C60 (1/2)
Tang Zhen sighed. How could she not understand Gu Yun's feelings, but love had never been something that a person could decide, and she did not wish for Gu Yun to continue to be so stubborn.
”Buzz …”
The phone suddenly vibrated with a sense of urgency. Tang Zhen looked at the unfamiliar phone number and frowned, but in the end, he still accepted the call.
”Hello?”
Tang Zhen asked.
”Little Zhe, it's me. I'm Dad.” A middle-aged man's voice came from the other side.
However, his words caused Tang Zhen to be extremely shocked. She clearly did not believe him, and there was no memory of her father.
She reconfirmed the number, and the area displayed was not the address of A City at all.
”Sorry, I've never had a father since I was young, I think you've called the wrong number.”
She had never seen her father in her life. Even after so many years, her mother had always disliked her. Most of the hatred she felt was due to her father's abandonment.
Therefore, not to mention that this person was not her father, even if it was, she wouldn't recognize him. It wasn't just because he abandoned her mother, but also because he didn't even have the basic sense of responsibility as a man.
”Little Zhe, don't hang up. I know it's my fault for all these years. I caused you and your mother to suffer for so many years. Can you give your father a chance?” The person begged Tang Zhen.
His voice sounded very old, and it was not hard to imagine that his life these years wasn't very pleasant. However, towards a father that she had never seen before, she felt sorry. She wouldn't have any sympathy for him.
”Why should I believe your words? And even if you really are my biological father, the first person you should look for is my mother, the woman who was abandoned by you and has no one to rely on, not me.”
Tang Zhen said indifferently and hung up the phone.
Too many unfathomable things had happened in the past few days, and now, a father had appeared out of nowhere.
However, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Why did this father who had disappeared for over twenty years suddenly appear? If that person was really his father, then how did she know his cell phone number?
Could it be …
Impossible, her mother hated that man to the bones. How could she give him her cell phone number? She immediately threw her ridiculous thoughts to the back of her mind.
However, thinking back to when her grandma had passed away and she still hadn't talked to Tang Zijun on the phone, she took out her phone and called again.
The phone continued to ring but no one answered. Just as Tang Zhen was about to hang up, an impatient voice came from the other side.
”Hello?” It was just a single word, but it gave off an extreme chilliness.
Tang Zhen suddenly felt wronged. In all these years, besides his maternal grandfather, this mother had never said a word about him caring for her. Now that he heard her cold voice, he suddenly triggered all of the pent-up grievances he had been feeling all these years.
The pain in her throat made it almost impossible for her to say anything. She held the phone tightly and buried her face in her lap.
She thought that if her grandmother died, she would become her mother's sole support. Perhaps her attitude towards her would improve, but …
