Chapter 719: True and False Daughter (5)
Gu Yao woke up again, and it was in the car.
The luxurious and low-key interior is incompatible with her thin and shabby school uniform.
She was in the back seat, and in the front seat, in addition to the driver, there was a middle-aged man.
He was whispering on the phone, as if he was reporting to someone.
"I'm fine, I've checked it...... He said that he fainted because he was malnourished. ”
"Yes, yes, I'll take care of it."
"The family...... There is no need to clean up the aftermath, the police have gone to see it, and they all died in the fire. ”
"It's also the child's life...... The fire was because she set the house on fire at home, and she escaped, but the family didn't..."
"Okay, I understand..... Well, I can get there tonight, and I'm almost in the customs. ”
Hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man sighed heavily.
I turned around to check the situation of the girl in the back of the car, but met a pair of deep and dark eyes.
"Are you awake ......?"
He realized that the kid had probably heard the call.
He smiled a little embarrassedly for a while, and said, "Do you want to eat something and drink some water?" ”
The girl propped up the back of the car seat and sat up slowly, without saying a word.
On the pale face, there was not a trace of blood in sight.
Messy hair, a tip of the forehead and nose, and black soot..... It looks a little embarrassed.
But even so, the girl's excellent appearance perfectly inherited the advantages of the Gu family.
Thinking that she might not even know what was going on, she might be wary of the two strangers in the car who had never met before.
The middle-aged man tried to slow down and said, "My surname is Zhang ...... It's your father's secretary, you can call me Uncle Zhang. ”
The girl still didn't speak, just frowned slightly, and there was no surprise or panic in her eyes.
"It seems that the young lady already knew in advance?"
Zhang Yunhua smiled, being able to avoid a large number of identity statements and gain trust is always much easier.
"Miss can sleep a little longer, and when we wake up, we'll be home."
He is Gu Yuan's secretary, and he has dealt with countless people of all kinds, so he naturally knows how to appease a girl who is not yet an adult.
A child who has lived in poverty and scolding for a long time should be more able to feel the touching of the word 'home'.
However, the girl in the back seat of the car only turned her face slightly, as if she was looking at him seriously.
After a moment of silence, she spoke her first words:
"Gu family, are you really welcome me home?"
is very calm, without the expectations that Zhang Yunhua imagined, or the joy of knowing that she is the daughter of a rich family, but with a hint of coldness.
Still, he wasn't surprised.
Growing up in such an environment, and now I have found her, this child is probably resentful in his heart.
"Of course, whether it is Mrs. Gu, or Young Master Gu, and Miss Gu...... They all can't wait to meet you. ”
The girl smiled reservedly and coldly, and said no more.
She turned her head and looked out the window.
Outside, it's raining.....
Gu Yao was vague, and he could see his blurred face from the reflection of the glass.
"Knowing that Miss Gu was going home, Miss Gu and Mrs. Gu immediately arranged the room for Miss personally."
"Miss Gu grew up under my watch, she has a good temper and personality, and she is the same age as Miss, so you will definitely be able to get along."
"Mademoiselle has suffered all these years...... When you return to the Gu family, everyone will compensate you well. ”
Zhang Yunhua's tone was softened, and seeing her so silent, he couldn't help but say a few more words.
The neon lights of the city flashed by, and the face of the girl became more and more visible, fiasco and vulnerable.
She didn't seem to need such reassurance.
Zhang Yunhua saw that she had no intention of talking, so he withdrew his gaze and turned to sit down.
Such a thing does take time to digest.
For him, bringing people back safely is considered to have completed the task arranged by Mr. Gu.
The rest, it has nothing to do with him.
