Chapter 1897 Just Pure Self-Righteousness
After reuniting with her childhood friend, she no longer cared for his persuasion to stay and insisted on a divorce.
He returned from the military and saw Old Six, who was only the size of fruit; he couldn’t bear to do nothing so he tried to court his ex-wife yet again, who would’ve expected when his ex-wife had caught wind of it, she fled on a flight to France and avoided him.
She had only seen Old Six thrice, once when he was ten, once when he was sixteen, and once more when he was admitted into Military Academy.
They had only seen each other thrice, so why did he dislike his ex-wife so much?
Supreme Commander Xia was also quite confused.
The private dining room was submerged in silence as if nobody wanted to talk to her; Mrs. Xiao, who was half a century old, lit a cigarette for herself and slowly inhaled a breath, after puffing out a circle of smoke, she smiled bitterly: “It’s fine if the two of you treat me like I’m unreasonable, however, Xia Xinhui, me being Ah Yuan’s mother is an indisputable fact, and something that cannot be changed, no matter how unwilling you are in letting Ah Yuan admitting me, the same blood flowing through Ah Yuan and I isn’t something that can be changed.”
“It’s my fault today for going to the family estate and disturbing Old Aunty’s peace and quiet, Xin Hui; how many years have I not seen my son? From sixteen till twenty-six today, a full decade has passed! I contacted you, but you avoided the topic, I introduced my best friend’s daughter to Ah Yuan, but you didn’t even mention it to him.”
“You don’t want Ah Yuan to meet me, so I could only find Old Aunty in the family estate and beg her to step in so I can meet Ah Yuan.”
Xia Jinyuan just wanted to be on the sidelines initially, but sensing that everything happened because of him, then he should stand out and say a few words; the handsome and aloof man’s voice was calm and without waves “Excuse me, allow me to interject.”
Mrs. Xiao, who was smoking a cigarette, realized that Xia Jinyuan was talking to her; her face was immediately covered in delight; however, the instant her delight had shown up, it was frozen stiff instantly.
Xia Jinyuan said emotionlessly: “I’ll have to speak a few words of justice for my old man, Mrs. Xiao, everything you had thought was just you being ‘opinionated.’”
“First of all, my old man had never prevented me from meeting Mrs. Xiao; instead, when Mrs. Xiao abandoned her husband and child and walked away in the name of happiness, in the name of love, the old man had always said that he was the one who disappointed Mrs. Xiao and didn’t blame you for leaving, and he had always urged me to look at the pictures where Mrs. Xiao was hugging me when I had time, to let me know that you actually loved me.”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t do that, because ever since I could remember, Mrs. Xiao had always said this to me, if you didn’t have a dead weight like me, you would’ve left this cage a long time ago.”
When Mrs. Xiao, whose fingers were pinching a cigarette, heard that, her complexion paled in an instant, the lit cigarette dropped onto the table from her shock, she widened her eyes and stared at her son with a face full of disbelief.
“No… you…, you… impossible…”
“Secondly, the old man knew you were coming home and called to inform me, telling me to go visit you, ten years old, sixteen years old, both times we met was because the old man forced me to, if it wasn’t for the old man’s sake, Mrs. Xiao, even if you knelt down in front of me, I wouldn’t even look at you.”
At this moment, Mrs. Xiao’s face was so pale that it seemed to be covered up by a layer of white lime; even her lips had lost the color of blood.
“Adding onto that, why do you think you have the qualifications to find a girlfriend for me? At the beginning, the one who abandoned her husband and son was you, Mrs. Xiao, the one who turned a blind eye towards Old Man Xia, and I was also you.”
“You weren’t there when I needed you, and now when I don’t need you, you appear yet again and intend to introduce me to a girlfriend, Mrs. Xiao; why must you force someone against their will? My father didn’t make it hard for you all those years ago. Otherwise, you really think it’s that easy for a military marriage to get a divorce?”
