One Birth Two Treasures: The Billionaire's Sweet Love Novel - Chapter 4016
Chapter 4016: A Perfect Match (212)
As a husband, he had made that woman wait all her life, but he never turned up. As a father, his daughter had turned against him, and told him “I hate you”. Furthermore, she had intentions to sever the father-daughter relationship.
Gong Shaoying knew that he was guilty. Still, he hoped that she would come back to him so that they could be reunited as father and daughter.
Except that he’d done it the wrong way. He had placed the burden of the feud between the Gong and Mu families on Yun Shishi’s shoulders.
The saddest thing that could happen to a person is to gradually became someone they hate. He had once hated the Mu family, but now, he had become the executioner he hated the most.
“I’m sorry.” Gong Shaoying sighed heavily. He looked up, and for a moment, his looked as though he had aged many years. “I know that you must hate me very much, and I won’t shamelessly beg you to forgive me. However, I’m already very content to see you again…”
Although Yun Shishi remained expressionless, her heart was in turmoil. Grievance, resentment, incomprehension, doubt… Mostly, she felt sad for her mother.
Her lips twisted to force a ghost of a smile. “You know, some apologies are useless, no matter how many times you say it. You feel the same guilt towards my mother, but no matter how many times you apologize, she can’t come back to you. She can’t come back to me. You’ve made her love and wait and hate all her life. Can your apologies ever undo that?”
Gong Shaoying was silent.
Yun Shishi continued, “Once you hurt someone, no amount of apologies can offset the damage. She can’t come back now and neither can you turn back time.”
Gong Shaoying’s eyes throbbed. He hated himself for not having done better, and even more so for making Mu Qingcheng wait for so long.
Yun Shishi inhaled deeply. “Why did you wipe out Youyou’s memory in the first place?”
“I was hoping…” Gong Shaoying paused and explained, “I was hoping he could stay by my side. After all, the Gong family’s blood flows in him. I didn’t acknowledge the Mu family or Mu Yazhe.”
“Well then…” She asked icily, “Can you return my son to me?”
“Hasn’t he returned to you?”
Yun Shishi frowned and her voice was suddenly hoarse. “He did come back to me. But the boy he used to be is gone. The boy is a stranger now, and he will never be the same again.”
She paused for a few seconds, and glared at Gong Shaoying with hatred. “It’s your fault. If it hadn’t been for you, if it hadn’t been for you! Youyou wouldn’t be like this at all! Do you know how much pain he’s in?”
Gong Shaoying didn’t want to argue, but at the mention of Youyou, he couldn’t help mentioning, “If I hadn’t brought him back to the Gong family residence, his condition might have worsened drastically. Are you aware of his physical condition?”
Yun Shishi was stunned.
“His physical condition is not optimistic. If he had not recuperated in the Gong family residence at that time, perhaps his internal organs would have gradually withered.”
Gong Shaoying wasn’t lying about this. This was also why Gong Jie did not hate Gong Shaoying that much.
Gong Shaoying had arranged for Youyou to recuperate in the Gong family residence with the best medical resources he had available. He had spent significant resources just to recuperate his grandson.
