Chapter 228: Abnormally Pale
When Gu Yanran woke up, the sky was already bright, she looked at the side, it was empty, and she remembered that Wen Yanzhi had the presence last night.
There was a brocade box at the head of the bed, Gu Yanran took it and held it in her arms, and looked at it carefully, she had been to Gu's house many times when she was a child, but she had never seen her mother holding this brocade box, and there was a word "memory" on the brocade box, it was obvious that someone had carved it later, and it had been for some years.
The edges and corners of the brocade box have been smoothed a little, not caused by bumps, but by the owner of the box often touching it.
Gu Yanran was even more sure that this thing must be a very important thing to her mother, but what about the key? her mother had never left her anything like a key, let alone the Xu family, at that time, her mother and the Xu family had broken off contact, and it was even more impossible for her mother to send things to the Xu family.
In this way, the matter seems to have reached a dead end.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?" Gu Yanran immediately put the brocade box on the head of the bed.
"It's me. ”
Gu Yanran immediately stood up, opened the door, and said, "Say."
"Just woke up?"
Today, he was wearing a white shirt, like a clear breeze and a bright moon, clear and handsome, Gu Yanran was a little distracted for a while.
"It's so good-looking?" Wen Yanzhi couldn't help but smile when she saw her stunned.
Gu Yanran tilted his head in embarrassment, "No, I'm ...... I'll go wash up first. She ran to the bathroom.
When she came out again, she found Wen Yanzhi sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the brocade box she originally placed at the head of the bed, looking at it carefully.
"Can you open this without a key?" Gu Yanran walked over and sat next to him.
"I don't know. Wen Yanzhi said with some hesitation: "I seem to have seen this somewhere." ”
"What, have you seen it, where is it?" Gu Yanran asked eagerly, holding his hand.
"I don't remember it either, just a vague impression. He looked up at Gu Yanran, "Do you Xu family like to use this kind of brocade box?" Every time Yan Ran takes things, he also likes to use brocade boxes.
"It can't be so absolute, it's just my personal preference, my mother sometimes likes to use brocade boxes to pack things, this is my mother's, it was given to me by Old Man Gu yesterday. ”
"He gave it to you, can you be sure that this thing is your mother's?" It's not that he is suspicious, Old Man Gu's words are seven points, and it is good to believe three points.
"I'm sure. Gu Yanran took the brocade box in his hand and showed him the side with words, "This is my mother's name." ”
Memory?
Wen Yan was stunned, he originally thought that this word was just a definition of "memory" for this brocade box, so he engraved this word on it, but it turned out to be her mother's name.
And in addition to this brocade box, it is not the first time he has seen the word "memory".
Things seem to be starting to pick up some of the eyebrows.
"What's wrong?, have you thought of anything?" Gu Yanran saw him
In deep thought, I couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing, maybe misremembered. "He wasn't going to tell her those things first, he had to look into it again, lest she be happy in vain.
Gu Yanran was a little disappointed and sighed.
At that moment, there was another knock on the door.
"Who?" she was buzzing here.
"It's me. Gu Xinran stood at the door and said, "Are you up?" If you get up, let's go down and have breakfast together." ”
"Okay, I got it. Gu Yanran glanced at Wen Yan next to him, and said in a low voice: "Wait for me to go first, and you will go downstairs later." ”
"Why?" Wen Yanzhi looked at her in confusion.
"Avoid suspicion. "It's so early in the morning, if the Gu family sees the two of them coming out of a room, it's okay.
"No, I don't have to. Wen Yanzhi took the things in her hand and put them down, pulled her and walked to the door.
"Eh, eh!" Gu Yanran was a little anxious, Gu Xinran was still at the door.
"It's okay, she saw it yesterday. Wen Yanzhi smiled, Gu Yanran couldn't understand the meaning of his smile for a while.
"What do you mean?
"Nothing. Wen Yanzhi was not ready to explain anything to her, so he walked to the door and opened it.
"Yanran, grandpa said-" Gu Xinran was stunned for a moment when he saw the two people who came out, he looked at Wen Yanzhi in a daze, did he stay in Gu Yanran's room last night?
"Sister, good morning!" Gu Yanran raised a smile that couldn't be brighter anymore, and held Wen Yanzhi's hand, "I'm really sorry to bother you to come and call us." ”
"Where, as it should be. Gu Xinran smiled reluctantly, "Let's go downstairs, grandpa is waiting." ”
"Good. Gu Yanran took Wen Yanzhi's hand and walked downstairs.
The whole family of the Gu family was sitting at the table, and to her surprise, Zhu Xin and Gu Keran were also there, which should have been specially arranged by Old Man Gu, and the two vacant positions happened to be adjacent and were arranged to his left.
Old Man Gu put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at the two approaching people, and the smile on his face overflowed, "Here, how was your rest last night?"
"It's not bad, thank you Mr. Gu. Wen Yanzhi nodded and pulled out a chair for Gu Yanran.
"Hahaha, you kid, you still take care of Mr. Gu, it's too raw, forget it outside, it's not as good as now, you will call grandpa in private, and we will be a family soon. Old Man Gu glanced at the servants next to him, and breakfast was brought up one by one.
Wen Yanzhi just smiled and didn't refute his words, but only he understood the meaning of this smile.
"I don't know what flavor you like, so I'll make the kitchen a little more. Old man Gu looked at Gu Yanran, who was sitting next to him without saying a word, "Yanran, you also eat more, I see how you have lost a lot of weight recently, and your face is not very good, I thought you were rushing over, people are too tired, how can you rest all night."
Such. ”
Old Man Gu's words made everyone's eyes look at Gu Yanran.
Gu Yanran's current appearance is indeed a little abnormal, her skin has always been very fair, but from yesterday to now, she has shown an unhealthy paleness, her chin is also pointed, and she looks very thin, I don't know if it is an illusion, I feel that her eye sockets are also a little deep.
"I don't know, I thought you were the one who donated blood yesterday. Gu Keran glanced at Gu Yanran and couldn't help but mock.
"Well, how to speak. Zhu Xin glanced at Gu Keran unhappily and reprimanded.
Old Man Gu's eyes changed when he looked at Gu Keran, but he didn't say anything.
"After all, my father is still lying in the hospital, and I haven't slept well all night, so my face may be a little worse. Gu Yanran raised his head and smiled at Gu Keran, "If you still have a ruddy complexion, that's the strangest thing, isn't it?"
"Gu Yanran, what do you mean by this!" Gu Keran stood up angrily, how could she not hear Gu Yanran talking about her in a roundabout way.
"But, what kind of place should you be!" Zhu Xin immediately pulled her down, why was this child so unbreathable, and he was angry when Gu Yanran said it, now, Gu Yanran is the person held by Old Man Gu, she even went to provoke her, this is an old house, not at home, not to mention that her husband is still lying in the hospital, at this time, if others are embarrassed, who will come to help their mother and daughter.
Lin Mannan pursed his lips and didn't speak, picked up his coffee and took a sip.
"Yanran, why don't you eat it. Gu Shaodong saw that Gu Yanran had been drinking milk, so he didn't necessarily have to move his chopsticks.
"I don't eat a lot in the morning. Gu Yanran smiled apologetically, she looked at the few breakfasts on the table, and she had no appetite at all.
"Hello, do you have any oranges, if so, cut some for me. Wen Yanzhi beckoned to the servant next to him.
"Okay, okay. The maid entered the kitchen under the gesture of Old Man Gu's eyes.
After seeing the plate of oranges in front of him, Gu Yanran looked at Wen Yanzhi and smiled, he always seemed to know what she needed most when she needed it.
Sure enough, she ate these things in front of her.
From the other end of the table came a small muttering "hypocrisy".
Gu Yanran ignored her and ate by herself, she hadn't eaten properly for several days, so she could only rely on these to barely survive first.
After this meal, the atmosphere was unusually harmonious, and after Old Man Gu put down his chopsticks, everyone also put down the tableware in their hands.
"Don't worry too much about your father, we'll take care of it, if your studies are tight, you can go back first, and it's not too late to come and see him when you're free. Old Man Gu said understandingly.
"No, I also took a leave of absence from the school, and I will accompany my dad during this time. "It's been a long time since I've been to the school, and it's not a day or two.
"It's okay or good. Old Man Gu nodded with satisfaction, "You also have to pay attention to your body, don't be too tired." ”
"Good. Gu Yanran nodded.
After speaking, Old Man Gu got up and walked to the study, and then the dining table returned to its proper atmosphere.
"Yanran, if you are not in good health, should you go to the hospital to have a look, it is not good to drag it out like this, and it will not be good to stay up from a minor illness to a major illness at that time. Lin Mannan looked at Gu Yanran, who was a little weak, and said with "concern".
"Thank you aunt for your kindness, I know my own body, it's fine. Gu Yanran glanced at Gu Keran, "Aren't you going to the hospital, let's go together." ”
"Gu Yanran, I don't usually see you come to the Gu family, but now that Dad has an accident, you are sticking to the Gu family, what's the matter? Do you still want to play a well-behaved and filial daughter in front of everyone?" Gu Keran snorted lightly.
"Are the young ladies of the Gu family so sharp-toothed?" Wen Yanzhi smiled, "No wonder I always suffer here in Yanran." ”
As soon as Gu Keran wanted to refute, she was stopped by Zhu Xin's hand, and Gu Keran reacted at this time, outsiders didn't know that she and Gu Yanran were half-sisters, and it seemed that Gu Yanran shouldn't have mentioned it to him.
"Acting?" Gu Yanran sneered, "At this point, I can't compare to your sister." Gu Yanran smiled at Gu Keran again, looking harmless.
"You-" Gu Keran stretched out his hand to hit her, but was suddenly frightened by a sharp look next to him and froze in place.
"Is this what Miss Gu did? It's the first time I've seen her. Wen Yanzhi raised a faint smile at her, but it was full of sarcasm. He took Gu Yanran's hand and walked out.
"What are you talking so much nonsense with her?" Gu Yanran followed his speed quickly, and the two stopped in front of a black car.
"If you don't look back at home in the future, you really have to come, and you have to tell me. Wen Yanzhi glanced in the direction of the Gu family with disgust, looking at the girl in front of him and couldn't help sighing, the Xu family took her away, it was the most correct decision to make.
"What's the matter, are you still afraid that people will eat me?" Gu Yanran couldn't help but smile when he saw his nervous look.
"Don't take it lightly. Wen Yanzhi knocked her on the head, "The Gu family will use everyone thoroughly before they get their last benefits, and they are no exception, let alone you." ”
"Don't worry, if I were afraid, I wouldn't be here. Gu Yanran looked at the door of the Gu family and sneered, one day, she would be clean from here.
……
There were only three people left at the Gu family's table, Lin Mannan looked at his daughter's face, and couldn't help but comfort: "Child, it's okay, we still have a chance." ”
"Opportunity?" Gu Xinran laughed at herself, "Mom, do you understand? Grandpa has already given up on me." ”
"You kid, what stupid thing are you talking about, your grandfather loves you the most. ”
"Mom, haven't you figured out the situation yet?" Gu Xinran looked at the mother in front of him, who had never been angry, "Grandpa doesn't hurt me
Love, just because I can exchange the greatest benefit for him, and now that this person has become Gu Yanran, I am nothing, do you understand?"
"Xinran, don't feel bad, Dad will fight for you. Gu Shaodong saw that his baby daughter was so uncomfortable, and he felt very uncomfortable, and secretly made up his mind.
"Dad, do you know how to really destroy a person?" Gu Xinran looked in the direction of the door, the sharpness in his eyes made Gu Shaodong feel shocked, he had never seen his daughter show such a look.
I only heard Gu Xinran say slowly:
"The one who made her the most precious - to destroy her personally. ”
