Chapter 1706: Equal Creation for Everyone 37

Wendy would occasionally contact Su Yan to chat, and would also help her send some charity links.

The two of them are just good friends. This time, because fans were looking for a marriage partner for him on behalf of Wendi, he didn't care about other female artists and let them pair up randomly. However, he made a special phone call to apologize to Su Yan.

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble, just ignore them."

Su Yan said nonchalantly: "I don't take it to heart. You don't have to call to apologize. I understand."

"Oh, I see. Where have you been lately? When will you come back for a get-together?" Wendy said cautiously.

Su Yan said jokingly: "I may not be able to come back recently, but if you invite me to your wedding, I can take the time to come back."

Wendy smiled bitterly: "I have not even started dating, who am I going to marry?"

"Then you should work harder and get out more often to meet new people and things. Don't just stay at home like an old man all the time."

Wendy knew her intention, it was just a subtle reminder to him that it was impossible for them.

The two chatted about some other things and then hung up the phone.

Li Jinwang secretly followed Su Yan and knew that she had traveled all over the world over the years and helped many people.

His father has been released from prison, but he is still like a puddle of mud, playing cards and drinking all day long.

Looking at his father now, he felt like he was two generations older than her. She was still so young and beautiful, but he had aged so much that he was not worthy of being compared with her.

The two had had little contact since he graduated from college.

She had said before that she would no longer care about him after he became an adult, but she still felt sorry for him and paid for his college tuition.

Although she had never been in person, she knew very well which university he was admitted to and how much tuition he should pay.

I arrived at the school on time, but he was not notified at all. It was not until he went to register that he realized that his tuition had already been paid.

If she kept talking about these things, asking him to repay her and remember her kindness, perhaps he would not be so grateful to her.

But she never showed up, made any requests of him, and never contacted him on her own initiative.

Because of her silent devotion, he felt more and more guilty after he grew up, regretting that he was so unfilial when he was a child and hurt her heart.

Unfortunately, he realized it too late and there was no going back.

He wanted to know about her and had to snoop on the Internet to find out her recent situation.

Now it has become his habit to read her Weibo every day. The more he understands, the more he understands why she left so decisively.

If she didn't leave, she would only be oppressed by her father and would be just a sparrow with broken wings.

But when she left, it was like a phoenix being set free, finally able to spread its wings and fly high, shining brightly.

Li Jinwang admired and was grateful to her from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for her, he might have become a waste like his father.

Now he understood that what she had said to his father was absolutely correct.

Leaving him is her new life.

Before he was fifteen, he resented her; after he was fifteen, he was grateful to her, admired her and missed her.

Too bad she would never be close to him again.

Li Jinwang was staring at his cell phone in a daze. Li Zhongquan came back from playing cards and saw him in a daze on the sofa. He couldn't help but walk over to take a look.

When he saw Su Yan, who seemed to be younger than she actually was, on his phone, he felt both envious and resentful.

"Why are you looking at her? Even if you look at her every day, she won't recognize you." Li Zhongquan said sarcastically.

Li Jinwang was indifferent to his disdainful attitude. He just put the phone back into his trouser pocket and changed the subject: "Have you eaten?"

Li Zhongquan's hands and feet are not flexible and he cannot do heavy work. He is too embarrassed to be asked to pick up cardboard.

People like him have been to jail, but they still want to save face and suffer every day.

After being released from prison, he has been relying on Li Jinwang and his mother for support. He is a complete waste.

"I ate a bowl of fried rice on the roadside."

Li Jinwang thought about the barbecue Su Yan had tonight and the dishes a group of half-grown kids skewered themselves. He was so envious of those people. Why wasn't he one of them?

As soon as Li Zhongquan saw that he was in a trance, he knew that he must be thinking about Su Yan again.

I couldn't help but curse, "She just gave you some money, so why should you be grateful to her? I have raised you for so many years, am I not better than her?"

Li Jinwang said calmly, "Dad, what she taught me was independence and self-reliance. What did you teach me? She is living a better life without you, and she seems to have been reborn. Have you ever thought about why? Because you are a person who doesn't know how to improve yourself, and you only complain about everything. Her life is positive and optimistic, while your life is decadent and boring. Why do I like to peek at her? Because only in this way can I work harder and live a better life, instead of watching you sink into the quagmire and unable to extricate yourself."

Li Zhongquan looked at Li Jinwang in anger and shame. He raised his hand and wanted to slap him, but facing his son's unwavering and determined gaze, he felt a little guilty.

Doesn't he regret it?

He had regretted it a long time ago. Every late night when everyone was asleep, he took out his cell phone more than once to peek into Su Yan's life.

He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. Seeing her so glamorous and beautiful, he felt inferior and miserable.

Why, why didn't he treat her better in the beginning? Why did it turn out like this?

If he had discovered her good qualities earlier, he wouldn't have lost her and even broken up his family.

In the end, he ended up in complete failure and had nothing.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world. No matter how much he wants to make amends or go back to the past, it is impossible.

I can only feel lost every time I wake up from my dreams at midnight.
