“I used to think that one day, I would be able to move Chen Ze’s heart. At that time, I was very confident. I thought that I could simply do my best to change his dislike toward me and fix this loveless marriage. But the truth has proven that I’m just a complete joke! He still doesn’t love me, and without the old master, the Chen family only sees me as his free servant.”

Wen Xi said these words with a bitter smile. Her eyes were either red from the alcohol, or from the chills she was feeling from the Chen family’s behavior. As long as they were mentioned, she could not help but feel cold and disgusted.

Her face was even more delicate and heart-breaking under the candlelight in the room. However, there were no outsiders present, so no one appreciated or pitied her. Only her parents, who were extremely heartbroken, kept looking at her, their eyes full of complexity and heartache!

In fact, Wen Xi wasn’t very good at confiding in others. On the contrary, she was used to hiding her unhappiness and difficulties. In order to not let her family and friends worry about her, she acted like a strong and resilient girl.

Therefore, when Wen Xi poured out her heart and soul to them, Wen Liang and Xiao Ping were shocked. Wen Liang’s eyes widened slightly. There were several times when he wanted to say something, but he slowly swallowed his words back when Wen Xi was pouring out her heart.

He felt that something about his daughter had changed. She seemed to have become more reserved and steady, and her entire temperament had changed as well.

When he first heard that she wanted to divorce Chen Ze, Xiao Ping was stunned. She thought that she had misheard her daughter’s words. Just as she was about to ask, Wen Xi did not give her the chance.

Her precious daughter was so beautiful in the candlelight, but when she looked into Wen Xi’s eyes, Xiao Ping’s heart trembled!

Under Wen Xi’s beautiful appearance, there was a broken soul that had shattered into countless pieces, picked up one by one, and stuck back together.

Wen Xi wanted to get her parents’ support and understanding because the moment she decided to give up on Chen Ze, she had already lost a lot of things. However, she could not lose the support and tolerance of her family members.

Xiao Ping’s doubts and puzzlement were all blocked by Wen Xi’s gaze. Her half-opened mouth didn’t move for a long time as she silently listened to her daughter’s story.

“I know that my decision is very abrupt and unexpected, but I’m serious. I don’t want to continue wasting time on Chen Ze, and you guys can just treat me as a prodigal daughter who has turned back and learned to return after straying from her path!”

Wen Xi suddenly laughed as if she had really let everything go. She looked at her parents next to her and poured herself a glass of sweet and delicious plum wine. After drinking it, she continued, “Isn’t there an old saying that goes ‘stop losses in time’? Dad, Mom, you don’t have to worry about my life after I leave Chen Ze. I will only become better, I swear to you!”

“Finally, I would like to ask for your support in my decision. You are the people I love the most, and also the last pillar of support I can rely on in this world. If you can’t understand my decision here, then I’ll really feel like a failure. I know that I’m not a filial daughter. I’m already in my twenties, but I’m still making you worry about me.”

After saying everything she wanted to say, Wen Xi let out a long sigh as if she was finally at ease. She put down the glass in her hand and looked up at Wen Liang and Xiao Ping in front of her. After sitting up straight, she continued, “Alright! I’ve said what I wanted to say. You can ask me any questions now, and I’ll answer them one by one. I won’t hide anything from you!”

After she finished speaking, she chuckled with red eyes and sat up straight obediently, like a good student waiting for the teacher to ask a question.

Wen Liang looked at her and did not know how to react. He had a lot of questions to ask Wen Xi, but looking at his daughter’s red eyes, his heart trembled with pain!
