Chapter 386: The Tao Family's Old Things
The past is like the wind, slowly blowing out the things that are buried in each other's hearts.
At that time, Tao Xuyang was ten years old and Tao Ziran was eight years old, and they should have lived a happy childhood, but they were facing the grief of their mother's imminent death.
They stayed by her mother's side day and night, knowing that her life would end abruptly at some point, but they did not cry or make a fuss, and took care of her as before.
"Xuyang, Ziran, you are not children without a father."
Before his mother died, Tao Xuyang and Tao Ziran knew the biggest secret of their lives.
For as long as the two of them can remember, their mother was the only one who took care of them, and whenever they asked where their father was, the mother always smiled lovingly and said that their father had gone far away, and the siblings tacitly assumed that their father had gone out to work to support the family.
Later, in the middle of the night, Tao Xuyang woke up to find his mother hiding in the room, crying over a photo, he rushed in and asked a few times, but his mother did not tell him.
At first, Tao Xuyang thought that his mother would be sad because he missed his father too much, but when he became more and more sensible, he found that things were not simple.
Once, he couldn't help but ask his mother where his father had gone, if he had contact information, and he wanted to talk to him.
However, his mother did not answer the question immediately, but only coaxed him to say that his father was busy and did not have time to answer the phone.
Tao Xuyang didn't believe it, he hoped to have a phone call with his father no matter what, and only in this way could he be sure that he really had a father.
Under his repeated pleading, his mother hid her face and cried, and only said to him for a long time: "Xuyang, you don't have a father anymore." ”
At that time, Tao Xuyang understood that this sentence meant that his father had died, so this answer was also sad for him, but it also aroused his desire to protect his mother and sister, and since that day, he has never asked any questions about his father.
It wasn't until two years later that his mother became seriously ill that he learned that the so-called absence of a father was just a white lie.
"You have a father, but your father has a reason to leave us, and you must believe that he will come back one day." As she spoke, their mother trembled and took out a photo from under the pillow, "This is the man who is your father, his surname is Gu, his name is Gu Tianyang, if he comes back one day, you must remember to tell him that you are all his children." ”
With that, their mother fell into a deep sleep, and did not tell them anything else about their father.
With the pain of losing his mother, Tao Xuyang and Tao Ziran relied on each other, because of their mother's dying words, they have always believed that they can reunite with their father one day in the future.
Until one day, their grandfather found them and told them the truth about their father's departure.
At that time, Tao Xuyang knew that the so-called "father has a last resort" in his mother's mouth was actually in order to maintain Gu Tianyang's image in their hearts, in fact, the reason why Gu Tianyang left their mother and son was because he already had a family in China, and he had no intention of coming back from the day he left.
Grandpa also said that his mother has always loved Gu Tianyang deeply, even if he knows that he has a family, he is still willing to live with him, in the face of the opposition of the family, his mother resolutely cut off all relations with the family, until Gu Tianyang left, she also supported the burden of raising two children alone.
"Your mother, even though she knows that she has been abandoned, still loves that man in her heart."
Grandpa groaned, his tone hidden anger, helplessness and pity.
Tao Xuyang, who learned everything, was completely enlightened, and at the same time was heartbroken, he had always imagined that his father was a great and responsible man under the influence of his mother, but the facts told him that Gu Tianyang was a heinous bastard.
Whenever he recalled his mother's crying in the middle of the night and the hardships of life, he really wanted to find out Gu Tianyang and split it into several pieces to relieve his hatred.
Later, because his grandfather was unable to raise them, he gave them to his most trusted friend to raise them on his behalf, and became Tao Xuyang and Tao Ziran's later adoptive father and adoptive mother.
Their adoptive father and adoptive mother were originally the Dink family, but when they wanted to have a child later, they found that they could no longer conceive normally, and they were very happy when they heard that Tao Xuyang and Tao Ziran were going to be given to them to raise, and even prepared the room before they arrived.
When Tao Xuyang and Tao Ziran were sent to their adoptive father's and mother's house, they learned that they had just adopted a three-year-old child named Xiaoxiao.
The adoptive father and adoptive mother were very good to all three of them, giving them a good living environment and education until Tao Xuyang was eighteen years old.
That year, because of an accident, his adoptive father and adoptive mother died one after another, and before leaving, he instructed Tao Xuyang to hope that he could take good care of his two younger sisters.
Later, Tao Xuyang took care of his two younger sisters while working and studying, until he was twenty-two years old, when he started a business with the investment of a businessman, and now he has become the owner of a large group.
In addition to work and life, since he was twelve years old, Tao Xuyang began to use various ways to find out Gu Tianyang's whereabouts, he wanted to find out this man, and then take him to his mother's grave to confess. Sister Literature Network
It took him fourteen years to really find out the news of Gu Tianyang, but Gu Tianyang was already dead at that time.
Tao Xuyang, who learned the news, did not feel any joy, on the contrary, he couldn't sleep several times at night, and the resentment suppressed in his heart could not be dissipated for a long time.
Tao Xuyang's hatred for Gu Tianyang has been in his bones, so even if Gu Tianyang dies, he can't forgive him for abandoning their family, so Tao Xuyang looked for someone to inquire about Gu Tianyang's family again and learned that he also had a son named Gu Wenxiu.
Four years have passed, when the development of Dow Group is booming and the branch has been opened in China, Tao Xuyang made a decision - to return to China with his two younger sisters.
Therefore, he came back and returned to China with the secrets he had hidden in his heart for twenty years, with only one purpose, to destroy everything in the Gu family, including the son left by Gu Tianyang.
He wants to avenge his mother's love and hatred, and his family's pain and suffering!
"Brother, I know that you have always wanted to teach the Gu family a lesson over the years, but you can't become a victim of the two of us, although she is not our own sister, but since she was a child, haven't we already treated her as a real sister? If one day, she knows that we are hiding such a big secret from her, have you ever thought about the consequences? She likes Li Chaozong so much, we ......."
"She likes Li Chaozong the best!" Tao Xuyang interrupted Tao Ziran's words sharply, his expression was cold, "Since she likes Li Chaozong very much, we agree to let her pursue what she likes, and if she has an idea, it will be better to help." ”
"What do you mean......" Tao Ziran felt faintly uneasy, and after thinking about it, he only had one understanding of this sentence, "You mean that on the surface, it seems that you are helping to come up with ideas to encourage her to pursue Li Chaozong, but in fact, ......."
Tao Ziran paused, and the rest of the words seemed to be stuck in his throat and couldn't get out.
Until now, she didn't want to believe that Tao Xuyang had really made up her mind to do this, and she was still using her sister.
"Yes." Tao Xuyang replied without thinking: "We really need to help do something, as long as we help her to pursue Li Chaozong, it is enough to unconsciously let her help do what we want." ”
"Brother, is there no other way?" Tao Ziran tugged on Tao Xuyang's arm, "I don't know my life experience until now, no matter from any point of view, we shouldn't use her like this, she likes Li Chaozong so much, how can she accept that she has become an indirect murderer." ”
"I understand, I understand!" Tao Xuyang roared in a deep voice, "So we have to be very careful in this matter, don't let her have any suspicions, and help us complete the task smoothly." ”
"And in the end?" Tao Ziran asked, with some distress in his eyes.
"When did you become so worried?" Tao Xuyang reproached: "Have you forgotten how your mother spent her life?" Have you forgotten who caused us to have such a rough time in the past ten years? It's that bad guy, and their family, what you have to think about now is not what the two of us will think of the young, but how we can quickly take back what belongs to us! ”
Tao Ziran was silent, mourning alone with his eyes down.
Tao Xuyang took a breath, hugged her and whispered softly: "Ziran, I know that this is unfair to Xiaoxiao, but now that things have happened after all, even if we don't choose this step, won't the final result make Xiaoxiao sad and sad?" This is fate, it is destined by God, and there is no way to change it, just like we are destined to be abandoned, and finally choose to use this way to fight against fate, understand? ”
"Understood." Tao Ziran responded lightly, although she had agreed with these words in her heart, her mood was still very low.
It is said that "all roads lead to Rome", but if the result is a tragedy, does it still make sense to choose which one?
Tao Ziran asked himself, but he couldn't get an answer after all.
"I see you're tired too, go and rest, I'll go talk to you."
Tao Xuyang touched Tao Ziran's head dotingly, and then sent him back to the room.
When parting, Tao Ziran took his hand and asked lightly, "Brother, if I fell in love with Li Chaozong today, would you do the same?" ”
Tao Xuyang smiled knowingly, held her sign and said seriously: "If there were 'ifs' in this world, we wouldn't be here today." ”
With that, he turned and walked in the direction of the other room.
Tao Ziran looked at his departing back, and his eyes moistened.
"Go down."
"Young master, the second miss has instructed us to take good care of the third miss."
"No need, go down and rest."
