My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1960: Chapter 1754: Blossoms in a Dream

I always felt that as long as I remained steadfast, no matter how many difficulties lay ahead, I could overcome them. But today I realized that many things are not as simple as imagined.

On this day, Zhang Ni sneaked out from home to play alone. When she accidentally fell on the street, she unexpectedly ran into Xia Jing. Seeing the little boy fall to the ground, she felt a pang of heartache and hurried over to help him up, only to find that the person before her was her own grandson.

”Hey there, little one, why are you here alone? Don’t you know it’s dangerous to be playing outside by yourself?”

”Thank you. I accidentally fell here. Also, thank you for helping me up. There really are more kind people in the world. You’re about the same age as my grandma. Oh, how nice it would be if my grandma could help me up too!”

”Little one, isn’t your grandma here? Where did your grandma go? Why isn’t she by your side?”

”I don’t know where my grandma is. My grandma has never been with me from the time I was born until now. I’ve never even seen my grandma. I don’t even know where her photo is. Sometimes, I really envy those children who have grandparents with them. But as for me, my grandparents have never been around. When I miss them a lot, I wonder where they are. Why aren’t they willing to be by my side? I just want my grandparents to be like other children’s grandparents, safely by my side. But this wish seems very difficult in my family. My grandparents never care about my parents, my great-grandfather, or me, their grandson! Do you think it’s because I’m not cute enough that my grandma doesn’t want to see me around? Actually, when I look in the mirror, I don’t think I’m that ugly either. My dad is more handsome than me, but why don’t my grandparents want to come back? I wish they could come back and be with me, but it’s really hard for us. My parents have begged my grandparents many times, yet they just refuse to return to this home. Is it because the atmosphere at home is bad, so they dislike everyone here? I want to be home and live with them, but I feel our home is really happy, with my parents and my great-grandfather. Clearly, a family can live happily together, so why is it so bad to live with your family? I really can’t understand why my grandparents chose to abandon me. Sometimes I just want to prove to the world that I’m the best, that my grandparents made a huge mistake by abandoning me. I want them to understand that while anything else can be forsaken, familial love cannot be. It’s something no amount of money can buy. I hope my grandparents will one day come to realize this truth!

”I didn’t expect such a little child to understand so many principles. If your grandparents knew how enlightened and hardworking you are, they would regret abandoning you. Keep working hard, so you can show your grandparents early on what an outstanding child you are!”

Xia Jing didn’t realize that the little boy in front of her was her grandson, and that the grandparents he spoke of were herself. She never expected that when she finally recognized her grandson, it would be with such a small boy. At that moment, they were both stunned, not realizing such fate could exist. This accidental encounter allowed them to recognize each other for the first time, and also for the first time understand what kind of person she was in her grandson’s heart, and what kind of psychological harm had been caused?

”Child, do you live with your grandparents?”

”To be honest, I don’t fear your ridicule. I kind of dislike my grandparents. I don’t understand what reason would allow them to give up on our family and ignore us. I really want to know, in my grandparents’ minds, what exactly am I their grandson? I wish I could have seen her on the day I was born, but I didn’t. I also wish they could have accompanied me as I grew up, but they never did, which makes my heart very uncomfortable. I’ve thought about hating them, but my parents tell me not to, no matter what. My grandparents, you see, they have their own helpless reasons too, and my parents counsel me repeatedly. Yet, it’s hard for me to accept. I’m just a child; I also hope to receive more love and care. Sometimes, I see kids at school who have their grandparents with them but no parents. I have my parents accompanying me, and I wish I weren’t that selfish. I hope I can receive love from both my grandparents and parents. Perhaps I’m too greedy, but who doesn’t wish for more? Is my wish really so hard to achieve, so unforgivable? I really just want my grandparents to come back and see me, even just once, just one look, would satisfy me. But they’ve never returned once. Perhaps they long ago dismissed my existence, or maybe they never wanted me to come into the world from the beginning. I dislike my grandparents, yet I can’t make my parents troubled. I can only suppress my dislike for them and force a smile for my parents. My heart is clearly in pain, but I can’t say it again to my parents. Because I know my parents love me very much, and they want me to objectively face the world and not resent anyone. I know my parents do this for my own good, but inside, I can’t help but feel like hating my grandparents!”

Hearing his grandson speak like this, Xia Jing’s heart ached with each word, yet she was helpless!

I know the feeling of a heartbeat no longer exists; words are like flying flowers, leaving behind only memories that cannot be kept.
