After all, his attitude towards Quan Ye just now was not too good, although he regarded him as Li Li, but he also felt very sorry.

Seeing that his apology was sincere, Quan Ye felt that this man had no bad intentions, and the only drawback was that he was too cowardly and incompetent.

But in life, where is it possible to be perfect, to be able to do anything?

Most of them have things that can't be done, but even fewer are things that the best people can't do.

So Quan Ye said lightly: "Quan Ye."

He didn't explain the superfluous words, because in the capital, as long as the word Quan Ye is enough, it is enough to explain a lot of things.

There may be people who have not seen what he looks like, but they have definitely heard his name, just as every Chinese knows the existence of Bill Gates, and the name of Quan Ye can definitely be called thunderous in the capital.

Fortunately, Li Li was making tea in the kitchen, otherwise she would definitely faint when she heard this name.

Zheng Guoan was a little surprised when he heard this, although he didn't do finance, it didn't affect him to know Quan Ye's fame.

The word "powerhouse" itself can be regarded as a symbol of power.

But the question is, how can such upper-class people come to their "slums".

It can't be out of curiosity.

So, could it be that the enemy came to the door, but he didn't look like he would offend him, and he might not even have an intersection on weekdays.

Zheng Guoan couldn't figure it out, so he could only look at Quan Ye cautiously and cautiously, as if he wanted to see his intentions from his face.

But how is that possible, not to mention that Quan Ye's face has no expression, if Quan Ye really doesn't want him to see it, then he is just working in vain.

And the momentum on Quan Ye's body is not at all comparable to Zheng Guoan, that kind of creepy cold makes Zheng Guoan's heart tense, for fear that he will be in trouble.

But Zheng Guoan still couldn't see anything, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and then looked at Zheng Xichen, and had a little bottom in his heart.

No matter what Quan Ye came here for today, whether it was an ordinary visit or a malicious fault finder, with Zheng Xichen here, he must be a father to be tough.

He can't let Zheng Xichen suffer the same hardships as before, even if it's a big thing, he has to carry it, even if he can't bear it, he has to take his old life to help Zheng Xichen get out of danger!

So Zheng Guoan seemed to have made up his mind, and asked: "Excuse me, what did Mr. Quan come to our house today, and did our family do something in the morning?" ”

His voice was still trembling, obviously afraid of the momentum on Quan Ye's body, but his expression was firm, his eyes were shining, and he was actually charming.

Quan Ye glanced at him in surprise, and before he could say anything, he heard Zheng Guoan gritting his teeth, lowering his head, and saying loudly.

"Mr. Quan, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about our family, if she does anything, it's because of my poor discipline as a father, please blame me!"

It was rare for Zheng Guoan to say such a big paragraph, and after saying that, he was a little panting, and his face was flushed, and he looked very embarrassed.

He also knew that he was too presumptuous to ask.

These big people, if they are really offended, it is extremely difficult for him to let go.

As soon as these words came out, Quan Ye frowned slightly, and looked at Zheng Xichen quietly.

At this time, Zheng Xichen was looking at Zheng Guoan sluggishly, and he couldn't react.

Zheng Guoan actually thought that it was because Zheng Xichen made some mistakes, and Quan Ye came to teach them a lesson today?

And what surprised her the most was that Zheng Guoan has always been as timid as a mouse, when he thought that Zheng Xichen had made some mistake and offended a big man, could he still say "our family" so firmly?

Shouldn't it be to shirk responsibility, put aside the relationship, and then ask her out of the house?

In Zheng Xichen's opinion, he should apologize to Quan Ye with a big change of expression, and then say some nice words that he disciplined badly, and then hand himself over to Quan Ye to deal with, this is what cowardice should be done.

However, now he has become like this, familiar and unfamiliar.

Zheng Xichen carefully looked at Zheng Guoan's face and found that he was actually full of gray hair.

Then she suddenly realized that she hadn't seen her father well for a long time, and she hadn't greeted or cared about him.

At most, he made money, handed over the living expenses to Li Li at the door, and then glanced at Zheng Guoan, who came out listening to the movement, turned around and left.

Even when they lived together before, they disdained this cowardly man who didn't even dare to say a big word, and even if he ignored him

She thinks this is what Zheng Guoan deserves.

However, unconsciously, Zheng Guoan is also old, no longer in the prime of life, but in his forties, he is already like an old man in his last years, and he also has a lifeless twilight on his body.

He's completely old, and he's not the same anymore.

However, in this old state, he hardened up.

But his gray-haired, frail appearance is closer to the heroic father in Zheng Xichen's memory than when he was in his prime before.

The father who would take him home, the father who could build toys, the father who could tell stories, the father who would stand up to protect him when he met the bad guys, and the father who helped from behind when his mother couldn't reach the cabinet.

More like it than ever.

So, Zheng Xichen's eyes couldn't help but sour, and he called in a low voice: "Dad"

Zheng Guoan didn't wait for Quan Ye's response, he was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, constantly thinking about what to do, after hearing Zheng Xichen's call, he subconsciously glanced up, and then he was completely stunned.

The father and daughter stared at each other for a long time, and the atmosphere seemed to be stagnant, and Quan Ye knew each other very well and did not make a sound to disturb the time of the father and daughter.

"Xichen, you, are you willing to forgive Dad?" Zheng Guoan's voice trembled a little, his face looked in disbelief, his eyes were a little hopeful, he looked at Zheng Xichen intently, paying attention to her expression, and nervously waiting for her answer, for fear that the call just now was his own auditory hallucination.

The word forgiveness is only two words when it comes out, but these two words that are ordinary and insignificant to others are very important to Zheng Guoan.

If he couldn't get Zheng Xichen's forgiveness, then he really couldn't close his eyes when he was under Jiuquan.

When Zheng Xichen heard the word forgiveness, his eyes shook slightly, and then a trace of pain appeared.

Forgiveness, how easy it is to say these two words, you can say it by opening your mouth lightly, but where is the real forgiveness so simple?

A sentence of forgiveness represents not only forgiveness for Zheng Guoan's cowardice, but also the abandonment of the past.

If you don't let go of that painful memory, how can you forgive?

Those days were simply Zheng Xichen's abyss, and it was also the darkness that she could never forget for the rest of her life, and it was also a self that she couldn't separate.

So she really can't forgive.

Zheng Guoan did not personally make her miserable, but even the bystanders who let it go and let it go are extremely hateful.

It is precisely because of his own father's sake that she can not hate her, but she can never forgive him.

Perhaps, in the future, a long, long time later, when I can completely tell that past story as someone else's story easily, maybe I can truly forgive him.

But that's by no means now.

Other people who think they know a lot of truth always say that forgiveness is a virtue, forgiving others is also forgiving oneself, and if you are always immersed in the past, how can you go further?

But everyone understands the truth, and who can do it all.

Zheng Xichen is not a fool, she naturally knows that forgiveness is a good thing, if she opens her mouth now, she can immediately see her elderly father showing a happy face, and she can abandon the black years of the past.

But people are human because they have thoughts and memories.

If she forgives Zheng Guoan now, she will never be able to forgive herself.

If people's sins can be easily atoned for, how can there be so much resentment and hatred in the world?

Zheng Xichen's eyes gradually changed from wavering to firm.

Quan Ye saw it in his eyes, and he already knew Zheng Xichen's choice in his heart, and he was not surprised by Zheng Xichen's decision.

Zheng Xichen is indeed a good girl, and she is also very gentle, most of the time, she is smiling, but Quan Ye knows better than anyone else, Zheng Xichen is very sensible in her heart, if she pouts up and does one thing, a hundred cows will not be able to pull it back, let alone this kind of matter of principle?

Sure enough, he heard Zheng Xichen's answer almost immediately: "Forgive, this word is too extravagant, I can't let myself go now, how can I forgive you?" ”

Even if she lives in the condemnation of unfilial piety every day, she can't give forgiveness.

It's not because she holds a grudge, but it's about principles.

The bright light in Zheng Guoan's eyes slowly dimmed, like the withering of a flower.

"I see."

Zheng Xichen looked at his old face, his heart was sour, and he couldn't bear to shout: "Dad." ”

It's like a code between them, symbolizing something important.

Although she can't forgive Zheng Guoan, who left her when she was in danger and pain, she is willing to think of her father in that impression.

Zheng Guoan's spirit was suddenly shocked, his eyes moistened, and a tear hung around his eyes for a long time, and finally slipped down.

How many years have you not heard these two words?

Zheng Guoan is not sure, maybe a few years, maybe more than a dozen years.

How eager he was for Zheng Xichen to be able to call him dad again, and to see her smile without haze.
