Gu Dajiang gasped. “I… I’m not dreaming?”
As he spoke, he grabbed Gu Yundong’s hand with great force.
He stared at Gu Yundong, afraid that he would blink and the person in front of him would suddenly disappear again.
Gu Yundong slowly squatted down and let him hold her hand. He smiled and said, “Yes, you’re not dreaming. Father, I’m in front of you. I’m fine. You found me.”
Gu Dajiang’s eyes widened as he listened to her seriously. His lips trembled slightly, and his hand that was holding her trembled slightly too.
Slowly, this trembling became more and more intense, just like the torrential emotions in his heart.
Gu Yundong gently put her other hand on it and said gently, “Father, do you hurt anywhere? You’re injured. The doctor said that you can’t move around.”
Gu Dajiang finally blinked, but his voice was hoarse. “Yundong, is it really you?”
“It’s true. It’s actually true.”
Gu Dajiang suddenly grinned. In the next moment, tears flowed out and slowly slid down his face to the pillow.
“I’m fine. I’m fine. I’m just happy. I’m… happy.” His voice was choked with emotion.
After searching for so long, he was almost in despair.
When the planks of the Xin family hit him and he was thrown out on his last breath, the only regret in his heart was that he could not find his wife and children. He did not know if they were still alive or if they were waiting for him in heaven.
He did not expect his daughter to be by his side the moment he woke up. He was satisfied.
His wounds didn’t hurt at all. He was glad. He’d never been so glad.
Gu Yundong quickly wiped his tears with a handkerchief. The corners of her eyes could not help but tear up. Her eyes turned red. “I’m happy too.”
Gu Dajiang grinned like a child.
But in the next moment, he suddenly raised his head slightly and looked behind Gu Yundong.
However, there was no one there. His hand could not help but tremble slightly. He wanted to speak, but he did not know how to.
Gu Yundong quickly knew who he was looking for. She smiled and said, “Mother and Yunshu and Yunke are all fine.”
Gu Dajiang was stunned. His gaze landed on her again.
Gu Yundong continued, “Back then, I saw that the Qing’an Prefecture was in chaos. I was afraid that I could not protect my mother and younger siblings, so I brought them to the Xuanhe Prefecture. Now, they have settled down in Yongfu Village under the Xuanhe Prefecture. They are all at home, waiting for us to return.”
After a pause, she said, “I’m sorry, Father. I didn’t fulfill my promise to you.”
“No, you did the right thing. You did the right thing.” Gu Dajiang’s voice became lighter. Knowing that his family was safe, he seemed to be in high spirits. “There’s nothing more important than your safety. I didn’t think it through back then. I didn’t expect the city gate of Qing’an Prefecture to be tightly shut, causing chaos. I…”
“What about you?” Gu Yundong did not want him to continue blaming himself. She changed the topic and asked, “Why did Father come to Wanqing Prefecture? Actually, I went to Qing’an Prefecture to look for you. I even met Bao Chunhua and his wife. They said that they had seen you and saw you leave the city gate with their own eyes. Unfortunately, they didn’t know where you went after you left. I even went…”
She paused and did not tell him that she had been to Gu village.
She would take it slow. So many things had happened in Gu village. She had to tell her father, but she did not want to say it yet.
