It took a long time for her expression to return to calm.

She looked at him and said, "Do you know what? What you said is exactly the same as what Su Hanze said before. When I first met him, I was instantly infatuated with him, just like you were infatuated with me. And what good result did you get in return?"

"He wanted to find someone to use as a tool to continue his infatuation, and I was the one he chose. At that time, he didn't tell me his true purpose directly, but packaged it up and said that he fell in love with me at first sight, liked me very much, and wanted to marry me. How stupid I was at that time, I believed whatever he said. And now you see, if it weren't for your help, I still wouldn't be able to get out of that swamp."

Jiang Tian's eyes involuntarily filled with tears: "I know what you're thinking is true. You really want me to let down my guard, but I can't. We can date, so let's not talk about marriage anymore. Right now, I just want to focus on my work. I finally have the opportunity to earn money with my own hands, and I don't want to interrupt it because of marriage."

At this point, she choked up: "I really don't want to go back to that situation where I had no one to turn to for help. It's a miracle that you came to save me. Without you, I would really be waiting to be abandoned. That kind of life is not what I want. I am also a person, and I just want to be myself. I don't want to be anyone's foil in this life!"

As she was talking, she started coughing.

Wei Su quickly hugged her and brought her water: "Don't be so anxious, have some water first."

Seeing that she was very emotional, Wei Su knew that it was useless for him to express his true feelings today, but he only felt heartache.

It took Jiang Tian a while to calm down. She was still taking medication, and Wei Su hadn't forgotten that she was still a patient recovering on her own.

"Okay, okay, let's date first. Don't worry, I won't bring this up again. You need to take care of your health. I'll be even angrier if you're not healthy. In my eyes, no one is more important than you. You are the most important. It doesn't matter what our relationship is, whether we're dating or getting married, you understand? It's just that you have to be well. I can only be well if you're well. Please, have some compassion and think about me. Don't get so agitated."

Wei Su deliberately took the blame upon himself, showing that he was in distress.

Jiang Tian took a sip of water, and her emotions indeed calmed down considerably afterward.

She still felt a pang of guilt: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. Right now, I just want to make money and find my footing in this society. I've been out of touch with society for too long, and it's really hard to accept. I was raised with the idea that my whole family should be self-reliant. I can't be a caged bird."

“I understand, I understand everything. I know you're in a difficult position, I know you're in pain. Don't worry, I will always be on your side. Even if you don't believe my feelings will last a long time, you should know that we should enjoy the present. I will treat you well.”

Wei Su could see no other emotion besides heartache; he was truly heartbroken.

The world is full of things that don't go as planned, but fortunately Jiang Tian has a chance to start over.

She seized the opportunity, and Wei Su wouldn't deprive her of her basic right to work independently. She just wanted to make a name for herself in life, what's wrong with that?

Jiang Tian returned his kiss: "Then don't leave tonight."

"……good."

While the two were immersed in a sweet atmosphere, Zhao Mingyao, true to her word, flew abroad for a trip.

She seemed determined to show her husband what the family would be like without his wife.

Before leaving, she specifically told the children, "If you need anything, go to Dad. Dad is your guardian angel, and he will definitely fulfill all your requests."

The two children had been cared for by their mother for a long time, and now that she had left alone, they felt a deep sadness.

Both of them looked at Zhao Mingyao with teary eyes, but Zhao Mingyao did not change her mind. She had made up her mind to live for herself again. Why should she be a puppet and accept her husband's orders?

If you make her go to work, she'll see who takes care of the children!

Zhao Mingyao did not say goodbye to Shen Dingkun, and Shen Dingkun seemed unwilling to have any interaction with her either. The two of them went about their own business.

As soon as their mother left, the two children could only linger around their father.

Shen Dingkun did not panic.

He is not someone who has never taken care of children before.

He personally held these two children, fed them, and put them to sleep in the middle of the night.

This time, his wife had a disagreement, but it didn't affect the children, and he would still raise them well.

“My mom won’t let me wear this. She says the color makes a little girl look too masculine. She says I should wear pretty, pink dresses.”

Shen Dingkun thought that to ease the children's sadness, he should take them to buy some clothes, so he took the two children to the children's section.

The son, on the other hand, was like a child running wild, grabbing clothes as soon as he found them, prioritizing his own needs.

But her daughter, Qianqian, seemed hesitant to go forward.

Because Shen Dingkun led them to the sports section, and the clothes there didn't have any overly bright colors; most were everyday styles.

Shen Dingkun picked up a tracksuit that suited his daughter and wanted to ask her if she liked it, but he didn't expect to get a somewhat surprising answer.

"Your mother said you're not suited to wearing these kinds of clothes?"

She shook her head slightly and corrected her father, "It's not that it's unsuitable, it's that I can't. I'm a girl, how can I wear such rude clothes?"

She was still young and not very good at expressing herself, but Shen Dingkun understood what she meant.

In that instant, Shen Dingkun could no longer contain his anger.

Why must he teach his child this way?

Zhao Mingyao herself said that she can be a good mother, but would a mother treat her two children differently?

"What else did your mother say to you? Did she tell you to stay away from those sports, which is why you don't like running?"

Shen Dingkun's tone was already restrained.

But Qianqian still keenly noticed her father's unhappiness.

She thought for a moment, then shook her head: "No, Mom didn't forbid me from running..."

My daughter is lying.

Shen Dingkun suddenly couldn't speak.

He's the only breadwinner in his family, so he has a lot of daily tasks. Even though he wants to spend time with his family, he has to take charge of the company for a period of time.

Zhao Mingyao said that she would take care of the children, and he never doubted her, as the children were always very well-behaved.

But this time, he could no longer deceive himself.

"Qianqian, now Daddy wants to ask you to tell me everything Mommy taught you. Can you help Daddy?"
