The first time Gu Qiusha met Shen Ming was in the late autumn of 1993, and there was one thing she never told Shen Ming - that day was the day she broke up with her ex-boyfriend.

The man was her college classmate, tall and handsome, with a prominent family background, and he began to talk about marriage just after graduating from college. However, Gu Qiusha has a secret that has been buried in her heart and dare not say it, but sooner or later this matter will be known by the other party - unless she never gets married.

"There is one thing that I have never dared to say, hoping not to dislike me because of this - in my sophomore year of high school, I once went to the hospital with a stomachache, and invited the best gynecologist to check it, and finally diagnosed it with congenital infertility, which means that no matter how much treatment is used, it is impossible to have a child. But I'm still a normal woman, and I won't let this affect my married life, and I can adopt in the future. ”

Before he finished speaking, the other party's face became gloomy and he bluntly proposed to break up. There are many girls who want to marry him, and there is no shortage of famous ladies, why marry a woman who is infertile? As for the idea of adopting a child and the like, it's just a dream.

Gu Qiusha's first love ended, she grabbed her boyfriend's shoulder and cried, and finally watched his back walking away.

That afternoon, she was dejected and took the bus home, so her wallet was stolen, and it happened that Shen Ming came forward, and he was slightly injured. When she looked at this man gratefully, at his almost clear eyes, at his young and clean face, and at the shyness and hesitation between his words, it was like taking the wrong medicine in an instant, and she couldn't help but like him.

Shen Ming is a Chinese teacher at Nanming High School, a famous school, and a highly talented student who graduated from Peking University. She often went to him as the editor of the publishing house's textbooks to discuss some minor mistakes in the Chinese textbooks. I had never heard him mention his parents, and he lived in the school dormitory all year round, which also caused Gu Qiusha's confusion. Just as she was about to ask someone to inquire in private, Shen Ming took the initiative to tell her tragic life story - when he was seven years old, his father poisoned his mother and was subsequently sentenced to death. He was raised by his grandmother, and his family did not have a house, so he has lived in the school since he was in high school.

Gu Qiusha understood that with his education and quality, he could only be a high school Chinese teacher, just because of his humble background. Her father is a former head of the Education Bureau and is now the president of the university, and their family backgrounds are very different.

So, before letting Shen know the identity of her future father-in-law, she first told the secrets of her body......

"Although, I have always been looking forward to marrying the woman I like and having a lovely child. But is it true that marriage is all about having children? If I really want to marry the other party, I should tolerate all her flaws - not to mention that not being able to have children is just a physical problem, and is it related to a person's moral character and quality? It's like some people are taller, some people are shorter, aren't they all destined by God? It's a big deal to go to a welfare home to adopt a child and come back! ”

In the last sentence, Shen Ming said the thoughts that she did not dare to say in her heart.

The next day, Gu Qiusha decisively took her boyfriend home, and affirmed that she found out that her girlfriend's father was actually Principal Gu, who was often mentioned in the newspaper. His father had an unexpectedly good impression of him, and the two had a pleasant conversation, especially when it came to the issue of educational reform, and affirmed that his bold ideas were recognized.

It was the spring of 1994.

Soon after, in the summer, his father seconded Shen Ming from Nanming High School to his side and worked as a temporary secretary for three months. During this time, an incident happened that made him value this future son-in-law even more.

The following year, Gu Qiusha and Shen Ming held a grand engagement ceremony. At the behest of his father, the leaders of the Municipal Education Bureau talked to Shen Ming, and soon issued a document to transfer him from Nanming High School to the Youth League Committee of the Education Bureau. His future has been decided, and in two years he will become the secretary of the Youth League Committee of the city's education system, which is the fastest way for a person to soar.

In 1995, in the last few days of May, she found that Shen Ming was frowning, and there was always a feeling of absent-mindedness in the process of accepting the renovation of the new house. Gu Qiusha asked him what happened? He said with a smile on his face, maybe it's just that the college entrance examination is approaching and the pressure is too great.

She went to Nanming Senior High School to inquire, only to hear that Shen Ming had a teacher-student relationship with a senior high school girl, and some people rumored that he was an illegitimate child - I can't believe that there will be such a thing, she is about to marry this man, and she has already set up an engagement banquet, and even the wedding invitation has been sent out, how should she face it? The college entrance examination is getting closer and closer, and with the statement of the graduating class, students have to make up classes almost every night, and they can't accompany their fiancées even on weekends, which makes Gu Qiusha even more worried.

The last time they saw each other was on the evening of June 3, when they came out of their newly renovated house and went to the cinema to see Arnold Schwarzenegger's "True Lies."

After watching the movie, Gu Qiusha asked him, "What lie did you tell me?" ”

Shen Ming looked into his fiancée's eyes and was silent for a long time before saying, "Someone wants to kill me." ”

He admits that he is indeed an illegitimate child, and that the man who was killed by his mother when he was seven years old is actually just a stepfather. When he was ten years old, he changed his surname to Shen in his household register, which was his biological father's surname. From birth, he was burdened with shame and original sin, and could only hide it from his fiancée and father-in-law.

As for having an affair with a female student, he denied it and swore by God.

Gu Qiusha believed his words on the surface, but when she went home, she couldn't sleep all night - she felt unfair from the bottom of her heart, she was honest with this man, she was kind to him from the bottom of her heart, and told secrets that no one could know...... Shen Ming deceived her and concealed the truth that he was an illegitimate child, and he didn't say it until Nanming Middle School spread it, can it be regarded as an honest confession?

In this case, he said that he was innocent with the female student, must be the truth?

"Don't trust anyone, not even the people you love the most."

This is a sentence that the father whispered in his ear before their engagement ceremony, which can be regarded as the last advice to his daughter before marriage.

It's been less than three months, and it's actually a prophecy?

This night, Gu Qiusha almost tore the sheets.

Two days later, Shen Ming's high school classmate Lu Zhongyue found her and said that her fiancé had had an accident at school, and that a high school junior girl named Liu Man had died, reportedly murdered with poison. Shen's situation is very dangerous, someone saw him alone with this girl last night, and the Public Security Bureau is applying for a search warrant, can you help through Principal Gu's connections?

Gu Qiusha knocked over the teacup on the spot and shed tears, her first reaction was not to rescue her fiancé, but to keep imagining the most dangerous possibility - is he a murderer? He killed a schoolgirl who had an affair? Because I can't let this secret be known? Must be cleaned up before getting married?

That night, she received a call from Shin Ming, but she coldly refused to meet him or remind him to check his room.

Tossing and turning again, her mind kept recalling, from her first chance encounter with Shin, to her first dinner, her first date, her first hug, her first kiss, her first ......

Every detail, like a movie frame, seemed to be in front of his eyes, and his face became more and more blurred—his nose became hooked, and his eyes were sometimes silent and sometimes angry.

Does he really love me?

Because my father is close to me, right? Does he have any other women? That junior high school girl? Or is it someone else?

And me? And why do you like him? Win back my wallet? His courage to fight thieves? Fighting like a man? His hidden talents? Poems that have been written to me every week for two years? The occasional calmness and ambition in his eyes?

Or am I just looking for a husband who is willing to tolerate my shortcomings, who is willing to give up a child for my sake, or to adopt someone else's child?

Do I really love him?

The next day, Gu Qiusha heard that Shen Ming had been arrested and taken to the public security bureau overnight, and the police found murder poison in his bedroom.

She didn't have the heart to go to work, and her father was angry when she got home. Principal Gu took out a letter and threw it to his daughter, but found that it was the handwriting of the statement, and the recipient was named He Nian, who was his classmate and friend at Peking University, and stayed in Beijing to work after graduation.

Shen said in the letter that he was about to get married, so he would step into a career in office. What frightened Gu Qiusha was that she said that the first time she met her, she had been following her for a long time, and had investigated her family background in advance, until she stared at her on the bus that day, and then she found that a thief was touching her wallet, otherwise how could so many people in the car be seen by him? He quickly captured the heart of the principal's daughter, and then how to calculate the father and daughter of the Gu family, so that Principal Gu valued him as a talent, and seconded him to his side as a secretary.

Fortunately, Shen Cheng did not reveal the secret that she could not conceive and give birth in the letter.

However, what made Principal Gu most angry was that the end of the letter read: "As for my father-in-law, he is a real sanctimonious hypocrite, if I am a liar, then he is a liar among liars." Sooner or later, his despicable secret will finally be revealed. ”

The father locked the letter in the safe and took care of his daughter repeatedly, and the matter must not be leaked.

Half a year ago, he wrote the secret in the letter, as evidenced by the postmark date at that time. Recently, He Nian made a serious mistake in Beijing and was sent back to the city's Education Bureau, and by mistake entered the Youth League Committee, only to learn that Shen Ming had been designated as the next secretary of the Youth League Committee - people are always jealous, especially college classmates. When he was assigned to graduate, he said that he had no backstage and could only be a high school Chinese teacher, and he had a good position in Beijing for the New Year, but now he wants to be a subordinate of Shenming, how can he swallow this breath?

In fact, Gu Qiusha has doubts about the authenticity of this letter, the so-called "wall down and everyone pushes", this is a sentence that her father often said to her.

Now it doesn't matter whether the faith is true or not, because the wall has collapsed and it is impossible to build it again.

She changed the lock cylinder of the newly renovated wedding room, and her father withdrew from the hotel for the wedding banquet and took back all the wedding invitations.

During the days when Shen Ming was in the detention center, Officer Huang Hai came to Gu Qiusha twice to learn about his various situations. And she also told the truth, including affirming her recent abnormal behavior.

Eventually, Officer Huang Hai asked, "Miss Gu, do you believe your fiancé?" ”

"First of all, I don't trust anyone. Secondly, he is not my fiancé anymore. ”

She replied unusually calmly, regardless of whether this would affect the judgment of the police, and Officer Huang Hai's face sank, and he left without saying anything.

Within a week, Gu Qiusha's father used various connections to force the Education Bureau to make a quick decision to remove Shen Yuan, who was still in prison, from the teaching ranks and expel him from the party.

On June 16, Lu Zhongyue visited Gu's home and told Gu Qiusha and her father that they had been acquitted by the police and hoped to help him. This news made Principal Gu quite nervous, because once the decision was issued, there was no possibility of retracting or changing it. Shen must have known it, and maybe he will come to the door tonight.

So, Principal Gu resigned from all official duties, took his daughter overnight, and the driver took them to the airport and flew to Dali and Lijiang in Yunnan for a seven-day tour.

On June 19, 1995, at ten o'clock in the evening, when Gu Qiusha and her father were admiring the moonlight between Cangshan and Erhai Lake, they affirmed that they were dying underground in the lightning and thunder.

Who killed the statement?

For nine years, this question has always haunted the bottom of my mind, and even if I have married someone else's wife a long time ago, I can't forget it after all.

Suddenly, Gu Qiusha wanted to see the boy named Si Wang again.
