she's a grumpy leprechaun

Chapter 204
The high-spirited man in the painting is completely different from the decadent him now.

Gu Yiyan stared deeply at the portrait. His father was extremely powerful when he was young, and he didn't seem like someone who would be bound by his children's affair.

I didn't expect him to be so infatuated in his bones...

What is the relationship between father and Ji Yuzheng?
Gu Yiyan stood up, walked towards the portrait step by step——

After taking off the two-meter-long oil painting, there was actually a portrait of a woman hidden on the back of the oil painting.

A peerless face, with a somewhat familiar taste between her brows, and a smile in the corner of her eyes, as if she had the joy of being a first-time mother.

"Could the woman in this painting be Ji Yuzheng's mother?" Gu Yiyan guessed.

But Ji Yuzheng did a dna test secretly, and she is indeed Ji Tingkun's daughter.

The only possibility is that Ji Xuefei's mother is not Ji Tingkun's original partner, she is just a stepmother?

Then all this can be reasonably explained.

Gu Yiyan stared at the familiar face in this painting, his eyes gradually deepened, and his heart tightened.

Thinking of the popular saying on the Internet recently, that lovers will eventually become brothers and sisters, Gu Yiyan almost lost his footing, but what he can be sure of at the moment is that Ji Yuzheng has no blood relationship with him.

But what kind of entanglement was there between her biological mother and her own father, this knowledge made him very uncomfortable.

Their father and son fell in love with a mother and daughter, and it was ridiculous to spread the word.

Although there are some discrepancies between the portrait and the photo, with Ji Yuzheng's appearance, he can almost imagine how graceful the woman in the painting must have been when she was young.

Ji Yuzheng's facial features belong to the kind that is unassuming but very recognizable, making it hard to forget at a glance.

He took the portrait and knocked on his father's door.

The light in Gu Lingyuan's room was still on, and he said two words in a vicissitudes of life and empty voice: "Come in."

Gu Yiyan pushed the door open and entered, Gu Lingyuan glanced at him calmly, then lowered his eyes lightly, looking at the thick book in his hand.

When he was quiet, he was a very scholarly man, reclusive and independent.

"Still awake so late?" Father Gu asked calmly.

Gu Yiyan walked over in two or three steps, threw the portrait in his hand on the bed, endured the uncontrollable emotions, and asked, "What is the relationship between you and the woman in the painting?"

"Yan'er, you are very smart. You have already guessed it, haven't you? Why bother to get to the bottom of it." Gu Lingyuan's tone was so calm that there was only one tone.

"Even if you like her, you have to hide it. You don't even dare to keep a picture of her. Her portrait can only be hidden behind the cold wall. So your father has always been such a cowardly person?"

Gu's father stopped turning the pages of the book, and when he mentioned the past, his eyes dimmed.

Although he didn't want to admit his cowardice, no one dared to pry into these secrets, and he even planned to bring them to the cemetery after death.

At least, this way he can numb himself, he is a man who is loyal and affectionate, not a scumbag!
The last thing he wants is to let his son know about this past...

Because it is unbearable, it is also very shameless.

"I am a married man, and I like her, but I can't give her any title. How can a woman's youth be wasted like a beast?" Gu Lingyuan picked up the portrait, stroking the woman's face on the oil painting with his fingers, as if caught in a In the distant memories, "I have a wife and children, but I fell in love with another woman. It is an unforgivable crime!"

"Then why did she marry another man, gave birth to a daughter, and disappeared in the end?" Gu Yiyan stared at him with scarlet eyes.

Father Gu only had the woman in the painting in his eyes, and he couldn't tolerate anything else: "She didn't do it voluntarily, because her parents felt that she was entangled with a married man, humiliating the family style, and very shameful, so they forced her to marry someone who they didn't like. love man."

"What do you mean?"

Gu Yiyan was extremely shocked. With his father's ability at the time, this kind of thing could have been completely avoided.

"The girl you like is the crystallization of her and the man she doesn't love, and the person she loves to the death has always been me..."

When Gu Lingyuan talked about this past incident lightly, it seemed that the memory had been buried for a long time. The floodgate was opened and flooded in like a flood.

Gu Yiyan's mind was in a mess, if Ji Yuzheng found out the truth, how could she accept it?
The family affection she longed for since she was a child treated her with a mask of prejudice and hatred.

Her mother, because she never longed for her arrival, died of depression.

She is like an angel abandoned by the heavens, living on her own, no matter how hard she tries, she will arouse the disgust of everyone and get nothing good.

"Why is it her..." Gu Yiyan was stunned, his face was pale and feeble, and there was a strong distress in his eyes.

He should have hated her, it was her mother who ruined two families.

But the corner of his mouth slowly turned into a smile, and he roared self-deprecatingly: "No matter what she does, she will be rejected by others. It is because of her own existence that it is a mistake, right?"

Gu's father pursed his thin lips tightly, did not speak, and pinched the portrait with his fingers.

The hurt from relatives' indifference, and the gloomy past four years ago, have always been the wounds in Ji Yuzheng's heart that cannot heal.

She never thought that the mother who hated her to the bone was not her own, and her so-called father had always regarded her as a shame.

"Yes." Gu's father replied hoarsely: "Her mother suffered from depression after giving birth and committed suicide. Her father and stepmother raised her and deliberately let her approach you, probably just to get revenge on me! "

Gu Yiyan was so distressed that he felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, even slowly overflowing.

Since she was born, she was so miserable, so small, she began to survive in the cracks and lived carefully.

Breaking into the entertainment industry single-handedly, bringing a child alone, trying to win everyone's love, but attracting countless black people...

The insults from the whole network, competitors' scheming and tricks are not because of her fault, but because of the distorted feelings of the previous generation. How can we educate the next generation of kindness?
"I thought that based on your ingenuity, you could already see that this is a trap. I didn't expect you to be a fan of the authorities... Didn't your mother tell you the truth?" Gu Lingyuan asked with a low smile.

Gu Yiyan clenched his hands into fists, "This woman has always been a thorn in her heart. How could she bring it up? She just wants to uproot it and let her daughter feel that ten times the pain she has endured is not enough!"

"Since it's a thorn, it's good to pull it out, otherwise the wound will fester and it will never heal."

Father Gu spoke calmly, as if discussing how the weather is going to be today, it's irrelevant.
