Chapter 447 Using the Child to Control Her

"Dad said that you want to divorce him." Little Lizi blinked her big watery eyes and looked at the person in front of her with a puzzled look.

Although she was still young at that time, since children nowadays generally have access to the Internet at an early age, she already had some preliminary understanding of the word "divorce".

I remember that day, when Xiao Lizi heard her father say this word, she felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.

Later, it was Jiang Huaixu who patiently explained to her the true meaning of "divorce".

Jiang Huaixu told Xiao Lizi that the so-called divorce means that dad and mom will no longer live together, and they will live their own lives separately.

This also means that from now on, Xiaolizi and her younger brother may find it difficult to see their mother again.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lizi's eyes couldn't help but become moist.

The more Little Lizi thought about it, the sadder she felt. Her little heart seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze.

"When did your father tell you about this?" Chi Feiwan frowned tightly and asked suspiciously.

Her originally pretty face now looked a little solemn because of doubt.

"It was this morning when he sent me to school." Little Lizi blinked her innocent big eyes and answered everything.

No wonder Jiang Huaixu, who is always busy, would suddenly send Xiaolizi to school in person today. There was such a thought hidden in his mind.

The more Chi Feiwan thought about it, the angrier she became. Jiang Huaixu actually used their child to try to influence her thoughts and prevent her from filing for a divorce.

It was as if a voice kept echoing in her ears: "Think about your child carefully. Can you bear to let your child live in a broken family?"

Jiang Huaixu knew that children would always be Chi Feiwan's weak spot.

Jiang Huaixu couldn't persuade Chi Feiwan, so he used his children to persuade Chi Feiwan.

At such a young age, Xiao Lizi, who is not even ten years old, has already learned to read people's expressions.

Her big eyes, as clear as water, were fixed on her mother Chi Feiwan's face, and not even the slightest change in her expression could escape her keen observation.

At this moment, Xiao Lizi walked forward gently, stretched out her slightly tender little hands, and held Chi Feiwan's hands tightly.

She raised her head, her eyes full of pleading, and said with a trembling voice: "Mom, please don't leave me and my brother..."

Hearing his daughter's words, Chi Feiwan was stunned for a moment, as if he had been struck by an invisible lightning.

She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton and she couldn't utter a word.

Blood is thicker than water, and this bond of kinship is one of the most difficult to break in the world.

How could Chi Feiwan bear to leave her children behind? Her marriage with Jiang Huaixu had long been like a broken wall, shaky and crumbling, and there was no need to continue it.

Now, Chi Feiwan is faced with an extremely difficult choice.

On one side is the long-awaited freedom, and on the other side are the beloved children.

And all of this was forced on her by Jiang Huaixu. He was using this cruel method to force her to make a choice between the two.

Should I choose to sacrifice myself, give up the opportunity to pursue freedom, stay with my children, or be hard-hearted, selfish for once, and pursue my own life?

Chi Feiwan fell silent. If she divorced Jiang Huaixu, how would she communicate with her children would also be a problem.

Night falls quietly and the whole city is shrouded in bright lights.

At this time, Chi Feiwan sat quietly in the living room, looking towards the door from time to time, as if waiting for someone to return.

In the past, Chi Feiwan always went to bed early and never waited so patiently for Jiang Huaixu to come home.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally there was a slight sound of a key turning, and the door slowly opened.

The moment Jiang Huaixu stepped into the house, he saw Chi Feiwan sitting in the living room.

At that moment, the corners of his lips unconsciously rose slightly, revealing a gentle smile.

Jiang Huaixu is best at disguise.

"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" Jiang Huaixu's voice broke the silence in the room.

Chi Feiwan took a deep breath, stood up, and looked at Jiang Huaixu with a firm gaze, "Jiang Huaixu, what did you say to Xiao Lizi?"

Jiang Huaixu's eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly regained his composure. He walked to the sofa and sat down. "What can I say to my daughter? Even if I say something, it's reasonable. Do you want to interfere in the conversation between father and daughter?"

"Did you tell her that we want a divorce?" Chi Feiwan said in a cold tone.

Jiang Huaixu was silent for a moment, "It's you who wants to divorce me, not me who wants to divorce you."

"Jiang Huaixu, you are forcing me to make a choice. I don't want our divorce to involve our child!" Chi Feiwan said.

Jiang Huaixu stared at Chi Feiwan with a sharp gaze, his voice carrying a hint of anger, "Involved? Chi Feiwan, don't you know what will happen to the child if our relationship changes? How can such a young child face those overwhelming rumors? Think about it, weren't you also deeply affected by them when you were a child, surrounded by all kinds of gossip?

But now, how can you bear to let your children suffer the same situation! "

Chi Feiwan's anger instantly ignited when she heard these words. She straightened her back and retorted without flinching, "Jiang Huaixu, these are two completely different things!"

Jiang Huaixu did not stop because of Chi Feiwan's rebuttal, but continued to say aggressively: "Different? What's the difference? Whether it's you back then or the children now, don't you have to endure the pain of being pointed at and talked about? Aren't you the topic of conversation because of your parents? "

Chi Feiwan seemed to be frozen in place, standing there in a daze.

This person who was once so close to me would actually use such sharp words to hurt my heart.

At this moment, she deeply understood the saying - often the people closest to you can inflict the greatest harm.

Jiang Huaixu liked to poke his sore spots, and Chi Feiwan was not to be outdone: "Jiang Huaixu, you can't change my decision by yourself, so you use the child to change my decision.

I guess this is what you thought in your mind, that one day your wife was no longer under your control.

And you thought of using the child to control me again!"

It was late at night, and after Chi Feiwan said this, the house fell into silence again.
