On the other side, Sophie's house.

In the morning, Sophie's mother made breakfast early, and then shouted upstairs: "Zhenyue, Fei'er, Su Yang, come down to eat!"

Not long after the words fell, Su Zhenyue went downstairs alone, sat at the dining table and prepared to eat with chopsticks.

Mother Su walked to Su Zhenyue with a spoon, looked upstairs and saw that there was no movement, and said softly: "When the girl comes down in a while, don't mention to her about going to the United States!"

"What's wrong?" asked Su Zhenyue puzzled.

Su's mother said angrily: "What do you say, you haven't been at home for many days, and when you see your daughter, you mentioned to her about going to the United States for the first time, she must be upset, she doesn't go out of the house much these days, and often sits on the balcony in a daze, it is estimated that you forced her to go to the United States to make trouble." ”

Su Zhenyue paused and said, "Hey, forget it, I can't rush this matter for a while, by the way, what did Su Yang say about Fei'er studying abroad?"

"I don't know what he thinks! I've never seen him speak to me!" Su's mother complained.

Su Zhenyue said in an educational tone: "Your mother is really, hey, even if you show one-tenth of your attitude towards Fei'er to Su Yang, your relationship will not be like this!"

Su's mother replied: "Then he is not my own child, and it is not that you had to take him home back then, otherwise I wouldn't have looked at his face all day long!"

"Okay, don't say anything about being born or not being born every day, as long as he enters this door, he will be a member of my Su family!" Su Zhenyue said with some annoyance.

Su's mother knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she didn't speak anymore and went to the kitchen to work.

Su Zhenyue sat there, frowning, and a picture from more than twenty years ago suddenly appeared in his mind.

It was an autumn, Su Zhenyue was just a small police station director at that time, managing the peace of the party, at that time when the society was just starting, but it was also the most chaotic time.

Su Zhenyue was very young at that time, and after being introduced by the family, he met the current Su's mother, and the two quickly fell in love, because the family conditions of both parties were good, and after the consent of both parents, the two got married.

But after being married for three or four years, Su's mother has never been pregnant, which made Su Zhenyue anxious, and went to a lot of hospitals for examination.

Until that time, Su Zhenyue, as usual, rode the Phoenix brand bicycle distributed by the institute to work, and as soon as he arrived at the station, Su Zhenyue's police station received the task of his superiors to eliminate a man's nest.

At that time, Su Zhenyue was eager to make meritorious contributions, and directly took the personnel who could dispatch the police from the station, went straight to the trafficker's nest, and arrested eight suspects on the spot, as well as a two or three-year-old child.

According to the suspect's confession, the child was abducted and sold back from other places and was about to be sold to local villagers, but he never thought that he would be arrested by Su Zhenyue before he could contact the next family.

At that time, the child was timid and kept crying, but the moment he saw Su Zhenyue, he suddenly stopped crying, and stared at Su Zhenyue with big eyes, Su Zhenyue was also very rare for this child, probably because he had been married for a few years, and Su Zhenyue did not have a child of his own, so he took a fancy to this child at first sight.

In order to find the child's parents as soon as possible, Su Zhenyue interrogated the arrested traffickers, but the traffickers said that they had stolen the child and were on a busy street, and they did not know where the child's parents lived.

This made Su Zhenyue worried and contacted the local police station, but the police station over there did not receive a call to the police, which made Su Zhenyue speechless.

At that time, there were very few institutions in the welfare home, and Su Zhenyue didn't know how to arrange the child, so he kept putting him at the police station, but it was not a way to go on like this for a long time, and the superiors were particularly concerned about this extraordinarily large child trafficking case, so Su Zhenyue had the idea of adopting the child.

After a long discussion with Su's mother, he finally got through Su's mother's ideological work, brought this poor person home, and named him: Su Yang.

At first, Su's mother didn't accept Su Yang very much, almost never asked about his affairs, and never cared about Su Yang, only Su Zhenyue liked to play with Su Yang every time he came back from work, at that time Su Yang was not sensible, he was also very naughty, and he often caused trouble, which also made Su's mother even more disgusted.

A few years later, Su's mother suddenly became pregnant, which made the Su family celebrate together, and everyone was looking forward to the child in Su's mother's womb, but they also neglected Su Yang's feelings.

Later, Sophie was born, and Su's mother ignored Su Yang and gave her maternal love to Su Feier alone.

And Su Yang is also very rare for Sophie, and suddenly has a younger sister, which makes him feel that he finally has a playmate, and he leaves all the delicious and fun food to Sophie.

Su Zhenyue is okay, she likes Su Yang and Su Fei'er very much, and she buys double portions, but Su's mother only has Su Fei'er in her eyes, and every time she buys something, she comes close to Su Fei'er, almost not taking into account Su Yang's feelings, in her eyes, she feels that Su Yang is not her own, and she has no need to take care of him.

Over time, Su Yang gradually began to be a little autistic, he was in adolescence at that time, Su Zhenyue didn't come back often because of work, and Su's mother didn't care about Su Yang, so if she had anything to say, Su Yang was alone in her heart.

At that time, he knew that Su's mother had a great opinion of him, and he learned to do housework, wash clothes and cook by himself since he was a child.

Su Yang gradually had some thoughts about escaping from this home, and later in order to escape from this home as soon as possible, he asked for accommodation on campus, and after going to college, he didn't open his mouth to ask the family for a penny, he worked and studied outside, and rarely came back, but every time he came back, he would bring a lot of delicious food and fun to Sophie, so Sophie liked to stick to Su Yang since she was a child.

But every time she came back, Su's mother's attitude towards Su Yang was cold, ignoring it, Su Yang didn't say anything, but she would remember in her heart that there was an indelible mustard psychology between him and her.

But in the same way, Su Yang did not give up on himself because of this, but worked hard, and his academic performance was always very good, until he came out to work, and he rarely said to the outside world that he had a mayor father, because he wanted to prove that he could still live well without them.

Now that more than 20 years have passed, Su Yang has never known that he is not their biological child, and he has never doubted it, he just simply thinks that his mother does not like him.

After completing his studies, he got a good job with his efforts, but because he didn't want to go back to the home that was not even a home for him, he planned to move out, but Su Zhenyue disagreed, but Su Yang didn't want to face Su's mother, so he rarely came back, unless Fei'er was still at home, he would come back often.

Because of this, the relationship between Su Yang and Su's mother has always been very bad, which is also the biggest problem in Su Zhenyue's heart, in his eyes, whether it is his own child or not, he has always regarded Su Yang as his own child.

……

"Knock knock" There was a sound of going downstairs from upstairs, and as soon as Su Zhenyue turned his head, he saw Su Fei'er wearing a cloak and a look of not waking up.

Su Zhenyue looked at Su Fei'er dotingly, and Su Fei'er had already seen Su Zhenyue when she went downstairs.

"Dad, when are you coming back?" asked Sophie as she walked over to Su Zhenyue and sat down.

Su Zhenyue said with a smile: "I came back in the middle of the night yesterday, and my father will go to work in a while." ”

"Oh. Sophie replied with some loss in her heart, she hadn't seen Su Zhenyue for a long time, and every time she saw her father, she also wanted to be coquettish with him, but he was very busy every time, so busy that Sophie almost forgot Su Zhenyue's appearance.

Su Zhenyue felt a hint of embarrassment in the air, and he also knew that he had cared too little about Sophie over the years.

Su Zhenyue put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked with concern, "Fei'er, how are the results of this exam?"

Sophie didn't look up and took a sip of the soy milk in the bowl in front of her.

"I took the third place in the whole grade!"

Su Zhenyue listened to it and was a little surprised.

"Well, that's good, then you have to keep it up well!" Su Zhenyue praised.

Sophie raised her head and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Then can I not go to the United States?"

"Uh......" Su Zhenyue was obviously stunned for a moment: "Fei'er, Dad actually asked you to go to the United States to let you have a better learning environment and have a better development for your future path." ”

"So, you can't bear to let me go to the United States alone?" said Sophie's eyes, tears welling up in her eyes.

Su Zhenyue's heart tightened, he didn't know how much damage his decision had caused to Su Fei'er, but he regretted it a little when he saw Su Fei'er like this.

He stood up, walked to Sophie's side, held the petite hands, and muttered: "Fei'er, I'm sorry, maybe Dad did something wrong about this, but I also hope you understand Dad's distress, Dad just wants you to have a better life in the future." ”

Sophie looked up at Su Zhenyue with tears in her eyes, and said in a choked voice: "But I don't want to leave you, leave this home, I just want to be with you, at least let me feel at home!"

Su Zhenyue's heart ached, and he held Su Fei'er's hand tightly.

"Dad promised you that Dad would no longer force you to go to the United States, it was Dad's fault before!"

Su Fei'er listened and hugged Su Zhenyue's arm tightly, and her heart could finally be relieved.

"By the way, what about your brother?" asked Su Zhenyue without seeing Su Yang go downstairs.

Sophie shook her head and said, "I don't think I saw him come back yesterday!"

Su Zhenyue sighed, he touched Sophie's hair, and didn't speak again.
