Lin Man was very curious about what they would say, but after thinking it over, he walked a little further away and stood in a place where he could not hear their voices but could still hear any slight noise in the valley.
In the valley, Chen Yu looked at the man before him for a long moment before saying, "You're here. Sit down."
The voice was calm and even. She had been waiting for this reunion for far too long.
At first, she looked forward to it day and night, hoping that every time someone called her name, she would see him when she turned around, or when she woke up, this man would be sitting next to her and say to her, I'm back.
But nothing happened. Every time she looked back, she couldn't see that face. Every time she woke up, there was still nothing around her. The longing only grew into resentment and hatred, and in the end, it turned into endless disappointment and numbness.
Whenever her daughter asked about her father, she would tell her in a very gentle tone that your father is a good man, a very gentle and responsible person, and she would also reveal a nostalgic and attached smile.
But only she knew that everything was fake. What else could she do if she didn't say that? Would she hysterically vent her resentment and pain? Would she let her daughter know how disappointed she was in her father and let her live in resentment with her?
She wanted her daughter to have beautiful expectations for this identity even though she had lost her father, so that her heart would be filled with hope rather than darkness and heaviness.
As she talked more and more, she gradually deceived herself. Whenever she immersed herself in memories, she could get some satisfaction and comfort, as if she really missed her husband so much and was attached to him, without a trace of shadow.
Until yesterday, when she knew that he was still alive, the wish hidden in her heart for many years came true. She was really happy for her, but after this brief happiness, the lies she had deceived herself in the past were also shattered, and the various complex emotions that followed almost overwhelmed her and made her almost unbearable.
But in front of her daughter, she gritted her teeth and endured it all. She skipped all of that and thought directly about the meeting, and then she was shocked to realize how terrible her image was.
If her daughter did not have that ability, and she had to complete this meeting with that image, her heart would definitely be tormented like boiling oil in a raging fire, but her daughter was capable and considerate. Seeing her busy and working hard for her, her heart gradually calmed down.
Become rational and restrained.
She looked at the unfamiliar face in front of her, and she could no longer tell whether she loved this person more or hated him more.
Lin Cheng held her hand, not knowing what to say for a long time. After a long while, he said, "Ayu, you have suffered so much over the years. I am sorry for you."
Chen Yu looked at their hands put together. Her hands were rough, and his were coarse. Neither was better than the other, but her hands were much whiter than his. Thinking of the effort her daughter had put into her, she couldn't help but smile slightly.
She said, "It's all in the past, and I don't want to talk about it anymore. Just fulfill your responsibilities as a father in the future. Xiaoman has had a hard time these years. She is very strong and sensible, and a very good child. I don't have the ability to give her a good life, I don't have the ability to support her, but now that you've appeared, all these things will be done by you from now on."
"Of course! I will give her the best of everything, and I will give you the best of everything. I will make it up to you."
Chen Yu didn't say anything, just smiled. In fact, she didn't lie to her daughter. Lin Zhongrong was indeed a very responsible person. Knowing that he didn't have any other children in all these years, and seeing that he cared about and valued his daughter, she felt relieved. As long as he was good to her daughter, it would be enough. Thinking that her daughter would finally have a backer in the future, Chen Yu felt satisfied.
As for the rest, she didn't want to talk about it or mention it anymore.
Lin Zhongrong talked about those years: "I was suddenly called away for special training..."
"Let's not talk about those things anymore." Chen Yu interrupted him calmly. None of that mattered anymore. Even if there were any difficulties, could it change everything that happened later? She no longer wanted to know the reason.
Lin Zhongrong was silent for a moment, then asked about her legs: "When did it happen?"
"It's only been these few years, but even if you hadn't come, Xiaoman would have been able to help me with the treatment, and I've got the medicine."
