"Father, look at me," Gu Shengyin said.
Old General Fu was a little surprised. After his daughter became sensible, their relationship became very bad. She was rarely willing to take the initiative to start a conversation.
Gu Shengyin said slowly, "Actually, when I was very young, I admired you very much."
Her eyes were a little empty, as if she had returned to a distant childhood. "I remember that you were still very young at that time. Although you were still so serious, I wanted to be close to you. Because I felt that you were very powerful, and other people's fathers couldn't compare to you. "
"Although from then on, you started to make me learn the horse stance, run in the snow in winter in a thin layer of clothes, and drive piles … I felt very wronged, but I still gritted my teeth and persevered. Because when I did these things, I hoped that I could do my best, and then you would praise me. "
"But in the end, I knew that I would never be able to satisfy you. Even if my spear skills could beat all my peers, even if I could exceed the quota set by you every day, I still couldn't satisfy you at all. "
"Because I'm not the heir you expected, because I'm a girl!" Gu Shengyin's eyes seemed to be burning with a blazing fire. It was so bright that it was frightening.
"From the moment I learned about the difference between men and women, I understood my life's fate. When the other girls were in groups, admiring the flowers and reciting poems, calling their friends to go on a cruise, admiring the moon, dressing up beautifully and going out to play, I was working hard bit by bit, wanting to do better. I didn't ask for much. I just wanted you to give me an affirmation and smile at me. Tell me that even if I'm just a girl, I won't be worse than any man! "
"But I didn't!" Gu Shengyin suddenly smiled, but her eyes were red. "I know that you don't like me. Sometimes, when I see the enemy's sword on the battlefield, I even think about not dodging and just letting it cut my body. Why should I bear so much? I can't enjoy the slightest bit of relaxation and happiness in my life. Why should I live for Fu Yunzhen in the eyes of others? "
"But you won, father. The ideas you instilled in me since I was young made it impossible for me to escape and end everything with death, which is like a coward's behavior. I can't let go of the Fu Clan's century-old reputation. I can't let go of the Tianyun Dynasty's border soldiers. I knew that my life would be like this. "
"Enough!" Old General Fu had never thought that his daughter would have such thoughts.
He was strict with her and never smiled. It was never because she was a girl. This daughter of his had always been his pride.
Ever since she had grown up, he had been seeing her less and less. It wasn't because he didn't like her, but every time he saw his daughter's face that resembled his late wife's, the guilt in his heart made him feel too ashamed to face his daughter.
He never knew that this child had so many worries hidden in her heart. He also didn't know that there was such a big misunderstanding between father and daughter.
The huge sorrow in his heart almost made him unable to stand. Looking at his daughter who was stubbornly looking at him, the wall in Old General Fu's heart collapsed.
"I was wrong." He finally spoke the words that had been hidden in his heart for many years.
