Become a stepmother and save the male protagonist of the painful literary school

"At that time, his mother suddenly became seriously ill, and Xiao Mu was the one who stayed by his mother's bedside. He stayed by his mother's side the whole time. He cried on the phone and begged me to go back and let him have surgery. But I was powerless."

"He's hated me ever since."

The pain that had been accumulating between his brows emerged as he spoke, surging like waves.

My fingers pressed on the armrest assembly of the car, and the fingertips turned slightly white.

Realizing that he was getting a little emotional, he closed his eyes and tried to control himself out of habit.

"For many days afterwards, I regretted not staying in Jiangcheng because things went in an uncontrollable direction. I felt helpless."

The last four words were trembling, revealing a sense of powerlessness in facing reality.

"So it's normal for Xiaomu to hate me. I don't blame him."

It seems like a sigh, and helpless.

a long time.

When he opened his eyes again, his emotions were completely calm. His peach blossom eyes were clear and bright, without a trace of sadness.

"It's a matter between adults, but the victim is the child. I owe him a lot... You just asked me if I love him. I do love him, but I also feel a lot of guilt."

"I tried my best to meet all his demands and make him live comfortably, which also made up for the harm I caused him at that time."

Jian Yan's eyes were fixed on one place blankly, as if he was in a daze.

She didn't know how to describe her feelings after hearing these words. It was a mixture of emotions.

A fourteen-year-old child watched his mother die in front of him, in large part because his father failed to arrive in time. What a trauma this must have been for him!

He could do nothing beside the hospital bed and could only watch with red eyes as his mother screamed at the top of her lungs and his father was helpless.

The doctors and nurses gave repeated advice, the relatives in my ears were angry and roaring, and there was the cold wall outside the operating room.

He was a very proud child, but he cried and begged his father on the phone. I can't imagine how many times he cried in the hospital.

Even so, my mother's life could not be saved.

It turns out that extreme personalities are shaped bit by bit.

If it were her, she would also feel resentful.

When Tong Ruixiao finished speaking, the only sound left in his ears was the faint sound of vehicles rushing past.

She then slowly asked, "Do you hate your ex-wife?"

"Why do you ask that suddenly?"

He didn't give a direct answer, but that was considered as his acquiescence.

really.

Tong Ruixiao had a bad relationship with his ex-wife, so when his ex-wife was suffering from cancer, he still put the company's business first. He assumed that as long as there were top doctors and service conditions, he didn't need to accompany her.

How cold and heartless.

Thinking of her abdominal pain during her menstrual period, he would take a day off to stay in the hospital. But when his ex-wife was seriously ill with pancreatic cancer, he flew abroad to discuss a project, as if he was staying out of the matter!

It is right for such people to be hated by children.

Jian Yan felt a chill in her heart. How could this person be so cold and indifferent?

No wonder Tong Huaimu always said at the beginning, "My dad doesn't care about anything except interests, so you should just give up." It turns out that he was not saying that to humiliate her, but was sincere.

How could a normal person go abroad when his wife is seriously ill? What if an emergency occurs and cannot be handled quickly?

How much must he hate his wife for throwing her life to someone else...

I really don't know whether I should praise this person for being honest and telling me the truth, or despise him for his indifference.

"She is your wife after all, but you flew her abroad when she was seriously ill. Isn't that a bit cruel and callous?"

He suddenly raised his eyes and looked directly into her eyes, "I am also your husband, don't you hate me?"

Jian Yan got goosebumps all over her body in an instant.

The pupils shrank slightly.

His words! Pointed the finger at her!

She was filled with anger.

She was forced into marriage, was he also forced into marriage? How could they be confused?

Tong Ruixiao's eyes were sharp behind the lenses. "Let me ask you another way. If I were seriously ill, would you be willing to visit me?"

She remained silent on the surface, just staring at him with her eyes, but she said in her heart - she didn't want to.

Tong Ruixiao waited for her answer, tapping the armrest of the car with his fingers, again and again, neither fast nor slow, but making people feel inexplicably oppressed.

"If you don't answer, I'll speak for you."

"You will heal me. This is the obligation and duty of a couple to support each other. But you will never visit me because there is no affection between us."

"Right?"

His gaze pressed over, his tone calm and steady.

Jian Yan felt uneasy when he looked at her. She avoided his gaze, but her heartbeat still couldn't calm down.

She hadn't rejected him to this extent, but it was almost there. If this situation really happened, she would still visit him once or twice, but it would only be for the sake of face, and she would not be sincere.

At this time, I heard him say quietly: "Why do you think it's cruel and cold that I can't do it when you can't do it yourself?"

She: "You and your ex-wife are married, and I am in a marriage of convenience, how can we treat it the same way?"

He replied: "They are the same in that 'both parties are not willing to do so', how can they be different?"

"..."

She remained silent, but countless possibilities flashed through her mind.

It's not voluntary on both sides...

Was his first marriage not voluntary? Was he forced into it?

But he said he married his ex-wife because she was pregnant. The child is his, who can force him?

what is the problem?

Tong Ruixiao paused for a moment when he saw that she didn't speak.

He asked calmly, "I can use the resources at my disposal to arrange for her the best attending physician, the most effective medicine, the most comfortable ward, and the most attentive nurse. Is this not unfair treatment? If this is considered unfair treatment, how many people can offer better conditions?"

Jian Yan thought that the material conditions were indeed very good. Moreover, ordinary people could not do it, only those who had the resources could do it.

"I thought I had done my best and had not let her down. I couldn't understand her last request, but I rushed back as soon as possible."

Not only did he not feel sorry, he even repaid evil with kindness.

If Jian Yan knew how his farce-like marriage came about, would she still be able to say the word "cruel and cold-blooded"?

But he will never mention what happened again.

The person has passed away, the entanglement and illness are over, and not mentioning it is a sign of respect for the deceased.

He continued:

"You think I was cruel and unkind for not coming back in time to discuss the project, and that she was infinitely pitiful. But since I have arranged everything for her, it really doesn't matter whether I show up or not."

"Besides, there are jobs to be done and countless people in the company to be taken care of."

"For a loveless marriage, I have done the best I can."

After hearing this, Jian Yan already understood what he was thinking.

From the perspective of his wife and children, and even her as a spectator, he was heartless and disloyal for not showing up when his wife needed him the last moment.
