If Li Sisi wasn’t so aggressive, he wouldn’t have spoken so directly in front of so many people. But whether he was direct or tactful, there was no way for them to go back to the beginning.
Actually, Li Sisi was in pain, and so was he.
"Dad, how can you be like this? My mom did do sothing wrong, she did things she shouldn’t have done, but in the end, she only hard ."
In Bai Fei’s view, mom had only hard one person, and that was herself. As long as she forgave herself, wouldn’t that be enough?
"Bai Fei, is this how I taught you? If it weren’t for Xingxing stopping her, your mom would have sold dozens of units by now. Regardless of whether she sold them or not, do you know that’s still harm?
Or do you also think that as long as you make money, it doesn’t matter?"
If Bai Fei really thought that way, then Bai Guang would feel like he truly didn’t know his daughter anymore.
"Of course not, I know my mom did wrong, but she already knows her mistake, can’t you give her a chance to change?"
Bai Fei didn’t know about that incident, and even if she did, she might still forgive because of family ties.
But Bai Guang couldn’t do that, and it was because she hadn’t found the secret. If she had found it, would she have betrayed the Bai Family without hesitation?
If that was the case, then he, Bai Guang, would be the criminal of the Bai Family.
"Bai Fei, you don’t understand, you won’t understand. Your mom listened to your grandfather’s advice, chose to probe into the Bai Family’s affairs, and was preparing to sell the information, do you understand?"
At this mont, Bai Guang had to speak up, but not saying a word was like stabbing his own heart with blood.
No matter how hard he tried, no matter how well he treated Sisi, it was useless; she didn’t care.
Bai Fei looked at Bai Guang in disbelief, taking several steps back. She couldn’t believe any of it.
"How is that possible? I need to find mom."
Bai Fei ran out quickly, heading to Li Sisi’s room.
"Mom, dad said you..."
Li Sisi was packing her things. Since she was going to divorce, she naturally wouldn’t stay here. She could very well live on her own from now on.
She might have been afraid before, but what was there to fear now? With so many connections, how could she not find a job?
"Yes, back then soone ca to our ho, asking to find the Bai Family’s secret, offering ten million."
And the reason she hadn’t said anything was because she hadn’t found anything; if she had, she probably wouldn’t have hesitated, because ten million is not a small sum.
"Why..." Bai Fei’s tears fell all at once.
"Because that money would definitely provide you with a better future."
Li Sisi pondered before speaking. She used to think happiness was staying at ho. But now, she thought going out was happiness.
Living a mundane life revolving around children every day was no longer satisfying for her. She now wanted to be a modern woman, bravely taking that step forward.
"I don’t believe it, I don’t believe you’re that kind of person. Tell why you guys ended up like this? Weren’t we always a happy family?"
Bai Fei, crying, shook her head, "Mom, I don’t bla you, I really don’t. Won’t you stay, please?"
Bai Fei was crying so hard she was gasping for breath, looking particularly pitiful.
Seeing her like this was truly hard for Li Sisi too.
"Bai Fei, I’m telling the truth. Sotis the truth is just hard to accept. Back then, I really thought that way, and even if I didn’t do it, it’s only because I didn’t find the secret.
If I had, then I think I would have said it, and of course, I would have told your father, but for your dad, regardless of the outco, it was unforgivable."
Since she knew this, she felt there was no need to explain any longer.
"Maybe in the past, I felt it was happiness, but now I don’t think that’s happiness. What I want is not that kind of life.
Bai Fei, what I want is to beco a modern woman, a strong, empowered woman, never again to live a life with my hand outstretched."
"Perhaps you feel it’s unnecessary, but spinning around in the kitchen is no longer the life I want," said Bai Zhi.
Bai Fei and Bai Xiang had grown up. They no longer needed her to do anything extra. She could now pursue the life she wanted. That was good, wasn’t it?
"But I don’t want you to leave. Are we still a family if you guys get divorced?"
That would just an they were two families.
"Divorce or not, I’m still your mom. Bai Fei, I’m sorry, I didn’t notice sothing was off with you before. I’m actually responsible for that. At that ti, I probably wanted success too much. So I didn’t allow for any problems."
Even if Bai Fei said her hair was falling out clump by clump, she wouldn’t care.
"I’m happy you don’t bla , but I want to chase the life I desire. I hope you can grant that."
Li Sisi didn’t hesitate for a mont; she gathered her things and then saw Bai Guang behind Bai Fei.
"Since we’re getting divorced, let’s go tomorrow. We’ll prepare everything today."
She certainly didn’t want Bai Guang to see her in a sorry state.
She didn’t need Bai Guang’s sympathy. She had thought Bai Guang would never betray her. Ha, Li Sisi scoffed at herself, n are all the sa.
If that was the case, then let it be.
"Okay," Bai Guang nodded gravely.
"Feifei, you go back with Xingxing today. Your mom and I need to talk."
Bai Fei wanted to say sothing but was imdiately pulled away by Bai Xiang.
"Brother, what are you doing? Don’t you know they’re getting divorced? No matter how big her mistake, she’s still our mom. Do you understand?"
Bai Fei looked at Bai Xiang angrily, wanting to say more.
Bai Zhi had already gone back on her own; it was better for her not to show up at this mont.
In fact, Bai Zhi was not surprised by her uncle’s decision, because if it were her, she would make the sa choice.
Because they both understood; they loved the Bai Family, and even more so, they loved this country.
Without a country, where would there be a ho? Aren’t the traitors in history miserable, those enslaved in history?
And the warti escapes, all of that.
And the recent floods, when the towering floods ca, it was the country that never abandoned its people.
So how could they forgive?
Unless...
Bai Zhi looked back at the courtyard; actually, there was a way.
It all depended on what the uncle decided.
Unless he left the Bai Family and never returned.
Bai Xiang, facing the agitated Bai Fei, said nothing.
"That’s their own choice. Bai Fei, you can’t, just because you’re unwilling, selfishly demand others change their choices.
Since Mom thinks this is right, then you should bless her, understand?"
Bai Xiang couldn’t forgive either because the more he knew, the clearer it beca what they should do.
Perhaps one day, they would no longer need to stay here, but now they must protect this place. Grandpa had said that everything was about to end.
In their generation, their responsibility would end, even though he didn’t understand what that ant. But he would protect this place together with Xingxing.
