Chapter 19
Chapter 19
Chi Yicheng is almost 80 years old, and he speaks with the slowness and trembling that are common to the elderly.
But he is Chi Yu's biological father, and he has a birth certificate, which is clearly written on the family tree.
There is also a mountain of DNA evidence.
That's right, as soon as Chi Yu learned about genetics in biology class, he managed to pluck a handful of Chi Yicheng's hair for a DNA test.She thought that Zhaochi Yicheng had lost his fertility when he married Ms. Jiang.
But the facts... The appraisal report clearly showed the parent-child relationship between her and the old man.
"Tianzhu Town is your mother's hometown... Do you think that I don't even know where a woman comes from, what kind of background, her experience, and family... just marry her rashly? Yu'er, your mother is me Wife."
"Shut up! You are not allowed to call her that!" Chi Yu's ears were rumbling, he couldn't hear his own voice, and he didn't know if he was screaming like a child whose wish was not fulfilled, hysterical, no Controlled by reason, "Old pervert! Old bastard——"
Outside the car across the window.
"Looking at it this way, he looks like a normal young man." An Zhaojun said in a joking tone, emphasizing the word "normal".
The girl put one hand on the steering wheel and frowned slightly. From the expression alone, she seemed to be slightly unhappy with the person on the other end of the phone.
But her lips opened and closed very fast, the veins on the back of her hands were prominent, and her knuckles were turning white.
She was angry.
Restrained anger.
But it is still obvious-when a person is in extreme anger, the attention will be completely on the object of anger, and there will be no time for others.
An Zhaojun and Lin Ou were right next to the car, but Xiao Chi always turned a blind eye—she didn't even notice the people standing outside the car.
Lin Ou coughed warningly, "Be careful, she is my sister."
"Speaking of your father... Mr. Chi..." An Zhaojun had no taboos, "Is he really your father, not your grandfather?"
Lin Ou gave her an annoyed look, "We haven't gotten to know each other well enough for our parents' sake."
An Zhaojun bowed his head to express his apology, and at the same time said: "It really doesn't look like it."
"You know the old man?"
An Zhaojun raised his chin inward: "It should be on the phone with Mr. Chi."
"What the hell?" Lin Ou pulled her away from the car, "Speak clearly, you, Yu Baoer, and the old man... have anything to do with each other?"
An Zhaojun didn't know Mr. Chi for a long time, only a few hours longer than Mr. Chi.
The travel agency she was affiliated with had cooperation with hotels under Yicheng Group.She went to the hotel for a meeting that day, and Mr. Chi happened to stay in the hotel and attended the meeting.
The theme of the meeting was about the route development and drainage of the New Silk Road. As soon as An Zhaojun, who was the invited lecturer, finished his speech, the old man’s first secretary took her to the next office.
An Zhaojun believes that the old man has actually investigated her in detail and knows her itinerary well.
Slightly different from the vigorous and quick-thinking successful entrepreneurs in the news and interviews, Mr. Chi made no secret of the fatigue and weakness of the elderly in front of her, like an old man who is doing homework with the younger generation at home, and sometimes suddenly loses his mind while talking .
The conversation lasted three quarters of an hour, and the total exchange time was only about half, or less.
Mr. Chi asked her about the Silk Road-Hexi and the Western Regions, and seemed to mention Puchanghai unintentionally, passing by.
Later, Mr. Chi mentioned his daughter tactfully, saying that she planned to go to Hexi by herself.
He showed An Zhaojun a photo of his daughter.
The photo is a distant view, like a screenshot taken by a monitor. It is weak and pale, and looks like it could fall down in a gust of wind.
Her expression was cold and gloomy, as if the whole world was sorry for her.
He asked An Zhaojun to take care of her, and when he was done, he said affectionately, "She will take the soft and not the hard, but she is very defensive. Don't just follow her, and retreat appropriately."
The old man gave An Zhaojun a ticket.
The departure date is that night.
"At that time, I thought Xiaochi was always a rebellious kid who ran away from home. I bought a ticket on a whim, and took a quick trip. I only brought a bag with me, and I relied on online search for strategies when I went out."
"Wait." Lin Ou's mind was a little confused, "So you followed Yubaoer Haicheng when she set off. Was it arranged by the old man?"
"Yes, I found her in the waiting hall." An Zhaojun said, "I didn't follow her all the time. I took her with me for a week, and it happened that another group of my clients arrived early. Mr. Xiaochi knew about the situation and fired me. Mr. The husband said there was no rush, and let me come to Puchanghai when I had time to wait. She will definitely come. Later, I received your message on the Internet, thinking that there was no need to wait, so I took your job. It turned out that you are sisters. "
"It's a pure coincidence. I didn't expect you to separate so early, and I didn't expect you to sit on the sidelines." After sorting out his thoughts roughly, Lin Ou didn't quite agree with her evaluation of Chi Yu, "She's not as weak as you said."
"Yes, no, I was wrong, I admit it. And I once thought Mr. Chi was wrong, Xiao Chi never wanted to come to Puchanghai. I asked her, but she didn't answer directly. I guess she didn't know that she wanted to go Where, I also guessed wrong on this point."
Along the way, An Zhaojun found that Mr. Chi knew Mr. Xiaochi very well.
After all, he is a battle-tested capitalist, and he can treat his own daughter as calmly and objectively as he does his subordinate employees.
"Mr. Xiaochi has been talking about business all the way—she talks about business in a dignified way."
Mature, steady and watertight.
"I haven't revealed it all the time. She probably doesn't trust me very much. Maybe she guessed that I was entrusted to find her."
She is skeptical—in other words, she has a cautiousness beyond her years of experience.
"But she came anyway."
"She's still here." Lin Ou sighed.
"Her purpose is very clear." An Zhaojun hit the point straight, "Mr. Chi knows this very well."
"You value the old man very much." Lin Ou was not very happy.
"I respect many elderly people, living legends." An Zhaojun said.
"Chi Yicheng is indeed a legend," Lin Ou said disdainfully, "The legendary bastard."
"That's also a legend."
Lin Ou asked: "Why did the old man choose you?"
Inside the car—
"Why don't you tell me directly that you know where Tianyou Town is? Why do you find an outsider to spy on me?"
"Xiao An was also born in Tianyou Town."
Chi Yu looked out, An Zhaojun and Lin Ou seemed to be talking happily, while Tao Wu and Yang Xiaoyang looked at each other silently.
"I thought about telling you." Chi Yicheng said helplessly, "There are many things, the closer you are to the people you are close to, the more you can't open your mouth. Yu Baoer."
"Stop," Chi Yu sneered, "I'm not close to you."
Chi Yicheng sighed, "I left you out."
Then, as if looking for an excuse to save face, he stammered: "To be honest, I always hoped that you were not born by your mother. Your mother... a lot of things happened because of her, and..."
"what?"
"You should go first. You tell Xiaoan where you are going, and she will take you there. Go to the place where your mother was born and raised. You will understand many things after you go." Chi Yicheng said, "When you come back, we Let's talk again."
"Is there anything you can't say on the phone?" Chi Yu said in a flat tone, "I'm going back to Haicheng now, I won't go to Tianzhu Town."
Chi Yicheng wanted her to go to Tianyou Town, Ms. Jiang's hometown, she thought.
long silence.
Silence means that some things are really difficult to say clearly on the phone, the call should end, but no one hangs up.
"You really shouldn't have been born in the first place."
On the other end, Chi Yicheng's voice was much older, his breathing was heavy, and there was a whistling sound from time to time, as if a lump had suddenly grown in his throat, or something was stuck.
"Your mother went for her first check-up when she was four months pregnant. The doctor told her—and not until much later—that the child had chromosomal abnormalities and was most likely to suffer from a serious congenital disease, and it was recommended to induce labor. Your mother didn't tell me It took me more than three months. I happened to be at home that day, and your mother suddenly fainted. When I was sent to the hospital, the doctor told me that the fetal heartbeat was very weak and the situation was very dangerous."
About recalling the dangers of the past, Chi Yicheng's voice suddenly became inaudible, "You are a premature baby, Yu Baoer. You were not breathing when you were born."
Clusters of fireworks suddenly bloom in front of my eyes and in my mind.
It's not colorful splendor, every firework that explodes suddenly is the forest white that invades the field of vision.
Chi Yu rubbed his eyes, there was still a large white area in front of his eyes.
"When the doctor performed the operation, I wrote you into the family tree, and hoped that the ancestors would bless you. The ancestors blessed you." Chi Yicheng said, "The nurse was reporting the time of death, and you suddenly cried and lived.
"You were always in poor health when you were young. I thought it was my problem. After all, I am getting old. But..."
When words indicating a turning point appeared, Chi Yu immediately interrupted him, "She's dead."
Chi Yicheng turned a deaf ear, and continued: "I found out later that it was because of your mother. The doctor told me that your mother was severely irradiated, and she couldn't have children at all..."
The fireworks stopped, and the vision gradually became clear. In front of it was a gray-yellow three-story building. The white wall was blown into a yellowish yellow by the strong wind for many years. Eyes, the red, yellow and blue canopies are like coquettish eyelashes attached to the eyes.
"Old Ma." Chi Yu raised his voice and stopped him, "You haven't been to Ms. Jiang's funeral, and you haven't seen her death report, have you?"
"... Yu Baoer."
Chi Yu looked at Lin Ou who seemed to be frightened and looked this way, and said casually: "She was killed by your sons and daughters."
Hearing the heavy breathing that seemed to be an asthma attack, Chi Yu asked an irrelevant question, "Since you have Dao An, why did you call Lin Ou here?"
"Lin Ou...who?"
"My sister!"
Chi Yu died.
She's a little irritable, like a cat who's been pushed into a bathtub for a bath, or a dog who's been caught shaving.
While a shower and a shave probably wouldn't do her any harm, she wasn't happy because it wasn't of her own accord.
She thought that she got rid of unnecessary family disputes, and went to Hexi, even to the Western Regions, to Puchanghai just for a little blood relationship, and for a silly dream.
She wanted to go back this time and live her little life in peace.
As a result, the little one finally calmed down and was replaced by the old man who lingered.
She was a guinea pig running around under Chi Yicheng's microscope. She thought she had slipped to the ends of the earth, but she was actually still in the old man's palm.
Chi Yu pressed the horn button on the side of the steering wheel hard, but the vehicle was not powered on and started, but she heard the sharp and long whistle.
The closed carriage became narrower and narrower, and she had no way to escape, nowhere to retreat.
She almost threw everything at hand, smashing the steel cage that imprisoned her.
She clenched her phone and clenched her fists.
At this moment, the back of the neck seemed to be gently brushed by the tail of a divine beast.
In an instant, all the five internal organs are returned, and all six gods are restored.
Chi Yu suddenly woke up.
Chi Yicheng was disturbing her.
What he said - what Ms. Jiang knew that she was not suitable for having a child, but still insisted on being pregnant for eight months, regardless of whether the child would grow up safely in the future, and resolutely gave birth to her; Written in the family tree...and so on—it's all sophistry to clear up one's own responsibility.
Her physique is indeed not very strong, and she has suffered many disasters since she was a child.
But thanks to Ms. Jiang's careful care, she survived tenaciously.
Chi Yu looked out again.
Tao Wu stood quietly on the spot, with a baseball cap on his head that he didn't know when to put it on, but his eyes should be facing this direction.
The fluffy feeling of the back of the neck, like water flowing and wind blowing, has not dissipated.
She lowered her head, touched the corners of her upturned lips with her fingertips, and silently corrected the statement: Thanks to Ms. Jiang for insisting on letting her be born, and she was born smoothly, and then she can rely on herself—most of the time—by herself. Survive to this day.
All in all, it has nothing to do with Chi Yicheng's half a dime.
Chi Yicheng is just an old stallion and bastard who talks nonsense and only wants to sow seeds without taking responsibility.
——He didn't even know who Lin Ou was.
But Chi Yu didn't curse him to die.
No need.
Chi Yicheng is dying.
That night, Chi Yu stayed up all night.
When it was almost dawn, she just felt a little drowsy when the computer made a "ding dong".
New email alerts.
After more than ten hours, JMQ replied to the email.
It is a string of garbled characters.
This is not difficult for Chi Yu.
The parsed garbled characters are converted into a marked large-resolution satellite map, and it is scaled to 20% scale. The lower right corner of the map shows a round human ear shape—the ear of the earth, Puchanghai.
The position marked on the map is in the depths of the Puchang Sea, and it is remarked in a font with special glowing effects: Tianzhu Town Base.
After making four encrypted backups of the map, Chi Yu squatted beside the bed and looked at Tao Wu who was still sleeping with his chin in his hands.
Seeing her complexion slowly turning red, Chi Yu smiled and knocked on her wrist: "Tao Wuwu, get up."
Tao Wu opened his eyes.
Chi Yu showed her the map and pointed to the mark of Tianyou Town: "I want to go to this place, not 40.00% want to go, probably... [-]% five. Can you use your premonition of the beast to tell me, can you go? "
Tao Wu touched her forehead.
Yu Bao's dealings with everyone were prudent, except for her.
Therefore, Tao Wu easily picked up her superficial thoughts: Can Tao Wu bear it?Is the spiritual power enough...
She couldn't help but asked through voice transmission with inspiration: "If you don't think about me, how much do you want to go?"
Chi Yu used a little strength to push her forehead away from her, and muttered, "I didn't think about you."
Tao Wu smiled, "Okay, I'll take you there."
Chi Yu still had doubts, "Are you sure?"
Tao Wu looked into her eyes and said seriously: "Sure."
—Where you want to go, no matter where, I am willing to accompany you.
Chi Yu nodded, "Then let's go."
"Let's go."
The author has something to say: Another bye week.
But I am still more.
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
