I Will Always Love You

"If it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for Ning Shu at the end of the day, her mother wouldn't tell me what happened." Gu Ningshu's father continued to choke, "I was wrong back then. I didn't trust your mother enough. I didn’t even listen to a word of explanation...I...I...Chen Jing, can you forgive Dad?"

Gu Chengji lowered his head, his white and slender fingers tightly gripped the phone in his hand. Because of his force, his knuckles were even slightly whitened. He stared at the ground in silence for a long time, and finally lifted it. At the beginning, he smiled at Gu Ningshu's father, and said softly, "No."

"But Dad..."

"Want to know why?" Gu Chengji interrupted him and continued: "It has been twenty-four years since I was born. You never wanted to explore the truth of that incident. In fact, you only need a little Investigate it and you will be able to return your mother's innocence, but you never even thought about it... Your feelings for her are nothing more than that."

"When I was four years old, I went to kindergarten, and my classmates booed that I did not have a father, that I was an illegitimate child, and that my mother was a dirty woman. I beat up all those who scolded me, but it was after school. When I didn’t dare to go home because I was covered with scratches everywhere on my body, I was afraid she would be sad.”

"When I was eight years old, I was in elementary school, and every day I went home from school, I could hear my mother's depressed cry, but when she saw me, she always showed a bright smile. She said that life is already like this. Surviving is not easy, so we must face every day optimistically..."

"At the age of twelve, my mother passed away. Before she left, her biggest wish was to meet you and tell you that I am your biological son. She worried that after her death, I will be alone. To this malicious world..."

When Gu Chengji said these words, the expression on his face was very indifferent, as if he was just stating the text in the textbook. He looked at Gu Ningshu’s father and said in a low voice: "When I was very young, I always thought about it. I understand why you don’t want your mother to not want me. Later, when I grow up, I know, because you don’t care... In fact, you already knew that I was your biological son. Otherwise, you wouldn’t want to Pay my living expenses every month, but you never thought of recognizing me, did you?"

"It's not like that, it's not... Dad actually..." Gu Ningshu's father moved his mouth, subconsciously trying to refute his words, but found that he had no way to refute it.

"Go back." Gu Chengji looked at him quietly and said in a faint voice: "On the day my mother passed away, the father in my heart had already died. Thank you very much for all these years of payment every month. My living expenses keep me from starving to death on the street."

Gu Chengji smiled, and then continued: "After I worked, I have already sent all the living expenses you gave me back to your card and paid the corresponding interest. You and I have nothing to do with each other. Owe, no longer have anything to do with it."

"Chengji..." Gu Ningshu's father looked at Gu Chengji in front of him. He didn't know why, and suddenly remembered that day at Jinglan's funeral, his small body turned his back to him, his shoulders shaking violently. , At that time, he was crying...

If at that time, he came forward to recognize him, would it be a different situation now?
