After uttering these words, Shen Man felt relieved.

Perhaps they should have divorced long ago.

It would have liberated her, given Tan Shu freedom, and prevented All Zhi from harboring resentment for so long.

“No, I’m not getting a divorce.” Lu Tanshu’s eyes welled up with tears. “Ah Man, 1 can clean up all the mess around me. I’ll only be guarding you. Even if you don’t forgive me or ignore me, I’m willing. Please, don’t divorce me, don’t leave me…”

After saying that, he knelt in front of Shen Man

He used a pious posture to plead with her.

Shen Man was also very upset. After all, he was the person she loved deeply and had two sons.

She had spent most of her life with him.

But…

She really couldn’t go on.

His actions over the years had worn out her patience and enthusiasm.

Now that she was facing him, she wasn’t as intimate as a stranger.

Shen Man took a deep breath and shook her head firmly as she said, “I’ve made up my mind. Tan Shu, let’s make it clean. Don’t make things too ugly for each other.”

“No… No… 1 don’t want to…”

Lu Tanshu sobbed and denied the reality.

He reached out to pull Jiang Yining and said, “Yining, please persuade your mother not to divorce me. We can’t let this family fall apart. Ah Zhi, you should also persuade your mother…”

Jiang Yining looked at him indifferently, showing pity.

There must be something hateful about a pitiful person.

He was the one who had let Shen Man, Lu Zhi, and Lu Beicheng down.

Now, he wasn’t qualified to ask for forgiveness, nor was he qualified to ask Shen Man to stay.

However, he was her father-in-law, so she wouldn’t openly despise him.

Nor would she intercede for him.

Lu Zhi remained silent either.

Old Madam Lu shouted, “Ah Shu, you’re a man! A real man! Don’t kneel to her. Isn’t she just a woman? After she leaves, you can marry someone younger and prettier! Why do you have to beg her!”

Lu Tanshu heard that his mother was still spouting nonsense.

He pounced on her and grabbed her arm. He shouted at her heartbreakingly, “Shut up! Shut up! If it weren’t for you back then, 1 wouldn’t have misunderstood Ah Man! It’s all your fault. You ruined my life! Are you still a mother? Are you worthy of being called mom by me? I hate you! Get lost!”

He pushed the Old Madam hard.

Old Madam Lu staggered and retreated more than ten steps.

In the end, she was supported by Yu Lingyu.

Old Master Lu walked up to Lu Tanshu, raised his hand high, and slapped his face. “Have you embarrassed yourself enough? You’ve let Ah Man down for so many years. Letting her go now is the last thing you can do for her! Stop blaming others for your mistakes!”

Lu Tanshu stood rooted to the ground, covering his face in despair.

Shen Man spoke calmly, “Tan Shu, we can’t blame anyone for coming to this point. Even if you really trusted me, you shouldn’t have made such a mistake back then. Let’s part on good terms.”

After saying that, she walked out.

Jiang Yining quickly followed.

Lu Tanshu wanted to chase after her but was stopped by Old Master Lu.

His eyes were bloodshot as he shouted at Lu Zhi, “Ah Zhi, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and stop your mother!”

Lu Zhi, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke up when he heard this, “Dad, even if 1 stop my mom, what else can you say? You hid the truth from me and Beicheng for over twenty years. You’re really a responsible father!”

Lu Zhi gritted his teeth when he said the last two words.

He tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

If the person standing in front of him wasn’t his father, he would definitely be beaten to a pulp just based on his actions!

Lu Zhi’s eyes were covered with a layer of frost.

Lu Tanshu said with a trembling voice, “Yes, I was wrong. But Ah Zhi… We’re family. Can you bear to see me separate from your mother?”

“My mother has been imprisoned in this house for more than 20 years. Now that 1 know the truth, if 1 still join hands with you to confine her to this family, am I still human?” Lu Zhi spoke word by word, “If you still treat me as your son, simply divorce my mother. Otherwise, I won’t stand on your side.”

After saying that, he turned around and left resolutely.

The strength in Lu Tanshu’s body was instantly drained. His expression was haggard and much more weathered.

It was as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

All these years… n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He had thought of telling Ah Zhi and Beicheng the truth, but he had never dared to.

Partly because of the oath he made in front of Ah Man, and partly because he was afraid that if his sons knew, they would ignore him forever..
