Xu Duanran screamed hoarse, as if he wanted to cry out all the resentment he had towards Xu Mo for so many years.

After she finished saying this, there was silence between the two.

Xu Mo stood there blankly with a tissue in his hand.

He pursed his lips slightly, and there was a little confusion in his eyes that had always been calm.

At this point, even Xu Mo didn't know how to speak.

Xu Duanran was crying silently across from him.

She didn't make a sound, but her tears flowed down uncontrollably.

There are so many emotions mixed in these tears.

She was thinking how great it would be if there was no Xia Xingruo.

She was thinking how great it would be if Zhang Mingyang only loved her.

She was thinking, how great would it be if she was born into a happy family?

But unfortunately, these are just imaginations and are impossible to happen.

All the grievances are now gathered in tears.

"Ran Ran......"

When he spoke again, Xu Mo's voice was already a little hoarse.

It's like I've aged several years all of a sudden.

"Wipe your tears first."

Xu Duanran didn't dodge this time, or she didn't have the strength to dodge anymore.

Those voices just now were so hoarse that they seemed to have exhausted all her efforts.

This made her feel helpless for no reason, and she didn't even have the strength to stand.

Xu Mo gently helped Xu Duanran wipe away his tears.

He discovered that without realizing it, his daughter had grown to a height that was almost the same as him.

She is even going to be a mother soon.

After Xu Duanran controlled his emotions, he took the tissue from Xu Mo's hand and wiped away all his tears in a few strokes.

"Thank you for the evidence you gave me today."

When she spoke again, her tone no longer contained any emotion, and contained nothing but indifference.

"Is there anything else? I have to get back to work."

"Of course, dad still hopes that you will leave Linjiang after dealing with the problem, go out to live for a while, go wherever you want, and look around."

Xu Mo's tone was humble.

He hoped that his daughter would listen to his opinion, but all he got in reply was cold eyes and a period of silence.

"Of course, dad did do something wrong when he was young, and I never expected you to forgive me."

Xu Mo sighed, helpless.

"But I still want to tell you that you are my daughter, Xu Mo. No matter when you come back, your father will be here."

"I did not accompany you when you needed it most. This is my fault and my regret all the time."

"Now that Dad is capable, he wants to protect you and compensate you."

After saying these words, hope rose again in Xu Mo's eyes.

Because at least this time, Xu Duanran was not in a hurry to leave.

Instead, she stood in front of him and listened to what he had to say, even though her expression was still cold.

"What about Youyou? She is also your daughter."

"I will never let Youyou suffer any injustice."

Xu Mo answered without hesitation.

Hearing this answer, Xu Duanran sneered, as if he had heard something ridiculous.

"dad."

Xu Duanran's eyes were very complicated, and it was hard to tell whether it was disappointment or sympathy.

She no longer called him by his first name, but called him "Dad" with respect.

"For so many years, you have actually grasped nothing except your career."

Scenes of memories flashed through Xu Duanran's mind.

Mom doesn't seem to hate dad.

She had never said anything bad about Xu Mo to herself.

Finally, in front of the hospital bed, the most spoken words were:

"Mom is worried about you the most."

She didn't know whether her grandma hated her father.

After her daughter left, she never saw Xu Mo again and never accepted anything from him.

But she will allow Xu Mo to see her daughter.

I would also tell her, who was still young at that time, that her father cared about her very much and that she should not quarrel with him.

Just like my mother, she was the one I worried about most before my grandma passed away.

"Grandma's biggest wish is to see you get married one day."

Later she also went to see Lin Jingxi.

On the hospital bed, she no longer looked as beautiful as she did when she was young, and was even so haggard that she didn't recognize it was Lin Jingxi.

They didn't quarrel that time.

Lin Jingxi smiled and apologized to her, leaving her the last words.

"Help me take care of Youyou, okay?"

Xu Duanran found that he had seen many people die.

Is love important? Is hate important?

When you reach the last moment of your life, everything has disappeared.

No one mentioned Xu Mo's name again.

It was as if he had never appeared in these people's lives.

Whether it’s mom, grandma or even Lin Jingxi, what they worry about the most is their own children, and only their own children.

Scenes of memories flashed by, and Xu Duanran's heart unexpectedly calmed down.

She looked at Xu Mo and continued:

"Your career is the only thing left in your life. I think this is good. Maybe this is the life you want."

After saying that, Xu Duanran ignored Xu Mo.

She walked around and walked towards the door.

These two simple sentences seemed to really stimulate Xu Mo.

Seeing that Xu Duanran was about to leave, he didn't stop him this time.

It wasn't until the sound of the door opening rang that Xu Mo finally came back to his senses.

"Ran Ran!"

Hearing his father calling his name, Xu Duanran still hesitated.

She stood with her back to Xu Mo, not looking back.

"No matter what difficulties you encounter, you can always come to Dad, I..."

Xu Mo wanted to say that he didn't catch anything.

But this time he at least wanted to protect his daughter.

Unfortunately, before the words were spoken, Xu Duanran's figure had already disappeared from the door.

He was obviously the only one left in the room, but Xu Mo still stood there blankly.

I don't know what I'm thinking about.

After a while, he finally slumped down on the sofa helplessly, with only tiredness in his eyes.

He no longer had the high spirits of the past, and he seemed to have aged several years all of a sudden.

"Retribution..."
