"I stood at the bridge, holding your hand while you cried all the way. I told you, 'I'm useless, I can't protect you. Mom and Dad are gone, and the two of us are so lonely living like this. I asked you, why don't we just jump together and go find Mom and Dad.'
"At that time, we had nothing, you were injured, and I didn't even have money to take you to the hospital. Back then, I really wanted to jump into the river with you, thinking it might be better to reunite with Mom and Dad, so we wouldn't have to live so hard."
"You were only six years old then. You held onto me, crying, saying you didn't want to jump, you said it didn't hurt and you would get better. You said you wanted to live, even if you had to become a beggar, you wanted to live with me."
"Qingqing, back then, you were braver than me to live on, so when the doctor said you didn't want to live, I never believed it."
