My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1590: Chapter 1384: Hunter

Right now, in Zhang Ni’s heart, Zhang Yichen is just a selfish father. His selfish goals have already been achieved, resorting to any means for his own purposes, even at the expense of hurting his own family and his loved ones around him.

He thinks that his father is simply terrifying now. Willing to consider only his own interests for the sake of his family, he can hurt everyone around him for his own gain.

Now, he doesn’t even understand what all of his actions are for. It’s possible that his actions have hurt those who loved him the most, but it seems like he doesn’t care at all now. Even so, he still does whatever he wants, totally abandoning his whole family, treating everything his family says like wind blowing past his ears. He is no longer the father he used to be. He’s changed, and he is completely different from before, becoming ruthless, turning cold and merciless. Is this really his father? Why is he living like this?

Zhang Ni cannot understand at all why his father has become like this. What is the reason? Is it just the lack of love from his own parents?

Even if it’s truly because of a lack of his parents’ love, he doesn’t need to do such things. Has he considered his parents when doing these things? What does he think the outcome will be after they know? Doesn’t he think about the deep pain that knowing the truth would cause his parents? Now, in his eyes, he only sees himself, which makes them completely different people.

Zhang Yichen knows the changes in his image in his son’s heart now, but he has no choice. Things have gone this far, and he can only let the mistakes continue. He never imagined how pathetic his life could be. As long as he could be happy and his parents live peacefully without arguing about anything, he would feel content. But now that the world has become such a mess, what should he do to make everything seem like it never happened, and return it to its original state?

”Son, I know that in your heart right now, as a father, I am completely irresponsible. We’ve missed out on so much. You know how much I long for my parents to be by my side. You’ve always had your mom and me with you, so you don’t feel the absence of parental companionship. You don’t understand how exciting that emotion can be, how painful it is for men. We can’t always throw away what we don’t want and let others bear it for us. No one wants to repeatedly take on everything. I don’t ask for much; I just hope everyone can live safely and happily. Why is it so difficult?

Now, in your heart, I’m completely irrelevant. You always think everything I do is for my own selfish desires. Do you know, I’ve also seen with my own eyes how much my grandfather suffered over the years, how much he longed for his son to be with him? I’ve grown used to my parents not being around my whole life, but my grandfather can’t. He’s already old and cannot take any surprises. He just hopes his last wish can be fulfilled. How could I easily extinguish all my grandfather’s hopes just because of hatred?

You should understand in your heart how he really treats me.

You’ve seen for yourself through these years how difficult and unbearable his life has been. He’s given me all the best he had.

Should I let all his years of expectation be destroyed just because of this small thing?

I once told you, I’m always one to return in kind. What I can’t have, I’d rather destroy than let anyone else have it, but I can’t do that now.

Because if I do, no one knows what might happen to my grandfather. Sometimes, we need to consider things from other people’s perspectives.

The era of my self-centeredness is over. I can no longer live carefreely like I used to, without concern. I have no reason to treat everything carelessly like before. I am now filled with fear of life. I’m afraid that without caution, I might harm my family. Every decision I make now is to ensure my family can live happily together. Do you think this home still looks like what a family should be? The house is in shambles. Your mother has become like this, and if I have to drive your grandparents out of the house, wouldn’t that completely shatter our family, making it impossible to return to the peaceful family we once had?”

Zhang Ni can disregard their parents’ thoughts, but he cannot disregard their great-grandfather’s thoughts.

She knows deep in her heart how good Old Master Zhang is to her father and to her. He has given everything to provide us with the best. If he suffers because of these things, then where does her conscience lie? How can she face all those who have helped her, does she truly deserve all the help they’ve given her? Does it justify her continuous efforts and happiness? Never did she think about how difficult her life might be. All she wanted was for every member of this family to live happily.

Ultimately, there’s nothing wrong with what her father has done. He’s also become what he is for the sake of this family, for the happiness of everyone in this family. If she blames him for these things, would she truly be right? Then she would truly become the unkind, unrighteous, disloyal, and unfilial person. No matter what, she must ensure that the people in this family live peacefully and happily. Perhaps the most important thing for a family is for everyone to live together, supporting one another. Even when confronted with numerous hardships, they still embrace each other tightly, never to separate.
