Lin Zhixing always knew that her boyfriend's uncle, He Yanchen, was cold-hearted and unapproachable. She had heard that the man was noble, self-controlled, and did not associate with women.
...After the evening rush hour, the roads were unobstructed and even the traffic lights were green all the way.
The car stopped at the roadside of the square, and Lin Zhixing got out after thanking him.
She had just taken two steps when she realized that someone was following her...
It’s He Yanchen.
"I'll go with you." He Yanchen directly stated his purpose.
"No need, I can go there by myself."
Lin Zhixing stopped.
From where she was standing, she could already see Shi Yang and Lin Zian.
She didn't want to go with a man.
He Yanchen also saw Lin Zian. He looked at the small figure in the distance. "As a father, I don't have the right to accompany my son, but I can at least watch from the side."
"What kind of father are you!?"
This sentence really angered Lin Zhixing.
She clenched her fists tightly, trying to suppress her inner emotions, but still couldn't help but question him:
"Where were you when I was going through the most difficult time? There is no father in the world more incompetent than you. You have no right to call yourself the father of your child!"
She didn't want to recall the suffering.
In a sense, everything was her own choice.
But when the man spoke so shamelessly here, she couldn't help but want to accuse him.
He Yanchen was silent.
Lin Zhixing tried to calm himself down. "Please stop being so self-righteous. I don't want to say any more hurtful words."
After she finished speaking, she quickly walked towards Lin Zian.
This time, He Yanchen did not follow.
He just stood there and watched.
I saw Lin Zhixing walking towards Shi Yang and Lin Zian, and he took two jogs when he was almost there.
I saw her waving and greeting two people, and she looked happy even from her back.
Lin Zian was also very happy to see her and showed her the new moves he had learned.
After the success, he high-fived Lin Zhixing and Shi Yang respectively to celebrate.
The lights in the square are bright, and the scene in the distance seems like a true portrayal of a happy family of three.
He Yanchen stood alone in the thick night, and it seemed as if a piece of his heart, which he had tried so hard to fill, had collapsed.
If he had been more selfish...
Will everything be different?
In fact, he had many chances to save everything.
The last time was on January 11th.
It was such a cold day, and Lin Zhixing stood alone at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau for such a long time.
It was he who broke his promise and he really had no right to say that he was the child's father.
But she was unwilling...
-
On the other side, the three of them played together until almost half past nine before they were ready to go home.
Shi Yang helped Lin Zian hold the skateboard, "Sister Zhixing, my work will be exhibited at an exhibition this weekend. Are you interested in coming and seeing it?"
"I want to go, I want to go!"
Before Lin Zhixing could speak, Lin Zian raised his hand first.
Shi Yang patted Lin Zian's head.
He was afraid that Lin Zhixing would be disappointed, so he added, "It's a very small exhibition, not very influential. The organizers gave me several tickets, but I really can't give them away, so I asked you."
“Of course,” Lin Zhixing said with a smile, “You’re still a student, so it’s great that your work can be included in the exhibition.”
"Saturday and Sunday, which day are you going? I'll go with you." Shi Yang asked cautiously, "I'm mainly worried that the works are too abstract for you to understand. I can help you introduce them."
"Sunday."
Lin Zhixing said.
Shi Yang nodded, "Okay!"
Shi Yang's car is basically parked in the same place every day.
When he was about to reach his car, Lin Zhixing subconsciously glanced in the direction he had just come from.
He Yanchen's car was still parked there and had not left.
Under the light of the street lights, you can vaguely see someone sitting in the driver's seat.
He hasn't left yet.
Lin Zhixing withdrew his gaze and followed his son.
She originally thought that He Yanchen was just sitting in the car during that time.
Until she got home and coaxed Lin Zian to sleep...
"Mom..." the son who had been quietly listening to the picture book said, "I'll tell you a secret."
"Um?"
Lin Zhixing shifted his gaze from the picture book to his son.
"I saw my dad when I was skateboarding at night." Lin Zian looked at him with his big, dark eyes. "He was standing very far away, but I knew I wasn't seeing him wrong!"
Lin Zhixing's heart tightened slightly, "Really?"
"Well, Dad stood there and watched for a long time. I even smiled at him. I don't know if he saw it or not."
When Lin Zian said these words, there was no sadness or sorrow in his voice.
But Lin Zhixing knew that his son definitely wanted his father to be with him.
She closed the picture book in her hand, patted her son's body lightly with her palm, and asked tentatively: "Do you want Dad to live with us?"
She always thought that their current life was good enough.
Things will get better and better in the future, and they don’t want He Yanchen to get involved in their lives.
But An An is innocent.
She only thinks about herself. Isn't that too selfish?
Lin Zian rolled his eyes and shook his head gently, "I don't hope so."
"Why?"
Lin Zhixing didn't expect this answer.
Lin Zian said: "Because my mother doesn't want it, I don't want it either."
Lin Zhixing asked, "What if Mom wants it?"
"Then I hope!"
Lin Zian obviously answered the last sentence faster.
Deep down, he hopes to live with He Yanchen, even though he has never seen his father and has never lived together since he was a child.
After arriving in North City, we've only met a few times...
Lin Zian clearly remembers what his father looked like.
