Father Wu really didn't want to recall past events, but confronted by his son's disapproving gaze, he knew he had to clarify things.

He chose to be demobilized not because he didn't want to stay in the military, but because he couldn't stay any longer and wasn't allowed to leave or he would be investigated.
It was merely a choice between pros and cons, and thankfully, Mrs. Wu's maternal family was supportive, arranging a decent job. That was how they ended up living in Quan City.
After hearing this, Haipeng truly had nothing to say about his own father.
He had originally thought Father Wu had his reasons, that at least his father's image could be preserved, but now he realized it was not the case at all—the disappointment was too great.
Father Wu finished speaking, then looked at Mrs. Wu.
