The system takes the poor cub to find his father

Chapter 118 The Old Butler Who Wants to Atone

"Hey, how's it going? Have you found out?" Su Weiyu asked anxiously, while frantically taking out tissues from her bag and wiping the stains on her face like crazy. She wiped too hard, so that her face was red, but she seemed to be unaware of it and kept wiping, as if she wanted to wipe away all the anger and dissatisfaction with the Su family.

It was that little bastard again! That little bastard was simply her destined nemesis. Ever since he came to the Su family, her status in the Su family had been declining. Even the housekeeper who used to be smiling and friendly to everyone now dared to openly give her a cold shoulder, which really made her extremely angry.

Ever since she had a big fight with that idiot Xiao Tao last night, she immediately asked someone to investigate Su Mo.

I don't know where this little bastard came from, but he actually dared to bully her.

"Ms. Su, I found what you asked me to check." A man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"The child named Su Mo was picked up by President Su from the old city. The child has his own adoptive parents. It was President Su who accidentally saw Su Mo being beaten by his adoptive father on the street, rescued him and brought him back to the Su family."

"Su Mo's adoptive father is a well-known local gangster. He drinks and gambles every day, and often beats Su Mo."

"Oh! So that little bastard was actually a little beggar before." Su Weiyu thought bitterly, Su Bingzhi actually picked up a little beggar from outside and brought him home. Is it because he can't have children, so he just picked up a child to raise? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sneer,

But then he frowned and thought it was unlikely. Su Bingzhi shouldn't be the kind of person who would be willing to raise a child for someone else.

"Did you find out who the mother of that little bastard is?"

"We haven't heard of that yet. We just heard that the child was adopted by the couple from a distant relative, but people around them don't believe it and think they may have bought the child secretly."

"Because currently Mr. Su's assistant has also sent people to keep a close eye on the child's adoptive parents. We can't get close to them easily, for fear of being discovered by Mr. Su. So we can only investigate secretly."

"Okay, okay. I know you've been working hard. I'll transfer the investigation fee to you later." Hearing the other party complaining about his poverty to her, Su Weiyu seemed a little impatient. Her brows were furrowed and her tone became impatient as well.

"You guys continue to try to contact the little bastard's adoptive father, but make sure you don't get discovered by Su Bingzhi's people."

Presumably, the parents who lost their child are extremely worried about their missing child at this moment. She doesn't mind "kindly" helping the poor parents.

She is such a "kind" person! Su Weiyu threw the tissue tightly clenched in her palm away.

"Drive," she ordered coldly.

The driver quietly raised the front visor when Su Weiyu answered the phone. He muttered to himself that Su Weiyu's temper was getting worse recently.

He sighed softly, but he knew that he was just an outsider to Su Weiyu now, so he didn't dare to say much. He just drove away from the Su residence silently.

On the other side, not far from the Su residence, there is another villa of almost the same size as the Su residence.

Gu Lingtang walked in slowly from outside with steady steps.

His gray hair was combed meticulously and neatly tied back, revealing a broad and full forehead, which made him look energetic. However, the knife-like wrinkles on his face seemed to be deep grooves left by the years, each of which told of the vicissitudes he had experienced. However, his eyes were still bright and energetic, and his deep gaze was filled with endless majesty.

At this moment, he no longer had the kindness and friendliness he had in front of Su Mo.

Unlike the Su family, the Gu family does not have many servants running around. Here there is only an old housekeeper who has followed him for many years.

Gu Lingtang was used to doing everything by himself and didn't like too many people coming and going in the house. Therefore, apart from the daily cleaning, the rest of the time the Gu house was mostly quiet, even dead silent.

Seeing Gu Lingtang coming back from exercise, the old butler hurried to greet him.

"Master, breakfast is ready. Do you want to eat now?"

"Well, put it up."

Gu Lingtang looked at the cloudy eyes of this old friend who had been with him for many years, and the way he staggered as he walked, and his eyes fell into deep thought.

"Xiao Lin has mentioned to me several times that he wants to take you home to live with you in your old age. I think what the child said makes sense. It's time for you to enjoy your retirement."

Xiao Lin is the son of the old housekeeper. Because his father is old, he has persuaded him several times to go back to his hometown with him, but the old housekeeper has never agreed.

The old housekeeper skillfully placed the meals for Gu Lingtang one by one on the table that he usually liked, without saying a word, as if he had not heard what Gu Lingtang had just said, and was just concentrating on the task at hand.

"Old Lin." Gu Lingtang sighed and stretched out his hand to stop the old housekeeper's busy movements. "Stop busying yourself. Sit down too."

Then, the surroundings fell into an eerie silence. The old butler sat opposite him all the time, his lips tightly shut, not saying a word. After a while, when Gu Lingtang thought that this time it would end like the past, the old butler who had been silent for a long time finally spoke slowly. His voice was dry and full of endless worry, and his words instantly made Gu Lingtang's eyes red.

"What will you do if I leave?"

The old butler raised his cloudy eyes and looked at the resolute old man opposite him.

"Master, I'm worried about you!" The old butler called him by the name he used when he was young, his voice trembling with deep concern.

In the eyes of outsiders, the young master has always been the high and mighty president of the Ancient Martial Arts Association. He is the man of his word and no one does not feel awe and respect when hearing the name Gu Lingtang.

But only he knew how much pain this extremely determined young master was enduring deep in his heart.

Ever since the Madam, the young master and the young lady were kidnapped by their enemies 25 years ago, there has been no news of them. The young master has been living like a walking corpse ever since.

Finding them may be the young master's only obsession in this life.

It's all my fault. If I had been more alert when I went to pick them up, they wouldn't have had no news for so many years.

The guilt and uneasiness in his heart tormented him all the time. How could he abandon the young master alone and live the rest of his life in peace?
