019 The Mystery of Adoption
Yitian Hotel is a semi-official accommodation on the campus of Central South University. Although Shangguan still does not understand why it is located in the most prosperous part of the school, it seems that every school, like most universities in China, seems to have such a hotel, with a semi-public surname, reasonable fees, and the most attractive thing is that such a place is well managed, and it is generally much cleaner than the hotels outside.
When he came to the door of the hotel, Shangguan was very worried.
Why did this lovely cousin come up to me in the middle of the night? And if she behaves out of order for a while, how will she deal with it? Shangguan has no solution at all about these problems.
Somewhat complicated and somewhat joyful, he walked into the lobby of the hotel. And at this time, his phone rang again.
"Brother, where are you?" Xiaohui's beautiful voice came from the microphone again, and it seemed that even her voice had taken on a hint of squeamishness.
"Uh......" Shangguan, who usually speaks fluently, squeaked now, "I just got to the hall downstairs, I'll come up now." He could even feel his throat, thirsty from nervousness.
- Oh, it's embarrassing, it's embarrassing.
Shangguan walked up the stairs to the corridor, and then rang the doorbell with nervousness.
"Here we go." Xiaohui's voice came faintly through the door, sounding like a light little yellow finch.
"Well, it's time to come, let's take one step at a time." Shangguan bit his lower lip lightly, like a strong man rushing to righteousness.
With a squeak, the door was halfway opened. Shangguan saw the scene in front of him, and his eyes widened a little in surprise. I saw the lovely Xiaohui, only surrounded by the hotel's white scarf, looking at him with a smile. "I've been waiting for you for a long time, why are you here now?" Her voice seemed to be very happy.
"Uh...... Something happened on the way. Shangguan hurriedly made up an excuse.
"Get up and sit down." Xiaohui generously opened the door and made a gesture of "please go inside".
In the room, a faint fragrance came from the room, and the TV was turned on, playing live news programs. At this time, it no longer matters what program is played, Shangguan shook off his messy thoughts in his mind.
Shangguan felt that his body, as if he was too surprised, I don't know when he started, he was no longer conscious at all. This body, which he had used for nearly twenty years, at this moment, seemed to have been completely lent to someone else, and it no longer had any connection with him at all.
After hesitating for a long time, Shangguan finally asked tentatively, "Uh, Xiaohui, you, this ...... Is that good? "He was trembling, and he was afraid that the scene would be frozen.
"It's okay, they're all so familiar." Xiaohui smiled, looked at the scarf on her body, and said, "Come in quickly, I have to close the door quickly." ”
"But...... After all, we are related by blood, so we can't do this, right? "Shangguan's brain has long been congested to the point of exploding.
"Huh?" Xiaohui seemed to be stunned.
Shangguan hurriedly explained, "After all, you are my cousin, how can we ...... How can you? When he had finished, he scolded the other party in righteous words.
"Huh?" Xiaohui still seemed surprised, and it wasn't until she held this motion for a few seconds that she burst out laughing.
"What to laugh at, if you can't do it, you can't do it, I'm very principled." Shangguan said. However, Liu Xiaohui didn't pay attention to his brother's words at all, squatted on the ground with laughter, covered her stomach, and even burst into tears.
"Funny, it's so funny......" she said intermittently, then looked up at Shangguan.
"Hey, is it Shangguan? Come in when you arrive. At the same time, a deep man's voice sounded from the room, sounding like an elder in his forties and fifties.
Yes? Is there even a "third party" here? Shangguan followed the voice into the room, and Liu Xiaohui locked the room in the back.
When Shangguan saw the man lying on the bed against the wall watching TV, he wanted to die. I saw a man with gray hair and a Chinese face, but his spirit was still very good, looking at Shangguan with a smile. The man was already sitting on the bed before Shangguan came in, seemingly watching the news program boredly.
"Auntie...... Uncle. Shangguan shouted, lowered his head, and immediately turned red. If there was a crack in the ground, he would have gotten into it as soon as possible.
That's right, this person is Liu Xiaohui's father, his name is Liu Bofu, for Shangguan, this is a veritable "elder".
"Uncle, why are you here......" Shangguan asked. However, in his heart, he also scolded at the same time: If you weren't here, I wouldn't have misunderstood, and I would definitely not have made such a big appearance.
Liu Bofu smiled and shrugged his shoulders. After talking to Shangguan about business, he first corrected: "What are you doing, how have I taught you all along." ”
"Yes, Brother Fu." Shangguan crooked his mouth and changed his words dissatisfiedly. This uncle's surname is very strange, he never likes to call him kinship, and he always asks himself to call him "Brother Fu". Although Shangguan scoffed at this, he could only respect the other party's thoughts.
"Brother Fu, why are you here?" After changing the title, Shangguan asked again.
At this moment, Liu Bofu began to talk to Shangguan about business.
It turned out that this morning, Liu Bofu came to Central South University to find a female student. He is lying here to see Shangguan Yi, a child, and he wants to talk to him about something. Originally, I asked my daughter to meet him in the second canteen at noon, and I wanted to go back after talking, but I didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, I didn't even see a figure. Later, my daughter found out through her roommate in Shangguan's bedroom, and heard that he had been beaten, and the call to Shangguan had not been answered.
Then, half an hour ago, her daughter contacted Shangguan Yi, and while waiting, Liu Xiaohui felt that her body was really slimy, so she took a shower in the hotel.
When Shangguan came to ring the doorbell, Xiaohui had just come out of the bathroom, and she hadn't even changed her clothes, so she rushed to open the door.
So, the scene of the previous tragic surname happened.
Seeing Xiaohui sitting next to the coffee table with a smile and looking at herself, Shangguan glanced back at her with disdain. However, when his eyes saw Liu Bofu again, he instantly regained the humility and weakness of his juniors, and said, "Brother Fu, then you are looking for me, what is the matter?" ”
"That's right," Liu Bofu cleared his throat and said, "Today, I'm going to tell you the truth. Actually, you and Liu Xiaohui are not really cousins. ”
"Huh?" Shangguan was a little stunned.
What trick is this playing?
Liu Bofu took out a black briefcase from his side, took out a big notebook from it, he flipped through many pages in the notebook, and finally took out a small composition paper that had been plasticized. Shangguan curiously took the composition paper, and saw that on the top title line, there were four big words written "Letter to Good Samaritans".
Shangguan read the letter word for word.
"Dear Good Samaritan: Hello. Thank you for picking up my daughter on the bench, she is a very poor girl, we gave birth to her, but we have not and cannot do the duty of parenthood. For various reasons, we can only leave her, and, with a deep love for her, choose to leave.
"I don't know what your financial situation is, but I think if you can give her three meals, give her a basic education, and have a love for your little children, I beg you to adopt her and treat her well. I will thank you in heaven, and with my gratitude to you, I will sing praises to you day and night, and your kindness will be rewarded.
"Thank you, you've never met.
"Oh, by the way, her name is Xiaohui. You adopted her, and she deserves your last name, but if you don't mind, I would like to ask you to keep her name.
"Thank you, kind you."
Later, it was a payment period more than ten years ago.
The handwriting of the letter was sloppy, and it was evident that the owner had written it in a hurry. Moreover, although the text of the letter is very smooth, the structure and general idea of the paragraph are not neat, but it is written as if the author is writing while thinking, and he or she does not have time to conceive and organize it...... It's really a letter full of suspense.
Who is the owner who wrote this letter? In what circumstances did she write this letter? She mentioned in the letter that she would sing hymns in heaven, so was she already dead?
This series of puzzles, with the passage of more than ten years, has become farther and farther away. Although Shangguan couldn't guess the answer, he could already know that after so long, it would never be easy to find the truth of what happened back then.
"Hehehehehe," Liu Bofu looked at Shangguan and said quietly: "I came today mainly to let you know about this matter. ”
"Why did you come out of this to tell me about it?" When Shangguan was asking this sentence, he noticed that Liu Xiaohui didn't seem to be too surprised and stunned at what his father had just said. It seems that she already knows her true background.
From this point of view, Shangguan admires Liu Bofu a lot, he adopted Xiaohui, but he didn't mind telling her that he was not his own. This kind of big-bellied feeling that is not afraid of her daughter running to find her biological father is a manifestation of really loving Xiaohui and doing everything for her.
"Uh......" Liu Bofu crossed his hands, as if he was thinking about where to start, he pursed his lips, and after a long time, he said: "I heard that you won the first place in the mecha competition of the Shengyu Internet Cafe at CUHK?" ”
Shangguan nodded and said, "That's right." Then he asked, "But does that have anything to do with telling me the truth?" ”
When he said this, Liu Bofu hadn't opened his mouth yet, he shouted in surprise and said, "Could it be ......?"
Could it be that Liu Bofu is also a person in the mecha world? He knew the secrets of the mecha world, and he also knew that since Shangguan won the championship of the Central South University Mecha Competition, he was very likely to step into the stage that changed the world in the future...... And, to find the secret of Xiaohui's birth, the only way to find it is to pursue it on that stage?
