C87 (1/2)
”I didn't expect you to come to a place like this either.” Gu Nan City had some words to say, but she still maintained her demeanor.
”Probably... I've done a lot of wrong before. ” Qiao Anxian laughed self-deprecatingly, ”Who knows? Maybe I came here to seek peace of mind.”
Gu Nan City didn't say anything. Just when Qiao Anzhi thought that their conversation would end like this, the man suddenly said, ”Who didn't do something wrong? ”Whether it's regret or redemption, everything can't go back …”
Qiao Anyun thought Gu Nan City was talking about her, but he didn't expect him to be talking about himself.
Thinking about Ye Huayan, she didn't know whether she should mention it or not. After hesitating for a while, she decided it was better not to mention Gu Nan City's sorrows, so she gave up.
”Doctor Gu, you …”
Without waiting for him to finish, a little girl came in front of them and pulled on Gu Nan City's sleeve, saying in a spoiled manner: ”Big brother, can you teach us to sing?”
Gu Nan Cheng's expression changed slightly. He seemed a little embarrassed. He couldn't refuse a child's request, but he still didn't like singing …
The little girl saw that he was silent so she lowered her head in disappointment and asked: ”Can't I?”
Qiao Anxiao saw his distress and helped him out. He held the little girl's hand and said, ”Elder sister's singing is better than big brother's singing. Let elder sister teach you to sing, okay?”
The little girl looked at her companion and nodded, ”Alright, sister, what can you sing?”
Qiao Anxiao thought about it and said, ”Then how about I sing you a child song that I like the most? If you think it's nice, then learn from me. ”
”Alright!” The children said in unison, and then they formed a circle around Joanna and Gu Nan City.
Joanna cleared her throat and began to sing.
”The wind helps the willow leaves curve. Whose windmill is it, the child is on his back …”
For some reason, Qiao Anxiao couldn't help singing this song. She had never remembered that she could sing this song, but the song and the words seemed to be deeply engraved in her heart, gushing out from the deepest part of her memories.
She had merely hummed a few times and the children had enjoyed listening to it. However, when she looked towards Gu Nan City, she was startled by the terrifying expression on his face.
She could not describe what kind of expression it was. She only knew that the man's gaze was somewhat frightening, and before she could react, he had already grabbed her wrist.
The children were so frightened that they ran away, hiding and not daring to come out.
”What's the matter with you?” ”You scared the children so much all of a sudden …”
”You … How did you know how to sing this song? ” Gu Nan City's voice couldn't help trembling.
He would never forget this song. Although this song was a children's song, the song that Qiao Anyun sang just now was not the original children's song, but a modified version. It was exactly the same as the lyrics that Joy had changed herself!
Qiao Anxiao was shocked by his overly intense reaction. He wanted to struggle free, but he did not let go.
”Isn't this just an ordinary nursery rhyme? Why do you have such a huge reaction? ”
”Your lyrics are wrong.” Gu Nan City calmed down a little, but still did not let go of her.
Qiao Anyun disapproved of his words and said, ”So what if I'm wrong? Anyway, I was just casually singing it, so why bother so much about whether the lyrics are right or wrong?” She looked at Gu Nan City's hand and asked, ”Can you let go of me first?”
Gu Nan Cheng also felt that he had lost his composure and slowly let go of her wrist. Qiao Anyun thought that this matter was over, but he didn't expect him to ask her: ”Do you know Ye Huayan?”
She was stunned when she heard Ye Huayan's name again. That familiar feeling didn't diminish in the slightest, but no matter what, she couldn't remember it. In the end, the woman just shook her head and said that she didn't know her.
Don't know him?
Impossible!
Gu Nan City was a little out of control, he grabbed Qiao Anxiao's shoulder, no longer caring about the slightest bit of reason, ”Those lyrics you just sang, only Huaiyan would sing like this! Do you know her? Do you know where she is? She's not dead, is she? ”
Seeing Gu Nan City's face so close to him, Qiao An Yun felt dizzy and many scenes immediately appeared in his mind. However, in just a moment, they quickly flashed by like a slide show.
”Let go … I feel so bad! ” Qiao Anyun wanted to struggle free from him, but he felt weak all over. His vision went black and he fainted.
In the company, Fu received a call from Wu saying that Qiao An Xia had fainted and was being treated at the North City Hospital, so he immediately rushed to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, he saw Gu Nan City standing outside the ward with its stubbled and haggard face.
In an instant, he was furious. He walked up to Gu Nan City and coldly asked: ”What's going on? How could you be with her? ”
Gu Nan Cheng explained: ”I met her today at the orphanage. As for why she fainted, it should be the sequela of an accident.” After he finished explaining, Gu Nan City quickly asked another question, ”Did Qiao An Yan previously know Huan Yan?”
Fu Siming was slightly startled, but he didn't let Gu Nan City see any clues.
”Joanna can sing songs that only a happy person can sing!”
”You misheard me.”
Gu Nan City insisted: ”I can't possibly hear wrongly! Furthermore, there was no mistake that the lyrics were changed by Huaiyan herself! How can Qiao Anyan sing? ”
When Fu Siming heard this, he was thoroughly enraged. His long and narrow eyes suddenly narrowed as they reflected a trace of coldness and darkness.
”Gu Nan City, you are my friend. I also think that you have just lost someone you love and are overly sad. But what did a song mean? You'd better stay away from my wife! ”
