Rejecting the Big Shot

033

Yi Zhongshen naturally saw that photo taken many years ago.

But even though he has seen it countless times, when he sees the child on Gu Sheng's mobile phone screen, the child is so cold that he curled up unconsciously, Yi Zhongshen's face is still very ugly.

It was so cold that it almost brought a terrifying and fierce air.

It took a while for Yi Zhongshen to lower his voice and speak in a low voice.

"Already went to pick him up."

After the showdown between the two made it clear, Bo Xiyun was not in the hotel room during the day for the past few days.

He went to the library alone, and never met Yi Zhongshen again.

Right now, Yi Zhongshen also sent bodyguards to pick up the child, and he came to find Gu Sheng first.

Gu Sheng nodded indiscriminately: "I'll pack my things now, and I'll call my dad later to ask my dad to prepare as well."

Hearing what Gu Sheng said, Yi Zhongshen stopped moving.

He was silent for a moment, reminding the other party.

"Xiaoyun may not be able to match."

Although Bo Xiyun has now been proven not to be the child of a distant relative of the Liu family, he is not necessarily Gu Sheng's long-lost brother.

After all, the distance between City Q and the Gobi where Aunt Gu Sheng lived is really far away.

...And for a child who grew up alone without a father or a mother, the fate that has never treated him favorably may not be generous enough to give him enough luck this time, so that he can find his home immediately by such a coincidence .

Yi Zhongshen would urge Gu Sheng to take Bo Xiyun to City B like this, not for the paternity test, but to keep the young man away from this place of right and wrong, and to avoid more criticism from the public opinion.

Gu Sheng understood the meaning of the other party: "I know, I know."

But he couldn't hide the dripping emotion and still couldn't ease it too much: "I just feel sorry for Xiyun..."

The child is so good.

Why do you have to go through so much pain and suffering.

Gu Sheng's mind was in a mess, and he packed his luggage in a hurry. He closed the suitcase that was originally open, and opened it again when he realized something was wrong.

Fortunately, before going home, the things were almost packed, Gu Sheng stuffed them indiscriminately, and then said suddenly.

"The Liu family should have raised his leg before handing it over to Bai Gelei, right? It's impossible to let the child go back to the Bai family with a broken leg, otherwise Bai Gelei will definitely find out and become suspicious."

They have missed too much, and can almost only use this pale guess to talk about comfort.

Yi Zhongshen's answer was also hoarse than usual.

"It was cured then."

Gu Sheng raised his head upon hearing the sound: "Really? How do you know?"

Yi Zhongshen said, "I checked Wu Ying's medical records."

In fact, when Bai Gelei was investigated before, all aspects of his records when he first picked up the child were also investigated clearly.

But in those files of Bai Gelei back then, there were no records related to children.

On the contrary, Yi Zhongshen went to check Wu Ying directly this time, only to find that 14 years ago, Wu Ying had brought her child to see a doctor.

It was a leg disease that had not fully healed.

After hearing this, Gu Sheng came to his senses: "It should be that the Liu family treated Xi Yun initially, and then Xi Yun went to Bai Gelei's, and Wu Ying took him to the hospital before raising him well."

Fortunately in misfortune, the injury to the child's legs was treated at that time.

Now it seems that there are no serious sequelae left.

But Yi Zhongshen's complexion did not ease a bit.

He remembered that Bo Xiyun's sitting posture was always very good. The child would put his knees together neatly every time, and habitually put his hands on his knees when he sat down.

Before, Yi Zhongshen thought that the boy was taught to be well-behaved since he was a child.

Thinking about it now, it is very likely that Bo Xiyun's knees still have a faint pain when he moves, so he left this habit.

Gu Sheng rubbed his face with his hands, put his arms on his forehead, and whispered.

"Even if he's not... Even if the result doesn't match, I still want to adopt Xiyun and be my younger brother."

Protect this child.

Gu Sheng said in a hoarse voice: "I will mention this matter with my family. When Xiyun goes to city B to go to university in the future, we can take good care of him."

Yi Zhong lowered his eyes deeply, his expression unclear.

In fact, he wanted to do this more than Gu Sheng.

——Let the teenagers be safe and sound, and develop themselves completely.

But Yi Zhongshen also knew very well that with the current situation of the two of them, Bo Xiyun would definitely not agree to his approach.

So in the end, he only responded in a low voice.

"Ah."

Gu Sheng tidied up the mess, and temporarily sat on the sofa beside him. He pinched the bridge of his nose and said.

"Xiyun should know the news too...he must be very sad now."

"..."

Yi Zhong was silent for a moment, and said.

"There's also the matter of his school status."

Gu Sheng was puzzled, and raised his head: "What's wrong with your student status?"

"Since he was kidnapped back then, the Liu family's birth certificate must have been forged."

Yi Zhongshen said.

"The birth certificate is directly related to the student status. After the year T University is officially admitted, his student status will also be verified."

These trivial things need to be dealt with one by one.

Not only complicated.

Time and time again, he will dig out layers of bloody wounds in the young boy's immature heart.

Gu Sheng was silent, apparently also aware of it.

Because of the name change before, Bo Xiyun already had a lot of extra procedures.

The current situation will definitely only make him more troublesome.

"Take him away." Yi Zhong said in a deep voice, "Let's rest for a few days and settle the rest of the matter slowly."

He asked someone to contact the bodyguards who followed Bo Xiyun, hoping to bring the boy back as soon as possible.

However, this time, the bodyguard sent back rather bad news.

"What?" Gu Sheng thought he heard it wrong, "Didn't get in touch?"

"Didn't the bodyguard follow him all the time?"

Yi Zhong frowned deeply, listening to the bodyguard's explanation on the phone.

"Mr. Xiao Bo seems to have discovered us a long time ago. He looked back at us many times on the way. Just now he went to the school's family courtyard to find a teacher. Before entering the community, he stopped suddenly and turned around and said, let's go back, no need Follow him again."

"In addition, please let us convey it to him, saying... Thank you for your hard work, Senior Yi."

Gu Sheng was taken aback.

Hearing these words, he suddenly thought of his previous guess - something seemed to have happened between Bo Xiyun and Yi Zhongshen before.

The two seemed to be in conflict.

Gu Sheng looked at Yi Zhongshen, and saw that the boy's thin lips were tightly pursed, his face became a little colder, and he was listening to the next words on the phone without saying a word.

"We have no choice but to wait outside the community first."

The bodyguards who followed the protection usually did not show up. When Bo Xiyun stopped outside the gate of the community to call them, the reason why the bodyguards stepped forward was more to show that they did not have any malicious intentions.

It's just that the bodyguards didn't expect that Bo Xiyun had already guessed their identities and refused so persistently.

He is firmly carrying out what he said.

I don't want to trouble Yi Zhongshen any more.

The area of ​​the community is not large, and it is not convenient to hide inside, so the bodyguards did not follow, but hid a little more concealed outside the community, waiting for Bo Xiyun to come out.

Just in case, they also left someone waiting at the back door of the complex.

But the bodyguards didn't expect——

"There is also a very small iron gate in that community, which has been locked with a chain and will not be opened at ordinary times. In the end, we didn't wait for anyone, only to find that Mr. Xiao Bo seemed to have come through the gap left by the chain on the iron gate. , walked out sideways, and left."

"After that we searched nearby again, but we couldn't find any trace of him again."

Gu Sheng heard halfway, picked up his phone, and called Bo Xiyun.

"Beep-beep-"

The notification tone during the call kept ringing, and it was so long that it made people panic.

Gu Sheng frowned: "Could it be Bai Gelei who came to trouble Xiyun again?"

"will not."

Yi Zhongshen's voice was a little hoarse, but his tone was clear.

"Bai Gelei has been being watched all the time now. He didn't himself, and he didn't send anyone out."

Gu Sheng was taken aback.

Did Yi Zhongshen directly monitor Bai Gelei?

"It's not the Liu family either," Yi Zhong said with deep eyes, "The two people from Liu's family who came to Q City have been staying in the Internet cafe in the west of the city, and they have never looked for Xiaoyun online or offline."

"..." Gu Sheng opened his mouth.

It was only at this time that he truly realized the real results of his friend's busy these days.

——In Q City, Yi Zhongshen was able to find out so many things in such a short period of time, and also knew the movements of so many people like the palm of his hand.

If the two parties were not involved, at least Bo Xiyun's personal safety should be fine.

Just as Gu Sheng was thinking, he heard the waiting tone on the phone suddenly cut off.

"Hey, why didn't Xiyun answer?"

Gu Sheng frowned, and was about to redial when he saw a WeChat message from Bo Xiyun.

【What's wrong? 】

Gu Sheng immediately asked him.

【Where are you now? 】

Gu Sheng considered how to bring up the matter of taking him back to City B with the young man, but he hadn't considered it yet, but saw a message from there.

【I want to relax myself】

Gu Sheng couldn't help but pause.

After hearing the news, Bo Xiyun must be in a bad mood now.

Perhaps, he still needs a little space of his own.

Gu Sheng hesitated, and asked Yi Zhongshen: "Why don't you let Xiyun be quiet for a while..."

Yi Zhong's furrowed brows did not loosen.

"The bodyguards chased after him shortly after he left the iron gate. If it was him, he wouldn't have disappeared so quickly."

Although it was only speculation, Yi Zhongshen still felt that something was wrong.

"Xiaoyun may have been taken away by someone, or someone deliberately wiped away the traces."

Gu Sheng was stunned: "...Who would do that?"

Aren't there any movements from Bai Gelei and the Liu family?

"You continue to contact him."

After Yi Zhongshen finished speaking, he turned his head and said to the bodyguard on the phone: "Locate his mobile phone immediately."

When the Liu family broke the news, Bo Xiyun did find out very quickly.

The news about the real and fake sons of the Bai family had already been widely circulated.Now that the truth of the matter has undergone such a big reversal, more and more people are curious about it, and it is almost known to everyone that the Liu family made trouble.

When she learned of her real life experience, Bo Xiyun actually didn't feel superfluous.

When Bai Gelei brought him back more than ten years ago, he never fulfilled his father's responsibilities.At that time, Bai Gelei was not rational, because of the loss of reproductive ability, he was hit too hard, and he was in a very crazy state.

Bo Xiyun originally thought that Bai Gelei was just a special case, an extreme behavior caused by his self-willed personality.

It wasn't until later that Bai Gelei communicated frequently with those fellow sufferers that Bo Xiyun gradually realized how important it was to those men who flaunted their dignity to be able to do such a thing.

So much so that they do not hesitate to try all kinds of strange and even unimaginable methods, and abuse all kinds of strange drugs of unknown origin, just to seek even a little special effect.

As a result, Bai Gelei's behavior became more and more paranoid.

Previously, Bai Gelei's frenzied suppression of the Liu family, trying to get the child back at all costs, was more for his own venting anger, not because of how much he really valued the child.

Therefore, after the child came to Bai's house, Bai Gelei was still concentrating on seeking medical treatment, and hardly cared about Bo Xiyun.

Growing up in such a family environment, Bo Xiyun didn't have any extra expectations for family affection.

When he learned that he might have been sold to the Liu family by Bo's father for money, he hadn't had any mood swings.

Same now.

Whose child is he, or whether he has no father or mother at all, it doesn't really make any difference.

However, this was Bo Xiyun's own idea. He found that in the eyes of others, this seemed to be a very important matter.

The matter really spread widely. In half a day, many classmates and friends sent him messages, and most of them gave him comfort carefully.

Bo Xiyun replied one by one, thanking her.

But after replying some, his WeChat message started to delay, it seemed to be stuck.

Bo Xiyun turned off the background information first, and planned to return later.

Before the message got stuck, he also received a message from Xu Xinyi.

Unlike other friends, Xu Xinyi sent a few photos taken by herself.

She was making desserts according to the recipes on the Internet, but the finished product turned over, and the yellow cheesecake was directly baked into charcoal, blending with the burnt bottom of the pan, and there was basically no difference.

Looking at the photo of the overturned car sent by the other party, Bo Xiyun couldn't help laughing, and replied.

【be careful. 】

Xu Xinyi soon sent another message.

【Be a bit happier! 】

Boxi smiled.

【thanks. 】

Not only did classmates and friends send messages, but Bo Xiyun also received a call from the head teacher.

"Xiyun, is it convenient for you now? Why don't you come to my house?"

Bo Xiyun left the library and went to the head teacher's house.

The teacher lived in the family area of ​​No. [-] Middle School. When Bo Xiyun arrived, the head teacher's house was quite lively.

Chinese New Year is approaching, and many relatives came to the teacher's house, chatting together in harmony, and some people gathered in the living room to play cards.

In the lively atmosphere, Boxiyun, who came in alone and still carried the cold winter outside, was lonely and alone.

There were people everywhere in the house. In order to facilitate the conversation, the head teacher simply brought two fruit plates and led the children into the master bedroom.

"Xiyun, do you know about your current student status? There may be a situation that needs to be dealt with."

In fact, when Bo Xiyun received the call from the head teacher, he already guessed what it was.

After all, when he was forced to change his name by Bai Gelei, he had troubled the teacher a lot.

The class teacher explained it to him in detail.

The people in the school just contacted the Education Bureau and checked Bo Xiyun's student status.Before Bai Gelei drove Bo Xiyun out of the Bai family, he had already directly moved out his household registration information. Bo Xiyun's household registration was temporarily left in the community where he lived.

However, the parents' information and birth certificate in his file were changed to those provided by the Liu family, that is, his parents were Bo and his wife, and their birthplace was in the neighboring city where the Liu family was located.

But now the matter has been exposed, and these files and certificates were forged by the Liu family at that time.

Therefore, Bo Xiyun's student status has also been affected and must be corrected.

If it's just a normal high school study, the change of student status information is not so urgent.

But the crux of the problem was that Bo Xiyun had just been admitted to T University, and T University was still waiting to check his student status information a year later.

In this way, Bo Xiyun had to prepare all the correct documents before T major left his files.

Time suddenly became quite tense.

If it really can't be done properly, Bo Xiyun's escorting of Mr. T may be affected.

That's why the class teacher called him over in such a hurry.

However, when speaking, the teacher's tone was always gentle, taking care of Bo Xiyun's emotions.

He didn't say anything about time constraints, troublesome things, serious consequences.

These were basically guessed by Bo Xiyun himself.

The teacher just said: "Let me help you apply for the form. This kind of form usually has a standard format. Let's just follow the process. Last time, I had a little experience. This time, there is no need to rush. We will try to deal with it as soon as possible, so you can feel at ease." .”

But Bo Xiyun had dealt with the staff in charge of the archives before, and he knew that this kind of thing was not as simple as the teacher said.

It's not that it's raw once and familiar with second time. On the contrary, this may still be a big trouble.

Before he was forced to change his name, Bo Xiyun had already submitted a lot of supplementary information. Now it is considered a second change. Not only will the process be more troublesome, it may even be regarded as multiple unauthorized changes, and he may be directly rejected .

But facing the teacher, Bo Xiyun only nodded: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

While the two of them were talking, the bedroom door would be opened from time to time, and children from relatives would poke their heads in curiously, only to be kicked out by the class teacher.

In the end, the teacher simply locked the door directly.

After talking about this, another child knocked on the door, this time it was the head teacher's own daughter, who called him through the door in a childish voice.

"Dad! Help me with my homework~"

The head teacher went to open the door, and Bo Xiyun followed. As soon as the door opened, the child jumped into the head teacher's arms.

The head teacher picked up her daughter, and the little girl lay on her father's shoulder, biting her fingers and looking at Bo Xiyun in front of her.

Bo Xiyun smiled at the child, and the girl also laughed and called him sweetly.

"Beautiful brother~"

The head teacher patted his daughter on the back: "It should be called Handsome Brother."

Bo Xiyun smiled and said, "It's all fine."

The head teacher said: "Xiyun, you can stay here today, and I will discuss the application form with you."

He gestured again to the smelly kitchen: "My elder brother just came, and he is stewing pig's trotters and pork ribs. You can smell it. It smells so good. It will be ready soon."

Bo Xiyun knew that the teacher was worried about her, so she kindly wanted to keep her in a lively place for the new year.

But he politely declined, not wanting to bother the teacher anymore.

"I'll go to the police station first, and ask the police sister who moved my household registration last time to help me look at the birth certificate."

The reason he said was justified, and the teacher tried to persuade him twice but failed, so he had to send the boy out.

At the end, the teacher took another candy plate from several children, and filled the two pockets of Bo Xiyun's coat with candy.

Leaving the family area of ​​No. [-] Middle School, Bo Xiyun checked the time and got into a taxi by the side of the road.

It has been two days since the year before, and the police station will be on holiday soon.Before he got off work, he planned to ask about himself today.

It was getting late and the time was a little tight, and it would take a lot of time to reverse the bus if taking the bus, so Bo Xiyun had no choice but to choose a taxi.

He purposely picked out two mints from the candy the teacher gave him, held one in his mouth, and pressed the other under his tongue.

Among the two pockets of candy, the number of mints is the largest.

Because the children didn't like to eat them, they only picked up the sweet ones and ate them.

Maybe the mints really played a role, or maybe Bo Xiyun didn't look at his phone this time. After getting out of the car, his reaction to motion sickness was not serious.

When leaving, he took another look into the car.

"Thank you master."

After walking a few steps, Bo Xiyun noticed movement not far behind him.

He simply stopped, turned his head to the empty alley, and said.

"Come out."

There was no voice in the streets, let alone a response.Bao Xiyun glanced at it, turned around and prepared to leave, and said, "I'll leave if I don't come out, don't follow me anymore."

He really doesn't have the energy to play hide-and-seek with people.

There was movement behind him.

A tall and thin figure came out of the alley.

Bo Xiyun turned around, slightly surprised: "It's you?"

The person who came had a handsome face and gentle eyes, it was Bai Xiu.

Bo Xiyun thought it was the Liu family who came to look for him, or that Bai Song represented Bai Gelei to find fault, but he didn't expect it to be Bai Xiu.

But think about it, Bai Xiu is actually more representative of the Bai family than his cousin.

Bai Xiu looked at him, a little curious: "Xi Yun, how did you know someone would come?"

Bo Xiyun coughed and covered her lips.

"The meter of the taxi just now, the sign and the taxi company on the body are not the same one."

"That's not a taxi."

Moreover, even though the car arrived at the location designated by Bo Xiyun, it turned around on purpose and stopped at the location across the street, obviously not like what a taxi would do.

It was clear that there were people nearby.

"As expected of you brother, you are so careful."

Bai Xiu laughed and explained.

"That's a car of my friend. He often modifies and paints it himself. Recently, he thought it was fun and changed it into a taxi."

He also said: "The chassis of that car is more stable and less prone to motion sickness."

"..."

Bo Xiyun still didn't understand the intention of the other party's visit. He looked at Bai Xiu and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What's up?"

Bai Xiu approached in a few steps, and said in a gentle tone: "I asked the teacher about your situation, and guessed that you should need help."

He pointed to the police station not far away.

"I have a friend who happens to be on duty today. If you want to do some business, I can go with you."

Bo Xiyun shook her head: "No, I can go by myself."

"Brother." Bai Xiu called him softly, "I'll go with you, there is one more person, and if you have to run errands and line up, it will save you trouble."

Bo Xiyun still declined.

But Bai Xiu was more persistent than him and continued to follow him.

Until reaching a shelter from the wind, Bo Xiyun finally stopped and sighed.

"Bai Xiu."

He suddenly called the other party's name and asked.

"Since I'm a beggar who was bought temporarily, then what you said about me being with you when you were young, and you always remembering my brother, isn't it all a lie?"

Bo Xiyun didn't intend to ask the teacher to ask the crime.

Even though he bluntly exposed the other party's lies, his tone was still very flat.

But Bai Xiu was momentarily dumbfounded by the question.

Bo Xiyun said calmly: "If you spend so much time because you want to tease me, it's really unnecessary. I won't give you too many reactions that make you happy."

Bai Song had been provocative before and wanted to see his jokes, but he had never succeeded.

Why did Bai Xiu make such a fuss.

Now Bo Xiyun really didn't have any extra time to spend with the other party, so he lowered his head and patted his cuffs after he finished speaking, ready to go to the police station.

"You go back first, goodbye."

"Xiyun...brother!"

Bai Xiu stopped him again, his voice finally lost its usual steady and gentle voice, and there was even an inconspicuous tremor in the end.

"I'm sorry, because... because I like you!"

Bo Xiyun paused and turned around.

Bai Xiu looked straight at him, with rare helplessness in his eyes.

"I didn't mean to lie to you, it's because... I don't want to remind you of those bad memories of begging when you were young, so I took the opportunity to say that you are my distant cousin."

He clenched his hands and lowered his voice slightly.

"But we have really been together. When you were recuperating, you lived in Liu's house for a while. It is the first time that I have friends of the same age who can stay together for such a long time. I rely on you very much."

Bo Xiyun looked at him, and silently licked the small piece of mint candy left under the tip of her tongue.

Bai Xiu's tone was full of sincerity, and the look in his eyes did not seem to be fake.

But Bo Xiyun still couldn't confirm it.

His memories of that time period are completely absent. Before, he thought it was because his memory was fuzzy, but now it seems that it is very likely that his childhood experience was too painful, which spontaneously stimulated the body's protection mechanism and sealed up those memories. .

Bo Xiyun didn't know either.

Is what Bai Xiu said true?

"elder brother."

Bai Xiu, who was one step away, called him again in a low voice, his tone sounded a little pitiful.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you."

"Even if you don't mention this." Bo Xiyun moved the mint to one side with the tip of her tongue and said, "Why do you like me?"

Can childhood events have such a profound impact?

"We haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and we may have become completely different people from each other."

Bai Xiu's face was still pale, but he smiled: "No, not at all."

"No matter when, you are always the calmest and most rational person."

Bai Xiu looked at him and said softly.

"I like you, you have always been like this."

Bo Xiyun pursed her lips to confirm that the other party was not joking.

So he could only tell Bai Xiu calmly and rationally.

"Sorry, I can't accept your wishes."

Bai Xiu's cold and pale complexion was slightly flushed, he lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"That's okay... Brother, I just want to help you."

"If you can be better, I will be very happy."

It's not that Bo Xiyun is really unfeeling, but he also has to draw a line ruthlessly.

But since the other party has expressed his intentions, he can't use this to catch the other party and gain benefits.

"Thank you, but I can handle it myself."

"I'll ask you for help if necessary."

Bo Xiyun paused for a while, and said again.

"In addition, I think that your dependence on me may just be a kind of habitual dependence in childhood. Maybe when you look at other friends more, you will find that this is not liking."

Bai Xiu finally raised his head, but shook his head lightly.

"No, brother."

he asks.

"Do you know why I could see that Teacher Yi liked you?"

"Because the way he looks at you is exactly the same as mine."

Bai Xiu pursed his lips and smiled, his pure black eyes were bright like ink.

"Look at your peerless treasures."

Bo Xiyun looked at the other party's smiling face, which became more and more handsome and gentle, but frowned slightly.

As soon as Bai Xiu mentioned Yi Zhongshen, Bo Xiyun subconsciously wanted to say something different.

But now, he discovered the difference even more.

Because after Bo Xiyun clearly said the words of rejection.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

However, Bai Xiu's state seems to be because of this rejection——

got more excited.
