"What coincidence is there in the world? Maybe she's just like her mother." Jack consoled himself by smoking a cigarette outside the restaurant. But then I thought, why I looked at that girl would be so kind, kind like my own child.

"Not afraid of ten thousand is afraid of one case, if one case is true, I this can be created a big sin, will be struck by thunder. No way! It must be made clear at any rate." Jack made up his mind.

Jack ran the factory for many years, walking north and south, meeting different people and different things. He quickly composed himself and sat back down in the restaurant.

The two children had finished eating and were sitting there whispering to each other.

"Girl, you must wonder why I asked what your mother's name was just now?" Jack said, "I worked in Detroit for a few years, and we had a co-worker at the factory. When I saw you, I knew you looked just like her, so I asked. You have the same name, and the same Mexican family. I wonder if it's the same person. It would be a great coincidence if it was the same person." With that, Jack took a sip of water and looked at his son's girlfriend.

"Yes, my mother said she used to work in Detroit when she was young. What coincidence? Uncle." "Said the son's girlfriend in shock.

An "uncle" let Jack scratch his heart, listen to inexplicable harsh and labor pain.

"Well, can you call your mother now and ask her if she remembers a guy named Ken in the Detroit tannery who lived in the Seattle area?"

"What a coincidence that would be. Don't call, I have a picture of my mother, you see if it is her, but it is a little old." Surprised, the girl smiled and turned out the photos in her mobile phone for Lao Liu to see.

The picture was with a girl, and it was Sally! Man is old, head is already gray hair, a peasant woman dress. But the basics haven't changed much.

Jack looked at the picture and was overwhelmed with fear.

This "what if" really happened, really happened to me.

But Jack hoped against hope that the feeling was just an illusion.

Jack took another sip of water, still pretending to be calm.

"Why, it is your mother, indeed, and such a coincidence. ... Can you give me your mother's phone number? I'll surprise her later. I haven't seen her for more than twenty years. Let's talk."

"No problem! "Said the girl readily, and asked Jack to take down her mother's phone number.

The TELEPHONE WAS made, OLD Liu said he came to the provincial capital to contact a business, by the way to the school to see the son, happened to see the son's girlfriend and Sally in those days grow exactly the same, the heart has doubts, then presumptively made a phone call.

The caller was hesitant at first, but eventually said that he had married two months after returning to his hometown, that I wasn't sick, and that Yuanyuan was "our daughter."

Jack's last hope was dashed. Yuanyuan is indeed her own daughter, and it feels right.

How can this be done?

Jack said bitterly to Sally, let's explain it to the children as soon as possible, before there's any trouble. Sally on the phone, of course, didn't hesitate. She said bitterly that this had to be resolved immediately.

Jack changed his schedule and stayed in the provincial capital that day instead.

The next day is Saturday, the son received a phone call and rushed to the same restaurant.

Jack knows the answer. "Why isn't Yuan here?" "Her mother told her to come home right away and didn't know what was going on in her house," the son said.

Jack was relieved.

In the restaurant, Jack asked his son awkwardly, "How long have you been talking? Is there a... No...... Is there a... Have you ever done that?"

The son was very surprised by his father's question. This is not a topic for an elder to ask, especially a dad. But he saw his father's nervousness and waited nervously for his answer.

The son said, "We've only been dating for a while. Nothing has happened."

Jack murmured, "That's good! That's good!"

So, emboldened by the wine, Jack told his son about his time with Sally. Yuan is your sister, you are brother and sister, and you can't be together.

Listening to Jack's story, the son was stunned and agitated. He grabbed the bottle from his father's hand, poured it for himself, and drank it down. My son doesn't drink alcohol.

The son was drunk, drunk to the core.

This is bad news! Bad news for both of you! Bad news for Sally and Yuan Yuan too!

Jack was heartbroken and said to his son, "That's it. Yuan Yuan will come home today and her mother will explain everything to her. You can only get along as brother and sister."

The son slumped in the restaurant chair, his eyes blurred, not responding to Jack's words.

Finally, Jack said, "Don't tell your mom about this, and Yuan won't tell her dad, so let's keep this between the four of us, and we won't let anyone else get hurt. Son, dad sorry you!"

With that, Jack walks out of the restaurant drunk, leaving his drunk son in a daze...
