"Choose a birthday gift for my little Nian'an. If she is still by my side, she will definitely use this cute little pacifier. She must be very cute, waving her little hands and looking at the world blankly.

She must be the most beloved child in this world, if my little Nian'an is still alive. "

I opened the box in my hand, and what lay inside was indeed a delicate little bottle and pacifier.

Nian An...

Is this the name that man gave me?Before the name was given to me, I was living outside.

I continued to look at the next one, and this box was his second-year-old gift for me.

There is still a card hanging outside, although it is a little yellowed, but the writing is clear.

"My baby is two years old, but she is still not by my side. Little Nian'an at this age must be able to talk. She can call her father and mother like a grandma. Her appearance has changed. She must be able to talk. Like An An, gentle and beautiful, our daughter must be very like her, my little Nian An, Dad misses you."

"Xiao Nian'an is three years old. I don't know if she has gone to find An'an. They may have been watching me in the sky. How cute is three-year-old Nian'an? She can walk and hug me. I will also secretly eat the candy at home when I am not paying attention. My little Nian’an, don’t steal it. Dad has prepared a box of big pink candies for you, but you have to promise Dad that you can only eat it every time. Eat one."

"My little Nian'an is four years old. She loves beauty. She will definitely like to wear cute little skirts. Girls like princesses. My little Nian'an is my princess. Little Nian'an, Dad has prepared a lot for you. You must like the beautiful dress. Do you want to be the brave Princess Bell, or the beautiful Snow White, or shall we be the wise and beautiful Queen Elsa? No matter what you want to be, Dad will always be with you. "

"Before I knew it, my little Nian'an was five years old. Time passed so quickly. Every time it was little Nian'an's birthday, my father would cry for a while, but in front of little Nian'an, my father couldn't do this. Nian'an has prepared a castle. If you can see it, you will definitely cry out in surprise. Dad specially bought the castle at Disney. My princess should live in such a place. Little Nian'an, Dad hopes you are alive. No matter what, Dad I want to find you too."

"Six years old! Little Nian'an started to go to school. My father chose several stores before finally choosing these beautiful school bags. My father is not fond of foreigners, but I think Japanese-style bags are very suitable for my little Nian'an. Little Nian'an What school will I go to? I don't want Xiao Nian'an to be too tired, as long as she is happy, it is better than anything else."

……

"Xiao Nian'an, you are 17 years old. It's time for the college entrance examination. After so many years, my little Nian'an has not returned to me. I think you have grown into a beautiful beauty. Those who chase you should Many, I can't imagine my little Nian'an getting married, please don't marry a man like me, my daughter, I feel sorry for you."

"Nian'an, you're gone. Dad can't call you little Nian'an anymore. When you grow up, you can go anywhere by yourself. Dad wants to give you a pair of beautiful high-heeled shoes. That's your adult gift, your college entrance examination wish What is it? Singer? Movie star? Writer? Director? My Nian An must be outstanding, she will have a different life path."

……

"Nian'an, 25 years have passed. Dad has no news of you. Dad doesn't know how you are. Dad is very tired looking for you. Dad is wondering if you are really gone. Dad regrets it. Why can't you protect me? Daughter, I think you must hate Dad too, Dad will make amends, and will find you and Mom as soon as possible."

"I'm 26 years old. Dad has learned many languages. Have you heard the tapes? Dad thinks it's old-fashioned, but romantic. Dad, who is tone-deaf, can sing, which is really surprising. Read Ann, does it sound good? Do you laugh when you listen to it?"

"How can there be a father like me? I'm so bad. I haven't been able to be with her on Nian An's 27th birthday. The cake on the table has dried up and can't be eaten anymore. The younger son laughed at me. I have been so persistent every year, but even though he said so, he still helped me find it together, Nian An, are you married? Have you had a child? What a father wants to see most is his daughter when she gets married. "

"Father is so worried. Will the person you marry be a bastard like Dad? I finally understand how Uncle Mu felt at that time. I took away his favorite daughter, and now someone is taking away my beloved daughter. I I've never seen her, and I haven't had time to hug her."

"This is God's punishment for me, making me lose Nian'an to make up for it all."

"Nian'an, my father's health has become very poor. If I can't see you alive, my father will go to Anle as soon as possible, and go to another world to find you and mother."

"Nian'an, wait for Dad, okay? Dad will go early, definitely."

I put down the last card and looked at the empty boxes and presents all over the floor.

27 pieces, no more, no less.

Those words add up to thousands of words, and that seemingly taciturn man can actually say so many words. It turns out that he is not good at expressing, he is just shy.

How has he lived for more than 20 years?
Those characters are well written, did you practice calligraphy on purpose?I was looking for that tape, put it in that retro Walkman, and listened to the content coming from it.

The harsh tone and serious tone made me feel the man's mind and the scene at that time. He held the microphone in embarrassment, holding a note in Chinese translation, and finished singing shyly but loudly. That happy birthday song.

And at the end, I heard the man's crying voice.

"My little Nian'an, where are you? Dad has been looking for you. Dad built you a big castle, which is full of toys that girls like. Little Nian'an, do you like it? It doesn’t matter if you don’t like it, Dad will help you buy other ones, if you want stars and moons, Dad will find a way to get and pick them for you! As long as my little Nian’an comes back, Dad will do anything!”

I pressed pause and sat on the ground with no expression on my face.

Compared to the name Nian'an, I prefer Bai Qingqian.But Nian An... how meaningful it is.

He was missing his mother, he was missing his mother, so he bestowed his love for her on the name he gave me. I sat with my arms folded and glanced at the gifts everywhere.

Men don’t like shopping the least. How does he go out every day to choose gifts for me, and there are no duplicates, each one has a special meaning.

Is this paternal love?
Is this the paternal love he deliberately made up for?

Is he suffering every night too?He also cries when he thinks of me... Since he loves me so much, why didn't he be brave in the first place.

I felt pain in my heart, and tears came out suddenly.

In my mind is the picture of him calling me Qianqian that day. I think in his heart, he must want to shout out loudly, "You are my Qianqian and my little Nian'an. Dad finally found you. In this life , Dad will never let you leave my side..."
