322 You Decide

"Dad, the cast is on now, and for the next month or so, you won't be able to walk properly. It's uncertain if you can fully recover afterward, how can it be okay? Don't try to comfort me!" Gu Zi was at a loss for words. The person who had brought him here had said the doctor mentioned his father might end up with a limp. How could things possibly be okay?

With that, Gu Zi's tears, which she had been holding back, finally broke free and she wept uncontrollably.

Seeing Gu Zi's tears, Su Le, who had been playing on her own, hurried over to her. She stretched out her little hands to touch Gu Zi's cheeks and said in her baby voice, "Mama, no no!" Gu Zi knew she meant 'Mama, don't cry,' and felt a warmth in her heart.

She picked up her daughter and quickly wiped away her tears, hiding her face behind her small body. She had been unable to hold back her tears earlier.
