Mr. Gu, my wife went to the men's department to register for you again.

Gu Jingyan paused, What kind of person?

There was a short man, probably in his forties or fifties. I couldn't see his face clearly. He was always wearing a mask and a hat, and his eyes looked a little older.

He said he was here to donate money, but he kept asking about Aunt He and Sister Xing. When he learned that Aunt He passed away, he looked a little sad. Later, he donated tens of thousands of yuan. When he left, he asked the dean for the cemetery where Aunt He was buried. Address, it felt like he knew Aunt He, but when the dean asked him, he said that he had only heard about it, and he was a very strange person.

Gu Jingyan frowned.

A short middle-aged man?

He searched in his mind for people who might be related to the He family, but after thinking for a long time, he had no clue.

Did he say anything else?

Kong Zheng thought for a while and said, Nothing else. I just looked through some photos of Aunt He and Sister Xing. When I left, I said I would come back later.

Gu Jingyan paused, and suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be...A Xing's biological father?

Just as I was thinking about it, Qiao Ruoxing's voice came from far away, Come over quickly and help. You two can't bake it!

Gu Jingyan came to his senses, patted Kong Zheng on the arm, and said calmly, Let's work.

Qiao Ruoxing teased the little ones in the orphanage with gifts, saying that they would watch the show first and give out gifts if they performed well. The children were a little shy at first, but gradually, they relaxed completely and came forward to perform actively.

Gu Jingyan sat next to her and watched her clumsy performance, showing that she should deny or not admit it when being exposed by others, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

Mr. Gu.

The old dean's voice came from the side.

Gu Jingyan turned around and saw the dean holding a glass of wine and looking at him kindly, Can I offer you a toast?

Gu Jingyan hurriedly took it with both hands and whispered, You are an elder. I can't bear it. It's my duty to respect you.

The old dean shook his head, If it weren't for you, how could I have managed these children till now? You can bear it.

Gu Jingyan paused, then smiled. Although the donation was anonymous, the dean was not confused. Apart from people related to Qiao Ruoxing, how many people in Jiangcheng could afford a large donation?

He didn't speak any more and took it.

The dean touched him and said, It's up to you.

Just say that and do it.

Gu Jingyan didn't really want to drink. He knew how much he drank. It was rare to be with Ah Xing. He didn't want to get drunk and lose consciousness and miss the time together.

But since the elders had all done it, it would be inappropriate for him as a junior not to drink. Thinking of this, he drank it all in one gulp.

The dean poured him another glass, I'm offering this glass to you on behalf of Yurou.

Gu Jingyan was stunned and suddenly felt ashamed. He didn't help much with He Yurou's funeral. Instead, because of his negligence and connivance, Ah Xing was left alone at that time.

I... Gu Jingyan pursed his lips, I deserve it.

The dean said, But you took good care of Ruoxing. In the two years after Yurou's accident, there was almost no smile on her face. Even if she smiled, she had a dead air all over her body. She didn't have the vigor of a young person. She After marrying you, my smiles gradually started to increase. I believe that Yurou’s biggest last wish is to see Ruoxing find a good home, unlike herself, who was entrusted to someone else.”

Gu Jingyan said nothing, raised the cup and drank it all in one gulp.

The dean drank with him and filled it up for him again, This third cup is about a secret about Ah Xing. Can I ask you for a favor?

Gu Jingyan looked stern and said in a deep voice, Say.

The dean glanced at Qiao Ruoxing, who was playing with the children, and whispered, Ruoxing is not Yurou's biological daughter. She is not an illegitimate daughter.

Gu Jingyan was startled, and his face suddenly became serious, How did you know?

The dean lowered his eyes and said, I accompanied Yurou to do the paternity test between Ruoxing and Yurou. I promised that Yurou would die in her belly, but now, she is no longer here. The only person in the world that she couldn't let go of was Ruoxing.

As her trusted partner, I have limited personal abilities. Whether it is work or marriage, I can't help her much. I know that wealthy families have many rules and attach great importance to their family status. I am telling you this, just because I don't want Ruoxing's so-called The origin of an illegitimate daughter has become a gap between you. Even if you don't end up with her in the future, I don't want it to be because of being an illegitimate daughter. She is innocent in this matter.

Gu Jingyan's brain was confused for a moment.

She had birth certificate, birth certificate, everything. How could Ruoxing not be He Yurou's flesh and blood?

He asked in a low voice, Then who are her biological parents?

The dean shook his head, I don't know, she was mistaken in the delivery room. Yurou had given birth at that time, her body was greatly exhausted, and it was extremely difficult to conceive again. She put almost all her energy on Ruoxing, so she learned After the truth was revealed, she did not want to return Ruoxing to her biological parents.

Firstly, although the blood relationship is fake, human feelings cannot be faked, and she is reluctant to feed the eldest child with her own hands; secondly, there is a huge sea of ​​people with no clues. If her biological daughter cannot be found, the one she raised will have to be handed over to She couldn't stand other people, so she never looked for her. She did look for her own daughter, but nothing came of it.

Gu Jingyan pressed his temples, getting drunk very quickly. He originally had many questions to ask the dean, but his mind was very confused at the moment.

The dean added, Don't tell Ruoxing about this. If she knows about it, it will only increase her sorrow if she can't find her biological parents.

Gu Jingyan inexplicably thought of Qiao Ruoxing's devastated look at He Yurou's funeral. His heart ached for a while, and it took him a long time to say hmm.

After the dean left, Qiao Ruoxing withdrew from the group of children and sat next to Gu Jingyan, What are you whispering to the dean?

Gu Jingyan propped his elbows on the small table and put his palms on his forehead. When he heard Qiao Ruoxing's voice, he opened his eyes and looked at her.

She was very excited to play with the children, her cheeks were pink and her eyes were unusually bright.

Gu Jingyan rubbed the top of her hair, The dean said you have a bad temper and asked me to be patient.

Qiao Ruoxing's expression paused, Are you talking about yourself?

Gu Jingyan smiled, leaned over and pressed his chin on her shoulder, Then bear with me.

Qiao Ruoxing said, Have I not tolerated you enough? When did you get so drunk that I didn't help you clean up the mess?

Then she handed him a glass of water, It's not like you don't know how much you can drink. You drink when others advise you. Wouldn't your mouth just hurt others and not refuse?

Gu Jingyan took the cup, smiled, and whispered, I'm tired, Mrs. Gu.

Qiao Ruoxing glanced at him, Don't push yourself too far.

Gu Jingyan was very sleepy, sipped his saliva, continued to lean on her shoulder, listened to her words, and suddenly said, The doctor said that the frequency of intercourse is once or twice a week. It has been more than a week since the last time.

Qiao Ruoxing...
