Chapter 82:
When Shen Xi received the news that Zhou Mingmei was kicked out of the hospital by Shen's father, she was waiting for Lu Gesen in the cemetery.
Hang up old K's phone, Shen Xi looked at the picture of her mother on the tombstone with complex eyes. At first, when he arranged for Chu Qianqian to appear beside Shen's father, not only to divide the relationship between Shen's father and Shen Ji, but also to avenge his mother's grievances because of Zhou Mingmei. Now Zhou Mingmei has finally tasted the feeling of Father Shen's name of true love, when he likes it as a treasure and when he doesn't like it, he abandons it, but he realizes that his mother may not be what he remembered, nor was he what he imagined. Love your father so much. Before he knew it, another man appeared beside his mother. She was pregnant for that man and even planned to leave Shen's house. Shen Xi didn't know how her mother planned to arrange herself at that time. Did she take him away? Or leave him alone in the Shen family?
Shen Xi stood there quietly, forcing herself not to think about it anymore, no matter what arrangements her mother made at the time, she eventually left herself in the Shen family alone.
"Xiao Xi!" Lugersen's voice interrupted his thoughts.
Shen Xi looked back as if nothing had happened, "Cousin!"
Lu Gesen nodded, bent over and put the lily of the orchid in his arms in front of the tomb, got up and turned to Shen Xi, "How are you doing?"
Shen Xi smiled lightly, "It's okay."
Although the two have known each other for a long time, they have never been close. On the one hand, both of them deliberately kept their distance from each other to prevent their relationship from being discovered. On the other hand, despite the close blood relationship, so many years of estrangement cannot be made up for in just half a year. Although Lu Gesen felt guilty and wanted to make amends for ignoring Shen Xi all these years, he didn't know how to start.
Thinking that this time Shen Xi took the initiative to ask to meet, Lu Gesen couldn't help but be concerned, "Is there something wrong?"
Shen Xi nodded, he has pieced together the general truth about the past of the Han and Chen family, just as Lu Gesen felt that he had the right to know the truth, he also felt that Lu Gesen had the right to know this. No matter who is right or wrong, he is obliged to tell Rugerson the truth. In addition, he also hoped to see Wang Changlin. Old K has never been able to find out who the man who appeared beside his mother was. Since Wang Changlin knew a lot about the past, he might have some clues.
Shen Xi didn't think that Wang Changlin was that man, but subconsciously he didn't want to think so.
Abandoning the distracting thoughts about Wang Changlin in her heart, Shen Xi told Lu Gesen about the past she had put together. Lu Gesen's expression changed several times as he spoke, and in the middle he looked at the photo of Han Rou on the tombstone with complicated eyes. After Shen Xi finished speaking, Lu Gesen took a deep breath and looked serious, "Xiao Xi, are you sure this is the truth?"
Shen Xi nodded, "I found some of these things, and others told me. Don't worry, that person will never lie to me."
Who is that person? Shen Xi didn't say it, and Lu Gesen didn't ask. Outsiders who were with Shen Xi and Li Mingxuan didn't know. Lu Gesen heard that Shen Xi was so sure and didn't say anything. He just lowered his head silently and didn't know what he was thinking.
Lu Gesen clarified his thoughts and looked at Shen Xi, "Father's car accident?"
Shen Xi shook her head, "I can't find it."
Lu Gesen firmly believes that Han Yu's car accident was the hands and feet of the Shen family, but Shen Xi could not find any clues, even if Shen's father mentioned Han Yu's crazy appearance, but Shen Xi I can't see that Father Shen would be so mad.
Lu Gesen looked at Shen Xi deeply and said solemnly, "I believe in foster father."
Shen Xi looked at Lu Gesen calmly. He didn't want to protect Shen's father, he just had doubts about this matter. After a while, Lu Gesen took the lead to look away, and Shen Xi whispered, "I want to meet lawyer Wang."
There was a flash of surprise in Lu Gesen's eyes, Shen Xi said calmly, "I have never been able to find out who the man who appeared beside my mother was? Lawyer Wang knows a lot about what happened back then, and he I've been following my mother, and I wonder if he has any clues?"
Lu Gesen couldn't hide the surprise on his face, and then smiled bitterly, "The righteous father has a deep love for his aunt, don't you make him sad?"
Shen Xi looked at Lu Gesen apologetically, "I know it's embarrassing, but I want to know the reason why my mother jumped off the building. I hope my mother can really sleep peacefully."
Lu Gesen couldn't resist Shen Xi, and sighed in his heart, "I will tell my foster father." Shen Xi glanced at him gratefully.
The two did not stop in the cemetery, but walked towards the door one after the other. When they parted, Lu Gesen seemed to think of something and stopped Shen Xi, "Xiao Xi is about to celebrate her birthday, what are the arrangements?"
The word birthday made Shen Xi's heart move, and she subconsciously thought of her grandfather's will. In the previous remarks, he did not mention the will, not because he deliberately concealed Lu Gesen, but because he could not see through Wang Changlin behind Lu Gesen. Thoughts flashed, Shen Xi shook her head, "No arrangement, I haven't celebrated my birthday for a long time."
Lu Gesen felt guilty and wanted to make up for Shen Xi by celebrating her birthday.
"How about I spend your birthday with you, what does Xiaoxi want?"
Lu Gesen's proposal made Shen Xi froze for a moment, and the shadow of Li Mingxuan flashed in his mind for the first time.
"What? Inconvenient?" Lu Gesen keenly noticed Shen Xi's abnormality.
Shen Xi nodded slightly, Lu Gesen realized something and laughed, "Do you want to spend time with a girlfriend? I don't even know that Xiaoxi has a girlfriend, so take me to see you another day one sight."
Shen Xi's eyes flashed a peculiarity, she couldn't equate Li Mingxuan with his girlfriend, and avoided this topic with a smile.
Lu Gesen didn't care, just thought Shen Xi was shy, couldn't help patting Shen Xi's shoulder, and said in relief, "Xiao Xi has grown up."
Lu Gesen is not actually a few years older than Shen Xi, but he always looks serious and seems to be much more mature than Shen Xi. Hearing Lu Gesen's elder-like tone, Shen Xi couldn't help laughing. When the two said goodbye, a black car slowly drove past the entrance of the cemetery and stopped far away on the other side of the road.
Although the cemetery is remote, people often come to worship, so Shen Xi and Lu Gesen didn't care about this car. After they left, Ye Han pushed open the car door and walked down, looking thoughtfully at the direction the two left, how could Shen Xi and Lu Gesen be together?
Because of Li Mingxuan, Ye Han is no stranger to Shen Xi. As for Lu Gesen, when he was Shen Ji's assistant, Ye Han had met him several times. As far as Ye Han knew, the two of them had nothing to do with each other, but it just seemed that the attitude between the two was very strange, not like ordinary friends.
Ye Han thought for a while, then answered Li Mingxuan's phone, and in a few words explained what he saw. He didn't take any subjective color, just described it truthfully.
The expected caller fell silent, "Ming Xuan?" Ye Han said worriedly.
"I'm here." Li Mingxuan agreed.
It looked very intimate, and it didn't seem like there was any problem.
Li Mingxuan smiled wryly, knowing that Ye Han wanted something wrong. He didn't believe that Shen Xi would be sorry for him, but at this time, Shen Xi and Lu Gesen appeared together, and they were connected to a series of events in the Shen family, which made him start to doubt something.
Sighing silently in her heart, Li Mingxuan didn't answer the question, and instead said, "Do you a favor?"
"What?"
Li Mingxuan suppressed the idea of investigating Shen Xi, and said solemnly, "You help me check Lu Gesen."
Ye Han agreed without saying a word. Unlike the Li family, which is engaged in business, the Ye family is the real power faction in politics. Ye Han is the youngest son of the Ye family. Although he deviates from the expectations of the Ye family, he not only has no interest in the official career, but even opened a small private restaurant in Nancheng, but his words are the words of the Ye family. pile.
Hanging up Ye Han's phone, Li Mingxuan instructed his assistant not to let anyone disturb him, and locked himself in the office alone.
Ye Han's phone call was like an introduction, evoking the hidden doubts in Li Mingxuan's heart, which could no longer be suppressed. He is not stupid. According to Ye Han's description, Shen Xi and Lu Gesen don't seem to have just met, so it can be ruled out that Shen Xi met Lu Gesen specially after knowing about the will. When contacting the place where the two met, Li Mingxuan always knew the special significance of the cemetery to Shen Xi, which was enough to prove that Lu Gesen was not an outsider to Shen Xi.
Thinking of Lu Gesen's outstanding performance since he joined Shen's last year, the trust of Shen Ji and Shen Cheng in him, and a series of things that have happened to Shen's for more than half a year, the corner of Li Mingxuan's mouth slightly He sipped, and his expression became cautious.
go down. As if escaping, he opened the drawer in front of him, and inside was the only photo of Shen Xi and him. I don't know why, but Shen Xi was very resistant to taking pictures. This group photo was taken only when Shen Xi was in a very good mood.
Li Mingxuan's fingers crossed Shen Xi's smile on the photo, faintly he seemed to feel that there was something behind Shen Xi's smile that he couldn't see clearly.
When Li Mingxuan was struggling alone in the office, Lu Gesen appeared in front of Wang Changlin.
"Foster father?" Lugersen said worriedly.
Wang Changlin shook his head to indicate that he was fine, "Do you repeat what Shen Xi said?"
Knowing that his aunt once conceived a child for him, and then took the child to his death by jumping off the building, he wants to know the reason why aunt really jumped off the building, so that she can sleep completely underground."
Every time Lu Gesen said a word, Wang Changlin's face became ugly. When Lu Gesen finished speaking, Wang Changlin seemed to have suffered a huge blow, and he was full of indescribable decadence.
"Foster father?" Lugersen vaguely guessed something.
Wang Changlin waved his hand with a desolate expression, "I'm sorry for her."
"She?"
A sad smile appeared on Wang Changlin's face, "Your aunt, that unborn child is mine."
Although there has been a faint guess through the adoptive father's reaction, when he really heard the adoptive father say this, Lu Gesen's face still couldn't hide his shock.
Wang Changlin gave Lu Gesen a sad look, "Do you think why I didn't tell you this?" Before Lu Gesen said anything, Wang Changlin laughed at himself, "What can I tell you? Saying how useless I am, I can't protect the woman I love, I have seen happiness beckoning, but I lost her in a blink of an eye. I just knew about that child, and he disappeared with Xiaorou. After their death, I didn't even have the right to appear in front of Shen Dehan to ask him what happened. I couldn't protect her before she died, how could I let her carry such a bad reputation after her death death."
Lu Gesen couldn't bear to see Wang Changlin's pain, and interrupted him, "Foster father, I'm sorry, I shouldn't."
Wang Changlin shook his head, full of guilt, "I should say sorry, Gesen, I have been using you all these years. I kept saying that I was helping you to avenge the Han family, but in fact, I just wanted to avenge Xiaorou. I have no right to stand up and do anything for Xiaorou. I didn't have it back then, and I can't do it now. I can only hide in a place where I can't see the light. I... "
"Foster father!" Lu Gesen hurriedly said, "You didn't feel sorry for me, without you all these years, I don't know what I would be like. I have always been grateful to you for adopting I will do whatever you want me to do."
"Gesen!" Wang Changlin looked at him with complicated eyes.
Lu Gesen didn't want Wang Changlin to be immersed in the pain of the past, but thinking about Shen Xi, he hesitated, "Where is Xiao Xi?"
Wang Changlin smiled sadly, "You help me meet Xiaoxi tomorrow, some words I have held back in my heart for a long time, I am sorry for their mother and son."
Lu Gesen wanted to say something, but finally swallowed.
He finally understood why the foster father's feelings for Shen Xi were so complicated, and why the foster father helped him so much on the way of revenge. But thinking that his adopted father is the man Shen Xi was looking for, he didn't know whether Shen Xi could accept the truth, and what should Shen Xi do?
