Chapter 160

Calling Xicheng, the old man quietly listened to the voice on the phone. For a long time, no one answered. He didn't hang up until the cold notification sounded.An ominous premonition gradually came to mind, and the old man gradually became uneasy.

Standing up, looking out the window, the familiar scenery and the familiar garden made him unfamiliar for a moment.

It was already afternoon, and the sun was gradually sinking, losing its original dazzling light, and it looked so warm and intoxicating at this moment.The sycamore trees not far away have begun to lose their leaves, and the trees are golden and prosperous.Wherever the breeze passes, fallen leaves are everywhere.

The old man sighed, sat down on the chair again, and opened the photo in the drawer that he had never dared to touch. In the photo, he and his wife were standing together, Xiao Han was holding the hands of the two of them, smiling Sunshine, like a little angel.

This is my own happiness.Once upon a time, the happiness that can never be found again.


When it was time for dinner, the old man sat at the dining table with a majestic expression and a calm voice, "Call Miss Lin to come over for dinner." But his heart trembled slightly, Lin Youran, Miss Lin, Youran, or Xiao Han, these four Between the two titles, he didn't know what to use.

When Qin's mother heard this, she walked to Lin Youran's room.Knocked on the door, "The old man asked you to eat." Not long after the words fell, Lin Youran's delicately made-up face appeared in front of her, her long curly hair draped over her shoulders, and her crystal nails shone under the light of Mother Qin eyes, wearing a short skirt with suspenders, the huge round chest is ready to be seen, and the voice is sweet and greasy, "En. I see."

Frowning, Qin Ma took a disdainful look at her, then turned around and walked towards the living room. When passing by the room where Mo Xuan and Xi Cheng lived, she couldn't help but take a few extra glances.She secretly thought: Mo Xuan is better, she has no temper and airs, always easy-going, and her clothes are simple and generous.It's not like this Lin Youran, who reveals everything, and those who don't know think she is a butcher.

Lin Youran didn't seem to care, and followed behind Qin's mother, walking in thin high-heeled shoes, making noises and making people panic.

At the entrance of the living room, Mother Qin stood still, looking at Lin Youran for a moment, "The young master is not at home, you don't wear high heels, no one will notice." The cold and indifferent voice, the disgust is self-evident.

Since this is in Gu's residence, Lin Youran just nodded, and said with a smile: "What Qin Mama said is true, I will change it later."

Seeing her appearance, Qin's mother said coldly: "Qin's mother is not called by outsiders, you should call me Aunt Qin." Then she turned and walked away, Lin Youran looked at her back, His eyes suddenly turned hard, with deep hatred.When he turned his head and walked towards the living room, a sweet smile appeared on his face again.


Sit down opposite the old man. "Eat quickly. If you don't eat, the food will be cold." The old man's voice sounded deep.

"En." She nodded, smiling all over her face, "Thank you, Uncle Gu."

Gu Yuhang just buried his head in his meal and didn't respond. After a while, the steady voice sounded again in the living room, "Your adoptive parents have passed away, right?"

Lowering her head and lowering her eyes, Lin Youran lowered her voice, and said quietly, "Well, there was a car accident four years ago." There was already sadness in her tone, and when she raised her head again, tears welling up in her eyes filled her eyes, and she made a gesture. The deputy tried to hold back the grievance of not letting the tears fall.

Looking at her appearance, the old man couldn't bear it for a moment, she might be Xiao Han, and this kind of knowledge made him not even have the heart to say too much. "Then what do you live on after they pass away?"

Lin Youran was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head again, "I earn by working and studying, plus my parents' savings."

Work-study program?When Xicheng was with him back then, according to my own investigation, she had never worked any jobs, and lived on the money Xicheng gave her, which was relatively well off.

"Really?" The old man said softly, but it seemed to be talking to himself. "Generally, where do you work?" It seemed to be a random question without consideration, and the tone was like chatting while eating and chatting.

"In some small restaurants." She said softly, but she felt uneasy in her heart, for fear that the old man would continue to ask questions.After all, I have never worked part-time, so I just want him to have a better impression of me.

Gu Yuhang glanced at her, and sighed lowly, "Let's eat." The tone was light, and no emotion could be heard.Only then did Lin Youran feel at ease.He also lowered his head and buried himself in eating, but he was thinking about it in his heart. The old man asked what he was doing.

However, there is still a hint of joy in the end. After all, if the old man doesn't suspect himself, it will be much easier to get the property of the Gu family and marry Gu Xicheng.After all, Gu Xicheng has always respected the old man.

Back then, after a few words from the old man, he went to propose to Mo Xuan, and then held the wedding quickly, which quickly made him lose his mind.


After compensating for a meal, the old man put down the tableware in his hand, looked at Lin Youran's appearance, his fingers were slender, and the heavy smoky makeup made her more charming.What comes to mind is always that small face with a gorgeous smile, which is the Xiaohan in my heart.

"Come out with me tomorrow." His deep voice suddenly sounded.

Lin Youran was startled, then raised her head, smiling sweetly, and her voice was full of joy, "Okay." It was a crisp answer.Then he put down the tableware in his hand.

"Are you tired today too? Take a shower and rest earlier." It was a gentle voice, mixed with a trace of deep fatigue.Qin's mother outside the living room heard such a conversation and tone, and stood outside a little stunned, without stepping in.The old man's words and deeds today are indeed very different from his usual behavior. The fact that his attitude towards Lin Youran has taken a 180-degree turn is enough to make her unbelievable.

Lin Youran nodded with a smile, with a cute look, "Yes. Thank you, Uncle Gu."

The old man shook his hand, "Go and rest." While talking, he stood up and walked to his study.Behind her, Lin Youran looked at her back, showing a complacent smile that was determined to win.

It seems that coming back is far better than staying in France.


Provence.

In the hospital, Gu Xicheng lay quietly on the hospital bed, his eyes were quietly closed, his long eyelashes drooped quietly, his face was pale, and his lips had no trace of blood.

Like a sleeping prince in a fairy tale.
