"Ayan, Niao Niao wants to see Suisui." On the other end of the phone, Gu Zhuoyuan's voice was filled with earnestness and anticipation.
Jiang Yan listened quietly and did not respond immediately.
"Ayan, we have agreed with Niao Niao. Don't worry, we won't hurt Sui Sui." Gu Zhuoyuan seemed to have noticed Jiang Yan's hesitation and hurriedly added with a hint of firmness in his tone.
"Okay." Jiang Yan finally uttered a word, his voice low and concise.
Jiang Yan hung up the phone and looked at his daughter leaning on his arm, her legs swinging happily like two lively little pendulums.
Jiang Suisui's eyes were shining brightly as she looked intently at the flowers blooming in the flowerbed in front of her, humming a tuneless little tune from time to time.
Jiang Yan: "Your mother wants to see you, do you want to go?"
Sui Sui's little head suddenly raised up, and her lavender eyes, which were exactly the same as Jiang Yan's, looked at Jiang Yan.
She seemed to be thinking seriously about her father's question, her cheeks puffed up slightly, and she looked very cute.
Jiang Yan: "Well, it's okay if you don't want to go, Dad will take you home?"
Jiang Suisui: "Dad, we have to go. If I don't go, she will keep wandering around here."
***
In the ward filled with the smell of disinfectant, the air seemed to tremble slightly because of the upcoming reunion.
Jiang Yan walked in with steady steps, holding Jiang Suisui in his arms.
Gu Niaoniao watched the father and daughter for the whole night and now she didn't feel strange about them. Instead, her eyes were full of curiosity.
Gu Niaoniao's gaze was firmly fixed on Jiang Suisui, and there was affection in her eyes.
This is her daughter. She is growing up well while I am away. That’s great!
It had appeared in her mind countless times, but now it was standing before her eyes, and her heart felt like a deer was beating fast.
Various complex emotions intertwined together, making her excited and nervous.
Thousands of words are swirling in my throat, but I just don’t know where to start. What should I say to my daughter as an opening statement?
She racked her brains but still had no clue.
Just as Gu Niaoniao fell into deep thought, Fang Shuyun walked up gently, took her slightly trembling hand, and slowly led her towards Jiang Suisui.
Fang Shuyun's eyes were full of tenderness and encouragement, as if telling Gu Niaoniao, be brave, my daughter, this is your child.
Yes, no one taught us to be mothers, but we seem to be born to be mothers!
"Sui Sui, this is Mom." Fang Shuyun's voice was soft and warm, like a spring breeze, gently blowing through everyone's heart.
Gu Niaoniao nodded vigorously and quickly, her voice trembling slightly with excitement: "Yes, Suisui, my daughter, I am your mother."
Her eyes carefully traced Jiang Suisui's face, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, blooming into a bright smile.
"I'm sorry, my daughter, I didn't take good care of you."
At this time, Jiang Yan put Jiang Suisui down, and Gu Niaoniao was led to Jiang Suisui by Fang Shuyun.
Gu Niaoniao slowly squatted down, her movements so gentle as if she was afraid of disturbing the little angel in front of her.
She looked at Jiang Suisui with eyes full of doting, and her tone was filled with endless pride and pride: "My daughter is so beautiful, even more beautiful than her mother!"
Gu Zhuoyuan touched his forehead and looked at Fang Shuyun.
The look in their eyes was: [Niao Niao has always been so... well, mysteriously confident? ]
Gu Yanhe took a step forward, stood between the two of them, looked around, and nodded decisively.
......
Gu Niaoniao looked at Jiang Suisui in front of her, her eyes full of anticipation.
Her voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, and she asked cautiously, "Can I touch your face?"
That tone concealed a mother's long-pent-up attachment to her daughter, fearing that if she exerted even a little force, this hard-earned warmth would shatter like bubbles.
Jiang Suisui raised his head and looked at Gu Niaoniao in front of him quietly with clear eyes.
The woman in front of him was still as pale as paper, and her slender body looked even thinner in the loose hospital gown, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
But the look in her eyes when she looked at him was so gentle that water could drip out of it, and the full love in her eyes made Jiang Suisui feel an inexplicable intimacy in his heart.
She is obviously a proud young lady, but at this moment she is unspeakably gentle.
She nodded slowly, her movements were slow but firm.
After receiving her daughter's consent, Gu Niaoniao's eyes became warm and her voice trembled slightly as she slowly said, "My daughter, you must remember that Mommy loves you very much and Mommy is looking forward to your birth."
Jiang Suisui looked at Gu Niaoniao's deer-like eyes which gradually turned red. He wondered if he couldn't bear to see such a beautiful woman cry?
Or was it because of the face in front of him that was so similar to his own that an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
She couldn't help but stretch out her hands and gently hugged Gu Niaoniao.
Gu Niaoniao was stunned for a moment, her body trembling slightly, as if she had not yet reacted.
After a brief moment of daze, she quickly came to her senses and hugged her daughter tightly in her arms, as if she wanted to make up for the lack of companionship over the years.
She whispered softly, "What's wrong, my baby?" Her voice was full of concern and heartache.
Jiang Suisui buried her face in Gu Niao Niao's neck, and her voice came softly: "Mom, thank you."
These three simple words seemed to contain thousands of words. It was the daughter's belated intimacy with her mother, and it also resolved the last obsession in Gu Niaoniao's heart.
Jiang Suisui suddenly felt that Gu Niaoniao's figure was slowly becoming illusory, like smoke blown away by the wind.
She was startled and wanted to hold Gu Niaoniao tightly, but found that her hand gradually passed through Gu Niaoniao's body.
Gu Niaoniao knew that her wish had been fulfilled, and it seemed that she was about to leave!
She slowly raised her head, her eyes sweeping over everyone present. Her voice was soft but incredibly clear: "Dad, Mom, Brother, Xiaoshi, and my baby Suisui. My wish is fulfilled, and I should leave now."
After she finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Gu Yanhe, her eyes full of guilt and instructions: "Second brother, please apologize to Grandpa, Big Brother, and Sister-in-law for me. I'll trouble you to take care of Mom and Dad from now on!"
Finally, Gu Niaoniao trembled as she took Jiang Suisui's hand and gently placed it on Jiang Yan's palm. She said solemnly, "Jiang Yan, thank you and I'm sorry. It's all because of my ignorance. From now on, our daughter is in your care!"
As the words fell, Gu Niaoniao's figure gradually disappeared into the air.
