"But the good times didn't last long." The old man said, knocking out the tobacco in his hand and replacing it with a new one.
"My wife was diagnosed with uremia when she was a freshman in Ye Shu. At that time, it was a money-burning disease."
Ye Yuwei suddenly became uneasy. She could feel that this was a turning point in her father's life.
"This was a bolt from the blue for our family. Even if the store sold it, it wouldn't be enough to treat my wife. At that time, Ye Shu suddenly got back one million, saying it was money for my wife's medical treatment."
"One million?" Ye Yuwei whispered. The one million at that time can be said to be 10 million in this period. How could his father, a college student, get so much money
"Yes, one million." The old man said, lighting up the tobacco again, "I beat and scolded him that day, so I asked him where the money came from. Ye Shu, this kid, doesn't like to talk, no matter how I beat him He scolded me, didn’t say anything, and just said the money was for his mother’s medical treatment.”
"After that, Ye Shu left." Gu Juexi said in a deep voice, "Then he never went back."
"Yes, I left after that. I said I was going abroad to study, and I took Ye Di with me." The old man chuckled, with a touch of bitterness.
"What did he do?" Ye Yuwei was even trembling when she said this. He was afraid that his father had done something illegal.
"He left, but he would send you money back every year, but he never wrote his name." Gu Juexi said again, "The year he left was forty years ago."
Ye Yuwei suddenly raised her head and looked at Gu Juexi.
The old man paused while smoking, and finally smiled, "I have told you everything I can tell you. I understand this child Ye Shu, and he cannot do bad things."
"But where is he now?" Ye Yuwei said hurriedly, her breathing became a little more urgent as she watched the old man stand up.
The old man's body trembled, and he held the table with one hand, "Girl, your dad has been calling me dad for ten or twenty years, and I want to know where he is more than you do." The old man said, knocking on his own chest, "Okay, let's go, don't come here anymore, no one will welcome you here."
Ye Yuwei still wanted to ask, but was stopped by Gu Juexi.
"Weiwei." Gu Juexi said in a deep voice, telling her to stop asking.
Ye Yuwei pursed her lips tightly, and finally gave up and continued to ask.
Ye Yuwei pushed Gu Juexi's hand away, and then slowly knelt down in front of the old man: "Grandpa, no matter where he is, I will find him. Thank you today. I also thank you on behalf of my father and my aunt for your grace of adoption."
The old man waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go, tit for tat, the catastrophe is over, and everything will be understood."
Gu Juexi bent down and helped Ye Yuwei stand up.
But when the two turned around, the old man suddenly said: "Ye Shu is the only girl. I know you are a capable person, but if you betray this girl Ye Shu, I can't let you go."
Ye Yuwei was puzzled, but Gu Juexi's eyes were deep and she held Ye Yuwei's hand tightly, "Don't worry, old man, I will definitely live up to her in this life."
The old man waved again and asked the two of them to leave, but what he said back was confusing: "A hurdle that cannot be overcome is a lifetime of disaster."
When Ye Yuwei wanted to look back again, she was already pulled away from here by Gu Juexi.
