The caravan galloped forward amidst the sound of rock and roll coming from the radio station.
"It's almost there..." Zhang Heng originally wanted to ask that classic sentence, but he still held back.
Gu Zhun naturally knew what Zhang Heng wanted to ask: "I'm not nervous."
"Oh um..." Zhang Heng glanced at Gu Zhun's trembling hand on his lap.
In fact, Gu Zhun didn't know why he was nervous. He had never been so nervous when he went to see his father before. Maybe it's because she is a mother after all, so the blood relationship is stronger. Moreover, the biggest reason may be because—the mother will be less likely to compromise than the father, let her son marry another man.
"Are you worried about our affairs?" Zhang Heng asked. Gu Zhun nodded.
This is not surprising, no matter who they are, they should be concerned about the future of the two. But Gu Zhun has never worried about these things, because he doesn't care what other people think, because he is that kind of boy without three.
However, there is still the warmth and tenderness of his mother in his heart. he misses.
Back then, his father abandoned his mother, and it was the father's fault, not the mother's. Gu Zhun had no reason to resent his mother. Gu Zhun shouldn't try to keep his mother away.
He can't stop his mother from pursuing happiness other than his father's, because the father abandoned his mother.
So in the past few years, he still misses his mother very much, so he relies on Gu Li very much, and his sister is his mother. So that time, the boss of the scumbag lied to Gu Li's feelings, he would rather take the risk to beat up the scumbag to vent his anger for his sister.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Zhang Heng comforted Gu Zhun with that warm smile.
Gu Zhun returned with a faint smile: "Well, I know."
I know, with you by my side, I won't be afraid. Seven years ago, it was true; seven years later, it is still true.
"I know… "
The caravan finally stopped in front of a luxurious three-story villa, and the garden was astonishingly large. It seems that after the divorce, Gu Zhun's mother really married into a wealthy family!
Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun got out of the car, and took some souvenirs from the car. Looking at the souvenir wrapped in a red gift box, Gu Zhun felt a little worried. Mother has already married into such a wealthy family that can be compared to the strength of the Zhang family, will she look down on the gifts they bought in the supermarket on the roadside? And the packaging is still in bright red, will my mother dislike the old-fashioned one
When Zhang Heng rang the doorbell, he held Gu Zhun's hand tightly: "I'm here."
"Um… "
After about a few minutes, someone came out, opened a little gap in the wire door, poked his head out and asked, "Who are you looking for?" Zhang Heng guessed that this person was the housekeeper of the house from his appearance. roles like this.
So Zhang Heng replied instead of Gu Zhun: "We are looking for the wife of this family—Li Xiaoyue."
The butler heard that the person was looking for his wife, so he looked them up and down. The housekeeper didn't want to let them in. Although these two people are very handsome and good-looking, the gift bag in their hands is a little... a little... um... just...
Anyway...
It's just rustic...
One word is - "soil".
"If you want to talk about dirt, just say it... Although I think it's really dirt..." Zhang Heng thought this way in his heart, but his mouth
Still politely, he nodded and bowed to the housekeeper. In other places, especially in local cities where the Zhang family's influence has not reached the center, he can't show his face.
Later, it was Mr. Butler who stepped up and saw the RV parked behind Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun, and then took a closer look, and found that it was a high-end luxury brand. He immediately had doubts about the identities of Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun.
But what if? So he didn't dare to be negligent, and just welcomed his wife to have a look.
So, the butler brought Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun to the living room of the villa. A woman in fluffy silk pajamas sat on the sofa, leisurely picked up the teacup, took a sip and put it down. Then he teased the little white dog lying beside him...
This is Madam... Is it Gu Zhun's mother
Zhang Heng was amazed, he didn't expect that Gu Zhun's mother, who came from a poor family, would develop a stable personality in the later years, like a lady who grew up in a wealthy family...
"Ma'am, there are two people outside who want to see you."
Madam stroked the little white dog's fur, then raised her hand, waved and said, "You bring them over."
"Yes." The housekeeper made a gesture of invitation, so Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun followed the housekeeper to the sofa opposite his wife and sat down.
At this time, the madam had her eyes closed, and she didn't raise her eyes at the first sight, so she didn't know that sitting opposite her was her eight-year-old son—Gu Zhun.
Li Xiaoyue just asked: "Are you looking for me or my husband?"
After Li Xiaoyue married a wealthy family, many people naturally wanted to climb up, whether it was in business or family affairs. At the beginning, Li Xiaoyue would entertain her warmly, but gradually, when she knew that these people came to her because they coveted her husband's property and influence.
Li Xiaoyue, who was born in a poor family, also began to hide her innocence and hospitality, and became tactful. After these ten years, she also began to become like the noble ladies around her, knowing how to deal with these problems, and gradually grew into a good wife for her husband.
She and her current husband gave birth to a daughter, plus the son born to his current husband and ex-wife, they raised a total of two children.
Zhang Heng has investigated all these. But Zhang Heng looked around, but he didn't see his daughter and son. It's the weekend, so he doesn't go to school, right? After doing the math, it seems that Li Xiaoyue's daughter is now in junior high school, and her husband's son born to his ex-wife has already graduated and started working. It seems that he is not far from Gu Zhun's age.
Zhang Heng recalled the information he had read before, and he began to feel empty after reading it. He didn't know how to answer his wife's words. Fortunately, Gu Zhun spoke up first, otherwise Li Xiaoyue would suspect that the two people in front of him must have ghosts in their hearts and feel guilty. , so I dare not speak.
"for you."
"...why?" Li Xiaoyue opened her eyes, suddenly she was curious who came to be so cheeky.
When she opened her eyes, she found that the boy in front of her was a little shorter and weaker... so familiar...
But, no way...
Such an impossible thought suddenly flashed in her mind... But... He is really familiar... His tone of voice, even his appearance.
Although she has not seen her own son for more than ten years, as a mother, how can she forget her son's face
"Why... and... you are..." Li Xiaoyue, who was still aura strong at the beginning, began to be curious, eager to know whether the person sitting opposite was him...
Although she had
Countless times in his dreams, he thought that Gu Zhun would come to her, but after waiting for more than ten years, Gu Zhun never came. Well, since we can't see each other again, just forget about it like this. So Li Xiaoyue also gradually stopped looking forward to Gu Zhun's appearance and reunion with Gu Zhun...
What was once thought impossible is now happening suddenly. Really, there was a man who looked a lot like Gu Zhun standing in front of her and said he was here for her.
Li Xiaoyue looked at Gu Zhun and didn't know what to say... Gu Zhun said coldly: "... Your son came to look for you, there is no need for a reason."
……………………………
Yes, there is indeed no need for a reason.
But don't you hate me
Yes, "Don't you hate me?" Li Xiaoyue asked tremblingly, it could be seen that her whole body was trembling.
The butler just now has retreated tactfully since Li Xiaoyue started asking questions, leaving time for Gu Zhun and Zhang Heng to chat with their wife in a private space.
"... It's only natural that you would leave your father, right?"
Li Xiaoyue had nothing to say, indeed. Back then, if that incident hadn't happened, that man, Gu Zhun's father, hadn't said "Let's get a divorce" ruthlessly, and she might still be in that cramped little house, the wife of the Gu family, the wife of Gu Lihe Gu Zhun's mother... everything is different.
But he said it...
He doesn't want her... He wants to divorce himself...
She is a woman, and she also needs to find someone to rely on. So remarrying a wealthy family is helpless.
"Do you understand me?..."
Gu Zhun nodded.
Li Xiaoyue smiled gratifiedly, put the little white dog aside, stood up by herself, and walked in front of Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun. To show politeness, Gu Zhun also stood up. Before Li Xiaoyue could say another word, Gu Zhun hugged Li Xiaoyue, his mother.
"..." Although Li Xiaoyue was puzzled, she still raised the corners of her mouth and smiled in relief, and said softly, "What's wrong?"
"...No," Gu Zhun buried his head in Li Xiaoyue's shoulder, like a little child who needs the warmth of his mother's embrace, "I've always... missed you..."
"Me too… "
Li Xiaoyue left Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun to live here for a day or two, because her husband happened to be on a business trip abroad, and it would take a few days before he could return home, and her daughter was also boarding at the school, and her son was there all day long. I work outside, so I don't have time to go home.
Li Xiaoyue brought out stacks of dishes happily: "It's really great that you are willing to stay!"
Every time a dish is put down, Zhang Heng will take away the biggest meatball in the dish with lightning speed.
"..." Li Xiaoyue looked at Zhang Heng's gluttonous appearance, and laughed so hard that she almost burst into tears, "Eat slowly, eat slowly..."
Li Xiaoyue seemed to be able to recall that when Gu Zhun was eight years old, he would often bring his little friends home to eat. At this time, it seems to be the same as that time, so warm and warm.
Zhang Heng seemed to have thought of something suddenly, so he bit a shrimp and raised his head to report to Li Xiaoyue: "Auntie, I want to marry Gu Zhun."
If Zhang Heng, or Gu Zhun, is either a girl or a boy who casually utters childish words that are private for life, it will be very cute and interesting to the parents.
However, Zhang Heng and Gu Zhun are boys, no matter what happens, they will never become girls.
