Chapter 1420: It’s Because I Love You Too Much That I Suffer
"really……"
Sheng Tingye's eyes were filled with tears as he recalled the time when he and Chu Zhixin had just gotten married.
At that time, Chu Zhixin's entire family had just been wiped out and her family was in decline. She married into the Sheng family and lived in the home of a completely stranger. She didn't know how much contempt and cold treatment she suffered.
But even so, she played the role of the second young lady of the Sheng family very well, and was also a good wife who was considerate and gentle in every way.
Now that I think about it, if it wasn’t for deep love, how could I have made such a sacrifice?
"I am sorry for her, and our whole family is sorry for her."
Sheng Tingye's voice was a little hoarse and choked, his eyes were full of guilt, and he covered his face with his hands in pain, "So, all the pain I'm experiencing now is the retribution I deserve!"
"Nonsense!"
Sheng Younan was so angry that he used up all his strength to pat Sheng Tingye's arm and said earnestly: "Kid, you like to put pressure on yourself. You didn't do anything bad, so how can you be punished? At that time, you were in an arranged marriage, and you had no feelings for Xiaochu, so it was normal for you to ignore her."
"I didn't do anything bad, but..."
When Sheng Tingye thought of the complicated past between the Chu family and the Sheng family, he felt his heart throbbing and was in great pain. "But the Sheng family did a lot of things that were unfair to the Chu family. I am a member of the Sheng family, and I deserve retribution."
"Bah, bah, bah, bah, I told you to stop talking nonsense. The grudges of the previous generation are the previous generation's. What does it have to do with you? You two really love each other, and you have two such lovely children. Don't say such depressing words!"
As a person of the older generation, Sheng Younan had heard a little about the feud between the Chu family and the Sheng family.
But hearsay is hearsay, and at most it is just gossip among the wealthy circles. The authenticity remains to be verified. At least in the eyes of outsiders, the Sheng family and the Chu family have been close friends for generations, and their relationship is so good that they need to marry each other.
"Aunt, you..."
Sheng Tingye raised his head, paused for a moment, took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know about my father and Chu Zhixin's mother?"
"Their business?"
Sheng Younan's eyes flickered. He felt inexplicably nervous about these two people being deployed together. He said in a veiled manner, "I'm not sure about this. I just remember that they were classmates a long time ago, so they should have a good relationship."
“The relationship is pretty good.”
Sheng Tingye guessed that Sheng Younan didn't know more than him, so he didn't continue the topic. He just sighed and said, "Chu Zhixin and I do love each other. From the beginning to now, we have always loved each other deeply. I have this confidence. But love alone is useless. If love can only bring harm, then I would rather not love."
"Is it so exaggerated?"
Sheng Younan looked at Sheng Tingye, who had a painful and forbearing expression, and frowned in confusion, "I really don't understand the concepts of you young people. If it is love, why does it turn into hurt? If you love each other, isn't that the happiest thing in the world?"
"It's because I love you too much that I feel pain."
Sheng Tingye sighed.
"Tsk tsk, I may have gotten old. I really don't understand what you two are loving each other for. In my opinion, if two people love each other, they can be together. Besides, you were once husband and wife, and you have two children to maintain your relationship. The depth of your relationship is much deeper than those young couples. How can they love each other so well, but you have to be enemies?"
In fact, Sheng Younan doesn't pay much attention to Sheng Tingye's love life, but Sheng Tingye is, after all, the president of the famous Shanda Group and a business tycoon that everyone admires. His every move and all his emotional trends are basically open and transparent, and countless eyes are watching him.
So, even if she didn't want to pay attention, she had to pay attention to when Sheng Tingye got married, divorced, or broke up.
However, it is quite ironic that all the gossip about Sheng Tingye over the years, as long as it involves emotions, is related to Chu Zhixin.
Although Xu Yanran and Lin Yirou appeared in the story, these two women seemed more like "side dishes" to highlight how deep the love between Sheng Tingye and Chu Zhixin was. They only played a decorative role and never entered Sheng Tingye's heart.
From the beginning to the end, Sheng Tingye’s emotional entanglements, to put it bluntly, are all about Chu Zhixin!
"Have you ever seen plays like Romeo and Juliet or The Butterfly Lovers?"
Sheng Tingye suddenly asked Sheng Younan for no reason.
"Then my aunt must have seen it. She loves watching these love tragedies. They make me cry so hard."
Sheng Younan said this with a smile, not hiding the fact that beneath her strong woman appearance, she had a girlish heart.
It is precisely because she has a girlish heart and believes in pure feelings that she has not married or had children for so many years, because no man meets her standard of a perfect partner.
Her nephew does fit the description, but it's a pity that he is her nephew!
"Yes, you also said it, a love tragedy..."
Sheng Tingye said bluntly: "Since ancient times, touching love stories have always ended in tragedy. Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Romeo and Juliet, all had tragic endings. Do you think they loved each other? Of course they did, but the result of their love can only end in tragedy. It's better not to fall in love."
Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in the East and Romeo and Juliet in the West both ended up with death. Sheng Tingye felt that if he and Chu Zhixin continued to love each other given their current situation, the ending would probably be death.
Just like today on the rooftop, if he really hurt Chu Zhihan, Chu Zhixin would definitely not let him go. Not only would she not let him go, she would not let herself go either.
He really didn't dare to think about what would happen.
Therefore, keeping distance and restraining emotions are the only things he can do for her!
"Hey, those are all novels and TV shows. The creators deliberately exaggerated them for the sake of the plot. In reality, there are not so many deep hatreds and family feuds. Aren't there just simple men and women who love each other in an ordinary way and have wives and children and a warm bed?"
Sheng Younan waved his hand and spoke casually.
She has always made a clear distinction between fiction and reality, and doesn't think that the situation between Sheng Tingye and Chu Zhixin can rise to the level of Romeo and Juliet.
"Don't think so much. If there is anything, talk to Xiaochu and see if there is a solution. It's not that you decide everything by yourself and then suffer and get hurt here alone."
Sheng Younan comforted Sheng Tingye, hoping that he could communicate more with Chu Zhixin.
Sheng Tingye shook his head. "The result of communication is that tragedy will come early."
