Father's Love Is Like a Mountain: Protection

Type of novel: male reality/family ethics/urban warmth Introduction to the novel: Chen Jianguo is a "mountain". During the day, he is the "standard" for calibrating steel and concrete on the construction site; late at night, he is a craftsman who repairs time in front of the watch repair station. He shouldered everything silently, just to protect his daughter Xiaoyu, who suffered from a congenital disease, and her future that required expensive surgery. When the astronomical medical expenses of 850,000 yuan and the three-month countdown struck like thunder, the mountain began to collapse silently. He pawned ancestral tools, challenged high-risk projects, and boiled his body into a spring that was about to break. Daughter Xiaoyu secretly recorded "moments when dad was not so tired", workers forced "loans" with body temperature, and in the observation diary of community doctor Lin Xiuying, cold data imprinted fiery sacrifices. In desperate situations, kindness quietly echoes. An essay and a painting revealed the tip of the iceberg; a "starlight skills exchange fair" initiated by strangers gathered into a warm current that illuminated the cold night. When the century-old pocket watch was finally repaired and the engravings hiding the father's love for three generations were revealed, Chen Jianguo truly understood: time will wear out and life will be fragile, but love is the only criterion that can be passed down endlessly and repair everything. This is a story about dignity, sacrifice and community warmth. See how a silent mountain is supported by love, and see how the scattered sparks rekindle a sky of life.
