(45) Seeking help and searching for people

Yuhan carried the dark green box left by his mother and returned to the old house. She thought repeatedly along the way, the Lao Xia mentioned in the letter should be Xia Bo, the driver of her grandfather, what happened to their family? Did the mother find them and help them out of their predicament? She had a series of questions in her head, but no one could give her answers.

This became a knot in Lin Yuhan's heart, she hoped to find Xia Bo's family and want to know how they were doing. Come to think of it, only James can help with that.

Maybe it's because Yuhan's mother died before, James has been by her side and delayed a lot of business, and he seems to be very busy recently, Yuhan feels a little sorry in his heart. James' study door was open, and she hesitated to walk over to look inside, where he was looking down at some papers. Yuhan knocked lightly on the door, and James looked up at her, "Huh?" ”

Yuhan paced to his desk, and said in a hurry, "Very busy? ”

"Well, didn't you see that?" James saw that she had something to say, "What's the matter?" Go ahead. ”

"I ...... That is, I know you have great powers, and I want to ask you for a favor. ”

"You don't have to put a high hat on me, just tell me anything." James put on a straight face and pretended to be serious, but he seemed to be in a good mood.

"I'd like to inquire about individuals."

James put down the document in his hand and listened carefully to Yuhan's continuation.

"It was the family who used to live with us. I want to know where they are now, if they are safe, if they are living well. ”

James frowned consistently, "What man?" What for? What is your name? ”

He always frowned, and now that Yuhan understands him, this is not to show that he is angry, but his habitual expression when he puts down his social smile and relaxes.

"The father's surname is Xia, and the mother's ...... We call her Su's mother, and it should be surnamed Su. ”

James listened quietly, his brow tightening even tighter.

Yuhan didn't notice that James's eyes had turned cold, and continued, "Their son is probably ...... It should be twenty-seven or eighteen years old now, called Xia Mu. ”

James felt his head explode with a thud...... He held back to keep his emotions from spiraling out of control.

"More than ten years ago, Xia Bo was my grandfather's driver, and I followed my grandfather for many years, and Su's mother helped with chores at my house. Later, my grandfather passed away, and I didn't know why the family moved out, and I never saw them again. ”

Seeing James' wandering eyes staring elsewhere without speaking, Yuhan explained with some embarrassment: "That's all I know, there is too little information, it's hard to find, right?" ”

After a long time, James calmed down a little, he lowered his gaze to avoid Yuhan's eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you looking for them for?" ”

Yuhan thought about it and decided to explain to him clearly, there was no need to hide anything between them.

"I went home today to sort through my mother's belongings and stumbled upon a letter." As she spoke, she pulled the envelope out of her side pocket and handed it to James. "Looking at what this letter says, I'm afraid that my father has done something sorry for this family, I want to know their situation, see what can help them, and it can be regarded as a wish for my mother."

James looked at the envelope and thought it was so hot that he didn't dare to take it. Trying to stabilize his emotions, he reached for the envelope and pulled out the letter with a trembling hand. Sure enough, it was after their mother and son were kicked out of the Hou house, and their mother dictated that he wrote a letter of help to Miss Hou, that is, Lin Yuhan's mother.

Yuhan continued: "The content of the letter is that they asked for their mother's help, and I don't know what happened to them and whether they survived the crisis. My mother kept the letter in her possession, and I suspect that she may have searched for their whereabouts as well. I still remember the day they left, it was raining very heavily outside, and their mother and son were drenched in the rain at the gate...... I was scared, but I couldn't help......"

Yuhan's words brought James back to that rainy day......

The rain hits the face and makes people can't open their eyes, and the young go to pick up the luggage that was thrown in the rain. Mother grabbed Lin Daxun and pleaded, "Aunt Lin, you can't just drive us away, Lao Xia hasn't been rescued yet, you can't talk and don't count!" ”

"I've done my duty, don't be entangled anymore!" Lin Daxun shook off his mother and slammed the iron door shut.

The mother fell in the rain, the young man didn't bother to pack his luggage and hurried to help his mother, but his mother supported and grabbed the railing on the iron gate and didn't let go, "Aunt Lin! Aunt Lin! If the old man is still alive, he won't do this to us, he will definitely save Lao Xia! Aunt Lin! All she answered was the sound of the rain.

The boy was at a loss for what to do in the face of the closed iron gate, and he had lived in this house for as long as he could remember, and now he had been kicked out, and he did not know where to go. A yellow umbrella appeared in the iron gate, "Brother Xia Mu, Brother Xia Mu...... Here you go. A childish voice called him, and the girl took an apple in her hand and handed it out of the railing. He reached out and took the apple, and handed out the yellow umbrella, and the girl ran back in the rain.

Now, he remembered vividly how red the apple was, and how the girl had grown into a slim woman standing in front of him.

Yuhan saw that he looked at him fixedly and didn't speak, thinking that he was embarrassing him, and then said: "I know this is very difficult, there is too little information." But I just want to know how they're doing now, and how they're doing. ”

James struggled to control his emotions on the verge of collapse, suppressing the words that squeezed out from between his teeth, "Okay, I'll inquire." Then he lowered his head and waved his hand to signal her to go out.

"You look tired?" Yuhan asked softly.

James didn't look up.

"That'...... You go to rest. With that, she exited the study.
