Li Xi patted herself gently, and Ruosheng realized that she was indeed a little anxious just now, and then slowly stopped.
I was really too eager to know the result just now, so I was really excited.
Taking a deep breath, clenching her fists tightly, Ruosheng kept telling herself in her heart, calm down, don't be too excited, take your time.[
"Later, I found out you were pregnant. Then I suddenly thought of something..."
"whats the matter?"
Ruosheng grabbed Li Xi's hand and looked at her with bright eyes.
Intuition tells Ruosheng that this matter is definitely not simple, and it must be closely related to the final outcome.
"Don't be anxious, I'll speak slowly. Later, I suddenly remembered that one day before the car accident, you suddenly came to me to borrow money. I didn't have any money at that time, so I only gave you a hundred yuan and asked you what you wanted the money for. You were still mysterious and refused to say anything. Finally, I asked you several times before you said you were going to a bar or something."
"bar?"
"Yes, it's a bar. I thought you were joking at the time. You've never been to a place like that. Why would you go to a place like that?"
"Hmm, what next."
"Then, when I went to find you the next day, you were mumbling, as if something bad had happened, but you just refused to tell me no matter how I asked."
"Then what happened to me? Why did I go to the bar?"
"Listen to me and speak slowly."
"Uh-huh!"
Why do I want to go to a bar? That kind of place is my least favorite. If it weren't for making money, I wouldn't go there.
Is this the current situation? At that time, I should have been insulated from this kind of place, how could it be possible?
Did you go there by yourself? Did something happen inside?
"We are together every day, and you are in despair every day. It seems that there is something else you are hiding from me. I remember that the day you had the accident, you seemed to have accidentally mentioned Brother Scar or something... Then I felt that something was fishy. Went to check..."
"Then, what did you find out?"
He clenched his fists tightly and looked at Li Xi eagerly.
More and more questions kept popping up in my mind, why did I go to the bar, why did I have to borrow money for some reason, and why. What about Brother Scar, who is he? What is my relationship with him? [
"Ruosheng, are you sure you are really mentally prepared?"
Suddenly Li Xi stopped and looked at Ruosheng seriously.
Ruosheng had never seen Li Xi look so serious before and was startled, but nodded quickly.
"Well, I'm ready."
Yes, she is ready.
Although... although she was still a little scared, since it was her own matter, she must know.
"Okay, now that you are ready, I will tell you. But... Ruosheng, I still want to remind you that if I were you, I would never want to know. Since some things have passed, let me Let it pass. Since God allows you to forget and forget, sometimes it is also a gift."
"I'm really ready, just tell me."
Ruosheng didn't understand why Li Xi suddenly said so many strange things, but she really wanted to know.
This matter has a great impact on me, and I must know it.
"Okay, in that case I'll tell you. Later I found out about Brother Scar. It turned out that he was a gangster on the street who abducted and trafficked women from good families. Later, I found out about you from him. matter."
Li Xi looked at Ruosheng as he spoke word by word, his eyes looking at Ruosheng with sympathy.
Under her sympathetic gaze, Ruosheng felt like she couldn't breathe, but she still looked at Li Xi firmly.
Now that I have decided to know, I will definitely be able to bear it.
"Do you remember when your father was with that woman?"
Ruosheng's heart was high, waiting for Li Xi to tell her what happened, but she didn't expect that she would change the topic and talk about her father.
In an instant, Ruosheng's heart fell from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley. Although she felt an indescribable loss, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She knew that the woman Li Xi was talking about was her father's current wife, her stepmother.
"Well, I remember, it should be... it should be around the time I had a car accident."
Ruosheng lowered his head thoughtfully, thought for a while, and then said lightly.
She couldn't remember the specific time, but it must have been at that time.
Because in subsequent memories, that woman has always been there, and there is no memory of her in the past.[
Then she must have appeared in the section that I forgot about.
"Well, that's true. But do you know why that woman was willing to follow your father? Why didn't she show up to play for a long time but just showed up around the time of your car accident?"
Li Xi looked at Ruosheng and continued to ask.
"This...I don't know this."
Why did that woman want to be with her father? Ruosheng couldn't help but frown.
To be honest, she hadn't really thought about this issue in these years, and it was really strange to think about it now.
What do you say about that woman... She was indeed very beautiful when she was older, and... she was very picky about everything, and she was also very judgmental about herself. You can tell at a glance that she is a pampered woman.
But her father had nothing, no money, no power, not even a stable place to live, and he only loved gambling. Why should she follow her father?
The more he thought about it, the weirder he felt, and Ruosheng's brows couldn't help but frown more tightly.
If she were still fifteen or sixteen years old now, she would tell herself that there is nothing like it, this is love, and she was no longer the little girl at that age who dreamed of love.
Reality told her that when a woman is with a man, she must have a purpose, and it is impossible for her not to really care about anything, as long as she is with you.
"Have you ever thought about how weird this is?"
"I never thought about it before... I never thought about it before."
Looking at Li Xi, Ruosheng felt a little embarrassed.
Yes, she had indeed never thought about it before.
She rarely thinks about this kind of thing, otherwise she wouldn't have taken Li Li alone for so many years. You haven't thought about what kind of person his father is.
He wouldn't vaguely recall a name. He had a vague impression that he had been with him before, so he thought he was Li Li's father.
"You... love, what do you want me to say about you? Are you too overthinking or what?"
Li Xi shook her head nervously, a flash of understanding quickly flashed in her eyes.
Sure enough, she guessed it right. She had indeed never thought about it, but fortunately she had never thought about it, otherwise she would not be able to make up her own story.
"Well...I do...hehe..."
Ruosheng couldn't help but blush, looking ashamed.
Yes, now that I think about it, if it had been someone, I would have already started to have doubts.
Maybe he already knows the truth, but he...but he has been muddling along like this for so many years.
"Hey, forget it, I'll tell you the truth."
Li Xi pretended to sigh in frustration and looked at Ruosheng with a look of hatred.
Ruosheng couldn't help but feel ashamed under her gaze, and lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look at her face.
"Your father, you should know that she doesn't like anything except gambling. So she doesn't have any money at all. Back then, he met that woman, and that woman looked a lot like your mother."
"What? What did you say?"
"That woman looks very much like your mother, so your father fell in love with her at first sight."
"Oh my God!"
That woman looks like her mother? This was the first time Ruosheng heard such words in so many years. She was so frightened that she fell to the ground with her eyes wide open.
How is it possible, how is it possible, that that woman actually looks like his mother?
"It's impossible, it's definitely impossible. How can she look like my mother!"
Ruosheng couldn't help but shake her head. This was impossible. She wouldn't believe it. How could she look like her mother? Isn't this a joke?
Although she has never seen her mother in person, no one can accept the sudden statement that she looks like her mother, right?
Especially if Ruosheng really didn't like that person at all.
"I'm not lying to you. I was shocked at first. But then... forget it, just look at this..."
Li Xi sighed, took out two photos from his pocket and handed them to Ruosheng.
"Originally I wanted to find a chance to give it to you, but then I thought about it for many years and didn't give it to you. This time Yuechu and I were leaving, so I thought we'd just tear it up. I didn't expect to meet you here, either. It’s considered fate.”
"This...is..."
Ruosheng looked at the photos in his hand in horror. The two photos were from different eras, and the people in the photos were also of different ages.
One was still white, and the woman on it looked to be in her early twenties at most, with an innocent and childish look on her face.
The other picture...she could tell at a glance that it was that woman, the woman who had completely snatched her father away from her.
"One of them is your mother, and the other is that woman."
"No...it won't...it won't..."
Two photos, from different years, and the people in the photos are also of different ages.
But...but the two faces are so damn similar, no, not like...but, they are exactly the same, as if they were carved from the same mold.
Ruosheng was so frightened that she couldn't believe what she saw.
"Haha, it's normal for you not to believe it. I was also shocked when I saw it."
"You...where did you get it?"
Holding the photo tightly, Ruosheng looked at Li Xi.
She has never seen her mother in person or in photos.
