Following Aunt Hua to Qinghe Bay, and walking into the place where she had lived, a breath of hers came to his face, and in an instant, it hit the bottom of his heart.
"Young mistress?" Aunt Hua walked into the bedroom, found no one, and pushed open the baby room.
When he saw that place, it felt like a thorn had been stabbed into his heart, and he was so painful that he was dripping with blood.
He walked in silently and looked at Little Mint's crib, the little quilt she had slept on, the little pillow she had slept on, and the toys beside her, all of which reminded him clearly that he had taken them away
His daughter's healthy life was still in such an extremely cruel way! He watched his daughter's birth with his own eyes, personally held her soft and weak body, and personally sent her to the operating table.
He picked up a yellow duck stuffed toy beside her pillow, held it tightly in his hand, raised it and put it against his cheek. Under the extremely painful expression, he could not conceal the regret and sadness.
He will never be able to forgive himself in this life!
"The eldest young master..." Aunt Hua stood at the door, and she was very sad when she saw the eldest young master's heartbroken look.
If she understood that the price of sincerity was so heavy, then she would rather the young master continue to hate him, at least, both of them would not suffer so much.
Gu Wangchuan slowly turned around and put the stuffed toy in his hand into his arms. Aunt Hua wiped away her tears and said, "The eldest young lady is not at home, should we ask the second young master...ah, I almost forgot!
"
As if thinking of something, Aunt Hua hurriedly walked out, came to the next door, and rang the doorbell, "Second Young Master?"
Gu Wangchuan also came to the door, "Why is Xi Cen here?"
"The second young master bought the house here in order to facilitate the care of the eldest mistress..."
After Aunt Hua finished speaking, she realized that she had made a mistake and immediately stopped talking. Even she could see the second young master's thoughts about the eldest young master, so how could the eldest young master not notice it? There is always a taboo between uncles and sisters-in-law, especially
At this juncture, it is easy to get into trouble, which is not good for anyone.
Gu Wangchuan pursed his thin lips and leaned weakly against the door without making a sound.
He just stared at the closed door, as if trying to cut a hole in it.
After ringing the doorbell for a long time, no one answered. Aunt Hua muttered in confusion and was about to call Gu Xicen, but Gu Wangchuan said, "I'll do it."
Holding the phone, he narrowed his eyes, but after hesitating for a moment, he pressed his brother's number. If he hadn't been helpless, he would never have asked his brother about his wife's whereabouts.
Of course, if the relationship between him and Lin Yuer still exists.
The phone rang for a long time and finally got connected.
"Brother." Gu Xicen seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and his voice was completely strange. He was as calm as a pool of blue spring water, quiet and calm.
"Where is she?" Gu Wangchuan asked straight to the point without mincing words, as if he had already made up his mind that Lin Yuer would be with him.
Gu Xicen was silent for a moment and replied softly, "Brother, she doesn't want you to know."
One sentence made Gu Wangchuan angry, "Xicen, do you want to take her away now?!"
"It's not so much that I took her away, it's more that she doesn't want to stay where she is." Gu Xicen's tone was still calm, as if she was recounting a painless fact, "The memories there are too sad and not suitable for her.
"
Gu Wangchuan gritted his teeth, turned around, walked to her bedroom, and opened the closet door. Sure enough, he saw that the place was neatly tidied, and even her personal belongings were gone.
She didn't even give him a chance to regret and just walked away?
He narrowed his eyes. At this moment, his chest felt swollen and painful, but his heart felt heavy with the pain of missing something.
For the first time, I experienced the true meaning of loss, and it was actually more profound than I imagined.
Is that woman named Lin Yuer, the woman he has always hated, the woman he hurt to the bone, going to completely disappear from his life?!
No, it can't be done!
He hasn't had time to make up for it, and he hasn't had time to spend the rest of his life atone for his sins. How could she leave?
She didn't even know... didn't know he...
"Brother," Gu Xicen's calm voice came over the phone again, "Give her some time. No matter what kind of pain it is, she needs time to accept it."
"Gu Xicen!" Gu Wangchuan gritted his teeth, feeling unspeakable anger. Unfortunately, he couldn't find a reasonable way to vent his anger. His whole body was about to be ignited by the fire, explode and be destroyed.
"She is your sister-in-law! How could you take her away? Do you know, she is still my wife!!" Finally, he yelled, facing his brother, yelling words that maybe even he would despise him.
Since he knew she was his wife, why was he so seriously injured?
Gu Wangchuan, do you know that you are cruel and selfish?
However, now he no longer cares about criticizing himself. He only knows that when she leaves, she will disappear from his life. He will never see her warm and peaceful appearance again, and will never feel her
With her cautious tone, I can no longer appreciate her unique confidence when working...
Everything is just like the flowers in the moon mirror in the water, and the afterimages are floating in the blink of an eye.
"Brother, I will never forget her identity." Gu Xicen said clearly, "I remember that she is your wife, and I also remember that you are my most respected elder brother. So, I can swear to you that in addition to taking care of
Protect her, I won't go too far."
He made the oath word for word.
Gu Wangchuan's frown was almost twisted into a thin line, his expression was struggling and tangled, and the lack in his heart was tormenting him. He obviously wanted to ask for her address, and then immediately fly to that brat.
, brought her back, but he couldn't ask a word at this time.
He understands her pain, and he also understands that if she continues to stay here, she will be tortured by the painful memories of the past and go crazy.
His eyes flashed back to her expression when she was holding the knife that day, so hateful and so desperate.
He knew that if she stabbed him with that knife, her life would be ruined, ruined by her desire for revenge.
So, he did it for her.
After suppressing all his thoughts, Gu Wangchuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice to the person on the phone with an extremely firm and decisive tone, "One year! My deadline is only one year! After one year,
I will go and bring her back myself!"
Even if a year later, she would still choose the most extreme way of revenge, and he would be willing to do so.
After waiting for a long time, Gu Xicen responded, "I understand."
Gu Wangchuan slowly closed his eyes. He knew how difficult this decision was for him now.
One year was the self-salvation he gave her, and it was also the darkest punishment he gave himself.
Although he clearly regretted it, he could do nothing but wait for the end of time.
Even though he missed her, he couldn't do anything but suffered day and night.
This is how he can foresee the next year at this moment, a year without her.
Opening his eyes, his frantic and lonely eyes were covered with coldness, "Xicen, don't forget what you just said."
After hanging up the phone, he leaned against the wall exhausted, with his head hanging down and his hands clenched tightly.
"The eldest young master..." Aunt Hua approached him, with a hint of tolerance in her complex eyes. When she came to Gu's house, it happened to be when Gu Wangchuan's father left home. At that time, the eldest young master showed strength beyond that of children of the same age.
, at the same time, he is very aloof and has a strong desire to protect himself and his younger brother.
But even then, he didn't look as painful or struggling as he does now.
Is it because you really know you are wrong, or is it because you really love?
Aunt Hua sighed, "All we can do now is wait patiently for the eldest mistress to come back."
Gu Wangchuan raised his head, his eyes slightly red, "Will she? Will she come back?"
If he lets go for a year, it is equivalent to losing a year. One year is neither long nor short, and too many stories can easily happen. Will she come back at that time?
Although she couldn't bear it, Aunt Hua still pointedly pointed out, "Even if he doesn't come back, it will be the result that the young master should bear."
"Yes," Gu Wangchuan lowered his eyes again, and the corners of his eyes gradually became moist, "I deserve it."
Aunt Hua didn't say much, other than helplessness and regret.
If the eldest young mistress only feels the pain of losing her daughter and hates the eldest young master, then the eldest young master now feels the pain of losing his daughter and hates himself. Comparing the two, which one is more important depends on one's heart.

Gu Xicen gently put down the phone, sat there quietly, and closed her eyes.
Just now, he personally made a promise to his eldest brother.
I will only take care of her and protect her.
That's all.
Issues that have never been considered carefully are now laid out in front of us.
She is his elder sister-in-law, even if there are countless love and hatred between her and her elder brother, she is still his wife.
She is the wife of the person he respects most.
What he can do, just like what he promised on the phone, cannot be exceeded.
"Xi Cen,"
Misha opened the door and came in, "You can eat now! I did all the cooking today!"
Seeing that he didn't respond, she walked over and grabbed his arm, "Let's go, get down quickly, we're all waiting for you!"
He stood up passively, "Where is Xiaoyue?"
"Oh, your sister-in-law, she is in the yard!" Misha suddenly came over and asked curiously, "Xicen, your sister-in-law is really strange! Is she withdrawn? She doesn't like to talk to others.
No matter how I chat with her, she is always thinking about her own things! Oh, by the way, did she have a quarrel with your elder brother? That’s why she came to France with you? "
The more Misha analyzed it, the more she felt that what she said made sense, and she nodded with a smile, "That must be it! Then you have to persuade your elder brother, there are so many handsome men in France, it would be better for him to take his wife back as soon as possible!"
Gu Xicen's eyes dropped. When he walked downstairs, he naturally looked outside the door. Sure enough, he saw a thin figure there. That lonely look made him feel pity...
