Generally speaking, elderly people are particularly taboo about death. Gu Beixian did not expect Hua Tianshou to be so enlightened.
After he stopped coughing, Gu Beixian explained the strategy he had planned to him in detail.
Hua Tianshou twirled his beard and nodded while listening.
Gu Beixian finished speaking.
Hua Tianshou stretched out a finger and looked at him eagerly, "I have a small request, can you tell me?"
"You say."
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Can I pretend to be dead again after the New Year? I want to have a full New Year."
Gu Beixian was so cute by him, "Of course."
"Then we will implement the plan after the new year, and I will contact you then."
"Okay, thank you grandpa."
Hua Tianshou smiled kindly, "My life was saved by Hua'er. If she hadn't donated bone marrow and blood to me, I would have died a long time ago. Let alone pretending to be dead, even if I were to die for real, I would have no choice but to do so."
"Don't tell Su Hua yet, I'm afraid she will stop you."
"rest assured."
After playing another game of chess with Hua Tianshou, Gu Beixian got up and left.
As he was about to reach the door, a clear child's voice suddenly came from behind him, "Uncle Gu!"
Gu Beixian stopped and looked back.
Little Gu Yin ran down the stairs.
The nanny chased after her.
Running up to Gu Beixian, little Gu Yin looked up at him, "Uncle Gu, will you take me to see my father again in the future?"
Gu Beixian felt bad.
He was always eloquent, but he didn't know how to answer.
She said she would take him to see his father, but she was just using him as bait to trap Gu Lin.
Gu Beixian leaned over and touched little Gu Yin's head, "Have a good time with your great-grandpa. Don't miss your father."
Little Gu Yin had tears welling up in her eyes, "But I miss my dad so much, so much, even in my dreams. I heard others say that my mom is dead. I don't have a mom anymore, and I can't live without a dad anymore."
It’s hard to imagine these words coming from a three-year-old child.
The complicated experience prompted him to mature prematurely.
Gu Beixian took a deep breath, said nothing, turned around, and strode out.
I feel sorry for little Gu Yin.
But isn't Qin Ye pitiful?
On the second day after she was born, someone from the Lin family stole her and threw her into the mountains.
If Qin Mogeng hadn't gone up the mountain to find him and adopted him, Qin Ye would have become a lonely soul in the wild.
And he has been kidnapped one after another since he was young, was involved in a car accident, and almost died. He was in a wheelchair for two years and will be troubled by bipolar disorder throughout his life.
Gu Jinyao was also almost killed by the fire.
With so many lives on the line, the plan cannot be ruined just because of a moment of weakness.
By the time he got into the car, Gu Beixian's heart was already as hard as a rock.
Four days later.
New Year's Eve is here.
Gu Beixian took Su Hua and Xiao Yifeng to his old house to spend the New Year with his grandparents.
The old house is decorated with lights and colorful decorations everywhere, and red lanterns are hung high, making it lively and full of festive atmosphere.
As we get older, the flavor of the year becomes weaker.
Only when he returned to his old home did Gu Beixian feel like celebrating the New Year.
He held Xiao Yifeng in one hand and walked in side by side with Su Hua.
Feeling the little soft body in his arms, Gu Beixian secretly vowed to arrest all Lin family members and not let Xiao Yifeng, Gu Xianyun, Gu Xiao and others follow the old path of their generation. .
Before reaching the building, I saw my gray-haired grandparents and a group of people waiting in front of the door.
Xiao Yifeng shouted in a sweet voice: "Grandpa, grandma, happy New Year!"
Grandma suddenly beamed, threw away the crutch in her hand, and ran to hug Xiao Yifeng.
Gu Aoting hurriedly stepped forward to help her, "My old mother, please take it easy. The older you get, the more out-of-touch your personality becomes. It's not the first time you meet Xiao Yifeng, why are you so excited like a three-year-old child?"
Grandma rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you call me too old again, I'll hit you on the head."
Gu Aoting remained silent.
Grandma bent down and picked up Xiao Yifeng.
After all, he is old and it is quite difficult to hold him.
Gu Beixian hurriedly held Xiao Yifeng's legs and helped her.
Grandma was so happy that she couldn't stop kissing Xiao Yifeng's face, hair, and ears. While kissing her, she praised: "My little great-grandson, the longer he grows, the cuter and more handsome he is. He is better than you." Dad was handsome when he was a child. You are my baby Tiancai, and my great-grandma likes you so much!"
Xiao Yifeng stretched out his little hand and touched her face, "I also like my great-grandmother. My great-grandmother is getting younger and younger, even younger than my grandfather."
"Hahaha!"
Grandma was so happy that she smiled broadly.
Gu Aoting stood behind and glanced directly at Xiao Yifeng, feeling that the child's pain was in vain.
Qin Shu added in a low voice, "Children love to tell the truth."
As if he had been slapped, Gu Aoting picked up his phone and typed on the screen: Bad Shu, you clearly said last night that I was full of energy, even more energetic than when I was young, and that I was becoming more and more like Pan Lu and Deng Xiaoxian. Nothing but leisure.
Qin Shu received the message and looked down at her phone.
Thinking of what happened last night, Qin Shu's ears were burning. She gave Gu Aoting a hard look, turned around and walked into the house.
Gu Aoting hurriedly caught up.
Others also entered the house one after another.
The banquet will begin soon.
The New Year's Eve dinner is especially sumptuous.
The large revolving round table is filled with dazzling displays, and the aroma is overflowing, making people move their index fingers.
Grandma insisted on holding Xiao Yifeng and feeding him herself.
Gu Aoting was appointed by grandma to sit next to her and help greet her.
Grandpa, who was supposed to be the head of the family, was squeezed next to Gu Beixian and Qin Ye.
Grandpa didn't mind at all and happily communicated with Gu Beixian about the company. From time to time, he also asked Qin Ye about some antique knowledge.
Grandma finished feeding Xiao Yifeng and then focused her attention on Qin Ye.
Look left, look right.
Grandma felt something was wrong.
There is one less person at this year’s New Year’s Eve dinner.
Grandma looked at Qin Ye, "Where is Ningning?"
Qin Ye said: "Lu Ning and her mother are both only children. They have only had one child for several generations. Let her accompany her grandparents to the New Year's Eve dinner this year."
Grandma nodded, "Indeed, you can't be forced to come to our house to celebrate the New Year just because you are a man. The men of our old Gu family must strictly abide by the "Husband's Ethics" written by me. The first article of "Husband's Ethics" is to respect your wife. , and held his wife up high, but she was the only one who followed her lead."
Qin Ye smiled lightly, but felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Lu Ning didn't come this year because she couldn't use chopsticks with her right hand and could only use her left hand to pick up food.
I'm afraid that grandma will be worried when she sees it, and I'm even more afraid that grandma will feel guilty if she knows the inside story.
The phone suddenly vibrated.
Qin Ye took out his mobile phone and glanced at it.
It was a blessing message from Lu Ning.
Qin Ye stood up and smiled at his grandma, "Lu Ning sent me a message. I'll call her back."
Grandma hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Go quickly and be nice to Ning Ning. It is very valuable for a girl to follow you when you are weak. Whenever something happens to our family, she will come over without saying a word, stay up all night and work hard to save her life." . Quiet, low-key, restrained, neither complaining nor taking credit. Such a good girl must find a way to marry her home and cherish her."
"Okay grandma."
Qin Ye walked to the courtyard with his cell phone.
The weather was cold, and a few stars were faintly visible in the dark blue sky.
Qin Ye's heart was warm.
He came under a hibiscus tree and dialed Lu Ning's number.
Qin Ye asked: "Have you finished eating with grandpa and grandma?"
Lu Ning replied: "It's done."
"Grandma just mentioned you and asked me to find a way to marry you home. She likes you very much."
Lu Ning said softly: "Thank her."
Qin Ye looked back and saw no one behind him, so he softened his voice and said, "When will you come back? I'll pick you up. I'm used to having you by my side. If I don't see you for a day, I'll panic and feel like I've lost my soul. I just ate and didn't want to say anything. It doesn’t taste good either.”
Lu Ning smiled silently, but his heart felt like a needle pricked him, "My father took people to Southeast Asia to find Mr. Lin."
Qin Ye paused, "When did it happen?"
"It's been two or three months."
Qin Ye said: "No wonder."
No wonder it's been so quiet lately.
Lu Ning lowered his voice, "My dad hasn't come back yet, and he can't be contacted."
Qin Ye was silent.
If we don’t come back to a day like New Year’s Eve when the whole country gets together, Lu Wei will be in bad luck.
Although he hated Lu Wei, Qin Yezi felt very uncomfortable when he suddenly heard such news.
No matter what, that was Lu Ning's father.
Qin Ye comforted her, "Don't worry, I will send people to look for him in Southeast Asia. He is so skilled and has been in the world for many years, so nothing will happen to him."
"Okay, thank you."
Her sudden unfamiliarity made Qin Ye a little uncomfortable.
I couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Ye sent a message to Gu Beixian.
Soon, Gu Beixian came out.
Qin Ye said: "Lu Wei is missing. I will look for some old connections here and go to Southeast Asia to look for him. You also send a group of people to look for him. The area in Southeast Asia is too big and there are fewer people going there. It will not be easy. Found. It’s been a long time, and I’m afraid he’s been killed.”
A trace of solemnity flashed across Gu Beixian's handsome face.
He picked up his cell phone and called his assistant to arrange things.
