The Final Settlement (4)

to break in and interrupt Wu Yong's good deeds.If this were someone else today, they probably wouldn't be as effective as Jiang PoLang in stopping Wu Yong!No, no! If he really dares to do it, he defi...The air is filled with the scent of masculinity.

Before her job was settled, the man's transfer order arrived first. The man carried a large bag on his shoulder, dragged a suitcase in one hand, and held a small bag in the other as he came over.

"My transfer order has come down, the train this evening. Yi Ping, I want to take you and our daughter with me!"

He simply pulled out his train ticket and laid three consecutive soft sleeper tickets in a row on the coffee table in the living room. After shoving his luggage to one side, he didn't say another word, only looked at her with deep, unwavering eyes.

Such a gaze made her heart flutter, making her unable to bear it. She timidly hid in her own room, but even though there was a wall and a door between them, she felt his gaze still on her, following her like a shadow, leaving her feeling entangled and disoriented. Finally, he spoke to her through the door, saying he was going to pick up their daughter from home.

She was so flustered that she even forgot about such an important matter!

She berated herself inwardly. It was just that, suddenly, she didn't want to see this man, didn't want to be with him, and even less did she want to appear as a harmonious couple picking up their daughter together.

Only because her daughter came home did she have to come out of the bedroom. His terrible cooking skills meant the food he made was only edible by himself. Both she and her daughter politely declined to eat it.

The daughter remained calm, appearing completely oblivious to the situation. However, after dinner, her composure shattered. Knowing full well that his daughter would likely cry and make a fuss, the man brought up the fact that he was leaving tomorrow night. The daughter burst into tears once again. Perhaps the pre-purchased soft sleeper ticket had become an unchangeable reality, forcing her to abandon all hope. As a result, she cried with such heart-wrenching sorrow, as if trying to cry the sky down. In the end, her cries became so intense that she choked back sobs. Her face first flushed bright red, then the sound abruptly stopped, leaving her small face pale, turning blue, and finally an alarming shade of steel blue. This frightened her, causing her own tears to flow.

She's actually enduring it, too. She really can't hold on much longer.

He's right, she really can't bear to let go!

It's truly unbearable to let my daughter suffer like that!

After getting married and having children, most of the time, one can no longer be willful. Not thinking about oneself but also considering the daughter. To rather have jade broken than to have porcelain complete, this kind of decisiveness is not something everyone has the courage to do. Especially during this period, the man's performance has repeatedly shaken her determination. If this is the model of the family from now on, she is moved, really moved. The man said that after this, she says in this house, letting her be the mistress, she is moved, really moved. Since marrying into the He family, she has been a person who looks at people's faces and takes orders everywhere. Being able to no longer look at other people's faces and being able to be the true mistress, she really anticipates it. And her daughter, she truly can't bear for her to suffer that hardship. Lin Meng could return to Rong Ling with her son after four years of separation, there is undoubtedly a part for her son. Then, both for her daughter and for herself, she will try again, be brave enough to try again. This time, she put in effort, diligently running her home and this marriage, no matter what the result will be in the future, she shouldn't have any regrets.

"Mommy and Daddy are walking, Mommy and Daddy are walking..."

She cried out in a low voice, clutching her daughter's small hand tightly. With the other hand, she gently stroked her daughter's little face, wiping away her tears.

“Baby, don't cry. Mom is leaving, go with Dad. Mom and Dad will love you very much. You will be a little princess loved by your mom and dad. Baby, our little princess, stop crying, stop crying. Mom and Dad are leaving, go with Dad…”

The daughter finally let out a breath, sobbed heavily for a few moments, then hung her head with tears, weakly seeking reassurance.

"Really Will we really be together Forever and ever"

"Yes, we'll always be together!" The man blurted out the answer. He reached out with a big hand and covered her hand that was holding their daughter. His hands were so large, gripping so tightly, that in this tightness, one felt cared for and valued.

"Will mommy and daddy stay with Bingbing Won't they throw Bingbing away"

"No, no!" the man interjected again.

"Mommy" Bingbing looked at her with tearful eyes, seeking comfort.

She emphasized the point. "Mommy is with Bingbing, and also with Daddy. Our family of three, we're not separated, not separated..."

Over this period of time, the experience has given her daughter a lot of insecurity. She repeatedly confirms if they will really be together and if they will truly never separate. Seeing her daughter like this, she feels so much heartache.

Making this choice was definitely the right one!

Let's give it one more shot, just one more try. Life is never that lucky to be smooth sailing all the way!

Now that the decision has been made, it's time to pack. Although my daughter was tired from crying, she quickly became cheerful again. Like a busy little bee, she buzzed around, packing her own belongings and helping with mine. Leaving He's house this time is the right thing to do, and leaving those people is even more right. My daughter has grown so much; she's no longer that pampered princess. She has learned independence, empathy, and above all, diligence.

The man was also helping on the side, but his usually serious face would occasionally break into a silly smile. Watching him, it was easy to laugh along.

That night, at their daughter's request, the three of them slept in one bed. The daughter slept in between her and the man. Of course, she and the man didn't do anything, couldn't do anything, shouldn't do anything. They just fell asleep quietly like that. After their daughter had long fallen into a deep sleep, and though she still felt a faint unease, she gradually felt sleepy, the man's big hand reached out and gently touched her face. She was startled. The movement was quite large, and the man could easily feel that she hadn't fallen asleep yet.

The man said, “Yi Ping, I feel that my heart is so peaceful, more peaceful than ever before!”

Ahead, they still didn't know what would greet them, but he said he felt an unprecedented sense of peace. She was stunned for a moment, softly responding with "Hmm," and then followed up with another sentence.

"Get some rest, you have things to do tomorrow!"

She probably understood what the man meant, because with you and her daughter, even though there were so many unknowns ahead, he felt it was enough, that he felt fearless.

This touched her, and the knot in her heart loosened a little. Just sleep through this, and it'll be over soon.

The next day, I continued packing my belongings, and then the issue of the house became apparent. What would happen to this place once everyone left

"Keep it, don't sell it. Let this place be your fallback!"

What he didn't say, she understood.

This man is really thoughtful!

Then, don't sell it. Keep it for now, and don't rent it out either. That's all for now. All she needs to do is settle the gas, water and electricity bills, then notify them to stop supplying.

A day rushed by, and they finally set off on their journey. Their heavy luggage had already been checked in. So, she and her daughter were basically empty-handed, with only the man carrying a bag on his back and another in his hand.

Leaving one's hometown and venturing to a new place usually evokes feelings of sadness and reluctance. Yet, her heart was devoid of such sentiments. Listening to her daughter's giggles, the occasional soft murmur, and the man patiently responding to her daughter's low voice, her heart felt light and buoyant.

Setting off on this journey is a new beginning.

Then farewell, this land!

Goodbye to that past, some of it sour and obscure!

Goodbye, to the once cowardly and self-deceived self!

Goodbye...

Goodbye....

As the train began to move, she gazed at the red "City B" displayed on the electronic screen above her head, a slight upturn playing at the corner of her lips.

Li Yi Ping and He Zhanshu, with their daughter, left the city. The news reached Lin Meng's ears through Miao Qing very quickly. It was her temporary emotional outburst at the time that had softened her heart and provided such an opportunity. So, she was a little curious about the final outcome and asked Miao Qing to keep an eye on things.

Such a result should be considered good.

She listened, only gave a faint smile, then put the matter aside. Those people could become the past, she needn't dwell on them any further.

And when Miao Qing relayed the news about Rong's mother, she was very happy after hearing it.

After recovering slightly, Rong Hengduo came to study the next day. However, Rong's mother suddenly suggested returning to J City. This sudden change was too much for her to accept at once.

“Why” she naturally wanted to ask. She had no mother growing up, so these days spent with Rong Mama were like having a mother figure. Although some things weren't as free and easy as being a real daughter, she felt it was quite good living with her mother-in-law like this. She loved her man, and since loving him meant loving his family, she would love them too. Besides, her mother-in-law was getting older and not in the best of health. She didn't feel comfortable letting her go back to city J alone. And she could see how much her mother-in-law loved Youyou and Haohuo. Elderly people are always fond of children; would her mother-in-law really be willing to separate from these two little ones

But Mother Rong was determined to leave. Staying in this city meant being too close to Rong Fei Wu, a distance that felt unsafe. What happened with Rong Heng Duo had left her with immense guilt and a deep sense of self-reflection. She should have stayed in J City as before, keeping her distance from Rong Fei Wu and Du Cai Yi. It wasn't that she feared Du Cai Yi; the current Du Cai Yi was no match for her. Rather, she needed serenity, a calm and detached state of mind.

Only when she left could she be free from confusion and avoid another incident like that with Rong Hengduo. And if she left, Du Caixin wouldn't become suspicious or spread gossip. She wasn't thinking about herself, but about her descendants. She had long been accustomed to life in J city. There were her old neighbors, old friends, and many familiar things there. There was also her business she had built over decades, which couldn't simply be continued elsewhere because it held so much of her emotional investment. Her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren were all here, bringing both longing and reluctance to leave. But she would get used to this separation. Just like before, when she had to put her son's needs first for their livelihood and couldn't keep him by her side, leaving him alone in the house or entrusting him to others sometimes. It was just like when her son left her to join the army, traveling the world and making a name for himself as the head of the family. He became a busy businessman, constantly running between places and rarely returning to J city.

She has grown accustomed to a life of solitude.

So, it's nothing much, just head back to J city then.
