But at this moment, hearing Zhou Shiyan's words, Liu Changqing suddenly felt a little sorry for the girl in front of him, who was obviously so small.
Obviously... so young.
But I understood so much early on.
Compared with her, her daughter is too well protected, innocent and has no awareness of the dangers of this society.
When she was as old as Xia Zhi, she seemed to have already started to help her mother with work...
This is the past that Liu Changqing once learned from Lan Yixian.
Zhou Shiyan pursed her lips and calmed her heart a little.
Exhaled slowly.
"It was still dark when we left your house. My mother and I started packing things early in the morning and cleaned the house. Although we didn't bring anything with us when we came, we couldn't bring anything with us when we left.
The room is in a mess."
"..."
"Uncle Liu...you know, I was really happy when I lived with you."
Zhou Shiyan's tone slowed down a bit, as her mind seemed to recall the memories of when five people lived in that dilapidated home.
"Although my mother didn't say anything after we left, I could still tell that she was actually very sad. Before I moved into your house, my mother told me that you were a very nice person and very talented.
Responsibility..."
"Later, I also advised my mother not to give up. Although she asked me not to ask these things, she was still looking forward to meeting you until Liu Zhiyue told me that you and Aunt An were living together."
"Later, I learned from my mother that you and Aunt An had obtained the certificates, and also learned about her pregnancy. It was only then that I knew that everything had been settled... I didn't want my mother to come between you.
, my mother would not do this, so after knowing that Aunt An was pregnant, she gave up her previous efforts, completely stopped thinking about it, and ran her business with peace of mind."
After saying this, Zhou Shiyan stopped saying anything.
But those eyes were still staring at Liu Changqing, without any intention of shying away. Also today, she planned to do something for her mother.
What Zhou Shiyan loves most is her mother who has taken care of her for so long.
But during her contact with Liu Zhiyue, she slowly fell in love with him. For the same reason, she also fell in love with the doll he won by playing darts, and also liked the hairpin he gave her.
Slowly raising her hand, Zhou Shiyan touched the hairpin that was pinned to her hair today. After being stunned for a short while, she took off the hairpin with her hand.
Put it into the pocket of the coat.
After doing all this, Zhou Shiyan seemed determined.
The last trace of hesitation that existed in my heart just now disappeared.
"The reason why my mother chose to go to City B this time was to leave this place, and I agreed to go with her because... I don't want to see her look that sad again. I just talked to you
I said, I like Liu Zhiyue and your son, but I can't like him... As long as we are together, my mother will always see you in the future, and she will always feel uncomfortable."
"So this is the reason why you also want to go to City B?"
Liu Changqing finally spoke at this moment.
He looked at Zhou Shiyan who had said so much in front of him, his face more serious than before, and Zhou Shiyan looked at him and responded.
"Yes, that's my reason."
"..."
After falling silent, Liu Changqing thought for a long time.
"Didn't you tell Zhiyue that you were leaving, after the high school entrance examination?"
"No."
In response to Liu Changqing's question, Zhou Shiyan continued.
"So this is why I asked for leave today to come to you. I just want to ask you not to tell Liu Zhiyue about this matter."
"If I don't tell him, he will still know after you leave. Then he will definitely find a way to know where you have gone. He is my son, and I understand his thoughts very well."
"Then just hide it like this for now. City B is so big, he won't find me."
"..."
"And...I will find a way to let him and Zhao Xuanwen be together. In this case, he will gradually forget about me as time goes by."
"..."
In silence, Liu Changqing looked at Zhou Shiyan who said this, and the other person was also looking at him.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a smile appeared on Liu Changqing's face. He raised his hand that was hanging down and patted Zhou Shiyan's head gently.
It seems... Zhou Shiyan is still just a child.
Even if she matures prematurely and has her own ideas.
Children are just children after all, that's why she has such childish thoughts.
And...this extreme idea.
Do you think that if you push the person you like to someone else, you will slowly forget about her?
Innocent.
Liu Changqing knows his son very well.
That child... is not a child from an ordinary family.
Regarding Liu Changqing's sudden patting on her head, Zhou Shiyan didn't know the reason why the other party did this. She was about to say something when she heard the other party say.
"I never knew that you kid had so many thoughts in your head..."
"Uncle Liu..."
"But I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request."
Withdrawing his hand, Liu Changqing looked at Zhou Shiyan's somewhat thin body.
Such a child... what kind of injustice has he suffered to become like this? In fact, she must be very sad to make this decision...
Liu Changqing felt a little sorry for her.
I feel sorry for this child.
"If I don't tell Zhiyue, he will definitely run to find you after you leave, and I still have to take care of your Aunt An at home. What do you think I will do if something happens to him alone?
Feeling?"
"No, as long as Zhao Xuanwen is with him, he won't go looking for me..."
"That's my son. I know him better than you do."
After rejecting Zhou Shiyan's answer, Liu Changqing said seriously.
"That kid Zhiyue is very smart. No matter how much you try to hide it, he won't even know about it until you leave... So, your idea was wrong from the beginning."
"..."
"Of course, I also want to say sorry to you about your mother, but you should also know that I have a family now. I think Lan Yixian also understands this. The reason why she went to B
The city is not as complicated as you think. She just wants to give you a better life. After all, the salary offered by Chen Dafu’s father is really high..."
Speaking of which.
Liu Changqing looked into Zhou Shiyan's eyes.
From her face, you can vaguely see the shadow of Lan Yixian, the person who once lived in her home and relaxed her tired self...
Liu Changqing is very grateful to Lan Yixian.
But that's all.
He didn't want An Yuanyao to experience that kind of pain again, and he didn't want the woman who was pregnant with two children and gave everything to him wholeheartedly to get hurt.
This decision, the moment he accepted An Yuanyao...
