Gu Shaocheng coaxed him softly, "In a few days, be good, Zun Zun, and go to sleep."
Zun Zun sniffled, holding Dad's hand with one hand and Mom's hand with the other, bringing them together, and said troubledly, "Alright then, I'll wait a bit longer, but oh, I really can't wait. Dad..."
The childish voice calling out the last two words really tugged at Gu Shaocheng's heart.
"Hmm?"
"Dad..." he continued to drag out the call.
"Sleep."
"Dad, is it because I said my wish out loud on your birthday that it didn't come true? It must be that way, or why would Sheng Sheng have to leave?"
So sad, it was all his fault. If he had known, he shouldn't have said the wish out loud.
This almost became a thorn in Zun Zun's heart. From that day on, whenever he made a birthday wish, he never said it out loud again. Even when a woman once voiced her birthday wish, in an impulsive moment, he gave the girl a hard slap, almost breaking his romance; but that is a story for another time.
