Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Let’s Part Ways.Sure, here’s the translation: "At the time, I felt that whenever Sisi spoke, Song Yang seemed to get agitated. Initially, he had no intention of hitting Cheng Lie, but eventually, he decided to make a move." Yun Tiancheng furrowed his brow. If their conversation unfolded exactly as Yun Shifei described... Then Yun Sisi’s words carried a certain nuance. With an ordinary boy, it might not matter, but this boy likes Yun Sisi. Didn’t Shi Fei get slapped by Xu Ya because of him last time? Logically speaking, Yun Sisi should dislike him, so why were her words laced with such a tone? Yun Tiancheng frowned deeply as he pondered for a long time, then asked Xu Ya, "Where’s Sisi?" "Sisi just fell asleep. She’s suffered so much today, and what, you actually believe what she said?" Xu Ya replied, annoyed. She even felt that Yun Tiancheng was being unreasonable. Instead of caring about Yun Sisi’s injuries, he turned around and started defending Yun Shifei. Just based on the few words Yun Shifei said, he deduced that Yun Sisi instigated Song Yang? That was ordinary conversation—it didn’t have a hint of instigation as far as she could tell. "I do have some doubts..." "Sisi would never do such a thing. You just can’t stand Yun Shifei being punished, but even the school acknowledged her wrongdoing for hitting someone and penalized her." Xu Ya interrupted him, angry. In the past, when Yun Tiancheng spoke up for Yun Shifei and scolded her, Xu Ya could still believe it was her own fault. But this time, no matter what, she couldn’t see anything reasonable about someone hitting another person. To her, hitting someone was simply wrong. Yun Tiancheng observed Xu Ya’s extreme reaction. He said to Yun Shifei, "Shifei, you should head upstairs; this doesn’t concern you." Yun Shifei nodded and slung her bag over her shoulder, walking upstairs. "You’re going to admonish me again, aren’t you?" Xu Ya glared at Yun Tiancheng. "Yun Tiancheng, you always say I’m spoiling Sisi. Look at the way you’re educating children—aren’t you spoiling her too?" "Shifei isn’t that kind of person." "Sisi isn’t that kind of person either." Their stances stood firmly opposed. After a long silence, Yun Tiancheng finally sighed. "I’ve been working so hard, and I don’t want to argue with you, but Xu Ya, have you noticed that even after Shifei came back, I still treat Sisi the same as before?" Even though he suspected Yun Sisi might be scheming behind the scenes, as long as he didn’t have clear evidence, he continued to interact with her as always. "But what about Shifei? All I see from you is hatred toward her. Xu Ya, is it because you’re so perfect yourself, and you like perfect children, that you can’t accept Shifei? But if it wasn’t our fault back then, Shifei could have grown up to be just as perfect as Sisi." Xu Ya came from a cultured family, graduated from a top university, and had a lively and cheerful personality. Many boys pursued her. At the time, Yun Tiancheng was one of them. In many people’s eyes, she was their dream girl. Much like Yun Sisi now—charming and loved by all. It’s likely Xu Ya liked Yun Sisi because she saw her younger self in her. But Yun Shifei? She was Yun Sisi’s complete opposite. Xu Ya loved that perfect, younger version of herself but couldn’t accept another child, not even her biological one. Xu Ya bit her lip, remaining silent. Yun Tiancheng lit a cigarette and began to smoke. "I’ve said so much to you before, and you never listen. Now I’m too tired to say anything anymore. If it doesn’t work out, let’s just separate." He had already had this thought before. If the family kept going this way, it would fall apart even if they didn’t drift apart emotionally. Might as well split up sooner than later. Xu Ya stared at Yun Tiancheng in disbelief upon hearing his words. "What did you say?" Yun Tiancheng flicked the ashes off his cigarette, his expression unprecedentedly serious. "I know I work a lot and can’t invest much energy into the family. These years have been hard on you. But if you truly can’t accept Shifei, then perhaps you take Sisi, I’ll take Shifei, and we’ll each live our own lives." Xu Ya was utterly shocked—Yun Tiancheng was actually saying this to her. Live their own lives?! He was willing to divorce her for Yun Shifei! Her thoughts were a whirlwind; she opened her mouth but couldn’t manage to say a single word. Before Yun Shifei was brought back, none of them could have fathomed their marriage would come to this. When Yun Shifei had gone missing, they had been anxious and heartbroken. Later, with Yun Sisi’s arrival, their grief had lessened somewhat. It almost felt as though being good to Yun Sisi was equivalent to being good to Yun Shifei. Those years, while searching for Yun Shifei, Yun Tiancheng had encountered many families that divorced because of their children. They couldn’t face each other, and living together only reminded them of the times they had their child, leaving them forever steeped in grief they couldn’t escape. Back then, Yun Tiancheng thought to himself, he couldn’t divorce Xu Ya; he had to overcome this hardship with her. So they adopted a girl, raising her as their own biological daughter. Later, Yun Shifei was found, and they thought their family of four would enjoy a happy reunion. But things hadn’t gone as expected. In the end, because Yun Shifei returned, they were heading toward divorce. Xu Ya refused to accept Yun Shifei and showed far more favoritism toward Yun Sisi than Yun Shifei. He had discussed this problem with her multiple times, and she’d promised to change for the better. Yet every time the same kind of situation arose, she kept hurting Yun Shifei over and over. The child had already suffered so much in the past, and yet, even after returning to her biological parents, she still had to endure hardship. He even wondered whether she might have been happier living with her adoptive parents. The thought filled Yun Tiancheng with heartache. It was all his fault for being so busy with work, leaving him no time to care for Yun Shifei, let alone spend time with her. He knew he hadn’t been a qualified father—moving forward, he ought to work less and spend more time with his children.

That night, Xu Ya, still cold toward Yun Tiancheng, went to Yun Sisi’s room to sleep with her. Yun Sisi curled up in Xu Ya’s arms. "Mom, did you and Dad have an argument?" She had just secretly sneaked into the hallway and overheard them. Xu Ya murmured an acknowledgment. "Is it because of me?" Yun Sisi’s voice was filled with guilt. "Don’t overthink it." Xu Ya didn’t want Yun Sisi to start feeling upset again. The child was far too sensitive. "Mom, I’m sorry. I don’t want an apology from my sister anymore. I just want you and Dad to be okay. I’ll study hard and make you proud," Yun Sisi said through sobs. Xu Ya stroked her hair. "It’s okay. Even if I really do divorce your dad, I won’t let you live a hard life." Xu Ya had made up her mind. If she and Yun Tiancheng truly couldn’t see eye-to-eye, then divorce wouldn’t be an issue. Nowadays, plenty of people get divorced. She could take Yun Sisi and live a good life. But Yun Tiancheng’s earlier words echoed in her mind—she liked Yun Sisi because she saw her younger, perfect self in her. "Mom, I don’t want you and Dad to get divorced. I hope our family stays together," Yun Sisi said, seemingly frightened, hugging Xu Ya tightly as she shook her head. No way. If that happened, Yun Shifei would receive all of Yun Tiancheng’s love, meaning the love she previously received from Xu Ya and Yun Tiancheng would have to be split with Yun Shifei. And for what?
