Just divorced, the children are still very fragile and sensitive. Qi Fenglian didn’t dare to leave imdiately. Fortunately, her direct superior is Cheng Su, so asking for leave is manageable. If it were anyone else, she would’ve lost her job long ago.
"Taiguo’s wife, sorry to trouble you, but you see, during these days I’m not working, don’t give a salary, and I don’t want the year-end bonus either. Once the kids have stabilized their emotions and gotten used to it, I’ll go back to work. Do you think that’s okay?" Qi Fenglian said hesitantly to Cheng Su. "Sister, how could I not understand? Don’t worry too much, the children are the most important, especially Xiao Yun. She needs more enlightennt; I’ve noticed she’s beco more introverted these past few days!" Cheng Su replied with a gentle smile.
The thing that Cheng Su finds most heartbreaking about Qi Fenglian’s divorce is the two children, especially Xiao Yun. Seeing her cautious and timid deanor makes her feel an indescribable sadness.
This child is too smart and too sensitive. She knows that she won’t have a ho in the future, so things will always be different, and she can only be cautious.
Cheng Su suddenly understood those couples who don’t divorce for the sake of their children. She understood Hualing and her parents’ choices, probably because of this.
Seeing such a cautious atmosphere at ho made Cheng Su very uncomfortable. Having dealt with Qi Fenglian’s issue, Qi Taiguo still had two days of leave, so he accompanied her to visit her family.
The two weren’t in a hurry to travel, and they walked slowly, talking intimately, always discussing Qi Fenglian’s situation.
"Divorce is easy, but the days ahead are difficult. I hope Sister didn’t make the wrong choice and can truly beco independent and strong for the children," Cheng Su said. "Otherwise, if we support her now, the divorce will be for nothing if she’s unable to sustain herself and gets sweet-talked by Zhang Jisheng into remarrying. It would all be in vain."
Upon hearing this, Qi Taiguo furrowed his brows and said, "She wouldn’t, would she?"
"A woman’s heart can be soft, especially with children involved," Cheng Su sighed. What she didn’t say was that Qi Fenglian’s personality wasn’t strong; she was a bit soft and not the type to be resolute.
"If you don’t want such a thing to happen, there is a way: Zhang Jisheng could remarry imdiately. In that case, there really would be no turning back!" Cheng Su added.
Qi Taiguo snorted coldly, "If Zhang Jisheng keeps that attitude, whoever marries him is jumping into a pit of fire!"
"Not necessarily!" Cheng Su raised an eyebrow.
"Hmm?"
"It depends on the type of person who marries him." Cheng Su glanced at him and said, "If it were soone with a completely different, more spirited personality than Sister, do you think he’d dare to act carelessly? Would that old lady dare to act carelessly?"
Qi Taiguo was stunned for a mont, picturing the scene, and nodded, "You’re right. If a feisty person ca along, the Zhang family would never have peace!"
His smile was cold, and he was quite looking forward to that scenario. He thought it would best to have chaos there; otherwise, they wouldn’t know the aning of regret.
But whether they regret it or not, it has nothing to do with them now. The hope is that Sister doesn’t make any foolish decisions. After finally escaping the pit of fire, it’s not worth it to go back for a few sweet words.
As for the current hardship, endure it, and it will pass. If fate allows, she might et a man who genuinely cares for her and is responsible in the future.
Seeing his sneaky smile as if watching a show, Cheng Su knew what he was thinking and couldn’t help but shake her head. She quickened her pace and entered the house: "Dad, Mom, we’re back!"
