Dad: I was reborn after my daughter died

In a [-]-square-meter rental house, various wine bottles were piled chaotically on the floor, which looked a bit sloppy.

In the kitchen, on the dirty stove, there is a polished iron pot, in which delicious chicken soup is stewed.

The fragrance filled the whole room.

It's almost time to calculate.

Gu Chen absently lifted the lid of the pot.

In the next second, he was scalded by the sudden burst of steam.

"hiss."

He clenched his fingers with a pained expression on his face.

In fact, it wasn't the tingling of his fingers that really caused him pain.

Instead, he thought of his frail daughter Tangtang in the hospital, and his wife, Ji Pianran, who ran away from home 16 years ago.

He shook his head and gave a wry smile.

"Ji Pianran, you are really cruel."

Back then, Ji Pianran left without saying goodbye, and it has been 16 years since he left.

He left himself and his two-year-old daughter, Tangtang.

He used this as a revenge drink, threw Tangtang to his mother, and rented a [-]-square-meter rental house in the city by himself.

Drunk life and dream death every day.

When I ran out of money, I went out to do odd jobs and exchanged some money to continue buying wine.

Live like a walking dead.

Until two days ago, the school called and said that her daughter fainted suddenly in class.

He hurriedly ran and sent his daughter to the hospital for examination. The doctor concluded that the child had severe anorexia on the spot.

As the examination progressed, it was discovered that not only did she suffer from severe anorexia, but most importantly, the child also suffered from severe depression.

Anorexia is nothing more than a complication of depression.

Gu Chen sighed deeply, with a pained and helpless expression on his face.

Over the years, because of Tangtang's face that resembles Ji Pianran.

It was also the reason why he felt inexplicably sad every time he saw her. He always subconsciously avoided meeting his daughter.

She thought that the child had grown up and she could live her own life.

Just didn't expect...

He reached out to pick up the stainless steel spoon hanging on the wall, carefully filled the steaming chicken soup into the thermos bucket, and then went out towards the hospital.

In the ward, a 16-year-old girl was wearing a hospital gown.

Covered with a white quilt.

If it wasn't for the fact that the head was exposed outside, it would be impossible to tell that there was someone under the quilt.

She's...too thin.

Gu Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth, trying to reveal a smile, so that he could look kinder.

"Tangtang, come on, Dad made you chicken soup to nourish your body."

The girl's mental state doesn't seem to be very good.

However, after seeing Dad, he still managed to squeeze out a sweet smile.

"Dad, I'm sorry to make you worry."

Her voice was haggard.

Gu Chen felt a little sour in his heart, and his hand holding the thermos was blunt.

The person who should say sorry is obviously me.

If I had known that my daughter was sick and cared for her earlier, maybe things would not be like this now.

He put the lunch box on the bedside table of the hospital, opened the drawer of the cabinet, and took out a small bowl from it.

Carefully filled the soup, put it near his mouth and blew it, then handed it to his daughter, and fed her carefully.

"Tangtang, slow down, be careful it's hot."

The little girl nodded, and took a small mouthful cooperatively.

In fact, she can no longer feel the original taste of food, even if it is delicious, it tastes like chewing wax.

However, she still forced herself to swallow it.

"How is it? Is it good?" Gu Chen asked with concern.

The girl nodded and tried her best to smile, "It's delicious, thank you Dad."

Her smile is very sweet.

But the light in the pupils still dimmed bit by bit.

Eyes can't lie.

She is not happy.

Gu Chen was extremely concerned.

"What's the matter, is it because the soup made by Dad is not delicious, or... Tangtang is unhappy?"

The girl seemed to have been stabbed in the heart by someone's words.

She shook her head and bit her pale lips lightly, "It's nothing."

After a while, he started talking to himself again.

"I think mom, she should, never come back..."

She really missed her mother so much.

Two years old, the age at which a child doesn't understand anything.

She said to herself.

"I haven't seen her for so many years, obviously I have no feelings, but why do I miss her even more?"

She didn't know that there was a special feeling that would not fade with the passage of time, but would instead deepen day by day.

This is probably the magic power of blood.

Gu Chen pursed his lips, he couldn't explain, and he didn't have the face to explain.

He could only sit on the sidelines and watch her silently.

His eyes were full of worry.

"Actually, other children have their parents to pick them up, and when it rains, they also use an umbrella."

"That day... Lin Nannan gave me a bento box, she smiled and said to me, Tangtang, try it, it's my mother's taste, it's super delicious."

"At that time, I was thinking, I also had it..."

Before she finished speaking, the girl's voice trembled.

Then she suddenly turned her head to the side of the bed and began to vomit violently.

The heart tester on the table was beating wildly.

Gu Chen's scalp was numb, and he clenched his fists, feeling the great fear and tension for the first time in his life.

This feeling is even more worrying and frightening than Ji Pianran's departure.

"Doctor, doctor!!!"

He trembled.

......

Not surprisingly, her daughter was pushed into the ICU, while Gu Chen sat on the cold bench with a pale face.

He sat on the cold bench, staring at the pane of glass on the door.

Thinking back carefully, this life was really a failure.

Gu Chen and Ji Pianran's marriage was arranged.

There are actually two types of arranged marriages. One is a commercial marriage between rich and powerful families for the purpose of achieving greater benefits.

The other is the backward small rural areas, where parents spend money to marry their own wives and reproduce.

Needless to say, Gu Chen is the latter.

Poor places, but also backward.

It would be nice to have a daughter-in-law, but what about free love.

But Gu Chen yearns for free love, so after marriage, he basically hides from Ji Pianran whenever he can.

It wasn't until I drank too much wine at one time that there was sugar.

Also because of that drunkenness, the relationship between the two has undergone some subtle changes.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and soon, Gu Chen was called by those friends to work in the city.

Big cities and small villages are really different, everyone is free to love.

Seeing people who are older than me unscrupulously talk about the pursuit of love in front of me is heart-pounding.

Gu Chen's feelings were extremely complicated.

He was in an arranged marriage.

She obviously has no feelings, but she even has children.

Good luck tricks people.

He was really unhappy.

It was this kind of reluctance that made him lose the little affection he had just had for Ji Pianran.

He started not going back for half a year and a half.

Every time Ji Pianran called herself, she deliberately refused to answer.

Even if he knew, she had to walk several miles to the public phone booth in the town to call him.

However, he just didn't have the courage to take it.

What are you talking about? I have nothing to talk about.

His heart is too complicated.

She didn't even know whether she loved Ji Pianran or not.

The days went on like this year after year, until the third year, the first day of the new year.

The firecrackers are in full swing, and every house is very lively.

And Ji Pian quietly left the two-year-old Tangtang behind and left without saying goodbye.

On that day, I looked around for her and couldn't see her.

He was in a hurry, crazy.

It was that day that he realized that he actually liked her.

He seemed to have mistook his anger at the world for his anger at her.

For the next year, he kept looking for her, but there was no news of her.

Originally, he planned to bring the two-year-old Tangtang to the city to work together, but as the little girl got bigger and her chubby face became wider and wider, he found that she was simply a small version of Ji Pianran.

The corners of the eyes, the brows, the frown and the smile, and even the walking posture are all too similar.

It's so similar.

It seems that every time I look at it, my heart feels like a knife.

He couldn't live with her at all.

Later, Gu Chen still went to the city where he worked.

Send some living expenses to my mother every month.

I will only go back during the Chinese New Year.

In this way, more than ten years have passed.

Just when he thought that his daughter had grown up and became sensible, and could finally open her own human body.

The doctor's call destroyed his ruthless self.

......

"Gu Tangtang's family."

The door of the ICU was opened.

The doctor was wearing a white coat and rubber gloves, with a heavy expression on his face.

Gu Chen withdrew his thoughts, and a heart that had been hanging for a long time was raised in his throat. He stood up quickly, his voice trembling, "I, I am here!"

"Sir, doctor, how is my daughter?"
