He burst into tears.
“What’s wrong?”
Song Changlin immediately hugged her and patted her back gently.
“Mother, why don’t you like me?” Gu nianjia asked as she cried.
Hearing this, song Changlin knew what was going on. Without asking any further, he coaxed Gu nianjia into the house.”Stop crying. Come in.”
As he held her in his arms, Gu nianjia sat down on the sofa and began to cry in his arms.
Ever since she was young, she had cried countless times because of her mother’s indifference to her. This was the only time she dared to cry out loud.
Because her mother was a strong woman, everyone said that they had never seen her cry. She felt that her mother definitely did not like children who cried.
So she didn’t dare to cry and couldn’t cry.
Song Changlin allowed Gu nianjia to cry for a while.”Jiajia, stop crying,” he said when he realized that Gu nianjia’s voice was hoarse from crying.
He knew what was going on, but he didn’t say any extra words of comfort.
In his world, the truth was the truth. No matter how cruel or painful it was, there was no excuse to escape.
The only thing he could do was to make up for it and heal it.
“Uncle, does everyone dislike me?” Gu nianjia looked up at song Changlin with tears streaming down her face as she began to sob.
“There are many people who like you,” song Changlin replied with a smile.
His tone and voice were as gentle as ever.
He paused and stared into Gu nian
jia’s confused eyes for two seconds before continuing,””I’ve never expected anyone to like me. For the people I care about, I only care about silently giving and don’t care about the return. For the people I don’t care about, I don’t need them to like me.”
“Other people might think that my identity is worthless, laugh at me, or even humiliate me, but none of this is important. What’s important is to find the value of your existence and to like yourself.”
Gu nianjia looked at song Changlin in shock.
His last sentence repeated in her mind. She had to find the value of her existence and like herself.
Did she ever like me?
Ever since she was young, no one had ever called her stupid. Song Feifei had never led her classmates to bully or humiliate her.
Although she would scold him back fiercely every time, her heart would still be affected. Sometimes … Just like now, she hated herself.
He felt that he was very useless.
Even her own mother didn’t like her.
But was her experience worse than her uncle ‘s?
When her uncle first entered the song family, she didn’t really remember what he was like. She only remembered that from the time she could remember, she often heard people call him an illegitimate child, and he was often bullied and humiliated by her uncle’s family.
At that time, she was also at her grandmother’s house. Although she was not well-liked, she still wanted to fit into the circle. Therefore, she tried her best to please song Feifei and the song family.
In the end, no one liked her, and she was still like an outsider when sh
e was with them.
Xi Xia gave song Feifei a beautiful rabbit as a gift. They sat around the stone table in the courtyard and played with the rabbit. Song Feifei liked the rabbit very much.
However, song Feifei did not allow her to look at them and chased her away. She sat in a corner and listened to their laughter. She was so disappointed that tears welled up in her eyes.
Back then, Lin Yiqian was seven years old while song Changlin was thirteen years old. He was already a teenager. That was the first time Lin Yiqian had seen his face.
Because no matter if it was at home or at school, he had always kept his head down.
