Gu Nianzhi recalled the results of her, Huo Shaoheng, and Lu Yuan's investigation. At that time, she had speculated that it was because Qin Suwen's family's car accident had become a hot topic in society and caused a huge reaction.
Under those circumstances, the price to pay to secretly kill Qin Suwen was too high.
Gu Nianzhi said thoughtfully, "The other party was very cautious and didn't want to expose themselves. That was why they didn't continue to pursue Qin Suwen."
Lu Jin nodded with a smile. "That's what I think! If they wanted to continue the murder, the cost would be too high, and it would probably not be worth it. "
Gu Nianzhi resisted the urge to roll her eyes and tried her best to be pleasant. "Dad, did you find out who the mastermind was?"
Lu Jin shook his head without hesitation. "I wasn't even ten years old at that time. How could I be that powerful? And my specialty isn't criminal investigation. "
"Really?" Gu Nianzhi's lips twitched. "What happened after that? When you grew up and had the ability, you didn't pursue it? "
Lu Jin's expression became melancholic as he muttered, "Later, she became famous, and people from all walks of life came to visit her. Even the public relations department of the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital came forward and said that they would donate a sum of money for Suwen's burn treatment and postoperative recovery. "
"Burn treatment and postoperative recovery?" Gu Nianzhi's heart skipped a beat. "Does it include the cost of cosmetic surgery?"
"Burn treatment, in a broad sense, includes the cost of cosmetic surgery," Lu Jin said affirmatively. Lu Jin said affirmatively, "Later, Su Wen's burns passed the critical stage and she began to recover. After that, she was transferred to another hospital."
"She underwent skin grafts and facial cosmetic surgery there to remove all traces of the burn." Lu Jin sighed. "After she recovered, she left the hospital and entered an orphanage. After she went to school, she was very outstanding, so outstanding that she was only slightly inferior to me. "
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
It was tiring to have a father who liked to show off his intelligence at all times.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head and ignored Lu Jin's almost conceited attitude. She said in a low voice, "You've been paying attention to her all these years?"
Lu Jin nodded, then shook his head. "I didn't. I just checked her condition regularly to make sure that she was still alive and that no one was causing trouble for her."
"… What happened next?"
"Later, she went to university. On the first day of school, she met He Chengjian." Lu Jin recalled the situation at that time and felt a little sad.
He said, "Actually, I went to talk to her first that day, but she didn't remember me at all."
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
"Have you spoken to her before?"
"No." Lu Jin looked away unconfidently. "But I always accompany her. When she's not unconscious, she'll look at me. I know she should know who I am."
Gu Nianzhi felt that something was wrong. She opened her mouth but couldn't think of what to say.
Lu Yuan said gently from the side, "… She has gone through so many surgeries, and the recovery period for the burns was very painful. It's already good that she can survive it. What does it matter if she remembers you or not? As long as she lives well, you have no regrets. "
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help glancing at Lu Yuan. She thought to herself that it was no wonder these two completely different people could be friends for so many years. It turned out that they both had the same sad story …
Lu Jin lowered his head and his shoulders slumped. He leaned back on the sofa and said weakly, "Don't comfort me. I know I'm not good enough. She made the right choice. You haven't seen He Chengjian when he was young. He was even more handsome than He Zhichu now. I think I'm also a handsome man, but I'm still a little worse than He Chengjian. "
Lu Jin stretched out his right thumb and index finger and gestured at a distance the size of a grain of rice. "… But it's this little bit that determines that I can't be with Suwen."
Gu Nianzhi let out a long sigh.
Lu Jin finally admitted his feelings for Qin Suwen.
She sat over and gently held Lu Jin's hand. An extremely gentle smile appeared on her face. She said, "… But you and Qin Suwen have a smart and lovely daughter. That's me, so you're no worse than He Chengjian at all."
Lu Jin nodded subconsciously and grunted. "Of course our daughter is more promising than their son."
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Nianzhi in horror. He said in a trembling voice, "Nianzhi, you even have to trick me! You're too much! Believe it or not, I'll die right now! "
He struggled to break free from Gu Nianzhi's hand and covered his face in shame as he tried to escape.
In a moment of desperation, Gu Nianzhi couldn't care less about anything else. She flew over and hugged Lu Jin's leg tightly. She started crying. "Dad, do you think my birth is a disgrace to others by doing this? Is that why you haven't told me who my biological mother is? "
Lu Jin froze. He held onto the door frame with one foot in and one foot out of the room. He was in a dilemma.
Gu Nianzhi's grievance of not being acknowledged had been accumulating in her heart for a long time. Today, it finally erupted.
She let go of Lu Jin's leg and stood up from the ground. Her hands clenched into fists, she cried at Lu Jin, "Since you don't want me to have a biological mother, I don't want a biological mother! I don't even want a biological father! I was originally a test subject in your laboratory, so you don't have to be my father! I don't need it! "
She pushed Lu Jin away and ran out first.
Lu Jin was stunned for a moment and quickly chased after her, but Gu Nianzhi had already closed the elevator.
The number of the elevator dropped rapidly. Lu Jin was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He slapped the elevator button desperately, but the elevator didn't stop.
Lu Yuan walked out and leaned against the door frame with his arms crossed. He said calmly, "Why are you doing this? I think Nianzhi is right. You just think that she has a bad background and tarnishes the reputation of the goddess in your heart. You're not even afraid of death, but you've tried to die time and time again for your goddess. I won't stop you. Your own daughter can't even stand it, let alone an outsider like me. "
These words pierced Lu Jin's heart like a sharp thorn. Even though he was a patient with serious interpersonal disorder and could completely ignore other people's words, he couldn't ignore Lu Yuan's words.
He turned around in a panic and said repeatedly, "No! I don't think Nianzhi has a bad background! She's my biological daughter! Why would I think she has a bad background?! "
"But you refuse to tell me who her biological mother is …" Lu Yuan said calmly, "This is the biggest denial. Besides, are you sure you treat her as your biological daughter? A person who can't even talk to his biological mother is indeed not worthy of being a father. "
Lu Jin had never expected that his actions to protect Qin Suwen would deeply hurt Gu Nianzhi's heart.
He was so anxious that he was running around in circles. "I really didn't mean that … I just … I just … it's all my fault … it's all my fault!"
Lu Jin had never felt so stupid before.
His IQ, which he was so proud of, couldn't help him find a way to get the best of both worlds.
Lu Jin was so anxious that he banged his head against the wall.
Very quickly, his forehead turned red, and a big bump appeared on it.
Lu Yuan shook his head and said coldly, "It's useless for you to bang your head against the wall here. Nianzhi has already run out. The more you bang, the more time you waste, and the further Nianzhi will run. "
Lu Jin stopped banging his head against the wall and glared at Lu Yuan. "Why don't you go after Nianzhi?! When Huo Shaoheng comes back and finds out that Nianzhi is gone, he'll definitely fall out with you! "
"You don't have to worry about that, Shareholder Lu." Lu Yuan stepped aside leisurely and held the door handle. "I'm going to bed. You two father and daughter have a good talk. I won't get involved."
Lu Yuan closed the door in front of Lu Jin.
Lu Jin glared at the door and kicked it hatefully. He quickly returned to his room and turned on the GPS system on his computer to find Gu Nianzhi's location.
It turned out that she hadn't run far. She was just staying in the park near the neighborhood.
Lu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and rushed downstairs with his phone to look for Gu Nianzhi.
His mind was still a little confused.
Because he had never thought that Qin Suwen and Gu Nianzhi, the two most important women in his life, would be on opposing sides.
In order to protect Qin Suwen, he had inevitably hurt Gu Nianzhi.
But if Gu Nianzhi was satisfied, Qin Suwen's reputation would be destroyed along with her death.
Lu Jin really didn't want this to happen, but he couldn't think of any other way to untie this knot.
..
Gu Nianzhi held her breath and ran out of the neighborhood. She went straight to the park near the neighborhood to relax.
It was already late, and the moonlight in the park was like a veil. The dark green trees carried a faint mist, and the air was extremely fresh.
Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath, but the pent-up frustration in her chest still lingered.
She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and sat down alone on the stone bench in the park.
Not far from her, there was a small children's playground.
In a square sand table, there was a red and green slide and two swings made of brown bark.
A few children in shorts and sweatshirts were playing in the sand with small buckets and shovels.
Their mother stood by the side, watching them play gently.
Gu Nianzhi didn't expect to see such a scene. Her nose ached and tears flowed down her face again.
Just as she was about to continue wiping her tears with the back of her hand, a folded handkerchief was handed over.
Gu Nianzhi followed the handkerchief and saw He Zhichu standing in front of her.
Gu Nianzhi was very surprised. She looked up at him and said, "Young Master He, why are you here? How's your father's condition? "
He Zhichu sat down beside her and continued to hand the handkerchief to her. He said calmly, "He's already been sent to the VIP intensive care unit. The doctors checked the surgery and said that it was done very well. There's basically no need to worry about rejection, but he hasn't woken up yet. "
He added, "I was worried about you, so I came to take a look."
Actually, he had been waiting here ever since he had settled He Chengjian.
He sat in the car until it was dark. He wanted to go back, but he happened to see Gu Nianzhi running out of the neighborhood.
Gu Nianzhi took the handkerchief and sniffed her nose. She said in a muffled voice, "… That person said he's fine, so he's fine. Believe me. "
He Zhichu nodded. "Yes, I believe you."
Gu Nianzhi felt terrible and couldn't help crying again.
He Zhichu turned to look at her for a while. After a moment, he placed his hand on her shoulder.
He threw the handkerchief aside with his other hand and took out a pack of tissues to wipe her tears. He said gently, "What's wrong? Why are you crying here alone? "
He was as amiable as a big brother.
And he was most likely her biological big brother.
Gu Nianzhi no longer avoided suspicion. She pulled He Zhichu's sleeve and covered her face. She sobbed and said, "Young Master He, tell me, is my birth a disgrace to your mother?"
