C10 (1/2)
Hospital, ward.
He had been watching cartoons for a long time, but he wasn't sleepy at all. He was sitting on the bed with the bear in his arms, not moving at all.
The nurse closed the door of the ward and walked to the man standing in the hall.
The nurse explained the situation. From yesterday until now, she had been keeping watch over the child 24 hours a day.
”This kid doesn't like to talk to people. After he wakes up, he's been watching cartoons, so it's not noisy.”
She seemed very obedient, but wouldn't it be too quiet?
”You can go back first.”
”Alright.”
After the nurse left, Shang Xuewu cast a glance at the man who remained silent. He was already outside the ward, and was prepared to stand there?
”Let's go in and take a look …” Your daughter? ”
However, the response he got was still silence, just like how it was before.
”Gu Yanze, are you afraid?”
Shang Xuewu felt that he had grasped the crux of the problem, and laughed mockingly, seeing the cold and profound look in the man's eyes, the more it was like this, the more it proved that his guess was right.
Gu Yanze was afraid.
Afraid of a four year old girl, his daughter, the daughter he had never met before, yet she was so close to him.
”I know what you're thinking, but the past is over.”
”But it did exist.”
She had forgotten the past, but that didn't mean she could erase the truth.
The door of the ward wasn't closed. From between the crack of the door, the girl on the bed could be clearly seen. Her eyes didn't even blink as she quietly stared at the cartoon.
Those eyes, which should have been bright, were dull and lonely.
His daughter, he and her daughter.
Gu Yanze was a bastard, an absolute bastard.
Five years ago, he only believed that he had seen the so-called ”betrayal” with his own eyes, and that he had convicted his girl.
Even in his entire life, he was just an ordinary person. His eyes had once been shrouded in mist.
He still remembered that day, when Xiyan stood in front of him at the hospital. Her eyes were red, as she held back her tears, and her fingers had deeply sunk into her palms as she asked him:
”Will you no longer believe me? Gu Yanze, I will not recognize what I have never done! ”
Before the accident, his feelings for her had been shattered.
He was becoming the stranger she knew best.
At that time, he was like a cold-blooded Satan. The smile on his face contained three parts as he forced her step by step into the abyss of evil.
”Confessing is your last resort.”
