Chapter 716: 191: Retribution_6
“I should go back home. My mother-in-law must be hungry by now.” Lin Fang said, trying to gain Mrs. Zhao’s favor in the late hour.
“Go on.” Mrs. Zhao nodded approvingly, and as she watched Lin Fang leave, she spoke to Shenbao, “She’s a good woman. You won’t make a mistake with her.”
“Hmm,” Shenbao replied, nodding his head.
After resting at home for another day, Shenbao took his daughter, Ziqing, to the hospital to see Shangguan Furong on the third morning.
The ones accompanying Furong in the hospital that day were Mrs. Shangguan, Dehui and Ni Cuihua.
No other younger family members were present.
Upon seeing Shenbao, Dehui managed to suppress his urge to lash out, and his face darkened immeasurably.
“Mom, brother,” Shenbao spoke up first.
The room fell silent; no one responded.
“You’re here, have a seat.” Furong said, sitting up from the bed.
When she addressed Shenbao, she remained incredibly composed.
“It’s okay, I can stand,” Shenbao said.
He wasn’t a fool to take a seat under such circumstances.
“Here’s the divorce agreement, please read it,” Furong handed the document to him.
Shenbao was stunned at Furong’s calm demeanor; he slowly took the agreement and began reading.
“Since Ziqing is here too, feel free to discuss with who they’d like to stay.” Furong said nonchalantly.
“I want to stay with dad!” Ziqing stuck with her decision, just like four days prior – she didn’t hesitate to choose Shenbao
“I choose my mom,” Zijun stated.
Remembering his mother’s request, Shenbao found himself at a loss for words momentarily before pleading, “Furong, Zijun is the only boy from the Zhao family, can you…”
“That depends on Zijun,” responded Furong. “As long as they’re willing, I don’t mind if both of them stay with you.”
“Zijun, don’t you want to stay with your father and grandmother?” Shenbao squat down to engage Zijun.
Zijun replied, “You have Ziqing to keep you and grandmother company. Dad, don’t worry. Even if I stay with mom, I will always be your son and I will always come home to visit you and Ziqing.”
If neither of them wants to stay with their mother, she’s pitiful.
Crying out loud, Shenbao confessed, “I have no choice, no choice…” freeweɓnøvel.com
