Chapter 522: Chapter 521: Mass Release 1

You should know that Du Zhiwen is usually very proud because he is a teacher.

As a teacher, he is respected and has a secure job. Even though he’s nice to her, he has never knelt before her.

And now he was doing it in front of her family.

If you were to ask him before, in his own words, was it to make him "lose face before his family"?

Xu Sanya was so shocked she became inarticulate.

The arrogance that she had just a moment ago vanished instantly; she subconsciously moved an inch to the side and stammered, "What are you, what are you doing? I’m not dead yet."

Xu Niannian almost laughed out loud at her words, but the setting was inappropriate for laughter, and she struggled to hold it back.

What a bizarre train of thought her Young Aunt had.

At a time like this, can’t we stop with the jokes? It’s ruining the atmosphere.

Sure enough, Du Zhiwen’s expression stiffened for a moment.

He clearly hadn’t expected Xu Sanya to say that.

"Sanya, I know I was wrong. Will you come back with me? I’ll never talk nonsense again, and I won’t stop you from visiting your parents again," he said.

At this point, Du Zhiwen turned to look at the old lady and Xu Wentian with a solemn expression and kowtowed to them.

In that instant, the old lady almost blurted out, "I’m not dead yet?"

Fortunately, she held it back in time.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

Her attitude was unreadable, neither pleased nor angry, just indifferent.

Du Zhiwen looked somberly at Xu Wentian and the old lady.

"Dad, Mom, I was wrong before. I shouldn’t have judged people with prejudice, nor should I have surmised your intentions with my narrow-mindedness. I know my mistakes, and I’ll never speak nonsense again. I won’t stop Sanya from visiting you either. I’m sorry," he said.

After speaking, he kowtowed solemnly again.

This act, believe it or not, was quite effective.

At least it softened Xu Sanya’s stance.

But she didn’t show it on her face.

"What’s the use of knowing you’re wrong? We’ve gotten to this point; we might as well divorce," she said.

Seeing that he went to such lengths, Du Zhiwen panicked when Xu Sanya still refused to forgive him.

He knelt and scuttled over to Xu Sanya, anxiously grabbing her hand.

"Sanya, don’t do this, can we not divorce? I know I was wrong. I will never stop you again and I’ll never speak ill of your family again. Can you come back with me? I don’t want to divorce," he pleaded.

As he spoke, Du Zhiwen thought of Xu Sanya actually divorcing him and possibly finding another man.

With her family’s wealth, plenty of men would want to marry her. Thinking of Xu Sanya, who usually cared for him so tenderly, being good to someone else and even possibly having children with another man, Du Zhiwen was in an unbearable agony.

As he thought more, tears fell unabashed from his eyes.

He sobbed as he wiped the tears streaming down, his voice involuntarily filled with weeping.

"Sanya, can we not divorce? Let’s not divorce..."

"Sanya, I was wrong. Can you please not divorce me? Whatever you want me to do, just say it, please don’t divorce me," he begged.

Du Zhiwen, a grown man, sobbing uncontrollably at the thought of Xu Sanya marrying someone else, his glasses fogging up with tears.

He clumsily removed his glasses, continuously apologizing to Xu Sanya.

When had Xu Sanya ever seen Du Zhiwen like this? Let alone if he had done something wrong; her feelings for him were still present in such a short time.

Now seeing him in such distress, not only had he set aside his pride to kneel and beg for forgiveness, but he also cried.

For a moment, Xu Sanya felt a tightness in her chest.

She had originally planned to avoid and stay firm for a while, but now, seeing his sincere apology, she couldn’t bear it. Her lips quivered a few times, and looking at Du Zhiwen, she asked coldly, "Do you really know what you did wrong?"

Du Zhiwen knew Xu Sanya too well. Although her tone was still cold, the fact that she asked this question meant she was softening.

He quickly seized the opportunity, holding Xu Sanya’s hand, "Sanya, I swear, I’ll never stop you again. Whatever you say goes. Can we please not divorce?"

Du Zhiwen really didn’t want a divorce from the bottom of his heart. He was a simple man; getting married was for life, and he had never contemplated divorcing Xu Sanya.

All he wanted was to live a good life.

The sight of him, tears falling while begging for forgiveness, seemed both pitiful and detestable to Xu Sanya.

If only he had been like this earlier, right? There would have been no need to argue.

But Xu Sanya didn’t forget what needed to be said.

"You have to apologize to my mother first. If she forgives you, then I’ll forgive you," she declared.

Du Zhiwen was quick to comply, immediately continuing to apologize and seek forgiveness from the old lady.

Gao Lihong’s lips moved slightly; she wanted to reprimand him but ultimately held back.

Never mind, she thought; they should worry about their own issues, and she wouldn’t be the distressing old woman.

After some thought, the old lady ultimately said, "Just make sure you and Sanya live well together."

In one sentence, she made her stance clear and straightforward.

Upon hearing this, Du Zhiwen felt even more remorseful.

He knew the old lady would react like this, all for Xu Sanya’s sake.

Thinking of how kind the old lady was to his wife, and yet how he often got upset about Xu Sanya visiting home, Du Zhiwen’s guilt deepened. Heavily, he said, "Mom, I’m sorry about the past, and it won’t happen again."
