Lin Shilang Gu

"Um...so are you going to hang up now?"

Lin Yuewei: "..."

In the same situation, but in a different place, Gu Yanqiu's reaction was completely opposite to hers.Lin Yuewei didn't want to admit that she was more impatient than Gu Yanqiu, but she was indeed impatient in this regard.

She didn't speak.

Gu Yanqiu was waiting, but also betting that she would choose to hang up decisively, or gently lift it off, and continue to chat with her as if nothing had happened.

Gu Yanqiu counted the beads on his wrist to ten, and Lin Yuewei spoke.

"No, I just have something to tell you."

Lin Yuewei is a person who cannot be inferior to others, especially Gu Yanqiu, even if it is verbally, as long as he loses a little, Lin Yuewei finds it unbearable.Unable to use science to explain her own psychology, Lin Yuewei could only choose an excuse that was easier for her to accept: she and Gu Yanqiu were born to be at odds.

Gu Yanqiu replied indifferently: "Miss Lin, please tell me."

Lin Yuewei couldn't really say anything, he turned his head and said, "I'm leaving for S city today."

Gu Yanqiu knew about this. According to the competition system, Lin Yuewei and other contestants who made their debut had to return to the production headquarters of the program a week later to accept the arrangements for their whereabouts. It was exactly one week from her vacation to today.

"What are you going to do?" Gu Yanqiu pretended to be confused deliberately.

"Go and see who you want to sign the contract with." Lin Yuewei couldn't help being slightly annoyed, and inadvertently took on a blameful tone, and said, "Didn't you watch the show? Don't you know how the final result of this show is presented?" ?”

"..."

"I'm sorry." Lin Yuewei apologized quickly, and calmly found an excuse for himself, "I just found out that I left a very important thing at home. I was a little anxious, and my tone was a little heavy. It was not intentional. Please excuse me."

Gu Yanqiu swallowed back the words he was about to say, and said, "It doesn't matter."

She pursed her lips and said, "I only watched a few episodes of the whole TV show, so I don't understand some parts, please forgive me."

"It's okay." Lin Yuewei said.

The two were relatively silent through the phone, but the atmosphere at this time was different from every time before. The two of them felt a kind of strange feeling surrounding the two of them.

Lin Yuewei found that the corners of her lips raised inexplicably, and she couldn't press her fingers down.

She coughed lightly.

Gu Yanqiu swallowed her throat, and asked warmly with her clear and pleasant voice: "I don't know what Miss Lin missed at home?"

"It's nothing, it's just the rabbit doll that I kept hanging on my backpack during the competition. I saw it was a little dusty when I went home, so I washed it and hung it to dry, and then I forgot to bring it." Lin Yuewei added as if Added, "That's a gift from my fans."

Lin Yuewei's rabbit doll had indeed left at home, but she didn't think of it when she and Gu Yanqiu were talking earlier, but an excuse she made up on the spot.

Gu Yanqiu gave a meaningful "Oh".

Lin Yuewei said: "Actually, it's not very important, it's the first one given by fans, so I will remember it."

Gu Yanqiu paused, and said, "Then I'll send it to you next time."

Lin Yuewei was startled: "What?"

Gu Yanqiu said: "I'll take it there for you. I'm going to S city for a business trip in two days, so I happened to be on the way."

Lin Yuewei hurriedly said: "No, no, no, Miss Gu is too polite." She even looked around reflexively, for fear that Gu Yanqiu would appear by her side by a ghost. Suddenly, an idea popped up again: It would be nice if Gu Yanqiu could really appear...

Gu Yanqiu didn't know her mental activities, she was already thinking about how to spare time during the business trip, and replied, "You're welcome."

Lin Yuewei didn't mean that, but being picked up by Gu Yanqiu seemed like he agreed.

She licked her upper lip, sat up straighter, curled her fingers on the long hair on her chest, and said, "Miss Gu, I have something, I want you to take care of it for me."

"what's up?"

Lin Yuewei hesitated to speak.

"Miss Lin, but it's okay to say."

"It's like this. My mother is not in a good mood recently. I asked her and she didn't say anything. She just said that the weather was hot and she was not energetic. I don't know if it is true or not. I think she likes you very much. I may take care of you when I am outside. If you don't go to her, if she asks you to come to my house to play, please enlighten her more."

"it is good."

Lin Yuewei felt that this meant an invitation, so he added in a pretentious manner: "It's fine if you're busy with work. I just said it casually, and I also asked Jiang Congbi."

"En." Gu Yanqiu's answer was very simple, and it sounded like he was absent-minded.

Lin Yue frowned slightly.

"Miss Lin, wait a moment, I have an important message."

"Okay, you go back."

Then Lin Yuewei heard the sound of fast typing on the keyboard on the other side through the receiver, and it was very crisp. Lin Yuewei should have hung up the phone at this time, and she doesn't like to waste time waiting for such things, let alone she has nothing to do I have to talk to Gu Yanqiu.

But she just sat there, listening to the sound of the keyboard, not feeling bored at all.

When the voice stopped, Lin Yuewei asked out of words, "Are you busy with work?"

"It's okay." Gu Yanqiu replied in the usual short way. Just hearing the voice, he felt that this person was a thousand miles away. Lin Yue let out a breath and planned to say goodbye to her. Gu Yanqiu added belatedly, "Actually, I'm not particularly busy. But I don’t have anything else to do at home except work, so I’d rather just work, anyway, to make money for my company.”

Lin Yuewei asked: "Then what other recreational activities do you usually do?"

Gu Yanqiu pondered for a moment, then said, "Riding a horse, archery and playing with a gun? Does that count?"

"Forget it." Lin Yue smiled slightly, "Don't you come from some ancient time, right? Why do you like such ancient things?"

"Equestrianism is now a professional sport. I have participated in many competitions abroad. Archery is because I enjoy the pleasure of drawing a bow and aiming. The gun is very modern, and it is a hot weapon that has only matured in modern times." Gu Yanqiu gave a serious answer. She explained, saying, "How old is that?"

It was the first time Lin Yuewei heard her say such a long paragraph, and she couldn't help being surprised. It turns out that this person can also chat, "I'm just joking, don't be angry."

"I'm joking too, I'm not angry." Gu Yanqiu's brows and eyes were soft, and it was rare to be playful.

"I can only guarantee that I won't fall off the horse in equestrianism. It's not enough to run fast, let alone skill. Is archery difficult to learn? Isn't it allowed to play with guns in China?"

"It's not difficult. There are air guns in China, and there are special clubs and clubs."

"I'm interested."

"If I'm free, I..." Gu Yanqiu's eyes fell on the message window in front of him, he frowned and thought, and sent a reply to the partner. I replied back and forth in a word.

Lin Yuewei didn't wait for her next text, and wanted to urge but was embarrassed, so she could only wait quietly.

"Did you just say something?" Gu Yanqiu who replied to the message had already forgotten what she wanted to say before.

"I didn't say anything." Lin Yuewei said angrily.

Gu Yanqiu was puzzled by her sudden anger.

Lin Yuewei: "My mother called me, so I hung up first."

Gu Yanqiu: "Okay."

"See you next time." Lin Yuewei hung up the phone impatiently.

What was she hoping for just now?Lin Yuewei covered his face with his hands and fell back into the seat.

Gu Yanqiu put the phone aside strangely but satisfied.In any case, she had a lot of conversations with Lin Yuewei today, and the other party didn't show hostility towards her in a strange way, which is already a great improvement.

Gu Yanqiu is not in a hurry about this matter, she has always been calm.

After wearing the earphones for a long time, my ears felt uncomfortable. Gu Yanqiu took off the earphones and put them together with the phone.As soon as she fell into concentrated work, she would forget the time, and by the time she remembered to take a break for dinner, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Gu Yanqiu looked at the time and decided to wait another two hours. At four o'clock, lunch and dinner were eaten in one meal. People who live a regular life sometimes want to be a little lazy. How can cooking be so troublesome? Once is once.

Gu Yanqiu wandered around the room, opened the refrigerator here, opened the drawer there, found out a pack of jellybeans and a pack of biscuits, sat in front of the sofa, and used Lin Yuewei's edited video on the same screen as the TV, and had dinner just like this .

After watching the beauties on TV for a long time, Gu Yanqiu couldn't help but fantasize about Lin Yuewei in reality, and suddenly came back to his senses, and dialed the prayer beads urgently.

……Amitabha.

Gu Yanqiu planned well, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. She didn't finish this dinner at home, and was called to Gu's house by her father Gu Huai.

Gu Yanqiu looked at the half-cut green onion on the chopping board, scooped up the clear water from the pot and put it into the noodle bowl at the side, covered it as it was, washed his hands, and drove out the door.

"Dad." Gu Yanqiu entered the door. He Songjun and Gu Feiquan's mother and son were not in the living room. Gu Yanqiu stood in the porch, bent over to change shoes and asked, "Why are you calling me back in such a hurry?"

Gu Huai said: "Old Jiao specially sent over the crayfish raised by his family. I asked my aunt to cook crayfish at night. Don't you like to eat them, so I called you over."

Lao Jiao was the former driver of the Gu family. Gu Yanqiu called him Uncle Jiao. Lao Jiao had been with Gu Huai for many years. Ever since Gu Yanqiu remembered him, he had always been the driver of the family.Lao Jiao had an accident when Gu Yanqiu was in the second year of junior high school, and one of his legs was disabled, so he couldn't continue to drive for Gu Huai. Later, Gu Huai gave him a sum of money, and Lao Jiao resigned and went home to contract crayfish farming. There is a lot of wind and fire, and every harvest season will pick big and fat ones and send them over, and they will not fall every year.

Now it's the peak season for crayfish to go on the market again. Gu Yanqiu has been abroad for a few years, but if Gu Huai doesn't mention it, I really want to forget it.

Gu Yanqiu said: "I haven't seen Uncle Jiao for a long time."

Gu Huai said: "He is busy now, and he may come back to Yanning if he is free in a while."

Gu Yanqiu: "If you want to invite Uncle Jiao to dinner, remember to call me."

Gu Huai said: "Okay, he misses you very much too, he called me yesterday and mentioned you."

Gu Yanqiu smiled: "Did Uncle Jiao's daughter already go to college? Where did she go?"

"The 985 school in their provincial capital ranks quite high in the country."

"That's not bad."

"Old Jiao plans to send her to study abroad for two years after she graduates from university."

"How old is she now?"

"Nineteen, I'm just a sophomore this year."

The father and daughter chatted casually. Although the topic was not very close, the relationship improved imperceptibly. However, Gu Yanqiu thought of another suspicious point. Her father even remembered how old the driver's daughter was and where she went to school. , definitely not a heartless and ungrateful person, this coincides with the Gu Huai in her impression.In the past half a year or so, Gu Huai seems to have become a completely different person, but the fact is obviously not the case.He will still remember his old friend, and occasionally show her his father's tenderness.

Uncle Jiao... By the way, Gu Yanqiu suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Uncle Jiao has been with her father for so long and is also the driver of the Gu family. Would he know about her mother?Together with this thought, Gu Yanqiu could hardly hold back, and immediately wanted to find Uncle Jiao, pinching his palm with his fingers to forcefully keep his expression as calm as usual.

"He said last time..." But the change in Gu Yanqiu's expression did not escape Gu Huai's eyes, Gu Huai asked aloud, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Gu Yanqiu smiled slightly, "Dad, do you have Uncle Jiao's phone number?"

Gu Huai's expression changed subtly in an instant, "What do you want his phone number for?"

Gu Yanqiu replied calmly: "Yuewei also likes to eat crayfish. I plan to order a batch from Uncle Jiao to deliver to my home, as well as the Lin family's father-in-law. If I like it, I will also send some to them."

She said apologetically in her heart: I'm sorry, Miss Lin, to borrow your name.

Gu Huai nodded and said, "That's the way it should be. Help me get my phone."

Gu Huai's mobile phone is a little closer to Gu Yanqiu, and she can come over as soon as she reaches out. Gu Huai took it from her mobile phone, found Lao Jiao's number from the address book, and handed it to Gu Yanqiu, "This is it, you save it."

Gu Yanqiu compared the numbers above, and was troubled in her heart. Why is her father so forthright?Didn't she think that she would ask Uncle Jiao about this level?Or does Uncle Jiao actually know nothing?Or is he confident?

The latter two possibilities are not what she wants to see.

Gu Yanqiu returned the phone, and Gu Huai threw it aside again indifferently, and said, "How are you getting along with the two parents of the Lin family? Did they make things difficult for you?"

"No. Her father is seen less because of work, and her mother is more. She is a very good person. I went to Lin's house for dinner last week." Gu Yanqiu said, feeling uncomfortable and a little novel at the same time. Dad asked about his life experience after marriage. Putting it on ordinary people, he would probably be shy and happy.

She quietly lowered her eyes, wishing her mother was still alive, she didn't see her get married when she was dying.

Gu Huai said: "I know, you stayed at Lin's house for one night."

Gu Yanqiu: "!!!"

Gu Huai couldn't help laughing, and said, "I saw it in my mother-in-law's circle of friends, saying that the daughter of the Lin family found a toothbrush for you, and my mother-in-law even asked the big guy what electric toothbrush to buy."

Gu Yanqiu only had Mother Lin's phone number and no WeChat ID, so she didn't know about her flirtatious operation, so she looked at her father in a daze.

The first thought that flashed through her mind was what Lin Yuewei would think when she saw this circle of friends, whether she would be angry on the spot and argue with her mother, which was in line with her personality.

Gu Huai smiled gratifiedly and said, "At first, I was worried that you married the daughter of the Lin family for some other reasons. Now it seems that you are living happily." If your mother is alive in heaven, she will be happy for you too.

When Gu Yanqiu misunderstood, Gu Huai returned to his normal expression. He stood up and walked in front: "Come with me to the study, I have business to tell you."

***

Gu Feiquan was a busy man, he was at work seven days a week, this afternoon He Songjun couldn't stand it anymore, so he took him out and let him go shopping with him.Gu Feiquan doesn't like to go shopping, but he is a dutiful son, his mother has already spoken, so naturally he won't stop coming out.Like most men, he followed behind carrying bags and paying by credit card. When He Songjun asked him which one looked good, he could do whatever he liked, and he asked for them all.When He Songjun scolded him as a prodigal, Gu Feiquan rolled his eyes to the sky.

The mother and son went out for a stroll at noon until the sun was setting. Gu Feiquan drove the car in through the main entrance, and saw an extra car in the parking space at home, a white Maserati parked quietly at the edge.

Gu Feiquan squinted his eyes, and before he had time to express his opinion, his mother, He Songjun, changed his expression: "Why did this little bitch come home again?"

Gu Feiquan frowned. Although he doesn't like Gu Yanqiu, it doesn't mean he can accept such a title. He Songjun has been neglected all these years, and he has vented his anger on Gu Yanqiu's mother and daughter. Her mother is dead, and the only ones left alive are Gu Yanqiu is next.

Gu Feiquan: "Pay attention to your wording, and be careful not to be overheard by Gu Huai."

He Songjun was afraid of Gu Huai, upon hearing this, he immediately pursed his lips, as if Gu Huai could suddenly jump out of a building tens of meters away.Seeing her like this, Gu Feiquan felt pitiful and ridiculous, and at the same time tried his best to suppress the loathing in his heart.

Even if this person is his biological mother.

Gu Feiquan got out of the car, and held the back seat and those bags full of them, "Mom, close the car door."

He Songjun had already stood a few steps away. Earrings, necklaces, clothes, and bags were all famous brands. She looked like a rich wife. She waved her hands proudly and said, "If I don't go, can't you lock yourself up?"

Gu Feiquan took a look at her, and hit the door with his elbow. He couldn't control the force. With a bang, He Songjun scolded him again: "What if the car door is broken? How much trouble do you have? Do you think you Is it Gu Yanqiu...? Look at her car, and then at your car, it's not that poor."

Gu Feiquan endured the anger all the way, and suddenly exploded: "What's wrong with me being poor, at least I bought it with my own money! Others have a good father and a good mother, but I don't!"

He Songjun pointed at him: "You!"

Gu Feiquan: "I don't compare myself with others because I know how much I am, do you know? Don't tell me, I met Gu Yanqiu's mother before. You are far worse than others, and you can wear a dragon robe. Like the prince, can you stop being so vain!"

"I'm vain?" He Songjun was so choked that he couldn't speak, he beat his chest and said, "Who am I doing this for—"

"For yourself."

Gu Feiquan dropped this sentence coldly, and strode towards the door in stride.

"You stop!"

Gu Feiquan didn't pause for a second.

He Songjun glanced left and right at the servant who was poking his head in this direction, "What are you looking at, why don't you go to work!" After finishing speaking, he stomped his feet and chased after him, "Gu Feiquan, you want to rebel?"

When he was about to reach the door, He Songjun silenced, and he and Gu Feiquan continued to perform the "mother kindness and filial piety" scene. Gu Feiquan was so angry that he didn't bother to cooperate with her in every scene, so he strode upstairs.

Gu Huai saw it and asked, "What happened to him?"

He Songjun smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I'm not happy to go shopping with me."

Gu Huai paused, as if he was enduring something, and said: "If he is not willing next time, you can ask me to accompany you, as long as I am free."

He Songjun was stunned.

Gu Yanqiu on the side was also stunned, looking at Gu Huai in disbelief.She clenched her fists hanging by her side and left the living room.

After a while, He Songjun said cautiously: "Is what you said true?"

Gu Huai asked her back: "When is what I said not true?"

"What about 30 years ago? What did you promise me?" He Songjun had tears in his eyes.

"It's all my fault." Gu Huai took out a tissue to wipe her tears, looked at her and said, "But the children are innocent, I don't want Feiquan to become a tool in your hands, he is a good boy."

Gu Huai said, "I will compensate you."

He Songjun let the man's fingertips pass by the corners of her eyes, and thought full of sorrow: It's too late, what do you owe me for so many years?

***

Gu Yanqiu went up to the balcony on the third floor, and met the eyes of Gu Feiquan looking over.

The two of them staggered at the same time, each occupying a corner, and the well water did not interfere with the river water.

Two cigarette butts fell under Gu Feiquan's feet, he was still smoking, his eyes were far away and deep.Gu Yanqiu sat on a pony tie brought over from the corner, lost in thought.

Gu Feiquan stomped out a cigarette, turned his head to look at the young woman who was so quiet that he almost had no sense of existence, and a strange feeling arose in his heart: this person was his half-sister.

When Gu Feiquan didn't know his background, he fantasized that he had a younger sister, with a fair face and soft hair, who would hold his leg and call her brother coquettishly, brother hug, brother go, brother buy, he was willing to give everything Give it all to her.

When he was older and sensible, his mother told him that you originally had a father, but there was a vicious woman who stole your father and gave birth to a daughter with him.He Songjun specially took him to the entrance of the noble school to see the students who were wearing British-style school uniforms—whose uniforms were much better than the wholesale uniforms of ordinary schools. Gu Yanqiu himself was also beautiful, and he could be seen in the crowd at a glance.At that time, Gu Yanqiu had already begun to look aloof, surrounded by a group of young people with the same family background as her.

He Songjun forced him to stare at the other party intently, and said in his ear over and over again: "Did you see, this person is the daughter of that bad woman, look at the school behind her, look at her clothes, her friend, These are supposed to be yours."

A luxury car was parked at the school gate, and a tall and handsome young man got out of the car. Gu Yanqiu, who was in junior high school, looked at him with a smile on his face. The man fed her a piece of candy and brought her into the car with a doting face.

"That's your father. His name is Gu Huai. This is yours too, and it belongs to you alone."

"They stole everything that belongs to you! You have to remember!"

After so many years, Gu Feiquan still remembers He Songjun's appearance at that time, her eyeballs were bulging, her facial features were almost distorted, it was very terrifying, and she repeated it in Gu Feiquan's ears over and over again like a curse.

"I don't want such a father! I don't have a father!" Gu Feiquan yelled, threw off He Songjun's restraint, turned his head and ran.

He Songjun chased him, relentlessly.

In middle school, Gu Feiquan had a huge imbalance in He Songjun's day-to-day brainwashing. He even secretly followed Gu Yanqiu and Gu's mother, looking for an opportunity to attack them, but he never made up his mind.

As he grew older, Gu Feiquan went to university, had his own ideals and career, and gradually took this matter lightly. Only He Songjun, who has been stubbornly persisting for so many years, babbled to him whenever he had time.And just after Mrs. Gu's death, she actually got what she wanted and married into the Gu family as she wished.

Even Gu Feiquan found this unbelievable.

If you ask Gu Feiquan if he hates Gu Yanqiu, hate, the brainwashing that He Songjun gave him over the years has been subtle, and it is impossible to get rid of it easily, but if you really want to hate it to the point, it won't be.

In middle school and university, Gu Feiquan met Gu's mother several times from a distance. She was the most beautiful person he had ever seen, and she would never do anything to steal her husband. I can't tell the difference.Even so, the grievances and grievances of their previous generation have nothing to do with Gu Yanqiu.

Gu Feiquan thought of his childhood wish, and couldn't help secretly looking at Gu Yanqiu's appearance, he was like Gu Huai, and Gu Yanqiu was more like her mother, but Gu Feiquan found that their eyebrows and lips were somewhat similar.

A bit of joy appeared in Gu Feiquan's heart, but he was quickly suppressed by the contradiction.

"Hey."

Gu Yanqiu moved her ears and looked around, only to realize that Gu Feiquan was calling her. Her answer was simpler than the other party's, and she just raised her eyebrows slightly to express her doubts.

"In what year did your father and your mother get married?"

"..."

Gu Yanqiu didn't answer, Gu Feiquan said to himself: "If the facts I know are correct, it was 28 years ago, and they had you in the third year after they got married."

"What do you want to say?" Gu Yanqiu's voice was a little hoarse, and his voice sounded much lower than usual.

"Do you know that I am 28 years old this year?"

Gu Yanqiu stared at him.

"Don't look at me like that." Gu Feiquan snorted, "I was already born when the two of them got married."

Gu Yanqiu was expressionless.

"Haven't you ever wondered how your mother married Gu Huai? Does she know that I already exist in this world? My mother said that she and Gu Huai were in love with each other, and it was your mother who snatched it away." Get Gu Huai, let him abandon his family and son." Gu Feiquan almost stuttered the last four words.

"Get out." Gu Yanqiu raised his hand and smashed the candy wrapper in his face.

Gu Feiquan closed his eyes and looked at her provocatively: "Then how do you explain that he can't wait to welcome my mother and me into the house now, isn't it because he feels guilty?"

"Shut up." Gu Yanqiu clenched his fists and squinted at him coldly.

"Don't deceive yourself Gu Yanqiu, do you think your mother is a good person?"

"I told you to shut up!" Gu Yanqiu finally stood up from the saddle, loosened his five knuckles, and punched him in the face.

Gu Feiquan was beaten to the side of his head, and the corners of his mouth were oozing blood. He licked the corners of his lips, shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "I don't hit women, so if you want to vent your anger, vent it."

Gu Feiquan raised the corners of his lips mockingly: "But it's best to ask your father what he has done wrong."

Gu Yanqiu slammed the door and left.

Gu Feiquan looked at her back, his eyes gradually softened from ridicule.

Go ahead and ask, I also want to know what the truth was back then.
