Chapter 249: Why Do You Still Call Me Uncle Han?
"Uncle Han."
Cheng Zili stood up weakly.
Nie Jiuhan walked two quick steps to Cheng Zili's side, pressed her shoulder, and asked her to sit back in the chair and not stand up.
"You're not feeling well right now, so sit still. You...... Why do you still call me Uncle Han? ”
Cheng Zili was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Nie Jiuhan meant.
"Dad...... Father. ”
"Hey!"
Nie Jiuhan suddenly had a feeling of old tears, Nie Jiuhan, who has always shown himself as a tough guy, never thought that he would have such a day.
The big hand pinched Cheng Zili's shoulder, but he didn't dare to use force, for fear that he would hurt her if he couldn't control the force well.
"I didn't expect that! Unexpected! ”
Cheng Zili looked up at him, but Nie Jiuhan turned his face away and secretly wiped the tears on his face.
"I didn't expect that this world is so small, and fate is really a wonderful thing. Even though you've escaped so far, I still met you in the United States. You saved Yichen back then, and the relationship with his father and son, now Yichen has become my husband, and we have long been a family. ”
When Cheng Zili said this, Nie Jiuhan was also full of emotion.
"Back then, your mother and I ...... I didn't expect her to conceive my child, nor did I expect her to give birth to you. How can she, a single woman, bring a child? If I knew that she would never leave her if she had a child, Xiaoli, please don't blame your mother, okay? It's all my fault that she had to leave you behind. She must have been very bitter back then, and she had to marry Ling Tianyu as a last resort, but I hated her for so many years, and I knew that I had misunderstood her recently. She's such a good woman, I hated her for so many years! ”
Cheng Zili has thought about countless times when she met her biological parents.
Maybe they will hug each other and cry bitterly, maybe they accuse each other and complain about each other, or maybe they think Lu Yichen said, who knows if Nie Jiuhan's hatred for Lin Xuelan will be transferred to Cheng Zili's body, so that even she will deal with it together.
But Cheng Zili never thought that this would be the case when their father and daughter met each other. Just sit together calmly and chat.
Time passed quickly, but there was still no trace of Lin Xuelan. Cheng Zili became the last person to talk to Lin Xuelan, but the phone was unexpectedly hung up, so that the clue was completely cut off here.
Four months after Lin Xuelan's disappearance, her body was finally found in the suburbs, and the body had been burned to the point that it was impossible to see its face, and the body was decomposed. After a series of inspections, the police confirmed that the body was Lin Xuelan's.
Cheng Zili, Lu Yichen, Ling Feiyu and Nie Jiuhan went to the police station to identify the body.
Cheng Zili was still pregnant with a child, so naturally she couldn't let her see those, so she let Cheng Zili sit in the corridor of the police station, accompanied by Xiaozong and them.
Lu Yichen and Nie Jiuhan, who could barely stand, entered the morgue together.
A wail came out, startling everyone waiting in the hallway.
Cheng Zili's hands trembled badly, fortunately she was sitting now, otherwise she would definitely be unable to stand with trembling legs.
Although the police have confirmed the identity of the body, it is Lin Xuelan, but as a relative, I still can't help but have a little luck, but now, that wail has broken a string in people's hearts.
Ling Feiyu was the first to run out, didn't talk to anyone, and left the police station crying.
Nie Jiuhan was picked out of it by Lu Yichen.
After handing over Nie Jiuhan to the brothers, Lu Yichen put his arms around Cheng Zili's waist and almost picked her up from the seat.
"I'll take you home first."
"I ...... Yichen, can I take a look, just take a look. ”
"No way!"
Lu Yichen's answer was categorical, and there was no room for negotiation at all.
"Please, Yichen, that's my mother, just let me take a look!"
Lu Yichen turned his head to look at Cheng Zili, and his face, which had been tense, relaxed a little the moment he saw Cheng Zili.
"Look at Master."
Cheng Zili turned her head and looked at Nie Jiuhan, who was sitting in a chair in a daze, and the domineering master who had always been in good spirits, as if he had aged by more than ten years all of a sudden.
On weekdays, when he was energetic, he couldn't see how white his hair was, but now that he was sluggish, Nie Jiuhan's hair seemed to be a lot grayer.
"It's the same when you see it, Master is enough for one person, how can you let me take care of the two of you at the same time? Purple glass! For my sake, for the sake of the children, don't look! Please be strong! ”
Cheng Zili nodded heavily with tears in her eyes.
After sending Cheng Zili home, Lu Yichen returned to the cold snow.
"How's the investigation going?"
"The people of the hurricane are all relatively tight, and the caliber is the same, and they all say that they have not seen Mrs. Ling. But I found a man who had worked as a security guard at Hurricane Films, and according to him, he had seen Mrs. Ling on the night she disappeared. ”
Lu Yichen had already targeted Jian Yunjue's body, Cheng Zili told Lin Xuelan about the relationship between Jian Yunjue and Nie Jiuhan, Lin Xuelan thought that Jian Yunjue and Cheng Zili were brothers and sisters, and when she saw the news on TV, Jian Yunjue said that she was going to marry Cheng Zili, so she was naturally anxious, so she hung up the phone in a hurry and went to Hurricane Film and Television to find Jian Yunjue.
But this is just Lu Yichen's speculation and reasoning, and he has no evidence during the investigation of Hurricane Film and Television. Lu Yichen also discovered Jian Yunjue's other secrets.
Although he had known that Jian Yunjue was involved in the underworld for a long time, he didn't expect that he was not just involved in the underworld.
"In this way, Mrs. Ling did go to the office building of Hurricane Film and Television that night, so did that person say when did Mrs. Ling leave?"
"He didn't say it, he changed shifts later, I also asked him this question, he helped me call the colleague who was changing shifts with him at the time, the person said that the time was too long to remember, but he remembered that he should have seen Mrs. Ling leave, because it was something that happened just after the shift change, so it was speculated that the time should be more than eleven o'clock and less than twelve o'clock."
"When people are gone, that's what happens on the way home. But can the words of those two little security guards be believed? Could they be mistaken? ”
"The person in front of me should not be mistaken, he said very clearly, what kind of clothes Mrs. Ling passed that night, what time did they arrive, and what they said matched. He also talked to Mrs. Ling that night, and described Mrs. Ling's demeanor and tone correctly. It's just that what the second person said was a little unclear, only the clothes were right, and he didn't see anything else. ”
Ever since he knew that Lin Xuelan was missing, Nie Jiuhan had been anxious, but in the end, when he waited for the news of Lin Xuelan's death, Nie Jiuhan was like a deflated ball, and he couldn't lift his spirits anymore.
Whether it is for Cheng Zili or Nie Jiuhan, Lu Yichen has to find out the murderer who killed Lin Xuelan.
When I returned home in the evening, I saw that Cheng Zili had already packed her things.
"Zili, what are you doing here?"
"Yichen, I have to go back to my hometown."
At first, I thought Cheng Zili was having some kind of temper, but when she said this, Lu Yichen had no reason to stop her.
"Grandma, is she okay?"
Cheng Zili was silent and did not answer.
How could it be good? At such an age, I hoped that the children would be well, but I didn't expect my children to walk in front of me.
"I still have a lot of work to do, and I can't get out of it for a while, you ...... I'm not at ease. ”
Lu Yichen held Cheng Zili's hand and refused to let go, he really wanted to make her small, put her in his pocket and take her wherever he went.
But Cheng Zili's mind has been decided, and Lu Yichen really has no way to accompany her.
"Oh well! I'll drive you. ”
It doesn't matter if she returns to her hometown, at least there will not be someone like Lu Yuanhao by her side, who may betray her at any time.
Grandma is really sick this time, and she is also a lot older, and she seems to be a little energetic when she sees Cheng Zili with a big belly.
"You kid, you're so old, what are you doing running around?"
"Grandma, I miss you!"
In Cheng Zili's childhood impression, her grandmother was very tall, and when she grew up like her grandmother, she would be an adult.
But now, Cheng Zili bent down to hug her grandmother's rickety body.
Thinking of once saying to Lin Xuelan that she would go home to see her grandmother together, Cheng Zili's tears flowed out uncontrollably.
"Oops~ they're all going to be mothers, and they're so childish!"
After dinner in the evening, Cheng Zili and her grandmother went out for a walk to eat.
Cheng Zili hadn't eaten such a comfortable meal for a long time, and although the food cooked by the chef was also very delicious when she was at Lu's house, she just didn't feel at home.
Cheng Zili came back this time, and naturally many neighbors pointed fingers at her.
"Isn't that Cheng Zili?"
"Yo~ She's back? Does she know to come back? I heard that she became a big star, and she didn't even want her grandmother. ”
"It's really pitiful for the old man to live alone all day long!"
Although these words were said behind Cheng Zili's back, he didn't lower his voice at all when he spoke, he just wanted to say it to her.
"Grandma, you better go back with me to live together, you see everyone is beating my backbone!"
Cheng Zili and Lu Yichen wanted to take the old man to the city more than once to enjoy the happiness, especially after Cheng Zili and Lin Xuelan recognized each other, Lin Xuelan should also take the old man to his side to support.
But grandma just wouldn't.
"I'm fine here, and I'm familiar with the people and things around me, and if you want me to go to you, I can't even find the vegetable market. I don't know the people around, usually you are busy with work, especially you, as soon as you catch the announcement, you will fly all over the world, I can't catch the shadow, I won't be an empty nester, I'm here, I'm not old enough to take care of myself, I can still square dance. ”
"But we don't worry about you living alone, it's good that you're tough now, but after all, you're old, if you encounter something one day, you don't even have anyone around."
The two ancestors and grandchildren were talking, and a group of people in front blocked their way.
