In her previous life, Gu Wanxing devoted her heart and soul to supporting her husband and raising their daughter, toiling like an ox and horse for half a lifetime, only to be killed by her ungratef...
Chapter 121 A Huge Sum of Two Million Eighty-Five Thousand
Gu Wanxing came to the bedroom, where there were two beds and warm-colored wallpaper.
Still focusing on simplicity.
She heard bursts of coughing coming from the phone.
He took a deep breath calmly and picked up the phone.
"Hello, I'm Gu Wanxing." Her voice was light and pleasant to the ears, with a hint of solemnity.
There was a moment of silence on the other side before a somewhat old but deep voice came: "Are you Wanxing? Is your mother Bai Qing?"
Gu Wanxing only responded with a single syllable: "Yeah."
There was another round of questions and answers, and Gu Wanxing answered them one by one.
For a moment, she couldn't tell what the other person's attitude was, but she heard that he was full of energy and didn't seem like an octogenarian.
"Why did your mother go there?" The old man's slightly hoarse voice came from the receiver again.
The tone sounds a bit heavy.
"My mother died of a serious illness."
Gu Wanxing still replied concisely and clearly.
There was another long silence on the other end of the phone. If she hadn't heard the other party's breathing, she would have thought the call had been hung up.
"Alas, that child is also pitiful."
Gu Wanxing didn't respond. There was no way to respond to this.
Gong Jizhi stood aside the whole time. At first he was afraid that his old man would say something unpleasant.
Because he found that his daughter was a very sensitive child. Although she acted as if nothing had happened and was carefree, she was actually very thoughtful.
"Grandpa hopes you can come back soon and integrate into our big family as soon as possible."
"Do you have anything else to do?"
Gu Wanxing didn't want to listen anymore. She had no plans to go to Kyoto at the moment.
"Okay, then grandpa won't say anything. Give the phone to your dad."
The old man was so smart that he immediately understood that she definitely didn't want him to nag anymore, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. When people get old, they talk a lot and always want to say more.
It's really annoying.
"Hey, Dad, did you hear what I just told you?"
"You bring that kid back to me, you hear me?"
"Got it. Don't forget to send it to me."
"I'll have Secretary Feng remit the money to you later. You have to pay me back when you come back..."
Pah—Gong Jizhi hung up the phone before his father could finish. "Pay back the money? No way."
Gu Wanxing had already left the bedroom and was sitting on the sofa outside, listening to Xiao Liu and Gu Tianming chatting across from her. She was quiet, with a gentle glow in her eyes.
This was the scene Gong Jizhi saw when he came out.
For a moment, I actually felt that it was Bai Qing sitting there.
Bai Qing is always very quiet, never talks much, and is willing to be a listener to others. He found that this child's personality is very similar to her mother's in many ways.
"Sir, shall we check out?"
When Xiao Liu saw his commander coming out, he quickly stood up and asked respectfully.
Gong Jizhi looked at Gu Wanxing and said, "Wanxing, what do you think? Should we go home tonight? If not, let's get a room here."
"Forget it, let's go home, let's go home, it's over a hundred yuan, why not do something else, just take a nap"
Gu Tianming really didn't understand the behavior of rich people. Why spend so much money just to sleep? He remembered that the first time he went out to work at the dock, he only paid two dollars for a night's sleep, and that was in a famous guesthouse on the street.
There is hot water for showering, radiators in winter, and thick quilts.
Gu Wanxing also agreed: "Then go back and check out early, otherwise you will be charged for today's accommodation."
Mainly because she had other things to do.
"Yes, yes, that's right, that's what I'm worried about." He was also a child from a farming family. Although he had seen a lot of the world in the past two years following the commander, he was still worried about money.
More than a hundred yuan, which is his monthly salary.
"Okay, wait until I hang up the phone and then we'll leave. It won't take a little longer." Gong Jizhi strode into the bedroom with his long legs.
A pair of cold eyes, full of determination.
After a while, his voice came from the bedroom: "Dad, are you done? I'm pressed for time, you must give me a definite answer."
I don't know what was said on the other end, but he laughed heartily, then he hung up the phone and came out again.
"Let's go, we'll come and get the money tomorrow afternoon."
It was visibly that Gong Jizhi was in a much better mood, and his steps seemed lighter when he walked.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Wanxing's eyes. She didn't expect that he was still entangled in this matter. In fact, it didn't matter whether the money was given to her or not. At the beginning, she imagined that her biological father might be very repulsive to her. She had already decided to ask for the money.
She even wanted to ask for more, but later she realized that they were all people who had been teased by fate, and some things would be relieved if she let them go.
It doesn't matter whether she has the money or not, but if she really has to give it to him, she won't refuse.
The four of them went to the front desk to check out, and only 80 out of the 100 deposit was returned.
Because I made a lot of long-distance calls and the time limit was exceeded.
I returned to town around two in the afternoon and took a look at the store. I found that Fu Zheng had painted the walls white. The room was much brighter when I entered, but he had already left.
According to Zhang Xiumei, at noon, Zheng De came with his men, exhausted, to collect the footprints, and then told them to wait for news.
Moreover, according to the disclosure of the police officer, the things can be found soon, it just takes a little time.
Then Gu Wanxing felt relieved.
She told Zhang Xiumei to go home early, and then she went home too.
Tonight she decided to cook a meal for Gong Jizhi and Xiao Liu herself as a welcome to their arrival.
There were ingredients in the space, and she took out a lot of them.
**
In a courtyard in Kyoto.
Under the octagonal pavilion, a white-haired old man was sitting on a chair to enjoy the cool air.
He was wearing a white sleeveless cotton-linen sweatshirt and a pair of black cloth shoes with clean white socks showing.
There was also a woman about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, wearing a professional suit and high heels, who was bowing respectfully and saying something.
"Chairman, one and a half million has been transferred."
Gong Yunqi nodded with a distant look in his eyes: "Did you do as I said?"
"We have sent people to Shen City, Liao Province. They are expected to arrive tomorrow morning."
The woman's voice was a bit cold, but she spoke clearly and in standard Mandarin, which was very authentic.
Gong Yunqi took the cigarette holder out of his mouth, tapped it on the chair, and said indifferently, "Does Xu Xueling know?"
"I guess I don't know everything. I've been asking about the commander's whereabouts these past few days."
"Keep an eye on her."
"OK."
The conversation between the two ended here.
The woman left, and only the old man was left in the pavilion, staring at the calm lake in a daze.
If the second son had not reported the Bai family, the Bai family would not have suffered this disaster, and Old Man Bai would not have died. If he knew that he still had a granddaughter, he would probably be happy.
"Old Bai, we have a granddaughter now. Did you know about this down there a long time ago? Did Qingqing go down to look for you?"
The old man murmured softly, tears glistening in his cloudy eyes.
…
The first day of July was Gu Wanxing's birthday, but she herself forgot it, and the careless Gu Tianming also forgot it. On this day, she withdrew 1.5 million in cash in front of the shocked eyes of her former classmates.
On the afternoon of July 4th, accompanied by Fu Zheng, she withdrew another 1.35 million.
In other words, after Gong Jizhi returned, he took out all the money in the passbook and remitted it to his daughter on the same day.
At this point, Gu Wanxing had a huge sum of 2.85 million yuan in her hands, all of which she put in her space. She lied to Fu Zheng and told him that the money would be deposited in their village bank. In fact, her space was not safe anywhere.
On the morning of July 5th, Gu Tianming rode his bicycle with his little cousin Gu Qingqing. They had just arrived at the small shop which had been almost decorated when they were greeted by the police from the police station.
"Comrade Gu, everything you lost has been found."
This was undoubtedly good news. Gu Wanxing asked in surprise, "Has the thief been caught?"
