Six years ago, she was the "ugly duckling" who was forced to drop out of school by school bullies, and he was the "flower of the high mountain" that everyone looked up to. Six years later, she was a nurse in the municipal hospital, and he was the cold-faced president of Ruian Medical. A reunion tore open the cracks in time: the group photos that were cut off by him, the malicious rumors on the forum, the unspoken "I'll wait for you" on the day he dropped out of school... All misunderstandings and regrets resurfaced in his daughter Xiaotang's milky-voiced "Uncle Pei".
Xiaotang is the secret that Su Tang has kept for six years - a small dumpling carved in pink and jade, with a tear mole at the end of his eye that looks very much like Pei Huaiyu. This child would hold up the drawing paper and say "This is Dad and me" when his mother was working the night shift; when Pei Huaiyu delivered strawberry cake, he would blink and ask, "Uncle, are you the star my mother hid in her mobile phone?" Then, the flower of the high mountain began to "work hard" crazily: waiting for Su Tang in the hospital late at night, rummaging through the old house where Xiaotang lived on the pretext of giving toys to Xiaotang, and saying "I am daddy" with red eyes at the kindergarten parent-teacher meeting.
But Su Tang couldn't believe it - was his indifference when he said "stay away from me" really just out of necessity? Until one day when she was sorting out her old things, she pulled out the diary at the bottom of the box. There was a yellowed note on the last page: "Su Tang, I changed my ticket, don't hide from me." In Pei Huaiyu's drawer, there was a recording of a call from seven years ago: "Ayu, I was bullied..."
When Zhou Manman's rumors were overwhelming and the shadows of the past were once again shrouded, Pei Huaiyu stood in the heavy rain and pressed Su Tang's hand to his heart: "This time I will chase you, starting from the unfinished sentence seven years ago."
The fog has cleared
