Miao's mother tugged at Miao's father, signaling him not to be so arbitrary. Miao's father didn't even look at his wife, but remained resolute: "Then what do you think you can do to compensate my daughter for the physical and psychological harm she has suffered?"

Although Miao Cuixia was quite critical of Miao Yijia's deliberate concealment of the matter, she wanted her son to divorce Xia Xuan more than anything else. Therefore, she used Miao's father's criticism to put pressure on him: "Songbai, your uncle is right. No matter what, Jiajia was hurt. You are a man and should take responsibility. Jiajia is still lying in bed, so weak. Can you bear it?"

Miao's father continued, "At this point, your wishes are no longer important. This is what you must do."

Chen Songbai couldn't bear the pressure anymore and broke down, "What about Xiaoxuan? Who will make up for the damage she suffered?"

Xia Xuan pursed her lips, feeling trapped in a tangled dilemma.

After a few seconds of silence, Father Chen spoke up, "Songbai, just do as your uncle says! I discussed this with your uncle and aunt over the phone before they arrived. You should get your divorce as soon as possible and marry Jiajia. Even though the child is gone, this decision remains unchanged."

Xia Xi was speechless as she watched the farce unfold before her. This was exactly what she was worried about: even with all the evidence, Miao Yijia would still insist she and Chen Songbai had had sex.

No one cares whether the child is Chen Songbai's or not.

After all, only she and Chen Songbai knew what happened that night. Chen Songbai didn't remember it, but it was all because of her words.

Things have reached a complete stalemate.

Chen Songbai glanced at his mother, the mother who controlled his life all the time, then looked at his father, the father who was always taciturn and stubborn, then looked at his uncle with a stern face and aggressive attitude, his aunt with an expressionless face, Miao Yijiajia who was lying on the bed pretending to be pitiful, and finally looked at Xia Xuan who was gentle and quiet in his mind but was now exhausted.

He wanted to touch Xia Xuan's face, but as soon as he raised his hand, he realized that he was not worthy.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoxuan." Chen Songbai moved his lips.

Xia Xuan's heart sank. The word "I'm sorry" showed that he had made his choice. She raised the corner of her lips slightly and gave him a slightly sad smile.

That's fine.

Everyone was relieved.

No need to be trapped in this tangled ball of threads, struggling and tied up with no way out.

His choice gave everyone a way out, but she was a little sad.

But life is long and there is nothing that we cannot bear.

Her grandmother, mother, and sisters have all experienced all kinds of difficulties and have overcome them. There is no reason for her to be cowardly and incompetent and vulnerable.
