Someone who looks like Wanwan's mother?

Huo Qingsui's expression was imperceptible.

The next second, he suddenly remembered that last night in Dijing, Li Youlin said that he had seen Xia Zhengtao who came and left in a hurry at the banquet.

And now......

Xia Zhengtao appeared here, asking questions related to Wanwan's mother so urgently.

Is it a coincidence?

"Mr. Huo......"

From sitting here to now, Xia Zhengtao has been in a state of nervousness, and now he didn't hear Huo Qingsui's answer in time, he only felt that a string in his brain was tense, and it was about to break.

Almost unconsciously took a step forward, and he repeated eagerly in a dumb voice: "Mr. Huo, there is a ......"

"Xia Dong, what's going on?" Huo Qing interrupted his words with an indifferent expression.

Xia Zheng was stunned.

Huo Qing's eyes deepened, and the faint oppression dispersed: "Xia Dong, as far as I know, yesterday you should have been in Haicheng to talk about the project, but last night, you suddenly appeared at the Heaton Hotel, and you didn't stay long and left with a not very good-looking face." ”

"I ......" Xia Zhengtao looked at him with some surprise, but it was only a moment, and he looked away, as if he was ...... The weak-hearted fled in the wilderness.

Huo Qing took in the changes in his expression, and simply singled out directly: "You rushed back from Haicheng because you suddenly got news of Wanwan's mother, right?" So, before that, what happened again, I need to know. ”

After a pause, he looked at him heavily, and pulled out the thoughts he ignored: "Xia Dong, do you think this is just a coincidence, or is it someone else's prank?" I believe not, otherwise, you wouldn't be standing here right now. ”

A few gentle and indifferent words, but with a strong beak that cannot be denied.

Xia Zhengtao was silent, and the emotions that had tormented him all night suddenly rampage again at this moment, as if he would not give up if he was not tossed badly.

Minutes and seconds passed.

After a long hesitation, Xia Zhengtao closed his eyes, hoarse and trembled slightly: "Yesterday, after talking to Wanwan, I ...... Received an anonymous phone call that said...... said that the mother who was late would appear at the birthday banquet of Old Man Huo. ”

Anonymous phone ......

Late Mother Appears......

Huo Qingsui's eyes sank, and even his voice was a little darker: "Why do you say that your mother will appear soon?" What else has happened before? ”

As the words fell, an incredible thought came to mind.

If......

Everything is not a coincidence, so, is it true that Wanwan's mother did not die?

But......

Huo Qingsui glanced at Xia Zhengtao calmly, thinking of the strong opposition that time, he asked again: "Xia Dong, what else are you hiding?" I need you to tell me everything. ”

"I ......"

Xia Zhengtao was speechless, he didn't want to say it, but when his eyes met with Huo Qingsui, he was immediately stunned.

"Bang bang bang-"

He suddenly heard the sound of his own heartbeat, fast and irregular, and the hand that fell on his side unconsciously clenched again, and even his nerves were tighter than just now.

Finally, he opened his mouth, his expression was dark and difficult to distinguish: "When Wanwan was young, I once received a mysterious phone call, and it was that person who told me that Wanwan ...... Not my child. Not long ago, the mysterious man's phone call ...... Here it is again, the man said...... Say ......"

Recalling the situation that day, his pupils contracted violently and imperceptibly, and then he licked his lips unconsciously, and then continued: "Say...... The Death of the Mother...... And...... It has something to do with your father, Wanwan's life experience...... It is very likely that it is also related to your Huo family...... That's why I was so strongly opposed to you being together. ”

Every word, he said was extremely obscure and difficult.

And at the moment when his last syllable ended, Huo Qingsui's expression, which had never been seen through, fluctuated significantly.

The death of the late mother, and ...... Is Huo Rong related?

For a while, Huo Qingsui only felt indescribably complicated in his heart.

"And yesterday, I got another phone call and he said...... Say ......" Xia Zhengtao's emotions suddenly became excited, and his eyes widened, "Say that Wanwan's mother is not dead!" She'll show up at the birthday party! So I ......"

As the words fell, his breathing became heavy, and the anticipation in his eyes became more and more obvious.

"Mr. Huo, you ......"

Huo Qing came back to his senses, and his voice was unconsciously depressed: "Have you sent someone to check the so-called mysterious call?" ”

Xia Zhengtao seemed to be hit on the head, and he was stunned for a moment.

Huo Qingsui glanced at him.

Two seconds later, his voice was indescribably deep: "Mother of the night...... When you died in a car accident, did you, the doctor, see it with your own eyes? If yes, do you think a person will come back from the dead years after a doctor pronounces him dead? ”

Xia Zhengtao only felt that the flame of hope was extinguished by a basin of cold water.

In an instant, his eyes turned extremely gloomy, and his face was like ashes.

Oh, yes.

At the beginning, he watched her go, she died, how could it be...... What about resurrection from the dead?

But......

Huo Qingsui knew what he was thinking, and without hesitation, he took out his mobile phone and called up the email: "There is something, Xia Dong, you need to know, Wanwan yesterday, I saw a person who looked very similar to her mother." ”

“…… What the?! Xia Zhengtao's breath staggered!

Huo Qingsui directly handed the mail information to him.

Xia Zhengtao's hands trembled uncontrollably.

He couldn't believe it.

But in my heart, I have a very strong desire to believe.

Will......

Suddenly, he didn't have the courage to pick up his phone.

Until—

Huo Qing spoke in a hoarse voice.

"She is British-Chinese, this is her first time returning to China, and judging from the information obtained from the investigation, she is not Wanwan's mother."

Hope, disappointment, hope, ...... again Lots of disappointment.

Xia Zhengtao felt that his mood was like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs, and finally being thrown down.

He took his phone.

Even if the hand is still shaking, even if it is ...... The chest was so tight that it was about to suffocate.

And then......

He saw the picture.

Unconsciously, he held the phone with more force, as if he was going to crush it.

Huo Qing looked at him, his expression never changed, he didn't think that his action was too cruel to Xia Zhengtao, because he knew that what Xia Zhengtao needed was to be sober, once he was not sober, it was easy to be used again.

Narrowing his eyes, he opened his mouth and asked, "Is it her?" ”

Xia Zhengtao opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but suddenly he couldn't make a sound, and almost at the same time, an indescribable complex emotion poured out from the bottom of his heart, surrounded him impenetrably, and made him lose sight.

Long.

He shook his head, his voice weak and hoarse, revealing a deep sense of disappointment and death: "It's not her...... She...... She had a tiny, tiny plum blossom birthmark on her left earlobe that couldn't be removed, but the man was ...... No. ”

After saying a difficult sentence, all the strength of his body seemed to be drained.

After a moment, he let out a long sigh of relief and smiled self-deprecatingly and bitterly: "It's me...... It's extravagant, and it's so messed up by a phone call. Mr. Huo," he raised his head again, he looked at the man in front of him fixedly, and continued obscurely, "Our words today...... As before, forever...... Don't let Wanwan know, okay? ”

The dullness in her chest ...... getting worse and worse, Xia Zhengtao subconsciously covered her heart, "No matter what, she's ...... will always be my daughter, will not change, and ...... It can't change, and everything now can't change ......."

Won't change ......

No change.

With that last word, he forced himself to take a deep breath, then tried to stop his back and turned to leave.

"Excuse me."

Huo Qingsui looked at his back as he almost staggered away for a moment, and somehow, his heart gradually sank.

If Xia Zhengtao hadn't appeared today and hadn't said those words, perhaps, he would really think that the so-called look-alike was really just a coincidence, after all, there are no wonders in the world.

But......

Lowering his eyes, he unlocked the screen and looked at the information again.

Word after word, not even punctuation marks skipped, and finally, his gaze fell on the left earlobe on the photo.

The office suddenly became extremely silent.

Until—

"Knock knock—"

Shi Jun's knock on the door sounded: "Huo Shao." ”

"Come in."

The door opened, and Shi Jun approached with a document: "Huo Shao, this document needs your signature." ”

Huo Qing didn't answer, and his slender fingers fell on the mobile phone screen: "That project in the UK, you go and follow up, don't let anyone notice, understand?" ”

Shi Jun took the opportunity to look at it and understood at once.

"Understood." He replied in a low voice.

Huo Qing's eyes were dark: "Check out if there was a birthmark on her left earlobe." Also, check it out...... What role does Huo Dongting play in it? ”

"Yes."

Shi Jun was surprised, and then turned around and went out.

Huo Qing tapped lightly on the table with his fingers.

A moment later, he dialed Li Youlin's phone, which was rare, almost a second before the phone was about to be hung up naturally.

"Hello?"

A lazy voice with a hint of drunkenness came over the phone.

Huo Qing frowned slightly: "What's wrong with you?" ”

On the other end of the phone, Li Youlin was silent for a few seconds, and then pulled his lips self-deprecatingly, and responded hoarsely: "Let's talk about your business first." ”

Huo Qingsui understood his temper, and when he heard the words, he temporarily let go of his worries, lowered his voice and said a word.

Li Youlin's originally chaotic brain became sober in an instant.

He sat up suddenly, with a solemn expression: "Fourth." ”

"I'm not good at checking, you help me." Huo Qing's eyes were dark and bottomless.

“…… Okay, leave it to me. ”

"Thank you." Huo Qingsui's eyes narrowed slightly.

Hope......

It's not like that.

The two fell silent almost simultaneously.

Li Youlin's gaze inadvertently swept over a photo on the bedside table, and after his emotions fluctuated, he finally spoke: "Fourth, it's time to talk about me." Tell me, last night, why did you hide it from me? Four years ago, she ...... Why go abroad? ”
