The cruelest thing in the world is knowing that you are going to die soon and being unable to do anything about it.

Lu Tingyuan could only wait quietly for death to come.

There's no time to be more broken than now.

Qiao Sheng felt cold all over and hugged her phone tightly, still unable to accept the news.

She suddenly remembered that Lu Tingyuan asked her, Shengsheng, are you afraid?

Only then did she realize that he was asking her if she would be afraid if he died.

Why would Lu Tingyuan ask such a stupid question?

How could she not be afraid? Not only was there fear, there was also pain and reluctance.

But no amount of pain and despair can bring Lu Tingyuan back.

If he is really dead, no one will call her Shengsheng again in this world.

Qiao Sheng also remembered that Lu Tingyuan asked her if she could see the stars during the day. He had actually been saying goodbye for the last time. From that time on, he wanted to tell her.

Shengsheng, after I die, I will become a star, a star that can be seen during the day. I will stay with you forever.

Qiao Sheng finally knew why Lu Tingyuan had to choose a wedding dress, design a wedding ring, put on a veil for her, and take the first and last wedding photo with her.

That was the only thing he wanted to do in this life.

He is fulfilling his final wish step by step so that he can die without regrets.

Why didn't you tell her? Why did you hide it from her! He also cruelly deleted all the photos. He didn't allow her to remember him?!

Qiao Sheng didn't believe that he couldn't find any trace of Lu Tingyuan's existence. The dressing room where he stayed and the villa where he lived. As long as you search carefully, you will find countless memories of him.

That was the only thing he had left.

Qiao Sheng didn't care whether she had a fever or how much her feet hurt or whether they were bleeding. She put on her shoes and took her coat. She didn't even have time to change into her wedding dress, so she went to find the place where Lu Tingyuan lived in country y.

place.

However, Shen Yu stopped her as she rushed out of the corridor and showed her a piece of night news.

A fire broke out in a two-story villa, and the fire was just extinguished.

Qiao Sheng looked at the blackened ruins on the screen, then turned stiffly to look at Shen Yu. Shen Yu wanted to tell her that this was Lu Tingyuan's home in Country Y, which was destroyed by a fire.

The police were still investigating who set the fire, but Qiao Sheng thought absurdly that the truth was that Lu Tingyuan had arranged all this in advance.

He didn't want to leave anything behind, he wanted to erase all traces of his life in this world, just to prevent his lover and daughter from being sad.

Forgetting is the best outcome.

Qiao Sheng lost her strength and fell limply to the ground. There were tears on her face, but she had no strength to cry.

The arrival of this heavy snow seemed to erase Lu Tingyuan's existence, take him to another world, and let him go cleanly.

Qiao Sheng closed his eyes in despair, everything seemed to have been doomed.

…

Jiangcheng.

The sun sets in the west.

Qiao An, accompanied by Xiao Guai, was staying in the flower shed, holding a flower watering pot to water her mother's beloved flowers.

Only when flowers drink enough water can they grow healthily.

A gust of wind blew, and the leopard lying at Qiao An's feet suddenly raised its head and sniffed the air. Qiao An touched the little boy's head and said, "Good boy, keep sleeping. An An will continue to water the flowers."

Qiao An had a sweet smile on her face. She felt the gentle wind caressing her face, tickling her, so she giggled.

Looking at the blown petals, An An put down the kettle and ran forward. She wanted to catch the gust of wind, but the wind was moving so fast that she couldn't touch it no matter what.

An An raised her hand and found only rose petals in her hand.

The wind left gently. Before leaving, it blew up the small fetal hair on An An's forehead and blew up her hair.

It's such a warm wind, it feels like I'm back in summer.

An An squeezed the petals in her hand tightly and suddenly murmured in a low voice, "Dad..."

Someone walked into the flower shed. You Zhi suppressed the emotions in his heart and walked quickly towards An An, "An An, let's go change clothes. We will go to the airport in twenty minutes."

An An ran towards You Zhi, threw herself into her grandmother's arms, and held her grandmother's hand with her two little hands, "Why are we going to the airport? Where are we going?"

When You Zhi was still thinking about how to hide it from An An, the little guy asked himself, "You are going to find dad and mom, right?"

Hearing An An mention his father, You Zhi's heart skipped a beat.

She had just learned what happened in Country Y. Lu Tingyuan sewed the only bulletproof vest into Qiao Sheng's wedding dress. He used his life to protect the one he loved, but he could no longer open his eyes.

Just like that, he died in a foreign country.

An'an hasn't celebrated her birthday yet and is still a six-year-old baby.

You Zhi couldn't bear to tell An An that her father was no longer in this world.

"Grandma." Nunuo's voice came, causing Youzhi to squat down and respond repeatedly, "Well, let's go find dad and mom. Can grandma take An An to change clothes first?"

An An nodded obediently, and with her grandma holding her hand, they left the flower shed and returned to An An's princess room.

When An An was changing clothes, You Zhi noticed what she was holding in her hand.

"What is An An holding?"

An An opened her palm, and inside was a rose petal.

The petals looked fresh, and You Zhi thought which flower An An had picked them from. When he was getting An An's furry coat, You Zhi said, "Throw it away, An An."

The little guy immediately clenched his fists and shook his head at his grandma.

"An'an, don't throw it away."

She has to keep it on her body because these are not ordinary petals.

You Zhi didn't force it. After getting An An dressed, he took her hand and left. The driver drove them to the airport.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon when we landed at the airport.

Ming personally drove to pick her up. When she saw her grandpa, An An ran over and took out the petals like a treasure to show her grandpa.

Ming hugged An An, although she was sad, she coaxed her, "The petals are so beautiful. They are the roses that my mother likes. Is this the gift that An An wants to give to her mother?"

An An thought about it carefully, then shook her head, "No, the petals were given to An An by her father. It was her father who asked An An to give them to her mother. It should be a gift from her father to her mother."

Ming frowned and looked at You Zhi.

Neither of them said anything, they hugged An An and got into the car, driving her towards Xue Ming.

Qiao Sheng was in Xue Ming, in her room. She didn't wake up until noon. Shen Yu fed her and then told her that An An and You Zhi were already on their way here.

An An is coming, making Qiao Sheng fall into grief again.

She stopped eating and sat alone in front of the window. Shen Yu was worried about her and stayed with her.

Until there was a knock on the bedroom door, and An An, wearing a light yellow cotton coat, jumped in and shouted, "Mom! I'm here!"

Putting her two little hands on her mother's knees, An An raised her head and looked at her mother.

Mom's eyes are red. Has she cried?

Like grandpa, grandpa's eyes are also red.

An An didn't know what happened to her mother and grandpa. She clung to Qiao Sheng's arms and held her tightly. Then she took out the rose petal from her pocket and was about to hand it to her mother when she heard her mother calling her An An.

"An'an is here, mom."

Qiao Sheng raised his hand and touched An An's face. His face was haggard and his voice was weak, "An An, I'm sorry... Mom told you that you will never have a father again."

An An didn't understand what this sentence meant. She grabbed her mother's hand and asked her, "Where did dad go? Did he go to work somewhere far away? Is there no way he can come back?"

How to talk to a child about life and death?

Qiao Sheng couldn't continue talking, she closed her mouth tightly, and Ming walked in, squatted next to An An, hugged her, and whispered to her, "An An, dad is asleep, he fell asleep peacefully

.”

"Then when will Dad wake up?"

Ming's throat tightened, knowing that it was difficult for Sheng'er to speak, but An An had to know.

"Dad, he will never wake up again."

An An seems to understand a little bit. Grandpa is saying that dad is dead?

But……

An An held the petals in both hands, and a voice in her heart told her firmly.

Dad is not dead, he is still alive in this world.
