Seven years ago, I disappeared while pregnant and changed my name, going from 160 jin to 100 jin.
Seven years later, I take my daughter to the doctor, and he's her attending physician.
He stands before me and asks, “Have we met before?”
I hold our daughter and smile. “I don't know you.”
Later, he uncovers the truth and waits all night downstairs from my home.
The rain is pouring, but he just stands there, like a fool.
Niannian leans over the windowsill and says, “Mommy, that man looks like my dad.”
I say nothing.
Because he is her biological father.
Later, his mother comes to see me and throws ten million at me. “Leave my son.”
I say, “I haven't relied on him at all these past seven years, and I won't need to in the future. But my daughter chose him, and I respect her choice.”
When Gu Shen finds out, he pulls me into his arms, his eyes red.
“This time, you'll be the one who disappears, and I'll be the one who looks for you. I'll search for you for the rest of my life.”
