Tang Xianfang couldn't remember when the thought of divorce first came to her.
One day, she suddenly had the urge to divorce Chang Pengfei and didn't want to live with him anymore.
There was no cheating, infidelity, or boredom involved; none of those things occurred.
Her feelings for Chang Pengfei had always been lukewarm, and after her mother-in-law passed away, they became even more stagnant.
Since starting work, she's been so busy she's practically never home, neglecting her family responsibilities. Reality keeps telling her that she needs Chang Pengfei as a husband to stay home and take care of their daughter.
Before the three-year period was up, Tang Xianfang solemnly proposed a divorce to Chang Pengfei.
Recalling what Old Man Qiao said in the mourning hall that year, it all came true.
Chang Pengfei could have clung to the divorce out of his insignificant pride, but after thinking it over, he readily agreed.
In less than three years, he has changed a lot.
Without his mother, he essentially lost all support.
My maternal grandmother passed away before my mother. After my mother's death, my father stopped caring about anything and took my mother's ashes around the world, saying he wanted to see more of this beautiful world for my mother.
Despite suffering from a serious illness, he seemed unaffected and persevered in upholding his beliefs.
Chef Qiao also disappeared after that day, and the restaurant became entirely his own business, as it was the foundation for his family's livelihood. He had to devote more energy to it.
Life and family, after his mother left, put him under immense pressure time and time again, which made him think more maturely.
Tang Xianfang wants a divorce, fine, he has no objection.
As long as Tang Xianfang promises that she will only have Chang'an as her child and that her attitude towards the child will never change.
Tang Xianfang readily signed the agreement that Chang Pengfei had prepared.
After the divorce, Tang Xianfang began arranging her move out. She did not take any of the family property, believing that Chang Pengfei's love for Chang An would ultimately belong solely to Chang An.
Tang Xianfang moved into the house allocated to her by her work unit.
The Tang family arrived upon hearing the news.
Years have passed. Tang's father, who was sent to a remote area because of a mistake at work, returned to the capital with his extreme pursuit of a career in government. However, he was soon diagnosed with a serious illness and had to step down to the second line. The following year, he took early retirement due to health reasons and became a frequent visitor to the hospital.
Mr. Tang was very dissatisfied with Tang Xianfang's style of not giving any prior notice: "Your divorce is not just a matter for one person, it concerns both of our families. You divorced so easily, but have you thought about your sister, your brother, and your nephews and nieces!"
When Tang's father returned to the capital, everything had changed. The Tang family declined, while the Chang family rose to prominence.
The eldest daughter is unemployed and has a difficult relationship with her in-laws, leading a miserable life. She even has to rely on her own family for financial support. The younger son is not good at studying and is inflexible. Although he works at his second daughter's in-laws' company, he looks down on him.
His most promising daughter was his second daughter, who had never been valued by him.
Unfortunately, his promising second daughter was not of the same mind as him and was only willing to stay with her good-for-nothing husband.
The Chang family had everything going for them: their children were successful, their company was thriving, and even the least successful of them all married their most accomplished second daughter.
When Tang's father returned, he was dissatisfied with the current situation and caused a lot of trouble. Later, he realized that the marriage alliance with the Chang family must not be broken.
If his children are not successful, he will raise the third generation, and then the Chang family line will play a significant role.
Tang Xianfang suddenly got a divorce, disrupting her father's plans that had been in the works for many years, which infuriated him.
Tang's mother, always her husband's lapdog, chimed in, "Yes, yes, Xianfang, you're always so busy with work that you don't know anything about the family situation. Chang Pengfei shouldn't have agreed to the divorce for your daughter's sake, but he did anyway. I think he has ulterior motives..."
As Tang's mother became more and more agitated, she strayed from the topic, and Tang's father, growing impatient, pushed her aside.
Tang's father seemed to be issuing a top-down order: "I said I don't agree to your divorce! Go back and remarry immediately!"
