Li Jingyu took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and slowly said, "Dad, even if Mom has her problems, this is not a reason for you to betray the family. The damage you have caused to Mom and me by doing this is irreparable."
Li Kechao lowered his head, his face full of guilt: "Xiaoyu, Dad knows he was wrong. Dad was possessed by evil spirits at the time and could not control himself. But Dad really feels depressed and painful in this family."
Li Jingyu bit her lip and said, "Have you ever thought about how I can believe in love and marriage in the future if you do this?"
"In my heart, you and mom are a very happy couple with a good relationship. I thought our family was happy and complete, but now it's all gone to waste."
Li Kechao raised his head, his eyes full of regret: "Xiaoyu, Daddy is sorry for you. But you can't lose faith in love and marriage because of Daddy's mistakes. Everyone's life is different. Daddy hopes that you can find someone who truly loves and understands you in the future."
Li Jingyu was silent for a long time, tears welling up in her eyes again: "So what are you going to do now? Can you and mom go back to the past?"
Li Kechao shook his head helplessly: "I don't know, maybe the rift between us is too big and it's hard to repair. But no matter what, Dad will try his best to make up for the damage to you and Mom."
Li Jingyu wiped away her tears and said with a firm voice: "Dad, I hope you can truly recognize your mistakes and work hard to correct them."
"If you still love this family, you should have a good talk with your mother instead of just blaming her."
"If...if you want to choose that young, beautiful woman and son who understands you, then go home and explain it to my mother."
"But let me remind you, Master Shen said that woman is after your money."
Li Kechao nodded: "Xiaoyu, Dad knows everything..."
"But she did give me a son."
"Can you give me some time to think about it? Don't tell your mother about this yet. I'm afraid she can't stand it."
Li Jingyu was obviously disappointed. She originally thought that after she talked to her father, he would realize that he was wrong and would cut off contact with that woman as soon as possible.
I just didn't expect... I didn't expect...
Li Jingyu smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Dad, at this time, you are still hesitating?"
"Even if my mother is not well, she has lived with you for more than 20 years! Even if she has no credit, she has worked hard! I have said so much to you, but you are still thinking about that woman and the son she gave birth to!"
Li Kechao said with a painful look on his face: "Xiaoyu, Daddy is also confused. On one hand, there is the relationship with your mother for many years and our family; on the other hand, there is that innocent child. I...I really don't know what to do."
"Are you just going to leave it alone? What about the child? What if that woman makes a scene? Are you going to let everyone know about this? Do you want to save my reputation?"
"Don't push me. Dad knows he's wrong. You have to give me some time to think of a solution!"
Li Jingyu shouted angrily: "Dad, wake up! That child is innocent, but are my mother and I not innocent?"
"Mom has wasted all these years of her youth on you, and now you are still thinking about the woman and child who destroyed our family!"
After saying that, Li Jingyu opened the car door and ran out crying.
"Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu! Where are you going?" Li Kechao hurriedly got out of the car to chase her, but Li Jingyu ran too fast.
Li Kechao stood there blankly, his heart full of regret and entanglement. He knew that his behavior deeply hurt his family, but he felt that he had an unshirkable responsibility for his newborn son.
No matter what, it was his flesh and blood! His blood flowed in his body! And he was a kid...
Li Jingyu walked aimlessly on the street, and it started to drizzle without her knowing.
Tears mixed with rain and flowed down her angry cheeks.
She wanted to go home and miss her mother.
But I was afraid that I would not be able to control my emotions and grievances and tell my mother about it.
I was also afraid that my mother would notice something and ask me all kinds of questions.
Li Jingyu walked in the rain like this, her steps became heavier and her heart became heavier.
The shops she passed by emitted warm lights, and the people inside were laughing and talking happily, but she felt as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.
The bench in the small park on the street looked particularly deserted in the rain. She walked over and sat down slowly. Raindrops hit her body, and the coldness seeped in little by little, but she seemed to have lost consciousness.
She looked at the lights in the distance, her heart full of confusion and fear. Home, that once warm harbor, was now full of unknown fear for her.
She was afraid to go back and face her father's dilemma and her mother's possible sadness. She was afraid that the family would fall apart because of her father's mistakes.
Li Jingyu hugged her arms tightly, trying to get a little warmth. She recalled the time when her family of three played together in the park when she was a child. The happiness at that time was so simple and pure. But now, everything has become so complicated and painful.
She didn't know how to face this sudden change, and didn't know how to save this broken home. She was afraid of losing her father, and even more afraid of losing her mother, and afraid of losing the place where she grew up.
The rain was still falling, Li Jingyu's hair was soaked and stuck to her face. Her eyes were empty and her heart was full of contradictions.
Going back might mean uncovering the scar that has not yet been noticed by her mother; if she doesn't go back, she has nowhere to go. This world is so big, but there is no corner where she can feel at ease.
As time went by, Li Jingyu's body began to tremble, and the cold and fear made her teeth chatter. But the struggle in her heart still prevented her from getting up. She was like a wounded little animal, licking her wounds alone in the dark, not knowing where to go.
Just then, Li Jingyu's phone rang.
Her desperate eyes regained a bit of clarity.
Li Jingyu subconsciously thought that it must be his father calling.
The father realized his mistake and wanted to take her home.
But when she saw the caller ID, there was a hint of resentment and helplessness in Li Jingyu's eyes.
"Hello..." Li Jingyu tried her best to control her emotions and called softly.
"Xiaoyu, are you free tonight? Let's watch a movie together? Didn't you say last time that you wanted to eat Qiaotou Hotpot? It's just right for a midnight snack after the movie."
Zhao Bin's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Li Jingyu was silent for a long time, "Sorry Zhao Bin, I... I have something to do. Let's do it another day..."
