I am terminally ill, but I am healing the world with my songs

"Now is the time when orioles fly and grasses grow, and the one I love is on their way."

"I know they brave wind and rain, passing sunsets without pause."

"Crossing through crowds, just to embrace you~~"

… … … …

"Rock-a-bye~ Rock-a-bye~ After the Vernal Equinox, it's Grandma's Bridge~"

"Waiting~ Waiting~ Sweetly calling 'Grandma, Grandma'~"

"Quarreling~ Quarreling~ Rice candy stuck on the corner of the mouth, never full~"

"Beautiful~ Beautiful~ Little feet翘啊翘 on the bridge~"

… … … …

"I hope you~ are loved by this world~"

"Tears have someone to comfort~ Tired, someone to confide in~"

"Your wounds~ will be understood by someone~"

"The happiness you want~ won't be too twisted~"

… … … …

"Too late, too late~ You once smiled and cried~"

"Too late, too late~ Your trembling arms~"

"Too late, too late~ No one will salvage you~"

"Too late, too late~ You clearly hated suffocation~"

… … … …

… … … …

Father Wen and Mother Wen were both silent.

They listened to every song of Wen He's, one by one.

Hearing these songs that Wen He sang, their hearts were torn, and tears streamed down their faces.

They recalled all sorts of experiences Wen He had from childhood to adulthood in their minds.

He, who had always been gentle and kind, had never been looked at by them with proper eyes.

Even if his academic performance was excellent, they had never taken it to heart.

Whatever they said or did, he accepted it meekly, never arguing back, never resisting.

From childhood to adulthood, Wen He had never asked them to buy him a toy, nor had he clamored to eat at KFC or the like.

Knowing that his parents worked hard, Wen He had already started helping with household chores at a very young age.

The sensible Wen He had never made them worry about anything.

But they became more and more demanding and excessive towards Wen He.

To the point that they didn't know when they had started treating Wen He as a trash can to vent their emotions.

Looking at Wen Ze… …

Now ten years old, he can't do anything, only clamoring to buy toys, wanting to eat big meals, never considering the hard work his parents put in to earn money.

His grades are also terrible, and he often argues back and throws tantrums.

But they have an almost infinite tolerance for Wen Ze, buying him whatever he wants.

Asking themselves… …

Is this really fair to Wen He?

Regarding this matter, they probably already had the answer in their hearts.

It's just that they had always been afraid to face it, using avoidance to cover up this problem.

They doubled all the affection they owed Wen He and pinned it on Wen Ze.

It seems that only in this way can they escape the condemnation of their conscience.

They gave Wen Ze everything. In the eyes of outsiders, they are the best parents, even a little too doting.

Wen He's songs exposed the darkest side of them buried in their hearts.

A strong sense of guilt plunged them into the abyss, almost unable to breathe.

They took a long, long time to recover.

Trembling, they carefully touched the phone screen.

"Beep… Beep…"

They put their hands together, devoutly praying that Wen He would answer the phone.

After a long while, the call was forced to hang up due to timeout.

"Xiao He… Please… You must answer…" Mother Wen choked with tears.

This call also timed out and was hung up.

After making five calls… …

They had already given up hope, but this time the call was connected.

"Hello, is this Xiao He? Listen to Mom, Mom was wrong, Mom heard the song you sang…"

"I'm sorry, Xiao He… Mom made you suffer… It's Mom's fault… You must forgive Mom…"

"Can you come home? Mom will make you the tomato and egg noodles you loved to eat when you were little…"

"Didn't you always want to go to the amusement park? Mom will take you, wherever you want to go, Mom will accompany you…"

"Come home, Xiao He… Mom will turn over a new leaf, Mom has deeply reflected…"

"Please come back… Mom misses you…"

As soon as the call was connected, Mother Wen kept apologizing to Wen He with tears in her eyes.

But there was no sound from the other end of the phone.

"Xiao He… Are you listening… …?" Mother Wen asked timidly.

"Yeah."

After confirming that the other party was listening, Father Wen also spoke… …

"He, come home. I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have made you lose face in front of so many people."

"I know I have severely hurt your self-esteem. You can hate me, but can we not sever our father-son relationship… …"

"From childhood to adulthood, we have owed you too much. Are you willing to give Dad and Mom a chance to compensate you?"

"He, Dad is begging you, come home. We are all waiting for you to come back at home."

"Our family can't be without you… …"

After Father Wen finished speaking, there was no movement on the other end of the phone. Seeing this situation, Mother Wen continued to persuade him.

The two of them spoke one after another, apologizing, begging, emotionally blackmailing… …

Almost all the methods that could be used were used.

Their silver tongues were almost worn out, but Wen He had not responded in any way from beginning to end.

For a time.

Both sides fell into a brief silence.

"Do you still remember my birthday?" Wen He's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Father Wen and Mother Wen were both stunned for a moment when they heard this question.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Mother Wen opened her mouth uncertainly and said: "It seems to be November 23rd."

"No, I remember it's October 15th," Father Wen quickly said his answer.

"… … … …"

Wen He thought of his February birthday and smiled bitterly.

"You don't really know you were wrong, you're just afraid the money tree will fly away."

After saying this, Wen He hung up their phone and permanently blacklisted them.

… … … …

… … … …

After a long time…

Father Wen, who had come back to his senses, gradually realized.

It turned out that those harassing calls he thought he had received before,

Were all real!

Many well-known large companies such as Penguin, NetEase, and ByteDance had called him.

They wanted to cooperate with Wen He!

You should know that with Wen He's current traffic and popularity.

Any cooperation would earn them money that they couldn't spend in several lifetimes!

They don't even need to cooperate, he just needs to start a live broadcast and hang it there, and money will keep flying into their pockets!

They had seen the recording of Wen He's live broadcast when he became popular.

The dazzling luxury gifts almost never stopped.

Although that Douyin account belonged to Father Wen.

He can take it out now.

But when he thought that Wen He would file a lawsuit against them, one of which included plundering his labor income.

Undoubtedly, they would not be able to get this money in the end.

At this moment… …

Father Wen and Mother Wen completely couldn't hold back.

"Damn it! If you hadn't gone to flip through his phone, how could these things have happened later! You're a failure! What's the use of you!"

Father Wen roared in anger, pointing at Mother Wen.

"What's the use of you! If it wasn't for your slap, would he have run away from home! If you hadn't slapped him again in public tonight, would he have severed his relationship with us!"

Mother Wen let out a hysterical, sharp voice.

"Didn't you start these two things first! If you didn't go through his phone, how would I have slapped him! If you didn't show off tonight, how would I have slapped him! You have to bring him back to me today no matter what!"

Father Wen slammed the table, the violent shaking caused the water glass to fall to the ground with a crisp sound.

"If I knew where he went, would I still need to argue with you here!? It's all your fault! What's the use of yelling at me!"

Mother Wen angrily swept all the things on the coffee table away.

Curses, quarrels, broken sounds… …

Sounds never stopped, endless.
