I never thought it would all come so quickly, leaving me no chance to regret.
On the phone, Song Zexi was shocked and angry.
"All my life, I knew he was no good. He committed so many unconscionable acts in the past, we never imagined there would come a day when he turned his malevolent claws on his own family."
"I have failed Ayun! I truly feel I have let her down! Alas!"
Facing Song Zexi's remorse, I didn't know how to comfort him.
After a long silence, I finally asked,
"Did you find out anything about my father like you said you would?"
"I did! I have a file here, I've organized it, and then I'll send it your way, make sure you check it carefully!"
"Alright, thank you!"
After hanging up the phone, I zoned out all by myself for a long while.
I've been somewhat out of it these days.
I often see Gu Yuanzhou...
I feel as if he hasn't died, always lingering around me, like an inescapable shadow.
