Chapter 204: Pedal on Two Boats
Mrs. Fei raised her eyebrows, looked at Bai Yuqian, and asked, "Isn't that your stepfather passing away?"
Bai Yuqian picked up the coffee cup and just took a sip, when she suddenly heard Mrs. Fei's words, she almost squirted out the coffee in her mouth.
Smiled apologetically at Mrs. Fei, Bai Yuqian took the tissue on the table and wiped her mouth, avoiding Mrs. Fei's slightly displeased eyes by the way.
The word "stepfather", to Bai Yuqian's ears, is too harsh, when Guo Hongyuan was alive, Bai Yuqian didn't want to be close to the surname Guo, no one will die, she ran to recognize her relatives, thinking about it, she felt that she was humiliating herself.
"Just call your mother, middle-aged widowhood is a very heavy blow to any woman, you take the initiative to comfort her, do your duty as a daughter, let your mother experience the warmth of family affection, and maybe this can ease your relationship. Mrs. Fei's tone was pertinent.
Bai Yuqian was stunned when she heard it directly, and she couldn't understand why Mrs. Fei liked to other people's hearts so much.
"Hurry up!" Mrs. Fei urged, with a "I'll be staring at you today" expression.
Bai Yuqian hesitated, and picked up the mobile phone that had been placed on the table again.
"In my cognition, no one has the ability to break the system of social moral norms, no matter how hard you work or succeed in your career, in the final analysis, you can't get out of your original social role and assume the corresponding responsibilities," Mrs. Fei looked at Bai Yuqian: "You may think I'm forcing you, but if you don't take this step, you will always be stuck in the resulting trouble." ”
"Aunt Fay, there's no way I'm going to make this call, I'm going to disappoint you. Bai Yuqian put the phone back in her backpack and said in a soothing tone as much as possible.
"You kid really can't understand the reason?" Madame Fei's displeasure was already overflowing.
"Auntie, in fact, I can tell you perfunctory, I have never had Mrs. Guo's phone, so I don't know where to call," Bai Yuqian said very calmly: "But I have to tell you the truth, I don't want to make this call from the bottom of my heart, I respect you and the discipline you are studying, real life does not pay attention to any system, I can only say that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and outsiders may not understand." ”
Mrs. Fei's face was already gloomy, and she raised her head and asked: "I don't tell you the theory, but for a mother, being pregnant and giving birth to her own child in October is like passing through a ghost gate, she exchanged her life for you, did she get such an indifferent reward from you?"
Bai Yuqian lowered her head and didn't speak for a long time, this was not her confusion many years ago, but what she was even more puzzled about was why Mrs. Guo could abandon her own daughter indifferently and ruthlessly, and never had any self-reflection, but now she was asked to repay her grievances with virtue.
"I'm not questioning you, I just hope you can think about it from your mother's point of view, even if she didn't take care of you after the divorce, even if she has a bad temper and is worldly, it's not a reason for you to resent her, because she is the person you have to be grateful for the most," Speaking of this, Mrs. Fei stood up, changed her tone to a more gentle tone, and said to Bai Yuqian: " Sometimes to forgive others is to let yourself go, especially if the other party is the mother who gave birth to you, you think about it, my idea is that you decide to call Xiao Mu after you decide and ask him to accompany you to meet your mother, at least you have to do your best. ”
Bai Yuqian got up, watched Mrs. Fei leave the café straight, then walked to the street, got into a taxi, and walked away.
After sitting in the café for a few more minutes, Bai Yuqian took the mobile phone and called Lao Bai.
"Yu Qian, are you going to come back for dinner at noon?" asked Lao Bai with a smile on the phone.
"Dad, do you think I'm a bad daughter?" asked Bai Yuqian, holding her cheeks.
I can't help but say that the lethality of Mrs. Fei's theories is amazing, and Bai Yuqian is about to lose confidence at this moment.
"Little girl, what are you talking about," Lao Bai's voice was surprised, and then he laughed: "Suddenly calling me 'Dad', it's either that I'm in trouble again, or I have something to teach Dad." ”
"I'm at odds with Zhao Yinxia, don't you damn it?" Bai Yuqian asked again.
Lao Bai was obviously asked now, and after a while, he sighed: "Qianqian, when I saw the Fei family's parents that time, your mother shouted at you to kill you, like that...... I can't stand it, no matter how I say it, in front of your future mother-in-law, I should always leave you some dignity, and my father also thinks that your mother has done too much, and I won't force you to ease relations with her in the future, there is no such mother in the world!"
After listening to Lao Bai's words, Bai Yuqian breathed a sigh of relief, because of the blockages added by Mrs. Fei just now, it seemed to have dissipated a little.
Lao Bai seemed to feel that something was wrong, and asked: "You kid, why did you suddenly say this, won't your mother come to trouble you again?"
"No, it's just idle and sitting in a café thinking. Bai Yuqian laughed, but she had a headache again, and she didn't know how to deal with Mrs. Fei later.
"Come back for dinner at noon, I'll prepare it for you now?" Lao Bai didn't ask any further, and said with a smile.
"I'm going to the Grand Theater in a while, and I won't be back at noon, but you can't compromise!" Bai Yuqian couldn't help but advise, as long as she and Kai Kai were not eating at home, Lao Bai would love to make do.
"Okay, I'll be in charge of my daughter for the rest of my life!" Lao Bai smiled very happily.
Bai Yuqian was about to hang up the phone, but suddenly thought of something, weighed it for a moment, and decided to tell Lao Bai: "Lao Bai, I just got a message, but you have to promise me first, just listen to it, don't meddle with other people's affairs." ”
"My daughter is too powerful, and she asked me for conditions before she could open her mouth. Lao Bai deliberately snorted.
"Guo Hongyuan is dead, it is said that he committed suicide, this matter will come out sooner or later, I mean, don't be impulsive, run to comfort Zhao Yinxia......" Bai Yuqian said, and specially advised: "You just pretend that you don't know anything!"
On the phone, Lao Bai didn't answer for a long time.
"Lao Bai, did you hear what I said?" Bai Yuqian regretted telling Lao Bai about this again, and simply added: "That's it, Kai Kai is out of school in the afternoon, and I will ask Junting to come and pick you up to watch my evening performance, you are not allowed to go anywhere before this, can you promise me?"
After a long time, Lao Bai said "um", and then Bai Yuqian heard him mutter: "Repay life with life, heaven is unhappy!"
Bai Yuqian's heart moved suddenly, and after thinking for a moment, she simply asked tentatively: "...... who killed Lin Dayong?" It's Guo Hongyuan, right?"
"Who told you?!" Lao Bai immediately asked in astonishment.
Bai Yuqian leaned back in her seat and let out a long sigh, it seemed that she didn't need to ask any more.
After ending the call with Lao Bai, Bai Yuqian stood up, went to the front desk to pay the bill, and walked out of the café briskly.
A few days later......
Yue Ningzhi also came over for Bai Yuqian's performance this night, and after it was over, Bai Yuqian simply got into her car and prepared to leave together.
"Didn't you give you a ticket and let you ask Yuanhui to come out, why are you still alone?" Bai Yuqian sat in the passenger seat, and asked Yue Ningzhi with a side smile.
"When people go on business trips abroad, didn't Fu Junruo report to you?" Yue Ningzhi deliberately glanced at Bai Yuqian.
Bai Yuqian, who was teased, was not polite, and reached out to twist it on Yue Ningzhi's earlobe, and then remembered that Kai Kai is good
As I mentioned to her, Uncle Ling next door was not at home for several days.
"Talk well, don't move your hands and feet, I'm going to drive!" Yue Ningzhi flashed to the side, and then started the car: "Just kidding, don't be so weak-minded, by the way, how is it going with your boyfriend recently?"
"Progress...... So be it, he came to see me perform the day before yesterday. Bai Yuqian said, but let out a long sigh.
Yue Ningzhi turned the steering wheel, looked ahead and said, "Don't be listless when you mention Fei Mu, if you hear it by Fu Junruo, it will easily cause misunderstanding." ”
"Are you alright!" Bai Yuqian was already crying and laughing.
"Okay, then let's talk about it, is the sigh because of Fei Mu's mother?" Yue Ningzhi couldn't help but smile and asked.
Bai Yuqian leaned back on the seat, looked at the roof of the car and said: "I had a nightmare one night, Aunt Fei actually became good sisters with Zhao Yinxia, the two of them talked and laughed, walking in the Fu family's garden, but when they saw me appear, Zhao Yinxia scolded directly, I turned around and wanted to leave, but I was stopped by Aunt Fei, saying that I can't be disloyal and unfilial......"
This dream was too real, Bai Yuqian was so frightened that she sat up directly from the bed, covered with cold sweat.
"Why are you talking so terrible?" Yue Ning was handsome with a face, and then persuaded Bai Yuqian: "If you decide to continue to develop with Fei Mu, there are some things that you can't help but face, you can't break off with Fei Mu because of a Zhao Yinxia, right?"
"I'm really a little unsure," Bai Yuqian said self-deprecatingly: "That day Fei Mu came over, I specially talked to him about the problem between me and Zhao Yinxia, he said that he would tell Aunt Fei, and then asked me if I wanted to go to see Zhao Yinxia together." ”
"Fei Mu's attitude?" Yue Ningzhi asked curiously.
Bai Yuqian thought for a while and said, "He said that he would communicate with his mother, but he also suggested that I talk to Zhao Yinxia." ”
"Fei Mu, I think the person is okay, it may be that he doesn't know much about the situation, so he has this kind of thought," Yue Ningzhi glanced at Bai Yuqian quickly: "However, you should be mentally prepared, I feel that Fei Mu's mother may be more subjective, and in the future, you can tolerate it, otherwise it will ......"
"Hey, you can't speak ill of your elders. Bai Yuqian deliberately joked, but she was helpless in her heart, and she didn't know how to endure it?
Yue Ningzhi didn't know what to think, turned his head and smiled at Bai Yuqian: "Actually, it doesn't matter, isn't there still Fu Junruo's infatuation with you, before you got married, you had the absolute right to choose, but think about it, Fu Junruo's mother is only afraid that it will be more difficult to deal with than Aunt Fei." ”
"Do you think I'm pedaling two boats?" Bai Yuqian frowned and looked out the front window.
"Okay, I don't mean anything else, you think too much," Yue Ningzhi stretched out his hand, rubbed Bai Yuqian's shoulder, and then said, "Big news, Guo Hongyuan went out for the funeral this morning." ”
Bai Yuqian glanced at Yue Ning and shook his head.
"Although Guo Huili is a little disgraced now, I heard that this funeral was very lively," Yue Ningzhi continued: "The pomp and circumstance are not small, and many celebrities are invited to attend, and some people comment that this is Guo Huili taking the opportunity to tell the public that he has not fallen yet and can continue to hold on." ”
Bai Yuqian muttered, "Guo Hongyuan......"
"When you called me that day, I thought about it seriously, and I also felt that Guo Hongyuan was most likely the real murderer who killed Lin Dayong. Yue Ningzhi asked.
"I've been pondering for a while, why did Guo Hongyuan kill Lin Dayong back then, I heard that Lin Dayong was still killed by several knives in his body, what kind of grievances did the two people have, and why was Lao Bai involved, and even became a substitute for the dead?" Bai Yuqian put her arm on the frame of the car, supported her head and muttered.
I called Lao Bai in the café that day, Bai Yuqian never mentioned the word "Guo Hongyuan" to him again, as for whether Lao Bai went to Mrs. Guo, Bai Yuqian didn't ask, she chose to believe Lao Bai.
And now, one thing is becoming clearer and clearer, Mrs. Guo is very likely to be the insider of Lin Dayong's murder case, Bai Yuqian tried to recall the first few times she met Mrs. Guo, her almost manic performance, the more she thought about it, the more suspicious she felt, the information revealed in Mrs. Guo's words was as if she believed that Bai Yuqian had already known the truth and was already dealing with them.
"There is a rumor," Yue Ningzhi said, "I can't be too sure at the moment, it is said that Guo Hongyuan's death is a little strange, when he was discovered, he was holding a gray coat stained with a large patch of blood, and the blood stains on that coat have turned yellow and are still broken." ”
Bai Yuqian's heart was stunned, and she immediately turned her head to look at Yue Ningzhi: "Do you want to be so scary?"
