Xu Wenwan was very impatient. She’d already severed ties with Village Chief Xu, so what right did he have to hit her?
Stung by Xu Wenwan’s words, Village Chief Xu staggered. Xu Chongfeng immediately rushed forward to support him. Just as he was about to scold Xu Wenwan, Village Chief Xu cut him off.
"Shut your mouth."
Seeing Village Chief Xu’s grim expression, Xu Chongfeng shut his mouth.
Village Chief Xu looked at Xu Wenwan. "Fine. Since you say we’ve severed our ties, I’ll handle this by the book. Did you hit him?"
"I did," Xu Wenwan admitted without the slightest hesitation.
The moment she spoke, Hu Ziqiang exploded. "Xu Wenwan, do you have any idea what you’re saying? Why would you do that?"
He had been defending her just moments ago. Even after she walked in, he still held onto a sliver of trust.
But hearing her admit it with her own mouth, Hu Ziqiang’s world shattered.
Xu Wenwan looked at Hu Ziqiang, and scenes of the three of them together from the past surfaced in her mind. For a moment, a lost look flickered in her eyes. She didn’t know how things had ended up like this either.
She never wanted to marry Yun Hao, and he never wanted to marry her.
Her father, her mother, her two older brothers—they were the ones who forced her to get married.
At this thought, Xu Wenwan whipped her head toward Village Chief Xu. "Dad, are you satisfied now? Isn’t this exactly the outcome you wanted?"
Village Chief Xu sucked in a sharp breath. "What did you just say?"
Xu Wenwan sneered. "I don’t like Yun Hao, and he doesn’t like me. Neither of us wanted to get married. You forced us. Now that our lives have turned out like this, aren’t you satisfied?"
All the strength seemed to drain from Village Chief Xu in an instant. If Xu Chongfeng hadn’t been holding him up, he might have collapsed on the spot.
He pointed at himself. "You’re saying... it’s my fault?"
Xu Wenwan looked away. "Weren’t you the one who forced us to get married?"
Village Chief Xu looked at his daughter, who seemed more and more like a stranger. When she had first returned, she still bore some resemblance to the Xu Family, but now it was as if she had become a completely different person.
