C53 (1/2)
When he opened the bedroom door, the sky was still bright. Gu Linxi saw that the mother and son pair were no longer in the living room. He didn't know if he should heave a sigh of relief or disappointment, but Gu Linxi felt that her heart was somewhat empty, as if her soul couldn't find a body that could accommodate him.
Holding onto the thought of going out to relax, Gu Linxi only said that she wanted to walk around quietly for a bit. Jiang Jiayi wasn't at ease, so he secretly followed behind Gu Linxi.
Outside, the sky was still blue. A father and daughter sat on a bench in the park, and the amiable father held a meat bun in his hand. He lowered his head and asked his daughter, ”What else do you want to eat? Dad will buy it for you. But you can't tell Mom when you get home. Mom will definitely blame Dad for giving you junk food again. ”
The daughter was about eight years old and had a dimple in her cheeks when she smiled. She answered her father's question sweetly.
”Is that our secret?”
At least, Gu Linxi's eyes were slightly moist, as the scene in her memories overlapped with the scene at this moment. It was unknown when it had begun, but the benevolent father had become Gu Chenzhou, and the cute girl had become the him of her youth.
”Darling, Daddy secretly gave you this lollipop. You can't tell Mommy, Mommy will definitely be angry.”
The young man nodded to himself, smiling like a fool.
Gu Linxi felt as if something had blocked her throat, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. Tears that seemed to be about to fall from his eyes as Gu Linxi stood there silently, like a fool, as tears fell from his eyes.
”Dad, what happened to that auntie?”
”Auntie must be homesick.”
”Did you miss your parents?” the little girl asked innocently.
Gu Linxi's staggering steps left this place that made her feel uncomfortable, and she no longer looked at the father and daughter pair. But the sight of Gopérou on her knees lingered in her mind. It must be because it was so serious that it came looking for him. What about her? Should he go visit her?
While still in a daze, Gu Linxi got into the car and said a destination. She didn't know why she had come to her mother's grave. She just stood in front of the tombstone silently and placed the flower in her hand in front of the grave.
”Mom, do you think I should go see her?”
It was to be expected that he did not receive any response. She had only seen one ghost in this world, Jiang Jiayi. She didn't know when Jiang Jiayi had caught up to her, but now that she was able to see Jiang Jiayi, she felt a lot more at ease.
”No matter what you decide, your mother will agree.” Jiang Jiayi followed suit and looked at the tombstone as well. There was a picture of Gu Lingxi's mother on it. She was very young and very beautiful. However, he didn't have the slightest resemblance to Gu Linxi, who looked quite similar to her father.
She would never know whether or not her mother would agree to it.
”Let's go. Walk with me for a bit, so that you don't have to secretly follow me.”
