"Xingxing wants to tell grandpa?" Sheng Zexi asked, touching his head.
Xingxing nodded.
"If you want to tell, then tell."
Sheng Zexi was not surprised that Xingxing had this idea.
The old man must have been very attentive to the stars in the past two months.
Although he himself has a bad relationship with the old man, Sheng Zexi never carries over the relationships and grudges of his generation to the next generation.
Besides, why not have one more person to be nice to your children?
Soon, Sheng Xinhao learned that his son Sheng Zexi had come to Beijing and would take Xingxing and Yueyue back tomorrow.
"This kid didn't even know to take Xingxing, Yueyue and their wives back home. He wanted to take them away as soon as he got here!"
"Why are you telling me? Do you want me to send them off?"
"I'm not going!"
Sheng Xinhao was furious and kept complaining.
-
The next morning, Grandpa Sang was unable to ask for leave, so Grandma Sang had to take the guards to send Sheng Zexi and his family off.
Outside the train station, people were coming and going, it was very lively.
Xingxing and Yueyue looked around, as if expecting something, but they didn't see the person they were expecting.
Sheng Zexi frowned.
He naturally knew that Xingxing and Yueyue were waiting for the old man.
It seemed that he overestimated the old man's temperament.
I originally thought that he would come at least for Xingxing and Yueyue's sake, but I never thought...
So, after saying goodbye to Grandma Sang, the family left and got on the train.
Just then, a voice suddenly came from outside urgently.
"Stars, moon..."
Xingxing and Yueyue quickly turned around and saw Sheng Xinhao getting out of the car.
"Grandpa..." The two little guys ran over quickly, and Sheng Zexi also rushed over to protect them.
Seeing their grandfather Sheng Xinhao coming, Xingxing and Yueyue swept away their previous depressed expressions and looked at Sheng Xinhao with bright eyes.
Sheng Xinhao asked the guards to take a lot of things down from the car and gave them to Xingxing and Yueyue.
"This is a gift from grandpa."
"Also, this is for your mother..." Sheng Xinhao added at the end.
As he spoke, he glanced at Sheng Zexi out of the corner of his eye.
Seeing that Sheng Zexi didn't react at all, he breathed a sigh of relief.
After getting close to Xingxing and Yueyue and saying goodbye, Sheng Xinhao looked at Sheng Zexi, "Can we talk alone?"
Sheng Zexi frowned and looked at the old man in front of him. He wanted to refuse, but when his eyes met his graying temples, he held back.
"Let's talk."
Sheng Zexi got into Sheng Xinhao's car, and the father and son sat in the back seat. There were only the two of them in the car, and the guards were outside the car.
The closed car door blocked out the noisy sounds outside.
It was very quiet in the car.
Neither of them spoke. It was the first time in all these years that Sheng Zexi was alone with Sheng Xinhao and so close to him, and he was not used to it.
Just when Sheng Zexi was about to give up, the person next to him spoke.
"Axi, I'm sorry."
Sheng Zexi's body froze, and then he subconsciously clenched his fists tightly, pursed his lips, looked straight ahead, and said nothing.
"Over the years, I have been deceived by Fang Wanrong. I am old and confused. I shouldn't have distrusted you, and I shouldn't have been so strong and always wanted to force you."
"I'm also sorry for your mother. I claimed to have a deep affection for your mother, but I married someone else less than a year after your mother passed away."
"You are justified in blaming me."
"Before, I thought that everything I did was for your own good, until that day, I heard the stars say: Not everything that is for your own good is really good. Then I realized how wrong I had been all these years."
"So, Ah Xi, you have the right to blame me."
"Dad, I'm sorry."
Sheng Zexi's eyes were still looking straight ahead, but if you looked closely, you would find that his eye sockets were slightly red.
The clenched hands became tighter and tighter.
Sheng Zexi never expected that he would hear an apology from his father in this life.
He once thought that he might never hear it in his lifetime.
Because his father was such a proud and strong man.
Even if one day, he realizes that he has done something wrong.
He can still stick his neck out and refuse to admit his mistakes.
And now, suddenly, he heard it.
Sheng Zexi thought that after all these years, he no longer expected love from his father.
But now I find out...
turn out to be……
No matter how strong a child is, he is destined to fail the test of his parents.
Realizing this, Sheng Zexi despised himself.
He sneered and said, "Do you think all apologies can be forgiven?"
"You think that as long as you apologize, all the hurt will disappear."
"Can everything go back to the way it was before?"
Sheng Xinhao looked at his son who was still looking straight ahead and was unwilling to even look at him.
He finally realized how deeply he had hurt his son over the years.
Unable to hold back any longer, tears flowed from the eyes of this always strong man.
"You're right, not all apologies can be forgiven."
"I apologize, you can choose not to forgive me."
"Before, I thought I had used my life's experience and thoughts to choose a path that would be good for my children."
"But it turns out that times have changed, everyone is different, and the experience and ideas I thought I had are no longer applicable."
"Ah Xi, actually you have been very good all along."
"Except for being a little disobedient, you are actually very good."
"He became a regimental-level cadre at a young age, married an outstanding wife, and had two smart children."
Sheng Zexi snorted softly, "My choice is naturally good."
Sheng Zexi didn't expect that today he would not only hear an apology from his father, but also receive his praise.
He thought that in the heart of this stubborn old man, his abilities, his choices, and everything about him would not be recognized or praised by him.
"From now on, I won't interfere in your affairs anymore."
"Sheng family, you can come back if you want, or not if you don't want to."
"After all, it belongs to you in the end."
"It's your home too."
…
After Sheng Zexi got in the car, Gu Jianing took Xingxing and Yueyue to eat some egg cake.
After finishing eating the egg cake, I saw Sheng Zexi getting off the car alone.
Although Sheng Zexi seemed to be no different from usual, Gu Jianing could still see that his emotions seemed to be fluctuating greatly.
Gu Jianing walked over and held his hand.
"Are you okay?"
Looking at the worry in Gu Jianing's eyes, Sheng Zexi shook his head and said, "It's okay."
"That's good."
Sheng Xinhao did not get out of the car. After Sheng Zexi took his wife and children on the train, the car finally left the train station.
"Let's go to the cemetery where my wife is." Sheng Xinhao said in the car.
