Zhou Bai took out two tissues and handed them to her.
Director Lin's daughter looked up at Zhou Bai, tears in her eyes falling drop by drop down her cheeks.
Zhou Bai saw a man in his fifties crying in front of him.
I just felt that my head was throbbing.
Zhou Bai rarely sees others crying.
Especially the elderly and girls cannot be seen crying.
It's good now, both are available in one person at the same time.
This absurd feeling made him feel like his whole head was buzzing.
He tried hard to ignore these things.
Then I search hard in my mind for lines that I can use.
"I met your father.
I can see that he cares about you."
Director Lin's daughter took the tissue in Zhou Bai's hand and blew her nose hard.
Then, while sobbing, he said to Zhou Bai.
"You lied to me.
My dad doesn't care about me anymore.
He says every day that he doesn't want to see me.
That's why he avoided me, that's why he left me.
I no longer have a mother, and now even my father doesn’t want me anymore.”
Director Lin's daughter became more and more sad the more she talked about it.
While talking, I kept crying.
Zhou Bai recalled the black smoke coming from the animals in the shelter.
I can probably guess why Director Lin treated his daughter like this.
When mutated to a certain extent, these animals can also become sources of pollution.
Director Lin should have known about this a long time ago.
He has no way to eliminate the source of pollution.
It is also possible that they cannot bear to eliminate the source of pollution.
That's why he chose to let his daughter leave this shelter.
But regarding this matter, I'm afraid his daughter won't be able to understand his approach for a while.
Zhou Bai looked at Director Lin's daughter and asked her.
"So, is this why you turned his asylum into this?"
Director Lin's daughter finally calmed down a bit.
He leaned against the wall and changed from squatting and hugging his knees to sitting cross-legged.
Then he grabbed the pack of tissues in Zhou Bai's hand.
He took out two more sheets and wiped the tears on his face vigorously.
After hearing the question asked by Zhou Bai, he glared at him angrily.
"What do you mean?
You mean, I didn’t run this shelter well, right?”
Zhou Bai recalled how she would lose her temper in the shelter every day, kicking and smashing things.
I really wanted to answer her directly and say, yes.
But after thinking about it, I still feel that the relationship between the two should not be too rigid.
So I could only give up the idea and use a more euphemistic term.
"Didn't you notice?
The animals here, they are not happy."
When Director Lin's daughter heard what Zhou Bai said, she stood up in anger.
"Are they unhappy?
Then you have never seen what they looked like when I came back."
Zhou Bai pointed helplessly at the back of her head, not wanting to repeat the action just now with her.
Director Lin's daughter saw Zhou Bai's actions and immediately understood what he meant.
He stamped his feet angrily, then squatted down again in frustration.
She hugged her knees, turned her head, looked at Zhou Bai, and asked softly.
"Are current shelters really poorly run?"
Zhou Bai nodded honestly.
Then Director Lin's daughter, who had finally stopped her tears, said "Wow" again and all of them flowed out.
"how so?
Why is this happening?
I thought I was running a good business.
I thought I would learn from my father and run his favorite shelter well.
He will come back.
He will still play with me, do my homework with me, and cook delicious dishes for me just like he did when he was a child."
After Zhou Bai heard this, he finally understood why Director Lin's daughter wanted to turn this shelter into this.
Zhou Bai looked at her childish look, but he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
In order to protect his daughter, Director Lin pushed her away hard.
But he didn't know that the relationship between them was simply inexhaustible.
Zhou Bai really wanted to tell her.
Director Lin did not leave her.
He just turned into a turtle and stood by his office door, watching his daughter silently every day.
However, Zhou Bai didn't know if she would believe it or accept it if he told her so directly.
Director Lin worked hard to maintain the dignity, but Zhou Bai felt that it should not be exposed by him.
Zhou Bai finally did not tell the matter.
He looked at the image of the fifty-year-old man opposite him, thinking about what he should say to make her feel better.
Director Lin’s message, item 7.
[If you see my daughter, please tell her for me. She just needs to be herself. Dad loves her.]
Zhou Bai recalled this rule.
So he looked at Director Lin's daughter and said to her.
"You don't actually need to help your dad run his shelter.
You don't need to be him.
He just hopes that you can be yourself.
He actually loves you very much."
When Director Lin's daughter heard what Zhou Bai said, her tears fell as if her thread had been broken.
"Did you lie to me?"
Zhou Bai shook his head at her.
"Have you really met him?"
Zhou Bai nodded to her.
Director Lin's daughter saw Zhou Bai's actions and opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something.
But still didn't say it.
Zhou Bai guessed that she might want to ask him about the location of Director Lin.
But she didn't ask in the end.
The turtle in the shelter is the only animal that was not mentioned in her message.
She must also know that her father disappeared, but this turtle appeared.
Maybe she had already guessed this possibility.
But she never wanted to face this problem.
Zhou Bai did not continue this topic.
He moved his eyes away from her lonely body.
Zhou Bai found Director Lin's daughter, and his real purpose was to get the red lighter into her hands.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai reached into his pocket, took out the lighter, and handed it to her.
"Have you seen this lighter?
Your father, he asked me to bring you this red lighter."
Director Lin's daughter stretched out her hand and took the lighter from Zhou Bai's hand with trembling.
Then the expression on his face suddenly changed from sadness to anger.
"I don't want this broken lighter!
Why did he give it to me when he had never opened a lighter?
He can't make this decision, why should I make it?"
