2643 Forever

"When we first met, our child didn't dare to acknowledge us because of her identity. I was the one who recognized our daughter first. Red Plum, don't you think I'm impressive?

"You said that I disappear frequently and you can't find me all the time. I didn't want to, but I had no choice. Whenever I had to leave, I didn't have the time to greet you. When I reach your grave, I'll apologize to you and ask you to forgive me.

"My daughter told me that you've been gone for more than ten years. My heart hurts. It hurts so much. It feels as though my entire heart was dug out and a cold wind now sits inside. My entire body is cold.

"My father told me that I've already owed you for more than 20 years. I can't owe our daughter anymore. If not, I don't deserve to be a man. My father woke me up with his scolding. He's right. I need to be well. I need to take care of our daughter.

"Red Plum, I'll be sorry for the rest of my life. I won't be able to go and accompany you now. I can't let our daughter be sad. I need our daughter to be happy. Don't worry, I'll take good care of our daughter. I have to take care of my health. I can't become a burden to our daughter.

"Red Plum, how long do you think it will take for us to meet? Three to five years? I thought that it would be good if I could see you in three to five years. However, I'll miss our daughter. Wait for me for a few more years. We couldn't get together when we were alive, so we must be together after we die.

"Didn't you say that you're mine in life and in death? It's the same for me. We'll live and die together."

For the past 20 years, Mr. Fu had developed the habit of chatting with his wife before he slept. In the past, he would always take the picture and lie on the bed alone to answer the questions his wife asked him all those years ago that he couldn't answer.

Sometimes, he would talk about work and the problems he encountered. He would also talk about how he was looked down on by the developed countries when he went overseas for inspection.

As he worked, he swore in his heart that he must do something big and not let others look down on him.

Mr. Fu was used to chatting with his wife before sleeping, so he didn't notice that Ye Jian was already clenching her fists.

She couldn't breathe properly because she felt a lump in her throat.

Gradually, Mr. Fu's voice disappeared and the sorrow in his voice faded.

Ye Jian maintained her posture and tilted her head. She listened to her father quietly.

After three minutes, her father seemed to have fallen asleep. Ye Jian heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she heard her father speaking softly.

"Red Plum, I'm sending our daughter to school tonight. This is the first time I'm sending our daughter to school. I'm a little excited. Our daughter is easy to get along with. She's like you. No, she's not completely like you. Our daughter is more powerful and bolder than you.

"Red Plum, let me tell you something. I realized that our daughter has a crush on her captain. She has her own thoughts now that she's grown up. I'm happy and worried. She's in a military school. How can she fall in love just like that?

"How bitter is this crush? I had a crush on you in the past and hoped to see you every day. Even if it was only your back view, I'd still be happy.

"Our daughter is outstanding. Why would she have a crush? Her captain is indeed outstanding. He's tall and handsome. He always helped our daughter in the past. Logically speaking, he should be compatible with our daughter. However, I'm worried that our daughter is facing an unrequited love."

Ye Jian: "…"

Crush? Her father thought that she had a crush on… Captain Xia?
