Chapter 586: Chapter 590: Singlehood (15)

When he saw his daughter’s suicide note, he couldn’t imagine her despair as she jumped from the window.

His daughter said that she really wanted to live, that she had tried so hard, so very hard to stay alive, but in the end, she was powerless.

She had struggled for too long and was very, very tired.

Every word, every stroke, cut deep into his heart like a sharp blade, and the blood flowed freely.

He was in extreme pain, yet he didn’t know whom to blame.

If there were a next life, he would want his daughter to just be herself.

All these things that burdened her and shackled her, like marriage, family, children... He thought it would be best to cast them all away.

After losing his daughter, Su Peng’s next life was muddled.

A few years after his daughter’s death, his hair had turned completely white.

Fortunately, heaven took pity on him, and he found himself back in the past, his body quickly deteriorating as he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again,

His dear daughter was still here, safe and sound.

The first thing Su Peng did upon returning, besides visiting his daughter, was deciding to divorce Zhu Zhihua.

Their marriage, perhaps from when their daughter was very young, had caused her a great psychological shadow.

Zhu Zhihua was domineering and aggressive, and as the years passed, these personality flaws became increasingly severe.

However, the unhappiness in their marriage couldn’t be blamed entirely on one person— he played a significant part as well.

He used to think that as long as one didn’t touch the bottom line, everything could be compromised.

In reality, that wasn’t the case.

Moreover, in his last life after his daughter had left, he also learned about Wan Jia Bing and Zhu Zhihua’s youthful past.

He really didn’t mind, for who hasn’t had their crazy, passionate experiences when they were young.

The past was the past; he wasn’t so petty as to dwell on something from more than twenty years ago.

Yet what he hated most was that Zhu Zhihua, because of that little regret in her heart, pushed their daughter into a pit of fire.

But what he hated most was himself, because his daughter had clearly expressed her indifference toward Wan Shimin, and he had chosen silence.

Back in their day, that’s how their generation got by; it wasn’t about finding perfect matches.

On the surface, he too had thought Wan Shimin was a good choice.

Undeniably, when his daughter suggested she wanted to live alone, he was panicking and worried.

That’s why he agreed with Zhu Zhihua’s approach, and later tried to persuade his daughter.

As a mother, how could she sabotage her own daughter?

In this regard, Su Peng still trusted his wife a lot.

Her actions in the past had shown that she valued their daughter perhaps even more than he did.

But luckily... all of this hadn’t happened yet.

Seeing Zhu Zhihua’s stunned expression, Su Peng felt a sense of revengeful pleasure for the first time.

"We are getting a divorce," Su Peng emphasized firmly.

Realizing what she had just heard, Zhu Zhihua exploded like a lit firework.

She quickly approached, grabbed a few sheets of paper from the coffee table, and tore them to shreds.

"Have you grown so bold? I haven’t even brought up divorce yet, and you’re the one suggesting it... don’t tell me you have kept a mistress..."

Saying this, even Zhu Zhihua herself didn’t believe it.

After more than twenty years, she knew well enough what kind of man Su Peng was.

Don’t look down on Su Peng, but the one thing she was most satisfied with was that he didn’t have a wandering heart, and he devoted himself entirely to his family.

She believed that this man was completely in her control for life.

But now, the man she thought she had a firm hold on had proposed a divorce...

The situation developed too suddenly, leaving her completely unable to accept it.

Su Peng just looked indifferently at the person in front of him, going mad. He then said, "I have prepared many copies of the divorce agreement."

"Go ahead and tear it up, tear this one up, and there’s another one."

Zhu Zhua always held herself in high esteem, being forced to break up with Wan Jia Bing due to various reasons years ago, and her inability to get over it for twenty years was evident.

The husband she had always looked down on suddenly stood up, and her rage intensified.

Resentfully, she glared at Su Peng and, in a spur of the moment, picked up a pen and swiftly signed her name on the agreement.

"I hope you don’t regret it."

"If it weren’t for me, do you think anyone else would fancy a loser like you?"

Su Peng looked at the black and white document, and his feelings were mixed with both joy and sorrow, but the most apparent feeling was relief.

Regret? No, his heart was very complicated, emotions interwoven, but there was certainly no regret.

He should have separated from her earlier...

Compared to Su Peng, Zhu Zhua was filled with confusion.

Forcing herself to ignore this feeling, Zhu Zhua hardens her tone and harshly says, "Tomorrow at eight o’clock, at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, don’t you dare not show up."

"Hold on..."

Zhu Zhua, who had turned away, suddenly heard a call from behind, unexpectedly rising a faint hope.

"Xiao Li is studying now, don’t pull her into any mess."

"The child is grown up. The path she needs to take in the future isn’t for you to meddle in."

"Don’t think I don’t know, that Mr. Wan you introduced today is your ex-lover’s son, isn’t he?"

-----------------

By the afternoon of the next day, Su Li looked at her phone with its cleared contact list and filled up again with over twenty missed calls before she leisurely returned the calls.

The phone was quickly answered, and Zhu Zhua’s usually energetic voice seemed slightly weaker.

"I’ve divorced your father."

Su Li: "Oh, I know, Daddy asked my opinion last night."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhua felt a ridiculous sensation of being betrayed by her husband and daughter, wanting to explode, but remembering the indifferent words Su Peng said the night before, she felt somewhat guilty.

She awkwardly dealt with her daughter for a few sentences before hurriedly hanging up the phone.

In the afternoon, coming out from the library, Su Li, across from a small flowerbed, spotted a couple walking towards her, entwined with each other.

It really was a narrow road for enemies; she had run into Tan Zhi and Wan Shimin again.

At that moment, Tan Zhi felt she was about to break down.

The man behind her was just like an unrelenting ghost, Apiao, bothering her all day.

From early morning when she got up, he was holding a bunch of extravagant roses, ostentatiously waiting at the dormitory entrance.

The same scene, the same styling, just like yesterday when he was waiting for Su Li, with the only difference being the heroine was now herself.

When the main character was Su Li, she took joy in her misfortune, but now that it was her turn, she realized how overwhelming it was.

In the morning, as soon as she left for class, she ran into this guy who started saying lovey-dovey things that made one’s skin crawl.

She wanted to refuse, but the other person acted as if he couldn’t understand Chinese, relentlessly talking nonstop.
