Yuexue's calling out "Dad" left both adults in the hospital room stunned.
Pei Yansi was even more surprised than Shen Heyu; this was the first time he had heard the word "Dad" from his daughter's mouth, and it was with a cautious inquiry.
However, her caution inexplicably left a sour taste in his heart.
What kind of life had she been living all these years that she had to be so careful even in the presence of her own father?
The more he thought about it, the more choked up Pei Yansi felt inside.
He held his daughter in his arms and carefully wiped her mouth with a tissue after she had eaten, saying, "It's me. Dad is here to see you."
As Shen Heyu stood by, watching him act this way, she felt somewhat dazzled. Pei Yansi had never shown such a gentle side before.
When was the last time she had seen him this tender?
It was when Bai Sheng'er was injured, and he had applied medicine to her wounds in front of her; Bai Sheng'er was the apple of his eye at that time.
