Alluring City

Chapter 073 Gu Xizhi, True Face

Hearing this, Dugu Xun felt even angrier. Is this an apology?No matter how it sounds, it sounds like an accusation, okay?

Dugu sighed with both laughter and laughter, and said: "Xiao Wu, this is Nanman." The subtext is, restrain yourself, okay?

Even he knows to restrain himself, Xiao Wu, stop messing around!

Gu Xiaowu raised his head, and stood up straight, "Of course I know this is Nanman, do you think I'm so stupid as to think this is Tianchen or Yan Kingdom?"

"Let's discuss this issue for later, come in with me now." Dugu Xun suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Gu Xiaowu's arm with one hand, and pulled her in.

Gu Xiaowu looked at Su Yunqing eagerly, and then let Duguxun drag her away.

It is rare to see Ah Xun like this, so she never struggled.

Su Yunqing hooked the corners of her lips, she really never thought that she would be so completely ignored.

With such a big living person standing here, the two brothers of the Dugu family didn't even notice her.

Is it because her sense of existence is too low, or are they all only focusing on Xiao Wu, forgetting that she, Su Yunqing, is still here?

Looking in the direction of the palace gate, she found that Duguyi, who was still at the gate of the palace, was no longer there. Su Yunqing smiled lightly, shook her head, turned and left.

"Ah Xun, what's the matter with you?" Gu Xiaowu finally couldn't help asking why Dugu Xun was so abnormal.

In the past, Ah Xun would not drag her away so disregarding her image, not to mention that they are in Nanman's palace now, and she still bears the name of Duguchen's concubine.

Dugu Xun ignored her and led her all the way to the side hall.

At the door, he finally let go of her hand.

"He's inside, you guys have a good talk." After leaving these words, Dugu Xun left in a hurry.

Gu Xiaowu walked in suspiciously, and stopped immediately after seeing the people sitting in the side hall.

She stood at the door in a daze, forgot to move forward, and forgot to turn around and walk away.

Gu Xizhi was sitting in the room, beside him was the half mask that he had put on his face before.

"Why didn't you come in?" Gu Xizhi asked with a smile.

This is the first time in the past 14 years that he has taken off his mask in front of a person, and this person is their daughter.

Gu Xiaowu lowered his eyes, unable to tell what it was like in his heart.

As she expected, he is indeed a rare handsome man. Although he is 40 or [-] years old, the years don't seem to have left too many marks on his face, just like her mother.

But she couldn't be happy. Hasn't she already denied his identity?Now come to take off the mask and show her what to do?

"Qingcheng, can I call you Qingcheng?" Seeing that she was silent, Gu Xizhi asked cautiously, with a trace of expectation in her eyes.

In fact, he was worried that she would refuse.

It's just that although Gu Xiaowu didn't refuse, he didn't agree either.

But Gu Xizhi was inexplicably relieved, at least this time he didn't refuse like before, didn't he?

"After the hunting meeting, let's visit your mother together!" Although Gu Xizhi was smiling, her eyes were full of pain that could not be hidden.

He and her hadn't seen each other for 14 years, and even the things she entrusted Qingcheng to him were all written in a letter and given to him.

At that time, he would abandon Qingcheng because he was a little annoyed by her actions, and he was afraid that he would think of her when he saw this child.

Moreover, he also felt that he was not worthy of letting the child call him daddy.

After all, from the time the child was born until now, he has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father for a day.

"What are you trying to say?" Gu Xiaowu looked up at Gu Xizhi, without any expression on his face.

"Qingcheng, would you believe me if I said that I just wanted to make up for you?" Gu Xizhi asked.

He really owed her too much, even if he used this life to make up for it, he didn't feel it was enough.

"I believe." Gu Xiaowu nodded without any hesitation.

Gu Xizhi's eyes were full of surprises, before he was happy enough, Gu Xiaowu's next sentence knocked him back to the original place.

"I believe it, but I don't need it." She really doesn't need to make up for it.

Now that I know how to make up for it, why did I go there in the first place?Why did he go when her mother just passed away?

Gu Xizhi was startled, but suddenly laughed flamboyantly.

"Whether you need it or not is Qingcheng's business, but whether you want to make up for it is my business. I will use the rest of my life to make up for what I owed you before." For so many years, he relied on being able to meet her one day Faith survived well.

But now, she is gone, but they left behind their daughter, so he should stay to make up for his daughter for the rest of his life.

If he can't even do this, then he really might as well die.

"What you want has nothing to do with me." Gu Xiaowu was still lukewarm, it was really difficult for her to accept him so quickly from her heart.

If he had appeared when the mother passed away, perhaps they would not be what they are now.

But there will be no ifs in this world, if there are, everything will no longer be so precious.

Suddenly, Gu Xiaowu's hand unconsciously touched the token in her sleeve, she looked at Gu Xizhi suddenly, and asked, "You said you want to make it up to me?"

Gu Xizhi didn't understand what made Gu Xiaowu change suddenly, but she still nodded.

"Since that's the case, doesn't that mean you'll tell me whatever I ask?" Those who don't use resources are idiots, and they have to check anyway, so it's better to ask him to see if he knows.

Gu Xizhi suddenly had a bad premonition, but she still bit the bullet and nodded in agreement.

Gu Xiaowu turned around, closed the door, and walked forward.

She took out the token she found from her mother's room, and handed it to Gu Xizhi.

"Do you recognize this token?"

Gu Xizhi took the token and held it in his hand to examine it carefully.

Looking at the token in his hand, and then thinking of some things he had found out in recent years, the uncertainty in his heart immediately turned into affirmation.

"If I'm not wrong, this token should come from Holy Spirit Island, and it should be owned by people with high status." This token is so delicately crafted that it doesn't seem like ordinary people can have it.

Just, where did this kid get this token?Could it be...

Someone of high status?So, is it true that Niangqin is from Holy Spirit Island?And the status in the Holy Spirit Island is not low?

If this is the case, then the poison on the mother's body is inseparable from the people of Holy Spirit Island.

"Do you know why my mother died?" Gu Xiaowu looked at Gu Xizhi and asked.

With her mother's personality, she will definitely not take the initiative to tell anyone about the suffering she has endured.

Gu Xizhi looked at Gu Xiaowu in surprise, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did she die?"

Although she said in her heart that she was ill, but since the child Qingcheng deliberately mentioned it, it might not be as simple as a long illness.

"Poison, a poison called 'Drunken Moon'. It is said that this poison comes from Holy Spirit Island." The world's evaluation of him was so high, she couldn't believe that he had never doubted anything.

Gu Xizhi tightened her hand holding the token, and her eyes became sharper.

Although he found out that the reason why she left him 14 years ago was related to the Holy Spirit Island, he never thought that her death was also caused by the people of the Holy Spirit Island.

When he was investigating Holy Spirit Island, he had heard of the 'drunk moon', and of course he knew about the symptoms of the poison, but he really never expected that she, whom he had always been obsessed with, would suffer from the 'drunk moon' all the time. 'The torment caused.

However, he has always deliberately spent all his time on business, and he has never even visited her!

Thinking about it now, he really deserves to be damned for letting her bear so much alone.

"It looks like you know about Zuiyue?" Gu Xiaowu said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "I didn't know that at first, but I dug up my mother's grave with my own hands more than a month ago, and that's how I confirmed my mother's grave." I really died of poisoning."

If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would not dig the grave to confirm it in order to let the mother get the so-called rest, right?

But in her opinion, if she didn't take revenge for her mother, how could her mother really rest in peace?

Even if mother doesn't blame Holy Spirit Island, she can't do it.

They took away her mother, how could she just act like nothing happened?

And from Su Yue's reaction, she can roughly infer how vicious the people on Holy Spirit Island are, otherwise, how could Su Yue be so afraid of it after leaving there for so many years?Don't even hesitate to leave and don't want to mention the matter of Whitsunday Island?

Since Holy Spirit Island is such an existence, why not destroy it?

Gu Xizhi looked at Gu Xiaowu in disbelief, the hand holding the token loosened, tightened and then loosened, with a complicated expression.

This child dug his own mother's grave with his own hands?Is it to confirm whether she died of poison?

Gu Xizhi lowered her head, feeling very complicated.

He's not Qingcheng, so he doesn't know what kind of mood this child had in digging up his mother's grave.

He only knew that if it was him, he would definitely not be able to do it, even if it was to confirm the cause of her death, he would definitely not be able to dig her grave with his own hands.

"I'm sorry." Gu Xizhi said suddenly.

"I'm sorry?" Gu Xiaowu raised his eyebrows, and looked at Gu Xizhi with some amusement, "Is this sorry for me, or for my mother?"

Gu Xizhi was speechless immediately, whether it was Qingcheng or Qingcheng's mother, he had done things that were sorry for them.

But how could just saying sorry erase everything he had done?

Gu Xiaowu suddenly reached out and took back the token in Gu Xizhi's hand. She put the token in her sleeve and said coldly: "If you really feel sorry, then go to my mother's grave to repent. But before that Please put the mask back on first, even if you don’t want to wear the mask again, please be patient, I don’t want you to be captured and taken as a husband before my mother sees you.”

Although there is a trace of resentment towards him in her heart, she has to admit that her father is really a dragon and phoenix among men. Although he is nearly 40 years old, even if he stands with a handsome man like Duguchen, he will definitely not be a father. It will not be inferior at all, on the contrary, it will be more mature than Duguchen.
