Not long after the call was made, Liang Ruizhe rushed to the hospital and took Shen Yu away.

　　Gu Yingyi did not show up and deliberately avoided the scene where Shen Yu was taken away by Liang Ruizhe.

　　He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would stop Liang Ruizhe from taking people away.

　　Gu Yingyi used great self-control to suppress the pain in his heart. He couldn’t bear to see Shen Yu’s hysterical appearance, so he had to let Liang Ruizhe take him away.

　　He said nothing, and Liang Ruizhe asked nothing. He just silently carried the unconscious Shen Yu out of the hospital.

　　After Liang Ruizhe took Shen Yu away completely, Gu Yingyi returned to the ward where Shen Yu had stayed and stood there silently for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.

　　…………

　　A week after Shen Yu was taken away, even after leaving Gu Yingyi, he still couldn’t sleep well every night. He was haunted by nightmares all night long. Liang Ruizhe had no choice but to take Shen Yu to the hospital again.

　　The doctor’s diagnostic suggestion was to use medical hypnosis to hypnotize Shen Yu so that he could forget the past as completely as possible.

　　Liang Ruizhe did not inform Gu Yingyi. Although Gu Yingyi found out about it, he did not stop it. He tacitly agreed to Liang Ruizhe’s actions.

　　After the hypnosis ended, Liang Ruizhe took Shen Yu away again without saying a word. Gu Yingyi seemed to be in a shadow where he could never appear in front of Shen Yu. He could only stare at him from afar and sadly.

　　The hypnosis was very successful. Shen Yu no longer had nightmares all night long and began to slowly return to normal.

　　Lu Qian, who accompanied Shen Yu, said, “Uncle Liang treats my brother very well. He makes him happy every day. My brother’s illness has improved a lot. We even played on the swing together.”

　　It was Gu Yingyi who asked Lu Qian to accompany Shen Yu more often. He did not let a private detective monitor Liang Ruizhe. It was not because he trusted Liang Ruizhe, but because he felt that he seemed to have lost the qualifications to accompany Shen Yu and make up for him.

　　Liang Ruizhe was truly kind to Shen Yu and had never done anything to hurt him, but in Shen Yu’s heart, he had already been sentenced to death and his crime was unforgivable.

　　After Lu Qian finishes school, the driver will take him to where Liang Ruizhe lives. Liang Ruizhe rents a house in City A and will not return to his hometown in the short term.

　　Every time Lu Qian came back, he would bring many photos of himself and Shen Yu on his phone, as well as photos that Liang Ruizhe took of them when they were playing together.

　　Lu Qian was a smart boy, and he knew that Gu Yingyi wanted to see Shen Yu but couldn’t for some reason, so after taking the photos, he would ask the driver to take him to a photo studio, have all the photos developed and then bring them back to Gu Yingyi.

　　Gu Yingyi took the photo, patted Lu Qian’s head, and said with relief: “Very good, go to bed early.”

　　Lu Qian looked up at Gu Yingyi, the adoptive father who had once been so high and mighty in his eyes, now had an untidy beard, dark circles under his eyes, and a strong smell of cigarettes.

　　He clutched his small schoolbag tightly and glanced at Gu Yingyi with some worry.

　　Not long after he went out, he saw through the crack of the study door that Gu Yingyi was collecting all the photos one by one in a thick album and flipping through them page by page.

　　As he watched, he started to cry, but the sound of his crying was suppressed and sad.

　　Then he saw Gu Yingyi open the drawer, grab a handful of candies from it, peel off the candy wrappers, and stuff them into his mouth one by one.

　　Because Shen Yu said that eating candy can make people feel better.

　　This was not the first time that Lu Qian saw Gu Yingyi so heartbroken. He knew that after his brother left, Gu Yingyi was like dead, unable to recover, and locked himself in the study every night.

　　Every time he came back from Liang Ruizhe’s house with photos of him and Shen Yu, he could see a trace of human vitality on Gu Yingyi’s depressed face.

　　He lowered his eyes. Being too young to understand the reason, he gently closed the door and returned to his bedroom.

　　Time flies, and the hurried years have changed four seasons. In the blink of an eye, Lu Qian has grown one year older.

　　During this year, Lu Qian would go to Liang Ruizhe every weekend to accompany Shen Yu, and would also bring back a few photos for Gu Yingyi to inform Gu Yingyi of Shen Yu’s recent situation.

　　Gu Yingyi’s thick photo album is already filled with photos from this year.

　　Lu Qian is in the second grade now. This weekend is a little special because it is Shen Yu’s birthday. Lu Qian made two clay dolls in the handicraft class as gifts for Shen Yu. The clay dolls are one big and one small, one is himself and the other is Shen Yu.

　　When Zhang Yang went to see Shen Yu, he became familiar with Lu Qian. Today, they went together to celebrate Shen Yu’s birthday. Fortunately, Zhang Yang went directly to Gu Yingyi’s house to pick him up.

　　Before going to Liang Ruizhe’s house, Gu Yingyi stopped Lu Qian, who was carrying his schoolbag and preparing to leave with Zhang Yang. He was holding a palm-sized wooden bear doll in his hand. The doll was not carved delicately, so Lu Qian looked at it for a long time before recognizing that it was in the shape of a bear.

　　When Gu Yingyi handed it over, Lu Qian saw the many cuts on Gu Yingyi’s hand caused by the carving knife. They were so numerous and dense that it was unknown how many times he had been cut.

　　Lu Qian knew that Gu Yingyi’s right hand was injured, and he usually even used his left hand to hold chopsticks. It was conceivable how much time he spent carving it with only one hand.

　　Zhang Yang could tell at a glance how precious the wood was.

　　There is a faint fragrance on the wood, which really makes people feel relaxed physically and mentally. Such high-quality wood for carving is hard to buy in City A nowadays.

　　Scarcity makes things valuable, and a small piece can be sold for millions.

　　Gu Yingyi did not tell Lu Qian how precious the wood was, but just asked him to bring it to Shen Yu, “Don’t say I made it, don’t mention me in front of him…”

　　”I understand, father.”

　　Zhang Yang, who was standing aside, saw his belated expression of affection and thought that Gu Yingyi was being sarcastic and funny and that he deserved it. Until now, he still had no good feelings towards Gu Yingyi.

　　Thinking of what Gu Yingyi had done to Shen Yu, Zhang Yang couldn’t help but sneer, “Belated affection is cheaper than grass. Mr. Gu should know this truth, so don’t show us such a pitiful face. I don’t even want to forgive you, let alone Shen Yu.”

　　Zhang Yang sneered after he said this.

　　Gu Yingyi didn’t say anything, his eyes were gloomy and no longer as sharp as before, he didn’t even say anything to refute Zhang Yang’s words.

　　”Brother Zhang Yang.” Lu Qian was young after all, and didn’t quite understand the hidden meanings between the adults. He called Zhang Yang to signal him to stop talking, because Gu Yingyi’s face did not look good.

　　Zhang Yang’s words were like an invisible sharp blade piercing his heart. He put his fist to his mouth and coughed a few times, and the familiar cramping feeling in his chest came again.

　　After a year of overwork and alcoholism, his body could no longer bear it. His heart began to ache from time to time, and he had to carry medicine to relieve his heart pain.

　　He covered his chest with his hands, looking a little ugly. Lu Qian ran over to support him, “Father, are you okay? I’ll ask Uncle Liu to come over.”

　　Gu Yingyi was in great pain. He clenched his chest tightly and waved to Lu Qian to indicate that it was not necessary. Lu Qian took out a small medicine bottle from Gu Yingyi’s pocket, poured out a pill from it and stuffed it into his mouth.

　　When the effect of the medicine took effect, the heart-wrenching pain finally eased, and Gu Yingyi stood up staggeringly with a pale face.

　　Zhang Yang watched coldly the whole time.

　　”I’m fine, go ahead.”

　　Lu Qian was not too relieved, “Father…”

　　”fine.”

　　Although Gu Yingyi insisted that he was fine and staggered back to the study, Lu Qian still called Assistant Liu before leaving and asked him to take Gu Yingyi to the hospital.

　　Because my father has been having chest pains more and more frequently recently.

　　Only after Assistant Liu agreed did he feel at ease to go to Liang Ruizhe’s house.

　　Liang Ruizhe prepared a large table of sumptuous dishes, and Zhang Yang bought a big cake.

　　Under Liang Ruizhe’s careful care, Shen Yu slowly came out of the shadow of the stimulation, and was visibly getting better day by day.

　　However, Shen Yu, who had been holding broken pillow with him all the time and treating him as his child, no longer held him, as if he knew that it was just a dead object and not his own child. However, Liang Ruizhe had observed that Shen Yu showed no signs of recovering his memory. Apart from having nightmares at night, he still didn’t remember who Gu Yingyi was, and he didn’t even remember Zhang Yang.

　　The only thing from the past that he accepted was the Shiba Inu, which was raised in Liang Ruizhe’s home. He remembered that the Shiba Inu was a dog he raised, but he did not remember what happened later.

　　Liang Ruizhe was a little worried about him at first, but later he slowly felt relieved when he saw Shen Yu looking normal and getting to know Zhang Yang again, and there was no abnormal behavior.

　　No one mentioned the three words “Gu Yingyi” in front of Shen Yu again. Everyone knew about Shen Yu’s past and kept silent about it.

　　In one year, Shen Yu’s right eye completely recovered. The vision with his left eye was still a little blurry, but he could see some things roughly.

　　Lu Qian gave Shen Yu his gift and the wooden sculpture of the little bear carved by Gu Yingyi.

　　Shen Yu was naive. He thought they were all gifts from Lu Qian. He was so happy that he placed the clay figurine and the somewhat ugly wooden bear sculpture as treasures at the head of his bed.

　　Liang Ruizhe looked at the wood sculpture silently without saying anything, but he had already guessed who had sent it.

　　They had a very happy meal and finished eating the cake. The driver came to pick up Lu Qian. Shen Yu was tricked by Zhang Yang into drinking two sips of fruit wine and became drunk unconscious. Zhang Yang was having a great time and also drank too much. He lay on the table and felt drowsy.

　　Liang Ruizhe worked hard and first carried Shen Yu back to the room and took good care of him before coming out to check on Zhang Yang.

　　”Mr. Zhang, do you need to stay here for one night?” Liang Ruizhe said kindly. Seeing Zhang Yang’s condition, the car definitely could not be driven. He came alone and did not bring a driver.

　　Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhang Yang raised his head drunkenly, “No… not here, I’ll call the driver to pick me up.”

　　He spoke haltingly, then took out his cell phone from his pocket, unlocked it for a long time before opening the address book. He originally wanted to find the driver’s number, but his finger directly pressed the top number.

　　”Hello.” The phone rang for a while and then was connected. A young voice that did not belong to the driver came from the receiver. The voice was very pleasant, like a cool spring flowing through Zhang Yang’s ears, making him feel numb.

　　But Zhang Yang, who was drunk, did not recognize the owner of the voice, “Come, come and pick me up, I’m here, I’m here…”

　　Liang Ruizhe spoke appropriately, “Fenglin Community, 202.”

　　”Oh! Fenglin Community, two…two-two.”

　　The person on the phone asked: “Have you been drinking?”

　　However, the next second Zhang Yang hung up the phone and fell asleep on the table. Liang Ruizhe helped him to the sofa and cleaned up the mess on the floor.
