Retribution came quickly indeed.
In the middle of the night, as she slept in bed, she overheard her parents talking.
"Sigh, honey, now that we're both so young again, how about we start dating all over again?" Zhao's father's voice said.
"Sure!" Mother Zhao replied cheerfully.
Uh, these two were really something. Then again, they didn't know their daughter could hear them, or they definitely wouldn't have done this.
Zhao Han listened in embarrassment, but she was still happy inside. After all, parents getting along well was every child's wish. However, she soon found herself unable to stay happy.
"Hey, beautiful, where are you headed? Can I add you on WeChat?" Zhao's father's frivolous voice sounded exactly like a young guy hitting on someone, making Zhao Han even more embarrassed.
"Get lost!" Mother Zhao refused without hesitation, leaving Zhao Han dumbfounded.
"Y-you-you... old woman, why aren't you following the script?"
"I didn't think much of you back then anyway. If the handsome guy I liked had liked me back, when would it ever have been your turn? Now that the child's grown up and doesn't need me worrying about her, I can go look for true love."
Uh, so that was how it was. Mom was about to leave me...
Zhao Han felt thirty percent embarrassed, thirty percent depressed, and thirty percent miserable. The last ten percent was the feeling that she had brought this upon herself.
After returning home, Zhao Han told Wang Wenwen about it, and the latter burst out laughing.
"You're still laughing? I'm in pain right now, okay?"
"Come on, what's so bad about that? When my dad and mom got divorced, I didn't care. Kids can't interfere with adults' relationship problems. Everything else can be discussed, but feelings are the one thing you can't force.
