After finishing Meng Yue's business, Gu Mo immediately went to the repair shop to retrieve the bracelet. Some time ago, because he was too busy, he gave the fragments he picked up to Fan Jing and asked her to help take them to the owner of the repair shop.
Parked the car on the roadside and hurried to the door of the store.
As soon as you enter the store, you can see the grandpa boss. He is standing behind the counter with a kind smile on his face and a slight stoop in his back. He is still wearing the same linen shirt he saw before.
As soon as the old man saw Gu Mo, he called out: "Little girl, here you are. I have been repairing this jade bracelet for several days. I don't know whether you are satisfied with it or not. Take a look."
He bent down and took out an old wooden box from under the counter. With wrinkled hands, he carefully opened the wooden box and pushed it towards Gu Mo.
Gu Mo was immediately surprised when he saw it. The boss had repaired the bracelet exactly the same as before it was broken. How could there be such superb craftsmanship in this world?
"Boss, you are too awesome, aren't you!?"
The old man shook his head, "This jade bracelet is not as valuable as before. When I was repairing it, I found that there were still some missing pieces that I couldn't find, so I took other materials to make up for them. But even if they are good materials, they are not their own. .”
"Oh, it's still a discount."
The old man sighed regretfully, and Gu Mo quickly comforted him, "It's okay. I won't sell this bracelet so I'll wear it myself. As long as it stays the same as before, it'll be fine."
"Grandpa, you are already very powerful! Looking at the entire city A, no one dares to call you number one even though you are number two!"
The old man smiled happily and said, "Little girl, you are quite sweet. I'll give you a discount on the repair fee."
Gu Mo shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, you rely on your craftsmanship to earn a living, how can I give you a discount?"
The old man smiled even more happily, closed the wooden box and handed it to Gu Mo, "Jingjing's friends are all good girls."
This made Gu Mo feel a little embarrassed. After paying the bill, he said hello and left.
The old man stood behind the counter, watching the retreating figures outside the door, muttering to himself.
Is this girl from the Bai family?
When he was repairing the bracelet, he discovered that there was a word "Jin" on the inside of the bracelet. He had seen this bracelet decades ago and it seemed that it was made from a piece of material imported from abroad. At that time, he hired the most powerful carver to polish the piece of material, and finally it was Miss Bai Jin bought it.
Does this girl have anything to do with Miss Bai Jin? But didn't the Bai family announce to the outside world that Miss Bai Jin had...
Hey, I couldn’t figure it out so I stopped thinking about it and cleared up the clutter on the counter.
But it's not unusual for Jingjing to know people from the Bai family.
Gu Mo left the repair shop and walked towards his car. As soon as he opened the door, the phone in his bag rang before he could sit down.
Gao Cheng?
I was a little surprised when I looked at the note on the phone screen. Why was he calling me?
I called a second time when I didn't answer the first time. It wasn't until the third time that I couldn't bear it anymore and finally pressed the answer button.
"Hello, madam..."
"Miss Gu! I'm Gao Cheng. It's like this. The servants in the villa have discovered that the flowers in your yard are dying these days, so they want you to come back and see what they should do?"
Without thinking, Gu Mo said, "It's not a valuable thing, just take it out."
"ah?"
The person on the phone laughed dryly, "Haha, and the dragon fish you bought in the living room haven't eaten much in the past few days. I think they are sick. Why don't you come back and see what happens to the fish... "
"If it can be cured, treat it. If it can't be cured, forget it. I think the Fang family shouldn't be short of these fish, right?"
After hitting the wall twice in a row, Gao Cheng felt helpless and sighed on the phone, "Hey, Miss Gu, I won't beat around the bush with you. Your mother is in the villa now."
Gu Mo, who was about to hang up the phone, suddenly turned ugly when he heard this, "Did Fang Zhixu call him?"
Gao Cheng avoided talking about this sentence, which seemed to be an acquiescence, "Miss Gu, I suggest you come to the villa first."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Mo stepped on the accelerator and turned around at the intersection ahead. The roar of the supercar echoed through the sky, attracting the attention of pedestrians.
The silver supercar sped away like a bolt of lightning amid a group of envious eyes.
In the Fang family villa, the sound of birds singing melodiously and melodiously spread into the villa.
"I didn't expect the environment here to be so good!" Meng Yue sat on the sofa and looked around, seeming to like it very much.
Thinking that my daughter had been living in such a luxurious place before, I was relieved. Fortunately, I wasn't too harsh on her.
She was not surprised at all that her son-in-law could live in such a big mansion. When she was in the hospital before, she found that both the doctors and nurses were very polite to her son-in-law. She guessed at that time that Fang Zhixu must not look the same. So simple.
It turns out that this is indeed the case.
"Mother, this is the tea I made for you." Fang Zhixu took a teacup and put it in front of Meng Yue.
Meng Yue did not pick her up immediately but corrected her, "Axu, you should call me auntie."
Fang Zhixu's face was a little stiff, and he took a piece of pastry next to him and put it on the table. "Auntie said, I just haven't changed my words for a while, and I'm not used to it."
"Tell me, what's the reason for calling me here this time?"
"Then I won't beat around the bush, Auntie, I want you to help me. I still have feelings for Momo."
Meng Yue took the cup on the coffee table and put it in front of her mouth, blowing on the hot air, "Axu, feelings are a matter between two people. Although I am Momo's mother, it does not mean that I can interfere."
"Momo clearly told me that the Fang family was not good to him, and you, Fang Zhixu, were not good to him either."
Meng Yue's heart felt a little stinging. If she hadn't woken up early in the hospital last time and heard the conversation between her daughter and her friends, she might never have known that her daughter had been wronged.
His eyes suddenly became firm, "Momo has been with you since she graduated from college. She gave up her career and her future, but what did she get? The insults from your Fang family again and again!"
"Axu, if you were Momo, would you choose to stay in the Fang family?"
This time it was Fang Zhixu's turn to be silent. The fingers he placed on his thighs unconsciously exerted force, as if they were suppressing something.
"Auntie, I want to make it up to Momo."
Meng Yue put the tea she had tasted back on the table and shook her head slightly, "If you really want to make up for Momo, then don't appear in front of her again."
"Because every time you show up, you will remind her of the insults she has received."
"I will take care of the daughter I gave birth to. I don't need you to pretend to give me a slap and a candy! Before you came to me, I was too lazy to tell you this. I wanted to show some mercy to each other, but now that you have come to me Then don’t blame me for being rude.”
Meng Yue coughed slightly because of his excitement. Fang Zhixu was left speechless and silently waved to the servant to bring some warm tea to Meng Yue.
Meng Yue's health had not recovered yet, so she took another half-hour drive to the Fang family villa. After experiencing a burst of emotion, she could not stop coughing for a while, and the sound of coughing reached the ears of people outside the door.
"Fang Zhixu, why don't you come to me? What did you do to my mother?!!"
Gu Mo pushed open the door angrily, and the wooden door hit the wall with a loud bang.
Scanning the living room, she saw the old man bending over and coughing, anger crawling all over his face. She rushed over and said, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Meng Yue took another sip of warm water and shook her head, "It's okay, I just had a cough suddenly."
Gu Mo sat down and let her rub his back, raised his head and glared at Fang Zhixu, "What on earth do you want to do by bringing my mother here behind my back?"
Meng Yue gently grabbed her wrist, "It's okay, Ah Xu just wanted to ask about my health and gave me such a delicious tea."
Hearing what Meng Yue said, Gu Mo's expression softened a little.
Fang Zhixu's eyes have been following Gu Mo since she entered the door.
Angry, concerned, angry...
Every move affects his mind. It turns out that he will also change due to her emotional changes, but why has he never noticed it before?
"Momo, I just asked you to come here because..."
His tone was not as cold as before, with a hint of gentleness that was imperceptible. However, the next words were stuck in his throat and he never said them out.
"What do you want to do?"
Gu Mo asked impatiently.
"You had a lot of stuff at Fang's house, get rid of it."
After saying that, he regretted it. He could say a hundred things to save it, but why did he say this one?
"I……"
Just when he was about to explain, Gu Mo said coldly, "Okay, I'll collect it right away."
She stood up decisively, told Meng Yue to sit on the sofa and stop walking around, and then walked straight to her room.
Meng Yue's coughing had stopped. She looked at Fang Zhixu across from her meaningfully, "Axu, there are some things you can't say, so don't say them anymore. Saying them may become a burden to the two of them."
Fang Zhixu opened his mouth and hesitated, then stared at the ground in frustration. He didn't know why he called Meng Yue and Gu Mo to Fang's house today. He only knew that he didn't miss her every day after divorcing Gu Mo. I often couldn't sleep at night and would go downstairs to sit in her room for the whole night.
He thought he might be sick, but he didn't know what medicine he should take.
He was obviously just a dispensable person before, but why did it make him feel so uncomfortable after leaving?
He stood up involuntarily, walked to Gu Mo's door and carefully hid it aside, fearing that Gu Mo would not be happy to see him.
Gu Mo was packing his things in the room, and he just watched from the outside, his agitated heart calming down a lot in an instant.
At this moment, he seemed to understand that his illness might only be cured by the person in front of him.
He stared at Gu Mo for as long as he was cleaning up. Finally, he saw Gu Mo coming out of the room holding a small bag and facing Fang Zhixu's face.
He slowly took out a black card from his pocket and handed it to Gu Mo, "Take this card and just tell me if you need anything."
Gu Mo sneered, "Fang Zhixu, what tricks are you playing?"
