The next morning, Dad came back.
He looked exhausted and haggard.
As soon as he entered the house, he knelt in front of Mom, clutching her legs and crying with tears and snot.
“Wife, I was wrong!”
“I can’t live without you!”
“I really can’t live without you!”
Dad cried uncontrollably.
If one didn’t know better, they might think he truly loved Mom.
“Wife, I have loved you all these years.”
“That wretched woman can’t compare to you at all!”
“I only love you!”
Dad sobbed as he made his accusations.
Mom listened quietly, her expression blank.
Seeing this, Dad cried even harder.
I watched him with cold eyes, unimpressed by his performance.
This was how Dad used to deceive Mom!
She was soft-hearted and always forgave him.
As a result, Dad became even more reckless in hurting her!
In this lifetime, I would never let him have his way!
I couldn’t help but roll my eyes.
Dad still had dark circles under his eyes; the skin beneath was a deep shade of blue-black. It seemed he really hadn’t slept a wink all night.
But I knew it wasn’t because he missed Mom.
It was because Grandma, who was staying in the hospital, had kept him up all night!
Grandma favored sons over daughters and had always looked down on Mom.
She constantly nagged about wanting a son to inherit the family business and carry on the Chu Family lineage.
In his helplessness, Dad sought out another woman to have children.
Meanwhile, Grandma pressured Mom to drink various folk remedies to conceive a son.
Dad couldn't bear to see Mom suffer, so he secretly had the mistress get pregnant.
His actions were driven by both his desires and the need to prove to Grandma that he was capable.
But he never expected that Grandma would actually encourage him to get a divorce!
That’s when Dad started to panic.
What benefits would a divorce bring him?
Not only would his years of being a Filial Son crumble, but he would also lose Mom's care and Grandpa's inheritance!
Dad worked in a bureaucratic job with a meager salary.
To earn more money, he forced Mom to sell goods on the street to support the family.
Meanwhile, he was responsible for pleasing Grandma and Grandpa to maintain his reputation as "filial."
After all, in Grandma's eyes, only Dad was her support!
Even Dad's job was secured through connections that Grandma had arranged.
Mom, lacking family support, had to rely solely on her own efforts to provide for everyone.
Dad knew very well that he had wronged Mom over the years.
Yet he took advantage of her love for him, for their family, and recklessly hurt her!
Now, realizing he couldn't divorce Mom, Dad devised a sob story to win her back.
Sure enough, he said, “Wife, everything I’ve done over the years has been for you!”
“The Old Chu Family has no descendants; Mom has always pressured you to drink those remedies for a son.”
“I felt sorry for you, which is why I sought out another woman to have children.”
"But I don't love her at all!"
"I just want you to be with me, my wife..."
Dad cried out, tears streaming down his face.
Mom listened quietly.
Seeing this, Dad cried even harder.
I couldn't bear to watch any longer.
His fake display of sorrow disgusted me!
Since he loved to put on this tragic act, I would let him perform to his heart's content!
I gently tugged at Mom's sleeve.
She understood.
With a sob, she threw herself into Dad's arms.
"Honey, I'm sorry!"
"It's my fault for not being able to give the Chu Family a son!"
"Honey, go ahead and hit me!"
Mom cried until her voice was hoarse.
Dad was stunned.
He stared blankly at Mom. "Wife, what are you saying?"
Mom cried even harder.
