She vaguely remembered that the days before their divorce were incredibly tense.

During those days, Su Jianguo went to the fields with a gloomy face every day.

Han Jingru, on the other hand, was always on the go, rarely at home.

She genuinely couldn't understand how the two of them could have a child under such circumstances.

Han Jingru felt slightly embarrassed, as she felt somewhat uncomfortable discussing these things in front of her daughter.

She murmured, "I... I can't help it, your father..."

I thought nothing would happen. I've always gotten by like this, and I've always been safe.

Su Nianxue understood what she meant.

No wonder no younger siblings have been born in the family all these years.

Perhaps that's why the couple's relationship became increasingly strained.

Actually, this is a good thing in a way.

If there are other children in the family, then there will only be one more person suffering.

"You made up your mind a long time ago that you wouldn't stay with him, right?" Su Nianxue calmly stated this fact.

Those deep, dark eyes seemed to see right through people's hearts, revealing all her hidden thoughts.

Han Jingru was somewhat afraid to look her in the eye; in front of those eyes, she always felt very lowly.

"Nianxue, I'm sorry..."

“I understand…” Su Nianxue sighed, feeling neither joy nor sorrow, as if this matter had nothing to do with her.

She acted like an outsider.

Actually, this is for the best. Two people who have never been on the same wavelength don't have to force themselves to be together for a lifetime.

They didn't have to be like Zhou Mingjie's parents, bound together for life and tormenting each other for life.

After they separated, they each started new families.

Su Jianguo had three more children, and his household was much more lively than before.

As for Han Jingru, she is now living the life she wanted: a comfortable life and a considerate husband.

This should be a fortunate thing for both of them.

So, in a sense, they all got what they wanted... happiness!

As for her, she seems insignificant in the face of the happiness of both parties.

Han Jingru bit her lip, her eyes slightly reddening.

Her calm and composed demeanor was what pained her the most.

She would rather she curse and accuse her of being irresponsible.

Because of her neglect, she suffered a lot.

But no, there was nothing at all; she simply said, "I understand."

"Nianxue, I'm sorry."

Seeing that her tears were about to overflow again, Su Nianxue wiped her forehead and said helplessly, "I didn't mean to blame you."

It's human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm; there's nothing wrong with wanting a good life.

You've gotten what you wanted now.

I have nothing to blame you for, and I don't want to blame you.

What's done is done. From now on, just live your life in peace!

Xiaoxue's illness has been cured, so your family can now enjoy your lives in peace and don't need to worry about me anymore.

I've grown up, gotten married, and have children.

And as you've seen, I'm doing quite well now.

She could be considered to have turned misfortune into blessing; Gu Yanbai was probably God's compensation for her years of suffering!

So she has nothing to complain about.

However, she couldn't get close to either of them.

"Yes, I've noticed that these past few days; he's been very good to you all."

As the old saying goes, seeing is believing.

Now that I've seen him with my own eyes, I can finally rest easy. Han Jingru felt a little melancholy. She now understood that some things, once missed, can never be found again.

The little girl she remembered has now grown up and become a mother.

Su Nianxue smiled faintly, thinking of Lin Xiaoxue, "These next few days, you should take Xiaoxue around to see the sights."

She's been in the city for a long time and is quite curious about our rural area.

"You rarely come all this way, so consider it an opportunity for her to broaden her horizons."

Han Jingru sensed a hint of estrangement in her words.

Despite the dull pain in her chest, she truly had nothing to say.

Putting myself in their shoes, if I were in their shoes, I probably wouldn't forgive so easily either.

She forced a smile, "I think Xiaoxue is really attached to you."

"She might be making a fuss about wanting to come see you again in just a few days after you go back."

"As long as she doesn't mind that our country is dirty, our door will always be open for her."

She doesn't have much of a family bond, so having such a cute and adorable younger sister is quite nice.

"What are you saying, child? What's so vulgar about it?"

I think Xiaoxue would be very happy if she knew. Her voice was slightly choked with emotion.

After going through all this, although it was somewhat different from what she had imagined, at least the two sisters now knew of each other's existence.

We'll definitely get along well from now on.

"Didn't Xiaoxue say anything?"

Her birthday is in a few days, so why don't you stay here a few more days and leave after her birthday?

As her older sister, I don't have much to give her, so let me help her organize a small birthday party! Su Nianxue said with some emotion, "It's such a long distance away."

I don't know when we'll meet again!

"Okay, then I'll agree on Xiaoxue's behalf." A big smile spread across her lips, but tears welled up in her eyes.

Time flies, and soon it was Lin Xiaoxue's birthday.
