Flash Marriage, Deep Love-Chapter 86 Sweet Moments of the Couple (2)

"I..."

Song Guotao was about to say that he was the one who earned the money to buy the house, but when his gaze swept over Xuanxuan’s confused little face, he swallowed his words. In front of his daughter, he couldn’t have any conflicts with Mi Wan, so that his daughter would completely trust him.

Although the relationship between him and his daughter was quite good, there was still a slight gap compared to Mi Wan. After all, over the years, Mi Wan had played the most important role in Xuanxuan’s growth. Therefore, in terms of daily life and emotional dependence, Xuanxuan relied more on Mi Wan and was more willing to listen to her.

If he and Mi Wan were placed on the same scale and Xuanxuan had to choose, she would definitely lean towards Mi Wan.

In fact, gifted and intelligent children are usually more sensitive. Realizing the cold interactions between her parents, Xuanxuan thought they were arguing. Although she had never seen her parents argue before, it was very normal for adults to quarrel, just like her friend Xi in kindergarten said, her mom and dad sometimes quarreled too, but they would make up quickly afterwards. So Xuanxuan wasn’t too worried about Song Guotao and Mi Wan fighting, but she was more curious about why her mom sold the house.

Xuanxuan looked at Song Guotao with confusion, seeing his hesitant and troubled expression, she softly asked, "Daddy, are we really short on money?"

"No, we’re not," Song Guotao quickly denied.

"Then why did Mom sell our house to someone else?" Xuanxuan turned her head to look at Mi Wan, her face full of thick confusion.

"Because Mom needs money. Xuanxuan, you’re still young. You can’t fully understand adult matters. Now, Mom and Dad can no longer live together, you should know that, right? Your dad has a new home, and Mom will always live with your grandparents from now on. But Mom is still Mom, and Dad is still Dad, we just won’t live together anymore," Mi Wan gently explained while stroking Xuanxuan’s hair.

"Why does it have to be like this? If Mom needs money, why doesn’t she just ask Dad?"

Such a simple question, why does Mom make it so complicated? Xuanxuan thought.

"But Mom doesn’t want your dad’s money. Your dad did something very seriously wrong, and Mom will never forgive him for it in her lifetime."

Yes, Mom doesn’t like disobedient children and especially doesn’t like it when she does dangerous things, but every time Mom will forgive her and won’t keep bringing up her mistakes. She will still praise her as a good child and still like her very much.

If Mom isn’t someone who likes to hold onto others’ mistakes, then why can’t she forgive Dad? Is it because Dad didn’t apologize to Mom like she does? Or did Dad hurt Mom deeply?

Thinking about it, Xuanxuan turned her face to Song Guotao, puffed up her cheeks, and asked very seriously, "Daddy, did you bully Mom?"

"Cough..."

Song Guotao, who was drinking soup, choked a bit. A sly glint flashed in his eyes, then he looked at Xuanxuan with a bit of guilt and said, "Xuanxuan, Daddy knows he was wrong. He won’t make the same mistake again. Can you ask Mommy to forgive Daddy?"

Shameless!

Mi Wan glanced at Song Guotao’s hypocritical face, cursing him in her heart.

But in front of Xuanxuan, Mi Wan hid her irritated feelings very well. Smiling, she said, "Not everyone can be forgiven for their mistakes, Xuanxuan. When you make a mistake, Mom can forgive you unconditionally because you are still young and don’t understand things yet. No matter what mistake you make, it won’t carry malicious harm. But your dad is different. He’s an adult. He knew it was wrong but still did it."

Saying this, Mi Wan picked Xuanxuan up and sat her on her lap, then slightly turned her body, back facing Song Guotao, and asked, "Xuanxuan, are you curious about what your dad did that can’t be forgiven?"

"Yes," Xuanxuan nodded twice.

"Your dad he..."

"Wanwan!"

Hearing this, Song Guotao became a bit restless, thinking Mi Wan was about to explain everything to Xuanxuan, so he hurriedly interrupted her.

"Song Guotao, are you feeling guilty? Or afraid?" Mi Wan glanced at Song Guotao, a faint mockery in her words.

Exposed, Song Guotao’s face showed a moment of coldness, then he calmly and seriously said, "Stop talking nonsense. Even if you’re angry, this is between us. There’s no need to affect Xuanxuan."

Influence Xuanxuan?

Right now, Mi Wan felt the word "shameless" wasn’t enough to describe Song Guotao. She was too angry to be angry anymore and laughed in exasperation, saying, "Then you listen carefully to how I’m influencing Xuanxuan."

How she says it, what she says, isn’t up to him to remind her now.

Retracting her gaze, Mi Wan smiled again and asked Xuanxuan, "Do you know what Daddy just said to Mommy?"

Xuanxuan shook her head in confusion. She heard everything they said, but she didn’t fully understand what it meant.

"Actually, Dad doesn’t agree with Mom telling Xuanxuan too much, but Mom thinks we’re all girls and someday Xuanxuan will understand Mom’s feelings now," Mi Wan said, "We girls like to be with those we love. If there’s no love, we won’t like it anymore. It’s just like how Xuanxuan doesn’t like Xiao Mei. Even if she apologizes, Xuanxuan is willing to forgive her, but you two will never be good friends. So, Mom won’t be with your dad anymore. Can Xuanxuan understand?"

Such a comparison might be inappropriate, but to help Xuanxuan understand her point more clearly, Mi Wan had no other choice.

"Oh."

Seemingly understanding, Xuanxuan nodded, then furrowed her little brows and remained silent for a while, slowly raising her head and saying very earnestly, "But Xuanxuan wants Mom and Dad to be together, not to separate."

Sigh!

Mi Wan sighed in her heart again. She fully understood Xuanxuan’s feelings. In her pure little world, she always hoped things could be perfect. She couldn’t understand the complexities of the adult world.

"I’m sorry, Xuanxuan, Mom can’t fulfill your wish this time. Mom and Dad must separate," Mi Wan said helplessly with great determination.

Some things must be faced and cannot be delayed indefinitely. At this point, she was determined not to remarry Song Guotao, so she couldn’t keep deceiving Xuanxuan, making her think there was still a chance for them to reconcile.

Upon hearing this, Xuanxuan tightly pressed her lips together, lowered her head in disappointment, and her eyes gradually turned red.

She could understand that Dad bullied Mom, so Mom was angry and didn’t want Dad anymore. At this moment, she really wanted to cry and throw a tantrum, thinking that maybe then Mom would listen to her and reconcile with Dad. But this time seemed different from any other time. Before, she could cry and beg Mom to buy her something she wanted, but this time, she was afraid that if she cried and fussed, even Mom wouldn’t want her anymore.
