"Doting on someone can easily destroy a person, you know?" Li Yonggui continued after seeing Fang Zhiqiang's acquiescence.
"Dad, I know that I am the reason why Xiaoxiao and I are able to reach this point, but I really have not thought about this issue from your perspective. Now it seems that, in fact, it has always been I am self-righteous, but in fact everything I did was wrong from the beginning."
Fang Zhiqiang looked at Li Yonggui intently and said everything he was thinking.
"Zhiqiang, when I discuss this with you, I am not discussing whose cause it is. I just want to tell you that many times, as long as we can change our thinking, the outcome of things will be It may change. Regarding Xiaoxiao, I also want to tell you that Xiaoxiao now is indeed not a woman worthy of being liked. Even if I am her father, I dare to say this to you, So, don’t put too much psychological burden on her. All this is her own choice. Only when she truly tastes the final bitter pill, may she be able to fully realize it. No matter how much we say now, it is useless.”
Li Yonggui’s sincere words made Fang Zhiqiang’s eyes wet. After all, he was Li Xiaoxiao’s biological father, but to say such heartfelt words to his non-biological son-in-law, how much effort does it take? courage?
"There is one more thing I want to ask you." Li Yonggui looked at Fang Zhiqiang's reddish eyes and continued without hesitation.
“Say, Dad!” In Fang Zhiqiang’s heart, Li Yonggui deserves to be called ‘Dad! '
"I hope that you can marry that Wang Yaxin as soon as possible. Of course, not only to make you happy, I also have my own selfish motives. I only want Xiaoxiao to see how your life will change after you leave her. As things get better and better, she can truly let go of the grudge in her heart. Perhaps, at that time, she will truly consider her future life and pursue a stable life of her own again."
Li Yonggui’s words caught Fang Zhiqiang even more off guard. When Li Yonggui was in the hospital, he had said such words to himself, but now when he heard it again, Fang Zhiqiang felt that it was all like that. It's unreal. How complicated the feelings between people are, it seems that it is fully demonstrated between myself, Li Xiaoxiao and Wang Yaxin.
…
In the bedroom, Wang Xia looked at Li Xiaoxiao’s expressionless face and said, "What? You regret it so quickly?"
One sentence touched the deepest weakness in Li Xiaoxiao's heart. She slowly raised her head and looked at her sister, but she didn't say anything, but her eyes were slightly red.
But she didn't shed tears, not only for her own dignity, but also to prove to herself how determined she could be.
"Don't think so useless. In fact, life is quite simple. Sometimes if you think less, you will be more happy. If you care less, you will be more open-minded. This One thing, you should really learn from your sister and me!" Wang Xia patted her chest and said to Li Xiaoxiao with a proud look on her face.
"Sister, do you think I can persist to the end?" This is Li Xiaoxiao's question to Wang Xia, but at the same time, it is also her question to herself, making such a choice by herself, How far can we go? For me now, this is an unknown.
When Wang Xia heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned. How could Wang Xia see clearly a problem that even Li Xiaoxiao didn't know about?
"Xiaoxiao, I just told you to think less, why can't you remember it? What's the use of thinking so much? Now that you've made a decision, now that you've come this far If you take one step, then keep going. If you don't go to the end, how will you know whether you can persist to the end?" Wang Xia looked at Li Xiaoxiao's tangled expression and said immediately.
"I just feel that if I fail to persist, everyone will laugh at me and look down on me..." Li Xiaoxiao lowered his head and said to himself.
"I thought that you no longer care about other people's opinions, but I didn't expect that your thoughts are still so childish..." Wang Xia sighed helplessly.
"Am I naive?" Li Xiaoxiao raised his head and stared at Wang Xia, asking with a blank look on his face.
Wang Xia glanced at her and continued: "Okay, let me answer your question just now. Suppose you fail to persist to the end, what do you think the outcome will be?"
Wang Xia’s question made Li Xiaoxiao not sure how to answer, and was stunned for a moment, while Wang Xia continued: "Now seeing that Qiangzi and Sister Yaxin are getting closer and closer, what are they doing? Marriage is always something that is hard to talk about. You have to understand that Qiangzi is single now and can get married whenever he wants. You can't control this. As you just said, even if you can't insist on it, Finally, when they are married, what can you do? Are you going to call him and trick him into coming back like you did before? Do you think that childish behavior back then can happen again?"
Wang Xia's words made Li Xiaoxiao's eyes become redder and redder. She seemed to suddenly realize that the thing she cared about most in her life seemed to be getting farther and farther away from her. Gradually, when she wanted to reach out again, But I found that it had gone far away. No matter how hard I tried, no matter how loud I shouted, it would never come back.It's...
Li Xiaoxiao suddenly became afraid. She was afraid that that scene would really happen. She was afraid that when that day came, no matter what she said, it would be too late, and nothing she did would help.
"Sister, what should I do?" Li Xiaoxiao is still Li Xiaoxiao after all, and disguise is still disguise. Only when you take off your disguise in front of the people you know best can you recognize yourself.
As the saying goes, nature is hard to change. Li Xiaoxiao’s simple temper is her most obvious symbol at any time. No matter how many things she has experienced, no matter how mature she is, in the end, she It is still her, the truest self deep down in her heart, which will never change and cannot change. Once she changes, she will no longer be her.
"Xiaoxiao, listen to what my sister said. It's really time for you to grow up. Do you know what growing up means?" Wang Xia frowned slightly and said seriously.
"It means...mature and steady..." Li Xiaoxiao replied.
"Look back, when you were a child, when you got into trouble at school, who stopped all the trouble for you? Later, when you grew up, when you acted willfully at home, who was it? Patiently tolerate your little temper and nonsense?"
After Wang Xia finished speaking, she looked at Li Xiaoxiao for a moment, then continued: "Yes, all this is due to parents, but now, parents You are already old. If you continue to act willfully, they will no longer be able to help you deal with the troubles you have caused. Have you ever thought that it is time for you to take responsibility for all the decisions you make? "
Wang Xia’s words came from the bottom of her heart, because she did not grow up in an environment like Li Xiaoxiao. No matter how willful Li Xiaoxiao was, she still had parents who accommodated her and pampered her. Even if Li Yonggui has his own way of education, after all, he is Li Xiaoxiao's biological father. How could he not have a little preference?
But what about Wang Xia? She knew that very early on she was a girl who could no longer act willfully and had to take responsibility for her own decisions and judgments very early on.
After listening to Wang Xia's words, Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but nodded, and then she said seriously: "Sister, I understand what you mean. You are telling me that no matter what path I choose in the end, No matter how difficult it is, you should go on determinedly, right?"
Wang Xia nodded, and then said: "Logically speaking, as a sister, I cannot watch you take detours. I can't even watch you suffer. However, in order for you to have a better future, I can only let you bear the consequences in this matter. Only then will you understand that there will be consequences in your life. There are many choices and decisions, but they are not always right. When you regret it and want to do it all over again, you find that no one will give it to you again.This is an opportunity, because there are not many people who love you in this world, except for our parents. Being able to meet someone who is willing to love us unconditionally and without any bottom line is our lifelong happiness, but it is a pity that you missed it. . ”
Li Xiaoxiao’s tears finally flowed out, not because of grievance, but because of self-blame.
She hated why she was already thirty years old, but her thoughts were still like this. Immature? She hates herself, why she always likes to act on impulse and makes so many wrong decisions?
She hates herself, why can’t she recognize good people’s hearts and treat those who treat her sincerely? Hurt them again?
Whether it was his parents or Fang Zhiqiang, Li Xiaoxiao asked himself, he had done things to hurt them. His parents were already so old, but they still wanted to hurt them. Worrying about his own affairs, Fang Zhiqiang once treated himself so sincerely, but in the end he gave him such a result. Now thinking about all this, Li Xiaoxiao wants to slap herself.
"Xiaoxiao, you don't have to blame yourself so much. In fact, your decision may not be wrong. Moreover, I personally think that if Qiangzi can choose to be with Yaxin this time, it will be a good thing. At least, it can be reconciled. You and I both know the regret he feels in his heart. He and Yaxin have always had an inexplicable relationship. "Wang Xia calmed down and said in a much softer tone.
After listening, Li Xiaoxiao looked at her sister again. From Wang Xia's eyes, Li Xiaoxiao seemed to see Her eyes were red, and she seemed to see the tears on her cheeks.
But she knew that the matter was at this point, and no matter how much she struggled or regretted, it was useless. Her sister was right, If Fang Zhiqiang can choose to continue living with Wang Yaxin, it is indeed a good thing. At least, he can escape from this immature little girl who always makes him sad and angry, and be with another mature and intellectual woman. , living with such a woman should be a particularly happy thing, right?
