Chapter 859 - 861: Already Used to It
"We stopped communicating, we were never close to begin with, just tied by that bloodline rope. Before I was an adult, they still sent money to me every year. After I became an adult, they didn’t give me a single penny."
"Actually, not communicating is also good. They’re not lacking me as a son. If we keep in touch, there will be a lot of troublesome things coming up, and I’d have to find time to visit them, which is very inconvenient. Besides, I know they’re doing pretty well now—my dad’s in business and he’s making quite a lot of money."
"As for my mom’s side, even though they’re just average folks, the whole family is pretty happy, so there’s no need for me to join in. I have that sense of self-awareness."
"I’m sorry for bringing up something so sad. I didn’t mean to ask." Tang Rong felt a bit regretful for asking him such questions earlier, proving that curiosity killed the cat!
"There’s nothing for you to feel guilty about. I know you’re just concerned about me. Besides, these things happened years ago, and I’ve long gotten used to it."
"That’s why I’ve never really thought about getting married. It’s not because I don’t want to marry you; it’s just that I’m a bit scared of it. What if I end up like my dad? If I have kids, would I treat them the same way my dad treated me, ignoring them?"
"That’s what I’m afraid of. Marriage itself is not a big deal; it’s the responsibility after marriage that matters. Can I take it on like a man should? I studied medicine and had researched genetic inheritance thoroughly. If I fully inherit my parents’ genes, wouldn’t I end up like them?"
Tang Rong hugged Xiao Yifei, suddenly realizing she hadn’t truly understood him at all. What she saw in Xiao Yifei was the good things he chose to show her—his gentleness, his excellent medical skill, his graceful demeanor.
