Chapter 98 Feeling Powerless

"Ji Qinglin's information is all here. Whatever you want to know or don't want to know, I'll find it for you."

Lu Xu's attitude was very arrogant, and he slapped the brown kraft paper bag on Gu Yinmo's chest, squinting at him, "I didn't expect it to be so difficult to find, according to what you said, I will sign the contract this afternoon."

Gu Yinmo glanced at the paper bag in his hand, and made a rare concession, "You can get [-]% of the income."

Lu Xu couldn't understand his rich and powerful appearance, curled his lips, "No need."

"Just treat Ji Qinglin better. I checked his profile." Lu Xu paused, "He's really not doing well. If you have a conscience, stay away from him and don't provoke him."

Gu Yinmo snorted coldly, with a sour tone, "Why do you care so much about him?"

"Tsk," Lu Xu frowned and stared at him, "It's fine if you don't care about it, anyway, I pity the fragrance and cherish the jade."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Yinmo turned around directly and was about to leave.

Lu Xu didn't expect him to be so narrow-minded, so he hurriedly took two steps to catch up with him, "Will you let the [-]% go?"

Gu Yinmo didn't look at him, and walked straight forward.

Lu Xu didn't panic when he saw this, he followed behind and said slowly, "I've made an agreement with Ji Qinglin. After dinner, I'll drive him home and ask him to wait for me at the nearby bus stop."

Gu Yinmo paused, but didn't look back. After throwing the kraft paper bag to the driver waiting outside, he walked into the box.

Lu Xu raised his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled, his eyes were full of mischief.

Gu Yinmo had never slept so peacefully, but he didn't know why he dreamed of talking with Lu Xu in the hotel.

His consciousness gradually became clear, and the swelling pain at his temple hit him wave after wave. He raised his arm that was numb due to incorrect posture, and pressed his temple.

Trying to prop up his upper body, the blurry fog in front of Gu Yinmo's eyes began to dissipate.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol that his sense of smell recovered a little slower, but as his consciousness broke free from the chaos, wisps of sandalwood penetrated through the blinded nasal cavity, Gu Yinmo woke up almost instantly, and the decoration in the room also looked good. really.

Simple solid wood tables and chairs, dark blue cotton and linen fabrics, and a bunch of wormwood hanging at the door, this is Uncle Sun's residence.

Smelling the soothing sandalwood, Gu Yinmo's throbbing temples slowly stopped.

His eyes fell on the cabinet next to the wooden bed, where there was an old-fashioned jujube wood photo frame. The glass of the photo frame was very clean, and it could be seen that it was carefully wiped every day, and it was not willing to get dust on it.

Gu Yinmo reached for the photo frame.

The first woman who caught his eyes was smiling softly at him, her bright eyes were kind and her head was as white as snow.

The woman is sitting in the center of the whole picture, behind her are the servants of the Gu family.

She is holding a boy in brown overalls and a beige short-sleeved shirt in her left arm. The boy has a helpless expression, as if he was suddenly pulled over to take a photo halfway.

The woman has her husband on the right arm.

The man smiled brightly, but Gu Yinmo's eyes fell on his vacant left hand.

In the photo, the man's left hand is quietly pulled together with the young girl standing behind him. The girl is blushing, and the two are very close.

This is not the first time that Gu Yinmo discovered the "mystery" in the photo. He sneered, pressed his fingers on the man's face, and continued to look into the smiling eyes of the woman.

"...What should I do to him?" Gu Yinmo's voice was hoarse.

Of course the woman couldn't give him an answer, and Gu Yinmo didn't feel anyone coming in at all. He just looked at the woman like this, until the woman in his eyes was suddenly surrounded by a black flame, and he watched the woman turn into ashes.

Cold sweat oozes from Gu Yinmo's forehead.

"You're awake." Gu Yinmo turned his head, and Uncle Sun was standing at the door, his eyes full of worry.

He stepped over the high threshold and approached Gu Yinmo with a cup of warm water in a bowl.

"Luo Huan sent you over last night, she said..." Uncle Sun suddenly noticed something and stopped talking.

Gu Yinmo took the water and asked casually, "What did she say?"

Uncle Sun hesitated for a few seconds, then reluctantly said, "She said...you miss your mother."

Gu Yinmo stopped drinking water and blinked faster, but when he put down the bowl, his expression had returned to calm, except that the corners of his eyes were a little red.

His nasal voice was heavier than before, "Please help me find some clean clothes, I want to take a shower."

Uncle Sun let out a hey, went into the room on the other side to search for clothes, and Gu Yinmo went straight into the bathroom.

After washing, Gu Yinmo's spirit was obviously much better. Her hair was limp after blow-drying. Uncle Sun packed up the hair dryer and couldn't help sighing, "This casual suit was chosen by Su's mother when you were in college. Sometimes you asked us which color looks better with your mobile phone, but you chose the one with the fewest votes.”

Gu Yinmo looked down at the sweater and trousers that had been washed hard and white, and smelled dull, and pulled the corners of his lips reluctantly.

"I was not sensible at that time," Gu Yinmo recalled the naive scene of choosing parent-child outfits for his parents' wedding anniversary, his face was a little cold, and he said bluntly, "It's all over."

Uncle Sun sighed.

He knew that something had happened to Gu Yinmo, but in his capacity, he couldn't ask directly. Seeing Gu Yinmo's indifferent appearance, he could only sigh in his heart.

After a long silence, Uncle Sun broke the silence, "I can't make it through, Mr. Gu, it's always in your heart, in your mind, unless you really let it go."

Gu Yinmo was noncommittal to his words, he knew that Uncle Sun was right.

If you don't care about the unevenness of the road and don't deal with it, then no matter how strong and agile a horse is, it will fall down one day.

Gu Yinmo understands that he must first level the road ahead and let go of some of the past.

But after so many years, he understood everything he should know, but it had no effect at all. The shadow of revenge still hovered above his head, and the nightmare followed him like a shadow.

"Uncle Sun, what's the best way to take revenge on someone?"

Uncle Sun trembled all over, and looked at Gu Yinmo in disbelief.

Gu Yinmo caressed the woman's face with his fingers, then looked up at Uncle Sun.

How could Uncle Sun fail to see what Gu Yinmo was thinking.

His fingers holding the bowl were trembling all the time, he didn't dare to look directly into Gu Yinmo's eyes, moved his Adam's apple, and lowered his head, "...I don't know."

Gu Yinmo nodded thoughtfully, and then said to himself, "Ji Qinglin... is not that woman's son."

Uncle Sun widened his eyes suddenly after realizing what he was talking about.

"...He is an orphan, his father is a gambler, his mother died of dystocia, and his father sold him to a black hospital in order to pay off his gambling debts."

"The infertile Liang Jing bought him from a black hospital when he was three months old, and used him as a tool to keep Ji Fengyou," Gu Yinmo covered his eyes with one hand, breathed a long sigh of relief, and hoarse his voice Wearily said, "It's ridiculous—he's not Liang Jing's favorite person."

"I seem to have done something wrong," Gu Yinmo finally revealed his eyes from behind the only occlusion, with a daze in his expression, "I thought the best revenge was to make her feel the same pain as me, I thought I at least It can hurt her a little."

"But no, I seem to have done something wrong..."

The cruel truth reminded Gu Yinmo of the collapse scene when his mother died many years ago and he was wandering abroad alone.

As at that time, he had to accept his powerlessness.

"Don't talk about the child..." Uncle Sun was heartbroken when he saw Gu Yinmo's appearance, he reached out to hug Gu Yinmo, and patted Gu Yinmo's back gently, "Stop talking, it's not you It's not your fault."

"Learn to forgive yourself, kid."

Uncle Sun had never seen Gu Yinmo look so fragile. He stroked Gu Yinmo's hair like a child.
