”Mother? Father? ”
Su Zhi pulled him into her arms tightly, yet she was still unable to say anything.
A Jin seemed to have expected something as he struggled to push her away.
”Mother, say something, where is my father? He said he would make me a paper kite, and when the East rose, he would go to the courtyard to fly it. He said he was going to teach me how to hunt, and I was waiting for him to make me a bow. Mother, please speak. ”
”Jin...” Your father went to the front and will be back in a few days. ”
Since she really couldn't bear to make him sad, Su Zhi could only casually make up an unfounded lie.
”You lied to me, brother soldier said that the war is already over!”
”Jin...” ”I …”
A Jin pushed his mother away, trying to calm her down. This was the first time the normally well-behaved child cried in front of Su Zhi. His eyes were red and swollen as he asked her, ”Daddy died in battle, right? ”My father is gone …”
”A Jin, you heard from mom that your dad just went somewhere far away and will come back. He still needs to take care of you and your sister, so he won't leave you behind. ”
”Liar!” You lied to me! I want father! ”
”Jin!”
Nie Rufeng had died in battle. The ones who were the most unwilling to believe this were either Su Zhi or A Jin.
His father's glory was deeply engraved in his memory, how could he be willing to lose that magnificent figure.
The argument between the two was too loud, waking up the small bean bun. A Jin couldn't take the impact anymore and turned around to run outside.
Su Zhi wanted to chase after her, but her daughter's wailing stopped her.
By the time she picked up her beanbag and chased after him, where was the child outside the tent?
Su Zhi panicked a little. She was worried that A Jin wouldn't be able to bear the shock and do something stupid, and that her child wouldn't be able to bear it. If there was such a thing, what would she do?
