Let’s Divorce As Agreed - Chapter 131

Chapter 131: Apologize

“Mrs. Wang, I’m sorry, but this is just kids being kids. I hope you don’t mind,” Shu Pan apologized, though her concern for her daughter was evident.

“I didn’t say anything wrong. Shu Joy really doesn’t have a dad. Her dad has never come to pick her up,” Wang Zihang chimed in, as if he was worried about being misunderstood.

“It’s not true! I do have a dad. My mom says everyone has a dad. It’s just that my dad works in a faraway place,” Joy, despite her small stature, held this belief deeply and defended herself like a little wildcat, which probably helped her in the fight against the taller Wang Zihang.

“Joy, be good. You can’t fight with your classmates. Apologize to Wang Zihang, ”

Shu Pan crouched down and stroked Joy’s head, though Joy wasn’t very willing.

“People these days have complicated relationships. I bet nobody even knows who the child’s father is anymore,” Wang Zihang’s mother sarcastically remarked.

“Madam Wang, please watch your words.” Shu Pan’s tone was very stern.

Wang Zihang’s mother reluctantly kept quiet.

“Wang Zihang, don’t say such things to Joy again. Everyone has a dad, okay?” The teacher, who had informed the parents, stood nearby, worried about Wang Zihang’s education as his mother continued to cross the line.

“I understand, Madam,” Wang Zihang replied with his head lowered, nodding.

“I hope you’ll be more careful in the future. We send our children to kindergarten because we don’t want them to get hurt, ” Wang Zihang’s mother continued to scold the teacher.

“I’m sorry, Madam Wang. We’ll be more careful in the future,” the teacher apologized, feeling that she had failed to supervise the children properly.

With that, the incident came to a close.

On the way home, Shu Pan remained silent. Joy cast a timid glance at her mother and said softly, “Mom, I’m sorry, I won’t do it again.”

Joy had always been sensitive and could tell when her mother was upset.

Shu Pan stopped in her tracks, turned around, crouched down, and spoke sternly, “Joy, you must never use fighting to solve problems.”

Shu Pan was genuinely surprised by what happened today. She found it hard to believe that Joy, who was so small and timid, could get into a fight just because someone said she didn’t have a father. She was deeply shocked.

She realized she had underestimated the importance of a “father” in Joy’s eyes.

Shu Pan suddenly felt selfish. She had given birth to Joy, and even though she could provide her with plenty of love, she couldn’t replace the love of a father. “Wu…” Perhaps because of Shu Pan’s stern tone, Joy burst into tears.

Shu Pan hugged her daughter, her eyes also misting up.

“Sweetie, I’m sorry. Mommy wasn’t good enough to give you a complete family, complete love, but you were born, and I hope you can forgive Mommy!” Shu Pan reproached herself silently.

“Alright, let’s go home. Mommy will make you some cola chicken wings, okay?” Shu Pan comforted her, shifting her attention.

“Okay, Mommy, you’re the best. I love you,” Joy suddenly stopped crying and smiled, her mouth as sweet as if she had just had honey.

Hand in hand, the two of them happily went to buy groceries.

Wen Chi parked the car downstairs from Shu Pan’s place. He sat in the car, staring in the direction of Shu Pan’s home, torn about whether to go up.

He really missed them, but the thought of his mother’s attitude made him unsure of how to face Shu Pan. He wanted to find a foolproof solution, not wanting to inconvenience them..
