Chapter 10 — The Day I No Longer Need You

And we also plan to hold a wedding in Beijing, because both families are here anyway. Meeting Tong Ky Tham again was at an elder's birthday celebration party. That elder had a normal relationship with my family, but was very close to Giang Kien Tham's parents. So Giang Kien Tham took me to attend with him. Just as soon as he walked in, Giang Kien Tham was called away by his elders. He often lived outside the province, so he was naturally considered an honored guest. I went to the food counter to get some pastries. As soon as I turned around, I saw Tong Ky Tham and Tong Tieu Bao. The father and son wore identical outfits, had identical faces, and looked quite attractive. When he saw me, Tong Tieu Bao's eyes immediately lit up. She even instinctively called out "mom" and was about to walk towards me. But after taking two steps, it seemed to remember something and awkwardly stopped. Tong Ky Tham still kept his face expressionless, but the corners of his lips were tightly pursed. I nodded to them, suppressed the bitterness in my heart, and was about to turn and leave. Tong Ky Tham suddenly walked over.

“Thuong Vu Dong.”

He looked at me, looked at me for a while, then spoke again: "Since you're back in Beijing, go back to the Song family to live, Tieu Bao misses you very much." I was somewhat surprised: "Going to the Song family?" Tong Ky Tham coughed slightly, turned away, his voice a bit unnatural: "After all, you are Tieu Bao's biological mother."

“She's not even seven years old yet, she still needs her mother to take care of her.”

“Tong Ky Tham, we are divorced.” I frowned, preparing to turn and walk away.

"Thuong Vu Dong, Hua Kha Han has returned to France."

Tong Ky Tham pulled me back and suddenly said something like that.

“What does it have to do with me?” I pushed his hand away and took a step back.

“Why is it not relevant?”

He frowned: "Before, you were angry and wanted a divorce, wasn't it because of Hua Kha Han?"

"She's gone now, you should calm down."

"Now that you're back, it's not like I'm not considering remarrying."

"Anyway, you are Tieu Bao's biological mother, always better than outsiders..."

“Tong Ky Tham, how much more clearly do you need me to explain?”

“When I divorced you, I never thought I would come back to you.”

"Love Vu Dong, I'm giving you the stairs to get down..."

“I don't need it.”

I really couldn't stand it anymore, raised my hand for him to see: "Tong Ky Tham, I'm married." The wedding ring on the ring finger sparkles brightly but is not ostentatious. Tong Ky Tham's black eyes froze, his face suddenly darkened. But just blinked, he looked at me and smiled faintly: "Vu Dong, you really don't have to do that."

"I already told you that you want to remarry, so it's not like I didn't consider it."

"You said you were married, so where is your husband?"

“I don't think that a woman who has married someone else and given birth to a child like you can find a better man than me.”

“Besides, I love you.”

He said very firmly, certain that if I once loved him, I would love him forever. I'm sure in my heart I want to remarry him, but I'm just afraid to say anything. Surely if he just waved his hand, I wouldn't have the strength to return. But he doesn't know, in fact I don't know either. Maybe the It's called my feelings for him, which have begun to crumble since the night he borrowed alcohol to force himself on me. Later, the reason why she agreed to marry him was more likely because of Tong Tieu Bao. Just like I finally decided to divorce him, it was also because of Tong Tieu Bao. Before, the child was the root that kidnapped my happiness and freedom, but now there is no longer anything that can tie me down.
