ask
"I'm sorry, if you can't tell me the reason, I can't take you to find him." Du Lin did not give in.
"Then can you help me ask him if he is willing to meet a girl named Shi Shi."
"Okay, I can ask him for you," Du Lin agreed. "Actually, even if I ask for you, you won't be able to see him. He should be at the train station now."
"What?" Shi Shi didn't quite believe what he said.
"I'm not lying. I bought the ticket a long time ago."
"So where is he going?"
"But I really don't know where he'll go. He's always like this, leaving without any warning after a while and never coming back."
Shi Shi fell silent. When Du Lin lost his patience and wanted to leave after waiting for a while, she spoke again.
"That's okay. I can wait. If he comes back someday, please ask him to come see me."
"Then I really don't know." Du Lin did not agree directly. After looking at her, he grabbed his schoolbag and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Shi Shi chased out alone.
"What happened again?"
"This wallet is yours." Shi Shi returned the wallet to its original owner. "Thank you anyway."
"No need to thank me, I didn't help you either." Du Lin took it, and it was really his wallet.
"I'm sorry. It's not that I didn't want to tell you before, but it's because this story has been hidden in my heart for so long, and I thought I needed some time to sort it out. But now I realize that there's actually nothing to prepare. It's just a sentence, there's no need to hide it."
"I want to see him because he is my biological father."
I wanted to meet him because I had never met him, at least not that I could remember.
I don't want to ask why he disappeared from my life, I just want to see him.
"So, I hope you can help me and let me meet him."
These two sentences did not require much courage or effort, but they were the truest thoughts in the deepest part of her heart that she had spent a long time to slowly understand.
Shi Shi stood there and waited patiently for his reply.
"Okay, if he contacts me again next time, I will let you know." Du Lin heard what she said, digested it for a while, and then said it in relief.
"Thanks."
She turned around and waved to the two people who were still sitting in the milk tea shop but looking at her through the glass window with a sincere smile on her face.
This was the first time Qin Yichuan saw her smile so brilliantly, and he was stunned for a moment.
"Let's go home," she said to them.
They didn't know whether they heard or understood what she said. Two of them walked out of the milk tea shop one after the other and walked towards her.
"Thank you very much for what happened today, but I have another request. I hope you can keep today's incident a secret for me." When they arrived at the door of the house, Shi Shi told them this request, because she didn't want Shi Yiqing to know about this matter for the time being.

After Du Lin walked away, he took out his cell phone and saw the text message sent by Uncle Feng a few minutes ago.
Uncle Feng—"I'll send the stuff directly to your house."
He looked at the words and hesitated whether to convey Shi Shi's words.
He had agreed before, but now he suddenly hesitated.
Feng Yun is an uncle he has only known in recent years. He suddenly appeared in Du Lin's life after Du Lin's father took a borrowed money to go out of town to start a business. At first, when Du Lin saw the man who claimed to be his father's friend, Du Lin thought he was a liar and ignored him.
But later the man found his home and met his grandmother, and he realized that the man was not lying.
However, he only came to the city occasionally, staying for a few days each time, and would bring him something every time. He did not visit his house often because Du Lin's mother did not like him visiting her very much.
Uncle Feng likes to give things directly to Du Lin. He is afraid that when he goes to Du's house, his grandmother will ask him about his father, and he is also afraid of meeting Du Lin's mother who comes back occasionally.
In fact, he has only known Uncle Feng for three years.
Uncle Feng would not tell him about his own affairs, but Du Lin remembered it very clearly. When he came to the Du family that day, his grandmother asked him some questions, and he remembered one of the sentences.
His grandmother said, Feng Yun, I remember your daughter is about the same age as my daughter Linlin.
Although Grandma Du has a poor memory due to her age, the things she remembers are not fabricated out of thin air.
So, Uncle Feng does have a daughter.
He also vaguely recalled that Uncle Feng's attitude at that time seemed very strange.
Perhaps, the reason why Uncle Feng didn't go to his house later was because he was afraid that grandma would ask him about his own affairs.
"Grandma, has Uncle Feng been here?" Du Lin asked his grandmother who was sitting on the sofa watching TV as soon as he got home.
"Well, yes." Grandma Du was concentrating on watching TV and took the time to reply to him.
"Grandma, I want to ask you something."
"Well, go ahead."
"Is Uncle Feng married?"
"Of course I'm married. I have a daughter who's the same age as you." Grandma Du said, then suddenly remembered something. "Linlin, go to my room and take out that iron box from under the bed."
"Oh." Du Lin found the box as his grandmother had said. "Is this it?"
"This is it." Grandma Du slowly opened the box and pointed at the photos inside. "Your aunt brought these photos to me last week. Go buy me an album tomorrow to put them in."
"You don't have to buy photo albums, there are some ready-made ones." Du Lin remembered that the school gave photo albums as gifts during several holidays. He ran to his room and found them. "Grandma, let me help you."
"Well, be careful." Grandma Du handed him a photo, watched him put it up, and then handed him another one.
Du Lin put the photos in order one by one. These old photos, which were obviously very old, had to be handled carefully, otherwise they would be gone if they were damaged.
"Well, the person in this photo is your uncle Feng and his wife." Grandma Du held a photo in her hand, looked at it carefully, and pointed it to Du Lin.
Du Lin took it and looked at it. There were four people in the photo. He recognized at a glance that the other two were his father and mother. As for the other two, one looked like his uncle Feng, and the other woman was Uncle Feng's wife.
He took the photo and looked at it carefully again.
"Isn't this girl pretty?" Grandma Du was referring to Uncle Feng's wife.
"Yes, it looks good." Du Lin responded, and kept putting the photo carefully into the album.
This person is not only good-looking, but also looks familiar.
