Chapter 222: Insomnia

Sensing her discomfort, the old man thought for a moment and tried to change the subject, "Child, do you have a picture of your mother?" He asked cautiously.

It's ridiculous to say that he, a father, doesn't even know what his daughter will look like when she grows up.

The granddaughter looks so much like her wife, but what about the daughter? Isn't it the same? Or is it intergenerational?

However, Gu Xiaoyun shook his head, "No." ”

From birth to the present, she only knows that Gu Jianhua has cleaned up all the photos. Nothing was left. There is too little contact between my grandparents and grandparents. Probably because they have an opinion about Gu Jianhua.

What's more, they also take fewer pictures. Some of my mother's photos are only a few when I was a child, "The only people who still have photos of my mother are probably my grandparents." ”

The old man's face sank when he heard this, and his voice became indifferent. That damn man! How dare he completely erase his daughter's existence in front of his granddaughter in such a way.

"Hehe, your father is really good!"

Gu Xiaoyun did not respond. There's nothing to say, in her opinion, her father is indeed a scumbag who has no responsibility. Nothing to wash. If he had taken responsibility, he would not have made her mother suffer so much after marriage. In the end, the marriage ended by cheating.

Since he inquired about his daughter's whereabouts, Mr. Cheng naturally wanted to see her and her children. Unfortunately, it backfired. Two of these wishes can never be fulfilled. Thinking of the grandson who had died before he could take a look, the old man was heartbroken.

"Where's your brother? Where is he buried? "Anyway, let him go and see.

Gu Xiaoyun was stunned. He thought he had already investigated everything about his mother. I didn't expect to know this.

"My brother is not buried."

"What did you say?" Hearing this, he subconsciously thought about things in the worst direction. Anger at the moment! That damn man, could it be that he didn't even prepare for the funeral?

Knowing that he had misunderstood, she hurriedly explained, "My brother may not be dead." ”

"Not dead?" The old man was surprised again. I'm glad that my heart is still strong, otherwise this series of stimuli would have made him have a heart attack.

Thinking of such another person to help her find the answer, Gu Xiaoyun did not hide anything about her brother Gu Tianyou. succinctly explained what she knew.

Listening to her statement, the old man's face became more and more gloomy, and at the end, he slapped the table hard.

"How can it be!" He gasped for air. How can there be such an unreasonable old lady and such an irresponsible scumbag? Since you don't accept other people's children, make it clear from the beginning! Why write so many verbal checks and give so many assurances, only to be unfulfilled in the end?

At first, I heard from the neighbors that the child was naughty and too naughty when he went out to play. The old man couldn't stop him, which caused the tragedy of him stumbling and falling into the river. I didn't expect there to be an insider.

The thought that his grandson might still be alive couldn't help but feel a little excited. If that's the case, then does he still have a chance to make up for the poor child more or less? was already desperate, but I didn't expect to find some hope from despair. As long as there is a little hope, he will not give up.

At the beginning, so many people persuaded him not to continue looking for his daughter, so it was whimsical to find someone who didn't know what he looked like in the vast sea of people. But he never wanted to give up. Facts have also proved that his persistence was not in vain after all.

"Don't worry. Grandpa will definitely help you. "I deliberately used my grandfather, not my grandfather.

In his opinion, the absence of that 'outside' makes it more intimate. What's more, the two Gu family members are really not worthy of the title of grandparents.

******

That night, Gu Xiaoyun lay on the bed and tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. My mind is full of thoughts about what happened during the day. Thinking about what kind of attitude she should have towards Old Man Cheng in the future. Grandpa and grandpa screamed before, because he felt that the other party was very good, and because he had an inexplicable sense of intimacy. Now that I know the blood relationship between them, I have become a little uncomfortable.

After turning over for the Nth time, she looked helplessly at the alarm clock on the bedside table. It's already past two o'clock. The son next to him was sleeping soundly.

If you are like this, will you make a noise to your son? Irritably, he closed his eyes and began to count the sheep.

One, two, three......

Silently counting, telling himself to hurry up and go to bed.

however

Ninety-nine, one hundred!

I counted a hundred, and I still didn't feel sleepy!

Covering his face with a quilt, he sighed irritably. It's so annoying! She's going to sleep! Otherwise, there will be dark circles under your eyes tomorrow!

After a while, I couldn't lie down. Creep to your feet. I want to go outside for a walk and activities, and by the way, pour yourself a glass of water to drink, maybe it will be better.

Quietly pushed open the door and carefully closed it again. Try not to make a sound. After reaching the corridor outside, he breathed a long sigh of relief. There will be a night light in each hallway of the villa. It has a displacement sensing function, and it will automatically turn on whenever someone walks around at night.

Looking at the dim light, Gu Xiaoyun walked towards the other end of the corridor. I was about to go downstairs, but when I was about to walk to the staircase, I found some light in the crack in the door of the study.

I thought it was strange for a while. What time is it, and why are the lights still on? Did someone forget to turn off the lights?

After a moment's deliberation, he stepped forward and knocked on the door. If there is no one, it is better to waste energy like this all the time.

Unexpectedly, a familiar voice soon came from inside, "Come in." ”

Depend on! That guy hasn't slept yet? She blinked in surprise. After a moment's hesitation, he pushed the door open and entered.

The study was bright, and Ye Jingheng was sitting at his desk at this time, his eyes staring at the screen, and his hands were tapping quickly on the keyboard. Sitting at hand was a stack of documents and a pen with the lid open. It looks like it's working. I wondered what important work I needed to stay up all night to complete. During this time, he always left early or skipped work, so much so that she thought he was working leisurely. That doesn't seem to be the case now.

"What's the matter?" I didn't look up at all, so I didn't know who was coming in. It was only the housekeeper who wanted to persuade him to go to bed early.

Gu Xiaoyun stood at the door slightly embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "You, why haven't you slept yet?" ”

The crisp voice made the man's hand movements subconsciously pause. Suddenly raised his head and stood up in surprise, "Why are you up?" ”
