My Alleged Husband

Chapter 2224: Chapter 2057: Like a Shadow, Always by Your Side

Unconsciously, a long time has passed again. We agreed to forget each other, without words, dreams are born and die. But do you still remember me now?

Throughout this year, Zhang Yichen has been watching his family live each day the same way. He felt that his father was enduring his wife’s torment day after day, which he had to silently endure without any means to express the pain in his heart.

Actually, even if no one feels anything throughout the year, Old Master Zhang still feels it deeply in his heart.

He watches his daughter-in-law quietly cover his son with a blanket at night. He knows that his daughter-in-law is finally moved by her son. There are some things he understands but as an elder, he finds it hard to speak out, so he only pays silent attention. Until one day, after they fully understand what they truly want, they will know what they should do with their lives.

Ran Zhihan looked at her father, knowing he would make so many sacrifices for her mother, and she truly envied him. Although her husband used to be willing to make sacrifices for her at any cost, since a quarrel, he has never again made any sacrifices for her unconditionally.

Seeing her parents like this now, she truly feels jealous, envious, and resentful. But she ultimately chose this ending herself. What right does she have to blame others for the way things turned out now? Each step of her life was taken by herself. Since she has come to this point by mistake, what right does she have to complain or to blame others? It would be better to reflect on why everything has become so passive.

Zhang Yichen looks at his wife’s distracted expression. He knows what is on her mind. There are words that, as a couple, they no longer have a common language for, making it difficult to express. Some things, though unspoken, remain lodged in the heart, with no way to forget.

Even if they live together disregarding past grievances, some scars have already taken root in their hearts, deeply etched into their bones. Is it not the outcome their partner chose?

Old Master Zang never knew the rift between his grandson and granddaughter-in-law. He always thought their marriage was loving and harmonious.

To others, the loving couple may still face discord over certain matters, and nearly break apart, but who knows what kind of agreement they reached with each other.

The path one chooses should be walked quietly without letting others know. Why trouble others with one’s chosen path? Every decision leads to a different outcome. What other choice is there?

Though each is present, their thoughts are drastically different, with no one knowing what the other truly thinks.

Like a couple, sharing a bed but dreaming separate dreams.

Such days make everyone’s heart torment, each just wanting to safely live their desired life, without contemplating the events that have led to all this. Why continue interfering in others’ lives? Properly managing one’s life should be enough. Isn’t joy for one’s family the most important?

At this moment, Zhang Yichen suddenly understands the tacit understanding between his parents—that inner, indescribable bond only achieved through deep mutual understanding.

Like the connection between his wife and himself, needing no words; they can perceive each other’s deepest thoughts. Such tacit understanding is true love.

Zhang Zhentian said to Xia Jing, "Thank you sincerely. Thank you for making so many changes for me. I never imagined there would be such harmony between us. This understanding isn’t easily felt by anyone else, it’s honed between us, and I’m truly happy for our relationship!

Thank you for changing so much for me, for letting go of your past conceited notions and gradually accepting me. It shows I exist deeply in your heart. You genuinely wish to see if we can continue, and to form a complete family. You don’t want our loved ones to suffer because of us!

I know that over the years, I’ve always been in your heart; perhaps you weren’t aware of my place there. You’ve been self-deceiving, thinking you could give up everything for her, even our marriage. However, over the years, my presence has turned into a habit, a reliance for you, with no way to discard me. I’m always present in your heart, so why not acknowledge it?

Regardless, your willingness to change for me today is my greatest happiness. I won’t demand more, as I’m not greedy. Though others may vie for your affection, I only hope you stay with me. May I provide you with joy and not painful memories, for that is not the outcome I desire!"

"I know. What does admitting your place in my heart change? I’ve altered for you, but truly can’t forget him entirely. Some matters require your understanding; although it may hurt you, all I can say is sorry. Certain harm is inevitable. Since I’ve chosen to change, please trust me. I wish to see if we can continue. I am not heartless; I only wish to hold onto my happy marriage!"

If you ask about our first meeting, what significance does a love-filled first encounter hold?
