Breaking up with a wife is not easy for an ex-husband

Chapter 123 The Cruel Truth (2)

Qin Shi didn't turn her head, her voice was cold and unfamiliar when she spoke, she asked Gu Xingnian, "Why did Grandpa adopt me back then?"

Half a year ago, when he first met the old man of the Gu family, Qin Shi was only ten years old.

Although at that time I didn't know what I was afraid of this old man, but gradually I felt it.

There is a kind of hostility in the old man of the Gu family.

Just like Gu Xingnian now, strangers should not enter.

But back then, Qin Shi's parents had just passed away, and all the relatives and friends in the family didn't know her overnight, wishing to hide as far away as possible.

Apart from Gu's family, she has no other place to go.

She only remembered that on the night before her parents' accident, her mother woke her up at two o'clock in the morning and said to her, "Ah Shi, no matter what your life will be like in the future, you must not give up hope and be strong." live on, you know?"

Qin Shi was very sleepy at the time, and he was so dazed that he didn't think about why his mother suddenly said such things to him.

It wasn't until the next day when she saw her parents lying there motionless in the hospital that she belatedly understood...

That was the last time she talked to her mother, it was the last words of her parents!
Qin Shi hadn't thought of these things for a long time, because every time he thought of them, he was accompanied by heart-piercing pain.

She was afraid of the pain, afraid that she would collapse.

But now, I have to think about it again...

"Tell me, why did grandpa adopt me? Did he really just want to find you a playmate?"

At that time, Qin Shi also asked this question, and the old man of the Gu family explained that the Gu family had only one child, Gu Xingnian, and was too lonely. It happened that something happened to her family and she had nowhere to go, so he adopted her to Gu Xingnian. Be a companion.

Now that I think about it, I was really naive.

The Gu family is so high and high, if it wasn't for a reason, how could they just happen to know that something happened in their family and adopt them?

Qin Shi sneered after thinking about it, and bit by bit he pulled away Gu Xingnian's hand that was holding his arm.

Gu Xingnian refused to let her go, so she exerted all her strength, and she would not give up until she pulled it away.

In the end, Gu Xingnian gave in, let go of her hand and asked her, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Qin Shi smiled, stared at her, and gritted his teeth.

Probably nothing would make her relationship with Gu Xingnian more ridiculous, right?

When I first arrived at the Gu family, I called him brother, because he was only five years older, so it was inappropriate to call him uncle.

Later, he became more and more mature after working, and his relationship with him became worse and worse. Qin Shi no longer liked to chase after him and call him 'brother', so when others asked him, he said that Gu Xingnian was his uncle.

Furthermore, the old man of the Gu family forced them to get married before. Although the wedding became a humiliation, at least that wedding existed.

They became a couple in name.

and then?
Qin Shi smiled and burst into tears, she said in a low voice: "I grew up in your Gu family for eight years, even though I didn't feel much warmth from your family, I'm still grateful that you adopted me, at least Let me have enough food and clothing, and no worries about food and clothing."

But ah...

Right and wrong, black and white, will be revealed one day.

Fate is fate, evil is evil.

"But Gu Xingnian, do you dare to tell me why your Gu family adopted me? Do you dare to tell me why grandpa forced you to marry me?"

She asked two questions in a row, and her expression clearly told Gu Xingnian... what did she know.

If you don't know the whole truth, at least you know half of it.

Gu Xingnian's expression sank and he didn't speak again.

Chen Ma, who was standing next to her, was worried at first, but now she could only sigh.

She once prayed to God, hoping that those dark truths of the past would never be known to Qin Shi, and that she and Gu Xingnian could go on happily ever after and grow old together.

But... how can paper hold fire?

She still knew it, and she still felt that she had torn off the last layer of veil.

The living room was deadly quiet, not even the sound of breathing.

The corners of Qin Shi's mouth curled up stubbornly. Although she couldn't control her tears, she didn't want to admit defeat, and she didn't want them to realize how sad she was now.

Yes, sad.Even more than sad, hopeless, hopeless.

She thought that the gap between herself and Gu Xingnian was just some small conflicts, or the flowers and plants outside.

But it turned out that there was a blood feud between him and him.

"Gu Xingnian, why don't you talk anymore? Is there anything you can't tell me? You told me. If people don't know it, unless they do nothing, why don't you tell me everything that happened eight years ago? ?”

She started to be aggressive, but she couldn't tell whether she was pushing herself or Gu Xingnian.

Chen Ma looked terrified and couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade her: "Miss Qin, I know you must be in a bad mood now, but all this really doesn't care about the young master, he was only 15 years old, he... ..."

"So what about you, Mama Chen?"

Qin Shi suddenly turned his head, interrupted Mama Chen, and asked her.

Mama Chen was taken aback for a moment, puzzled in her eyes.

At this time, Qin Shi's face suddenly showed a large swath of despair, deep and depressing, "Chen Ma, he was only 15 years old eight years ago, and none of this has anything to do with him, so what about you, Chen Ma? Didn't you know all this all the time? For eight years, you watched me grow up in the enemy's house, did you ever think about telling me the truth?"

"Miss Qin..."

Chen Ma was stunned by her question, and immediately her eyes turned red.

Over the years, she has always felt guilty, so she treats Qin Shi like her own daughter.

She hopes that this strong and kind girl can feel that there is still love in this world, and that she can live happily.

but……

"Don't question Chen Ma, she is just a servant of our family." Gu Xingnian finally spoke at this moment, speaking in a deep tone as if he was discussing business with others.

Qin Shi didn't speak, but turned his head back to look at her.

The eyes of the two met, one eye was full of emotions, and the other... couldn't see anything.

Gu Xingnian said: "I can tell you whatever you want to know, just follow me upstairs first."

"No need, just say it here if you have anything to say." Qin Shi refused thoroughly.

She wanted to go upstairs just now because she was afraid that she would break down emotionally and do something irrational, but since she had explained everything, she didn't want to go up again.

Because, I don't want to stay in this house for another second.

Want to leave, immediately!immediately!
