Chapter 14: The Father and the Son

There was a faint smell of disinfectant water wafting in the room, and there were a few pots of orchids on the windowsill, and Miao Shifan had a new collection of herbs in which there was a chapter dedicated to orchids, and the pots on the windowsill were not difficult to see from the shape of the leaves that they were valuable. It seems that Liang Bida is at least telling the truth about the fact that the cheap dad is very rich.

Gu Tianyou already knew that the man on the sickbed was named Gu Yufei, and he was the village director of a famous village in Wudong Prefecture. What he didn't know was that although Gu Yufei was only a village director, he enjoyed department-level treatment.

Because that village is called Wolongtang, it has the reputation of the first village in Wudong Province.

Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the sea to eat the sea. Sixteen years ago, Wolongtang was just a small fishing port village surrounded by mountains and seas. At that time, Gu Yufei was still a smuggling leader who drove a speedboat to die at sea. Yu Shaofen is one of the many lovers around him. Sixteen years later, Gu Yufei had already changed his ways, gained fame and fortune, but fate dealt him a heavy blow at this time. He had cancer and searched the world for medical treatment, but he did not find any hope until he was terminally ill. It wasn't until the moment when a person was about to die that he remembered that there was no successor.

Over the years, he has found many women happily, but except for the three daughters born to his original wife, none of the other women have appeared. The doctor said it was because of a flight from the sea 16 years ago that caused a severe cold injury to his vitality.

A while ago, the old enemy Liang Bida suddenly took the initiative to come to the door and told Gu Yufei that he still had a sixteen-year-old son who was outcast. For this terminally ill middle-aged billionaire with no successor, the allure of this news is too great. Gu Yufei knew that the other party would not have any good intentions, but he still couldn't refuse.

That's why there was such a meeting.

Gu Tianyou stood quietly in front of the sickbed, and Gu Yufei lay there silently. The Father and the Son, two men, were watching each other.

Gu Yufei has seen a lot of dramas in his life in front of entanglements of interests, and his relatives turn against each other. The process of finding Tianyou was not out of initiative, if it weren't for the successor, even he would have thought about refusing to recognize Gu Tianyou. Seeing each other at this moment, even though Gu Yufei had a little affection for licking calves in his heart, he would not show any of it.

Although he already knew something about Tianyou's past, in Gu Yufei's opinion, this meeting was still too hasty and even sudden. If he follows his original temperament, he will definitely do his homework before the moment when father and son recognize each other. First of all, he will find a way to understand what has happened to Gu Tianyou in the past fifteen years, no matter how big or small, and then make targeted arrangements and arrangements, until the right time comes, and then recognize his son.

But now, these thoughts could only pass through his mind, and he didn't have the time to wait for that moment to come.

He stared at the young man in front of him, with the same tall figure as when he was young, his appearance was indeed somewhat similar, the same sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and the bridge of his nose was high, but his cheeks were a little less angular, and a little more feminine and delicate. Looking at it, watching, he suddenly remembered Yu Shaofen back then, the woman who was weak on the outside and crazy on the inside, who had fought for his sins and almost killed their brother. This young man's face is very similar to Yu Shaofen. Then he thought of the news about this young man that he had inquired about before, and there was a trace of disgust in his heart, and he was a little unwilling and angry.

This notorious and uneducated seductress is my Gu Yufei's only son?

Silently, time passed, and the little expectation in Gu Yufei's heart gradually disappeared, leaving only worry and unwillingness.

The first meeting of the biological father and son, who had never met before, should have been a warm and exciting moment, but the atmosphere in the ward at this moment was extremely solemn.

Gu Tianyou's process of finding his roots and recognizing his ancestors did not have too many dramatic scenes. A cold paternity test proves the paternity between himself and the man on the sickbed. But they can't change the distance between each other.

The professional skills learned from Miao Shifan told Tianyou that this man was terminally ill. The disease is born from the heart, and a middle-aged man whose career is in the stage of spring breeze and horseshoe disease should not have such a disease. There was a lingering deep worry in Gu Yufei's demeanor, although he tried his best to hide it, he couldn't escape Gu Tianyou's eyes.

This man, who has clearly stood above the crowd, must have suffered unknown suffering.

Looking at the middle-aged man on the sickbed who was obviously running out of time, Gu Tianyou's thoughts were flying, and he hesitated whether he wanted to recognize this man? Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, Tianyou seems to have no choice on this issue, after being an orphan for 16 years, a middle-aged rich businessman suddenly appeared and claimed to be his biological father-son relationship, who can refuse this kind of pie-in-the-sky beauty?

Lao Immortal often said that when people walk in the rivers and lakes, the beauty of pies falling from the sky cannot be believed, and craftsmen have to point to the things in their hands to live. The pie in front of me tastes beautiful, but it contains highly poisonous.

If he recognizes Gu Yufei, and this cheap dad doesn't have a long life, then the more things he leaves to himself, the more trouble he will bring, does he have the ability to deal with those troubles? Long Ye often said how big a belly to eat and how big a banquet to eat, and Gu Tianyou had to weigh his own weight before making a decision.

Gu Yufei didn't speak, waiting for Gu Tianyou to make a statement first. Gu Tianyou was still hesitating in his heart, should he immediately rush over and cry and scream for his father, or should he not say a word and immediately turn around and leave, even if he returned to the juvenile detention center, he would have to stay away from this troubled man?

Liang Bida arranged the meeting, but the barrister who was full of lies clearly did not have any good intentions. Although he can't be sure of his purpose, he can at least be sure that he hates the man in front of him to the bone, and at the same time, he doesn't hold back any good farts to himself.

Perhaps the current situation is that whether he admits it or not, this lawyer Liang has achieved his goal.

Gu Yufei on the hospital bed frowned, his expression was full of complicated emotions, there was a little expectation, but more helplessness and anger.

Gu Tianyou's reaction greatly surprised him. He wondered, was the young man in front of him stupid and completely unaware of what was going on? Or is it mentally unstable, already carried away by a huge surprise and completely unsure of how to express it?

"Your name is Gu Tianyou?" After a long silence, it was Gu Yufei who broke the silence first.

His illness was getting worse and worse, and every word he said seemed to be an exhaustion.

"Gu is the Gu of God's favor, and God's blessing is the meaning of God's blessing."

Gu Tianyou's expression was indifferent. The words deliberately revealed the meaning of keeping a distance from Gu Yufei.

Gu Yufei was slightly surprised, what does this kid mean by that? Does he still want to dissociate himself from Lao Tzu? This speculation immediately aroused his curiosity, and he suddenly became interested, and said intentionally: "After all, you can't write two Gu characters with one stroke, otherwise why don't you call Yu Tianyou." ”

"Actually, it's not bad to call Yu Tianyou." Gu Tianyou paused slightly before continuing: "Maybe with this name, I don't have to face the current problem." ”

"Puzzle?" Gu Yufei frowned slightly, this kid seemed to really intend to get rid of himself. He was a little surprised, and even more incredulous at the calmness and deep meaning of the young man in front of him. From these simple conversations, he seemed to have discovered a new continent and was very interested: "Why do you say that? ”

Gu Yufei was lying there, skinny and withered. Gu Tianyou looked at the man in front of him who gave him life. Thinking that this man who was connected to his blood had run out of gas, he couldn't help but flash a touch of pity in his heart, and said slowly: "With all due respect, as far as I can see, you seem to be in trouble, and it is difficult to protect yourself, and I suspect that I will soon be in trouble after I recognize you." ”

This sentence is very straightforward. After saying a word, Gu Yufei was completely stunned. Of course, he understood the meaning of Gu Tianyou's words, and couldn't help but think in his heart, how did this child grow up, how could he have such a stable psychological quality and keen observation at such a young age? What did he see?

Although there was not much left in the passage of life, Gu Yufei's hands were clenched into fists, staring at Gu Tianyou intently, there was surprise in his heart, but more surprise.

"How do you see that?" He suppressed his mood and asked again, "Can you tell me what you see?" ”

"I studied medicine with people for a few days when I was in it, and I can probably see that your condition is not good, this ward is so luxurious, as long as you are not blind, you can see that you are a big man who is not an official or a businessman, a few pots of orchid grass on the windowsill, there is a pot I know, called Heguan Suyu, I heard that the value is more than one million, Liang Bida told me that your identity is the village director of Wolongtang Village, although I have little knowledge, but I also know how big an official the village director is, hey, if you are really a big official, it would be better, at least there will not be too many property disputes, It's a pity that you're a businessman. ”

"What's wrong with the merchant?" Gu Yufei asked rhetorically, his tone cold and hard. He didn't like the tone in which Gu Tianyou spoke, and the meaning of being a cold bystander and not caring about himself was concerned.

"I met a few businessmen when I was inside, at the beginning they were all powerless, powerless, black and white, only knew how to make money, but at a certain stage of development, they had to get involved with the people on these two roads, the reason why the few I knew went in, some of them followed the fallen white road characters to eat and scrape, and some were carried away by a few bad money, and ran up the black road with their heads, and finally folded in." Gu Tianyou didn't hide it, and continued: "In these years, business is more difficult to do than officials, there is more money, the more money you make, the more troubles you will follow, it is difficult to play without a backstage cover, and you will fold yourself in it if you are not careful." ”

"Hey!"

Gu Yufei sighed deeply, the tribulation is indeed the best teacher in life. Thinking about the descendants of the same age as Tianyou in the village, it is really hard to imagine how this young man survived in the first sixteen years.

"Strictly speaking, I'm a businessman." He nodded patiently and asked, "How can you tell that I'm in trouble right now?" ”

"I guessed." Gu Tianyou felt a trace of warmth and relief from Gu Yufei's eager gaze, which was a sign of burning life and returning to the light. His tone was eager and full of hope. Gu Tianyou couldn't help but think under the gaze of this gaze, the person in front of him was his biological father after all.

Feelings need to be cultivated, but family affection is innate. Facing this cheap dad who was dying soon, Gu Tianyou was a little unbearable, and added: "As the saying goes, illness is born from the heart, and the trouble of having such a serious illness for a character like you must not be small." ”

"There is also a saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse." Gu Yufei said: "You recognize me, you are the Gu family's species, no matter how troublesome I am, at least I can leave a property that is enough for you to live a good life." ”

Gu Tianyou took a deep breath and nodded: "You can indeed do it, maybe your trouble won't have much to do with me, but I also know a saying: the tree falls down, and when you really fall 616161616161"

Gu Tianyou's words were left in half, and the content behind it was not difficult to imagine. For Tianyou, the real threat does not necessarily come from the outside world, once Gu Yufei completely falls, why should a sixteen-year-old boy who has no emotional foundation with this family and grew up in prison fight for inheritance with others?

Gu Yufei listened silently and looked carefully at the young man in front of him. Gu Tianyou's tone was indifferent, and he talked eloquently, and his sharp eyes flashed with a confident and calm look that did not match his age. Everything that happened at the moment made Gu Yufei can't help but have a doubt, how could this teenager become a notorious seductree? At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder, how did this child get over the fourteen years of prison at the beginning of his life?

"You studied medicine? Do you know my pots of orchids? How did you learn this in there? Gu Yufei suddenly wanted to know more details about Tianyou.

"It doesn't matter who I learned from, the important thing is that I am not as you think, admittedly, it was a surprise for me to see you and find the source of my life, but this does not mean that I have to burst into tears, throw myself into your arms and call you Dad, and then when you run out of gas, bear the residual hatred of those enemies against you."

Speaking of this, Gu Tianyou simply spoke freely, and continued: "In addition to the enemy, I believe that you have other children, relatives and friends, among them are brothers who started from scratch with you, and there are husbands and wives who share weal and woe with you, I guess they will not welcome me into your circle and take anything that should belong to them." ”

Liang Bida mentioned a woman, maybe he told a lie at the time, but this woman must have existed.

Gu Tianyou simply opened the skylight to say bright words, and said what he thought without reservation.

Gu Yufei listened silently, his heart was already surging at this moment, and he was speechless.

Gu Tianyou's maturity and shrewdness greatly surprised him. Facing those eyes that were so similar to him, and seemed to be able to see through the world, he suddenly felt that all words were pale and powerless, and he could not express his surprise at the moment. Gu Tianyou's performance greatly surprised him. I thought it was just a tool to inherit the lineage, but I suddenly found that it seemed that there was someone to succeed me?

"If I had a choice, I would rather stay in it than be deceived by Liang Bida in front of you, see you lying there weakly, if I haven't seen you, at least I can imagine you living somewhere in the world, maybe mediocrity or excellence or hatred Maybe there are unspeakable hardships, but now, I can only accept the fact that my appearance is likely to accelerate you to death, the most unfortunate thing is that this fact destroyed my sixteen years of illusion and allowed Liang Bida to achieve his goal."

This sentence made Gu Yufei feel like an electric shock, he was pleasantly surprised, even ecstatic, stimulated by the huge surprise, he sat up with high spirits, slowly stretched out his hand at Gu Tianyou, looked at Tianyou stupidly, and there was no confidence in his eyes that everything before was under control, and his sorrow and desire poured out undisguisedly.

The simplest relationship in the world is between parents and children, if it can be simple, who wants to make family love so complicated. Gu Tianyou's appearance started by Liang Bida, this matter is a stone in Gu Yufei's heart, and now Gu Tianyou takes the initiative to mention this person, which is equivalent to breaking this stone. He was pleasantly surprised to find that this son had not been destroyed by his fourteen years in prison, nor had he been deceived and used by the villain Liang Bida.

This terminally ill man, staring at his son in front of him with tears in his eyes, completely devoid of his previous suspicion and disgust, only deep expectations and remorse: "Child, I am your father, my father can't stand you all these years, now I don't ask for your understanding, I just want to hear you call me." ”

Gu Tianyou hesitated there for a long time before he took a step forward and grabbed Gu Yufei's thin hand. The icy temperature and unstoppable tremor were transmitted through this hand, and Gu Tianyou's heart was as cold as Gu Tianyou, and he couldn't help but shiver. It occurred to me that this man was my father, who was terminally ill and was about to die.

The two hands were clasped together, conveying each other's temperature, and after a long silence, Gu Tianyou still didn't call out his father after all.

"I'm glad that no matter what choice you make, it's comforting to see you like this before you die." Gu Yufei felt the temperature of Tianyou's palm, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his voice became slow and weak, but it seemed to be satisfied, at this moment, he had opened his heart, and the father and son nature that had been deliberately suppressed by reason before was fully revealed. muttered as if whispering: "You are my son, whether you accept it or not, you are my Gu Yufei's species." ”

He looked a little confused, almost stunned, and chattered: "You don't have to recognize me as a father, that is really unfair to you, but I have already recognized you as my Gu Yufei's son, so I have to think about how to arrange you again, I can't just take you back to Wolongtang, you are right, just take you back like this, Su Xiazhu They will not accept you, they can't do anything to you if I live, if I die, they will definitely try their best to destroy you." ”

People do not live for a hundred years, and they often have a thousand years of worries.

Gu Yufei knew that time was short, and he was already hopeless about what would happen after his death, but he didn't expect that the son that the enemy family brought back to him was beyond imagination. For a while, there was only one thought left in his mind, that is, he must arrange the future of Tianyou. He was in a messy mood and chattering, one moment saying that he would send Tianyou abroad, and the other time he said that he would arrange for Tianyou to go to the capital to study, no matter which idea was not perfect, it satisfied him.

At this moment, Gu Yufei is just a father who is in a difficult situation, and he no longer has the heroic temperament that has been precipitated by the ups and downs of the business sea for decades.

Rational cognition can make the world circulate smoothly, and emotional inspiration is the driving force that pushes the world forward.

At this moment, Gu Yufei's undisguised true feelings made it difficult for Gu Tianyou to remain rational and calm. Although there are 10,000 voices in my heart reminding me, don't be emotional. The words blurted out became: "Don't bother, I'll go back to Wolongtang with you!" Then there is no doubt: "This is my own choice, I can go if I want, I will leave when I want to go, my life is up to me!" ”

Gu Yufei was ecstatic, holding Tianyou's hand, how many words came to his lips but he couldn't say it.

Gu Tianyou was slightly emotional: "Father and son, you plan for me so much, I should always do something for you, and I will accompany you to the last journey of your life." ”
