying will eventually abandon me and choose her father. What's the point of me staying here and prolonging my life?" Tears streamed down my face. "Haohao, I'm sorry. It's not that Dad doesn't want to give you a complete family, it's just that Dad really can't take it anymore. This family will only bring me endless pain. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it in the future and will eventually kill my father and Xiaoying, which would hurt you even more. So, I have no choice but to let go. But don't worry, Dad will still come back to see you more often. You are Dad's good son, and Dad will miss you for the rest of his life." "Mom and Dad, I still have to choose to leave this city. I'm sorry I can't take care of you two anymore. You two have given me so much. You two have taken such good care of a young man from the countryside like me. I will always remember it. Even if Xiaoying and I are divorced, you two will still be my parents. But I really can't choose to stay any longer. Staying here hurts my heart so much. I'm afraid I can't bear it. I will come back to see you two. I definitely will." Looking at the hotel ceiling, the warm yellow light and soft illumination made me feel guilty towards Haohao and my parents-in-law. But my determination grew stronger and stronger. Perhaps this is my retribution. Because I caused this, bringing Xiaoying and my father together, God is punishing me. I've lost my family, my wife, I can no longer see my lovely child, and I can't face my parents-in-law who have been so kind to me. Because of my choice, I've lost everything. At this moment, I hate my father. I hate him for being so determined to win Xiaoying's heart. Wasn't having her body enough? He even cooperated with Xiaoying to take revenge on me. You are my father! To win Xiaoying's heart, you disregarded everything, even risking your life. Did you ever consider me? You took Xiaoying away; what am I supposed to do? What about Haohao? Is Haohao supposed to call you "Dad"? I hate you! You're a beast!! Thinking of this, anger and sorrow surged within me. I sat up and pounded my fist against the wall, bright red blood flowing continuously from my wounds. Pain shot through my body from my hands, but the pain in my heart was even more intense than the pain pressing on my hands. I screamed, then collapsed back onto the bed, exhausted. The wounds on my hands were still bleeding, but I didn't want to pay attention. I felt that only when all the blood drained would I feel better, only then could I relinquish the blood he had given me, only then could I make the resolute decision to kill him! I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep. ... A knock on the door interrupted my sleep. I groggily woke up. "Sir, hello, I'm a staff member from XX Hotel. A customer reported hearing pounding sounds coming from your room. Are you alright?" I shook my head, feeling a little dizzy. I looked at my hands; the blood had already scabbed over, but the remaining blood had formed two large, bright red circles, staining the white sheets—a somewhat gruesome sight. The knocking continued. "Sir, are you alright? Please answer, sir..." "I'm fine. I was resting. Please stop knocking." Hearing my voice, the knocking stopped. "Okay, I'm glad you're alright. Sorry to disturb your rest." "It's alright. Also, could you please ask the housekeeper to clean my room? I've soiled the blankets; could you please ask her to change them?" "Okay, please wait a moment. The housekeeper will come back to clean in a bit." The footsteps faded away. I looked at the walls and the blankets, a wry smile on my face. I should have asked her to change my room. Ten minutes later, the knocking sounded again. "Hello, do you need your sheets changed?" I opened the door, and a woman in her forties or fifties stood in the doorway, her face showing signs of weariness. "Yes, could you please change my sheets?" The woman responded and came in. Seeing the two bright red marks on the wall and the bloodstains on the sheets, her expression changed slightly. She turned around, saw my hands, and her expression returned to calm. Without saying a word, she turned to get the sheets to change. I sat down, thinking about how to talk to Xiaoying tomorrow. I had no clue what to do, and Xiaoying probably wouldn't agree. What should I do? Separate from Xiaoying and then get a divorce? Two years is too long. Just as I was pondering this, my aunt's voice came: "Young man, there's no need to hurt yourself. Your body is still your own." Startled by her sudden words, I paused. She ignored me and continued, "Young man, if you have troubles, talk to them. Instead of hurting yourself, think about how to better solve the problem. Hurting yourself only hurts those who care about you." "Those who care about me? Do I still have any?" I said with a bitter smile. It turned out I did have people who cared about me, but I'd lost them all. My aunt seemed surprised by this and then said, "You think you don't have them now, but that's just because you haven't seen them yet. And even if you don't, life goes on. Go look for them; you'll find them eventually. Just like a problem, you always have to solve it." At that moment, the blankets were changed. As my aunt was about to leave with the changed blankets, I stood up and said to her, "Thank you." She ignored me and simply left with her things. I sat back down. Yes, no matter what, I have to solve it, even if it takes two years. I went outside and found a pharmacy to have my wound bandaged. I went back to the hotel to rest. Chapter Five – The Decision The next day, I woke up at 11 a.m. After getting dressed, I called Xiaoying. The phone rang three times before she answered. "Honey, where are you?" Xiaoying's voice was anxious and flustered. I ignored her and asked, "Where are you now?" "I'm at home, honey. Where are you? Can I come pick you up?" "No need, I'll be home soon. Wait for me at home." Hearing that I was going straight home, the phone went silent. I didn't say anything more. After a while... Yes, a voice came through the phone: "Honey, I'm waiting for you." Then the call ended, and there was a sense of despair in the voice. I felt something was wrong; I was afraid Xiaoying might do something suicidal again. After thinking for a while, I took a taxi to the daycare center and called my mother-in-law, saying I wanted to take Haohao home to live with us so Xiaoying and I could take care of him for a while. My mother-in-law was very happy to hear me say that, thinking it was a good thing for Xiaoying and me, and she agreed. I went to the daycare center and picked up Haohao. Haohao was very happy, jumping around excitedly. When I got home, Xiaoying wasn't there, nor was my father. Just as I was about to call Xiaoying, she opened the door and came in, carrying groceries. Her face was pale, and her eyes were bloodshot. When Haohao saw Xiaoying, he ran over and hugged her, saying, "Mommy, Mommy, hug me." Xiaoying hadn't expected me to bring Haohao, but when she saw him, she dropped the groceries, hugged him, and tears streamed down her face. Seeing this scene, my heart ached, yet I felt a sense of relief. Haohao, seeing his mother crying, anxiously asked Xiaoying what was wrong. Why was Xiaoying crying? Xiaoying looked at Haohao again and said, "Mommy's okay. It just feels like it's been so long since I've seen Haohao. Mommy's so happy to see Haohao." Haohao looked at Xiaoying, hugged her again, and said, "Mommy, you forgot? We just saw each other last week. Mommy, you have a bad memory." "Yes, Mommy's memory is bad. Mommy bought a lot of groceries. Mommy will cook something delicious for you, okay?" "Okay, I really want to eat Mommy's cooking." Xiaoying looked at me again. "Honey, have you eaten? If not, I'll cook for you, okay?" I wasn't planning to stay any longer; I intended to leave immediately after talking to Xiaoying because I really didn't want to stay any longer. But seeing Xiaoying's teary-eyed look, I couldn't bring myself to do it, so I nodded in agreement. Haohao enjoyed the meal very much. I made all the things Haohao and I like to eat. I didn't have much of an appetite, and Xiaoying didn't eat much either. Xiaoying saw the bandage on my hand and wanted to ask me what happened. I glanced at her, and she opened her mouth but didn't say anything. After the meal, I let Haohao go back to his room for a nap. Xiaoying cleaned up and sat back down at the table, gesturing for her to sit as well. Looking at my expression...Xiaoying sat down, her body trembling slightly. I took out the cigarettes I'd bought that morning, lit one, and said, "What's your decision?" Xiaoying ignored me and asked, "Why did you bring Haohao along?" "Nothing much, I just wanted to have a meal with Haohao and you one last time." This was the last time, I sighed inwardly. Xiaoying looked at my face, her trembling still unabated. She opened her mouth, but didn't speak. I took a drag of my cigarette, smoking quickly. I never used to smoke, thinking cigarettes were bad for your health, but recently I'd discovered that cigarettes were a good thing; they helped ease my inner pain. "What's your decision?" I asked again. Xiaoying's body suddenly trembled violently, then she stopped and said in a hollow voice, "I will not agree to a divorce. I will not divorce." I stubbed out my cigarette, took out another one, and lit it. Because I smoked too fast, I choked and started coughing violently. When Xiaoying saw this, she immediately prepared to stand up and come over to check on me. I raised my hand to indicate that she couldn't come over, and she hesitated for a moment before sitting back down. After I finished coughing, I stubbed out my cigarette and looked at her, saying, "Xiaoying, why do this?" "..." "You know that our love will eventually fade away, and you will eventually fall completely in love with Father. Why do you keep me here?" "..." "Honestly, I could file for divorce right now, but there's no need. It wouldn't be good for your reputation. Although I won't interfere with your future, we were husband and wife, and I want you to be happy." Xiaoying still didn't speak. I sighed and tried to persuade her again, "What's the point of you keeping me now? You have two men in your heart, Xiaoying. I know you. I know you'll eventually choose divorce because you're a willful person. Once you know everything, you'll want to possess them. But I can't go on like this. It hurts me, and it will hurt Haohao in the future. Why can't you minimize the harm?" "..." "I really don't want to get involved with you and Father anymore. I told him yesterday that I'm severing our father-son relationship. I choose to let go. Why can't you let go too?" I looked at Xiaoying, still refusing to speak. With no other options, I took out a cigarette again, ready to light it, when Xiaoying's voice came through: "Don't smoke. You don't know how to smoke. Don't hurt yourself anymore." Hearing Xiaoying's words, I smiled bitterly, ignored her, and lit the cigarette. Right now, it was the best medicine to relieve the pain in my heart. Seeing that I ignored her, Xiaoying slowly said, "Honey, I thought about it for a long time last night. I really don't want to leave you. I truly love you, I haven't fallen in love with my father. I only used him as a way to relieve my sexual desire, I only loved the pleasure he gave me. I never thought about spending my life with him. The only person I've ever loved is you. You could say my father was just a masturbation device for me, you are my lover." Hearing what Xiaoying said, I was silent for a while and then asked, "Xiaoying, are you sure you haven't fallen in love with your father?" Xiaoying was a little surprised by my question, but she immediately said, "Honey, I really haven't fallen in love with him, I..." "But that's impossible!" I interrupted Xiaoying and said, "I already told you yesterday, if you didn't love him, you wouldn't have worn a wedding dress for him. Remember when you said it was the last time? Every time you said it was the last time, but was that ever truly the last time? Can two people who love each other endure the pain of not seeing each other forever?" 我吸了一大口烟，「小颖，你只是在自欺欺人罢了，你说你不爱父亲，那只是现实和我的因素招致你不敢去承认罢了。你现在心里已经有个影子，那是父亲，不然你不会做出那幺多的事……」「我只是想报复你啊，」小颖突然打断我，哭着大叫道：「我只是想报复你啊，我只是希望你能爬起来，打我一巴掌，然后揍着父亲让他滚啊！」小颖抱着头，哭泣道：「我希望你爱我，不是看着我和父亲做爱啊，可是你呢，你为什幺没有站起来，喝醉了？那只是你的借口，你为什幺没有站起来啊，为什幺没有给我一巴掌啊，为什幺你从头到尾没有过来夺走我啊。」听着小颖吐出的真心话，我觉得很悲伤，我们似乎总是错过，总是越走越远，我希望那场一张梦。 A dream Xiaoying could never show me. Xiaoying wanted me to stand up and take her back, even if it meant losing me completely. She still wanted me to take her back. But we missed each other. My cowardice and disbelief, Xiaoying's hopes and expectations—we were going in opposite directions. Looking at the crying Xiaoying, I knew she had been taken away. From the moment she put on her wedding dress for her father, from the moment she and her father slept together so passionately, from the moment she chose revenge and was willing to do anything for her father, I had lost her. Her heart already held her father's image, and I would eventually disappear completely. I felt we should bring this to a close: "Xiaoying, let's get a divorce!!!" Chapter Six—A Temporary End. I thought my heart was numb, but when I heard Xiaoying express her hopes, I realized my heart could still hurt. When I uttered those final words, my heart felt like it was being torn apart. The pain intensified, and I gasped for breath, as if only that could alleviate the pain. Xiaoying's cries grew even more heart-wrenching. Time passed amidst Xiaoying's sobs. My breathing gradually calmed, I stubbed out my cigarette, lit another, and looked at Xiaoying again. My hand involuntarily reached out and stroked her cheek. I knew this was the last time; I didn't want her to cry like this. Feeling my touch, Xiaoying gradually stopped crying, lifted her head, placed my hand on her face, closed her eyes, and smiled, as if experiencing happiness. I didn't speak, just watched her, as time flowed by. Time seemed to stretch on endlessly. I looked at Xiaoying, knowing it was time to end it. I whispered, "Xiaoying, let go. Go pursue your own happiness. I'm not the one who can bring you happiness, and neither is your father. You're still young; you still have a chance to find your own happiness. Go find a man who can bring you happiness. I'm a coward, but I hope you can be happy." Xiaoying ignored me, simply holding my hand against her cheek, motionless. But her smile slowly faded. I knew Xiaoying would make her own choice. Over the past eight years, I'd understood her well, and I knew she would always make her own choice. That's why I loved her. I loved seeing her stubborn face, her smiling face, her crying face—all those different facets made up the Xiaoying I loved. But I had finally lost her; it was my own sin. Xiaoying ignored me, her smile vanished, replaced by anger. She gripped my hand tighter, her nails digging into my skin, blood slowly seeping from the wound. I didn't move, just placed my hand on her face, watching my blood slowly stain Xiaoying's face. Suddenly, Xiaoying opened her eyes, bit my hand, and looked at me with eyes full of anger and a hint of regret. I didn't pull my hand away; I felt that the pain was nothing compared to my sins, but it would at least provide some relief. Blood dripped down Xiaoying's face onto the table. The anger in her eyes slowly faded, replaced by regret. Tears began to fall again. She slowly released my hand, pressed it back to her face, and murmured, "Why, why won't you believe me? Why have I become this kind of woman? When did I become like this? Incestuous with my father-in-law, hurting my husband, destroying my family... Why? Why didn't you come and take me away from the beginning? Why, why..." Seeing Xiaoying like this, my heart ached unbearably. I was the one who caused all of this. I made Xiaoying this kind of woman. Why didn't I make things clear to Xiaoying from the beginning? Sigh, there's no going back in life. Since this has happened, I have to face it. Taking a deep breath, I said to Xiaoying again, "It's all my fault. I caused all this. I destroyed our family. Xiaoying, you can blame everything on me. You can hate me, but I hope you find your own happiness. I will leave this place and never appear in your life again. Take care of yourself. Don't stay with your father anymore. Find a good man to marry." "Do you know what happiness is for me?" Xiaoying raised her head and asked again, her eyes shining with happiness. "I just want a husband who loves me, children I love, and a harmonious family. Whether we're poor or rich, I just want to take care of them and live like this for the rest of my life." At this moment, Xiaoying's eyes darkened again. "But I lost all of this in an instant. Just as I opened the door to incest with my father-in-law, just as I committed incest with my father-in-law for my desires, I lost everything. I lost my husband, I lost a beautiful family. But..." Xiaoying suddenly looked at me resolutely. "Husband, let me tell you...""I will not agree to a divorce, no matter what you do. I will not get a divorce." Looking at Xiaoying like this, I felt helpless. She still hadn't let go, hadn't let go of her obsession. So I had to make my final decision: "Xiaoying, since you still won't let go, I have no choice but to file for divorce. See you then." After saying that, I stood up. Xiaoying saw me stand up but ignored me, only muttering again, "I won't get a divorce, I won't get a divorce..." Back in the room, Haohao was still sleeping. Looking at his sleeping face, I was very reluctant. I wanted to take Haohao with me, but Haohao had to stay with Xiaoying, because this was the last safety net for Xiaoying. With Haohao there, Xiaoying wouldn't try to kill herself. After I left, she still had to pull herself together to take care of the child and the elderly. Besides, Haohao was easy to take care of here. It wouldn't be good for his growth if I wandered around alone outside. For now, I'll leave him with Xiaoying and her parents. I'm at ease with them taking care of him. After I've settled down in another city in two years, I'll let Haohao choose for himself. After thinking it over, I took out my large suitcase, which I hadn't used in a long time, and started packing my things and clothes. There was nothing left in this house for me to cherish; the person I cared about had already chosen someone else, and the things I cherished were no longer needed. Looking at these clothes, I realized that Xiaoying had picked them out for me. Every single piece of clothing carried Xiaoying's scent. I really wanted to leave them behind because I was afraid that wearing them would break my heart. But in a new place, I wouldn't have enough clothes, and besides, I was only planning to take 60,000 yuan with me, so I needed to be frugal. After packing, I took out the bank card with 320,000 yuan remaining after withdrawing 60,000 yuan from the bank today and placed it on Xiaoying's bedside table. I returned to the living room, where Xiaoying was still sitting there, muttering something. I ignored her and walked to the door, ready to leave, when Xiaoying suddenly hugged me. The sound of crying reached me again: "Husband, I beg you, please don't leave me, it's all my fault, please leave me, okay? You can do anything from now on, just don't leave me, I beg you..." "Let go, Xiaoying," I interrupted Xiaoying, "We need to face everything. I'm not the one who can give you happiness. Leaving each other is not good for either of us." "No, I only want you, I only want you not to leave me," Xiaoying cried. Xiaoying's tears soaked my clothes. I knew that if we didn't stop now, staying would only cause pain for both of us. Xiaoying was just unable to bear the sin of loving someone else and destroying her family. She wouldn't let go of me, just like grasping at a straw. But Xiaoying would eventually realize it, and by then, the pain for both of us would probably have reached an unbearable level. I hardened my heart, broke free from Xiaoying, opened the door and left. Xiaoying tried to grab me, but it seemed that I had hurt her when I fell, and she couldn't stand up. I quickly left the house without looking back. Chapter Seven – Leaving After going downstairs, I picked up the phone and contacted Leng Bing Shuang: “President Leng. I’m leaving this city now. I’ve finished talking to Xiao Ying. Go see her now.” “How is Xiao Ying?” Hearing that I was leaving, Leng Bing Shuang’s voice became even colder. “Wang Jingcheng, where is Xiao Ying now?” “Xiao Ying is at home. Go see her yourself.” “You’re planning to leave now? Aren’t you afraid Xiao Ying will commit suicide?” “It’s alright,” I said, looking at the sky. “Hao Hao is at home. This is the safety lock I left for Xiao Ying. She won’t commit suicide with Hao Hao by her side. She can’t let Hao Hao lose both his father and mother at the same time. Also, please take good care of her. I have to leave now and can no longer take care of her.” “Losing both at the same time? Wang Jingcheng, what do you mean? You’re not planning to come back?” Hearing me say this, Leng Bing Shuang asked suspiciously. “I will come back. I need to put an end to things with her. Goodbye.” After saying that, I hung up the phone. Only one person was left to see. Once I reached the island, I walked along the road, knowing he would be here. He had nowhere else to go but here. I reached the door, pushed it open, but he wasn't there. I sat on a bench, took out a cigarette, lit it, and slowly smoked it, extinguishing one only to light another. When I finished my twelfth cigarette, my father appeared. He looked surprised to see me, then said somewhat flusteredly, "Jingcheng, you've come to see me." I ignored him and continued smoking. When I finished, I turned to my father and said, "Are you my father?" My father looked puzzled by my question, but I ignored him and continued, "You are my father. Have I done anything unfilial to you? I brought you here to take care of you, hoping you could enjoy your retirement. Is this how you treat me? Taking my wife's body wasn't enough; you wanted to take my heart too. How could you face me? How could you face my deceased mother?" Hearing these accusations, my father's face darkened. He slowly said, "Jingcheng, I know I've wronged you, but you know me too. I'm a man. At first, I could control myself, but I couldn't. Later, I really did treat Xiaoying as my wife..." Before he could finish, I couldn't hold back anymore. I stood up and punched him. "She's your daughter-in-law! Have you ever thought about me? What father in the world would do such a thing? Are you planning to make Haohao call you father? Ah, I really didn't expect to have such a father. You're really insatiable! You want Xiaoying's body, and Xiaoying has those needs too. I, this bastard, have tolerated it because I can't satisfy myself. Why the hell do you insist on having Xiaoying as your wife? Have you ever thought about your own son? Have you ever thought about my deceased mother?" I punched him repeatedly in the face until he was covered in blood. I stopped hitting him and said: "You're not my father, you're scum, a beast. I will never treat you as my father again, and don't go see my mother again. You don't deserve to see her. If you dare to go, I won't let you go." With that, I turned and left. Carrying my luggage, I went to see Attorney Zhang again. After exchanging pleasantries, I told her my plans. Although she had drafted a divorce agreement for me before, she was still somewhat surprised. She advised me to think it over carefully, after all, we'd been married for so many years, why let some things ruin it? She asked if I needed to reconsider, because since it was a unilateral divorce, she knew Xiaoying would definitely disagree, and I was leaving with almost nothing, so she felt there was still hope for us. I was very grateful to her, but I told her I had thought it through and wouldn't consider anything else. She had no choice. I wrote a power of attorney and told her that if Xiaoying refused to divorce, she should handle the divorce according to the two-year separation agreement, and I would return in two years. She asked how to contact me, and I told her I would return in two years and not to contact me at any other time. (There's a small bug: I don't know if the person filing for divorce needs to appear in court for the first time, and I'm unclear about how the two-year separation period is determined, so I'm just going to proceed this way. Please forgive me.) At the train station, I picked up my ticket back to my hometown, boarded the train, and looked at the scenery along the way. My heart couldn't find peace, because I was going to see another person, someone who could bring me warmth, but I was also afraid to see her because I hadn't taken good care of my father, and now I was giving up everything to leave. I was terrified of seeing her, but I had to see her, because it was my sin. Back in my hometown, I found a hotel to stay in, without disturbing the villagers, and I didn't go to my ancestral home. I didn't want to go there, because that was where my father used to live, and now that place disgusted me. The next day, I bought some offerings and returned to that place that brought me warmth yet also fear. I knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Mom, I'm sorry! It's my unfilial son who hasn't come to see you for so long. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." I couldn't hold back anymore; tears streamed down my face, and I cried loudly. Only here could I cry like this. After crying for a long time, my legs started to ache. I stood up again and looked at my mother's grave. I hadn't been here in a long time. Except for when my father was still in our hometown, I would come to visit every year during the Spring Festival. Otherwise, I simply didn't have the time. After we brought my father here, I hadn't come at all. I felt very sorry for my mother. "Mom, I know you'll blame me. All these years, I haven't come to visit you properly. Hao Hao is so grown up, and I haven't even come to bring my grandson so you can sweep his grave." I lit incense and placed it before the grave, softly saying, "Mom, I'll come back to visit you often from now on. In a couple of years, I'll bring Hao Hao to visit you too." "Dad, I won't let him come here again. He's a beast. He ruined my son's family. I hate him. I gave him everything I could, why did he have to have Xiao Ying's heart? Why? He doesn't deserve to be my father. I hate him, but I can't kill him because he's my father, his blood still flows in my veins. But I won't see him again; I'm afraid I won't be able to resist killing him. I hate him, but Hao Hao can't have a murderer as a father. I'm afraid if I do, Hao Hao will grow up amidst gossip and slander. Mom, you wouldn't want that either.""Let Hao Hao grow up like this. So for Hao Hao's sake, I will endure, I will endure." After saying that, I didn't say anything more. I sat by the tombstone, leaning against my mother's grave, as if leaning against her. The sky gradually darkened, and I looked at my mother's gravestone again and said softly, "Mom, I'm leaving. This place is too suffocating for me. Father's image is everywhere. I hate Father. I don't want to see him anymore. I want to leave. I will come to see you again in a while." After saying that, I patted my aching legs and turned to leave. The next day, I returned to Harbin and headed to Taiping International Airport. I took out the plane ticket I had bought to Lincang. I was already very tired of Harbin these past few years. I planned to stay in a place with a spring-like climate all year round, relax, and then find a job and settle down. I didn't know where to go. A colleague had traveled to Lincang before and said that life there was quite good. I also planned to go there and see if it was suitable, and settle down there. With some time before departure, I didn't know what to do. I just sat blankly on a public bench, watching these busy people. They were all busy living their lives here, and it reminded me of myself. Always busy, always rushing around. I thought about what I was doing all that time. I just wanted to make my family better, for my parents to have a better old age, for my children to have a better starting point, and for Xiaoying not to have to work so hard, constantly trying to please clients, working overtime and traveling for work every day. I just wanted them to have a better life. But now I've lost all of that. I made these decisions, and I have to take responsibility. I wasn't in a hurry. I knew I was about to leave, to start this city that was suffocating me. There were 20 minutes left before takeoff. My family was next to me. The child was fussing for snacks. His mother told him that he would have dinner later and that she would give him snacks after dinner. Because he didn't get any, the child looked miserable and unhappy. Suddenly, the father whispered something to the child, and the child instantly cheered up. I looked at them, and I envied them. I once had a family like that, but now I don't. I can only envy other people's families. Just then, the phone rang. It was Leng Bing Shuang calling. I hesitated for a moment, then answered, "Hello." "Are you really planning to just leave?" Leng Bing Shuang asked in an icy voice. "If you leave now, you'll only lose everything. Have you thought about your in-laws? Have you thought about Hao Hao? What about Xiao Ying? Are you going to leave her to support the whole family alone?" Hearing Leng Bing Shuang's words, I felt helpless. I didn't intend to leave Xiao Ying to support the whole family alone. This was also stipulated in the divorce agreement. After I was settled, I planned to send Xiao Ying a portion of money every month so she could get through this period comfortably. Even if Xiao Ying didn't agree, I would still continue to send the money. Xiao Ying couldn't possibly take care of the whole family: "Leng Bing Shuang, you're with Xiao Ying. You should have seen my divorce agreement. If you have, you know what my plans are." "You think money can solve everything? Is money all Xiaoying and the others want?" "Then what do they want? Me at home? I'm sorry, I can't be in that house. I can't stand it. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and will kill Xiaoying. Leng Bing Shuang, you're a woman, and I understand your sympathy for women, especially since Xiaoying is your best friend. But I also hope you can understand me. I made this choice after careful consideration. Also, I hope you won't help Xiaoying look for me. Thank you." Hearing me say this, Leng Bing Shuang sighed, didn't say anything, and just hung up the phone. I pulled out the SIM card, tore it off, and threw it in the trash can. Before boarding the plane, I looked at the airport again and softly said, "Goodbye, Harbin. Goodbye, Mom and Dad. Goodbye, Mom. Goodbye, Hao Hao. Goodbye, Xiaoying!" After saying that, I turned and boarded the plane. Chapter Eight – Calm "Brother Wang, General Manager Li wants you to come to her office. She says she wants to talk to you about something. Do you have time now?" A slightly mischievous voice reached my ears. I stopped what I was doing, turned to look at the owner of the voice, and said helplessly, "I've already told you, don't call me Brother Wang at the company, call me Team Leader Wang! You can call me Head Wang too." "Calling you Head Wang sounds awful, calling you Brother Wang sounds better." "That's what my colleagues call me, and I don't think it sounds bad. You really hid your true nature very well when I hired you, but now it's all exposed. Xiao Tang, you're such a crazy girl. I really regret hiring you. Especially since you're in my team. Sigh, I was blind." "Brother Wang isn't blind at all." Xiao Tang said with a grin, "Brother Wang must have a keen eye for talent, hiring someone as smart as me into your team." "So you have a good eye for talent? This is just a crazy girl. Boss Wang, our team is doomed after you brought her in." "Yeah, she's always acting crazy. I really don't know how your future boyfriend will stand you." "To each their own. Maybe someone likes this crazy girl." "Haha, Xiao Tang, you'd better bring her over to meet us properly. Before meeting the parents, you have to let us see her first, otherwise you'll have trouble later. Besides, Boss Wang treats you like a treasure. Even if you don't let us see her, you should at least let your future godfather see her, haha." The office was filled with teasing laughter. Xiao Tang blushed, turned around and said, "I'm ignoring you all. You're all bad people. Humph." She turned and ran to her seat, angrily starting to work. Seeing Xiao Tang's reaction, the laughter in the office instantly grew louder. Hearing our laughter grow even louder, Xiao Tang said to me, "Boss Wang, your team is like this, aren't you going to do anything about it?" Watching this scene, my face was filled with a helpless smile, yet I felt a sense of relief. Xiao Tang was the youngest girl in our group, and a member of the Wa ethnic minority. Her family had a tragic story: when she was young, she was injured by a wild boar while chopping firewood in the mountains and died shortly after returning home. Her mother had raised her single-handedly. I was the one who interviewed her. I initially thought she would be a calm and collected girl, but after two months in the office, she couldn't contain herself and caused quite a stir in our group. However, this cheerful and lively girl brought a youthful and energetic atmosphere to the team, making me feel a few years younger myself. Plus, after hearing about her background, I took extra care of her. Everyone in the group also liked this lively and adorable girl. Seeing how much I cared for her, almost like a father, they jokingly called me her second father, always teasing her about it. I felt a little helpless about it, but this girl was also very hardworking and had a workaholic spirit. I didn't want this incident to discourage her, so I simply ignored it and let them call me whatever they wanted. I ignored my colleagues' teasing and left the office. When I arrived at Mr. Li's office, he said, "Xiao Wang, you're here. Please sit on the sofa and wait a moment. I'll finish this first. Xiao Chen, get Manager Wang a cup of tea." "No problem, Mr. Li, please go ahead with your work." I politely declined and sat down on the sofa. Xiao Chen poured me a cup of tea and placed it in front of me. As I drank the tea, I pondered why Mr. Li had called me here, and I basically had the answer. A while later, Mr. Li sat down opposite me and said, "Xiao Wang, you've been with the company for over a year now, haven't you?" "Yes, one year and two months," I replied precisely. Hearing my precise timeline, Mr. Li seemed a little taken aback. He then continued, "You've been here quite a while now. What did you think about the matter I discussed with you last time?" I pondered for a moment and said to Mr. Li, "Thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Li, but I'm not currently considering taking on the role of Regional Director for Yunnan Province. I just want to focus on doing my job well within my own team." Hearing my answer, Mr. Li seemed somewhat helpless and said, "Your team's performance this year is the best in the entire company. Your abilities are fully capable of taking on greater responsibilities and challenges. When I
