In Cheng Su’s opinion, it’s the most foolish thing to be serious with oneself, and that’s exactly how Hualing is, being serious with Chen Shouwang, and even more with herself.
She makes Chen Shouwang uncomfortable like this, but isn’t she making herself unhappy too? While punishing Chen Shouwang, isn’t she also punishing herself?
Upon hearing Cheng Su’s words, Hualing’s face darkened, and she said, "Unless the needle pierces the flesh, you don’t feel the pain. How could you understand my feelings if you haven’t gone through such pain?"
Cheng Su retorted, "I haven’t experienced it? True, I haven’t experienced infidelity. But in the first half of the year, what I went through, don’t you know? Wasn’t I in pain then? Compared to infidelity, I also lost a child. Who feels more pain?"
Hualing was at a loss for words.
"At that time, the more I wanted to divorce Qi Taiguo, the more painful it was. How did I get through it later? By experiencing life and death. In the face of life and death, other pains or grievances seem insignificant. At that moment, it was enough that he was there; nothing else mattered that much. So I chose to let go, because I couldn’t give up on him." Cheng Su’s eyes slightly welled up as she recalled that time.
Hualing looked at her, lightly biting her lip: "How can it be so easy to forgive? How can it be?"
"It’s not that you have to forgive now; I just want to tell you that since it has happened, dwelling on the past is just being hard on yourself. You can choose not to forgive, but it’s merely a stalemate with him. But if you confront him each day, how can you confront the remaining days? Can you do it for a month or two, for decades? Just thinking about it is exhausting. Don’t you feel tired?" Cheng Su said.
"I know, but it’s too difficult. Whenever I think of the scene of him with that woman, my heart feels like it’s being cut with a knife. Letting go is too hard!" Hualing suddenly began to cry.
