Grandpa San seemed to be trapped in memories, and the water in the cup was cold.

"Three Grandpa?" Gu Yanqiu said to remind him.

"Yeah." Grandpa San put down his water cup and shook his head and said, "At that time, there was no cell phone as convenient as contact. After I went home, I found that my elder brother and sister-in-law were not at home. I asked if I had seen my elder brother and sister-in-law in other places. They didn't know. Instead, they asked me indirectly about what the woman said on the table. I was very annoyed, so I simply stopped asking.

"I didn't sleep all night, and I always felt uneasy. I felt like something happened. On the first day, my elder brother and sister-in-law didn't come back, and the next day, but someone I didn't know came and found me and said that my elder brother and sister-in-law had a car accident. My elder brother died after failed rescue, and my elder sister-in-law was still in the hospital.

"I went to the hospital and received my elder brother's body and a compensation for the perpetrator. After my elder sister-in-law's injury healed, I gave her the money. After she moved home for a few days, she quietly left Yangqing Village. She didn't inform her of anyone, and I didn't know where she moved."

Grandpa San sighed: "I know why she left. The man is gone and her daughter is gone. All that remains in the village is sympathy and malice and countless rumors. If you leave, go to a place where no one knows her, and you can start over."

...

Lin Yuewei was silent for a long time after listening to it, but lost his words for a moment.

Gu Yanqiu said: "Do you still remember the scar on my grandma's leg?"

Lin Yuewei said "yes".

Gu Yanqiu said: "It was injured in a car accident."

Gu Yanqiu paused and said, "That's why my grandma hated my mother so much. If it weren't for her, none of this would have happened."

Lin Yuewei didn't say anything, and suddenly wanted to hug Gu Yanqiu.

Lin Yuewei sent her a video request, and Gu Yanqiu answered it. His face, which was smiling slightly as usual, could not see any impact this incident had on her.

"Don't pretend in front of me." Lin Yuewei said simply and directly.

The smile on Gu Yanqiu's face gradually faded away and he sighed.

Lin Yuewei said: "Touch your head."

Gu Yanqiu tilted his head and made a stroking posture.

She said: "I want to go find you."

Lin Yuewei looked at the time: "It's too late, but if you really want to come, I'll pick you up."

Gu Yanqiu smiled and said, "Forget it, I have to go to work tomorrow."

No matter how many things happen, life still needs to be taken care of. This is the world of adults.

Lin Yuewei also smiled and said, "I will fly back to see you when I have a holiday."

"It's more reliable for me to go on a break." Gu Yanqiu pointed out the facts without hesitation.

"Then are you here this week?" Lin Yue raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Not this week, I have some business."

"What a serious matter?"

"Looking back at home for dinner."

"Ask your dad?"

Gu Yanqiu nodded.

Lin Yuewei was not throwing a tantrum. What she and Gu Yanqiu could understand most was to give each other private space. They were both very independent people, so independent that if outsiders looked at them, they would not feel like a couple, but both of them were very adapted to such feelings.

Gu Yanqiu was silent for a while and said, "There is a doubt."

"What's the doubt?"

"My third grandfather said he never saw my mother again. Do you believe it?"

"According to the narrative of Cheng Yong and Director Fang, your mother finally found Mrs. Gao who moved a few years ago, which shows that she had never given up looking for her parents. So later, she must have returned to Yangqing Village. Even though Yangqing Village was flattened at that time and everyone left the village, the population mobility was low at that time, so everyone should still live in nearby towns and had not been too long. It should not be difficult to find the third grandfather." Lin Yuewei said.

The former Yangqing Village address is not far from the place where Grandpa San lives now, and it takes more than an hour to drive.

"At the beginning, he said that my mother was lost and went back to the right path, and I was still there. Even though I was very similar to my mother, the weight of the word "正号" seems to refer to a certain fact. So I tend to..."

In the video, Lin Yue frowned slightly, met her confident eyes through the screen, and blurted out: "Third Grandpa has not only seen your mother, but also your father."

Gu Yanqiu's lips instantly burst into laughter, his voice low and pleasant: "You're right."

Lin Yuewei was a little embarrassed for some reason and lowered her head and touched her nose.

Gu Yanqiu said: "So I want to ask my dad. Some things always require verification, and my intuition is just the tip of the iceberg."

Lin Yuewei was stunned for a moment, then squinted her eyes.

Gu Yanqiu bent his knuckles and tapped the table rhythmically, saying, "My mother once liked a woman, and it is very likely that the two of them did not love each other. Is this just a reason worthy of his efforts and effort to cover it up?"

Gu Yanqiu curled his lips and said, "In his mind, I am a person with such weak psychological tolerance?"

Lin Yuewei said: "What do you think there is more?"

"I don't know." Gu Yanqiu pondered, "I always feel that there is a bigger secret that I don't know. It should be related to what happened thirty years ago. I asked Mr. Liu to continue to investigate. Even if I dig three feet into the ground, I will find out the truth of the matter."

Lin Yue squeezed her eyebrows and said, "You have a headache."

Things at Gu Yanqiu's family were so complicated that her brain was almost overloaded.

Gu Yanqiu said: "Press you when I go next time."

"You press yourself first, don't get tired of yourself." Lin Yue said with a smile.

"No, I'm in good health." Gu Yanqiu said, "Are you going to study?"

Lin Yuewei sat cross-legged on the bed, raised her eyebrows and said, "You're going to drive me away?"

Gu Yanqiu bent his eyes: "No, I care about your work."

"Then I'm going to learn." Lin Yuewei deliberately lengthened his tone...

"I can't bear to part with you." Gu Yanqiu sighed.

Lin Yuewei stared at her strangely.

Gu Yanqiu looked at himself: "Why do you think of me like this?"

Lin Yue tsk and said, "Have you been practicing some love words recently? Why has your mouth become so sweet?"

Gu Yanqiu said, "Do you want to come and try it?"

Lin Yuewei's heartbeat immediately missed a beat, and it was a life-threatening death. Gu Yanqiu must have made up for the lessons secretly. She bulged her face and said, "I have read some book, so I'll be honest, otherwise I'll be angry."

Gu Yanqiu laughed and said, "I really didn't read any books."

"You swear!"

"I swear." Gu Yanqiu's fingers rose up and pointed at the sky, "I have never read the love story."

Lin Yuewei said suspiciously: "Then why are you so good at talking suddenly?"

Gu Yanqiu: "Well."

Lin Yuewei: "Talk."

Gu Yanqiu said: "It's probably because I miss you, so I unconsciously want to say something nice to make you happy."

Lin Yuewei said: "Then why don't you make me happy when you are with me?"

Gu Yanqiu said: "If you always say something nice, don't you think it's a slick word?"

Lin Yuewei said: "No."

Gu Yanqiu said: "But you don't think so in your heart. Love words are precious because they say little, and they cannot be abused, otherwise they will lose their effect."

She looked serious, and Lin Yuewei was convinced once again that she treated love as a career to manage it seriously. She couldn't say that her attitude was bad, but she always gave Lin Yuewei a sense of restraint of careful calculations, just like Lin Yuewei's impression when she first met her, like a robot that followed the precise procedure step by step, even if she was very fond of this.

The key is to carefully calculate the love strategy, so why did she say it out? Lin Yuewei is very puzzled.

Lin Yuewei, who was in a complicated mood, decided to end the topic temporarily. She tapped her finger on the hang-up button of the video and said reluctantly: "I'm going to learn."

"Go and go."

Lin Yuewei pressed it down and the video ended with two beeps.

Lin Yuewei picked up the script next to her, and as soon as he caught his eye, he settled in place as if he had entered a state of meditation.

After Gu Yanqiu finished the call, he plugged in a charger to charge his phone. At the same time the prompt sound lighted up, Lin Yuewei's video request appeared on the page again.

Gu Yanqiu: "???"

She pressed to connect: "What's wrong?"

Lin Yuewei's face was full of desire to speak but stopped.

Gu Yanqiu was even more suspicious: "What's wrong? Your expression?"

Lin Yuewei paused for about three seconds and said, "You just said that your mother has a lover who has been together, right? Female."

"Yes." Gu Yanqiu frowned. This was what they said at the beginning, and they said it several times. Why did Lin Yuewei suddenly mention it again now? She asked, "Did you think of something?"

"It's nothing, I'll go to study." Lin Yuewei quickly hung up the video.

Gu Yanqiu: "???"

This is obviously something.

Gu Yanqiu clicked on the chat box, sent her a question mark, and then typed: [Is it something I can't tell me?]
