On the beach.
Zhang Ye would call everyone his daughter.
His parents quickly pulled him into the villa. "Zeqing took the child to the water sports and took a speedboat. Your dad and I were afraid of seasickness, so we didn't follow them. We'll probably be back in a while. Kid, don't mess around on the beach. Those who don't know might think that you're a human trafficker."
His father said, "After being in prison for more than three years, your mom and I thought that you would change and become more mature. But it turns out that you're still the same."
Zhang Ye said, "Aiya, I'm just anxious to see the mother and daughter."
His father said, "There's no point in being anxious."
Zhang Ye urged, "Why don't you give Zeqing a call?"
His father said, "She didn't bring her cell phone with her."
Zhang Ye wandered around the living room and would look out every once in a while. "What do you think I should say when I see Old Wu and the child?"
His mother said in amusement, "You're asking us?"
Zhang Ye was worried.
There were so many things to say, so many things to say. Now that it was time for them to reunite, he felt extremely nervous. In the past three years, Zhang Ye had been looking forward to this day every single day. He had imagined this scene countless times, thinking about how he would say the first thing he would say when he saw Old Wu.
— I'm back?
— Thank you?
— How are you doing?
How should he say it?
What should he say?
Suddenly, Zhang Ye looked to a corner of the living room.
"Eh, there's a piano in the villa?"
"It's probably from the hotel. Every villa has one."
"Hai, I haven't touched the piano in a long time."
…
Half an hour later.
On the beach.
A beautiful woman was holding the hand of a three-year-old girl as they walked over slowly.
There were other parents with their children on the beach. When they saw the little girl, they were extremely fond of her.
"Yo, this child is really pretty."
"Yeah, she's like a porcelain doll."
"Big Sis, is this your child?"
"You guys have to be careful. It's very dangerous at the beach now."
"That's right, that's right. Just now, a man almost took my daughter away. It was broad daylight."
"Aiyo, I also met that lunatic. When she saw my child, she called her daughter. I was so scared. In the end, her father heard it from afar and got angry with me. He dragged me to ask who the child belonged to and even wanted to do a paternity test. Tell me, how can I go to reason with her? What the hell is this?"
"Hahahaha."
Wu Zeqing wore her sunglasses and said with a smile, "Alright, we will take note too."
The little girl took this opportunity to let go of Wu Zeqing's hand. She squatted on the beach and clumsily wrote and drew with her tiny hands. It looked like she was writing her name. It was obvious that she had just learned how to write, but she was not very good at it. The word "Zhang" was written crookedly and looked very ugly.
Wu Zeqing patted her head. "Let's go. Grandpa and Grandma are waiting for us."
The little girl didn't listen and insisted on writing.
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "I'll get your dad to teach you how to write later."
Only then did the little girl raise her head. "Can my daddy write?"
Wu Zeqing smiled. "Does he know how to write? Of course he knows. Your daddy's calligraphy is the best in the country. Your daddy's semi-cursive is the best in the world. Mommy can't compare to him. When he comes back, I'll get him to teach you. He'll definitely be better than Mommy. "
The little girl said, "Oh. When will Daddy be coming back?"
Wu Zeqing held her hand and said, "Soon."
The little girl asked again, "Is Daddy really awesome?"
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "Yes, Daddy is awesome. He's the best host in China, the best calligrapher, mathematician, and Go master in the world."
The little girl said in a childish voice, "Even the kindergarten teacher often talks about my daddy."
Wu Zeqing led the child towards the villa. "Your father's legend is everywhere. Be it in the hosting field, music field, calligraphy field, mathematics field, or Go field, no matter how many years have passed, your father will always be a page in their stories that they can never escape from. If you want to hear more about your father's past, Mommy will slowly tell you about it. His story is so much more than a year and a half."
Up ahead, they were almost at the villa.
At this moment, the sound of a piano suddenly rang out.
Several men and women who were sunbathing on the beach looked in the direction of the song.
"Eh, who's playing 'Legend'?"
"There's still people who listen to such an old song?"
"But it's indeed a classic."
"It's a classic. It's from an era."
"Yeah, it's from an era."
The song played again.
"Just because I caught a glimpse of you in the crowd.
"I've never been able to forget your face."
"I dream of meeting you again one day."
"From then on, I began to miss you alone."
Wu Zeqing had a nostalgic look on her face.
The little girl also cried out, "It's my daddy's song, it's my daddy's song."
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "Yes, it's the song that Daddy sang for Mommy when Daddy and Mommy got married. He's only sung this song once in his life, but the impression he left on me that day was really deep. It was the first time Mommy saw your daddy cry. Mommy cried that day too." Then she pulled her daughter into the villa's yard. "Your grandparents probably missed Daddy too, so they played Daddy's song."
They pushed open the door.
Zhang Ye's parents were standing there.
Wu Zeqing said, "Dad, Mom, are you playing the song?"
Zhang Ye's mother smiled.
After saying that, Wu Zeqing was also stunned. This was because the moment she came in, she realized that the piano music was not coming from the television or the computer. The television was not turned on, and neither was the computer. The piano music felt like it was right next to her ears. It was very, very close!
Wu Zeqing was taken aback. She immediately stared at the corner of the living room!
The little girl was also stunned. She looked dumbfoundedly at the man who was sitting at the piano.
"When I miss you, you're on the horizon.
"When I miss you, you're in front of me.
"When I miss you, you're in my mind.
"When I miss you, you're in my heart."
Zhang Ye was playing the piano and singing at the same time. His eyes were already red!
"I'd rather believe that we had a promise in a past life.
"The love story of this life will never change again.
"I'd rather spend my life waiting for you to find out.
"I've always been by your side, and I've never gone far."
Wu Zeqing smiled and then cried.
Because of his excitement, Zhang Ye's hands were trembling as he played the piano.
"I'd rather believe that we had a promise in a past life.
"The love story of this life will never change again.
"I'd rather spend my life waiting for you to find out.
"I've always been by your side, and I've never gone far."
He had only sung this song once in his life, and it was on the day of his and Wu Zeqing's wedding. This song contained too many stories of Zhang Ye and Wu Zeqing, as well as too many feelings between the two of them. Today was the second time that Zhang Ye had sung it. There were so many things that he wanted to say, but they were all contained in this song. Everything that Zhang Ye wanted to say was contained in this song.
In prison.
At the research institute.
At the air force base.
No matter where Zhang Ye was, his heart had never left, and he had never gone far.
