Chapter 761: Chapter 769 Why So Selfish

She thought that, no matter what happened, no matter what she went through, Bai Da would definitely accept her.

But now, he wasn’t even opening the door.

“Bai Da, Bai Da, open the door.”

Ye Xiu, inside, at first felt indifferent, convinced she had indeed done wrong.

But later, she slowly began to feel oppressed, irritable.

She, as a teacher, could never teach again.

She had let down her students, her daughter.

Her predicament today, was all because she had been deceived by Nan Jin.

Finally free, she hadn’t even looked at Nan Jin, just like he hadn’t stopped trying to save himself these past months, never giving a thought to Ye Xiu.

In the end, Bai Zhi wasn’t too harsh on this mother; she merely endured six months of prison.

And now she could finally come out for the New Year.

Bai Da knew all about this, but he too had never once visited Ye Xiu.

Some people, if they don’t like someone, they just don’t like them. No matter what they do.

Some selfishness is not apparent on the surface,

Just like him, like Ye Xiu.

When he had done wrong, Xingxing had suffered because of it.

He regretted it but it was too late to amend, no matter what he did, Xingxing could never forgive him.

He knew that, he really did.

He never expected that, after he had hurt Xingxing, Ye Xiu would also do the same, all for that bastard Nan Jin, how could he tolerate it.

Ye Xiu had liked Nan Jin from the start, and surprisingly still liked him now.

Nan Jin’s daughter had hurt Xingxing time and again, and Nan Jin himself had even wanted his daughter dead…

Even though Bai Da might be especially selfish, now he just couldn’t face Ye Xiu anymore.

He loved Ye Xiu, Ye Xiu was his whole world.

But the one he had wronged even more was Xingxing. So now he was living for atonement. How could he accept Ye Xiu, who had hurt Xingxing.

“Please leave, I don’t want to see you, we no longer have any relationship.”

Hearing this, Ye Xiu couldn’t believe these words had come from Bai Da.

How could Bai Da say such things.

“What did you say? You’re actually telling me to leave?”

Ye Xiu’s eyes widened “Didn’t you say you would take care of me for a lifetime?”

Back then, he would rather die than get divorced.

“It’s only been a while, and you’ve changed your heart?”

That couldn’t be possible, Ye Xiu had once believed Bai Da would never change in this lifetime.

“I haven’t.”

Bai Da opened the door, looking earnestly at Ye Xiu.

“I’ve let down a lot of people, my father, the children, but I never let you down.

Even if I was at fault, towards you, I was devoted. You must accept that much.”

Now, Bai Da had grown a beard, tidied up neatly, taking care of everything in the house; although it was difficult at first, with time, he had gotten used to it.

Yet with each passing day, he realized just how much Xingxing had done before and the calluses on his hands reminded him of the vile things he did, how cruel he had been to his daughter.

“You lied to me and still feel you treated me well? Your kindness to me is not what I wanted.”

Ye Xiu looked at the Bai Da in front of her and felt it somewhat laughable, how could he believe that he had done nothing wrong, where did he get the face?

“But I’ve tried my best, even if you don’t think it’s good, there’s nothing more I can do.”

Bai Da looked at Ye Xiu dispassionately, his eyes long devoid of any fervor.

Bai Da knew in his heart that he still liked the person before him. Both were at fault in their marriage.

He had simply wanted her to forget everything back then.

He wanted to give her everything without asking if she really wanted it.

“So, what are you saying now? I have nowhere to go, why won’t you let me in? I’m already divorced from Nan Jin, you…”

Ye Xiu really did divorce Nan Jin, proposing the divorce after finding out he had deceived her.

“I suddenly realize why I fell in love with you. It turns out you’re selfish too.”

Ye Xiu just laughed, finding it ironic upon hearing this.

Bai Da had the nerve to call her selfish.

“You’re calling me selfish? What right do you have to say that? Just say you don’t want to take me in, and I’ll leave. What’s the point of saying all this?”

Ye Xiu’s patience was gradually wearing thin. What right did Bai Da have to judge her?

“Right, I have no right, so go ahead.”

Bai Da spoke coldly. Since that was the case, there was nothing left to say.

Although Bai Da said what Ye Xiu wanted to hear, she was not willing to leave.

“Why!” She needed to understand why, why Bai Da suddenly seemed like a completely different person.

Bai Da watched Ye Xiu’s self-righteous demeanor and could only find it somewhat amusing, wondering what she was thinking.

“Because we’re divorced, and you’ve remarried. We can’t go back to the way things were. This is the Bai Family’s home, so it’s naturally inconvenient for you to come in.”

Bai Da didn’t know what Ye Xiu was thinking, but he definitely couldn’t accept her.

Even though he still loved her in his heart, he still couldn’t accept her.

“Besides, you… When you chose to hurt our child back then, you should have known all was irretrievable.

I was unkind to Xingxing in the past because I thought she was not my biological daughter.

When I learned the truth, my remorse was unbearable. Though I wanted to make amends, I found out Xingxing no longer needed them. I deserved to be punished.

But what about you, Ye Xiu?

You, who began by condemning me, swore you’d take care of her, why did you drug her with your own hands? Do you understand what that meant to her?

I’ve said she’s my Xingxing, and I would protect her with my life. Even if I was mistaken before, now that I know the truth, how can I accept you who harmed her?”

If the person before him wasn’t Ye Xiu, he wouldn’t even bother explaining.

In fact, no explanation was needed. Now he understood one thing: explanations are useless. Because once wrong, always wrong, damage is damage.

No matter how much he regretted it, he couldn’t turn back time.

Bai Ye returned at this moment, nowadays coming home only once a month from boarding school.

The current Bai Ye was no longer the Bai Ye of the past. He was now composed and helped with chores whenever he returned, no longer the troublemaker he used to be.

Seeing Ye Xiu, he was briefly taken aback. “Mom, you’re back.”

“Yes, I’m back, but your dad won’t let me through the door.”

Ye Xiu nodded and then glared at Bai Da.

“Oh, then shall I take you to stay in town? Your house is still there; I just haven’t been staying there.”

In truth, Ye Xiu wasn’t left with nothing. She still had everything. It was just that now she could only receive a share from the school, as the rights were already in someone else’s hands.

“You…”

Ye Xiu was indeed surprised. “Wasn’t it said that the house would be given to the school for dormitories?”

At that time, a partner had talked to her about it.

“I didn’t agree, that was purchased by you and has nothing to do with the school. Let’s go, I’ll take you…”

Bai Ye did not elaborate on how he managed to keep the house, as if it was not worth mentioning.
