After Xia Zhichen's life is like a pool of stagnant water, there will be no more fluctuations in the heart lake.

As everyone expected, he was successfully admitted to the law department of a prestigious university. After graduation, he partnered with others to open a law firm. With his excellent professionalism, the firm has done well. The only trouble is his father.

He received a call from the police almost once a week. Because of his father’s dementia, he often went out and got lost. Fortunately, he would put his business card on his father, so every time the police could notify him as soon as possible and let him pick him up. .

Father's condition was good and bad, and sometimes he didn't even remember who he was, nor did he remember that his wife had passed away long ago, so he often asked where his wife had gone.

Xia Zhichen thought that life would be like this, but until one day, he found that as long as his father was worried about that incident back then, he would not be able to live in peace.

One morning, before he left for work, his father called him, "Xia Zhichen,"

"Dad, what's the matter?"

"Are you still in touch with that man?"

Xia Zhichen's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect his father who suffered from Alzheimer's to remember this all the time.

"No, Dad, I've told you many times, I haven't contacted him for many years." Xia Zhichen was telling the truth, and he didn't want to bother Li Xiangwan in the past.

"Can you save me some face? You are already in your twenties. If you don't still think about that man, why don't you find a girlfriend? Let me tell you, I won't accept this kind of thing. How do I explain to my brothers and friends? Thinking that others will say that my son is gay, I feel ashamed," Father Xia suddenly knelt down, "Please, just marry any woman, even if you are pretending , acting is good, "

Xia Zhichen walked away and was about to go to work. Father Xia was indifferent when he saw him kneeling down.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Xia Zhichen was frightened by his father's action of holding a gun, but a thought popped into his mind, and if he shot, maybe he would be relieved.

"Just shoot you to death, it's better than embarrassing me outside," Xia Zhichen originally wanted to snatch the gun, but he didn't expect Xia's father still couldn't bear to hit him, so he aimed the gun at himself. If I die, you will be happier."

"Dad! I'm going to get married." In desperation, Xia Zhichen shouted this sentence. If his father committed suicide, he would never be able to forgive himself in his life.

Hearing this sentence, Xia's father finally stopped his hands. Xia Zhichen rushed over and slowly pressed down his hand holding the gun, "I'll get married right away, for you, I'll get married."

At the age of 28, Xia Zhichen buried himself with his own hands and lived the life his father hoped for.He chose Fang Shilan, a partner of the law firm, as his marriage partner, and she was the most suitable candidate.

Seeing her and Fang Shilan's names on the wedding invitation, Xia Zhichen once thought that she really wanted to bid farewell to her past self and live a new life.

That memory may be the absurdity of youth, and feelings can always be used to, but when his father swallowed his last breath, he found that love cannot be faked.Although the buried Xia Zhichen just hid, did not die, and could not die.

A few days after Xia Zhichen's divorce, Li Xiangwan rode a motorcycle to the door of Xia Zhichen's house in a heroic manner. Xia Zhichen got ready early and went out to meet him. Balloons feel very intimate.

Xia Zhichen walked towards Li Xiangwan step by step, he felt as if time had stood still.

"What a coincidence?" Li Xiangwan raised his eyebrows.

"Come on, you obviously came here specifically to find me," Xia Zhichen seemed to see through everything.

"So you can guess it?" Li Xiangwan rubbed his nose and teased him.

"It's not the first day I know you." Xia Zhichen was a little proud, but also a little bit complaining, "I just thought you would come earlier."

Li Xiangwan was a little shy, "I just want to confirm that I will not interfere in other people's marriages."

Xia Zhichen shrugged, "You can rest assured about this."

Li Xiangwan looked down at his watch, then raised his head again, "So you want to treat me to dinner? Lawyer Xia, I can give you a ride."

Xia Zhichen took the helmet from Li Xiangwan's hand and put it on, and sat on the back seat of the motorcycle. This time, he naturally wanted to hold on to Li Xiangwan's waist, and a happy life began from this moment.

After the divorce, Xia Zhichen would still visit her daughter regularly, and got along more harmoniously after becoming friends with Fang Shilan.

"How do you feel after you are free?" Fang Shilan took a sip of coffee and looked at Xia Zhichen.

"I still think of you often. After all, I ended this relationship selfishly. If you don't live well, I will blame myself." Xia Zhichen felt that she owed her, after all, her youth was delayed.

"Originally, there are some things that can be forced for a while, but not for the rest of my life, and I also met a nice man recently." Fang Shilan had a calm and peaceful expression on his face, and he should be living a good life.

"Oh, then are you planning to get married? I want to pack a big red envelope." Xia Zhichen joked.

"Not yet," Fang Shilan joked, "I still need to confirm whether he likes men or women."

"You're boring..."

"Hahahahahaha..."
