Lu Zhiyuan's face darkened slightly. He watched her grow from a sparkling young girl, encountering various injustices, and then slowly being worn away, becoming paranoid and gloomy. He felt sorry for her more than anyone else.
The last time he saw Gu Ci smile sincerely was one year when Gu Ci was playing the violin, enjoying herself and being happy. She learned a violin, and he was her first audience. He felt happiness in her music.
Later, the violin was destroyed and she lost her smile. From then on, she became more and more paranoid and gloomy year by year. He watched helplessly as she suffered injustice, without crying out for pain or asking for help. He clearly
He was always by her side, but she never called for help and endured all the grief alone.
Gu Ci looked out the window with a chuckle, not caring about Lu Zhiyuan's silence.
Lu Zhiyuan, your eyes can't deceive, you like me, although I don't know why you keep rejecting me, but I am willing to wait.
Anyway...I've been waiting for many years.
Nurse Zhang's family lived in a community on the seaside. After resigning that year, she came to Haicheng and settled there. She still worked as a nurse in the People's Hospital and gave birth to a son and a daughter.
Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan rang the doorbell, and Nurse Zhang took the day off. They were at home, and when they saw Gu Ci's face changed drastically, they hurriedly tried to close the door, but Gu Ci violently kicked it open.
She stood cold and rusty at the door, looking at Nurse Zhang who fell to the ground, "Zhang Xiaomei, what are you afraid of?"
Lu Zhiyuan followed Gu Ci into the room and closed the door. Zhang Xiaomei was nearly forty years old, well-maintained, fair-skinned, and still charming. When she saw Gu Ci coming to see her, she knew that the matter could not be hidden.
But she refused to admit it. No matter how Gu Ci asked, she didn't dare to admit, "I'm going to call the police because you broke into a house without permission."
She took the phone and wanted to call the police, but Gu Ci said, "Okay, the police are here just in time, and the incident of the hospital's transplantation was investigated together."
Gu Ci took out the transfer records between Lu Man and her.
Zhang Xiaomei's legs went weak and she fell down on the chair.
"In fifteen years, a total of 2 million has been transferred to you." Gu Ci leaned aside lazily and kicked the chair, "Tell me, how did she instigate you back then? Since I can find it, I naturally know about Gu Chuyun
She is her biological daughter."
With the evidence in hand, Zhang Xiaomei could not deny it. She painfully confided the truth to Gu Ci, "Back then, Jiang Mingyue and Lu Man were sent to the hospital together. Lu Man was not the first child and gave birth within an hour. Jiang Mingyue had difficulty in giving birth and finally had a caesarean section.
The baby girl was born in the middle of the night. The adults were all concerned about Jiang Mingyue. Jiang Minghua and Gu Wenliang started fighting again. The hospital was in chaos. Lu Man found me and asked me to exchange the identity tags of the two babies.
She gave me 500,000 yuan as soon as it was finished. My mother was suffering from uremia at the time and spent almost all the money in the family. She gave me the money and was willing to find a kidney source for me, so I agreed with all my heart. Miss Gu Ci, I
I am so sorry."
Lu Zhiyuan recorded the voice, feeling sullen in his heart. For a mere 500,000 yuan, she sold her soul and made Gu Ci suffer injustice since childhood and be deprived of everything.
Damn it!
Gu Ci was very calm, with no wave in her eyes, "What happened later, why did she still transfer money to you?"
Zhang Xiaomei felt embarrassed and had no choice but to reveal the truth, "After I came to Haicheng, I married my current husband and lived a very stable life. However, he got into gambling and borrowed loan sharks. I had no choice but to go to Lu Man and ask for help."
She helps.”
So, she met Gu Ci.
"Money is really important, and personality can also be sold, right?"
Zhang Xiaomei burst into tears, "You have never experienced the pain of having no money. Of course you can calmly say that I betrayed my personality for money. I want to save my mother and survive. All living beings suffer. For money, I will really do anything."
, those who stick to their character are just because the temptation of money is not big enough.”
Lu Zhiyuan frowned, feeling sorry for the injustice Gu Ci had experienced, "A crime is a crime, don't make excuses!"
Zhang Xiaomei crawled on the ground and knelt down towards Gu Ci, "Miss Gu Ci, I still have a pair of children to raise. Please be kind and let me go."
"Leave it to the law!" After Gu Ci received the evidence, he left calmly, followed closely by Lu Zhiyuan.
Lu Zhiyuan drove to the beach with her. The clouds were thick and it looked like it was going to rain. Such as Lu Zhiyuan's state of mind, he did not expect that Lu Man would be so vicious and the truth would be so embarrassing.
"Do you hate her?"
"Lu Man?" Gu Ci shook her head, "I don't hate her, it's meaningless."
The people she hates are Gu Chuyun and Lu Shijie. Lu Man cannot make any waves, and there is no point in tracing the past. She wants to avoid the tragedy of this life.
But her mood was still very complicated. If she had not exchanged the child, the Jiang family would definitely fight for custody rights. Whenever Lu Man and Gu Wenliang treated her badly, the Jiang family would take her away. Her life would be different. There would be a
She was doted on by her brother, and she also had uncles, aunts and grandmothers, and her grandfather loved her.
You won't grow up alone, and you won't be in jail.
"Don't be sad, Gu Ci, you are not alone." Lu Zhiyuan hugged her from behind, and his embrace was always warm and reliable to her.
A storm was coming, the sea and sky were as dark as ink, and strong winds blew across the undercurrent of the sea, sweeping away the dangers before the storm. Gu Ci held Lu Zhiyuan's hand.
She is not afraid of the undercurrent of the sea in front of her, because behind her is the majestic mountain peak.

A typhoon struck and the plane was grounded. Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ci found a seaside hotel. There was only one presidential suite left. A bolt of lightning struck the sky and thunder rolled. Lu Zhiyuan stood by the window and raised his hand to look at his watch. It was half past five.
The rain was pouring, the wind was strong, and the sea was turbulent. His eyes were as dark as the sky, rolling with muffled thunder in the sky. In his ears was the video of Gu Ci and Gu Ziyu. Gu Ci and Gu Ziyu made a video call and asked him to go to bed early.
They would go home tomorrow. Gu Ziyu also saw Lu Zhiyuan's back from the video and knew that they were together.
Gu Ziyu said, "Okay, Mom, I'll wait for you to come home."
Gu Ci hung up the video and looked at Lu Zhiyuan, remembering his hesitation when booking a room. If the typhoon was not approaching and the heavy rain had not come, Lu Zhiyuan would have taken her to find another hotel and book two rooms.
She remembered that after she was released from prison in her previous life, Lu Zhiyuan took her to a hot spring hotel to relax, and there was only one room left. That night, they sat by the window and had a heart-to-heart talk over wine. She confided in her the hardships and unwillingness in the prison for the past five years. She thought
Revenge, wanting Lu Shijie and Gu Chuyun to die. That night, Lu Zhiyuan was extraordinarily silent and calm, like a mute listener. She was so emotional that she fainted in his arms and cried. He coaxed her to sleep, and she pestered him to sing a song.
Nursery rhymes, find peace in his singing.
The next day, Lu Zhiyuan said that he deliberately told the girl at the counter that there was only one room. He was traveling and rarely had time to cultivate relationships. He wanted to have a romantic relationship, so how could he book two rooms to spoil the scenery?
