Chapter 224: Results
The driver's eyes were still worried, and he said, "If you are not feeling well, we will go directly to the hospital." ”
Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile and said, "It's really okay, no need." ”
As soon as her words fell, the driver's mobile phone rang in front of her. He took out his phone, looked at it, and then picked it up.
The person on the other end of the phone was probably Chen Xiao, and the expression on his face was respectful. I don't know what Chen Xiao said on the other end of the phone, he replied respectfully: "We are on the way back." ”
After that, he didn't speak again, and didn't say hello respectfully until he hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, he didn't drive the car any further, but slowly stopped against the side of the road.
Gu Shi'an intuitively felt that something was wrong, and without waiting for his car to stop, he asked, "What do you Mr. Chen have to do from time to time?" ”
The driver's face became a little solemn, looked back at Gu Shi'an, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Miss Gu, you have to be mentally prepared." He paused, then said, "The old lady knows. ”
As soon as he said this, Gu Shi'an's face turned pale. The driver continued: "Mr. Chen said, the old lady should be waiting for you now." ”
Gu Shi'an hadn't fully digested the news, and muttered, "How could grandma know? ”
The driver's face was still solemn, and he said, "It should be your cousin and cousin who are exposed." He paused at this point, and then said in a low voice: "Mr. Chen means that since the old lady knows, don't hide it anymore." Paper will never contain fire, and she will know sooner or later. ”
Moreover, the old lady is not old and confused. Gu Su and Gu Qian should have all confessed, and it is not easy to cover up the past again.
Gu Shi'an never thought that he would be able to hide it from the old lady forever, but he also didn't expect that she would know so quickly. My mind was so confused that I didn't know what to do.
The driver had been parked all the time, probably waiting for her to sort it out a little. Gu Shi'an can figure it out for a while. But the old lady couldn't be allowed to wait there all the time, and said in a low voice, "Let's drive." ”
The driver looked at her worriedly, and said yes to start the car. He continued: "Mr. Chen is already on the road in the past. ”
When she said this, she was telling Gu Shi'an that she was not alone.
Gu Shi'an snorted, leaned against the car window with his eyes closed and did not speak.
The car drove fast all the way, and the old lady was really waiting when she arrived. The neighborhood is eye-catching, and they are in the café across the street from the neighborhood.
The car had just stopped, and the driver who was waiting for the side greeted him and said politely: "Miss Shi'an, the old lady has been waiting for you." ”
Gu Shi'an wanted to squeeze out a smile, but he couldn't. Nodding, he followed the driver to the café opposite.
Gu Shi'an originally thought that Gu Su and Gu Qian's brothers and sisters would also be there. But no, when I opened the door of the private room, the old lady was the only one there.
The wrinkles on the old lady's face deepened, and her face was filled with irrepressible grief. The white-haired man sending the black-haired man was enough to make her heartbroken. Now I know that the death of my youngest son was not an accident. It is not the death they preach, but the cannibalism between brothers. How does this not make her sad.
Seeing Gu Shi'an, she was speechless. Just beckoned her over.
Gu Shi'an arrived in front of him, and as soon as he called grandma, she hugged her tightly. Tears that had long since dried fell silently. Said sadly: "Shi'an, grandma is sorry, sorry for you." ”
Although the youngest son has been dead for so many years, she has never really faced his death. Always deceiving herself and telling herself that he just wasn't by her side.
If she doesn't deceive herself, she will face it early. I can't notice it at all.
Gu Shi'an's throat was choked, he shook his head, and said, "Grandma, it has nothing to do with you." ”
The old lady shook her head, trying to say something, her lips moved, and finally she didn't say anything. just hugged Gu Shi'an tightly.
Gu Shi'an knew that it was a good thing that the old lady could cry. If you can't cry and suppress it, you will only get sick from it.
Her eyes were terribly red, but she eventually held back her tears. Gently patted the old lady and handed the old lady a tissue.
The old lady was decisive when she was young, and she didn't cry for long, and quickly wiped away her tears. didn't go to see Gu Shi'an, and said, "Shi'an, grandma must give you and your father justice." ”
She let go of Gu Shi'an as she spoke. Before Gu Shi'an could speak, there was a knock on the door of the private room.
The old lady said a word to come in, and the door was quickly opened. Standing outside was the old lady's driver, who hung his head respectfully and said, "Old lady, everyone is here." ”
The old lady said yes. Walking out on crutches.
Gu Shi'an was about to follow immediately, but who knew that the old lady said, "You are here, don't go over." After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Gu Shi'an to speak, and said with a bit of sternness: "Listen to grandma." ”
She rarely spoke to Gu Shi'an in such a stern tone, and Gu Shi'an stood still and didn't dare to move for a while.
The old lady went out quickly on crutches. She ordered the driver at the door, and Gu Shi'an immediately wanted to follow out, but the driver stopped her and said, "Miss Shi'an, the old lady asked you to have a good rest here." ”
This is not to let Gu Shi'an participate.
He sighed softly when he said this, and said, "The old lady is very sad. There's always a reason for not letting you go. You have to go over at this time, and if you want to protect the old lady, she will only be more sad. ”
Yes, the old lady originally felt sorry for her, so she wanted to deal with things independently. If she disobeyed and followed, it would indeed only make the old lady feel more guilty.
Gu Shi'an's footsteps stopped. She was worried about the other side, and said in a low voice, "I know." I'm just going to stay here and not wander around, so please go and watch the old lady. If anything......"
The driver naturally understood what she meant, answered yes, greeted her politely, stretched out his hand and closed the door and left.
Gu Shi'an was restless, and if he wanted to go out, he still restrained himself and didn't go out after all. Walking back and forth in the private room.
After ten or twenty minutes, footsteps suddenly sounded in the hallway. Gu Shi'an thought that the old lady was back, and stepped forward to open the door. It was not the old lady outside the door, but Chen Xiao's driver.
He saw Gu Shi'an politely called Miss Gu and said, "Mr. Chen asked me to come over and tell you, don't worry about the old lady." ”
Gu Shi'an couldn't be worried, and asked, "Are you Mr. Chen here?" ”
The driver said, "Mr. Chen came over just now." But the old lady also didn't let Mr. Chen interfere in dealing with it. Chen's head office still has something to do, so he went back again. Your second uncle has already brought it here, and now they are all in the private room upstairs. You can rest assured, there are so many people here, and the old lady will not be fine. ”
Gu Shi'an didn't expect Chen Xiao to come over and leave again, and she didn't even know at all. couldn't help but feel a little distracted, and then reluctantly squeezed out a smile and thanked the driver.
Gu Shi'an waited for a long time, and in the evening, the old lady's driver came to call her, saying that the old lady was already waiting for her in the car.
Gu Shi'an didn't ask how the upstairs was handled, and hurriedly followed the driver to the parking lot.
The other people's cars in the parking lot had already driven away, leaving only the old lady's car parked alone in the deserted basement.
Gu Shi'an stepped forward quickly to open the car door, originally to call the old lady, but before the words could be spoken, he noticed that the old lady had her eyes closed. She didn't even react when she pulled the car door open.
The driver said in a low voice: "The old lady has long been out of spirit and has fallen asleep." ”
The old lady's health was not very good in the first place, how could she bear it now.
Gu Shi'an didn't speak again, and asked the driver to take a thin blanket for the old lady to cover. Then he held the old lady so that she would not tip over when the car was shaking.
Because the old lady was asleep, the car drove very slowly. It usually takes an hour to drive, but it takes more than two hours to arrive.
The old lady was so tired that she never woke up. It wasn't until the car stopped that she suddenly woke up.
It was already dark outside, and she didn't seem to know where she was. After being stunned for a moment, he said, "Are you home?" ”
The old lady's face was full of tiredness, and her expression was a little dazed.
Gu Shi'an said softly: "It's here." Get off the bus and go to rest. ”
The old lady nodded and got out of the car with Gu Shi'an's support. Although she slept in the car, she was still in poor spirits, and she fell asleep again without even eating.
Gu Shi'an was worried and asked the doctor to come over. After the doctor's examination, he said that the old lady's body was fine, she was too tired, and she would be fine after resting. Gu Shi'an was relieved.
The villa is quiet and quiet. Gu Shi'an didn't have an appetite, and only drank half a bowl of soup for dinner. What the old lady said in the private room, Gu Shi'an didn't know, and the driver didn't know either. I only knew that when I came out of the private room, the old lady let everyone leave. Only she was called.
This night was difficult, Gu Shi'an couldn't let go of the old lady, and didn't dare to go upstairs to sleep. Instead, he will be asleep on the couch.
Chen Xiao didn't greet her at that time, and he didn't call her later. She wanted to call him, but she didn't dial the number.
The night seemed like a century had passed, and the old lady woke up early in the morning. As if nothing had happened, he didn't say anything to Gu Shi'an. The grandfather and grandson had breakfast peacefully.
Gu Shi'an doesn't have to go to work now, and the old lady doesn't urge her to go back. After breakfast, I took her to the study. took out the calligraphy and paintings that the old man had hidden before his death. and kindly told Gu Shi'an what the origin of those calligraphy and paintings is.
The old lady was so calm obviously not right, Gu Shi'an didn't dare to poke it, and listened to the old lady obediently.
After finishing talking about Lao Tzu's calligraphy and paintings, she took out all the things she had collected from Gu Shi'an's father before his death. One by one, he said to Gu Shi'an.
She often flips through these things. Even if it is a small detail, she remembers it well. Completely immersed in the memories, a rare kind smile appeared on his face.
The grandparents stayed in the study for a day, took out the things one by one to wipe the dust, and then put them back one by one.
The old lady has always been in good spirits, and she didn't even take a nap.
In the evening, dinner was eaten. The old lady no longer kept Gu Shi'an now, and asked the driver to send her back.
Gu Shi'an could not rest assured of her and refused to go back. The old lady said gently, "Don't worry about grandma, grandma is fine." Grandma still has to watch us have a good home in Shi'an, and we are willing to leave only when we have children. Let's go back, grandma wants to be quiet. If you're not at ease, just come and see your grandmother in two days. When the time comes, you can live as long as you want. ”
The old lady's tone was resolute, and Gu Shi'an finally squeezed out a smile to respond and got into the car.
The old lady stood at the door, and remained motionless until the car was gone.
When Gu Shi'an went back, it was already close to nine o'clock, and the driver wanted to take her upstairs, but she didn't let her. Just say she's going up on her own. And ask the driver, if there is anything wrong with the old lady, please tell her immediately.
The old lady was too calm. So much so that her heart was very uneasy.
The driver replied, Gu Shi'an watched him leave, and then turned around and walked towards the community.
Winter has arrived, and there are fewer people in the community who come out for a walk. A quiet place. The sound insulation of the windows is not good, and the sound of TV can be faintly heard.
Gu Shi'an was slightly in a trance, stood for a moment, and then went upstairs.
When she arrived at the staircase, she just took out the key, and as soon as she raised her head, she saw Assistant Sun standing in the corridor. Although he was standing upright, he could tell that he should have been here for a while.
Gu Shi'an didn't expect him to wait outside, and was slightly stunned. But Assistant Sun greeted him first and said, "You're back." ”
After he finished speaking, he continued: "Mr. Chen said that you will come back tonight, let me wait for you here." ”
Speaking of Chen Xiaolai, Gu Shi'an's movements paused. With a hum, he took out the key and opened the door.
When the light was turned on, she invited Assistant Sun to sit down and make tea, and then asked, "Is there anything wrong with you Mr. Chen asking you to come over?" ”
Assistant Sun nodded and said, "I'll come and tell you." Today, Mr. Gu has already gone to the police station to turn himself in. ”
He was talking about that Mr. Gu, referring to Gu Chengde.
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then said: "Their family has now set up the old mansion, and the old lady has issued a statement to expel them from the Gu family. Severance. ”
I have to say that the old lady is old. But it was still decisive in killing. A decision was made in a short period of time.
Assistant Sun paused slightly when he said this, and then said, "Although they didn't make trouble when they moved. But you know what kind of people they are. Mr. Chen asked you to pay more attention during this time, and those two may come to you for trouble. ”
The two he said were Gu Su and Gu Qian. It's exactly what they're going to do. Once she fell from heaven to earth, they probably hated her to death by now.
Gu Shi'an nodded, and Assistant Sun continued: "As for the other two. They weren't involved in ......"
Although he didn't finish speaking, Gu Shi'an knew what he meant. Gu Chengping and Gu Chengyun's side are at most just covering up the crime.
And if something happens to both of them, then the Gu family will be a plate of scattered sand.
Gu Shi'an nodded.
Assistant Sun has already said everything he should have said, and he couldn't find anything to say for a while. He was about to stand up and say goodbye, when Gu Shi'an asked, "...... you Mr. Chen?" Still in the company? ”
Assistant Sun's face was a little embarrassed, and he said, "No." Chen always has something to do...... Traveled. ”
These words, combined with his expression, were obviously perfunctory.
He didn't want to stay on this topic, so he stood up and said, "It's not early, Miss Gu, I'll go back first." Call me if you have anything. ”
After he finished speaking, he bowed his head slightly and walked to the door.
Gu Shi'an sent him to the door, and he politely asked her not to send it again, and the figure quickly disappeared into the corridor.
Gu Shi'an stood at the door, and after a while, he returned to the room.
Although Gu Chengde has been duly punished, her heart is still heavy. It almost overwhelmed her.
She sat on the couch for a long time, I don't know how long, before she got up and went to wash. Stand under piping hot water.
The hot water didn't dispel the exhaustion, she was even more tired. She collapsed on the bed without even drying her hair.
She hadn't slept well last night, and she thought she would be able to sleep soon. But she didn't, her eyes were closed painfully, and she still didn't fall asleep.
She got up and poured a glass of water to drink, and stood on the balcony for a long time. Then he went back to the bedroom and collapsed on the bed.
This time she closed her eyes, and she fell into a nightmare. Dreams are disorganized, bloody and chaotic. She looked powerless, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes on the pillow.
When she woke up, the sky outside was already faint, and the chaos in the dream was blurry to her, except for the sadness and powerlessness that were so real.
Dense sweat broke out on her forehead, and she leaned on the head of the bed for a long time before getting up.
She had many nightmares, and she didn't dare to sleep again. I sat in the dimly lit living room until it was dark.
Her father's accident was a blow to the snow, and she was very empty. After going to wash, I didn't know what to do. She stood in a daze for a long time, then changed her clothes and went to the store.
Chang Yan and her are quite heartfelt, she is still on the way, so she called. In fact, she should have made this call yesterday after reading the newspaper. But when I got the phone in my hand, I knew that there must be chaos on her side. So I endured it until today.
After learning that Gu Shi'an was on the way to the store, she pretended to be relaxed and said that she had made her something delicious, and she would be able to eat it later.
When he arrived, Chang Yan had already set up breakfast, which was very rich, and set up a small half table.
Since Gu Chengde had already received the punishment he deserved, she didn't mention it again. Just asked Gu Shi'an what he planned to do in the future.
Gu Shi'an didn't think about these things, and his reaction was a little sluggish, and he reluctantly smiled and said that he hadn't thought about it for the time being.
Chang Yan thought for a moment and said seriously: "Why don't you come to the store?" I'll go to class when I'm done. ”
Business in the store has always been good, and they are usually busy. Gu Shi'an smiled slightly and said yes.
Chang Yan probably saw that she was in a bad mood, and after eating and arranging things, he said, "Let's go, let's go out for a walk." ”
Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment and said, "Where are you going?" ”
In her memory, she and Chang Yin haven't gone out to shop.
Chang Yan tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Let's go to the mall." I was just going to buy a few clothes. ”
She has always been unparticular about what she wears, and rarely buys clothes for herself. Even if you buy it, you just buy it casually and make do with it.
It's rare that she wants to buy clothes, so Gu Shi'an nodded and agreed.
It's not far from the nearby shopping mall, and they were going to take a taxi, but seeing that the road was heavily congested, the two finally chose to walk.
Chang Yan looked like he really came out to shop, and watched all the way. I bought a lot of snacks, and the two of them ate slowly all the way.
Although Gu Shi'an was in good spirits, he was a little absent-minded all the way. When the two of them sat down to rest in the café, she asked, "Ah Yan, do you know about Chen Xiao's company?" ”
She asked about Chen Xiaolai, and Chang Yan was not surprised. She had also heard about Chen Xiao's company, but she didn't know very well. After a deep groan, he said, "I don't know, I'll ask people to inquire." ”
In any case, Chang Yin's news is better than her. She inquired, and all she inquired about was something on the scene. And Chang Yan has a special news channel over there, which is naturally different.
Gu Shi'an said thank you now.
Chang Yan seriously asked her not to be polite, and sat for a while by going to the bathroom to make a phone call.
After she left, Gu Shi'an didn't drink coffee anymore, and watched the people coming and going outside the café in a daze.
Chang Yin came back quickly, but he came back in five minutes. After walking around, she only bought one piece of clothing. Gu Shi'an came back to his senses, stood up with a smile, and said, "Let's go, continue shopping." What else are you going to buy besides clothes? ”
The shop isn't busy at noon, but it's busy at night. I'm good to go back early.
Chang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let's bring some gifts to Xiao Wu and them." I'm not good at picking these, so it's better to see what to buy. ”
Chang Yan, the boss, has always been willing to his employees. The prize money is never less.
Gu Shi'an nodded and said, "Let's go around and take a look." ”
Chang Yan is not good at buying gifts, and she is only a little better than her. I didn't know what gift to buy for a while.
Chang Yan nodded and walked out of the café, she looked up and looked around the corridors on the left and right, and was about to ask Gu Shi'an which way to go. Before the words could be spoken, his eyes fell on the two people who came up the escalator. She couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
She subconsciously wanted to pull Gu Shi'an to the other side, but before she could move, Gu Shi'an followed her line of sight.
