Qinghan had a new job recently, which was to deliver food to the hospital. When the doctor told her that her father did not have much time left, her heart was filled with sadness. However, she did not want to continue being sad like this. She wanted to let her father live happily every day before he left. Even if they parted ways, she had to leave with a smile.
"Dad, Auntie Chen, I'm here." Qinghan opened the door with a smile, holding the chicken soup she had just made. Recently, her father had been waking up more and more often. This kind of symptom was both happy and heartbroken for them.
"Xiao Luo, you're here. Come and sit down.”Qinghan's father had been in high spirits since the morning, and he was in a better mood when he saw Qinghan.
"Xiao Luo, it's been hard on you recently.”Auntie Chen said with a smile. There was love in her eyes.
"How can that be? I don't have anything to do during the holidays. You're the one who's working hard. You can't even rest well after taking care of my dad all day.”Qinghan said gratefully. Auntie Chen was staying in the hospital every day so that the doctor could come to Qinghan's father as soon as he was in trouble.
"Our Xiao Luo is so sensible. I'm relieved.”Qinghan's father looked at him with relief. The person he couldn't let go of the most in his life was Qinghan. He knew that he owed her, but God didn't give him time to make up for it.
"I am an adult." Qinghan said proudly, but her heart ached when she heard her father's words.
The three of them ate breakfast in a happy atmosphere. This rare happiness was hard to disturb.
"Xinxin, can you give your mother a call? I have something to say to her." Qinghan's father looked at him pleadingly. He still liked to call Qinghan " Xinxin," as if she was always in his heart.
"Yes." Qinghan didn't have the heart to refuse, so he could only agree. Then, he dialed the familiar number. After a short pause, Qinghan's mother finally picked up the phone. "Dear Xiao Luo, what's the matter?" Her mother's voice still sounded so blissful, and she couldn't help but feel happy for her.
"Mom, Dad wants to talk to you." Qinghan said to his mother,
After a short silence, Qinghan's mother said,""Alright then." Then, he sighed. Some things still had to be faced. No matter if it was right or wrong, they could not be avoided.
When Qinghan's father took the phone with trembling hands, his eyes reddened. He had not seen him for so many years, but he had to apologize in a hurry at the moment of life and death. Perhaps it was God's punishment for him. "May, I'm Sherlie." His voice was a little hoarse.
"Yes." The other party only replied indifferently, but his heart ached. Who would be indifferent to the person they once loved? Even if they were hurt, that feeling would not change after so many years.
"May, are you doing well? Are you happy?”Sherlie's voice trembled with excitement.
"I'm very good and very happy. You have to treat Chenchen well too.”Qinghan's mother couldn't help but cry. She had heard about Sherlie's current situation from Qinghan. Although he had been betrayed, she still hoped that he would live well and not be so down and out.
"Yes, May, I've been wanting to apologize to you for so many years. " I'm not asking for your forgiveness, but I haven't had a good day in my heart. I'm sorry." Qinghan's father also cried. He hoped that before he left, he could untie all the knots in his heart so that he could rest assured and leave quietly.
Auntie Chen took Xiao Luo's hand and walked away, leaving only Old Xia on the phone. There were some words that should not be heard, and some emotions that should not be felt by others. Just like that, Auntie Chen pulled Xiao Luo along and wordlessly arrived at the rockery where they had first met. This place was filled with sorrow and joy, but at this moment, it was quiet and lonely.
Xiao Luo looked at Auntie Chen's tears, which fell drop by drop. He was a little sad and couldn't bear it. Xiao Luo didn't say anything. He just held Auntie Chen's hand tightly, hoping to give her strength. They had been sitting together, feeling the silence around them, but also feeling their own sadness.
"Xinxin, there you are." Qinghan's father walked toward them with a smile, but his eyes were still red and swollen.
"Yeah, you've been looking for it for a long time. I forgot to tell you.”Xiao Luo also replied with a smile. She didn't want her father to feel sad when he saw her. At the same time, she shook Auntie Chen's hand, indicating that she had to smile too.
"Chen Chen, let's take Xiao Luo for a walk. I'm bored here.”Sherlie looked at Auntie Chen with a smile on his face. At the same time, his eyes were filled with hope.
"Alright, whatever you say." Auntie Chen also replied with a smile. She had said that she would give strength to the person she loved, and she would definitely do it. Xiao Luo stepped forward and took his father's hand, then placed Auntie Chen's hand in his palm. Perhaps Xiao Luo used to hate Auntie Chen because she destroyed her family, but when they parted ways, everything was not that important anymore.
When they passed by the photography shop in the car, Qinghan suddenly had a new idea. "Uncle Driver, please stop the car." Qinghan's voice startled them.
"Xiao Luo, what's wrong?" Auntie Chen and Xiao Luo's father, who were sitting in the back row, said in unison.
"It's nothing. Let's get out of the car.”After Xiao Luo paid the fare, he got out of the car and dragged Auntie Chen and his father out.
Qinghan pushed open the door and walked in first.
"Hello, what do you need?”The waiter asked with a smile.
"We want to take a wedding photo and then a family photo.”Qinghan happily stated his request.
"Xiao Luo, how could you not discuss this with me? Let's go.”Auntie Chen blushed and pulled Xiao Luo away.
"Chen Chen, since you're all here, just listen to Xiao Luo. I've been making you suffer in this life. I didn't even give you a status, but you never left me. After Xiao Luo's reminder, I thought of taking a wedding photo too. After I leave, you will have something to look at me. It will be the best memory.”Xiao Luo's father sounded a little sad. He had never been able to give her a good life, but she had never left him, even in the most difficult times.
"Old Xia, what are you talking about? We still have many years to be together.”Aunt Chen looked at Xiao Luo's father with a reproachful gaze. She didn't want to see him lose his confidence the most. If he did, she would become weak.
After listening to their conversation, Qinghan suddenly thought of Liu Chuanfeng. They also longed to hold each other's hands and grow old together. Love gave everyone a common wish and gave us the same dream.
When Xiao Luo saw Auntie Chen in her wedding dress, he was extremely shocked." I didn't expect Auntie Chen to be so beautiful."”When she saw her father walk out again, she was equally shocked." I finally know why Auntie Chen likes Daddy. He's really handsome."”Qinghan watched them snuggle together happily. Her mother now had someone who loved her very much, and her father also had his own happiness. Although she had lost her original family, her heart was filled with happiness because of the happiness of the person she loved. He didn't want them to be together forever, as long as they were happy.
"Come on, you guys stay closer together and smile. Very good. One, two, three.”The flash instantly froze the scene, turning it into a warm memory many years later.
When the three of them walked out of the studio hand in hand, their faces were filled with happy smiles, as if they were a family. Father, mother, and child. In fact, there were some things that didn't need to be so serious. As long as everyone was happy, it was fine. The decision was actually that simple. Why make it difficult for everyone?
When they returned to the hospital, the sky had already darkened. Qinghan's father was asleep on the hospital bed. There was still a smile on his lips. He should be happy in his heart. However, he did not wake up again. No matter how Auntie Chen called out to him, he did not respond at all. Just like that, he left with nostalgia for this world and deep love, leaving behind only the people who missed him.
On the day of the burial, there were thick dark clouds in the sky. Xiao Luo and Auntie Chen stood quietly in front of the tombstone. They only looked at the familiar face, at the person they both loved, and that person was sleeping quietly at the moment.
"Dad, you're really irresponsible. You left us behind like this. What should we do if we miss you in the future? You're really selfish. You went to a beautiful place, but you left us to miss you.”Qinghan said softly. The rain began to fall slowly, and tears flowed down his face, washing away the pain in his heart.
"Old Xia, you don't have to worry about us. I'll live a good life. Don't blame yourself. Who asked me to love you? I will help take care of Xiao Luo. She has grown up and needs me less now. You shouldn't have any regrets if you can see her. She still loves you so much. You'll be happy over there, right?”Auntie Chen tried to make herself sound relaxed, but her eyes were wet again and again. The rain was also pattering, as if she was sad with them.
"Dad, I forgot to tell you that I've already forgiven you. I've already let go of a lot, so don't worry about me. "I remember you taught me a song when I was young. Let me sing it to you. The dark sky is low, and the bright stars are following. Bugs fly, bugs fly, who are you missing?" The ethereal voice passed through every corner of the cemetery. The clean voice was mixed with sadness. The living beings shed tears because of this, and the hearts of the people were broken.
Qinghan returned to the empty room. She had never missed Liu Chuanfeng so much. When people were at their weakest, they always hoped to have a shoulder to lean on. This way, a person's pain would be alleviated. "Kaede, Daddy left me today. I suddenly felt that a corner of the world had collapsed. I really wanted to keep his footsteps, but I still couldn't win against the heavens. I really wanted to cry to my heart's content, but there were no more tears. The astringent feeling made my heart ache. I missed you so much, but I was forced to part with you. I no longer resented you, because that was torturing myself and making myself crazy. I took good care of myself every day, took care of Dad and Auntie Chen, studied hard, and tried my best to be a good child, but God didn't pity me and still took Dad away. Feng, let's reunite quickly. Even if we have to face hardships, I won't be afraid with you by my side. I don't want to suffer alone.”Qinghan sat on the cold windowsill. The lights in the distance reflected her loneliness. It was destined to rain all night.
Behind you, when love ends, we must learn to be strong and fly bravely.
