Gu Hengzhi didn't speak, just sighed as he looked at Gu Yaohui. 'If only it were possible... he wished for hope just as much as anyone!'
Seeing Gu Hengzhi's reaction, Gu Yaohui knew his answer. The light in his own eyes dimmed once more.
This time, when he turned to leave, he didn't look back.
Entering the bedroom, Gu Yaohui went to Gong Shiya's side, where she lay fast asleep on the bed. He sat down, taking her hand and cradling it in his own.
"Shiya, if only we could find our daughter..."
If Gong Shiya had been awake, Gu Yaohui would never have said such a thing. He wouldn't even dare to mention anything related to Gu Ke'er in her presence.
'His Shiya couldn't take any more shocks.'
He didn't even dare mention the little girl Gu Hengzhi had spoken of, the one Fanfan liked, in front of Gong Shiya.
He was afraid. 'What if he gave Gong Shiya hope, only for it to end in disappointment? What if his Shiya couldn't bear it?'
