What a pity to miss the rebirth

……

In the torrential rain, he ran around, and finally found the little figure in the small park closest to his home. The child was curled up and hiding under the bushes, drenched in rain, like a pitiful bird. Xi's drowned chicken.

Liu Yingnian's heart softened all of a sudden, and the accumulated anger disappeared.

He walked over, bent down and said, "Get up, go home."

The little child trembled when he heard his voice, and immediately raised his head. Although he didn't cry, he looked at him with red eyes as if crying, "Bad guy!"

Liu Yingnian sighed softly, stretched out his hands, softened his voice and expression, and said softly: "Okay, I'm a villain, okay? Come on, Uncle Liu will take you home."

The child looked at him, then stared at the pair of big hands stretched out in front of him for a while, and finally stretched out his small hands in response.

Liu Yingnian picked up the child, touched it with his hands, and it was soaked inside and out.

The child held his neck tightly, twitched his nose and whispered in his ear: "It was you who insisted on coming to me, so I went back with you."

Liu Yingnian, who had already figured out part of the child's personality, followed his words and said, "Yes, yes, my little ancestor."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, almost blurring his vision. He walked home quickly step by step with the child in his arms.

The first thing you do when you get home is take a shower.

After adjusting the temperature and putting hot water, the little man was stripped and thrown in, and then he went to find two sets of clean bathrobes, one big and one small, and put them together on the hanger in the bathroom.

Liu Yingnian rinsed himself in the shower to warm himself up before entering the bathtub.

"Why are you running?"

While shampooing the little man's hair and washing his hair, Liu Yingnian began to question him.

This kind of matter must be asked clearly, otherwise he will not be able to bear it again next time, it is too much trouble, and the neighborhood is full of people looking for someone in the heavy rain, even when he had a small conflict with Li Xianghua before, he has never been so embarrassed.

It's okay if you don't mention it, but when you mention it, the little man gets angry, and complains with his round eyes open: "You want to adopt another child."

Now Liu Yingnian knew where the problem was.

When he came back from the kindergarten with his children after work, he met a neighbor mother and son who lived on the same floor. We went upstairs together. It happened that the neighbor’s child was about the same age as the child, and was also pink and tender. The young mother next door Let the child call him, and the child called "Hello, Uncle Liu" in a childlike voice, and he boasted that the child is so sensible and cute, and his mother jokingly said, "How cute are you? I don’t know if it’s noisy at home, Mr. Liu will give it to you if he likes it.” Like this, he also replied jokingly, “Okay, then I’ll take it away.” Like this, the problem appeared unexpectedly Yes, when the neighbor entered the house, he also took the key and opened the door, only to find that the child was gone when he lowered his head.

"That's just a joke, it's not true. I don't intend to adopt other children." Liu Yingnian quickly clarified his misunderstanding, and added, "You are enough for our family to have one child."

"..." The little man still looked at him dubiously.

After the hair was washed and the body was soaped, he let the child sit in the water and used a towel to help the child wash off the foam. The child suddenly said, "You...do you still want to be my father?"

There is a reason for this.

When he first brought the child home, he originally thought that he was destined not to have children anyway in this life, so he would just pick up a cheap son, and this little one would take his surname from now on.In the end, I mentioned this matter to the child and asked him if he would like to call him daddy. The child didn't answer, but looked at him with his mouth tightly shut.

He thought, that's right, the child just lost his father and mother, and suddenly he was asked to call someone he didn't know father.He didn't force the child, temporarily dispelled the idea, and wanted to wait a few years for the child to grow up before mentioning it.

Unexpectedly, the child picked it up first by himself.

Liu Yingnian was taken aback, looked at the child, the corners of his eyes slowly rolled up, "Think about it."

Liu Yingnian will never forget the child's behavior in the next moment.

He leaned over and kissed him on the face, his voice was soft, and he called him a little shyly: "Dad."

Liu Yingnian was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to realize that he was excited, and felt that every cell in his body was boiling.

It turns out that there is such a small, soft and fragrant doll calling him "Daddy". Surprised, joyful, excited, the position of the heart is touched by unknown emotions, and it is beating.

The little life in front of him is willing to form a father-son relationship with him...

dad……

What a nice noun!

Liu Yingnian's nose became sore, he wiped his face, a warm and bright smile appeared on his young and handsome face, his eyes were full of watery transparent light.

Later, it was not until many years later that he realized that the "Dad" that year was actually just a way for the kid to worry about him going to adopt someone else.

……

Do not underestimate children.

Children's instincts can always prompt them to do many things that adults can't imagine.

This is also the law of survival in nature.

In order to protect themselves, keep their territory and vested interests, the weak will always subconsciously make very subtle moves as if they have some kind of talent, which often shocks and impresses the strong and prying eyes.

Liu Yingnian's gaze never left from the moment he saw the child.

He froze there as if he had been tapped, dumbfounded.

The pictures of the time when I was with the children in the past flashed into my mind one by one, from just seeing the child to his growing up year by year, from a small child to a school-age child to a slender boy to a handsome young man, one after another The pictures of Ruxue fell from the memory piece by piece, lying between the two people, one big and one small, like a dream that never passed away last night.

Liu Yingnian's mood was like a tide, he was churning violently, the corners of his eyes were about to swell, and he felt a pain in fits and starts.

He suddenly had a vain fantasy——

If he brought the child over and told him that he had a long, long dream about the two of them, an almost real dream, in which he and his whole life were included, I don’t know if it could be regarded as Those in the past were really just a dream, all his imagination...

"Baby."

An almost unfamiliar man's voice came along with the approaching footsteps. Liu Yingnian came back to his senses and saw a tall and handsome man walking over. The man's facial features felt indescribably familiar. , so familiar that it made his heart tremble.

Hearing the familiar voice, the little baby quickly raised his head, his eyes lit up, and he saw the person coming and called out: "Dad!"

The young man picked up his son, keenly aware of his son's different dependence, "What's wrong with the baby?"

The little boy turned his head and glanced at Liu Yingnian, then turned back immediately, buried his head on his shoulder and rubbed back and forth, and complained, "There is a strange uncle."

Liu Yingnian heard a crisp sound of "crack", and the images that just flashed through his mind were cracked like brittle glass, and then shattered all over the ground with a "wow".

The young man glanced at Liu Yingnian, his slightly indifferent eyes stayed on him for two more seconds, a dark light flashed in his eyes, he sat down instead of walking while holding his son, and he didn't ask Liu Yingnian whether he agreed or not, so he just He just sat down on the seat opposite him.

"What's your name, sir?"
