Chapter 1428 - 1249: A Change of Address? (2)
Yes, she must do it...
...
On this side, Li Guirong did not question Shi Yuanbo about Shi Nuan.
But Shi Jiaojiao, who followed them back, went upstairs to find Shi Yuanbo as soon as she returned.
At that moment, Shi Yuanbo was resting on the couch in the study. Seeing Shi Jiaojiao storm in, his face already showed displeasure.
He said, "Didn’t you say after the wedding banquet, we were to have dinner at the Yao family? Why did you come back?"
"Dad, I want to know, did you already know about Shi Nuan’s marriage to Song Yansheng?"
Shi Yuanbo said, "What’s the difference between knowing early or late?"
"Of course there’s a difference. Moreover, if you already knew, shouldn’t you have told mom and me? We are your wife and daughter. How could you not tell us about such a big matter?"
"Tell you?" Shi Yuanbo sat up and looked at Shi Jiaojiao.
This is his daughter, his biological daughter, but compared to Shi Nuan, this daughter has already been spoiled by Li Guirong.
Even if he wanted to guide her now, it would probably be useless.
He said, "Actually, I thought about telling you, but what’s the difference between telling you and not telling you? Nuannuan is with Song Yansheng, and Song Yansheng belongs to her, don’t you all know this already?"
"That’s different. Before, mom and I both thought she was Song Yansheng’s kept mistress..."
"Nonsense—" Shi Yuanbo roared angrily, "Shi Jiaojiao, remember this, Shi Nuan is your sister, your biological sister. Is this how a sister talks about her own sister?"
"I also don’t want to say this about her, but you’ve always kept it from us, so what else could we think? In the end, it’s because dad deliberately hid it from us. In your heart, we are not as important as Shi Nuan..."
"In my heart, you really aren’t as important as Nuannuan..." Shi Yuanbo shouted, his face full of anger.
Shi Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Dad, you’ve finally admitted it. You just prefer Shi Nuan. In your heart, there’s always been only one daughter, Shi Nuan. You always say I am Shi Nuan’s sister and your biological daughter, but all along, you only cared about Tian Chao. Have you ever cared about me?
Even Shi Nuan is a hundred times, a thousand times happier than me, because at least in her childhood, she had your love. Now she also has it again, and you give her opportunities for experience, and shares in the company... but what about me? Dad, what do I have?"
Shi Yuanbo just felt a throbbing headache while listening.
Before, when he was with his wife Xu Hua, Xu Hua had a cool temperament and was taciturn; she didn’t like to talk about many things.
She wouldn’t speak when angry, nor when happy.
She was like a secluded orchid in a valley, growing atop a high mountain, making him look up in admiration.
At that time, he was tired of such a life.
Later, after marrying Li Guirong, he had both a son and a daughter.
Li Guirong liked to fuss over every detail, which he initially found amusing.
He thought this was what a real marriage looked like, this was life.
But now, he greatly misses Xu Hua.
He vividly remembers the words Xu Hua spoke to him with her last breath before she passed away.
—If I could choose again, I would never marry you!
She said, "Dad, I was wrong, I really was wrong. I went to you, knelt down, and confessed. Can you forgive me?"
At that moment, Shi Yuanbo initially felt angry, followed by shame and humiliation.
Old Sir Xu indeed opposed him being with Xu Hua back then; he did not trust him.
At that time, he was defiant, always wanting to prove something.
But now, everything has confirmed Old Sir Xu’s words back then.
He indeed let Xu Hua down, and even harmed his daughter, Shi Nuan.
He’s truly a sinner, a total sinner.
...
Back at the Song Mansion, Shi Nuan felt much more settled.
After all, she was back home.
But she knew that after today, her life with Song Yansheng could never be peaceful again.
Even though she didn’t agree with Song Yansheng’s actions, she still couldn’t help but be moved.
For any woman in this world to be treated this way by a man, they would probably feel it was a kind of happiness.
Today, the original main characters should have been Song Qingyang and Yu Dou, but due to a farce, the main characters became Shi Nuan and Song Yansheng.
After returning to the Song Mansion, Yu Yao had called, saying the usual words.
But the incident had already happened, and it didn’t matter what was said anymore.
Yu Yaodao, "I naturally understand your intentions, but A Yu, I hope you won’t be impulsive a second time. The trouble this time will eventually show its magnitude in the future..."
