Chapter 191 I'm willing to live with you
Lu Yunjie looked disapproving: "There's no point in saying all this now. If she really falls in love with you again and is willing to be with you again, can you really let go of your grudges, forget the past, and be with her without any burden?"
After pondering for a moment, Song Tu County's answer seemed to be... no...
“Exactly,” Lu Yining chimed in. “The worst thing about being a person is being love-struck.”
"It's already happened, there's no point in saying anything now. If you really didn't mind, you wouldn't have brought up divorce when we were at the hotel just now."
"The most important thing now is for you to figure out what to do about your daughter. You need to think about how to talk to her about this."
Of course, I'm saying this for your daughter's benefit; you don't even need to say anything. She'll figure it out in a bit and come down to tell you the answer.
Song Zixu immediately glanced upstairs, and sure enough, he spotted a small figure at the corner of the stairs.
A hint of heartache flashed in his dark pupils. He had watched this child grow up, and seeing her face such a choice now was incredibly painful for him.
However, the most taboo thing in marriage is discord between husband and wife, and a marriage that is only superficially harmonious. Such a marriage will not only make the couple suffer, but also make them unhappy.
Even young children suffer, easily feeling a lack of warmth and love within their families. Their personalities may also gradually become distorted.
Children are very perceptive; they can sense how their parents interact and whether their relationship is harmonious and loving, even if they don't express it.
“You’re right.” Song Tuxian smiled dejectedly. “I will tell my child the truth about what happened between my husband and me, and then I will respect her choice.”
After saying that, he lowered his head and stared listlessly at the floor.
At that moment, footsteps could be heard coming from the stairwell.
At first, Song Tuxian, lost in his own world, didn't pay much attention to the footsteps. Until, a small hand wrapped around him.
"Dad, I'm willing to live with you."
Upon hearing the sound, Song Tuxian looked up in disbelief. Was he so grief-stricken that he was hallucinating? But... the warmth coming from his back was real.
That can only mean that the person standing behind him and talking to him at this moment is indeed his daughter.
He shifted his position, turned around, and gently placed his hands on his daughter's shoulders, his eyes sparkling: "You heard everything? You heard everything Daddy just said?"
"Yes, I heard everything." The little girl's voice was soft and gentle, but full of determination: "I choose Dad. I don't want to live with Mom."
Her mother never took care of her.
From as far back as she can remember, it was her father who was always busy with her studies and other matters. Her mother never spent time with her either. Sometimes she wanted to go out with her mother and wished she could spend more time with her.
But her mother lied to her, saying she wasn't going out. Then, when she wasn't looking, she opened the door and ran out, locking the door behind her to prevent her from sneaking out and following her.
She once thought that she must have done something wrong, which was why her mother disliked her and wouldn't allow her to stay with her.
But tonight, she finally learned the truth.
It turns out, she wasn't the one who did anything wrong.
Instead, her mother fell in love with another uncle; her mother's heart was not with her or her father.
Since she hadn't really enjoyed maternal love growing up, she didn't need to live with her mother like a mangy dog; she might as well stay with her father.
In this world, only her father truly loves her.
This firm answer brought tears to Song Tuxian's eyes, and a few crystal tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. He suddenly hugged his daughter tightly, feeling the warmth in her heart, and said with trembling voice, "Okay, from now on, my daughter and I will depend on each other for survival."
These are perhaps the most touching words in the world.
The simple statement, "I choose Dad," instantly warmed his heart, which had cooled down.
……
Lu Yining and the others originally came to watch the drama unfold, but now that the drama is over, they feel that since they've already come to Liangzhou, it would be a real shame not to go out for a stroll, explore the area, and experience the local customs and culture.
So, after discussing it, the group decided to spend three or four days sightseeing in Liangzhou before returning to Hengdian to work diligently.
They originally planned to find a hotel to stay in, but the Song family was so hospitable, saying things like "We have plenty of rooms" and "There's no need to waste money," and finally adding, "We're all friends, don't be so polite."
At the urging of the Song family, the group decided to stay at their home.
Around four or five in the morning, everyone, including the Song family and Director Liu, was asleep.
Meanwhile, a night owl was still lying in bed, engrossed in playing on his phone. No need to ask, he had already fallen asleep in the car.
I'm feeling a little hungry... I remember Song Zixu's fridge has tons of fruit, and lots of instant noodles and sausages next to it. Maybe... I should go downstairs and get something to eat?
Lu Yunjie, who was sleeping, reached up and picked at his ear, then turned over in annoyance. "Go away, where did this fly come from? Get lost, don't bother me while I'm sleeping!"
Completely unaware of Lu Yunjie's inner thoughts, Lu Yining hesitated for a moment before deciding to leave her warm bed, put on her clothes and shoes, and go outside.
Instant noodles, here I come!
However, when she stood in front of a pile of instant noodles, she was instantly troubled.
"Ah, so many instant noodles! Uni-President Sichuan Pepper, White Elephant Old Hen, Master Kong Golden Soup Beef, and this one... what's this? Let me see!"
"Oh, Master Kong's Spicy and Sour Pork Bone Soup."
"Oh wow, there's also Master Kong Shrimp and Fish Cake Noodles! OK, this is it, I like shrimp noodles!"
"Go boil some water, go boil some water!"
Holding Master Kong Shrimp and Fish Noodles in both hands, Lu Yining strode happily toward the kitchen.
But halfway there, she paused, tilted her head, and glanced at the brightly lit kitchen with a puzzled look.
"Huh? Why is the kitchen light on? Could it be... that Zixu and the others didn't turn it off before they went to sleep?"
However, she didn't think too much about it. After a moment of confusion, she continued walking towards the kitchen.
The moment she stepped into the kitchen, she was drawn to a tall, imposing figure from behind.
The man was tall and slender, with his back to her. His long, thin fingers were stirring the noodles with a casual, rhythmic motion.
