Chapter 87 I Love You So Much
"Old Lin, I've been a failure in this life. I wasn't a good son, I wasn't a good husband, and I wasn't a good father. Song Yi is such a good boy, yet he has a father like me."
"Factory manager, you've had too much to drink."
"I wasn't drunk, I just regret it, I'm really regretful." Song Feng wiped his face: "Do you know, the person outside the door just now was my ex-wife, and Song Yi is our son."
Song Feng seemed lost in memories, slowly recounting his story.
He and his ex-wife were childhood sweethearts, though "childhood sweethearts" isn't quite accurate; they grew up together in the same compound. As a child, Song Feng was a mischievous boy, always running around and never wanting to play with girls. His ex-wife, however, was different; she always liked to chase after him.
When they were young, it was fine, but as they grew up, the neighbors and family would tease them, saying that they would definitely be together in the future.
Song Feng, now a teenager, is a cold and aloof person with his own ideals and goals. He always refuses to do anything like this. However, his ex-wife is different. She always looks shy when the topic comes up, which makes the elders look at the two of them even more kindly.
Song Feng had never intended to marry Cheng Mei, but his family and those around him were pressuring him to do so.
In the words of my family, Chengmei has had such a hard life. She loves you so much, how could you let her down?
Yes, he would be letting Cheng Mei down. In everyone's eyes, if Song Feng didn't marry Cheng Mei, he would be letting her down.
But heaven and earth can bear witness that there is nothing between him and Chengmei. Every time Song Feng teases them, he resolutely refuses, saying that the two of them are impossible. But it seems that everyone is blind, acting as if he is just young and arrogant, saying one thing but meaning another. Then they all show a "I know, I know" look.
Do they really understand?
At first, Song Feng thought they understood, but later experiences told him that he was too young. They all thought he was being hypocritical and that he really liked Cheng Mei. Otherwise, why would Cheng Mei keep talking about him and even reject many suitors for him?
Even if Song Feng had a mouth full of mouths, he couldn't explain it clearly.
Later, as he got older, his family pressured him to take responsibility for his ex-wife, and even when he had a girl he liked, everyone pretended not to see it.
No matter how unwilling he was, his family insisted that he marry her!
In your family's words: "Chengmei has sacrificed so much for you, when are you going to marry her if not now! Since you like her, marry her and don't let Chengmei suffer!"
No one ever asked him if he had been wronged. Even if he said he had never liked Chengmei, it was no use; everyone still assumed he did.
Unable to resist his family, Song Feng eventually married her. The only person he felt sorry for was the girl he loved. Fortunately, it was all just a crush and hadn't blossomed into anything.
After marriage, the young couple would live their lives together. Once they were actually together, Song Feng found it even harder to stand his partner.
But marriage means responsibility, so Song Feng suppressed his temper and tried to reason with his partner.
Tell your ex-wife to stop crying all the time, make her happier every day, and let her find something she enjoys doing.
But it was no use; those words seemed to sink without a trace.
Later, his ex-wife became pregnant, and Song Feng was filled with anticipation for the child. That period was arguably the most harmonious time in their relationship. Song Feng thought it could last forever, but later he was told that he had been too idealistic.
After giving birth, Chengmei became even more erratic, constantly using the excuse of feeling unwell to send Song Feng home from work. Once or twice was bearable, but after three, four, and many times, Song Feng couldn't take it anymore. He tried to reason with Chengmei, but she just cried. Everyone thought Song Feng was a terrible person! "Chengmei has given you children, how can you treat her like this! Are you having an affair?!"
Anyway, all sorts of bad things, both imaginable and unimaginable, were forced onto him, leaving Song Feng speechless once again.
Song Feng was exhausted, but he couldn't get rid of it. Besides, they had a child together, and he wouldn't get a divorce even for the sake of the child.
And so life went on, until one day, Song Feng discovered Lu Qian and found that Cheng Mei was always hiding in Lu Qian's arms and crying.
Song Feng didn't feel angry at all; he just felt that if Cheng Mei really fell in love with someone else, he could finally be free.
He didn't care about being cuckolded; he only cared that Chengmei would stop bothering him from now on, and that people around him wouldn't say he was heartless and had wronged Chengmei anymore. Sometimes, when he thought about it, he felt that he had been too despicable back then, but he really had no other choice. What could he do? He would rather Chengmei be cuckolded by him.
Song Feng even thought that he wouldn't mind if Cheng Mei didn't get a divorce and had affairs with other people.
Ironically, when Chengmei saw him, she cried even harder in Lu Qian's arms. Lu Qian glared at him angrily, and out of nowhere, his parents and Chengmei's parents appeared. Everyone started blaming Song Feng, accusing him of wronging Chengmei and causing her so much pain. It was all his fault!
Song Feng's spine was broken again and again. Looking at those familiar faces, Song Feng felt only horror. What terrified him even more was that he discovered Cheng Mei was using his son to lure him home. His son had a fever once or twice, and accidentally fell and bumped into things once or twice. By the time he discovered the truth, his son was already emaciated. He had always thought that his son was unwell, but he never expected that it was all Cheng Mei's way of keeping him at home.
Song Feng finally couldn't take it anymore. He moved out with his son and even divorced Cheng Mei.
Faced with accusations from both families, Song Feng remained remarkably calm this time. He simply said, "I sever all ties with you!" and then left without looking back, even leaving the capital and coming to this small place.
To eliminate any future troubles, he did something even more ruthless: he published his divorce and severing ties with all his family and relatives in all the newspapers. It can be said that he was ruthless to the point of cutting off all ties completely!
He just didn't expect that even though he had hidden so far away, Chengmei still found him. His parents had even called him to persuade him to stay.
Ridiculous, so ridiculous.
Could it be that all those newspaper announcements severing ties were fake?
Song Feng laughed sarcastically, "You know what? My ex-wife, she's remarried, but everyone still thinks I wronged her and that I should take responsibility. They say I should treat Cheng Mei well even for the sake of the child, but I could never be good to her even for the sake of the child!" What Cheng Mei did to the child was something Song Feng could never forgive in his life!
How dare this woman show her face again?!
If there hadn't been someone at that time, Song Feng would have wanted to beat this woman up and throw her out of sight!
Do you really think Song Feng is still the same person who was always worried about this and that?
All he cares about now is his son!
I really want to complain about those stories where the female lead deeply loves the male lead, but he doesn't reciprocate and she gets verbally abused, then the male lead suffers a lot more, and finally, a perfect ending. What's wrong with a male lead not liking the female lead? Is he wrong for being too cold? Too indifferent to the female lead? Then the male lead is pathetic; he's definitely just a tool for the female lead.
