In an inconspicuous town, Tan Kejun's name used to be a heroic story that everyone sang. This simple migrant worker bravely cut his kidney to save his wife at a life-and-death juncture, and became the guardian of the family and the pride of the town. However, the truth behind this story is shocking.
1. Brave lies.
Tan Kejun and his wife Li Songqin are ordinary migrant workers in the town. On an ordinary summer afternoon, Li Songqin suddenly fell ill and was in critical condition. At this life-and-death juncture, Tan Kejun made an astonishing decision: donate one of his own kidneys to save his wife's life. The whole town was moved by his heroic deeds, and Tan Kejun was regarded as a true hero.
But behind this decision lies an untold secret. In fact, Li Songqin's disease does not require a kidney transplant. All this is just a lie woven by Tan Kejun in order to win respect and sympathy. In this fictional story, he becomes a great hero, and his wife becomes the tragic figure of this story.
2. The Price of Lies.
As time passed, Tan Kejun began to enjoy the benefits of this lie. His status in the town grew, and people came to him with respect and sympathy. But behind all this, there is his neglect of his family and the evasion of responsibility. He became addicted to gambling and alcoholism, and his life gradually spiraled out of control.
His two children, Tan Yaxin and Tan Bin, were in great pain because of their father's actions. Tan Bin was forced to drop out of school to work to support his family. Although Tan Yaxin is young, she can also feel the heavy burden of her family. Tan Kejun, on the other hand, gradually lost himself in false glory.
3. Exposure of lies.
Finally, during an unexpected medical examination, Tan Yaxin discovered the truth: both of her father's kidneys were alive. This shocking discovery threw the whole family into chaos. Tan Yaxin and Tan Bin couldn't believe that the father they had always admired turned out to be a maker of lies.
Faced with the questioning of his children, Tan Kejun finally could not continue to maintain this lie. He had to admit that it was all a story he made up to gain sympathy and respect. Not only did the revelation destroy his reputation in the town, but more importantly, it shattered his family and left scars that could not be healed.
Epilogue. 
From a revered "hero" to a ruined **, Tan Kejun's story is a reminder of greed, lies, and consequences. The heroic image he made up turned out to be the greatest tragedy of his life. This story teaches us that true courage is not how to show in front of people, but how to stand up for truth and honesty in the face of adversity.
