It was still dusk when he entered the door, and when he reached the steps of the main house, night had completely fallen, and Chu Chaoyang walked so that his calves and stomach were sore.

Of course, it was spring in Australia at this time, and it was already getting dark quickly.

Before they entered the door, they heard Ling Huyang's voice, turned around to see that he was getting out of the car, and was very excited to see them, "I didn't expect you to come, it's really good." ”

Ling Huyang took a box out, as if it was filled with red wine, and patted Chu Chaoyang on the shoulder as he walked, "Chaoyang, it just so happened that a friend gave me a bottle of red wine, let's have a good drink in the evening." ”

Chu Chaoyang smiled and followed him inside, but found that Linghu Xiaoya was still standing on the steps and had no intention of going inside.

"Little girl?"

Weng and his son-in-law turned their heads and glanced at each other, not knowing what she was looking at, it was dark, what else could they see?

"Dad, I still have something to do with Chaoyang, we have to go back."

"Go back...... Okay, do you need to send it to you? ”

"No need, the car is waiting at the door."

"Then I'll send you out."

When Chu Chaoyang thought that he was going to walk out for a long distance again, the car that had just sent Ling Huyang back stopped again and drove the three of them to the door.

Speechless all the way, back to the hotel where she was staying, Ling Hu Xiaoya hurriedly ran back to the room without saying a word, threw herself on the bed and cried, crying so inexplicably that Chu Chaoyang cried.

"You...... Who is this sad for? Chu Moyang? ”

At the mention of this name, Chu Chaoyang was very reluctant, but apart from her, they didn't meet any people or things that could make Ling Fox Xiaoya sad and sad that day. Or is it because of that beautiful manor?

"Chaoyang, what to do, what to do......"

"What to do?"

"I think I'm so useless, but I still don't know anything about my parents, I don't know everything about them, why don't they take me home, why can't we be together even though they live in the same city?"

Chu Chaoyang touched his head, not knowing how to answer her question, not to mention that she didn't know anything for a few days, he had been with Ling Huyang for four years and was still ignorant and ignorant, how could she be blamed for being useless?

And—

"The house...... It shouldn't be your family, we used to live by the sea, and the small white bungalow is also quite beautiful, although it is not as big as the manor. ”

"By the sea? Little white bungalow? ”

"Hmm."

Linghu Xiaoya is messy, what is this? She is here to solve the mystery on this trip to Australia, why is she even more confused? Chu Chaoyang has been here with Ling Huyang for four years, but he has never been to that magnificent manor, which is her parents' home here?

"I've tried to ask, but your dad always digresses, sorry ......"

Linghu Xiaoya shook her head with red and swollen eyes, "What did you say I'm sorry, I asked my mother to do the same, and she didn't say anything, and hinted that I should leave quickly, as if she didn't like me here." You say, does she dislike me here or doesn't like me? ”

"This ......"

If he had to choose one of the two, of course Chu Chaoyang could only answer: "I probably don't want you to stay here......

"Why?"

I had expected her to ask the reason, but Chu Chaoyang didn't know it himself, so how could he answer her?

"Perhaps...... It's the same reason why they didn't leave here to find you......"

Linghu Xiaoya looked at him steadily, tears still couldn't stop falling, sobbing for a while, and finally barely stopped, "Really? ”

Chu Chaoyang nodded, "Maybe." ”

"So, why on earth did they stay here and not come back to me?"

“……”

went around and around to the origin, if Chu Chaoyang knew, would he still need to travel thousands of miles to find the answer?

Chu Chaoyang was also silent, this question had been hidden in his heart for four years, although there were several opportunities to reveal the secret during this period, but as if someone stopped him, he was always interrupted at the last moment.

All of this has something to do with Bai Nanjin, right?

"You say, will my mother be with Bai Nanjin?"

After holding back for a few days, Linghu Xiaoya finally couldn't help but say it.

"Huh?"

Chu Chaoyang looked at her with his mouth wide open, "You don't have a fever, do you?" Do you know what you're talking about? ”

Linghu Xiaoya nodded tearfully, "Of course I know." ”

"This ......"

Chu Chaoyang felt that it was impossible no matter how he thought about it, not to mention the age gap, not to mention that Liu Xiaobei had his own family, not to mention the various gaps between the two,...... There doesn't seem to be much more to say than that, but it's just impossible.

"Why is it impossible, if it weren't for this, why did my mom leave my dad and Xiao Nuan for five years?"

"Need for work?"

"What kind of work does it take to leave your family for five years!"

Linghu Xiaoya jumped up angrily, "Tell me, what can make people leave their families?" What else could there be but death? But they're all alive and well! And you, obviously alive, why didn't you tell me? You've been here for four years, and now you don't know anything and don't tell me what you've been doing here for the past four years! ”

“……”

said that Chu Chaoyang looked very incompetent, but of course this is not the case.

Chu Chaoyang hugged Linghu Xiaoya in his arms and patted her on the back to soothe her emotions, "Don't be like this, calm down and listen to me, I'll tell you everything I know." ”

"Then why didn't you say it earlier!"

Linghu Xiaoya made another fuss in his arms, even kicking and scratching, and she burst into tears again, and finally fell weakly on Chu Chaoyang's chest and whimpered in a low voice.

"When your dad knew who I was, he wanted to send me away as soon as possible, but I was too injured to leave, and then I ......"

Chu Chaoyang tried hard to remember, recalling the night that made him decide to stay.

Linghu Xiaoya waited with her head up in his arms, desperate to know everything.

"Later, I was able to walk around on the ground, and I wanted to thank him again, but I saw him crying with a photo of you when you were a child, it seems to be when you were one or two years old. I asked him why he never went back and why he didn't tell you they were still alive. ”

"What did he say?"

Chu Chaoyang shook his head regretfully, "He didn't answer, just shed tears, and I couldn't bear to ask again." ”

Linghu Xiaoya clenched her fists, wanting to beat Chu Chaoyang but was reluctant, obviously it was none of his business, didn't it?

"He kept crying and crying, and the whole person looked very old, which made me feel very uncomfortable...... I have always had a bad relationship with my father, I haven't been in touch for so many years, and I don't know how his physical condition is...... I kind of understandable. ”

"Understand what? What do you really know? Why does it get more and more confusing, and what does this have to do with your father? ”

"They may have a last resort for staying here, they don't contact you and don't tell you they're alive...... Presumably out of guilt, they'd rather you think they're dead. ”

Like a sharp blade, Ling Fox Xiaoya's chest was penetrated, she gently pushed Chu Chaoyang away and looked down, as if she saw a large area of blood spreading.

"Guilty?"

"My father treated me, and I treated my father, because I didn't dare to contact each other because of the guilt of each other, and because my proud self-esteem didn't allow me to bow my head first, so I ......"

"But it's family! What more guilt do you have between family members! ”

"Little girl, maybe that's not the case, you calm down and listen to me."

Linghu Xiaoya was forcefully pressed on the sofa, Chu Chaoyang paced back and forth and slowly recalled, and said slowly:

"I offered him to call you, and he refused, saying he couldn't. Once again he asked me to leave, and if it weren't for his illness and hospitalization, I think I would have really left. ”

"Sickness? What's wrong with him? ”

"It doesn't seem to be a serious illness, they don't allow me to go to the hospital, it seems that they are deliberately hiding it from me, even Xiao Nuan doesn't know what your father's illness is, but he knows that he has convulsions all over his body when he is sick, and sometimes he will foam at the mouth, which is very scary."

"It's ...... Epilepsy? Epilepsy? Or what? ”

Chu Chaoyang still shook his head, "Whether I guessed correctly or not, there is no way to confirm it." Later, when he asked me if I was determined to stay, I thought I should stay and take care of him for you. ”
