Chapter 64 Fatal Love Brain
"I'm wondering whether or not to let Ruqin move out," Gu Qingheng said, revealing the dilemma her parents were facing. "I can't find out anything about Changxi's situation over the years, but I can find out about his experiences with that human trafficker couple before he was three years old."
Gu Qingfeng spoke first, "I disagree. Chang Xi's disappearance has nothing to do with Ru Qin. She's not a human trafficker. The Gu family adopted her from the orphanage. Now they're sending her away again. What kind of behavior is that?"
The parents, who are also concerned about their children's families, are finding it difficult to choose between them, as both are their beloved children.
They searched for Qingdai for many years, but Ruqin's companionship over the years was not in vain.
Gu Qingheng clenched her fists and pulled an old photograph from a book. "I went to see that human trafficker couple and their son. Qingdai didn't have a good life before she was three years old, not a good one at all."
The couple stole her only to offer her as a sacrifice to the Five Sacred Mountains Gods, hoping to bring them a son. Because Qingdai had a good destiny, their family's income soared during those three years.
Qingdai, however, did not receive any better treatment as a result; instead, they abused her even more severely. She was always treated as a servant whom their son could beat and scold at will.
Gu Qingfeng looked at the photo of the child, who was as thin as a kitten, and was speechless. He felt a lump in his throat, as if being pricked by needles.
Gu Hongwen's hand trembled slightly as he took the photo.
Tang Wan gently stroked the little girl in the corner of the photo with her left hand.
So this is what Qingdai looked like when she was three years old. She was dirty, and her big, round amber eyes looked pitiful on her thin face.
Gu Hongwen understood. "That's why Qingdai was angry when she saw us. She felt that we hadn't contacted her all these years, and had even found someone else to replace her. Seeing Ruqin reminded her of the suffering she had endured."
Gu Qingheng was silent for two seconds. "Later, when we were preparing for the sacrifice, a middle-aged Taoist priest suddenly appeared and took Qingdai away. For the next eighteen years, I couldn't find anything about Qingdai. I think someone must have been able to hide her information."
However, Qingdai has a friend from high school named Xia Qingli, the girl who appeared at Qingdai's house that day. Perhaps we can find some clues by investigating her. Besides, the only other person we can get information about is Qingdai's agent, Lanlan, who has been in contact with her for the past two years. That's about it.
"Lan Lan is my company's agent, I'll go ask her," Gu Qingfeng said, taking on the task.
After so much discussion, the Gu family still couldn't make a final decision.
Gu Ruqin, who had been standing at the door listening for an unknown amount of time, quietly left.
She simply stood quietly in her room for two minutes.
I made a surprising decision.
She wants to move out of the Gu family home.
She had enjoyed the Gu family's wealth and luxury for twenty-two years, while Chang Xi had suffered alone and miserable for so many years.
Repaying debts is justified.
She had to return what belonged to Chang Xi.
The Gu family did not see Gu Ruqin early in the morning. The nanny hurriedly came out of her room with a letter she had left behind.
It read: "Mom and Dad, eldest brother and second brother, this is the last time Ruqin will call you that. Don't feel bad. I'm already very lucky to have lived a life of luxury in the Gu family for twenty-two years."
Changxi has suffered a lot, you should take good care of her. I am just returning to my original place, so there is no need to worry or fret.
Ruqin heard everything that was said last night.
Gu Qingheng folded the note and put it in her pocket, comforting her parents, "Mom and Dad, we always have to make this choice."
The two brothers walked out of the house.
"But Ruqin is also our sister," Gu Qingfeng still couldn't bear to part with her. "Won't she resent us?"
"No one can do things perfectly. Second brother, you and Qingdai are twins. You were too young to remember when she was stolen. You grew up with Ruqin and your relationship deepened afterward. I can understand that," Gu Qingheng said, her eyes deep. "But Qingdai was someone I took out to play with."
If I hadn't taken her out, she wouldn't have been targeted by human traffickers, wouldn't have been stolen, and wouldn't have been homeless for twenty-three years. I owe her a debt I can never repay in this lifetime.
If there must be a sinner, let it be Ruqin's resentment towards me.
"Brother, that's not what I meant," Gu Qingfeng patted his shoulder. "No one blames you. Qingdai is back now, so it's not too late."
The Gu family had already made all these decisions before even informing Chang Xi.
Meanwhile, she herself is still busy with Zou Wenjing's affairs.
"They're here," Xia Qingli said as she came downstairs to greet them. "They're already upstairs."
Chang Xi instructed, "Lu Wenli, go to the groom's side and find out what's going on. Focus on gathering information first, and don't take any action yet."
"Okay," Lu Wenli put on his sunglasses, and his playful, rich-boy air came through.
In the lounge, Zou Wenjing was already trying on her wedding dress.
Chang Xi blinked. This Miss Zou was quite pretty, with delicate features and an elegant demeanor. She looked like a wealthy heiress, with natural grace.
Why would a perfectly good swan fall for a toad?
"Qingli, is this your friend? Hello, my name is Zou Wenjing," she said, extending her right hand in a friendly smile.
"Hello, my name is Chang Xi," Chang Xi replied with a smile and gently shook hands.
A chill ran from Zou Wenjing's fingertips to her palm.
Zou Wenjing was surprised, "I know you, you've been trending a lot lately."
She glanced at me reproachfully and said, "Qingli, I've already told you. Wu Yong is a good person. He didn't do anything to me. We're about to get married, and you still had someone come to check if I'm possessed. If Wu Yong finds out, he'll be so upset."
Xia Qingli was speechless, unable to find a rebuttal, for if she did, the two would start arguing again.
Chang Xi interjected at the opportune moment, "Miss Zou has misunderstood. Qingli didn't come to me to sow discord between you and your husband; she has already realized her mistake. She came to me this time hoping I could make a marriage compendium for you two."
I wish you both a happy and harmonious future.
Xia Qingli nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes."
Zou Wenjing smiled shyly, "I misunderstood you, I'm sorry, Qingli. Please sit down and help me look at the wedding dress."
Chang Xi and the other person took their seats.
Her gaze fell on the red rope on Zou Wenjing's left wrist, where wisps of yin energy emanated and coiled around Zou Wenjing's pulse.
There's definitely something fishy going on.
On the other side, Lu Wenli had already struck up a conversation with Wu Yong.
"I'm Wenjing's friend, from the Lu family. She asked me to help you look at suits," Lu Wenli shook his hand, glancing up at the man's shoulder. The hand was withered and made a slight sound when it moved.
The hand slowly climbed up Wu Yong's shoulder, and a pair of dark eyes with no whites emerged.
Ah!
A sharp crackling sound came from Lu Wenli's head, but he dared not show the slightest flaw on his face.
"Hello," Wu Yong smiled amicably, inviting him to help him look at suits. "Which of these suits do you think would be the most suitable?"
Lu Wenli had no choice but to move closer and look at suits alongside Wu Yong.
The humanoid monster behind Wu Yong seemed to sense something, turned its head, and slowly approached Lu Wenli, sniffing around his head.
Lu Wenli felt a cold wind blow across his neck, raising goosebumps. He dared not move an inch, much less turn his head to look. He was afraid that if he turned his head and saw the monster's face, he would be so frightened that he would faint on the spot.
