Mystery Collection 2

The night was dark, only the yellow moon was shining faintly. The cold wind blew past, making Gu Siqian's cheeks ache. He stood under the dim streetlight, looking at Gu Zhongping who was about to travel far away with moist eyes.

A slight smile appeared on Gu Zhongping's face, and he raised his hand to hold Gu Siqian's shoulder. The once arrogant and impetuous boy finally grew into a man who could shoulder the responsibilities.

Gu Zhongping never thinks that his love for the two children is biased, but it is undeniable that his affection for Gu Siqian is stronger. He treats adults to urge him to grow up, and works with him like his peers. However, at the moment of parting, he seemed to see Qian'er's childhood appearance again from Qian'er's face, bright and lively but arrogant and domineering, and would cry aggrieved after being scolded, jumping up and down in the room to avoid him.

Even after having a youngest son, his humble son is still childish and likes to be jealous with his younger brother, but occasionally, like a real older brother, he will protect the naughty younger brother behind him.

All kinds of memories seem to be stuck in yesterday, but the children are growing up quietly. The accident that year changed the lives of many people and forced those children to mature overnight.

It was Qian'er first, and now it is finally Tingxi's turn.

Gu Zhongping didn't want to leave a sad mood at the moment of leaving, but the corners of his mouth were stiff but he couldn't smile.He sighed for a long time, and his throat couldn't help sobbing: "I should go, and I may never come back after I leave. Take care of yourself and remember your mission."

Gu Siqian raised his face and forced back the tears. He was no longer the child who could cry bitterly. There were still many things waiting for him to complete. He showed a sour smile and said with difficulty: "There are already too many people If you die in that incident, others can sacrifice, and we are no exception, Dad, don't worry, I will take care of myself and my brother, take care of your health."

Gu Zhongping took advantage of the darkness and left here without saying goodbye to Gu Tingxi.

He was born as a human being, and he has fought for his beliefs until now. He has no regrets in all of this, but he has never protected his family, whether it is his wife or his children.

This battle will not end because of him, but he never doubts that there will be countless people like him fighting for fairness and justice after him, and there will always be light after the night.

Gu Tingxi slept soundly while hugging the quilt, and the moment the bed curtain was pulled open, the dazzling sunlight shone into the room, making his eyelids twitch.

Gu Tingxi quickly buried his face in the quilt, and said in a muffled voice, "No school, no breakfast, no bed."

The side of the bed sank a little, Gu Siqian patted his body through the quilt, and said with a smile: "Then sleep a little longer, I will ask you for a few days off, and I will go to City B with me later."

Gu Tingxi pulled down the quilt a little bit, his head was still not clear, and he asked vaguely, "Why are you going to City B?"

"Cousin Ah Jing is pregnant and invited us to visit her home."

Gu Tingxi yawned and was about to nod when he suddenly froze and asked, "Didn't Sister Jing say to mourn for uncle for three years? Why is she pregnant? Isn't she still married?"

Gu Siqian shook his head helplessly: "It should be soon, don't mention the funeral after you go, lest she won't come down."

Gu Tingxi lifted the quilt and got out of bed slowly, and muttered: "Of course I know, am I such a person who likes to make mistakes? By the way, will Dad come with me? He hasn't been to Uncle's house for several years, right?" .”

Gu Siqian shook his head with an unnatural expression: "The company has been quite busy these days, and he flew back early this morning."

"Why didn't you tell me, I'm sleeping and you wake me up." Gu Tingxi felt a sense of loss in his heart, and he got closer to his father, and he left in a blink of an eye, as if he was empty, without telling him when he left.

Gu Siqian patted his cheek and asked with a smile: "Then do you want to apply with you next time?"

Gu Tingxi remained silent, with depression written all over his face.

Gu Siqian hugged his shoulders and sighed softly.

Gu Tingxi turned his head and looked at him suspiciously, and asked hesitantly, "Brother, don't you just sigh like this? Are you in a bad mood?"

Gu Siqian coughed and stood up, "You are with Han Chen every day, how can I be in a good mood?"

Gu Tingxi laughed, and hurriedly slipped into the bathroom to wash up.

After squeezing out the toothpaste, he called Han Chen with a toothbrush in his mouth. After a few words of nonsense, he started to get to the point: "Brother Chen, I'm going to City B for a few days. Didn't you say to investigate the case? When will I leave?"

"It will be a few days later, why do you suddenly want to go to City B?"

"My cousin is pregnant, my elder brother and I went to see her." Gu Tingxi had just finished rinsing his mouth when he heard Gu Siqian impatiently knocking on the toilet door.

Gu Tingxi quickly hung up the phone after saying a few more words. He opened the toilet door, looked at Gu Siqian whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and said slowly, "Are you in a hurry to go to the toilet? Go!"

Gu Siqian glared at him: "It's not big or small."

He turned around and walked out, Gu Tingxi rushed towards him within two steps, jumped onto his back, and said with a smile: "I'm not old or young, brother, you are old or not, don't throw me down haha .”

"Come down for me!"

Gu Jing's current house is only two hours' drive away from here. After Gu Tingxi washed up and went downstairs, Datou had already driven the car to the door.

The Gu family has been in business for generations. Gu Zhongping’s father gave birth to two sons. Gu Zhongping is the youngest son and an old man. He is 30 years younger than his elder brother Gu Zhongyao. A few years ago, Gu Zhongyao died of illness and left behind his daughter. Gu Jing and an adopted son, Gu Jing was 35 years old at the time, and offered to be a mourner for her father for three years. Now that the news of her pregnancy suddenly came out, Gu Tingxi was shocked and couldn't help being happy for her. After being alone for so many years, if they can start a family, it can be regarded as a sustenance.

"I don't know what Sister Jing's boyfriend looks like." Gu Tingxi said looking at the scenery outside the window.

Gu Siqian didn't take his eyes off the computer screen, and said casually after hearing the words: "I heard that she is a few years younger than Ms. Jing, and her looks are second best. Treat her well."

Gu Tingxi nodded: "Gender is also second, just treat me well."

Gu Siqian pursed his lips, closed the laptop, and turned to stare at him: "Do you have to give me some trouble?"

Gu Tingxi curled his lips and muttered, "You don't understand."

"Then tell me what I don't understand?"

Gu Tingxi smiled embarrassedly, and said in a low voice, "When you like someone, you always want to mention him. Just say anything."

Datou drove the car well, and suddenly interjected: "Young master is not like this."

Gu Tingxi laughed, and asked the big head: "What's wrong?"

The big head glanced in the rearview mirror, turned a blind eye to Gu Siqian's warning eyes, and said stupidly, "Never mention the one he likes."

"Big head, get out of the car for me."

The big head said puzzledly, "Eldest young master, you haven't arrived yet."

Gu Siqian: "..."

Gu Tingxi couldn't help laughing, and asked the big head again: "Then who does my brother like?"

Gu Siqian was so angry that he wanted to strangle Datou to death. Fortunately, Datou was smart this time, and shook his head, "I don't know either."

Gu Tingxi thought that the big head was just talking casually, so he didn't ask any more. Seeing that Gu Siqian was about to start working again, he grabbed the laptop and muttered: "Play with me for a while, you've used it all morning, take a rest. "

Gu Siqian pinched the center of his brows wearily, rolled his body down a little, closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Big head, drive hard, don't talk nonsense."

The car arrived at the place where Gu Jing lives now on time at noon. It was a small three-story bungalow with a small yard at the entrance. The yard was surrounded by rose flowers. Now it was out of season. The yard was bare except for one The grown-up Teddy heard the cars barking non-stop, which finally brought a little excitement to the empty yard.

Gu Jing heard the movement coming out of the house. She has just passed three months of pregnancy, and her winter clothes are heavy, her stomach is not obvious. She is 37 years old this year, her skin is no longer tender and fair, and there are faint wrinkles around her eyes, but with the As she grew older, she became more gentle and gentle. Gu Jing was originally a gentle woman, but in the past few years, she has gradually become more peaceful, making people feel inexplicably wanting to be close.

Gu Jing is 17 years older than Gu Tingxi. Even though Gu Tingxi is already young, she still looked at Gu Tingxi as if she was looking at a child. She opened her hands and hugged Gu Tingxi who got out of the car, and asked with a smile: "On the way? Are you tired? I made grilled chicken wings, you can eat two first."

When the uncle was still alive, Gu Tingxi and Gu Jing often had the opportunity to meet. Although they have seen less in recent years, they still have a lot of phone calls, so it doesn't seem unfamiliar if they haven't seen each other for a while.

Gu Tingxi still felt a little miraculous when she thought of her pregnancy. When she was sitting on the sofa eating chicken wings, her eyes were still bulging and staring at Gu Jing's belly.

Gu Jing caught his gaze, giggled, and asked, "Do you want to touch my stomach?"

Gu Tingxi shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, you have to be careful when you're pregnant, don't do housework, and ask a few more nannies to help."

Gu Jing pursed her lips and smiled: "It's not as serious as you think. It's still young and I can't feel anything. I live with your brother-in-law, so there are so many housework. Let's talk about it in a few days, by the way. , Siqian, how are you doing these days? Are you busy with the company's affairs?"

Gu Siqian smiled and shook his head: "The company's affairs are not too busy, but my brother is too upset."

Gu Tingxi bumped him with his elbow: "Don't tear me down."

Gu Jing smiled in the corner of her eyes: "You brothers have such a good relationship, I feel happy seeing it, but Siqian, shouldn't it be time for you to start a family too? Do you have a girlfriend?"

Gu Siqian shook his head: "Let's talk about it in a few years."

Gu Jing took a sip of hot water and asked with a smile, "Are you still thinking about your little cake?"

Gu Siqian flusteredly waved at Gu Jing: "No, no, don't talk about it, when will we eat?"

Although Gu Tingxi was confused, she was excited. She quickly pushed Gu Siqian away, sat next to Gu Jing, and asked with a smile, "What kind of cake, Sister Jing, please tell me about it."

"Little cake, that's..."

Gu Siqian quickly interrupted her: "Sister Jing, let's eat first, when will brother-in-law come back?"

Gu Jing laughed haha: "Don't say it, don't say it."

Gu Siqian breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his nose.
