âGun Gun, what are you doing?â Da Bao knocked on the door and crossed his arms. âDonât touch Xiao Beiâs personal belongings.â
âTheyâre not. Itâs a letter for me. There are letters for you here too. Brother Da Bao, come and take a look.â Gun Gun raised a pile of letters.
These were all written by Su Bei a long time ago. She had planned to tell Lu Heting that he should give each of them a letter on their birthday every year. However, she didnât expect that Gun Gun would read them now.
Da Bao suspiciously took a letter and opened it. Gun Gun was still reading the contents with great interest. He was happily reading the words written by Su Bei. But after he began reading, he realized he didnât recognize many of the words.
In contrast to Gun Gunâs happiness, Da Baoâs intuition had always been the most accurate.
He quickly read a few lines and felt that something was wrong. Why did Bei Bei write so many letters for when they turned five years old to when they became eighteen? Why did she think that she didnât have time to write these letters in the future? Couldnât she write them on their birthdays?
Gun Gun also frowned. âDa Bao, what does this word mean? How do you pronounce this?â
Da Bao was already reading the letter for when he turned eighteen. As expected, he saw a line at the end that said, âDa Bao, Iâm really sorry that Xiao Bei didnât keep her promise to grow up with you. I hope youâve thought things through and forgiven me. Fortunately, youâre already eighteen years old today. Youâre an adult now. You can take care of yourself from now on. Iâm relieved. I really hope that the whole world will treat you kindly.
âYouâre so good, and the world will definitely treat you well. Today, because youâre an adult and have grown up, itâs time to tell you the truth. I wasnât able to accompany you in your childhood because I had gastric cancer. I was left without a choice. But I know that you, Gun Gun, and Daddy⦠â
Da Baoâs eyes turned red, and his hands that were holding the letter trembled.
âBrother Da Bao? Brother Da Bao?â Gun Gun realized that something was wrong with Da Bao. At that moment, he had a bad feeling. Did something happen to Bei Bei?
Someone knocked on the door.
Da Bao was stunned, looking as though he did not hear anything.
Gun Gun went to open the door with a frown. Lu Weijian was standing at the door with a bunch of food and toys in his hands. As soon as the door opened, he picked Gun Gun up and said, âBaby, Uncle is here! Look, I brought so much delicious food and toys. Uncle is so kind, right?â
Gun Gun pouted, and his round face was full of sadness.
âWhatâs wrong? Who bullied you? Tell me, Iâll beat him up right now!â Lu Weijian had never seen Gun Gun so sad before.
âBrother Da Bao, Brother Da Baoâ¦â Gun Gun couldnât express what he was thinking right now. In short, Brother Da Bao was very sad right now. That intense emotion had gotten to him and made him think of Bei Bei, which made him cry.
âDid Brother Da Bao bully you?â Lu Weijian thought that it was impossible. Da Bao was just like his brother. He was mature, sensible, and intelligent. How could he bully a child?
But thinking about how he himself was always bullied by his brother, it suddenly seemed possible.
