Chapter 185: Transatlantic Telephone
"Director Yu, my father, although it is inconvenient to disclose the facts of the case, after all, I am a family member, so I must know something, right? Otherwise, how can I explain to Xiao Xue!" Gu Yuanshan pretended to be sad.
"Yes, I have been comrades-in-arms and brothers with Lao Xiao all my life, how can I watch him leave so inexplicably?" Jiang Changhe cried with a sad face, and there was a tendency for tears to burst out of his eyes.
Yu Qijiang looked at the appearance of the two of them, he was very embarrassed, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said: "Suicide is ruled out, and it is basically determined that he killed him." I'm sorry, that's all I can say!"
"My dad has always been honest and honest, it's unbelievable that someone can do something to him!" Gu Yuanshan's eyes turned red, and tears rolled in his eyes.
"Xiao Gu, mourn! At such a time, you have to cheer up, there are still many things at home counting on you!" Yu Qijiang comforted.
"That's right, Xiao Gu, if you need help, you can squeak!" Jiang Changhe echoed.
"Then I'll go home and take a look first!" Gu Yuanshan took the opportunity to say goodbye.
"Okay, go back quickly. Yu Qijiang sent Gu Yuanshan to the door, Jiang Changhe followed to the door, and said, "I will also leave first, there is an important meeting waiting for me." ”
"Secretary Jiang, then you go slowly, I'll send you. Yu Qijiang kept sending them to the elevator and watched them enter the elevator.
Although there were only Gu Yuanshan and Jiang Changhe in the elevator, neither of them spoke, and they both knew that the monitoring was powerful.
Out of the gate, the two immediately said goodbye to each other and got into the car and left, at this time, any intersection is redundant and dangerous.
At such a time, Gu Yuanshan understood that his acting had to be realistic and perfect, he rushed to Xiao Feng's house, and as soon as he stepped into the door, Mrs. Xiao took his arm and cried bitterly, crying: "Xiao Gu, you are finally back - I finally have the backbone!"
"Mom, don't be too sad, what about me! Did you call Xiaoxue?" Gu Yuanshan helped Mrs. Xiao sit down and kept comforting her.
"Not yet, at this moment, Xiaoxue must be resting, isn't it jet lag - when it's daytime when she's there, let's fight again?" Mrs. Xiao looked at Gu Yuanshan with tears in her eyes and asked for his opinion.
"Okay, let's fight again in the evening. Have you eaten?" Gu Yuanshan asked with concern.
"No—I can't eat it—" Mrs. Xiao shook her head sadly.
"If you don't eat, I'll make it for you, what do you want to eat?" Gu Yuanshan got up and prepared to go to the kitchen to eat.
As if she was afraid that he would run away, Mrs. Xiao grabbed his hand and did not let go, looked up at him in panic, and asked, "Are you leaving?"
"Mom, don't worry, I'm not leaving, I'm with you every day. I'll cook for you. Wait obediently!" Gu Yuanshan looked at Mrs. Xiao with soft eyes.
"Really, then I'll go with you!" Mrs. Xiao was like a child who was on the road, lying coquettishly.
"Okay, let's go together. But you can only watch, don't move?" Gu Yuanshan patted the back of her hand and helped her up.
"Well, I'm obedient and promise not to move!" Mrs. Xiao smiled like a child who had fulfilled her wish.
Gu Yuanshan looked at her appearance, inexplicably sad, he thought that he would never have a moment of soft-heartedness and tenderness, but he overestimated himself, at this moment, he had to admit that he was a human being, not a god.
There are also seven emotions and six desires, there are also chivalrous tenderness, there are pain and happiness, there are also fearlessness and fear-
……
At night, Mrs. Xiao refused to sleep and had to wait to call Xiao Xue.
Gu Yuanshan told her and said, "Mom, you have to control your emotions, you must not let Xiaoxue worry too much, the mountains and rivers are far away, and then you will be in a hurry!"
Mrs. Xiao's mood was much more stable, she didn't cry or make trouble, nodded obediently, and said, "Well, don't say it, I won't say it-"
"Let's just say that Dad is sick and hospitalized, let her come back and take a look, do you know? Dad, this matter has to be kept secret, and it can't be passed on!" Gu Yuanshan was still worried that the old lady would not be able to control her emotions and something would go wrong.
"I won't speak for a while, you say. Mrs. Xiao moved the position next to the telephone and pushed Gu Yuanshan to sit down.
"I said?" Gu Yuanshan was a little flustered, after a few years, let him talk to Xiao Xue again, I really didn't know where to start.
"Yes, you say!" Mrs. Xiao looked at Gu Yuanshan eagerly, after this day, she had already regarded him as a spiritual support.
"Okay, I'll try. Gu Yuanshan reluctantly agreed.
Picking up the microphone and starting to dial, Gu Yuanshan's heart couldn't help but be nervous, and his heart beat faster.
Hearing the sound of beep-beep, he held his breath and looked at the telephone line in a circle uneasily, the phone rang more than a dozen times, no one answered, he looked at Mrs. Xiao with relief, and said, "No one answered." ”
"Call again, Xiaoxue is like that, sometimes dial three or five times before she answers the phone!" Mrs. Xiao urged.
In desperation, Gu Yuanshan had to dial again, and once again experienced a heartbeat. This time, after ringing three times, the phone was connected, and the greeting in pure English: "Hello, imxiaoxue.hoareyou?"
"That-I-Xiao Xue, I'm Gu Yuanshan!" Gu Yuanshan held the phone tightly, sweating in his palms, and stammered his name.
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, but uneven breathing could be heard.
"Xiao Xue-are you-Xiao Xue-" Gu Yuanshan called softly.
“mom,givemeastory!” A childish child's voice came from the earpiece, sounding like a boy.
Gu Yuanshan's heart twitched, painful like a struggle, he turned his head to look at Mrs. Xiao resentfully, and asked suspiciously, "Xiao Xue has a child?"
Mrs. Xiao didn't seem to understand Gu Yuanshan's words, and looked at him in a daze.
“baby,darling,mothercallillgiveyoutellastory.” A string of English came out of the earpiece, Gu Yuanshan didn't understand what was said, but he could hear that it was Xiao Xue's voice.
Gu Yuanshan thought to himself: Since Xiao Xue has started a new life, then, what else can I not let go!
Gu Yuanshan regained his composure and coldness, and asked again, "Xiao Xue, are you there?"
"Hello, I'm here. Are you at my parents' house?" Xiao Xue felt surprised.
“allright!mom,iaitforyouinthere!” Hearing the children's voice again, Gu Yuanshan's heart was not happy, he thought to himself: Is Xiao Xue showing off her happiness to me?
When Gu Yuanshan spoke again, his tone became colder and colder, and he said, "Your father is sick and hospitalized, you hurry back, your mother is very worried, and her condition is not very good!"
"But, I—" Xiao Xue stopped talking.
"What, don't you want to come back, don't you care if your father and mother live or die!" Gu Yuanshan shouted fiercely at the phone.
"Okay, why did you quarrel?" Mrs. Xiao leaned over nervously, looking at Gu Yuanshan, who was pale, and didn't know what to do.
"You listen to me, I really can't get out, and I don't have anyone to take the child with me—he's too young for me to bear to take him on a long journey—" Xiao Xue explained uneasily.
"I can't bear to let my child suffer, so I willfully let my parents suffer?Xiao Xue, you can't help but be too selfish, right?" Gu Yuanshan stood up angrily, if he spoke face-to-face, he really wanted to smoke her, when was it, and he only cared about the child.
He scolded in his heart: "His father can't take the child?"
Tom - Woo -
There was a loud bang, and the cry of a child was heard. Xiao Xue asked nervously, "Baby, hatsthematterithyou?allright?"
“mama-mama-ithurts--”
"Gu Yuanshan, you are not qualified to teach me, thank you for telling me about the situation at home, goodbye!" Xiao Xue hurriedly finished speaking and hung up the phone.
"What kind of person!" Gu Yuanshan hung up the phone fiercely, his muscles bulging with anger, and he was panting heavily.
He thought to himself: I haven't seen her for a few years, Xiao Xue's temper is growing, she doesn't even care about her own parents, what kind of fun is Lao Tzu doing here!
Mrs. Xiao asked tremblingly, "Did you quarrel?"
"Quarrel, I still want to fight!" Gu Yuanshan said angrily.
"It's all my fault—I shouldn't have asked you to call—" Mrs. Xiao rubbed her hands together with a look of guilt.
Seeing Mrs. Xiao's sad appearance, Gu Yuanshan's heart softened, he helped Mrs. Xiao sit down, and comforted: "Mom, it's none of your business, don't blame yourself!"
"What did you just ask me?" asked Mrs. Xiao suddenly.
"Did I ask you?" Gu Yuanshan was so confused that he couldn't remember what he had asked for a while.
"Asked, think again!" Mrs. Xiao looked at him with affirmation.
Gu Yuanshan scratched his head, really thinking about it, and suddenly, his face changed, he turned blue and white, his eyes stared sharply at Mrs. Xiao, and asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Xue got married and had children in the United States?"
Mrs. Xiao was frightened by Gu Yuanshan's expression, and stammered and replied, "What are you talking about—this—how is it possible!"
"Impossible? Today, you still want to lie to me?" Gu Yuanshan became excited, and his voice was very loud.
"I said no, no, no matter how bad the relationship between you two is, Xiao Xue can't marry someone else and have children without divorcing you!" Mrs. Xiao tried to protect her daughter's reputation, forgetting her grief for the time being.
"I heard it so well, there was a child who called her mother, and when she heard the voice, she was only two or three years old—" Gu Yuanshan spoke with facts.
"Xiao Gu, I dare to vouch for my personality, Xiaoxue is definitely not married, even if she goes abroad, it is impossible not to talk to her parents about the marriage event!" Mrs. Xiao remembered crying.
Not wanting to continue to dwell on this matter and make Mrs. Xiao sad, Gu Yuanshan made a concession, he said, "Mom, okay, don't be sad, I believe you, can't you do it yet?"
"Woo-you just believe it!" Mrs. Xiao wiped her tears with an innocent face.
"Okay, let's go to bed quickly!" Mrs. Gu Yuanshan got up and helped her into the bedroom.
"You haven't told me yet, when will Xiaoxue come back?" Mrs. Xiao looked sideways at Gu Yuanshan and asked expectantly.
Gu Yuanshan was silent for a moment before he said: "Xiao Xue said, hand over the work and come back immediately! Don't be too anxious, how far is the United States, where can you come back in three or five days?"
"With you, my heart is so much better!" Mrs. Xiao lay down on the bed peacefully and closed her eyes.
Gu Yuanshan retreated to the door, turned off the light, and lit a cigarette on the sofa in the living room.
