My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1534: Chapter 1328: Hurt

Clearly, there is love between us, yet we refuse to acknowledge each other. Clearly, it’s our own hearts at fault, but the words remain unspoken, burying love alive. Perhaps leaving love brings much helplessness, rejecting the sincerity between us.

”Xiao Wei, whether or not brother-in-law truly loves sister, there’s really no way for us to ask, nor is there any way to involve ourselves. After all, it’s a matter between them as a couple. As outsiders, all we can do is protect our own family from being hurt. If our actions continue to cause harm and pain to our family again and again, then why exactly are we treating them this way?

Some matters really don’t need to be complicated. If our interference makes everything overly complex, do you think that is a good thing for us? Or conversely, is it a happy or blissful thing for them?

Actually, you should also know that some matters are not meant to be interfered with.

Because it’s possible that the original situation didn’t have so many troubles, letting her live so painfully. However, in the end, our involvement might cause them much sadness and grief. We’re not helping them by doing this; we’re harming them. We all hope our loved ones can live happily and joyfully because that’s what’s most important to us. We shouldn’t let our selfish interests cause our loved ones pain and harm!

Xiao Wei, sometimes even I can’t figure out who loves whom more. Maybe the life they want isn’t like that, but what I want is incredibly simple. I don’t wish for my life to be that complex and filled with so much anguish.

You’ve seen firsthand how sister goes through her life. If our lives are to be the same as hers, then why are we choosing this ending?”

”No matter what sister thinks in her heart, nor how his life may have future trials and tribulations, whether he will be happy, all I desire is for him to be happy and joyful now. If he can’t even find happiness and joy now, how can she continue living happily?

You know very well what kind of person brother-in-law is, don’t you? Even if he truly loves sister, could he really oppose his father time and again for his wife or go against his family again and again? Could he still casually abandon his entire family’s interests as he once might have? I dare say now he absolutely won’t. He already knows what he truly wants, and under no circumstances will he forsake his father, his son, and his entire family for his wife.

If he once again forsakes his whole family for his wife, abandoning his father, how would Old Master Zhang feel deep down? How could he possibly forgive his son? When they returned home this time, it was already incredibly difficult, humbling themselves to beg them. But if once again, due to a mistake of his own, they leave that home completely, then isn’t all that she’s given in vain?

If anyone were to encounter this situation, they certainly wouldn’t resign themselves to it. No one willingly sees their efforts utterly wasted without any return.”

Xiao Wei feels he should absolutely call his brother-in-law to find out how his sister is truly living, but just as his wife said, there are things he, as a brother, should not meddle in. Doing so would only leave his sister caught in the middle, torn between her brother, family, and husband. Isn’t that making his sister a target on every side?

But if he truly doesn’t ask, wouldn’t that indicate he’s indifferent to his sister’s life, leaving her bitterly disappointed inside? As a brother, how can he act in a way that considers both sides? Must he truly become the villain, accepting all blame, allowing all attacks upon himself, becoming the victim enduring all the public pressure? Is that the best outcome for them?

He really doesn’t want to endure yet another episode of all the anguish he’s experienced before, but no matter what, he can’t just sit here peacefully. Whatever he wants seems so difficult to attain. Why does the world always go against him? Why does everything he longs for ultimately betray his expectations? Why does fate repeatedly push him to the brink, forcing him to defy the odds? Wouldn’t he face divine retribution for such defiance? All he wants is family happiness and health, so what do his repeated efforts yield in return?

”Xiao Wei, regardless of what those people think, and regardless of wherein your heart lies, there are things I must tell you clearly. Everyone faces matters differently, and the results they achieve aren’t the same. This time, it’s already set, all the affairs and results—you shouldn’t try to alter these conclusions, because no one can change the verdict fate has predetermined!

There’s no need to call Zhang Zhentian asking if he truly loves your sister, because such a question holds no meaning. It would only make your brother-in-law think, ’What did your sister say to you?’ If their marital relationship becomes strained as a result, then you truly become the villain.

Calmly accomplish the duties we should have with one another and protect the people we wish to protect. Don’t chase those irrelevant dreams time and again; those dreams will never truly belong to you, no matter how innocent or perfect you make them. In others’ eyes, you’ll always be seen as the one disrupting family harmony, causing them ruin.

Everyone acts selfishly, and when faced with personal issues, they don’t consider relatives. What does family affection mean then? Time and again, the results remind us that the beliefs we hold most firmly ultimately mean nothing. Even if you value them deeply, will her heart genuinely hold gratitude for you?

If he doesn’t repay kindness with malice, that’s already good enough. Why naively dream of sharing joy and happiness with them?

Perhaps you find my words excessive or uncomfortable to hear, but I must make things clear. Otherwise, you’ll suffer losses in the end!”

The most loved person in Shanghai wounds you completely, and yet you can only silently endure. The deepest feelings, the most fearful departure; tears can’t water the future, silence can’t bring back the brilliance.
