Liu Feng thought that what he felt was an illusion.
However…
When he saw that Liu Bei did not reprimand him today, but instead came up to him and put his hand on his shoulder to help him up…
He knew.
The heartache and guilt in his father's tone was real.
"Feng 'er, get up and talk!"
"Today, there's nothing between you and me, father and son.”
"There's nothing I can't say!"
Liu Bei said.
Not only did he personally help Liu Feng up, but he also gently pushed Liu Feng to the side of the bed in the room and patted Liu Feng's shoulder, indicating for him to sit down.
After that.
He sat beside Liu Feng.
The scene.
They didn't look like Marquis Liu and his son, but rather like a father and son pair who had nothing to do after a meal.
Liu Bei looked at Liu Feng.
But as he looked on…
He suddenly used his hand to gesture at Liu Feng's forehead and his heart. He said emotionally,"Feng 'er, I remember…"
"When I first met you and adopted you from the Kou Clan, you were only this tall, right?”
"I didn't expect this."
"In the blink of an eye."
"Not only have you grown taller than me, but you've also reached the age of marriage.”
"Time…"
"Time really flies!"
Hearing Liu Bei's words, Liu Feng did not respond.
He didn't know if he should respond or not, nor did he know what to say.
Silence.
Sometimes, it was also an appropriate response.
Liu Bei did not care about this.
He was like an old man who was immersed in reminiscence. He said to himself,"I treat you as my own son.”
"This has nothing to do with whether Ah Dou was born or not.”
"Maybe."
"In the eyes of others, after Ah Dou was born, your identity as the eldest son became awkward. They thought that I would not like you…"
"Yes, I'm sure even you think so.”
"So…"
"After Ah Dou was born, you chose to change.”
"He deliberately became arrogant and despotic.”
"It's to tarnish your own reputation so that others can find a reason to hate you and loathe you.”
"You didn't even tell me before you let me in the other category.”
"In this way, over time, you will no longer be a threat to Ah Dou. In the future, you will also be able to protect your life and safety, so that everyone will think that you are not worthy of inheriting my position.”
"That everyone, Feng 'er, you…should have taken the initiative to include me in it, right?”
As he spoke, Liu Bei looked at the beams on the roof with a look of disappointment and self-mockery on his face.
As a father, being able to 'force' his son to this point is truly a failure.”
"Perhaps, Feng 'er, you will say that I am a hypocrite and that everything I say is a lie.”
"You said that if father really valued you, he wouldn't have reprimanded you repeatedly after you did such arrogant and despotic things?”
"But…"
"Feng 'er, do you know…"
"Back then, when I scolded you, I was actually saving you.”
"If you don't care about the arrogant and despotic things you do, then when your father succeeds in the future, others will frame you as your adopted son and settle accounts with you.”
"When a father doesn't care about his son's actions, he actually doesn't have any expectations for his son.”
"And at that time, I scolded you because I always had expectations for you.”
" I hope that you won't fall into the wrong guesses that you think you have. I hope that you can turn back in time after hearing your father's scolding…"
"Even if I can't inherit my father's position in the future.”
"You should also learn to be a qualified elder brother and support your ignorant younger brother.”
"It's just that…"
Liu Bei hit Liu Feng's head with his hand.
"You brat, you just don't understand these things.”Liu Bei laughed and scolded.
"At that time, I was afraid that I would say something inappropriate and arouse your rebellious heart.”
"So, I was thinking…"
Liu Bei retracted his hands and placed them on his knees, sighing.
"Was I wrong then?"
"Is it because my expectations are too reserved? I should have talked to you in time, father and son, who are so open and honest like today.”
"Even."
"Father thought about it even more."
"In the future, when my foundation is successful, I might as well do what you want to do by ruining your own reputation and causing others to hate you. In the future, I will take the opportunity to let you leave the central area and transfer you to a place to guard so that I can save your life.”
"In case some people make an issue out of your identity as an adopted son and frame and persecute you.”
"That way."
"Even if you die for your elders in the future, you won't have to worry about your life and can live the rest of your life in peace.”
Liu Bei's true feelings shook Liu Feng's heart.
He did not expect this.
He had no idea that his father, Liu Bei, had actually thought so much for him.
Thinking back to the ridiculous things he had done to protect himself…
A sense of guilt filled Liu Feng's heart.
In the next moment.
Liu Feng stood up.
"Plop!"
Liu Feng knelt on the ground and pressed his head against the ground.
"I…I'm unfilial. I've let down my father's expectations!"!!”
"I was wrong!"
Liu Bei looked at the weeping Liu Feng and couldn't help but feel gratified.
After helping Liu Feng up and sitting down on the edge of the bed.
Liu Bei shook his head lightly.
"Feng 'er, you didn't do anything wrong.”
"I was wrong from the beginning to the end.”
"I shouldn't have adopted you and given you so much pressure.”
"Liu Feng's life was forced on you by your father!
"Perhaps!"
"Kou Feng is the comfortable life you should be living.”
"Feng 'er, after today."
"You…"
"Go back to the Kou surname."
"After you regain your surname, if you still want to stay with me, even if your surname is not Liu, I will still treat you as my eldest son.”
"When Ah Dou sees you in the future, he will still call you…Brother.”
"If you don't want to stay here, you can return to the Kou clan.”
"In the future, if you have free time or think of me…"
"I'll bring my wife and children to visit often."
Liu Bei opened his mouth and gave the result that Liu Feng had always wanted.
Hearing this, Liu Feng looked at his father, Liu Bei, who had sincerely spoken to him. He once again kowtowed heavily to the ground.
"Kou Feng!"
"Thank you, Father!"
Using Kou Feng's name, Liu Feng finally made his choice.
And the word 'father' in his mouth.
It also let Liu Bei know…
This was probably the last time the eldest son in front of him would call him that.
