"Blue Water Bay" single-family villa No. 12——
Show the place where the housekeeper took Gu Xiwan.
Butler Cheng stopped the car next to the stone lion outside the villa gate, opened the door and said respectfully,
"Young lady, the mistress who lives in this villa doesn't like to hear noise, so I won't drive the car in. You also get out of the car and walk in with me."
Gu Xiwan followed the butler and got out of the car.
Apparently, the doorman was familiar with Butler Cheng. When he saw Butler Cheng, the doorman pressed the door button and opened the door, and said respectfully,
"Mr. Cheng, are you here to see the old lady again?"
"Um."
Butler Cheng said calmly,
"How is she doing?"
The guard nodded, then shook his head.
"Okay, how can she get better? Poor old lady, I'm afraid she will be like this until she breathes her last breath."
The butler's eyes looked sad.
Gu Xiwan followed the butler into the villa door.
Although this villa is larger than the Bu Shen Zun Ju Garden, it is also spacious and luxurious. The yard covers an area of thousands of square meters, has a fountain, a swimming pool, and three luxury cars of different brands parked in the carport.
"She is the one I want you to meet."
Butler Cheng's voice came from beside Gu Xiwan.
Gu Xiwan looked in the direction pointed by the housekeeper, and saw an old lady sitting under the hibiscus tree on the west side of the yard. She was holding a rag doll in her arms, and a servant was standing beside her brushing her hands. cell phone.
Gu Xiwan said in confusion,
"Who is this person?"
As if afraid of disturbing that person, Butler Cheng said softly,
"Miss Sheng's mother."
Gu Xiwan narrowed her eyes and looked at the old lady more carefully.
Gu Xiwan has often heard people say that Sheng Xinyi's mother has become "no longer the same" due to the incident caused by Chu Lingjue, but no one has ever talked about how Sheng Xinyi's mother has become "no longer the same". "Once upon a time"...
"Let's go."
Gu Xiwan and Butler Cheng walked forward together.
Seeing Butler Cheng, the maid hurriedly put away her mobile phone and bowed to Butler Cheng,
"Mr. Cheng, why didn't you inform us in advance that you were coming today so that we could go and greet you?"
"Today is different from the past. I decided to come on the spur of the moment."
Butler Cheng said calmly.
"Oh, that's it." The maid said as she walked up to the old lady, waved her hands in front of her eyes, and raised her voice.
"Old madam, do you see who is visiting you again? It's Butler Cheng! Butler Cheng is your best friend. He comes to see you at least five times a week. Do you still remember him?"
The old lady was unmoved, still looking straight ahead with dull and sad eyes, her eyes filled with tears.
Seeing the old lady's appearance, Gu Xiwan was so sad that she almost shed tears.
It's not that Gu Xiwan has a glassy heart.
However, this old lady reminded Gu Xiwan of Gu Xiwan's own mother. During the period when Gu Xiwan's mother was seriously ill, she seemed to be in a daze and had no reaction to external things.
"Old madam, wake up! It's Butler Cheng, Butler Cheng!"
Seeing that the old lady did not respond, the maid began to shake the old lady's body.
The housekeeper hurriedly stopped the maid,
"Don't disturb her, let her quietly immerse herself in her own world."
The maid sighed,
"Oh, there's nothing I can do about it. The old lady only says one or two words every now and then, as if reflecting on the past, and then it's like this again. Hasn't it always been like this for so many years?
Poor man! "
Butler Cheng didn't speak anymore.
At this time, Gu Xiwan, who was standing next to Butler Cheng, clearly felt that Butler Cheng's body was shaking. She looked at Butler Cheng in confusion and saw tears in Butler Cheng's eyes. He looked at the old lady with pitiful, sad and sad eyes. And extremely gentle.
This was the first time Gu Xiwan saw the housekeeper showing such a look.
Gu Xiwan speculated that Butler Cheng's feelings for the old lady were more than just friendship!
"Hanhan! My Hanhan!"
The old lady suddenly screamed nervously,
"Hanhan, where have you been? Why can't mom find you? Hanhan!
Hanhan! "
"Old lady, don't be nervous, your Hanhan is here!" The servant hurriedly picked up the rag doll on the ground and put it into the old lady's arms.
The old lady held the doll tightly in her arms, tears streaming down her face.
"Hanhan, you're back. Mom thought you were lost. My precious son, just come back. Just come back..."
As he chanted, his voice gradually became fainter, and his eyes gradually went out like a lamp, becoming dim and dull.
Looking at the old lady, Gu Xiwan felt mixed feelings in her heart.
The servant said,
"Don't be surprised. The old lady is like this every day. The old lady was originally a cheerful woman. More than ten years ago, the old lady's son was killed in front of her eyes. The old lady was also injured in that accident. , can no longer stand up;
But the old lady’s biggest injury was not on her body, but in her heart. Since then, she has become like this, always holding a rag doll as her son, living every day..."
The servant could not help but shed tears.
Gu Xiwan's nose felt sore and she couldn't help but shed tears.
In the past, she only knew through hearsay that Sheng Xinyi's mother had become "never the same" because of Chu Lingjue, but she never knew that Sheng Xinyi's mother had become so miserable.
What's more, Sheng Xinyi's brother lost his life in that accident.
And Sheng Xinyi also suffered from neurasthenia...
If Gu Xiwan had only heard others say that Chu Lingjue felt guilty for Sheng Xinyi, now, seeing Sheng Xinyi's mother with her own eyes, she felt firsthand Chu Lingjue's heart-piercing guilt for this family.
At this time, a blue Porsche drove into the yard and parked next to another hibiscus tree not far away.
Gu Xiwan couldn't help but look over.
At this time, the car door opened, and the person who came out of the car was Sheng Xinyi.
However, although Gu Xiwan was not far from Sheng Xinyi, they were separated by two hibiscus trees. Although Gu Xiwan saw Sheng Xinyi, Sheng Xinyi did not notice Gu Xiwan.
Just as Gu Xiwan was wondering whether to take the initiative to talk to Sheng Xinyi, another black car quickly drove into the yard and stopped behind Sheng Xinyi's car.
"boom!"
The car door was kicked open.
Following this violent door kick, a deep roar rushed out of the car door like thunder,
"Didn't I ask you to remarry Ji Shaoting? I've been waiting for you at the Civil Affairs Bureau for more than two hours. Why did you come home? Do you think you can hide?"
Accompanied by this roar, an old man with a ferocious face got out of the car angrily. He walked to Sheng Xinyi in a few steps and grabbed Sheng Xinyi's right arm hard.
"Ji Shaoting is still waiting for you at the Civil Affairs Bureau. Why don't you go back with me?!"
Gu Xiwan's first reaction was that this old man must be Sheng Xinyi's father, Sheng Tianqing.
Gu Xiwan's second reaction was, didn't Ji Shaoting take the initiative to file for divorce from Sheng Xinyi? Why is Ji Shaoting remarrying Sheng Xinyi now?
