Tangtang shouted towards the pavilion: "Mommy, I met a very nice sister. She said she would take you to play with the little butterfly."

Bai Ning turned her head and looked over, and that beautiful pale face came into view. It was a beautiful pure white, but the eyes were dull and lifeless, without any desire for life.

Tong Yao's heart tightened: "Sister, your seat is a bit dangerous. Come over here quickly. Let's attract little butterflies together. Look how cute Tangtang is."

"Don't be so depressed. There is nothing in this world that is insurmountable. How can you bear to abandon your child? How pitiful it would be for her to have no one to protect her in the future."

"...But he doesn't want me anymore. We grew up together. He was clearly pursuing me and wanted to marry me, but why did his heart change?"

"He was before, he's completely different now. I'm in so much pain."

Bai Ning said with despair in her eyes: "He is the only one I have. I have no family left. He said he would give me a home, but now he has given it to someone else."

Tong Yao was silent for a moment before she said, "You may feel pain now, but sometimes people just have to keep going with the pain, waiting for an opportunity to let go."

"Look at me. I was abducted when I was little. The people I thought were my family were actually traffickers. When my biological parents came to find me, I was very happy. I thought I had a family."

"But after I returned, they wanted me to marry abroad through an arranged marriage. Regardless of my wishes, they forced me to do things I didn't want to do under the pretext of doing it for my own good."

"I will be sad too, but life still has to go on. If you are unhappy, then ask for more money to have fun. As long as you let go of yourself, no one can hurt you."

Bai Ning couldn't control her tears.

Tong Yao continued, "Some people can accompany you for a while, even when things go your way. It's enough for you to be happy during that experience. The process is more important than the result."

"Every day of happiness is earned. If you are gone, who will give your daughter hope? The father belongs to someone else, and the mother is gone. She is not yet an adult and has no ability to survive."

"When one tragedy occurs, another tragedy follows."

Bai Ning's heart moved slightly, and she looked at her daughter with guilt in her eyes. She took out her cell phone with trembling hands and dialed the number engraved in her heart.

[I agree to divorce you, but I have a condition. I want a house in a flower town as a souvenir. This is where we fell in love. I hope you can fulfill my wish.]

[As for property, I have 10 million in cash and 100,000 per month for child support. You can come visit the child anytime. I won't say anything bad about you in front of Tangtang. You will always be a good father.]

[If you promised, come pick me up and we'll go through the paperwork. Also... thank you for being with me for ten years and giving me my only family in the world.]

There was a long silence on the other end of the line, someone wondering what they were thinking about. Soon, the woman's shrill voice arguing could be heard, and the man's voice was hoarse: "Okay, but I can only give you five million, and the child support is fifty thousand a month."

[As for the house in Flower Town, it's too expensive, so I can't buy it for now. However, I can rent it to you for twenty years, and I'll give you all the bags and jewelry I gave you as a gift.]

Bai Ning was crying, knowing that he would bargain, and that a half-off would be good enough. She had originally quoted a high price, so... that was good enough.

Life must go on, right? What's the point of nagging? When the man's patience runs out, she won't even have the initiative in negotiations.

[Okay, it's a deal. You take me to complete the formalities as soon as possible.]

After hanging up the phone, Bai Ning collapsed as if exhausted. Looking at her daughter's confused face, she forced a smile, helped Shi Tou up, and walked towards them step by step.

Whispering softly: "Tangtang, come and hold your mother. Do you like it here? This will be our home from now on."

"I don't like it. Then why don't you come here too, Dad?"

"...Dad has to be busy with work and can't be here. From now on, you and Mom will live here and go to school here too. You can see flowers every day, okay?"
