Lin Shilang Gu
Chapter 46
The quality of the hotel is not bad, there is a lot of space in the car, Lin and Gu stand far away from each other in advance, one is at the door and the other is in the corner.Lin Yuewei woke up after taking a step.
Gu Yanqiu glanced at her, hesitated to speak.
Lin Yuewei brought up the previous question: "Where are you going... in this suit?"
Gu Yanqiu did not speak for a long time.
Lin Yuewei knew that it might be abrupt, and the other party should not be able to answer this question, so he pretended that he hadn't asked, and watched the elevator go down intently.
Ding--
Lin Yuewei got closer to the door, so she came out first, followed by Gu Yanqiu, bowing her head to type on the phone screen.
Like strangers, the two left the hotel one after the other. As soon as they left the hotel door, Lin Yuewei felt the phone in her pocket vibrate. She took it out and saw that it was a message from Gu Yanqiu.
【Xi Gu: To meet an elder whom I have known for a long time】
Lin Yuewei didn't look back at her, but stood still in place.
[Two Woods: Do you live here? 】
【Xi Gu: No, in City H】
City H is about two hours' drive from City S where they are now, and its subordinate counties and cities have one of the famous crayfish breeding bases in the country.Lin Yuewei was worried that the pestle would attract attention here, so he walked forward while typing.
[Two woods: so far?Do you have to go out in the middle of the night for entertainment? 】
【Xi Gu: It's not entertainment, it's a personal matter】
【Xi Gu: Watch the road, put your phone away】
Lin Yuewei couldn't help but glance back, and was looking at Gu Yanqiu's eyes. Maybe it's because of her different clothes today. His skin is fair and healthy, the sun has not completely set, and he looks very warm bathed in the sunset.
It's even better if you can smile.
Lin Yuewei put away her mobile phone and ran to the 200-7 11 meters away.
Just as Gu Huai expected, Gu Yanqiu took advantage of this business trip and went to H City to find her former driver, Lao Jiao.She said hello to Lao Jiao in advance, Lao Jiao was going to pick her up at the station, Gu Yanqiu agreed, when Lao Jiao was still working in the Gu family, he had a good relationship with the Gu family, he was Gu Huai's half brother, otherwise he wouldn't be here now Contact every year.
Gu Yanqiu took the intercity high-speed train for an hour, and saw Lao Jiao at the exit, Lao Jiao——Jiao Chunsheng is about the same age as Gu Huai this year, and he has passed the year of knowing his destiny, but he has done a good job in the breeding base these years , has hired a lot of employees, and has begun to take shape. I and my wife moved behind the scenes, bought a house in the city, and the whole family moved here. Life is prosperous, but Gu Huai's company is exhausted from internal and external troubles, and has a new funeral. When he got his wife, Jiao Chun looked much better than Gu Huai when he was angry.
The two didn't dare to recognize each other when they saw each other, they both stared at each other for a while.
Jiao Chunsheng: "Xiaoqiu?"
Gu Yanqiu: "Uncle Jiao."
Jiao Chunsheng looked her face back and forth, and said with a smile: "When I saw you last time, you were only a child. After so many years, you have grown up."
Gu Yanqiu also smiled: "Uncle Jiao is much younger than the last time I saw you."
Jiao Chunsheng: "The mouth is still so sweet."
Jiao Chunsheng led Gu Yanqiu to the parking lot. Gu Yanqiu glanced at the car logo, four circles circled it, and couldn't help but smile again: "Uncle Jiao has made a fortune in recent years."
Jiao Chunsheng was a little complacent, but at the same time said modestly: "Compared to Mr. Gu, it's far behind." He pressed the car lock, and the memory of his previous body was still there. He naturally opened the rear door for Gu Yanqiu and stood by the door to wait. She got in and finally got into the driver's seat and started the car.
"Is Mr. Gu okay?"
"pretty good."
"The last time I called him, I heard that he was coughing badly." Jiao Chunsheng was worried. He had been with Gu Huai for so many years, and he knew that the person had a tough temper. Apart from his wife and daughter, he had no weaknesses.
"When?"
"It was when I delivered the lobster last time." Actually, it wasn't. Jiao Chunsheng heard Gu Huai coughing at the night when Gu Yanqiu questioned Gu Huai, but the conversation that night was a secret.
Gu Yanqiu's heart skipped a beat, didn't Gu Huai say it was a fake?The medicines taken are just health medicines.
"I'll go back and ask him." Gu Yanqiu replied softly.
"That's good." Jiao Chunsheng rubbed the steering wheel with his hand, glanced at Gu Yanqiu's quiet eyes in the rearview mirror, and said, "Xiaoqiu, Mr. Gu is getting old, you should pay more attention to him."
"I will." Gu Yanqiu lowered his eyes, hiding all his emotions.
Jiao Chunsheng was a little anxious when he couldn't see her expression. He used to think that Gu Yanqiu had a heavy heart and looked exactly like Gu Huai in some places. Now after seeing her for so many years, he looks more and more like Gu Huai.If Gu Yanqiu is determined to be an enemy of Gu Huai, then...
Gu Yanqiu felt that the speed of the car was a little unstable, so he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Jiao Chunsheng controlled the speed of the car again, and asked gossipingly, "I heard from your father that you are married?"
"Ah."
"Surnamed Lin?"
"Yes."
"pretty good."
"..."
Jiao Chunsheng is a typical Chinese man, he is clumsy when chatting with the younger generation, and he can't even speak three and a half sentences with his own daughter, let alone Gu Yanqiu who has been away for several years.
He simply stopped talking, he knew what Gu Yanqiu was here for, and he was not a smart person, so what he said was too many mistakes, so it's better not to say it.
The Lin that Jiao Chunsheng said "harassed" Gu Yanqiu again.
[Two Woods: Have you had dinner yet? 】
【Xi Gu: No】
[Two Woods: Are you coming back at night? 】
【Si Gu: Back】
Lin Yuewei took the freshly boiled kettle and poured water into her instant noodles. A message popped up on the lock screen interface. The short word "Hui" made her curl her mouth involuntarily.
【Liu Mu: I bought two barrels of instant noodles】
Gu Yanqiu: "..."
Lin Yuewei felt that her mind might be confused. It is impossible for Gu Yanqiu to go to such a far place without dinner. The trip to and from H city took three or four hours. Even if she only stayed for 10 minutes, it would be at least ten o'clock when she came back.
——Soaked noodles are not good for health, so eat less in the future.
What I just said still rings in my ears.
[System message: Two woods withdrew a message]
Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, hoping she didn't see her stupid moment.
【Xi Gu: Leave me a bucket? 】
Lin Yuewei: "!!!"
【Xi Gu: Just kidding [smile]】
Gu Yanqiu thought that she might not be able to go back until very late at night, so she quickly changed her words. She didn't want Lin Yuewei to stay up late because of waiting for her.
Lin Yuewei looked at this familiar and old smiling expression: "..."
Another person involuntarily appeared in her mind, who also liked to send her this emoji, but one was on QQ and the other was on WeChat. Lin Yuewei was in a complicated mood.
【Two Woods: Send me a message when you come back】
【Xi Gu: OK】
Lin Yuewei pulled out the chair under the table, sat on it sideways, wrapped one arm around the back of the chair, and rested his chin on his arm, "Are you busy with some private business?" "How about I treat you to supper tonight?" "" "When is your car tomorrow?" Lin Yuewei typed and deleted one sentence in the input box, these are not things that can be asked by their current relationship.
Gu Yanqiu didn't wait for Lin Yuewei to reply, nor sent another message.
The instant noodles were ready, Lin Yuewei put the phone aside, turned on the iPad to watch a movie, and ate instant noodles while watching.
At [-]:[-], Gu Yanqiu replied with a simple sentence: [Xi Gu: I'm here, I'm busy]
【Two Woods: OK】
***
Jiao Chunsheng parked the car in the underground garage, and led Gu Yanqiu to the elevator.He bought his house in a mid-to-high-end community, the elevator room, and his house is on the nineteenth floor.
Jiao Chunsheng stood at the door of the house, rubbed his hands together, then took off the key from his trouser waist, and said, "The house is a bit small, don't mind."
"No." Gu Yanqiu smiled.
Jiao Chunsheng opened the door with a key. His wife was watching TV in the living room. Hearing the sound, he turned his head and saw Gu Yanqiu hurried up to meet her. He fetched her slippers and called her daughter in the direction of the inner room: "Zhenzhen, come out and call!" people."
Gu Yanqiu put on the slippers and hurriedly said no need, shouting is probably every child's childhood nightmare, never being able to tell which relatives are not known, plus relatives' children, it would be nice to be able to recognize them all.
Mrs. Jiao smiled at her shyly and asked her what she wanted to drink.
"Plain water is fine, thank you, Auntie."
Jiao Chunsheng's daughter appeared in the living room after her mother yelled for 5 minutes. After being hinted by her mother, she sweetly called out: "Sister Qiu." After that, she ran back to the bedroom.
When Gu Yanqiu went abroad, Jiao Chunsheng's daughter was only 12 years old. After all, they were not from the same class, they each had their own circles, and their relationship was normal before. Seven years later, Jiao Zhenzhen might not even recognize her when she saw her.
Jiao's wife looked at her back, "This child." Then she said to Gu Yanqiu, "She must have gone back to her room to play with the computer. Children are like this now, please forgive me."
Gu Yanqiu said with a smile: "Zhenzhen has grown up a lot, she is very slim."
Mrs. Jiao looked at her kindly and smiled: "It's better that you have changed a little more, just like your mother."
Jiao Chunsheng glared at his wife, only then did Jiao's wife realize that she had said something wrong, and hurriedly found an excuse to get up and go to work.
There were only the two of them left in the living room, Jiao Chunsheng knew it well, but the play still had to be done: "You said on the phone that you have something important to talk to me about, what is it?"
Gu Yanqiu asked: "Is there a study? Or a quieter place."
study.
Gu Yanqiu asked straight to the point: "Uncle Jiao, when did you meet my dad?"
Jiao Chunsheng showed an expression of reminiscence, and said: "It was about 30 years ago, I don't remember exactly how many years ago, your dad was in his senior year at that time."
Gu Yanqiu thought that sure enough, Jiao Chunsheng knew Gu Huai before her mother.In other words, Jiao Chunsheng should be one of the insiders of those things back then.In fact, apart from Jiao Chunsheng, according to what Gu Huai said, he met her mother when he started a business with his brothers. Those brothers also knew something more or less. Outside the company, the others either immigrated abroad or passed away due to accidents. The one in the company is Mr. Wu who disagrees with Gu Huai on the company's development. The brothers back then no longer exist. Go to Mr. Wu for these private matters.
"Do you know He Songjun?"
"Yes, your father's girlfriend back then."
"What time period is that year?"
"I can't remember the specifics. I remember your father said that He Songjun confessed to her when he graduated from senior year. They dated for a year or two, and then they broke up." Jiao Chunsheng said, "I know your father married someone else. You may not be able to accept things, but at that time the two of them did reach the point where they were talking about marriage."
Jiao Chunsheng sighed: "It can only be said that good luck tricks people."
"So my dad is indeed my mother who I met later? And he abandoned He Songjun who was already talking about marriage?" Gu Yanqiu stared at Jiao Chunsheng sharply.
Jiao Chunsheng met her eyes, and for a moment he felt that he saw the old Gu Huai.Jiao Chunsheng pinched his palm with his fingers behind his back, at least he didn't show his secrets under Gu Yanqiu's gaze.
Jiao Chunsheng frowned, and said: "You can't say that, after all, he is not married. If he marries He Songjun, he will harm her." Although he is still married to He Songjun now.
"Can you tell me the details?"
From Jiao Chunsheng, Gu Yanqiu learned some details that he had never heard of before.Although Gu Huai and Gu's mother have a very good relationship, they are different from ordinary people. Gu Huai never sweetly mentions the process of his acquaintance and love with Gu's mother. Sometimes Gu Yanqiu wonders if they don't love each other at all, but they The two really treat each other very well, and it can be seen that they are sincere.
Jiao Chunsheng said: "The first time Mr. Gu met his wife was on a snowy day. At that time, he had just finished socializing, drank wine, and sat in the back seat with his eyes closed. The road was slippery in snowy weather, and the snow was still reflective. , I drove very carefully for fear of accidents. But something happened. I stared at the white road for a long time. My eyes felt uncomfortable and I couldn’t see clearly. So I closed my eyes hard. Suddenly a person appeared. I was so frightened that I stepped on the brakes, but the braking distance was long in snowy weather, and that person fell down in front of the car. I broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly opened the door to get out of the car. Mr. Gu also woke up when he saw it Liquor, get out of the car with me."
It was very cold. At that time, Mama Gu, who was still very young, was wrapped in a black down jacket. She was extremely thin. She didn't wear gloves on her hands. Her slender and beautiful hands were propped on the snow, and she couldn't tell the difference between the snow and her skin. which white.
It was snowing heavily, and when Jiao Chunsheng and Gu Huai got out of the car, she had already been covered with a thin layer of snow, which fell on her eyelashes and lips. Her face was terribly pale, and she looked almost dead.
Jiao Chunsheng was scared out of his wits.
Gu Huai squatted down in front of her, checked her breath, and found that although it was weak, it was still there. She couldn't see where the injury was on her body, so she reached out to hug her and send her to the hospital.
"Just as Mr. Gu stretched out his hand, the wife suddenly woke up."
- I'm fine.
When the young mother Gu opened her mouth, there was finally a little heat in the air.The first time she woke up, she touched her wrist, as if there was something very precious there, then she refused the help of Gu Huai and Jiao Chunsheng, and sat up little by little with her arms propped up.
Her facial features are very pale, and so are her eyebrows. When she endured the pain, her slender eyebrows seemed to frown, but there was some kind of stubbornness.
She flicked the snowflakes on her bangs, slowly got up, and looked over with eyes as deep as a secluded pool.
Jiao Chunsheng took two small steps back, lost his mind for a while.
At that time, Jiao Chunsheng felt that he was the most beautiful person in the world he had ever seen.Never before, and never will.
"After my wife got up, she left by herself. Mr. Gu wanted to take her to the hospital, but my wife refused. When she left, I saw that one of her legs was limping, as if she was injured."
"and after?"
"At first we thought it was a chance meeting, but I also thought it was a beautiful dream. I saw some fairy. I thought it was a dream, but Mr. Gu didn't. When he went back that night, Mr. Gu couldn't forget his wife. He even sent someone to find his wife , but we only know that she wore a black down jacket that night, and we don’t know her name or where she came from.”
Jiao Chunsheng: "Three months later, we saw her again."
Gu Yanqiu asked, "Where is it?"
Jiao Chunsheng said: "At a party, I didn't know whose female companion was, and Mr. Gu asked her name. After that, I don't know. I know Mr. Gu went to find her in private, and deliberately avoided me. After knowing my wife for about a year, Mr. Gu broke up with He Songjun, and after another year, Mr. Gu and his wife got married, and then we had you."
"You said my dad was already courting my mom when he was dating He Songjun?"
"This... should not be."
Gu Yanqiu suddenly got angry and approached him, "Didn't you say that you don't know what they are doing in private?"
Jiao Chunsheng's throat tightened: "I don't know, but I believe in Mr. Gu's character."
"He has a wife and a new funeral, and he can't wait to marry a new lover. Is this what he is?"
"Do not……"
"What isn't it? Why are you inconsistent in what you say?"
Jiao Chunsheng was flustered by her questioning.
——She is very shrewd, whether she notices the loopholes in your words or not, she will definitely provoke you, so you just insist on trusting me, this is in line with your personality, don't think of other words, it will be counterproductive.
Gu Huai's words rang in his ears, Jiao Chunsheng collected himself, and said, "Mr. Gu saved my life before, no matter what he decides, I will trust him."
Gu Yanqiu looked at him.
Jiao Chunsheng looked back not to be outdone.
Gu Yanqiu returned to her original position and said, "Do you know where my mother is from?"
"do not know."
"Didn't the woman's relatives come when you got married?"
"No."
"Where are your friends?"
"nor."
"I don't believe that someone as defensive as my dad would not have checked."
"Mr. Gu may have checked, but he didn't tell me." Jiao Chunsheng said anxiously, "You also said that Mr. Gu is a very defensive person, how could he tell me such a thing."
……
When Gu Yanqiu returned home from Jiao Chunsheng's house, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. She bought a ticket for eleven o'clock, took a taxi, and went straight to the high-speed rail station.
Along the way, her thoughts were surging, and there were too many details that she needed to sort out one by one.
She came to Jiao Chunsheng, on the one hand, to know some things that Gu Huai could not tell her, and on the other hand, to confirm more important things. As she knew, Gu Huai was a cautious person. It is impossible for Gu Huai not to think that she will come to Jiao Chunsheng next, so what Jiao Chunsheng said now is likely to be instructed by Gu Huai. The truth she knows is what Gu Huai let her know. Gu Huai didn't let her know, and Jiao Chunsheng wouldn't say a word.Although Jiao Chunsheng is not smart, he is very sincere. He would rather not say a word under his own pressure than say a word.
Gu Yanqiu analyzed the truth of Jiao Chunsheng's words. The first meeting between her parents should be true. Gu Yanqiu couldn't think of a reason for the fraud. As for the other things, such as gatherings, it might be intentional. Come out to mislead her.Since her mother has neither relatives nor friends in the local area, how could she appear at the party that Gu Huai would attend.
Gu Yanqiu thought of another possibility, does she really have no friends?Not to mention that it was more than 30 years ago. After Mama Gu got married, she never left the door. Even if she has friends, once the door is closed, who would know?
30 years ago...
Gu Yanqiu stroked the Buddhist beads on his wrist and felt a headache.
***
Jiao Chunsheng sent Gu Yanqiu to the taxi, wiped the sweat off his brow, and called Gu Huai.
"Mr. Gu, I just sent Miss away."
Gu Huai asked: "What do you say?"
Jiao Chunsheng: "I followed what you told me."
Gu Huai: "Did she believe it?"
Jiao Chunsheng sighed: "I don't know either. I was scared to death. I should have said nothing that I shouldn't have said."
However, Gu Huai suddenly let out a "hiss" and took a light breath, as if very annoyed.
"what happened?"
"I was fooled by her." Gu Huai was annoyed but also a little relieved, "I actually plotted against me. She guessed that I would talk to you. This time, when you come here and hear that you agree with me, it must be more Convinced we were lying."
"But... wouldn't it be worse if they were inconsistent?"
"Yes." Gu Huai said, "She has already planted the seeds of doubt, and she will never believe it anyway. She only believes what she found. I know that she hired a private detective and visited all over the country. Sooner or later, she will Find her mother's hometown."
"Isn't it impossible to hide it? Do we want to..." Jiao Chunsheng didn't know the whole truth, he only knew that what he knew was different from what Gu Huai taught him.
Gu Huai interrupted him: "No, the past has long been buried with a pile of loess. If possible, I will keep this secret in the coffin."
"President Gu..."
"Take a good rest, you have worked hard. If you really can't hide it..."
Gu Huai squeezed the center of her brows, and sighed: "It's as late as you can find out."
***
Gu Yanqiu returned to the hotel at almost one o'clock in the morning, dragged his heavy feet and swiped his card to enter the door, slumped on the sofa for a while, sat up, took the phone, Lin Yuewei replied "OK" after she said she was busy, and then did not got the news.
Gu Yanqiu thought for a while, typed two words in the chat box, and sent.
Lin Yuewei supported her face with one hand, and wrote in a notebook with the other hand. The computer screen was on, reflecting her focused face.
A message came into the mobile phone that was placed aside.
Lin Yuewei glanced over there, but didn't move. Her cell phone had rang countless times this night. There were friends, relatives, relatives of friends, friends of relatives, everyone. Lin Yuewei was disappointed every time she looked at it. .
Lin Yuewei finished writing the summary at hand, took the mobile phone, maintained a peaceful mind, and unlocked the screen with the psychological expectation that what he saw was a WeChat advertisement push.
【Xi Gu: Good night】
Lin Yuewei: "!!!"
Can be considered back.
[Two Woods: Have you eaten? 】
The mobile phone on the bedside table flickered, but no one paid attention to it, and the sound of shower water came from the bathroom in the back.
Gu Yanqiu put on his pajamas and came out, his eyebrows raised when he saw the news.
【Xi Gu: You haven't slept yet? 】
Through the transparent glass door, Lin Yuewei caught a glimpse of the mobile phone screen on the sink outside. She turned off the shower head above her head, wiped her hands on the towel on the edge of the bathtub, stepped out with one foot, and stepped barefoot on the tiled floor. , typed:
【Two Woods: I'm learning】
【Xi Gu: Amazing】
【Xi Gu: Let me blow my hair】
[Two Woods: Have you had dinner yet? 】
【Liu Mu: I left you a bucket of instant noodles】
【Two Woods: If you want to eat, I will send it to you】
As soon as Gu Yanqiu plugged in the hair dryer, her cell phone rang one after another. She was already too hungry and couldn't feel her stomach, but the other party's kindness was hard to repay, and maybe she had waited for so long, so he shouldn't refuse her kindness.
【Xi Gu: I'll get it myself】
【Two woods: I'll send it down, you're safe there】
【Xi Gu: Okay】
Lin Yuewei hurriedly took a shower, put on her clothes, and put on her hat, for fear that Gu Yanqiu would fall asleep if she was late.
Gu Yanqiu didn't even finish blowing his hair when the doorbell rang.
So fast?
"Here we come, please wait a moment." Gu Yanqiu stroked his half-dried hair, put the hair dryer back to its original position, and was about to go out to open the door, but halfway through, he folded back, combed his hair in front of the mirror, and put on a coat again , and then opened the door.
"Please come in."
Lin Yuewei entered the door. Gu Yanqiu had just taken a shower, and the scent of shower gel and shampoo on her body temporarily overwhelmed the scent of agarwood on her body. The completely different warm scent invaded her senses in an instant, making her dizzy and fascinated.
Gu Yanqiu looked at her, stunned, and only uttered a single syllable: "Mmm..."
She was thinking of an appropriate name for Lin Yuewei. Miss Lin couldn't do it, Lin Yuewei was weird.
Lin Yuewei's hairs stood on end by her protracted "um", his throat was tight, and his heart was beating fast. He recklessly stuffed the instant noodles in her hand and was about to run away: "Hurry up!" Let's eat, I'm going upstairs first."
Lin Yuewei turned to pull the door, but felt a backward force in his arm.
She froze.
Lin Yuewei turned her head back, her gaze slowly moved down her arm, Gu Yanqiu stretched out his hand and gently held her wrist, looking over her eyes seemed to hide a pool of gentle autumn water.
The author has something to say: the time to bet on the attack has not yet come, everyone should not play Zhang, you must firmly believe that the attack you stand on is the attack!
Gu Yanqiu glanced at her, hesitated to speak.
Lin Yuewei brought up the previous question: "Where are you going... in this suit?"
Gu Yanqiu did not speak for a long time.
Lin Yuewei knew that it might be abrupt, and the other party should not be able to answer this question, so he pretended that he hadn't asked, and watched the elevator go down intently.
Ding--
Lin Yuewei got closer to the door, so she came out first, followed by Gu Yanqiu, bowing her head to type on the phone screen.
Like strangers, the two left the hotel one after the other. As soon as they left the hotel door, Lin Yuewei felt the phone in her pocket vibrate. She took it out and saw that it was a message from Gu Yanqiu.
【Xi Gu: To meet an elder whom I have known for a long time】
Lin Yuewei didn't look back at her, but stood still in place.
[Two Woods: Do you live here? 】
【Xi Gu: No, in City H】
City H is about two hours' drive from City S where they are now, and its subordinate counties and cities have one of the famous crayfish breeding bases in the country.Lin Yuewei was worried that the pestle would attract attention here, so he walked forward while typing.
[Two woods: so far?Do you have to go out in the middle of the night for entertainment? 】
【Xi Gu: It's not entertainment, it's a personal matter】
【Xi Gu: Watch the road, put your phone away】
Lin Yuewei couldn't help but glance back, and was looking at Gu Yanqiu's eyes. Maybe it's because of her different clothes today. His skin is fair and healthy, the sun has not completely set, and he looks very warm bathed in the sunset.
It's even better if you can smile.
Lin Yuewei put away her mobile phone and ran to the 200-7 11 meters away.
Just as Gu Huai expected, Gu Yanqiu took advantage of this business trip and went to H City to find her former driver, Lao Jiao.She said hello to Lao Jiao in advance, Lao Jiao was going to pick her up at the station, Gu Yanqiu agreed, when Lao Jiao was still working in the Gu family, he had a good relationship with the Gu family, he was Gu Huai's half brother, otherwise he wouldn't be here now Contact every year.
Gu Yanqiu took the intercity high-speed train for an hour, and saw Lao Jiao at the exit, Lao Jiao——Jiao Chunsheng is about the same age as Gu Huai this year, and he has passed the year of knowing his destiny, but he has done a good job in the breeding base these years , has hired a lot of employees, and has begun to take shape. I and my wife moved behind the scenes, bought a house in the city, and the whole family moved here. Life is prosperous, but Gu Huai's company is exhausted from internal and external troubles, and has a new funeral. When he got his wife, Jiao Chun looked much better than Gu Huai when he was angry.
The two didn't dare to recognize each other when they saw each other, they both stared at each other for a while.
Jiao Chunsheng: "Xiaoqiu?"
Gu Yanqiu: "Uncle Jiao."
Jiao Chunsheng looked her face back and forth, and said with a smile: "When I saw you last time, you were only a child. After so many years, you have grown up."
Gu Yanqiu also smiled: "Uncle Jiao is much younger than the last time I saw you."
Jiao Chunsheng: "The mouth is still so sweet."
Jiao Chunsheng led Gu Yanqiu to the parking lot. Gu Yanqiu glanced at the car logo, four circles circled it, and couldn't help but smile again: "Uncle Jiao has made a fortune in recent years."
Jiao Chunsheng was a little complacent, but at the same time said modestly: "Compared to Mr. Gu, it's far behind." He pressed the car lock, and the memory of his previous body was still there. He naturally opened the rear door for Gu Yanqiu and stood by the door to wait. She got in and finally got into the driver's seat and started the car.
"Is Mr. Gu okay?"
"pretty good."
"The last time I called him, I heard that he was coughing badly." Jiao Chunsheng was worried. He had been with Gu Huai for so many years, and he knew that the person had a tough temper. Apart from his wife and daughter, he had no weaknesses.
"When?"
"It was when I delivered the lobster last time." Actually, it wasn't. Jiao Chunsheng heard Gu Huai coughing at the night when Gu Yanqiu questioned Gu Huai, but the conversation that night was a secret.
Gu Yanqiu's heart skipped a beat, didn't Gu Huai say it was a fake?The medicines taken are just health medicines.
"I'll go back and ask him." Gu Yanqiu replied softly.
"That's good." Jiao Chunsheng rubbed the steering wheel with his hand, glanced at Gu Yanqiu's quiet eyes in the rearview mirror, and said, "Xiaoqiu, Mr. Gu is getting old, you should pay more attention to him."
"I will." Gu Yanqiu lowered his eyes, hiding all his emotions.
Jiao Chunsheng was a little anxious when he couldn't see her expression. He used to think that Gu Yanqiu had a heavy heart and looked exactly like Gu Huai in some places. Now after seeing her for so many years, he looks more and more like Gu Huai.If Gu Yanqiu is determined to be an enemy of Gu Huai, then...
Gu Yanqiu felt that the speed of the car was a little unstable, so he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Jiao Chunsheng controlled the speed of the car again, and asked gossipingly, "I heard from your father that you are married?"
"Ah."
"Surnamed Lin?"
"Yes."

Jiao Chunsheng is a typical Chinese man, he is clumsy when chatting with the younger generation, and he can't even speak three and a half sentences with his own daughter, let alone Gu Yanqiu who has been away for several years.
He simply stopped talking, he knew what Gu Yanqiu was here for, and he was not a smart person, so what he said was too many mistakes, so it's better not to say it.
The Lin that Jiao Chunsheng said "harassed" Gu Yanqiu again.
[Two Woods: Have you had dinner yet? 】
【Xi Gu: No】
[Two Woods: Are you coming back at night? 】
【Si Gu: Back】
Lin Yuewei took the freshly boiled kettle and poured water into her instant noodles. A message popped up on the lock screen interface. The short word "Hui" made her curl her mouth involuntarily.
【Liu Mu: I bought two barrels of instant noodles】
Gu Yanqiu: "..."
Lin Yuewei felt that her mind might be confused. It is impossible for Gu Yanqiu to go to such a far place without dinner. The trip to and from H city took three or four hours. Even if she only stayed for 10 minutes, it would be at least ten o'clock when she came back.
——Soaked noodles are not good for health, so eat less in the future.
What I just said still rings in my ears.
[System message: Two woods withdrew a message]
Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, hoping she didn't see her stupid moment.
【Xi Gu: Leave me a bucket? 】
Lin Yuewei: "!!!"
【Xi Gu: Just kidding [smile]】
Gu Yanqiu thought that she might not be able to go back until very late at night, so she quickly changed her words. She didn't want Lin Yuewei to stay up late because of waiting for her.
Lin Yuewei looked at this familiar and old smiling expression: "..."
Another person involuntarily appeared in her mind, who also liked to send her this emoji, but one was on QQ and the other was on WeChat. Lin Yuewei was in a complicated mood.
【Two Woods: Send me a message when you come back】
【Xi Gu: OK】
Lin Yuewei pulled out the chair under the table, sat on it sideways, wrapped one arm around the back of the chair, and rested his chin on his arm, "Are you busy with some private business?" "How about I treat you to supper tonight?" "" "When is your car tomorrow?" Lin Yuewei typed and deleted one sentence in the input box, these are not things that can be asked by their current relationship.
Gu Yanqiu didn't wait for Lin Yuewei to reply, nor sent another message.
The instant noodles were ready, Lin Yuewei put the phone aside, turned on the iPad to watch a movie, and ate instant noodles while watching.
At [-]:[-], Gu Yanqiu replied with a simple sentence: [Xi Gu: I'm here, I'm busy]
【Two Woods: OK】
***
Jiao Chunsheng parked the car in the underground garage, and led Gu Yanqiu to the elevator.He bought his house in a mid-to-high-end community, the elevator room, and his house is on the nineteenth floor.
Jiao Chunsheng stood at the door of the house, rubbed his hands together, then took off the key from his trouser waist, and said, "The house is a bit small, don't mind."
"No." Gu Yanqiu smiled.
Jiao Chunsheng opened the door with a key. His wife was watching TV in the living room. Hearing the sound, he turned his head and saw Gu Yanqiu hurried up to meet her. He fetched her slippers and called her daughter in the direction of the inner room: "Zhenzhen, come out and call!" people."
Gu Yanqiu put on the slippers and hurriedly said no need, shouting is probably every child's childhood nightmare, never being able to tell which relatives are not known, plus relatives' children, it would be nice to be able to recognize them all.
Mrs. Jiao smiled at her shyly and asked her what she wanted to drink.
"Plain water is fine, thank you, Auntie."
Jiao Chunsheng's daughter appeared in the living room after her mother yelled for 5 minutes. After being hinted by her mother, she sweetly called out: "Sister Qiu." After that, she ran back to the bedroom.
When Gu Yanqiu went abroad, Jiao Chunsheng's daughter was only 12 years old. After all, they were not from the same class, they each had their own circles, and their relationship was normal before. Seven years later, Jiao Zhenzhen might not even recognize her when she saw her.
Jiao's wife looked at her back, "This child." Then she said to Gu Yanqiu, "She must have gone back to her room to play with the computer. Children are like this now, please forgive me."
Gu Yanqiu said with a smile: "Zhenzhen has grown up a lot, she is very slim."
Mrs. Jiao looked at her kindly and smiled: "It's better that you have changed a little more, just like your mother."
Jiao Chunsheng glared at his wife, only then did Jiao's wife realize that she had said something wrong, and hurriedly found an excuse to get up and go to work.
There were only the two of them left in the living room, Jiao Chunsheng knew it well, but the play still had to be done: "You said on the phone that you have something important to talk to me about, what is it?"
Gu Yanqiu asked: "Is there a study? Or a quieter place."
study.
Gu Yanqiu asked straight to the point: "Uncle Jiao, when did you meet my dad?"
Jiao Chunsheng showed an expression of reminiscence, and said: "It was about 30 years ago, I don't remember exactly how many years ago, your dad was in his senior year at that time."
Gu Yanqiu thought that sure enough, Jiao Chunsheng knew Gu Huai before her mother.In other words, Jiao Chunsheng should be one of the insiders of those things back then.In fact, apart from Jiao Chunsheng, according to what Gu Huai said, he met her mother when he started a business with his brothers. Those brothers also knew something more or less. Outside the company, the others either immigrated abroad or passed away due to accidents. The one in the company is Mr. Wu who disagrees with Gu Huai on the company's development. The brothers back then no longer exist. Go to Mr. Wu for these private matters.
"Do you know He Songjun?"
"Yes, your father's girlfriend back then."
"What time period is that year?"
"I can't remember the specifics. I remember your father said that He Songjun confessed to her when he graduated from senior year. They dated for a year or two, and then they broke up." Jiao Chunsheng said, "I know your father married someone else. You may not be able to accept things, but at that time the two of them did reach the point where they were talking about marriage."
Jiao Chunsheng sighed: "It can only be said that good luck tricks people."
"So my dad is indeed my mother who I met later? And he abandoned He Songjun who was already talking about marriage?" Gu Yanqiu stared at Jiao Chunsheng sharply.
Jiao Chunsheng met her eyes, and for a moment he felt that he saw the old Gu Huai.Jiao Chunsheng pinched his palm with his fingers behind his back, at least he didn't show his secrets under Gu Yanqiu's gaze.
Jiao Chunsheng frowned, and said: "You can't say that, after all, he is not married. If he marries He Songjun, he will harm her." Although he is still married to He Songjun now.
"Can you tell me the details?"
From Jiao Chunsheng, Gu Yanqiu learned some details that he had never heard of before.Although Gu Huai and Gu's mother have a very good relationship, they are different from ordinary people. Gu Huai never sweetly mentions the process of his acquaintance and love with Gu's mother. Sometimes Gu Yanqiu wonders if they don't love each other at all, but they The two really treat each other very well, and it can be seen that they are sincere.
Jiao Chunsheng said: "The first time Mr. Gu met his wife was on a snowy day. At that time, he had just finished socializing, drank wine, and sat in the back seat with his eyes closed. The road was slippery in snowy weather, and the snow was still reflective. , I drove very carefully for fear of accidents. But something happened. I stared at the white road for a long time. My eyes felt uncomfortable and I couldn’t see clearly. So I closed my eyes hard. Suddenly a person appeared. I was so frightened that I stepped on the brakes, but the braking distance was long in snowy weather, and that person fell down in front of the car. I broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly opened the door to get out of the car. Mr. Gu also woke up when he saw it Liquor, get out of the car with me."
It was very cold. At that time, Mama Gu, who was still very young, was wrapped in a black down jacket. She was extremely thin. She didn't wear gloves on her hands. Her slender and beautiful hands were propped on the snow, and she couldn't tell the difference between the snow and her skin. which white.
It was snowing heavily, and when Jiao Chunsheng and Gu Huai got out of the car, she had already been covered with a thin layer of snow, which fell on her eyelashes and lips. Her face was terribly pale, and she looked almost dead.
Jiao Chunsheng was scared out of his wits.
Gu Huai squatted down in front of her, checked her breath, and found that although it was weak, it was still there. She couldn't see where the injury was on her body, so she reached out to hug her and send her to the hospital.
"Just as Mr. Gu stretched out his hand, the wife suddenly woke up."
- I'm fine.
When the young mother Gu opened her mouth, there was finally a little heat in the air.The first time she woke up, she touched her wrist, as if there was something very precious there, then she refused the help of Gu Huai and Jiao Chunsheng, and sat up little by little with her arms propped up.
Her facial features are very pale, and so are her eyebrows. When she endured the pain, her slender eyebrows seemed to frown, but there was some kind of stubbornness.
She flicked the snowflakes on her bangs, slowly got up, and looked over with eyes as deep as a secluded pool.
Jiao Chunsheng took two small steps back, lost his mind for a while.
At that time, Jiao Chunsheng felt that he was the most beautiful person in the world he had ever seen.Never before, and never will.
"After my wife got up, she left by herself. Mr. Gu wanted to take her to the hospital, but my wife refused. When she left, I saw that one of her legs was limping, as if she was injured."
"and after?"
"At first we thought it was a chance meeting, but I also thought it was a beautiful dream. I saw some fairy. I thought it was a dream, but Mr. Gu didn't. When he went back that night, Mr. Gu couldn't forget his wife. He even sent someone to find his wife , but we only know that she wore a black down jacket that night, and we don’t know her name or where she came from.”
Jiao Chunsheng: "Three months later, we saw her again."
Gu Yanqiu asked, "Where is it?"
Jiao Chunsheng said: "At a party, I didn't know whose female companion was, and Mr. Gu asked her name. After that, I don't know. I know Mr. Gu went to find her in private, and deliberately avoided me. After knowing my wife for about a year, Mr. Gu broke up with He Songjun, and after another year, Mr. Gu and his wife got married, and then we had you."
"You said my dad was already courting my mom when he was dating He Songjun?"
"This... should not be."
Gu Yanqiu suddenly got angry and approached him, "Didn't you say that you don't know what they are doing in private?"
Jiao Chunsheng's throat tightened: "I don't know, but I believe in Mr. Gu's character."
"He has a wife and a new funeral, and he can't wait to marry a new lover. Is this what he is?"
"Do not……"
"What isn't it? Why are you inconsistent in what you say?"
Jiao Chunsheng was flustered by her questioning.
——She is very shrewd, whether she notices the loopholes in your words or not, she will definitely provoke you, so you just insist on trusting me, this is in line with your personality, don't think of other words, it will be counterproductive.
Gu Huai's words rang in his ears, Jiao Chunsheng collected himself, and said, "Mr. Gu saved my life before, no matter what he decides, I will trust him."
Gu Yanqiu looked at him.
Jiao Chunsheng looked back not to be outdone.
Gu Yanqiu returned to her original position and said, "Do you know where my mother is from?"
"do not know."
"Didn't the woman's relatives come when you got married?"
"No."
"Where are your friends?"
"nor."
"I don't believe that someone as defensive as my dad would not have checked."
"Mr. Gu may have checked, but he didn't tell me." Jiao Chunsheng said anxiously, "You also said that Mr. Gu is a very defensive person, how could he tell me such a thing."
……
When Gu Yanqiu returned home from Jiao Chunsheng's house, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. She bought a ticket for eleven o'clock, took a taxi, and went straight to the high-speed rail station.
Along the way, her thoughts were surging, and there were too many details that she needed to sort out one by one.
She came to Jiao Chunsheng, on the one hand, to know some things that Gu Huai could not tell her, and on the other hand, to confirm more important things. As she knew, Gu Huai was a cautious person. It is impossible for Gu Huai not to think that she will come to Jiao Chunsheng next, so what Jiao Chunsheng said now is likely to be instructed by Gu Huai. The truth she knows is what Gu Huai let her know. Gu Huai didn't let her know, and Jiao Chunsheng wouldn't say a word.Although Jiao Chunsheng is not smart, he is very sincere. He would rather not say a word under his own pressure than say a word.
Gu Yanqiu analyzed the truth of Jiao Chunsheng's words. The first meeting between her parents should be true. Gu Yanqiu couldn't think of a reason for the fraud. As for the other things, such as gatherings, it might be intentional. Come out to mislead her.Since her mother has neither relatives nor friends in the local area, how could she appear at the party that Gu Huai would attend.
Gu Yanqiu thought of another possibility, does she really have no friends?Not to mention that it was more than 30 years ago. After Mama Gu got married, she never left the door. Even if she has friends, once the door is closed, who would know?
30 years ago...
Gu Yanqiu stroked the Buddhist beads on his wrist and felt a headache.
***
Jiao Chunsheng sent Gu Yanqiu to the taxi, wiped the sweat off his brow, and called Gu Huai.
"Mr. Gu, I just sent Miss away."
Gu Huai asked: "What do you say?"
Jiao Chunsheng: "I followed what you told me."
Gu Huai: "Did she believe it?"
Jiao Chunsheng sighed: "I don't know either. I was scared to death. I should have said nothing that I shouldn't have said."
However, Gu Huai suddenly let out a "hiss" and took a light breath, as if very annoyed.
"what happened?"
"I was fooled by her." Gu Huai was annoyed but also a little relieved, "I actually plotted against me. She guessed that I would talk to you. This time, when you come here and hear that you agree with me, it must be more Convinced we were lying."
"But... wouldn't it be worse if they were inconsistent?"
"Yes." Gu Huai said, "She has already planted the seeds of doubt, and she will never believe it anyway. She only believes what she found. I know that she hired a private detective and visited all over the country. Sooner or later, she will Find her mother's hometown."
"Isn't it impossible to hide it? Do we want to..." Jiao Chunsheng didn't know the whole truth, he only knew that what he knew was different from what Gu Huai taught him.
Gu Huai interrupted him: "No, the past has long been buried with a pile of loess. If possible, I will keep this secret in the coffin."
"President Gu..."
"Take a good rest, you have worked hard. If you really can't hide it..."
Gu Huai squeezed the center of her brows, and sighed: "It's as late as you can find out."
***
Gu Yanqiu returned to the hotel at almost one o'clock in the morning, dragged his heavy feet and swiped his card to enter the door, slumped on the sofa for a while, sat up, took the phone, Lin Yuewei replied "OK" after she said she was busy, and then did not got the news.
Gu Yanqiu thought for a while, typed two words in the chat box, and sent.
Lin Yuewei supported her face with one hand, and wrote in a notebook with the other hand. The computer screen was on, reflecting her focused face.
A message came into the mobile phone that was placed aside.
Lin Yuewei glanced over there, but didn't move. Her cell phone had rang countless times this night. There were friends, relatives, relatives of friends, friends of relatives, everyone. Lin Yuewei was disappointed every time she looked at it. .
Lin Yuewei finished writing the summary at hand, took the mobile phone, maintained a peaceful mind, and unlocked the screen with the psychological expectation that what he saw was a WeChat advertisement push.
【Xi Gu: Good night】
Lin Yuewei: "!!!"
Can be considered back.
[Two Woods: Have you eaten? 】
The mobile phone on the bedside table flickered, but no one paid attention to it, and the sound of shower water came from the bathroom in the back.
Gu Yanqiu put on his pajamas and came out, his eyebrows raised when he saw the news.
【Xi Gu: You haven't slept yet? 】
Through the transparent glass door, Lin Yuewei caught a glimpse of the mobile phone screen on the sink outside. She turned off the shower head above her head, wiped her hands on the towel on the edge of the bathtub, stepped out with one foot, and stepped barefoot on the tiled floor. , typed:
【Two Woods: I'm learning】
【Xi Gu: Amazing】
【Xi Gu: Let me blow my hair】
[Two Woods: Have you had dinner yet? 】
【Liu Mu: I left you a bucket of instant noodles】
【Two Woods: If you want to eat, I will send it to you】
As soon as Gu Yanqiu plugged in the hair dryer, her cell phone rang one after another. She was already too hungry and couldn't feel her stomach, but the other party's kindness was hard to repay, and maybe she had waited for so long, so he shouldn't refuse her kindness.
【Xi Gu: I'll get it myself】
【Two woods: I'll send it down, you're safe there】
【Xi Gu: Okay】
Lin Yuewei hurriedly took a shower, put on her clothes, and put on her hat, for fear that Gu Yanqiu would fall asleep if she was late.
Gu Yanqiu didn't even finish blowing his hair when the doorbell rang.
So fast?
"Here we come, please wait a moment." Gu Yanqiu stroked his half-dried hair, put the hair dryer back to its original position, and was about to go out to open the door, but halfway through, he folded back, combed his hair in front of the mirror, and put on a coat again , and then opened the door.
"Please come in."
Lin Yuewei entered the door. Gu Yanqiu had just taken a shower, and the scent of shower gel and shampoo on her body temporarily overwhelmed the scent of agarwood on her body. The completely different warm scent invaded her senses in an instant, making her dizzy and fascinated.
Gu Yanqiu looked at her, stunned, and only uttered a single syllable: "Mmm..."
She was thinking of an appropriate name for Lin Yuewei. Miss Lin couldn't do it, Lin Yuewei was weird.
Lin Yuewei's hairs stood on end by her protracted "um", his throat was tight, and his heart was beating fast. He recklessly stuffed the instant noodles in her hand and was about to run away: "Hurry up!" Let's eat, I'm going upstairs first."
Lin Yuewei turned to pull the door, but felt a backward force in his arm.
She froze.
Lin Yuewei turned her head back, her gaze slowly moved down her arm, Gu Yanqiu stretched out his hand and gently held her wrist, looking over her eyes seemed to hide a pool of gentle autumn water.
The author has something to say: the time to bet on the attack has not yet come, everyone should not play Zhang, you must firmly believe that the attack you stand on is the attack!
