Chapter 824 Gu Shiyuan had plastic surgery
Russell Western Restaurant.

When Zhan Mochen walked in with Si Yejing and Gu Wan, the manager and waiter were already waiting at the door.

Gu Wan saw it and followed Zhan Mochen inside. She turned her head slightly and smiled at him: "It's hard to get a seat in this restaurant. Brother Mochen, you are so awesome."

The elegant western restaurant was very quiet. Gu Wan's voice was not loud, but it was enough for Zhan Mochen to hear clearly.

Zhan Mochen, however, acted as if he hadn't heard anything and strode forward without even looking at Gu Wan.

Gu Wan's expression froze slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

She didn't expect Zhan Mochen to look at her differently because of this deliberate flattery. She just made sure that she should say more during this meal.

Now that she was sure, Zhan Mochen really just asked her to follow him.

The restaurant manager gave them a seat for four by the window.

There are only five tables in the entire hall, which are far apart from each other. It not only looks spacious but also ensures the privacy of the guests.

Zhan Mochen and Si Yejing sat opposite each other. Gu Wan hesitated for a moment and finally sat next to Si Yejing.

The ingredients of this Western restaurant focus on steak and seafood. Zhan Mochen ordered a steak suitable for children for Si Yejing, ordered a few more signature dishes, and handed the menu to Gu Wan.

Gu Wan took the order and sat quietly listening to Zhan Mochen and Si Yejing talking.

Seeing that she was quite sensible, Zhan Mochen didn't chase her away. He looked at Si Yejing with concern and asked, "How have you been at school these days? Have any teachers or classmates given you any trouble?"

"No."

Si Yejing shook his head, remembering what happened that day, his eyes were filled with sincere gratitude: "Thank you for standing firmly by our side that day. I will definitely feel very proud to have a father like you every year."

"I am also happy and proud that Nuannuan and Suisui have a friend like you."

Zhan Mochen smiled and nodded, but he also felt pity for the little boy in front of him who sincerely thanked him.

Gu Shiyuan said that Si Yejing's parents were gone long ago. He must have been very sad when Gu Shiyuan criticized him without asking any questions that day, right?
Zhan Mochen sighed slightly, wanting to comfort Si Yejing and say a few good words for Gu Shiyuan, but he felt that his identity might not be suitable.

While hesitating, the waiter began to serve the dishes.

Zhan Mochen had no choice but to take back what he said and set the dinner plate for Si Yejing himself.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhan."

Si Yejing politely thanked him, laid out his napkin skillfully, and started eating.

Zhan Mochen was originally going to help Si Yejing cut the steak, but he soon discovered that Si Yejing looked small but had very standard dining etiquette.

His posture was straight and his every move showed elegance and dignity.

Zhan Mochen saw it and secretly praised it in his heart.

Si Yejing is worthy of being the heir of the Si family of Country M. At a young age, he is calm and indifferent, not at all like a seven-year-old child.

Although Si Yejing grew up abroad, the big family's unspoken rules were almost engraved in his bones.

He finished his portion of the meal gracefully, put down his knife and fork, wiped the sauce from the corners of his lips, and waited quietly for Zhan Mochen to finish before speaking again.

"Uncle Zhan, I think you seemed to have something to tell me just now. Do you want to ask about the misunderstanding between Grandpa Gu and me that day?"

Zhan Mochen didn't expect Si Yejing to bring it up on his own initiative, so he hesitated: "Actually, Mr. Gu was also worried about you that day, so he blamed you. He also regretted it afterwards."

"I won't blame him. Grandpa Gu is my family member. He scolded me that day just because caring leads to chaos. It's not that he thinks I'm not a good boy."

After the long conversation with Gu Shiyuan that day, Si Yejing had completely let go of that little knot in his heart. When he talked about this matter with Zhan Mochen, his dark eyes did not dim at all, only a faint light. "Grandpa Gu has always been by my side. Over the years, he has taken great care of me, even to the point of not caring about his own family for my sake."

"His family?" Zhan Mochen felt a little strange when he heard this, "You mean Miss Gu?"

"Not just aunt."

Si Yejing turned his head and glanced at Gu Wan, his eyes full of meaning.

Zhan Mochen was stunned for a moment, thinking deeply.

Gu Wan next to her quickly understood what Si Yejing meant and stood up with a smile: "You guys talk first, I'll go to the bathroom."

"Okay." Si Yejing nodded.

Gu Wan was not here, so Zhan Mochen lost his scruples and asked curiously: "What do you mean, Mr. Gu has other family members? But as far as I know, Mr. Gu does not have a wife or other children. "

"That's just external information. In fact, Grandpa Gu had his own family. Even his current name was taken later."

"Change your name?" Zhan Mochen was stunned.

Si Yejing came to see him today. Is this what he really wanted to tell him?

Zhan Mochen took a deep breath and stared at Si Yejing closely: "Yehing, what else do you know, can you tell me?"

"I only know that Grandpa Gu once had a family before he came to the Si family. But later, due to some unavoidable reasons, he changed his face and hid his identity and became a member of our Si family, specifically responsible for protecting my safety. As for his past What he does and what his identity is, I don’t know.”

Si Yejing told him the personal experiences that Gu Shiyuan told him as briefly as possible, and stared at Zhan Mochen with a pair of dark eyes, observing his reaction calmly.

Their eyes met in the air for a moment, but Zhan Mochen didn't react at all, remaining silent as if he hadn't heard.

There was a moment of disappointment in Si Yejing's eyes. Could it be that Zhan Mochen really wasn't touched at all?
The next moment, he heard Zhan Mochen's deep voice: "Then do you know where he was from before he changed his appearance? Is he Chinese-M, or is he originally Chinese?"

He had been searching for so long, but could not find any information about Gu Shiyuan's life experience. This person was too well hidden.

Si Yejing breathed a sigh of relief.

It turns out he is still curious, which is good.

Si Yejing could hardly hold back and wanted to tell Zhan Mochen that Grandpa Gu might be his father...

However, when the words came to his lips, he held back.

So far, this matter is just his speculation. Before there is definite evidence that Gu Shiyuan is Zhan Mochen's biological father, he is not sure that Zhan Mochen can believe it.

If he made a mistake, it would probably bring trouble to Gu Shiyuan.

He didn't dare to show his trump card like this, which would make Gu Shiyuan very passive.

It's better to let Zhan Mochen investigate on his own. If he can find any definite evidence, that would be the best.

While his thoughts were racing, Si Yejing calmed down and shook his head calmly: "I don't know, I only know that Grandpa Gu had his face disfigured in a fire and later had plastic surgery. The surgery was done in an institution in country M. Yes, but he himself likes China very much, especially the city of Haicheng."

In the last sentence, Si Yejing obviously emphasized his tone.

Zhan Mochen was stunned and immediately understood Si Yejing's hint.

Si Yejing was telling him that it was not convenient for him to reveal too many of Gu Shiyuan's secrets to him, but Si Yejing clearly told him that Gu Shiyuan's past must be related to Haicheng.

Thinking of Gu Shiyuan's concern for him before and the hesitant expression when he looked at him several times, Zhan Mochen's heart beat violently.

He was sure almost instantly: Gu Shiyuan's past was not only related to the city of Haicheng, but also to him!
