"Gu Hui, wait, I, I can't run anymore."
The biting cold wind made people's cheeks red. Xihe squatted on the ground panting. She really couldn't run anymore.
Gu Hui stopped, snowflakes fell on his shoulders, the wind and snow blew all over his head, face and body. He clenched and unclenched his fists, and his chest rose and fell rapidly, showing that he was very excited.
Xihe took a deep breath, stood up, walked over to him and took his hand: "Let's go home."
The girl's warm little hand covered the boy's cold hand, and she said softly, "Auntie made your favorite pork and cabbage dumplings tonight. Let's go back early and eat them while they're hot, okay?"
On a cold winter night, pedestrians hurried on the streets and vehicles sped past, stirring up gusts of snow.
The young man's back was stubborn and stiff, and Xihe felt distressed instantly: "Gu Hui, it's okay, you still have your grandfather and Xiang Yuan and others, and there will be many people who care about you in the future. What does President Gu mean to you?"
Who hasn't encountered a few scumbags in their life? But life still has to go on.
You can't let your life be ruined by those scumbags.
Xi He pressed her face against the boy's back, feeling a little cold. "Gu Hui, it's really okay." Shivering, she squeezed into the boy's arms, "Gu Hui, I'm cold."
The boy's stiff body finally reacted. He lowered his head and looked at the girl's pale face.
He reached out and held her in his arms: "I'm sorry."
Xihe shook his head: "Let's go home, okay?"
Gu Hui didn't say anything. He raised his hand to hail a car, put the person in, and got in himself.
The car sped away from the spot, and Xihe leaned forward into his arms. Gu Hui paused and held her tightly. He looked out the window at the falling snow, but what came to his mind was the face of the woman before she died.
Her stunning beauty couldn't be concealed even by her paleness and sickly appearance.
She laughed wantonly: "Little guy, do you hate me very much?"
He was only seven years old at the time, but he understood that the woman had a terminal illness and would not survive.
The woman who gave birth to him and then abandoned him is about to die. From now on, he will be a motherless child.
Big tears fell from his eyes and hit the ground, but the boy pursed his lips tightly and said nothing stubbornly. The woman, however, seemed to find it amusing. She raised her hand to scrape it and put it in her mouth to taste it. She said in disgust: "It's bitter."
He wanted to say, nonsense, tears are obviously salty.
But his heart felt so uncomfortable, sore and swollen, and he had to use great willpower to stop himself from crying out loud.
The woman leaned lazily on the hospital bed. She didn't want chemotherapy. Her black hair was like a waterfall and her facial features were delicate and beautiful. She half-closed her eyes and looked at the child in front of her who was crying silently. This was his child.
She carried the baby for ten months and risked giving birth to the baby becoming ugly.
As she expected, she inherited his good genes and they were very similar in both personality and appearance.
She smiled, feeling proud and cheerful: "I really didn't choose the wrong person."
Gu Hui didn't understand what she was saying. He started to question her, "Why don't you come back to see Grandpa? Do you know how hard Grandpa has worked? You..." He suppressed his tears and said, "Take medicine, get the surgery, and when you get better, be filial to Grandpa. Maybe then I won't hate you anymore."
The child's wide-open eyes concealed a fear that he himself was not aware of.
"What a duplicitous little fellow."
The woman smiled lazily, but the next second she couldn't help coughing, as if she was going to cough out her lungs.
The child panicked instantly: "You, how are you? I'll go call a doctor!"
"Don't go!"
The woman's voice was stern.
The child stood there anxiously.
The woman wiped the blood off her lips and threw it into the trash can. She took a breath, leaned against the headboard, and waved, "Come here." The child hesitated, and the woman was not in a hurry. After a while, the child slowly approached -
Suddenly I fell into a cold embrace.
The child was stunned. This was the first time he was hugged by his mother.
The woman hugged the child tightly, tears falling silently, but with a smile on her face: "You are his son, he is the big bastard, and you are the little bastard."
"Little bastard, I'm leaving my dad in your care. You have to take good care of him, okay? You're my son, and the filial piety I can't fulfill is up to you. It's called a son paying a mother's debt."
"If I find out you dare to abandon my dad, I'll... Never mind. I'm lazy. Do whatever you want."
"This is your child support. If you save it, it'll be enough for you until you reach adulthood. Well, buying a house shouldn't be a problem. Of course, that assumes you're not planning on marrying a rich girl. We can't afford to support a rich girl."
"besides……"
Her voice gradually lowered: "This is your father's address. If one day you really can't bear it, go find him."
The child suddenly raised his head, and a slight gleam appeared in his eyes, but it was destroyed by the woman in less than a second.
She placed her fingertips against the child's forehead and sneered, "Don't even think about it. He hates me to death. If you really dare to go, he'll definitely ridicule you. If he's even more ruthless, he might even send you to Africa to dig coal. Besides... he's already married with children."
He was too young at the time to hear the disappointment in his words: "With his personality, now that he's married and has children, he has no intention of turning back."
"So, little bastard, unless it's absolutely necessary, you'd better rely on yourself."
"Well, of course. If one day you have to go, please tell him a message for me, saying I regret it."
The child subconsciously raised his head, and was held in the woman's arms. She laughed so hard that she couldn't breathe. "Bullshit! I don't regret it! I won't regret it even if I'm beaten to death! Ahem, I can't take it anymore. You little bastard, why are you so heavy? Get out of the way. You're crushing me."
