My Alleged Husband-Chapter 1730 - 1524: Bringing Back

No one can easily get everything they want; everything is earned through hard work and tears.

What does success and fame matter? If you are not here, who will share this wonderful night with me? Tonight is like a play, and I can only let the spring breeze carry my regrets.

Zhang Yichen had never seen his grandfather lose control like he did today. Maybe the grievances buried deep inside for so many years finally found a day to be fully vented. He could always clearly remember his grandfather often holding a photo, silently shedding tears, talking to himself quietly, enclosing himself in a private space. Outside, he was always so radiant and lovable, never burdening anyone with his negative energy, only wishing to bring happiness and joy to others. But behind the scenes, how much pain he suffered alone was something Yichen had never thought about.

Sometimes, I wonder if I had offered a bit more care to my grandfather, would the outcome have been different? I witnessed firsthand the hardships my grandfather endured over the years, time and time again, he sacrificed so much for me. But what have I given back? Not even a moment of basic happiness.

If time could rewind, would I seriously consider what kind of life I should provide for my grandfather? What attitude should I adopt to face him, knowing the painful and sorrowful life he lived all these years? No one knows I’ve vented all my anguish, yet my grandfather swallowed all his tears, silently bearing it all alone. And what have I been doing?

"Dad, no matter what, I hope you won’t say more heartless words to Grandpa. He’s really getting old, and he can’t endure the betrayal and pain inflicted by family time and again. Can you show him a little understanding, even if just by fulfilling a bit of filial duty? I would be grateful to you. I am sincerely thankful. Do you know how many people you’ve hurt with your actions? Have you considered the amount of hatred following you because of your deeds? You always think what you do is right. But is it really correct? Ask yourself, has Grandpa wronged you over the years? From the day you were born, did Grandpa ever deny you a life of luxury, ensuring you were worry-free? Compared to others, weren’t you the happiest of all, even without a mother? Haven’t you noticed that Grandpa gave you all his love?

Actually, Grandpa feels guilty towards you inside, hence he poured all the love meant for his wife onto you. But eventually, all his hopes for you were dashed, you chose to fly far away, leaving here on your own. You’d rather wander abroad than return home to be by his side. Doesn’t that hurt him deeply, leave him in despair?

With every action you took, disregarding his feelings, how could you expect him to think from your perspective? People should reciprocate, but if you can’t treat others like family, don’t expect them to continuously forgive all your mistakes. He owes you nothing.

If you returned home merely to harm your father, harm me, and harm every family member time and again, then congratulations, you’ve achieved your goal. You’ve gotten what you wished for. But I’m begging you to spare Grandpa. No matter how you hurt me, I can overlook it, pretend nothing ever happened, act like it’s all self-inflicted. But Grandpa doesn’t owe you anything!"

"Why do you still blame everything on me? Does it mean everything I did was wrong? Aren’t my desires the same as yours? Why do you always selfishly believe your thoughts are completely different from others, and are the only right ones?

I never thought my return was to seek revenge on you for once shutting me out. I genuinely wished to return home and be close to you. The unforeseen conclusion left me helpless against the harm it brought me. I shamelessly begged time and again to let me stay at home, but what did I get in return? I got nothing, only giving all the pain to myself.

You might think I am truly selfish, never considering anything from your perspective. But do you understand? If I never cared from your perspective, would I still be here at the shop? Would I be saying these things to you, holding you deep within my heart repeatedly?

You are my family, no matter what, the one fate that cannot be changed. Everything I did was hoping to make the family happy, longing for everyone’s happiness and peace. But in the end, all my hopes were dashed. Doesn’t that leave me disappointed, in pain, and in despair?

You always think I force all the pain onto you, but do you not do the same to me? Have I not suffered less harm and pain over the years? Every action of yours, is it entirely without selfish motives? Don’t judge others by your own thoughts; what you do might not necessarily be right. Acting this way only wrongs those you love, forcing them away.

Deep inside you don’t want me to leave, right? But why treat me this way? Again and again, what have you gained from the pain and sorrow, nothing at all. You burdened yourself with everything, thinking your actions were correct. But eventually, you would realize everything you did was wrong because you’ve hurt every single family member around you.

No matter what, today I hope to clarify to you, I truly never intended to hurt you, it’s just my repeated actions unknowingly caused harm. It wasn’t intentional. I merely made a string of mistakes resulting in these consequences, time after time. Does that mean I feel no remorse deep inside?" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

What’s blown away in the wind are just fireworks filling the sky, even the leaves don’t know where to go, let alone a person without a home.

A relaxed life isn’t necessarily a joyful one!
