Chapter 2419: Chapter 2234: Blossoms on the Other Shore (8)

In many families, every individual hopes to be hurt themselves rather than letting their family suffer even a little. But you are the opposite; you choose to hurt your family so you can live happily. In your eyes, family means nothing because of this harm. It’s not important, you can discard them when you want, then come back pretending to be pitiful, begging for forgiveness. When you no longer want them, you casually walk away, abandoning the whole family. Perhaps this is your ultimate goal. Have you ever thought about the pain and suffering you’ve brought to your family? You haven’t thought about it because you cannot resolve this kind of harm. If one day you truly reflect on the damage you’ve caused your father, only then will you understand the pain deep in my heart. Watching my grandfather suffer because of you while I’m powerless to help is incredibly helpless. You can never truly fathom my inner torment. I really don’t know if you are truly my parents or my enemies. If you were my enemies, I could willingly accept that, but you are my mom and dad. Because you are my parents, you choose to hurt me this way, which is something I cannot understand or endure for the rest of my life. If time could truly rewind, even just two years, I would gladly give up everything and never let you return to this family, not even for a few months. I would not let such things happen in this family. At least grandpa wouldn’t live in such pain. He could still smile happily and cheerfully. Seeing grandpa’s smile is the most important thing to me. I can be indifferent to anything, but I can’t ignore grandpa’s smile!"

"Child, I know whatever we say now, you can’t understand. You feel that everything only brings you pain. Please stop saying these things. Share with me some of your past, so I can understand you a bit more."

Zhang Yichen didn’t plan to save his father. He felt that his past school experiences and such should be known by his father, so they better understand how he had lived.

"Since you want to know so badly, let me tell you. At that time, I thought of myself as a genius, but also as an unlucky genius. If it’s not an unlucky genius, then it’s simply a joke, because immature people die heroically for great causes, but mature people live humbly for great causes. Actually, replacing ’great causes’ with ’love’ in that sentence holds true as well. Back then, I truly loved someone sincerely. They made me give up on love. I said, let love die and let me live humbly. At that time, my classmate was in an endless romantic marathon with a girl, but even now they haven’t defined their relationship. Yet he was so stubborn. He said the apples he couldn’t reach are the best apples, so every night after night study, he’d go stand at the hallway, becoming a stone waiting for his wife in the wind. Back then, my classmates always said I had no desires, but you need someone chasing after you. I always believed there wouldn’t be any beautiful girls at our school. My classmate took me to see what he described as a beauty, and everyone thought she was indeed a beauty.

I never lie. After driving myself for a week into night study, completing a whole exercise book, and finishing an entire 200g bottle of Nestlé coffee, yet my math showed no improvement, I proudly announced that I’d cut ties with math. I felt whatever math wanted to do, let it be, I’d stay just like I was. However, after turning against math, I soon scored very high in math exams, almost reaching full marks. The memory of going to the podium to get the exam paper is still clear. The scores were the highest online, the lower scores below. I habitually split from the middle and flipped backwards, only to find few remaining, and didn’t see my envisioned revenge. But I prayed I wasn’t the last one; I absolutely couldn’t be last. Indeed, the last paper wasn’t mine, yet the problem was where my paper was. Just as I was wondering, I saw my name visibly on the top paper. Turns out math is a bully-headed creature.
