When Ren Ju and Shen Yuan appeared in front of Ren Zhiqian with cakes and flowers, Ren Zhiqian never thought that his birthday would be celebrated by his son and daughter today. Looking at the picture that had appeared in his dream countless times and finally presented clearly in front of his eyes today, Ren Zhiqian couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. He doesn't think he's a good father, because he can't give his children the same kind of love he can give, and he can't handle everything properly. For many years, I have been worried about my own and Xu Yang's children, so that I have ignored Ren Hao, and even the news that my son has a beloved girl who is ready to marry her is only known through TV news, I wanted to take the initiative to care about my son's marriage, but I didn't expect that in front of my daughter who was finally lost and recovered, I still chose to neglect my son and put the recognition of my daughter in the first place. But the funny thing is that in the process of looking for another child for many years, I never had the courage to think about taking her back to my own home, until I heard my son say to him, "Whether it's brother or sister, as long as you find it, bring it back, I have no opinion." "I dare to think about recognizing the child I have been looking for. Suddenly, Ren Zhiqian felt that he was ridiculous, and he wanted to do his best to be a father who loved his children, but he hurt both children.

Shen Yuan smiled and stuffed flowers into Ren Zhiqian's arms, hugged Ren Zhiqian, and whispered softly in his ear, "Dad, happy birthday." Just because of this sentence, Ren Zhiqian's whole body seemed to be wrapped in a gentle and comfortable warm current in an instant, and he patted Shen Yuan's shoulder with great relief and said, "Thank you for returning to Dad's side." However, at this time, Ren Ju didn't say a word, walked straight to the table with the cake, put the cake on the table, unpacked the cake box by himself, and then sat down with his back to Ren Zhiqian and Shen Yuan and said lightly: "It's really a pity Dad, everyone's birthday is only once a year, otherwise you can be with your beloved daughter every day." When Ren Zhiqian heard Ren Hao's words, the smile on his face that was still full of it just now gradually solidified. He pulled Shen Yuan to the dining table and sat down, looking at the two children sitting on either side of him, Ren Zhiqian couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He turned his head sideways to look at Shen Yuan, who was smiling and putting candles on the cake, and then turned his head sideways to look at Ren Yuan, who happened to be looking at Shen Yuan for a long time. Ren Zhiqian cautiously said to Ren Hao: "Son, you told your father before······" I did say that whether it's my brother or sister, if you find it, you can bring it back, and I have no opinion. Dad doesn't have to worry about me going back, as long as she's willing to move in, I won't object to it. Before Ren Zhiqian's words were finished, Ren Hori had fully understood what he meant, and also expressed his attitude. Ren Zhiqian got Ren Hao's permission, so he immediately said to Shen Yuan: "Yuanyuan, move back home and live with your father and younger brother." Ren Zhiqian saw a faint smile on Shen Yuan's face after ending his words, Ren Zhiqian's heart was very happy, maybe his daughter would agree to his request. However, what Ren Zhiqian didn't expect was that his desire to reunite his family still failed to come true. Shen Yuan smiled and held Ren Zhiqian's hand and said, "I also want to live with my father and younger brother, but I'm sorry Dad, I have to keep my current home." Because everything there is a copy of what it looks like when you lived with your mother, and even though it's a copy, I still wish I could live in the same house where my mother once existed. If Shen Yuan simply refused, Ren Zhiqian would definitely try his best to let Shen Yuan move over and live together. However, Shen Yuan's reason just now made him speechless. Children may not understand, but they know it in their hearts. The former home was not the place where she lived with Xu Yang at all, but the place where she imprisoned Xu Yang and forced her to stay with her······ Thinking of this, Ren Zhiqian no longer had the courage to persuade Shen Yuan. He had no choice but to smile and watch Shen Yuan light the birthday candle for himself, laugh and listen to the birthday song that the two children sang for him, and smile and silently make the birthday wish in his heart that was just rejected and could no longer be realized······

Seeing Shen Yuan eating, Ren Zhiqian couldn't help but fall into a trance, she was really too similar to Xu Yang, except for the black mole on her forehead, she was simply Xu Yang. Until now, I still can't forget Xu Yang's eyes at the moment he left him. That was the first time she was willing to take the initiative to look at her, and the moment she turned to look at herself, she was really ecstatic, even if she did everything in exchange for this moment, she had no regrets. originally thought that she would be a little reluctant to herself after she said that she was willing to let her go, so when Xu Yang turned to look at herself, at that moment, she was full of expectations and just imagined that she could smile at herself, even if this smile would only last for a second. However, at this moment, all my expectations and all my illusions were shattered······

Xu Yang turned around and looked at Ren Zhiqian.

Ren Zhiqian suddenly became ecstatic, "You are finally willing to look at me." ”

"Thank you······" Xu Yang had no nostalgia and walked straight forward······

The picture of that year reappeared in front of him, Ren Zhiqian's eyes were moist, and he couldn't tell whether the girl sitting next to him who was smiling at him from time to time was Xu Yang, who he had loved all his life but never wanted to have anything to do with him, or whether he had been looking for her for half his life, as long as he saw her, he would fantasize that it was because that person had the same heart as himself that he left his daughter Shen Yuan, who was as precious as a treasure. Ren Zhiqian was immersed in his thoughts about Xu Yang and couldn't extricate himself, but Ren Hao's words broke this longing that he was unwilling to get out. Ren Ju lowered his head and ate by himself, while casually saying, "I'm about to get married, Dad will come to the wedding if he is free." Ren Zhiqian's words made Ren Zhiqian feel unhappy for a while, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "When?" "Maybe a month later, maybe a week later, maybe a few days later, of course, the sooner the better for me." Dad must have known about the news of my marriage on TV, and he must have found someone to investigate, if you have no opinion, arrange your time. Ren Ju said his thoughts unhurriedly, his tone was still understated, and the ease and casualness contained in it made Shen Yuan feel incredible. Compared with Shen Yuan's surprise at Ren Hao's understatement, Ren Zhiqian seemed much calmer. After a thoughtful pause, he asked, "Why are you in a hurry to get married, I want to know your reasons." Ren Ju raised his head with a light smile, looked at Ren Zhiqian's slightly suspicious eyes, and said lightly: "Because the person who wants to marry me doesn't love me, I will only feel safe if I marry her early." "Will you feel safe?" Ren Zhiqian's calm expression suddenly became gloomy, and his slightly trembling hands tightly grasped the goblet on the table, and the red wine in the glass began to wash slightly on the wall of the glass because of the trembling of Ren Zhiqian's hands. Suddenly, Ren Zhiqian threw the glass in his hand at Ren Hori, "If you want to take revenge, I have to tell whose life you are ruining now!" Ren Hori didn't have time to dodge, of course he didn't want to dodge, the splashed glass shards scratched a small blood mark on his face, and the tiny blood droplets slowly remained, like a red tear. Ren Hori thought that the scratch would be very painful, but the strange thing was that he didn't feel pain at all, not even a slight strange feeling. Ren Ju looked at Ren Zhiqian, sneered and asked, "Revenge? Why should I retaliate against Dad, did Dad do something sorry for me?" Ren Ju raised his arm and wiped the blood droplets left along the wound with his fingers, looking at the bright red on his fingers, Ren Juri smiled bitterly: "Dad thought I would torture you by ruining my own life? Dad was wrong, I was like this, as long as the person I love can be with me, I don't care if she loves me the same way." If my mother could have married someone who didn't love her, why can't I marry someone who doesn't love me now?"

Ren Zhiqian's words made Ren Zhiqian speechless in an instant, his trembling hands seemed to be unable to stop, only felt a heart-piercing pain in his chest, and everything in front of him gradually became dark and gloomy, because it seemed that someone had said something similar to him back then······

"Don't push me, please don't push me······" Ren Zhiqian's hands trembled and retreated, and he even fell to the ground.

Xu Yang approached him little by little, she slowly squatted down and gently wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the walking dead can't force a person to death." ”

Xu Yang's smile made Ren Zhiqian feel stunned, he held Xu Yang's hand, and the guilt in his eyes gradually turned into pity, "Why, why did you become so indifferent, the Xu Yang I knew at the beginning was not like this······ That's not true. I betrayed my conscience to be with you, and I don't expect you to forgive me, but at least, even if you hate me, don't torture me by ruining yourself. ”

"I didn't spoil myself, this is what I will be in the future, whether you like it or hate it, I will never change again······ I don't hate you, I thank you. It was you and Xu Hai who taught me what it means to be congregated, betrayal, intimacy, and separation. ”

The picture of that year appeared in front of his eyes again, and Ren Zhiqian seemed to understand, maybe this was his retribution. There is no need for anyone to torture themselves, and the rest of their lives will be spent in guilt and remorse, it turns out that no one will take revenge on themselves by ruining their lives, because they have always been ruining themselves, and it is Ren Zhiqian who tortures Ren Zhiqian in a ruined way······ Thinking of this, Ren Zhiqian couldn't help but close his eyes, implying that he had acquiesced to all of Ren Hao's ideas, of course, it was also implying that he had surrendered, and he was no longer able to oppose it, and he was no longer qualified to oppose it······
