Zheng Wan’s cap was big, covering most of her face so no one could see her expression. They could only see the corners of her lips, which were initially smiling, froze instantly. Even her delicate chin looked cold.
“Wanwan, I’ve avenged our daughter…” Lu Feng panicked for some reason. He feared that Zheng Wan would reject him, but he also feared she would show a sad and repulsive expression. He could only keep saying these words in his panic, trying to hide his uneasiness. “Lu Guo and his wife have already been brought to prison. The arson case back then will also be re-investigated. Wanwan, I’ve never dared to talk to you all these years, afraid I would remind you of those sad things. But now I’ve done it…”
“Lu Feng.” Zheng Wan finally spoke. Her voice was a little hoarse, and her lips were pursed as if she was considering her words. After a while, she said softly, “Why are you doing this?” What exactly had he been carrying for so many years?
“Wanwan, I dream of you and our daughter every night.” Lu Feng’s eyes were red, and a faint watery light flickered in them. “I dreamed that you asked me why I didn’t protect you. I didn’t know how to face you. I felt guilty.” Therefore, he could only hide that Zheng Wan was alive and help her cover up all traces. Then, he quietly stood at the side and watched her. He carefully kept a distance from her, not daring to make her distressed.
Lu Feng was a middle-aged man. At this moment, his back bent, and he looked a little old for no reason. He sobbed softly. So what if he had taken revenge? Their daughter would forever be stuck on the day of her one-month-old birthday. Zheng Wan’s eyes would never be able to see this beautiful world again. He was not a qualified husband, much less a qualified father.

Zheng Wan tilted her face as if she was listening to Lu Feng’s words, filled with endless regret and remorse. At the same time, it was as if she could not bear to see him in such pain.
“Wanwan, I don’t dare to ask you to forgive me. Even in my dreams, I want to be with you again.” Lu Feng finally managed to calm himself down. His voice was low and hoarse. Facing Zheng Wan’s calm appearance, he recalled the past. Even though his heart was about to tear apart, he did not want to make things difficult for her. He only said softly, “But I will support your choice. Wanwan, we’re not young anymore. I only hope that you can live happily now.”
Zheng Wan’s response to Lu Feng was a long silence. Lu Feng didn’t seem to be disappointed. He said what was on his mind,” I sold all my shares to Lu Guo in exchange for a lot of money. Wanwan, I hope you can accept this money as compensation to you. Now, I’m not afraid that someone will harm you. I hope you can live a more convenient life so that this money will be the property division after our divorce.” His eyes were fixed on Zheng Wan, unwilling to move away. He could not even bear to blink. Such strong emotions made the onlookers cry uncontrollably. However, Lu Feng maintained his tone and continued, “Didn’t you want to keep a dog last time? With this money, you can do whatever you want. If you find me annoying, I won’t disturb you…”
“Lu Feng.” Zheng Wan called out and raised her head slightly. Even though Lu Feng knew the fire had damaged her eyes and could no longer see, he still felt like he was being watched. This made him choke. The emotions that he had painstakingly suppressed instantly surged like a tsunami. The psychological defense that he had just established collapsed. His hands were trembling, and he let out a sorrowful cry. Tears rolled down his cheeks. He covered his eyes and replied, “I’m here.”
