Two years after the divorce, Shen Nian met her ex-husband Gu Yanzhou again in the KTV box.
He still looked cold to the bone, with his shirt sleeves rolled up to his forearms, sitting in the dark purple light without even raising his head.
Shen Nian thought it was just an accident.
Until he held her wrist, leaned over and asked in her ear: "That child—what's his name?"
One year and ten months ago, Shen Nian gave birth to a child alone without telling everyone. His surname is Shen. It has nothing to do with the Gu family.
But Gu Yanzhou began to appear in every corner of her life - at the entrance of the community, downstairs of the company, and in front of the lighted window of her home late at night. He looked at her with that extremely depressed, almost pathologically restrained look, as if he wanted to pay back all the debts he had owed over the past two years.
"Nian Nian, let me see him." "Why?" "Because in the past two years - I have never let myself feel better for a day."
Shen Nian thought that he had already become stone-hearted. But when she saw Gu Yanzhou kneeling at the door and looking at Xiaoyu at eye level - the man who never bent down and said "I am daddy" with red eyes - she realized that she had never really left.
Some love cannot be controlled by the divorce agreement. For some people, the body surrenders before the mouth.
