You wouldn\u2019t do that. And if you did, then it would be my fault.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy would it be your fault?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause it would mean I didn\u2019t do my best\u2014I didn\u2019t make you trust me completely, love me fully, or want to spend your life with me. That\u2019s why you\u2019d leave.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo if that happens, it\u2019s on me, not you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Du Yumeng looked at him for a moment, then suddenly reached out and pinched his cheek without saying a word.<\/p>\n<p>While watching the movie, Zhan Yiyang\u2019s attention was entirely on her\u2014he didn\u2019t follow the plot at all.<\/p>\n<p>He spent the whole time feeding her snacks.<\/p>\n<p>When the movie ended and they left the theater, Du Yumeng said, \u201cI\u2019ve been eating snacks all night and now I\u2019m full. It\u2019ll totally mess with my sleep. Can you walk with me for half an hour to help me digest? Then we can walk back and drive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This was exactly what Zhan Yiyang wanted most.<\/p>\n<p>He wished he could spend the whole night with Du Yumeng.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t until 11 p.m. that she finally returned home.<\/p>\n<p>She refused to let Zhan Yiyang drive her back.<\/p>\n<p>He insisted, but she warned, \u201cIf you really take me home, I\u2019ll ignore you for an entire month.\u201d<br \/>\nDu Yumeng successfully convinced Zhan Yiyang not to send her home.<\/p>\n<p>When she arrived, she found her mother still awake. Du Yumeng walked over, called out \u201cMom,\u201d sat beside her, and asked with concern, \u201cIt\u2019s so late\u2014why are you still up? Is something wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s nothing. I just couldn\u2019t sleep. Your dad went night fishing with his buddies and hasn\u2019t come back yet. I\u2019m waiting for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since Mr. Du retired, he\u2019d grown bored and become obsessed with fishing.<\/p>\n<p>He fished both during the day and at night, and had made many fishing friends.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Du couldn\u2019t control his hobby. All she could do was ask him to come home no later than midnight if he went fishing at night, to limit daytime fishing to half the day, and not to fish on holidays\u2014those were reserved for spending time with her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy does Dad love fishing so much?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Du Yumeng had known her father had recently taken to fishing, but she hadn\u2019t realized how addicted he\u2019d become\u2014going out nearly every night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho knows with him? Before he retired, he\u2019d fish on holidays. I\u2019d go with him sometimes. But back then, I was busy with the company and didn\u2019t really notice how much he enjoyed it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow that he\u2019s retired and staying home, he\u2019s suddenly remembered how much he loves it\u2014and just got hooked again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Du sighed. \u201cAs long as he comes home by midnight, I don\u2019t mind if he fishes at night. Staying at home all the time is boring. I can still go out with friends\u2014play cards, go shopping, relax in a hot spring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour dad doesn\u2019t enjoy any of that. Most of his friends haven\u2019t retired yet and are still busy working, so he doesn\u2019t have anyone to hang out with. If fishing makes him happy, then let him fish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After all, I\u2019m retired now and have plenty of time to do what I enjoy too.<\/p>\n<p>And it all depends on how capable the children are\u2014many of our peers are still working in their family businesses and can\u2019t retire yet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Zhan Yiyang said, \u201cAs long as you want to surpass your elder sister and become the richest woman in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17840","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17840","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17840"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17840\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17840"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17840"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17840"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
