An An: a Farewell Diary of a Post-90S Father

Lin Yuan was born in 1992. He was the "only one" whose parents devoted all their resources. He prepared for the college entrance examination with the hope that his son would succeed; he squeezed through the green train and revised PPT under the leaky ceiling of a shared house in a big city; he spent six wallets to buy a house, but was betrayed by his lover when the house price fell. He had worked overtime countless times and had seen the office building at four o'clock in the morning. When his father passed away, he was standing in the conference room and reporting with a smile. It's not that he hasn't worked hard, it's just that times are too fast and there is no room for breathing. It wasn't until the birth of his daughter An An - the child with pigtails who always asked "Dad, why don't you smile" - that he understood for the first time: love is not about sacrifice, but about letting go. He no longer forced her to attend cram school, no longer talked about "our past", and even when he was about to die, he recorded a video: "An An, dad did not live a hero in this life, but at least he did not turn you into another me." Many years later, when An An grew up, she opened the diary left by her father and saw a line on the title page: "The wind will take away many things, but it can also bring seeds." She held her child in her arms and walked on a hillside full of dandelions. This is a silent epic of a generation of only children, and a gentle farewell written by a father to his children throughout his life. They bear the weight of the times, just to let their children move forward lightly. "An'an: The Farewell Diary of a Post-90s Father" is dedicated to all those who grew up in the wind and rain, but still choose to be gentle.
