Time is still back to the day after Ma Yike and I separated, and that day I said goodbye to Ma Yi Ke and returned home.

Jiaqi was watching TV, and when she saw me coming home, she ran to me excitedly and asked, "Papa." Is Sister Coco back?"

At that time, I touched Jiaqi's head, lowered my head and smiled at her, "Sister Coco has gone home, and it will take a few days to come back." ”

At that time, Jiaqi was a little depressed when she heard my answer, gagged her little mouth, wanted something but couldn't say anything, and finally just looked at me, blinked with big bright eyes, "oh", and went to watch TV again.

At that time, Jiaqi did not doubt my words at all, so that she firmly believed that Ma Yike would come back, but she did not know that Ma Yike would not come back.

In the days that followed, Jiaqi was stupid and asked me several times, "When will Sister Coco come back?" and something like that.

But I just laughed and lied to Jiaqi that Sister Coco would come back, and Qiqi would wait a few more days.

And then Jiaqi still waited, waiting with conviction.

I don't know what the beginning was, and Jiaqi never asked me about the whereabouts of the "Sister Coco" she had been looking forward to, maybe it was the day she went to school a week later, or maybe it was months before it stopped, but I really can't remember.

All I remember is that many years later, when I mentioned to Jiaqi that she had someone to take care of her when she was a child, she just frowned and tilted her head to ask me, "Papa, who is that person you are talking about?"

That was the last time Jiaqi heard Ma Yike's name.

Since then, I haven't mentioned Maikor to her.

That name has only existed in my memory since then.

After Ma Yike left, my life seemed to go back to a distant point, back to the days when it was just me and Jiaqi. It seems that Mr. Chen, Qian Yikang, or Ma Yike are just passers-by in my life, and when the waves bulldoze the footprints on the shore, there are still only me and Jiaqi left in the end.

Just like at the beginning.

After a year of turnaround, I finally got back to square one.

On the sixth night after saying goodbye to Ma Yike, there was a lot of trouble at Jiaqizi's house, because she was going to school the next day, so like all children when they go to school, they couldn't sleep at home with excitement until late, while I was very busy.

"Kiki, where did you put your schoolbag?"

"Here, papa. Jiaqi replied with a smile in a sweet voice, then pointed to the bag she had hidden behind the door.

"Well, what about the pencil case?"

"In the bag. ”

"That'...... Where's the pen I bought for Kiki?"

"It's in the pencil case, Papa. Jiaqi answered me obediently.

"Kiki is so smart, are you all set?"

"Hmm~ hehe. Jiaqi pursed her lips, put her two little hands behind her back, and smiled sweetly at me. Smiling, Jiaqi opened her eyes and looked at me with some unease and asked.

"Papa, are there a lot of teachers in the school?" asked Jiaqi with some excitement. Lacking contact with the outside world since she was a child, what she hopes most is to have some peers and teachers who have never met before. Although in the past, Ma Yi can be regarded as Jiaqi's teacher, but because Ma Yike and Jiaqi have a good relationship, strictly speaking, Ma Yi can be regarded as Jiaqi's sister rather than a teacher. Jiaqi has always been looking forward to meeting real teachers in the classroom one day.

"Yes, there are a lot of teachers. Will teach Kiki a lot of things, like ...... Just like Sister Coco. ”

"But I saw it on TV, on TV, that the teacher was very fierce and would ...... Beat people!"

"No, the teacher will be very good to Kiki, as long as Kiki is obedient, the teacher will like Kiki very much. ”

"Then I...... What if I don't obey?"

"No, Kiki is so obedient, how can she be disobedient?"

"Hmm...... Papa, papa, are there still many, many students in the school?"

"Yes, there are many, many classmates who are the same age as Kiki, and they will all play with Kiki......"

I comforted Jiaqi that day and told her a lot about school, and it wasn't until late that Jiaqi finally fell asleep.

Looking at Jiaqi's sleeping position next to the bed, I was full of emotion.

Time flies, and no one is left.

Before I knew it, I had picked up Jiaqi, and it had been seven years. From a baby who couldn't even speak at the beginning, to a beautiful and cute little girl who smiles sweetly, sometimes it's a miracle when you think about it.

Thinking of the time when I was running around and working hard for Jiaqi, thinking of how busy I was for her back then, racking my brains in order to hide her, I really feel that that time was so far away.

Distant as a star.

Of course, I will never forget those who helped me and Jiaqi, and those who walked in my and Jiaqi's memories, I will never forget.

My father, Aunt Bao Juan, Mr. Chen, Ma Yike...... And so on, those who have paid for love cannot be forgotten, and they are worth remembering for the rest of my life.

Late that night, Jiaqi slept, the house was quiet, and I was restless, so I had to drink alone in the courtyard.

The autumn moon that night was bright and white, and it was a rare full moon.

Sitting on the stone table in the courtyard, I held my wine glass, looked at the cold moonlit sky, and drank silently.

At that time, facing the moonlit night sky, I missed Mr. Chen.

Jiaqi is going to school tomorrow, in the name of Mr. Chen's daughter, Chen Xueqi.

I think if it weren't for Mr. Chen, I'm afraid Jiaqi would never have been able to enter the school gate for the rest of her life.

I'm really grateful to him.

Somehow, while drinking, I remembered the scene when I answered Mr. Chen's third question in the hospital that day.

"Xiaodong, when you come to Sanxin Company, don't you regret it?"

That's what Mr. Chen asked me at that time.

And my answer is.

"Mr. Chen, to be honest, I regret coming to Sanxin Company. ”

At that time, Mr. Chen looked at me with disappointment, his eyes full of loneliness.

But I'm not done yet.

“…… But Mr. Chen, I want to say that I don't regret meeting you, in fact, I have always had a sincere word to say to you, but I have always been embarrassed to say it. I looked at Mr. Chen and said with some embarrassment.

"Mr. Chen, meeting you is the greatest luck of my life. ”

At that time, when he heard my words, Mr. Chen first closed his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, then opened his eyes, looked at me for a long time, smiled slightly, and said to me: "Xiaodong, I also want to tell you that the first time I saw you, you regretted it when I wanted to adopt Jiaqi, at that time I saw that you were really nostalgic for that girl, and I knew at that time that you were a person who values love and righteousness." This kind of love and righteousness is not the righteousness on the rivers and lakes, but the precious true feelings that people live in the world. At this age, I really don't see anyone like you. So...... You know, I'll try to keep you. Xiaodong, I am very satisfied with your third question. I'm really happy with you. ”

"Xiaodong, meeting you is also the greatest luck in my Chen Kaiye's life. ”

That was the most unforgettable thing Mr. Chan said to me, and I still remember Mr. Chen's sincere smile at me at that time, no matter how long it will be. Whenever I think of Mr. Chen's smile and sincere words to me that day, I can't help but want to cry.

My thoughts gradually closed, and I still sat alone at the stone table in the courtyard.

On the cold round stone table, two glasses of wine were placed.

I drank one of them, then stood up and spilled the other into the vast moonlit sky.

The wine is spilled, reflecting the light of the moon's sky.

That glass of wine is my toast to Mr. Chen.

I will never forget that there was such a person in my life. He was free-spirited, he was noble, he was elegant and gentle, he was noble and wise, he used to smile sincerely at me, he gave me the most sincere teaching, and he helped me selflessly again and again.

The man who has done so many miracles has completely changed my destiny.

I will be grateful to him and miss him for the rest of my life.

The autumn moon was thick, the cool breeze was blowing, and the light of the bright moon sprinkled the entire black sky.

Looking at the autumn moon hanging high in the other side of the sky, I held the wine glass and silently prayed for blessings.

……

Mr. Chen, please cherish all the way.

May you and your daughter meet in heaven!
