Chapter 64

The day after Christmas, Da Dao got on the plane and flew into the sky with a "boom". Feng Feng stood outside the square of the airport, looked up and watched the plane disappear into the sky, silently I wish you all the best, and hope that Oshima will have a happy future.

At the airport, he met Da Dao's fiancé who was picking him up. His name was very long. Feng Feng must have not remembered it. He only vaguely remembered that the boy had thick black curly hair and deep eyes. Also very gentle.

Even if he seemed to be a little hostile towards him, Feng Feng shook his head, probably because he was supercilious.

He turned and walked towards the gate of the airport, where Atobe was.

Oshima's departure did not cause a big commotion. Although this girl was fierce, she had a straightforward personality, and many girls still liked her.

However, they don't have time to bother with this now, because the New Year is coming soon, and their winter vacation has also begun.

The Japanese still attach great importance to the lunar New Year on January [-]. They will wear new clothes and hang carp streamers on this day, visit relatives and friends, and exchange lucky money. It is very lively.

Although Feng Feng has always celebrated the Chinese New Year, since he is in Japan, he went to do as the Romans do, and cleaned up the house with his uncle, removing the old and replacing it with the new.

Uesugi wiped the floor with a rag, smiled and asked Feng Feng, who was squatting on the other side arranging the flower branches: "Fengfeng, is your Chinese New Year more lively than here?"

Feng Feng stopped what he was doing, thought for a while and replied, "Well, it's very lively."

So, he began to tell Uncle Uesugi about the Lunar New Year in their place, the bacon and hot pepper strings hanging outside the house in the north, the bustling temple fair and Laba porridge in the south, the red couplets pasted in front of the door, and the fireworks and firecrackers one after another , New Year's Eve after the New Year's Eve vigil after the endless phone calls to wish...

What he said really fascinated Uesugi, but in fact, when he was in China, he and his mother’s New Year’s was not so lively, and he described it on TV and in novels.

"Chinese people really love excitement!" Uesugi admired. He is also a lively master, so he said happily: "Fengfeng, your Spring Festival should not be far away, right? This year, uncle will accompany you!"

"I heard that Chinatown is very lively until the Chinese New Year, and there is also a lion dance. Uncle will take you there then!" Uesugi patted his head and promised very formally.

Feng Feng stared at him blankly, thinking about other things.

He has been here with his mother for almost a year, but in fact he has been in contact with his uncle for far more than a year.As early as three years ago, after Uesugi Hideichi went to his cooperative company in China and met Liu Fang, who was alone with a child at that time, he began his uninterrupted pursuit.

During this period, he often communicated with Liu Fang's only son, Feng Feng, trying his best to find out the child's preferences, because he was the core part of capturing Liu Fang.

In conscience, Uesugi has fulfilled all the responsibilities and obligations a father should have, and he is fully worthy of Feng Feng's father.

But he couldn't yell that "Dad" for a long time. He had a faint feeling that if he opened his mouth, it seemed that a corner of his heart would collapse.

The place that belongs to the father and can never be touched will thus disappear.

Feng Feng had hoped more than once that his father might just go on a trip, and that one day he would fall from the sky and appear in front of him. Although he knew it, it was just a delusion.

Therefore, he repeatedly hypnotized himself: I have a father, I have a father, I have a father...

This seems unfair to Uesugi. He still doesn't get rewarded for his dedication, but he still treats Feng Feng as his own son without any ambiguity.

Feng Feng's throat was a little tight, and a voice urged him in his heart: Try it, try it, maybe... It's not that difficult to call out, you know, he has been waiting for this sound for a long, long time.

Uesugi was still wiping the floor with his head down, wondering if it would be better to eat fish with pickled cabbage tonight, or the tomato beef that both Feng Feng and Liu Fang loved.

Feng Feng was still struggling, this person was clearly in front of him, but Jean seemed to be strangled by the throat, unable to make a sound.

dad……

Uesugi turned his head abruptly, looking at the boy behind him in disbelief.

It turned out that Feng Feng really yelled out so softly in the midst of entanglement. Although it was inaudible, Uesugi still heard it.

His pupils shrank slightly, he grabbed Feng Feng's arm excitedly, and asked in a low voice: "Fengfeng, what did you... call me just now?"

Feng Feng was embarrassed, he didn't expect that he would actually yell out without knowing it. It's really a bit embarrassing to face Uncle Uesugi at this time.

"Fengfeng? Call me again, okay? Huh?" Uesugi pulled him eagerly, hoping that he had heard correctly just now.

"Father." With the first sound, the second sound became much easier, Feng Feng called again cautiously.

This time Uesugi could hear clearly and clearly, he stayed there for a while as if dreaming, and then hugged the child in front of him, so excited that he was about to cry.

More than four years!

What he had been looking forward to since the first time he saw this child had come true at this moment!

A great sense of joy hit his heart, which made him a little incoherent with excitement, "Fengfeng, you are such a good boy... You know, uncle——no, it's dad. I've been waiting for it for a long, long time..."

"Father..." Feng Feng yelled again in a low voice, clutching Uesugi's sleeves tightly, and his eyes began to turn sore.

Uesugi jumped up and ran towards the kitchen, ready to have fun with Liu Fang who was preparing the New Year's dinner. He could drink a few bottles of shochu tonight!

At this moment, the phone in hand rang.

"Hello? Atobe?" Feng Feng stood up to answer the phone.

"Ah, who else can there be besides me?" Atobe's voice sounded the same, and Feng Feng could completely imagine his current awkward appearance.

"Is Bali fun?" Feng Feng was afraid that he would laugh, so he quickly changed the subject.

The Atobe family seldom spends the New Year in China, and they almost always take advantage of this free time to travel around. This year, their destination is the rumored Bali Island.

"It's pretty gorgeous." Atobe sat on the large carved wicker chair, crossed his legs and called him, with a calm tone.

"Ah That's good."

Feng Feng said softly.

Then, the two fell silent like this, suddenly not knowing how to answer the following topic.

After a while, Atobe suddenly spoke again: "Next time, I will bring you with me."

Feng Feng was startled, squinted his eyes and said, "Okay!"

The two of them didn't speak, and a few more minutes passed——

"Atobe, I miss you."

"..."

There was a long silence on the other side of the phone, without answering him.Feng Feng began to talk to himself: "I called my uncle 'Dad' today, and he is very happy, and he is still celebrating with my mother in the kitchen."

"It turns out that what I was struggling with before is actually not that serious at all."

"What to do, I suddenly feel very uneasy now, if one day I suddenly find out that everything is my own dream, these are all fake..."

Feng Feng squatted under the window of his room holding the phone, muttering to himself, regardless of whether the person on the phone was listening or not.Human beings are so strange sometimes. When he has nothing, he will look forward to everything, but when he really gets these things, he will shrink back timidly.

afraid of losing.

Feng Feng is just a 17-year-old boy with an immature heart. The changes in his life this year have had a great impact on him. The world that was originally either black or white suddenly flooded with many other colors. Apart from novelty, it is inevitable Worry about gains and losses.

Atobe listened to him patiently without disturbing him.Feng Feng, finally learned to reveal the things in his heart to him. This is the result of his hard work for so long, and he is very satisfied.

"What are you thinking about so much? You just need to know that at least you are happy at this moment, and nothing else matters, ahhh" Atobe waited until Feng Feng completely calmed down before saying such a sentence.

"Even if you lose everything when the time comes, the most you can do is to keep it as it is, as I have already said, and I will accompany you to the end."

Feng Feng suddenly laughed, "I don't know what happened today, I'm so fragile all of a sudden, maybe I should read a book."

"Would you like to listen to music?" Atobe said.

"Okay." Feng Feng didn't expect Atobe to propose so suddenly, so he couldn't help nodding.

Atobe walked to the piano, gently lifted the cover, put the phone on it, took a deep breath, and moved his fingers lightly, a string of smooth notes began to float out.

It was a piece of music that Feng Feng didn't know the name of, with a soothing rhythm and melodious tune, like a gentle hand soothing his restless heart.

My dear

don't be sad for life

Don't hesitate for the unknown fate

Those who love you will feel sad for your frown

So

do not be sad

I'm always by your side

Feng Feng leaned against the corner and listened quietly. He knew that what Atobe wanted to say but couldn't say was actually contained in this voice. He was expressing his comfort to himself with the sound of the piano.

Atobe is indeed a kind and gentle person.

Feng Feng smiled silently on the other end of the phone.

At the end of the song, Atobe picked up the phone again, "What do you think of this song?"

"Well, I like it very much. But, does it have a name?" Feng Feng asked.

"It's just my uncle's composition, no need to name it." Atobe said disdainfully, in fact, only he knows how long it took him to compose this song, just for Feng Feng.

Feng Feng laughed, "Atobe is really amazing!"

"Hmph, my uncle has always been so gorgeous!"

The night outside the window suddenly brightened, Feng Feng stood up, and it turned out that the New Year's fireworks started to be set off in the square not far away.

Colorful fireworks bloomed in the night sky, gorgeous but short-lived, illuminating the dark sky, Feng Feng looked up, those beautiful fireworks were reflected in the black pupils.

Atobe was also listening to the lively fireworks exploding in the air with him on the other end.

"Atobe, Happy New Year!" Feng Feng said softly into the phone.

"Happy New Year."
