Ji Chengzhi felt another sharp pang in his heart, almost unable to control the impulse to hold her in his arms.
He wasn’t soone prone to emotional excesses, but now he found that many thoughts and impulses were simply beyond his control, as if his mind was no longer his own.
Lowering his head, he looked at the small face, calming himself for a while, and finally nodded gently: "Yes, I’m here to tell you the good news."
"Really? That’s wonderful. Uncle, you don’t know, I’ve been wanting to visit Mr. Han in the hospital, but my mom and dad won’t let . I’m so upset I don’t want to study anymore."
"No, here you must rember to study well. Rest assured, Uncle will definitely bring Mr. Han back to health."
"Really?"
"Of course it’s true!"
"Uncle, you’re so nice!"
Standing in the sunlight, the little girl finally smiled, her eyes curved like crescents, truly beautiful.
Ji Chengzhi saw this and couldn’t control himself any longer. As he lowered his head, two hot tears instantly fell from his eyes...
Just at that mont, the class bell rang again, and Ou Mucen saw this and brought the principal over: "Alright, it’s class ti, let the child go inside."
Only then did Ji Chengzhi turn his head and look elsewhere.
He was about to take the child inside, but suddenly, the child took a step forward towards Ji Chengzhi: "Uncle, this is sothing I’ve been wearing since I was little. My mom said it’s my Amulet, and I want you to give it to Mr. Han, hoping it can protect her."
She took off sothing she was wearing around her neck and handed it to Ji Chengzhi across from her.
Ji Chengzhi hesitated for a mont and looked down, seeing sothing wrapped in a triangular red cloth in her childish palms. He didn’t know what it was and hesitated: "This..."
"Take it, it’s the child’s gesture of sincerity!" Ou Mucen chid in.
Upon hearing this, Ji Chengzhi took the item and watched the principal guide the child inside.
Once inside, the surroundings finally quieted down, and with no one around, seeing this, the man could no longer contain himself. Clutching the item, he quickly got into the car, locking the doors around him.
Ou Mucen saw this scene, knowing that he had suppressed his emotions for so long and was about to crumble under the weight, so he didn’t disturb him, instead lighting a cigarette outside and waiting.
After about twenty minutes, finally, the sound of a car door lock being opened was heard, and seeing this, he turned around and got into the car.
"Thank you..."
Sitting down just after entering, he heard these words.
Ou Mucen shrugged indifferently...
Brother, why say thank you?
However, after starting the car, he proactively asked him about his plans: "What’s your plan now? Are you going to acknowledge her?"
The man with reddened eyes from crying nodded from the back: "Of course, she’s my daughter, I definitely want to acknowledge her, but not now."
"When then?"
"When she wakes up!"
Ou Mucen: "..."
Is he crazy? At a ti like this, he’s still saying such things?
Ou Mucen furrowed his brows, about to turn back and have a proper conversation with him, but just as he slowed the car, the man in the back, lost in thought holding sothing in his palm, spoke up...
