Chapter 206
She looked at Madam Lan nervously, hoping she could give her an answer.

An answer she had most hoped for all these years.

"Your father?" Madam Lan seemed a little surprised. She was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Gu Xi and asked, "Have you never met your biological father? Your mother has never mentioned it either?"

Gu Xi lowered her eyelids and said: "To tell you the truth, my mother passed away when I was very young, and I have never met my father. I only occasionally learned something about my mother's life from my father. Later, my father didn't like to talk about these things too much. Things, so I have no way of knowing."

"Is that so!" Mrs. Lan pondered for a moment, and said, "Actually, although your mother and I knew each other before, it was before giving birth to you. We were quite acquainted at that time, but I never heard that she had any favorite person."

She paused, glanced at Guxi, and smiled gently: "Actually, when I first found out about your existence, I was also taken aback. I didn't expect your mother to give birth so soon, and... ..."

Having said that, she stopped again, glanced at Gu Xi with soft eyebrows, smiled, then waved her hand and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's all sit down, we're all hungry, want to eat something Whatever you want."

She beckoned everyone to sit down, and the waiter handed out menus to everyone, Gu Xi sat down next to her, knowing what she meant by what she just said, with a slightly embarrassed expression on her face, but she was looking at the menu, but she was full of thoughts .

Who is her biological father, and why are both mother and father so secretive about it?
She thought that Mrs. Lan could give her the answer, but now it seems that all this is not as easy as he imagined. Seeing Mrs. Lan's expression is natural, as if she really doesn't know who her father is.

This answer made Gu Xi feel a little frustrated.

But the depression was only for a moment, and Gu Xi didn't let this emotion spread.

After so many years, she didn't have much hope for finding her biological father, but it was because of the appearance of Mrs. Lan that she couldn't help but have this idea.

A little hope, and disappointment is to be expected.

So Gu Xi quickly adjusted, looked at the menu and asked them to order and pay for themselves.

She turned her head to look at Gu Xiao who was sitting next to Mrs. Lan, and happened to meet her, Gu Xiao rolled her eyes and stared over.

But his eyes looked fierce, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Gu Xi couldn't help but glanced at Mrs. Lan beside her, and seeing that she didn't seem to notice, she said to her slowly: "Don't be polite to me, I'm your mother and I'm an old acquaintance, you can also call me auntie."

"Aunt Lan." Gu Xi shouted kindly.

Gu Xiao curled his lips, a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes.Hmph, on the day he knows the truth, I don't know if Auntie will be able to make this cry.

Do not!She won't know the truth, I won't allow her to know!

No one noticed her, even if they noticed by chance, no one would think too much about it. Gu Xi began to talk to Mrs. Lan about her mother. some things.

Gu Xi hasn't recalled those things for a long time, but now that Mrs. Lan recalls them, she can't help but recall the time when their mother and daughter were together, even though they were poor, they were happy.

"Hey, if I knew that this kind of thing would happen back then, I shouldn't have left." At the end, Madam Lan sighed softly, regretting: "Otherwise, I wouldn't even know who your father is, and let Yuehua be like this." Hard."

Madam Lan patted Gu Xi's hand, "Oh, it's really hard for you. It's not easy for you to be alone all these years."

Gu Xi quickly shook her head, "Aunt Lan, you are too worried. These years have been very good, and my adoptive parents have treated me very well."

Gu Xi didn't want to mention all the things before that.

What's more, Mrs. Lan is still Gu Xiao's mother now, and it's inconvenient to say more about their family's affairs.

And now that she has her own husband and soon will have her own children, she does feel very happy.

Speaking of Gu Xiao, oh, her surname is Lan now.

Gu Xi couldn't help but look at her. The way Gu Xiao shrank beside Madam Lan seemed extremely pitiful, and she didn't know what she didn't know about it?

This time, Gu Xi hesitated for a long time, and finally did not ask out the doubts in her heart. No matter what, this is a matter between the Lan family and the Gu family. As a married woman, she really has no position to ask more questions.

"Oh, by the way, I don't know where your mother's tomb is? I want to visit her when I have time." Madam Lan said suddenly.

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, then replied: "My mother's spirit plaque is now in the Qishan Cemetery outside Tongcheng. If Mrs. Lan wants to see it, I can take you there."

Madam Lan raised her eyebrows suspiciously, "Spirit card?"

Gu Xi smiled, and said reluctantly: "When my mother passed away, I was very young, and I didn't understand many things. The mother's body was cleaned up with the help of the aunts in the local community, and was later placed in the cemetery in Rongcheng. .”

She couldn't help sighing, "I didn't go back to visit a few years ago, but this year I heard that the tomb there was destroyed by mudslides many years ago. Although the cemetery was repaired later, the damage was serious at that time. I Mother's...has been lost."

She didn't expect such a thing to happen, but there was no way to do it. She could only re-set up a spirit card for her mother in Tongcheng, and often went to worship.

As soon as she explained it like this, Madam Lan knew that there were so many things she didn't know about it.

But now that things are like this, it is impossible to recover.

"I didn't expect Yuehua these years, hey..." She sighed, and patted the back of Gu Xi's hand lightly, "It's hard for you child, forget it, let's stop talking about these unhappy things."

The dishes that happened to be ordered came out one after another, and she immediately said: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables!"

Gu Xi didn't want to continue these boring topics, and instead focused on eating.

After Gu Xiao secretly glared at Gu Xi, she realized that Cheng Dong was actually sitting beside her. At this moment, her pretty face, which had been sternly frowning just now, suddenly turned red.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, anyway, she just wanted to get close to him, but once she got close, she was a little at a loss.

She unconsciously lowered her head and pulled the tablecloth shyly. She felt as if her heart was bursting with joy, and the beating heart seemed to be heard by everyone around her.

She was a little worried, what if Mr. Cheng heard it too?
Does he think she is too petty?
As soon as Gu Xiao thought about it, he told himself that she was no longer the Gu Xiao who didn't know anything and had no background. She is now the eldest lady of the Lan family, so she won't be as petty as Gu Xi!

Cheering himself up in his heart, Gu Xiao raised his head, pretended to look calmly at Cheng Dong, who looked like a crown jade, and said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, I really thank you for lending a helping hand just now, otherwise I would be miserable today." gone."

She picked up the juice in front of her, "I'll replace the wine with juice, thank you, Mr. Cheng."

Cheng Dong glanced at her lazily, narrowed his long and narrow phoenix eyes slightly, and suddenly laughed lightly, touched her with the wine glass, raised his head and poured a small half of the glass into it.

The ends of the eyes were slightly raised, as if it was just a casual glance, but Gu Xiao's heart was pounding.

She suppressed the joy rising in her heart, lowered her head and drank the juice in the glass in one gulp.

Cheng Dong didn't say a word, but she couldn't help but want to lean on him even tighter, and she always felt itchy in her heart.

Cheng Dong doesn't belong to Mu Jingchen's imposing type, but he exudes a strange charm all over his body, especially when his phoenix eyes are squinting at you, it seems that he wants to hook your soul like walking.

Gu Xiao doesn't like Mu Jingchen's type, to be precise, she also likes it, but the person Mu Jingchen likes happens to be the person she hates the most. Good impression.

But Cheng Dong was different, his lazy movements, wicked smiles, and eyes, every part of him was like a thorn, and without her noticing, he suddenly pierced into it. her heart.

He was like a strong poison, seducing her suddenly.

She was addicted to it, so she couldn't see the evil that Cheng Dong put in his eyes, and couldn't see the contempt that he never put her in his eyes.

She thought about ways to get close to him, but found that apart from his rescue just now, the only connection between them was cherishing.

This knowledge makes Gu Xiao secretly grit her teeth, why is it that she always gets to know the people around her first!

Even Mrs. Lan is like this!When she met Gu Xi, she didn't even look at her again!
The hands under the table clenched into fists unconsciously. She glanced at Mrs. Lan who was chatting and laughing with Gu Xi, and the smile on her face was also very gentle. The jealousy in her eyes almost turned into substance and drowned her.

"You and Gu Xi are sisters?" Cheng Dong said suddenly, his low voice seemed to be right next to her ear.

Gu Xiao's heart skipped a beat, she turned her head slowly, and saw Cheng Dong leaning very close to her, his pretty face almost touching hers.

She was startled, and subconsciously moved back.

Realizing that Cheng Dong took the initiative to lean so close to her, a sweet warmth flashed in Gu Xiao's heart, and she blinked a few times with a confused look on her face.

"I heard you call her sister just now." Cheng Dong explained understandingly.

"Ah, so that's how it is." Gu Xiao seemed to have just come back to his senses, his cheeks were still dizzy and slightly red, and said with a slight smile: "Yes, my sister and I grew up together, and she is ten years older than me. I'm old, so I've always taken care of me."

"Is that so..."

Cheng Dong pondered, turned around and sat down, and gently sipped the wine in his glass with graceful movements.
