Hearing this, Qiao Zongmin was obviously cheered up.
He saw Qiao Shao's change in his eyes, and knew it better than anyone else.
"Yes, his appetite and sleep are much better than before."
Only when Qiao Zongmin talked about his son could he barely suppress the pain of losing his wife.
Zhang Guanting listened patiently. Although what Qiao Zongmin said was almost the same as what Qiao Shao said, he still listened to him as if he had heard it for the first time.
This is a great consolation for Qiao Zongmin, and his son's recovery is the best medicine for his spirit.
After speaking, Qiao Zongmin paused.
Zhang Guanting accurately captured his thoughts: "You want to meet his new friend, right?"
Qiao Zongmin sighed lightly and said, "I won't interfere with his new environment."
Although I really want to meet those lovely teenagers, I want to thank them, and I want to see the environment that has improved my son’s condition up close…
But Qiao Zongmin understood that once he appeared, this new environment would collapse.
Qiao Shao will soon become an isolated existence again.
Even if his friends didn't do it on purpose, they would draw deep boundaries because of the distant family and Qiao Shao's tragic experience.
Now Qiao Shao can't bear this kind of "quietness" that is only his own.
Thinking of this, Qiao Zongmin couldn't help but worry and asked: "There will always be a day when the lie is exposed, and the situation will be worse."
Zhang Guanting explained patiently: "As long as Qiao Shao has enough courage to face it, it will not."
This seems like a paradox.
Qiao Shao concealed his identity and went to a new environment in order to regain the courage to face life.
But there is a huge hidden danger in this matter, because once exposed, he will lose his current life.
Wouldn't this be another serious blow to him
actually not.
The root of everything lies in Qiao Shao.
Now he doesn't have the courage to face it, so he needs to hide it.
But once he has the courage to face it, there is no need to hide it.
Alienation due to family disparity will not have much negative impact on a psychologically normal child.
But for the current Qiao Shao, it may be the last straw that overwhelms the camel.
It is impossible to hide forever.
Just need a critical moment -
When Qiao Shao can face his past, he can face his new friend with his true identity.
Even if it is destined to lose a part, it will not be unbearable.
not to mention…
Zhang Guanting said to Qiao Zongmin: "The good boy who can heal Qiao Shao will not hurt him again."
These words pulled Qiao Zongmin out of the dead end.
He smiled and said to Zhang Guanting, "Thank you."
When Qiao Shao woke up, he was already lying on the bed.
He looked at the ceiling and sighed helplessly.
Or not…
I can't remember, no matter what, I can't remember what happened that year, and I can't remember...
As soon as the word "mother" crossed his mind, he immediately felt a cramp-like pain.
Qiao Shao didn't dare to force himself to think.
He lay in bed for a while before slowly getting up.
Opposite the bedroom is his study. He kicked his slippers in and walked around the table full of books to the back bookcase.
There are many books neatly arranged there, famous novels from various countries, popular novels, and many psychological books.
Qiao Shao opened the glass window and took out the hardcover book with a sky blue cover.
The Blade, by William Somerset Maugham.
This is one of his favorite books, he likes the protagonist Larry in it, and every time he reads him, he can experience that comforting sense of tranquility.
Not quiet, but quiet.
It can calm his mind, let the pain dissipate, and let him reconcile with himself.
So he put that newspaper in the book.
Qiao Shao took a deep breath, and when he opened the book, he saw the page that was cut out.
A line of large characters on the top is like blood, shocking—
The only son of the Qiao family who has been missing for a year is finally back!
There is a picture on the left. Qiao Zongmin's face is mixed with joy and sorrow, holding the child in his arms as if he is holding a fragile glass product.
It was a teenage boy, scrawny, the only things showing were long dark hair and pale ankles.
He curled up in Qiao Zongmin's arms, not like a teenager, but like an inactive baby.
Just looking at it, Qiao Shao felt a stagnation in his chest.
He sighed lightly, realizing that he could continue watching.
The article is not too exaggerated, otherwise it would not have been published.
It is not uncommon for the only son of a wealthy family to be kidnapped.
But Qiao Shao's kidnapping was too incredible.
No one knows how the kidnappers took him away, and the kidnappers never contacted the Qiao family and never asked for a ransom.
Qiao Zongmin, who had lost his only son, searched like crazy. At first, he suppressed the news, but then he couldn't hold back at all. He wanted to turn the whole world upside down.
But I can't find it, no one has seen this child, as if it disappeared out of thin air.
It was not until a year later that Qiao Shao himself appeared in the Deep Sea Building, the headquarters of the Qiao family.
No one knows what happened to him this year.
All I know is that he has lost weight and has serious mental problems.
He is afraid of women, especially women in their forties. He has almost lost the ability to speak, and is extremely afraid of quiet environments. As long as there is no sound, he will fall into painful convulsions.
Qiao Zongmin searched for famous doctors and used unimaginable energy and financial resources to gradually restore Qiao Shao.
But Qiao Shao doesn't remember anything...
He doesn't remember everything from that year...
Qiao Shao saw a small photo at the bottom of the newspaper.
Qiao Zongmin's only son - Qiao Yi.
This is Qiao Shao's previous name. Since he came back, his grandfather insisted on changing his name, and he also searched for a lot of famous experts to do the same...
Qiao Shao smiled and looked at the photo.
He doesn't even recognize himself...
In the photo is a child of about ten years old, with obvious baby fat, round face, and small facial features. He smiled happily, as if the pain and sorrow in the whole world had nothing to do with him.
Who can imagine.
They are the same person. But in such a short period of time, he became a different person.
Qiao Shao looked at his past self, as if looking at a stranger.
He is nothing like him.
When closing the book, Qiao Shao was in a calm mood.
This is a huge improvement, it is the first time he has read the report in its entirety.
"Huh..."
Qiao Shao sighed lightly and felt the power rising from the bottom of his heart.
It will get better slowly, and Qiao Shao feels that he will get better!
As soon as he returned to the bedroom, he heard the phone ding.
Qiao Shao's heart skipped a beat, and he hesitated for a while before picking up the phone.
I talked to Dr. Zhang in the morning, and he was pretty sure he was planted.
So many girls don't like it, how come...
Still such an unreliable guy!
Qiao Shao was in a complicated mood. He really didn't know if he was qualified to like someone.
But it's okay...
Anyway, He Shen is a straight man, it is impossible to have that kind of meaning towards him.
Then he saw the message from the straight man: "I said that I miss me, but I ignored me for a day ╭(╯^╰)╮."
Qiao Shao: "..."
Uncle Ab doesn't deceive me, straight men are really scary!
Qiao Shaoping calmed his heart and sent him a message: "Speak human words!"
He Shen said seriously: "Have you eaten dinner, together?"
Qiao Shao has nothing to do at night. As long as he talks to Da Qiao, he will definitely be able to go out, but...
He didn't want to see He Shen.
You Qi didn't dare to see him anymore after he found out that he had bad thoughts about him.
"No, I have something to do tonight."
Qiao Shao shook his finger several times before he sent out this sentence cruelly.
After posting it, he was so lost that he actually... really wanted to see He Shen.
After a while, He Shen replied, "Qiao darling, you won't have someone else behind my back, right?"
Qiao Shao blushed, and Pili Bala sent a message: "Don't say some misleading words, who am I? Besides, who are you?"
After posting Qiao Shao, I regretted it.
Could this be too obvious
Will He Shen see something...
But it's not easy to withdraw. Wouldn't it be a guilty conscience to withdraw
Joe thief was flustered.
Soon He Shen returned to him: "I thought I was special to you."
Qiao Shao: "!"
As soon as he mentioned this, another message came from the opposite side: "Do you have other tablemates?"
Qiao Shao: "..."
"Any other tutors? Oh, there are, tell me, right?"
Qiao Shao: "..."
"But surely you don't have anyone else in the same bed?"
Qiao Shao: "..."
Seeing Qiao Shao's delay in returning, He Shen asked, "Do you have one?"
Qiao Shao blushed and returned to him with a heartbeat: "I have a big head of you!"
He Shen replied in seconds: "Well, it's enough for you to have me."
Qiao Shao was stunned for a while before he reacted: "I'm scolding you!"
He Shen is generous: "I don't mind being your big boss."
Qiao Shao threw away the phone and stuffed himself in the quilt.
It's over, it's over, Qiao Shao feels like he's finished!
He used to think that He Shen was talking nonsense, but now he is about to take these nonsense seriously!
How to do…
He always felt that He Shen was teasing him.
But…
Qiao Shao rested his chin on the pillow and thought hard.
What do you have that He Shen likes
Short and thin, unable to exercise, not good at study, and last in the exam.
The only advantage is that the family has money...
Look at He Shen again...
Tall and handsome, all-round in sports, all-round in competitions, and first in the school in exams.
The only flaw is that the family is in debt...
Does he want to use money to influence He Shen
impossible…
This guy doesn't look down on money in his bones!
Such a reflection.
Qiao Shao felt that he was lost in love.
The author has something to say: Cough…
