Shu Xiao looked at the man in front of him. Undoubtedly, this face was not strange to him, but it was not familiar. He saw Li Han several times with one hand, but he had a special sense of dependence on him. The child could not tell what this was, but he could feel his sincerity.
If someone else came home to pick him up tonight, he would not agree, but knowing that this man was his father, the little boy had a different feeling in his heart.
In england, at school, he saw other children holding hands and even holding on to their shoulders. More than once, he secretly fantasized about what his father looked like. For a period of time, he was especially negative. He felt different from other children. He had no father, no tall and dignified backer. He could only try to pretend that he didn't care and make himself look strong.
But he never stopped imagining. This kind of imagination became a kind of resentment. Yes, he also blamed his father for not appearing in the past five years. Why didn't he care about his mother and him? Was it because they were not good?
Shu Xiao had always been careful and sensitive to the word "Father," so when his father appeared in front of him and really existed, although he wanted to pretend to ignore it, he could not help but feel excited.
He wanted to be with Li Han and see what his father looked like.
He did not know that Li Han had seen through all his disguised caution. The timidity and determination in his eyes were so contradictory and heartbreaking.
Li Han raised his hand again and touched his head. "Trust me, okay?"
The little boy lowered his eyes and looked at the quilt under him. It was not the cartoon at home, but pure white. After thinking for a moment, he stretched out his little finger and his beautiful little face was deliberately tense. "Then let's pull the hook. It's the puppy who goes back on his word."
Li Han looked down at the short, white little finger, and her heart softened. She handed her hand over and hooked it with his. "Okay."
The moment his skin touched hers, Li Han's heart was in bloom. The cute and smart little baby in front of him was his son, and his fingers were still so soft and fleshy.
Unfortunately, Shu Xiao did not give him any more contact. He quickly withdrew his hand, very deliberately.
This disguised awkwardness was also particularly cute in Li Han's eyes. He looked the same when he was a child, clearly eager to interact with his family, but restrained himself from showing it.
He knew that these four or five years had pushed the distance between them away, but he didn't mind. He would slowly fill the gap and walk towards them.
This was what he owed them. No matter how long it had been, he had to make up for it from scratch. What he was afraid of was never giving, but not having such a chance.
Five years of separation between life and death taught Li Han that nothing was more enjoyable than being alive.
As for the rest, he admitted.
...
At about six o' clock the next morning, Shu Tian got up from bed and walked into the bathroom. She looked at the woman with bloodshot eyes and an ugly face in the mirror, which was completely different from the graceful figure in the dress last night.
She didn't sleep all night. Her mind was filled with Shu Xiao and that shameless old man, tired and aggrieved.
She blinked her eyes and took a deep breath. She turned on the tap and washed her face with cold water. Finally, she felt better. She pulled the towel to wipe her face. She didn't even have time to take a shower. She changed into casual clothes and walked out of the bedroom.
She specifically borrowed a car from Meng Shichuan, a black volkswagen phaeton, the most inconspicuous million-grade car.
Shu tian fastened her seat belt and was about to leave when she realized that she knew nothing about his current company, not to mention the address, even the company's name was vague.
She had no choice but to drive to the law firm.
All the way down to the building in a nervous mood, she took the elevator to the familiar place. The people at the front desk had changed. They were not the same person as before. When she saw her, she naturally did not know her. She asked politely, "Hello, madam. Who are you looking for?"
