She walked closer to the table. In front of Wesley was a piece of
Chinese art paper on which he had written a poem.
"In the northern forest lived a pack of wild geese, with feathers as white as snow.
Against the icy wind, they flew toward the south, wing to wing. As the rain poured and broke her wings, she couldn't do anything but mourn her lost dreams. Waiting in the gust of the howling wind, he vowed to never forsake or leave.”
Wesley's handwriting was impeccable.
However, Erica's attention was focused on the poem.
“Dad, you know this poem too?"
It was then that she remembered having asked Matthew to investigate
Can't Do Anything. She decided to ask him when she retired to her room for the night.
"Yes. Do you still remember that year when you stained Matthew's shirt, and your mother asked you to buy him a new one?"
"Yes, I do. Why do you ask?" She was confused. What did this poem have to do with Matthew's shirt?
Wesley put down his brush and smiled.
“I know this poem because I overheard Matthew recite it that year. It was so meaningful and poignant that I Learned it by heart.”
Later, he'd found that the poem was about love at first sight.
“Could it be that Matthew... knows this poem? Is all this a coincidence?’ Erica wondered.
Since she didn't react the way he'd hoped, Wesley continued, "As you seem to be in a bad mood, I'll tell you a secret that should make you feel better."
“What secret?"
Carlos and Wesley often teased each other about their children. During one such conversation, Carlos had divulged to Wesley that Matthew's
Weibo username was Can't Do Anything. This seemed like an appropriate time to tell Erica.
"Matthew's Weibo username is Can't Do Anything,” he said.
“What?!" Erica was stunned when her father told her. She couldn't believe what she heard. ‘Matthew is...Can't Do Anything?’
Wesley couldn't imagine the impact of this revelation on his daughter
"Yes. I know that you are unaware of this. In fact, I didn't know either. It was Carlos who told me. Now, do you understand how much
Matthew Loves you? You're always disobedient and make him angry!"
Erica was at a loss for words. She stood still with tears in her eyes as she thought about what her father had said. A long time passed before she could speak.
