Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

Chapter 764 - To Change for the Better (2)

Feng Tianyi paid attention to the shifting emotions that crossed Zhang Jiren's face. He could not see deceit from it, but he could clearly see Jiren's hatred for his half-brother and his regret that he was the cause of their problems right now. Moreover, he'd seen his unwavering love for the twin sister he was deprived to grow up with.

For Feng Tianyi, it was surprising to see Zhang Jiren able to develop such a protective trait towards his sister. They'd been separated for years, grew up in a totally different environment, yet Zhang Jiren treasured Tang Moyu like how Xiao Bao tried to look after Little Star.

"I'm not mad at you. I understand why you did it," he told Zhang Jiren after a long silence between them. He then turned to look at his wife whose hand was trembling beneath his.

Feng Tianyi's eyes softened, wanting to draw his wife into an embrace. Zhang Jiren might think that Tang Moyu would hate him now, but Feng Tianyi knew his wife better. So many times, this woman surprised him, proving to him each time that she wasn't an unreasonable person.

"Moyu…" He gently called her name, wanting to know how she'd taken her brother's confession.

When she lifted her chin to look at him, Feng Tianyi saw that tears rimmed her eyes, while Zhang Jiren was slightly taken aback by her reaction.

Shouldn't she be slapping him right now— telling him he wasn't worthy of becoming his twin brother? If it wasn't for him, Feng Tianyi wouldn't have suffered for years, Zhu Ziqian wouldn't have lost his family, and Tang Beixuan wouldn't have died.

"I… I'm sorry," he muttered before lowering his head in shame, knowing no matter what he said to defend himself, it wouldn't change anything.

"I appreciate that you came here personally to tell us this," Feng Tianyi said. "I also understand that you did it out of love and concern for your sister. I'm not saying what you did was right, but you shouldn't blame yourself. I'm sure none of us wanted these to happen. If I were the same Feng Tianyi years ago, I would be wary of your safety though." He chuckled. No doubt he would make sure to pay Zhang Jiren back a thousand-fold just to get even with him.

"But I know better now that my Moyu needs me. I couldn't just do reckless things expecting others not to retaliate for what I did. The same thing could be said to you, Zhang Jiren. Even though your marriage with Li Meili is just a farce, you have to be careful with your future actions, so they wouldn't be implicated in it," he explained.

To be honest, Feng Tianyi had so many regrets in life. He had even forgotten why he was living the way he did before. For such a long time, he lived with anger in his heart, blaming his father for all the bad things in his life, casting aside his mother who was left helpless trying to patch things up for him.

So, he understood where Zhang Jiren was coming from. He understood why his brother-in-law did such a thing against Feng Tianhua. So, in the end, the person who should have been in that accident was supposed to be his half-brother and not him.

Thinking of what could have happened if Zhang Jiren hadn't made that mistake, Feng Tianyi knew that he would remain the same horrible person that he was and would have even posed as a great threat to Tang Moyu and their children.

"You don't have to torture yourself like this anymore. It was enough for me that you confessed to your sins. Zhang Jiren, no matter what we did in the past, given that we're still alive today, don't you think we've been given a chance to change for the better?"

When Jiren looked unsure, he continued.

"People used to call me the 'devil', but do you know, I didn't want to become the person I was before. Perhaps, the reason heaven allowed me to survive that accident was for me to realize that I still have a chance to change the way I live for the better. The same thing goes for you, Zhang Jiren. You were able to survive the night of the death of your mother, and managed to live to this day. Don't waste your time blaming yourself. Moyu and I would be glad if you live your life to the fullest and without regrets."

Hadn't he wasted enough years hating his father and Feng Tianhua? Although Feng Tianyi was sure that he and his half-brother would never be able to reconcile, he didn't want to waste his time like a fool, arguing with him like what he did in the past. He would retaliate through his actions and not words. It might take some time, but he was sure he would be able to kick Feng Tianhua out of Feng Conglomerate.

Zhang Jiren was rendered speechless by his answer, clearly not expecting to receive such a reaction from Feng Tianyi. Unlike his brother-in-law though, Tang Moyu's face had a complex expression on it.

"Thank you…" he told Feng Tianyi. Knowing that his brother-in-law had understood and forgiven him was a big deal for him— but what about his sister? Would Tang Moyu be able to find it in her heart to forgive him as well?

Since Feng Tianyi already said his piece, and knowing Zhang Jiren wanted to talk to his sister privately, he rose to his feet and excused himself in the pretense of needing to check on the twins.

He kissed Tang Moyu's crown before whispering to her ear. historical

"I know you are upset, Baby, but you have to listen to what he has to say," he murmured before leaving his wife with Zhang Jiren.

Still, Tang Moyu remained silent, staring blankly at her clasped hands resting on the dining table as she pondered and tried to understand what happened.
