There is a community located in the center of the county, a little to the west.
The gate of the community.
Chen Mo, wearing a peaked cap, appeared here.
Under the peaked cap that covered his sharp eyes, his scarred face had a complicated expression.
The last time I came here, I don’t know how many years ago it was.
Ever since he stepped into the darkness, he has been deliberately avoiding this place, so as not to bring harm to his family. Once the family living here is targeted by those crazy criminals, nothing good will happen.
So he has never been back home in these years.
After participating in the undercover mission, he divorced his wife due to the danger.
The daughter naturally lives with her wife.
Although stable funds are sent to the two of them every month in a relatively obscure way, the lack of companionship for them is Chen Mo's biggest regret.
Before leaving this world, he wanted to see her again.
Take a look at your daughter, take a look at your family.
This home made him dream about it and he couldn't wait to come back immediately.
The images of the past passed through his eyes, and Chen Mo walked in anyway.
Unit 3, Building 2,
The west door on the fifth floor.
Boom, boom, boom!
There was no room for a doorbell on the security door, so he could only knock on the door a few times.
The hollow knocking sound spread throughout the corridor.
soon,
The sound of slippers walking on the floor came from the room, getting closer and closer.
Behind the cat's eye, there seems to be a small eye.
"Who!?"
"Chen Mo!"
When Chen Mo heard this voice, his whole body seemed to tremble.
It's my daughter's voice.
Through the security door, my daughter was stunned and a little confused:
"Chen Mo? Who is Chen Mo?"
Immediately afterwards,
He quickly called to his mother:
"Mom, the uncle knocking on the door is called Chen Mo, do you know him?"
"what is it call?"
A gentle voice came from deeper in the room.
It's the wife.
After all these years, her gentle voice is still unforgettable.
Chen Mo's eyes trembled a little, and he tightened the handbag in his hand. Inside was the gift he was going to give them.
Don't come empty-handed.
Perhaps hearing the long-lost name, my wife came over with hesitation.
Click!
The door is open!!
She raised her eyes and focused on the figure outside the door.
His pupils contracted for a moment, and then he stood blankly on the spot.
A familiar figure stood in front of her. Even though he was wearing a peaked cap and even though his once intact face was already covered with scars, she still recognized it.
It was Chen Mo, the lover who abandoned himself and his children.
"Mother?"
The daughter, who looked somewhat similar to Chen Mo, glanced at her dazed mother with some confusion.
He tugged at the corner of her clothes.
This interrupted her from her stunned state.
She reached out and brushed the white hair on her temples, with moisture hidden in her eyes, and then she said to Chen Mo:
"Long time no see, come in when you're here!"
The tone is soft.
With inexplicably complicated emotions.
The teenage daughter Chen Xiaoqing, already tall and graceful, did not recognize her father, but still followed her mother's words:
"Uncle, please come in!"
"good!"
Chen Mo's voice suddenly became hoarse and trembling.
He looked deeply at his daughter before carrying his things and walking in.
The layout inside has completely changed compared to more than ten years ago.
The photos hanging on the wall are all of the daughter and her wife.
Photos of my daughter from childhood to adulthood are hung on the wall.
I was absent from my daughter's teenage growth.
I sat in the living room feeling a little guilty and took the water from my daughter.
Chen Xiaoqing glanced at her mother sitting aside with a complicated look on her face and asked:
"Mom, why haven't I seen this uncle before?"
"He's your dad!"
Mom sat aside and said with slightly red eyes.
The words were like thunder, making Chen Xiaoqing's entire face stiffen.
dad?
He quickly glanced at Chen Mo, whose face was covered with scars, and it was hard to tell what he looked like.
The vaguely visible facial features do bear some resemblance to mine.
However, this man who has disappeared for more than ten years.
Why did you choose to show up now?
Chen Xiaoqing's eyes turned red, filled with resentment:
"What are you doing at my house!?"
There was no longer any politeness in his words.
Some are just indifferent.
The cold tone made Chen Mo slightly stunned, and he was not prepared to explain anything.
Too many things have happened in the past ten years, and many things cannot be explained even if I want to.
aside.
His wife Song Qing stopped her daughter and scolded her:
"Xiao Qing!"
"Don't talk to your dad like that."
"He is not my father! He has not been since he left you and me. Whether it is legally or morally speaking, I no longer have a father! Fortunately, he still has a face. Over the years, he has
Everything he does is disgusting! I hate him!!"
Chen Xiaoqing's tears fell directly, she glared at Chen Mo and said fiercely.
Subsequently,
The emotions are even more intense:
"Leave! You are not welcome in our home! Please leave my home immediately!"
"Xiao Qing!"
Chen Mo's voice was hoarse and there were tears in his eyes.
The debt over the years seemed to be stuck in his throat, unable to allow him to continue speaking.
She heard her father call her name.
Not only did Chen Xiaoqing not feel any warmth, but she was even more repulsed. She took two steps forward and pulled Chen Mo away, shouting loudly:
"you go!"
"You are not welcome in my home! Leave!"
"Xiao Qing!"
Song Qing had tears in her eyes, scolding her from the side, and was about to get up.
But a stabbing sound was heard.
The bandage is broken!
The bandage on the wound was torn apart, and red blood slowly seeped out along Chen Mo's abdomen, and blood was visible to the naked eye!
Chen Xiaoqing, who was pulling him, looked stunned and could not help but frown:
"You...you're hurt?"
"Stop pulling him, Chen Mo, lie down!"
Song Qing hurriedly stepped forward, checked the wound, and pushed him down on the sofa without hesitation.
Pushing away her confused daughter, she took out the household medicine box from the drawer.
Skilled first aid measures were taken from her hands. She first stopped the bleeding, used medical needles and threads to treat the wound, and then put on a clean bandage.
Aware of the depth of the wound, this level of measures is definitely not enough.
She frowned:
"Chen Mo, your wound needs to be treated in the hospital!"
"Come...it's too late!"
Chen Mo looked at her and suddenly smiled, his lips turning a little white.
Just lying on the sofa, his eyes kept looking at Song Qing and her daughter's cheeks.
It seems that he wants to remember their faces deeply in his heart.
I wish I could keep looking at them like this.
The atmosphere in the entire room seemed to have come to a standstill.
moment,
Big tears suddenly fell from Song Qing's eyes, and a hint of grievance appeared on her strong face.
He hesitated.
Still grabbed his hand:
"Chen Mo, I want to know, you...what did you do? It's been more than ten years, and you haven't responded.
"Why, why did you want a divorce and leave without saying goodbye when Xiaoqing was only two years old?"
"We agreed to give me the answer within one year, but what happened? You failed to live up to my expectations and Xiaoqing's expectations for you... In the past ten years, we have forgotten you. Why, you
