Wan Ge cupped his cheeks in her fingers, her beautiful eyes gazing at him. She showed no annoyance or dislike towards him, but rather spoke to him earnestly, "Chenchen, I've never been anything other than you. No matter what I am, I'm still you, you know?"
Gu Sichen was particularly confused; did she even understand what he meant?
The next second he heard her say, "Good or bad, it's all about yourself, whether you're gentle or indifferent. No one is absolutely perfect. All we can do is accept ourselves. Only by accepting ourselves can we be the best version of ourselves. Besides..."
Wan Ge said very seriously, "You're no different from anyone else. You're just sick. The only thing that makes you different from others is that there's only one you in this world. No one can replace you, no one can take your place in the hearts of those who love you."
Gu Sichen seemed to understand somewhat, looking at the person in front of him: "Aren't you scared? I'm so strange..."
Gu Sichen saw some comments as soon as he browsed the page. Some people said that if he really had a split personality, he must be a psychopath in private. Some even commented that he was terrifying.
Wan Ge softened her tone even more: "What's so strange about it? Would you find it strange to have a fever or a cold?"
Gu Sichen shook his head again, and Wan Ge replied, "You're just sick, no different from someone with a fever or a cold. You'll get better with treatment. You shouldn't be afraid. You should believe that the people who love you will only worry, not be afraid, when they know you're sick."
Wan Ge hugged the person tightly, as if trying to tell them that she had never been afraid and would never be afraid, because she herself would never be afraid of him.
Moreover, even if it weren't him, Wan Ge wouldn't be afraid, because the other person was just sick.
…
Just then, there was a knock on the door, which sounded rather urgent.
Wan Ge gently released him, but Gu Sichen subconsciously tightened his grip on her hand, clearly still deeply worried.
Wan Ge patted the back of his hand to reassure him, then opened the door. Mr. Gu stood there anxiously, and immediately grabbed Gu Sichen's hand when he saw them open the door.
Gu Sichen instinctively pulled his hand back, lowered his head, and softly called out, "Dad..."
Seeing his son's reaction, Mr. Gu thought back to his son's past... He had always thought his son was just a personality issue and hadn't given it much thought.
He had no doubt about the authenticity of the leaked information, because he knew better than anyone that the possibility of it being true was extremely high.
He had suffered from the disease when he was young, as had his father. His father's condition was more severe and it took him a long time to recover. Later, fearing that his young son would also be affected, he received treatment when he was still young and never had a relapse.
He thought that was the end of it. When he was little, the only reason for finding him a stepmother was because he was worried that he would feel inferior and lack something. He never thought about this issue.
But based on his reaction just now, and the information that was revealed, Mr. Gu was basically certain. Moreover… he strongly suspected that Gu Sichen had been pregnant since he was very young.
Gu Sichen gripped Wan Ge's hand even tighter, seemingly genuinely frightened, but the next second Mr. Gu suddenly embraced him.
