Chapter 1654: Chapter 1295:

Wen Yu is the youngest of the three sisters, and though she’s usually introverted, at this moment she couldn’t help but say, "Divorce is good, this way Auntie won’t argue with Dad anymore and make our house a mess."

Regarding what Wen Yue’s three sisters said, Wen Siyuan reacted by glancing deeply at Wen Yi. Then, he spoke, "About Pengpeng’s mom... since you already know, I won’t say much more. I’m calling you to the study now because I want to tell you that from now on, it’s just you three sisters, Dad, and Pengpeng living together..."

Before he could finish, Wen Siyuan was abruptly interrupted by Wen Yi: "Dad, you’re not planning to find someone else?"

"I won’t find anyone else."

Wen Siyuan affirmed.

Seeing that he didn’t seem to be lying, Wen Yue and the other sisters were momentarily stunned.

"You’re all grown, and Dad’s busy with work. There’s no need to bring someone else into the family, lest... lest you and Pengpeng suffer grievances." At this point, Wen Siyuan paused briefly, then continued, "Dad knows Pengpeng’s mom made you suffer a lot, but back then you were all young. Having no woman at home to take care of you definitely wouldn’t work. Maybe you blamed Dad a lot, but Dad doesn’t blame you, after all, it’s Dad who couldn’t recognize people clearly, bringing such a person into our home..."

Seeing Wen Yue and the sisters’ eyes collectively redden, Wen Siyuan’s heart filled with guilt. Yet, he didn’t stop speaking and continued:

"Now that Pengpeng’s mom has left our family, Dad will return to work at the unit tomorrow morning. At home, it will just be you four siblings. Dad hopes you can take good care of yourselves,

and take good care of Pengpeng... No matter what, Pengpeng and you three sisters are all Dad’s children. Maybe because of that woman you didn’t like your brother much in the past, but Dad knows you’re all good kids. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have given Pengpeng an extra bowl while cooking or helped him with his laundry."

Wen Yi snorted, speaking with a tone of arrogance, "We did it for Dad’s sake!"

"Then thank you! Of course, Dad also thanks you three sisters on behalf of Pengpeng." Wen Siyuan smiled gently, and his gaze fell on Wen Yue: "You’re the eldest sister. In the future, you’ll be in charge of your younger siblings. If anyone misbehaves, tell Dad, and Dad will stand up for you."

Wen Yue didn’t reply directly. Instead, she asked, "Can I trust you?"

"..." Wen Siyuan didn’t immediately comprehend what Wen Yue meant, but then he heard her say, "Are you sure you won’t find someone else?"

"Don’t worry, Dad will stick to his word."

Wen Siyuan earnestly replied, "With you four siblings, Dad has a family. Living together as a family is just right, no need to add anyone else."

Having been divorced twice, he inevitably became the subject of gossip. Previously, when he first decided to end the marriage and married Su Man, he vowed never to reach the point of divorce again. Looking back now, it’s like he slapped himself in the face.

But compared to being cheated on, slapping himself isn’t much.

However... he regretted not getting a partner through his superiors, like Luo Yanqing next door, that’s undeniable.

In other words, he regrets being blind and soft-hearted back then, listening to his mother’s words, and marrying Su Man through a family-arranged blind date.

Suppressing his envy for Luo Yanqing, Wen Siyuan said, "You guys go check on Pengpeng, have a good talk with him, Dad is a bit worried about your brother."

Wen Yue: "Then we’ll be going."

Wen Siyuan: "Okay."

The study door opened, and the three Wen sisters walked out, with Wen Yue closing the door behind them.

As time ticked by, Wen Siyuan stood by the window, gazing at the tranquil night outside, a myriad of emotions rising within him unwittingly.

Both of them were involved in research, yet he was nowhere near as outstanding as the one next door. Both had remarried with three children, but their post-marriage lives were completely different.

Now, his second marriage ended the same way as the first, concluding in divorce, but next door... life seemed as sweet as honey.

Unlike him, repeatedly cuckolded by the person beside him.

As his thoughts wandered to this point, Wen Siyuan couldn’t help but feel a little despondent, sensing that life dealt him too harsh a hand.

Yet he didn’t know his first marriage was actually happier than Luo Yanqing’s, with a wife devoted to him, leaving him nothing to worry about at home. In contrast, Luo Yanqing was cheated on even before marriage by Feng Lu, and another after marriage, and none of the three children were his.

In comparison, Wen Siyuan practically turned a winning hand into a mess now.

Luo Yanqing, however, played his cards perfectly after getting a chance to reshuffle!

In the stillness of night, with the hazy moonlight cool as flowing water, Kang Li, having washed up, lay in bed, asking Luo Yanqing, "Since you’re back today, will you still take a break this month?"

"I’ll take the regular leave."

Luo Yanqing replied.

Kang Li responded with an "oh."

Luo Yanqing stretched out an arm, pulling his wife into his embrace, softly asking, "What’s the matter? If there’s something, tell me?"

"It’s nothing major. If you’re taking a break, let’s take our parents and the kids out for a visit, like a spring outing." Hearing Kang Li’s suggestion, Luo Yanqing agreed immediately, saying, "You decide where to go."

Kang Li: "You only have two days off, going far isn’t possible. We could either visit some famous spots or head to the outskirts. What do you think?"

Luo Yanqing: "It’s all up to you."

Raising her eyes, Kang Li looked at him playfully, "Do you really listen to me that much?"

Luo Yanqing’s eyes, akin to inked Phoenix Eyes, smiled: "Always have, don’t you know?"

"Let me think."

Kang Li feigned contemplation.

Luo Yanqing chuckled: "Then think it over well."

"If I tell you to go east, you’d never go west. If I tell you to hit the dog, you’d never chase the chicken. Is that how it is?" Kang Li teased, her face serious yet playful.

Unexpectedly, Luo Yanqing found nothing wrong with her words and laughed, saying, "Exactly, that’s it."

Kang Li teased: "Henpecked?"

Luo Yanqing gave a soft "mm."

Kang Li continued teasing: "Scared of your wife?"

Luo Yanqing gave another "mm" and said, "Isn’t it the same?"

At this moment, Kang Li buried her head in his chest and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

She couldn’t hold back her laughter.

Hearing her laughter, Luo Yanqing also let out a low chuckle.

...

The next morning, as dawn broke, Luo Yanqing and Wen Siyuan rode in Director Song’s special car, returning to the research institute with Director Song.

After breakfast, Kang Li took Min Rui, Ming Han, and Ming Wei to school, then drove the three little buns to kindergarten.

The days continued for a long while in the usual peaceful yet warm manner. But on this day, someone who had been quiet for nearly three months suddenly jumped in front of Kang Li, causing trouble.

"That’s her own disregard for life, what’s it got to do with you?! Fool, from now on, don’t be reckless anymore. I don’t want my daughter getting into trouble because of an outsider."

Cai Xiufen glared at Kang Li, asking, "Remembered?"

"Remembered, remembered, from now on I will handle things while ensuring my own safety first."
