When You’re Gone - Chapter 214

Hearing the news of Liang Shu’s disappearance, it seemed like a sky of thunder fell on Wen Mingting’s head. She gritted her teeth and asked him, “How could A Shu disappear for no reason? Jiujiu is still here, she can be there. Where to go?”

Gu Hansheng is also confused now. The reason why he chose to tell Wen Mingting is that he hopes she can help take good care of Jiujiu, but he still chooses to keep the specific details secret.

The temperature was a little low in the middle of the night, and he was only wearing a thin shirt, and people stayed up for so many days, even if he was a hardened body at this time, he shouldn’t be able to hold it anymore.

He raised his hand to cover his lips and coughed softly for several times. His face was a little pale, and the traces of the color of his eyes were thick and gray, and he looked even more emaciated than Wen Mingting, an elderly person.

Wen Mingting felt distressed and worried. He looked at him and said, “Have you never taken a break? Han Sheng, you can’t go on like this. We don’t know what’s going on like A Shu. Jiujiu is so young, you can Can’t fall down.”

The man shook his hand and coughed again. Then he said, “It’s okay, I’m going to be busy with A Shu for the time being. Excuse me for helping me watch Jiujiu during this time.”

Wen Mingting still looked very worried and said, “What the **** is going on with A Shu? The Gu family has been well-known in the business community these years. We rarely interact with irrelevant people in private, let alone cause trouble, so why did we get into this? What’s the matter?”

Gu Hansheng’s eyes darkened when he heard the words, and the bottom of his eyes became deep, like a vast ocean with calm waves on the surface, but in fact, the ocean floor had already churned up huge waves.

He said, “A Shu will be safe, don’t worry too much.”

Huo Qin is now in his hands, expecting that Huo Qiting has to be a little bit jealous and can’t act rashly, then he still has time.

That night, Gu Hansheng took a bath and changed into clean clothes. He stayed with Liang Jiujiu the rest of the time.

Perhaps Liang Jiujiu is more familiar with Gu Hansheng. With him by his side, the little girl still sleeps more peacefully.

Gu Hansheng also took this opportunity to make up for it.

By the next morning, he was going to see Yu Shenzhi, when Liang Jiujiu was still asleep, he only thought about driving away from Gu’s house for two seconds.

Yu Shenzhi’s people, along with Gu Hansheng’s people, followed those routes one after another this week. Most of the relationships were used, and the ships that they followed were checked one by one, but they still didn’t.

There was no trace of Liang Shu on board, as if she had never left.

Looking at the documents passed by, Gu Hansheng’s expression was gloomy, his temples jumped suddenly, and something began to come out.

Yu Shenzhi took a pen and then drew a picture on the paper, curled his eyebrows and put forward his own thoughts, “Those people you sent are not vegetarian, and there were not many ships going out that day. Passenger ships and freighters were tracked down, but none of them, I I wonder if she didn’t leave here at all?”

Gu Hansheng lifted his steps and walked outside without saying a word.

Behind him, Yu Shenzhi caught up with him, “Hey, I’m serious with you, if this is the case, we…”

Gu Hansheng stopped, turned his head and looked at Yu Shenzhi blankly, with a serious and solemn expression. He said, “The situation may be more complicated and tricky than you think. They should obviously stay in Yucheng for two or three days. To confuse the line of sight, and then leave.”

The crux of all this is that it took him too long to receive the news that Liang Shu was missing that day, and he gave the other party enough time to prepare.

Huo Qiting obviously had anticipated it, so he bought people from Wencheng with money early and played a good show that made him have to leave Yucheng.

When Yu Shenzhi heard him say this, his whole person was instantly discouraged, “If this is the case, then things are in trouble.”

Gu Hansheng walked towards his car and said, “I have arrested his person. I believe he will not feel much better than me at the moment. If anything happens to A Shu, his people will probably spend ten times as much. To pay it back.”

“Hey, hey, don’t mess around, we have to be law-abiding…”

With a “bang”, the door was closed, Yu Shenzhi looked at the car quickly disappearing from his line of sight, and fell into thought.

…

Huo Qiting contacted Gu Hansheng as soon as he returned to Yucheng.

On the phone, Huo Qiting said, “Show me Huo Qin.”

Gu Hansheng was a little impatient, “Where is she?”

“Okay, let’s make an appointment to see you somewhere.”

Huo Qiting was unable to contact Lu Jinsheng, so he postponed the meeting with Gu Hansheng until a week later.

Gu Hansheng disagreed at all and reduced the time to three days.

“Mr. Gu, now I hold the initiative in my hand. It depends on which one of us has a harder heart. You have been looking for someone for five years. I think you should not see her being wronged a little bit.”

But Gu Hansheng is not so foolish, “Let her talk to me.”

“I’m afraid not.”

Huo Qiting said, “Gu Hansheng, this matter is over. Don’t want to continue investigating what happened in the past. There is no second Su Yan in this world. The person who hurt your father may be uneasy and kind, but your father is definitely not innocent. .”

“Your surname Huo, Cao Jian, really wants to escape the punishment of the law?”

“See you in a week, and I want Huo Qin to come back from your hands in a complete preparation.”

…

It was also on the day when Huo Qin was captured by Gu Hansheng, Huo Jingqiang, who had been sleeping for many years, woke up.

The vegetative person went from a long sleep to a sudden awakening. During this period, it was easy to die suddenly, but Huo Jingqiang’s body was not comparable to that of a young man, and it took almost nine deaths to get his life back.

She was luckier than Su Yan. When Su Yan woke up that year, because of her special blood type, the hospital did not have enough panda blood stock, so she could not be rescued in the end.

Today’s Huo Jingqiang’s body functions are not as good as before, and his muscles are atrophied so badly that he can’t stand and walk, and can only sit in a wheelchair.

She was completely awake the day after the operation.

This was supposed to be a family moment, but apart from a few members of the Huo family, Huo Qiting and Huo Qin were not seen in the ward.

Huo Qiting and the people around Huo Qin were hiding from Huo Jingqiang, and did not dare to tell her about Huo Qin’s kidnapping, for fear that she would lose control of her emotions and what would happen then.

Huo Jingqiang was a personal character when she was young. She was never seen by everyone in the Huo family as a strong woman in the Huo family. To say an exaggeration, she came up with blood and tears.

That strength was carved into the bones, and even now, it has not dissipated.

She pressed for news except that Gu Hansheng had taken Huo Qin away.

It was still in the ward. She was sitting on the hospital bed with her back leaning on the pillow. Hearing the news, she slowly closed her eyes, her expression was cold and joking, as if she was laughing at fate.

After lying down for so many years, the major and minor injuries on his body have healed, and now that the person has also woke up, Huo Jingqiang forced to be discharged from the hospital.

No one dared to listen to her words, and they took her home.

But only one day later, Huo Jingqiang made a private plane to Yucheng ready.

The assistant and the doctor couldn’t say anything, Huo Jingqiang even threatened them not to tell Huo Qiting.

Huo Qiting was also very busy at home, and he was still trying to take Huo Qin away before negotiating with Gu Hansheng.

Two days before Gu Hansheng and Huo Qiting met.

In Gu’s house, Wen Mingting received an unfamiliar call.

She had just coaxed Liang Jiujiu to sleep, but Liang Shu hadn’t been found yet. Now that everyone is a soldier, and the other party did not speak, she subconsciously became vigilant, and her voice became much stricter, “Who is it?”

“It’s me, Huo Jingqiang.”

When this long-lasting voice reached Wen Mingting’s ears, she had an illusion that she felt like a world away.

In those years, she followed Gu Hong in Shengdun City to witness the relationship between good friend Qi Jin and Huo Jingqiang from the first acquaintance, to love, to staying with each other, to the final destiny.

Huo Jingqiang has almost disappeared in her world since Qi Jin died.

Even in the painful situation back then, she listened to Gu Hong’s words and didn’t hate anyone. She just guarded the cold and guarded the Gu family with peace of mind.

She didn’t want to pursue it. After all, the person who died was her husband. She was just to fulfill Gu Hong’s wishes. Gu Hong once said: When is the time for redress.

But after more than ten years, why did she come to Huo Jingqiang?

All kinds of thoughts flooded into his mind, Wen Mingting said lukewarmly: “May I ask what’s the matter?”

Here at Wen Mingting, Huo Jingqiang is just a person who has had a holiday but has not been in contact for many years.

Huo Jingqiang’s voice is a little gritty, her tone sounds like an old man, her posture is much lower than Wen Mingting’s, “I have come to Yucheng, can we meet?”

…

That afternoon, Wen Mingting instructed Liang Qing and Qu Yu to take good care of Jiujiu, and he went out with the driver.

Liang Qing was worried at first, but Wen Mingting insisted not to bring anyone with the driver, and Liang Qing couldn’t say anything.

Not far away, it’s a tea house.

Wen Mingting went to the appointment alone, and the driver was waiting for her outside.

Huo Jingqiang had been waiting for her in the private room for a long time. Wen Mingting walked in under the guidance of the staff. The door of the antique teahouse was an ink-colored landscape screen. She walked around the screen and walked inside.

The place by the window is the table, and Huo Jingqiang sits on one of them.

The room was very quiet, burning incense, and a faint fragrance lingered in the room.

Hearing the footsteps of the people coming, Huo Jingqiang looked sideways towards the door. The waiter opened the bamboo curtain for Wen Mingting. After Wen she walked in, the waiter left.

Huo Jingqiang didn’t get up, but nodded flatly towards Wen Mingting.

Perceiving that the latter looked at the wheelchair under her with alert but without a trace, Huo Jingqiang said, “I have been lying in bed for many years, and that’s it when I wake up.” After a pause, she looked at Wen Mingting facing her. Sit down and continue to speak, “Long time no see.”

A charcoal fire was burning in the stove, the hot water in the teapot was steaming, and a waiter took a good time to come in and make tea.

There are tea leaves in a kiln-fired celadon cup. The person who makes the tea makes the tea first, waits for some time to filter out the first tea, and then adds appropriate water to it. At this time, the aroma of the tea has been completely released. Open.

Wen Mingting looked at the heat slowly rising in the cup and said, “It’s been a long time, and after all, it’s been more than ten years.”

Huo Jingqiang was in no mood to eat tea. She raised her eyes and looked out the window. Even in the season of autumn and winter, the green bamboos outside are always green. She said: “We are separated by the man I love, so I can’t be like an old friend. I call you, but when I see you this time, I do have something to ask.”

Wen Mingting didn’t speak, waiting for her to continue talking.

“I’m very sorry about Gu Hong.”

November is coming, it is already the season of frost, and the temperature is getting lower and lower, Wen Mingting’s eyelids wince, she thinks that it should be the wind.

“But I don’t regret the decision that year, and I will die with him.”

The hand holding the teacup shook, Wen Mingting’s face was angry, and his tone was indifference and indifference. “You Huo Jingqiang is accustomed to doing things in my own way, but that is a living life, and it is also a pillar of a family. Just because of your impulse, this Everything is ruined.”

During those gloomy days, Wen Mingting didn’t even dare to think about it.

When Gu Hong passed away, she was heartbroken and confused all day long.

At that time, Gu Hansheng was only in his early twenties, but he was forced to carry such a big burden on the Gu family. Not only that, he had to comfort her in turn while enduring back pain… The thought of this made Wen Mingting’s heart hurt.

And all this is thanks to Huo Jingqiang.

Huo Jingqiang pinched the palm of her hand, lowered her eyes, pursed her lips and pulled out a mocking smile, she raised her head to look at Wen Mingting, and slowed down her tone: “Then do you think he is innocent? Ask yourself, is your husband innocent?”

“He is your favorite husband, the father of your son, and the perfect person in your heart… But he is the one who ruined my life twice. After Qi Jin died, I ran away. Ten years later , I once again met someone who could accompany me for the rest of my life, and he ruined me again.”

“Huo Jingqiang, don’t be too paranoid, Gu Hong has never harmed anyone.” Wen Mingting said sharply.

Huo Jingqiang smiled and sneered: “What’s the difference? Looking back now, I am a lady of a big family just like you. I could have lived arbitrarily in this life, but my life has been rotten from beginning to end, which is really ridiculous.”

Having said that, Huo Jingqiang’s face suddenly turned back, and she said, “But just like this, my fate is still joking with me. In that car accident, I became a vegetable, and I had nightmares when I was conscious. I understand that people always have to do for themselves. I pay the price for my actions, and I won’t regret my original actions, but I should atone for my sins.”

“You probably don’t know. Your son hated our Huo family for more than ten years without you knowing. I didn’t wake up before, so I don’t know. Now that I fulfill him, I will surrender and be willing to surrender for the rest of my life. Trapped in a cage, I only asked him to let go of his hatred and return the family to be clean. I also asked him to let my daughter go.”

Wen Mingting’s blood seemed to freeze until he heard the last word.

Had Han Sheng been investigating this all the time?

It has been more than ten years, it turns out that he has always known, and has not given up on tracing the truth.

Seeing the shock on Wen Mingting’s face, Huo Jingqiang knew that her conjecture should be true. She said too much and her lips were dry, so she took a sip of the tea in front of her.

The clear fragrance of tea spread in her breath, and she said, “Su Yan is a child I sponsored. Back then, I dedicated myself to death and left the recording. That thing is in her hands. If it weren’t for a serious car accident that year, she said. A vegetable, it is estimated that by that time your son has already figured out the whole thing.”

“And today, he took my daughter away. I only trouble you to let him let my daughter go, and I will keep my promise. I am similar to you, but the same person does not die. I will admit it in this life, but I don’t want this. It’s troublesome to involve the younger generation.”

When Huo Jingqiang was speaking, it was obvious that her spirit was not very good. Her body was still in the recovery period, and she was tired after speaking so much.

Wen Mingting held the cup with his fingers and asked her, “Why do you do this now?”

“At a certain time, people have to understand something. This is who I am now.” Huo Jingqiang looked very calm.

“I was shocked by my son’s patience and restraint. He would hide this thing so deeply and it would be beyond my expectation. If I had known…we were all half-divided people, I promised me at the beginning. My husband won’t be held accountable anymore, and it’s the same now. I’ll find a way for your daughter. As for you, I won’t intervene in what you want to do, but neither left nor right has anything to do with us. They can’t come back to those who have left.

…

Huo Jingqiang couldn’t hold it after Wen Mingting left. Her head rested on one of her shoulders with no energy, her eyes were about to be closed, and her eyes were dark and there was no light at all.

She was admitted to the hospital in Yucheng.

There were two full days left before the appointment between Gu Hansheng and Huo Qiting.

At noon that day, Gu Hansheng went back to Gu’s house and played with Liang Jiujiu for a while. The little girl hasn’t been arguing about seeing Liang Shu these days, but she has never been in a good mood, and her face is not as often as before. With a smile on his face, he always looked sullen.

After lunch, Gu Hansheng took her to read half of the children’s books, and then coaxed her to take a nap.

The man was sitting by the bed, holding a fairy tale book and novel in his hand, reading stories to her.

After reading the first story, Liang Jiujiu was still not asleep. She stared at Gu Hansheng’s handsome facial features, carefully observing everything from deep eyebrows to thin lips.

Gu Hansheng noticed something was wrong, he looked up at the little girl, reached out his hand to touch the top of her hair, and curled his lips, “What’s wrong?”

Liang Jiujiu grabbed his hand on the palm of his hand and rubbed it on his face again. The action was very intimate, but his expression and tone were like a little adult, “Uncle Gu, I have secretly looked in the mirror many times. “

He squeezed her hand and put the book aside, “What then?”

“I found out that I don’t look like you at all. My eyebrows and eyes don’t look like, noses don’t look like, mouths don’t look like…” She blinked, “Are you really my father?”

Gu Hansheng was stunned for a moment, then took his hand out of her hand and tucked the quilt on her body. “Many children are not like fathers or mothers.”

“Then I found out that except for the eyes of A Shu, I don’t look like anything else.”
