Xiaozhou nodded without even thinking about it: "Yes."
Gu Beisheng didn't want to live up to his expectations.
"Do you want blood?"
With that said, he handed his hand to her.
Gu Beisheng looked at his white and clean hands, reluctant to make a cut on them, and shook his head: "Fingernails and hair are both fine."
Xiaozhou retracted his hand.
Gu Beisheng took him to the grocery store, bought a document bag and nail clippers, and then went to a park bench near Lianchi Kindergarten.
Xiaozhou stretched out his hand in front of her.
Gu Beisheng pinched his little fingers and trimmed his nails carefully, for fear of cutting his hands.
Under the sun, Gu Beisheng's seaweed-like hair turned maroon, and his long eyelashes were surrounded by light, making his whole person feel much warmer and softer.
The care and seriousness in his eyes became more and more gentle.
Xiaozhou looked at it, a little lost.
He even breathed much lighter, unwilling to break the calm.
I once fantasized about mommy cutting his nails.
For a moment, he regarded his aunt as his mother.
Cherish this moment.
However, all good things are short-lived.
Gu Beisheng quickly finished cutting his nails, put them in a file bag and kept them. He pursed his lips slightly and said, "I'll take it to the Forensic Identification Center. If someone wants to find their lost child, take it out and compare them. If they match, I will
Contact you again."
Xiaozhou listened and said subconsciously: "You can't wait until that day before contacting me."
Gu Beisheng looked at him puzzled: "Huh?"
"I still owe you seventy-two, and I have to pay you back."
Gu Beisheng couldn't help but laugh. This was the first time she met someone who was so eager to pay back the money she owed.
"good."
Xiaozhou lowered his head, feeling very complicated.
He didn't know why, he just wanted to spend more time with his aunt.
He just wanted to owe her money, the more the better, so that he would have a reason to meet again in the future.
Gu Beisheng didn't know his little thoughts and looked at the time: "It's time for me to send you to school."
"Why is Auntie, such a good person, abandoned?"
Gu Beisheng was stunned and looked at him. It was difficult for her to accept that those two words came from such a young child.
abandon……
These two words carry so much disappointment and sadness.
Gu Beisheng smiled: "How come?"
Xiaozhou touched her newly trimmed fingernails and asked seriously: "Has our mother abandoned us?"
Gu Beisheng was stunned: "..."
No matter how old or young you are, you will always feel frightened when you cannot find family love.
Before today, she and Xiaozhou had the same idea.
Perhaps, she was really abandoned, so she couldn't find any blood relatives.
However, she didn't want Xiaozhou to be like this.
Even like Xiaozhou, with hope, you will always find your relatives.
Xiaozhou sniffed and asked again: "I'm almost five years old, why doesn't Mommy come to me?"
Gu Beisheng suddenly felt that the tip of his nose was sore, his throat was a little choked, and he was speechless.
"Is it because I'm not good, so Mommy doesn't want me anymore?"
Gu Beisheng didn't know what to say, so he stretched out his hand and held his little hand that was intertwined with anxiety: "Don't think about it, no, why wouldn't Mommy not want you?"
Xiaozhou didn't understand why Mommy didn't come to see him since she was still alive.
Gu Beisheng thought about her life experience, which was also a mess. At least, she didn't know until she grew up that her relatives were not the cancerous ones in the Gu family.
But Xiaozhou is different. He is too young and needs his mother's company.
Just like when she was very young, she also hoped that her parents could go to the mountains to see her.
Such expectations gradually turned into disappointment later on.
She doesn't want Xiaozhou to be like her.
She patted his hand gently: "Xiaozhou, there are too many helpless things in life. When you grow up, you will know that everyone has many things they don't mean. Maybe your mother has some difficulties.
, so I can’t come to meet you for the time being, but Auntie believes that since she chose to conceive in ten months to give birth to you, she must love you.”
This sentence is said to Xiaozhou and also to myself.
"Does Mommy love me?"
Gu Beisheng nodded: "Yes."
Then he laughed again: "Who can not love a child as cute as Xiaozhou?"
Xiaozhou confirmed again: "Then our mommy will be reunited with us one day, right?"
"certainly."
Xiaozhou curled his lips and smiled, feeling much better.
"I'll take you to school."
Xiaozhou nodded.
Gu Beisheng walked to the school gate, thinking of his somewhat withdrawn character in front of outsiders, and worried that something like this would happen again.
"Xiaozhou, why don't you want to talk to others?"
Xiaozhou didn't say anything, and he didn't know why.
He couldn't answer this question.
Ever since I was a child, I didn't like talking to others.
Gu Beisheng guessed that he might have encountered something when he was very young, or he might have been lonely since he was a child and grew up in a cold environment, so he was unwilling to communicate with others.
He is somewhat autistic.
If it is not relieved before entering first grade, it may become more serious.
It's so serious that even the people closest to you are unwilling to communicate.
Gu Beisheng did not continue the topic and smiled: "Xiaozhou, you must remember to pay me back."
If Xiaozhou is willing to talk to her, she will spend more time with him.
The most important thing is to help him find his mother.
Xiaozhou nodded: "I will definitely pay it back."
This seems to have become a secret and a tacit understanding between the two.
After sending Xiaozhou to the classroom, Gu Beisheng left. She needed to prepare things for a private auction.
…
South Bank Residence.
Fu Xizhou leaned on the leather seat, flipped through his phone, and clicked on Xiaozhou's WeChat account.
Then he remembered the profile picture he saw on Gu Beisheng's mobile phone. He thought for a few seconds and then sent a text: "How do you feel at school?"
However, after sending, a red exclamation mark lights up next to it.
He was slightly startled, what was going on?
Resend the friend request.
There was no reaction at all.
"Shiqing."
Shi Qing, who was dozing next to him, was startled: "Master Fu, what's the matter?"
Fu Xizhou asked: "Can you see if Xiaozhou has deleted your WeChat account?"
Shi Qing quickly took out his phone and sent an emoticon. Suddenly, a red exclamation mark appeared.
"deleted."
Fu Xizhou's heart sank.
"Master Fu, is it that the young master doesn't want to talk to us anymore, so he deleted WeChat?"
"no."
Fu Xizhou frowned: "He might have encountered something at school."
Shi Qing was stunned, that's okay!?
"I'll go to the school right away to have a look."
Fu Xizhou was a little uneasy and stopped him: "I'll go with you."
With that said, he stood up and picked up his suit.
Shi Qing nodded.
Recently, Mr. Fu has become more and more attracted to the young master.
As soon as I came downstairs, I saw Gu Beisheng coming back from outside.
Fu Xizhou noticed that she was holding an empty document bag in her hand.
