The Xu family went bankrupt, and Xu Yao was heavily indebted. Everyone said that her rich fiancé Shen Yan was Xu Yao's last straw.
Three years later, Xu Yao, however, proactively propose...
353: People who do wrong are always being tortured
Jason soon found out that An Yongmao had moved out.
He guessed that Fu Hong must have said something.
Jason did not go to Fu Hong to confirm, but went to An Yongmao's new residence... An Yongmao moved to a very small apartment.
Jason's eyes suddenly felt sore.
My uncle has probably never lived in such a small house.
Jason didn't really know An Yongmao's current financial situation. Fu Hong and Jason had immigrated here first, and An Yongmao had arrived later. Even Fu Hong wasn't sure how much money An Yongmao had left, let alone Jason. After immigrating, An Yongmao had acquired some property and would travel extensively from time to time, clearly striving to earn a living.
However, the environment abroad is different from that in Nancheng. Without familiar connections and relationships, An Yongmao will definitely not make money as fast as before.
Jason could feel An Yongmao's anxiety.
So when Fu Hong wanted Jason to become famous quickly, Jason did not object.
In fact, Jason's mental state was on the verge of collapse at that time, but he still forced himself to paint because he still had a faint belief: his uncle was so good to him, and if his paintings could make money quickly, it could help relieve his uncle's financial pressure.
Seeing that An Yongmao moved into a small apartment, Jason was worried that something might be wrong with An Yongmao's business.
This situation is very likely to happen. The financial strength is not as good as before, but Fu Hong's demands are no less than before. After the two quarreled, An Yongmao moved out in anger...
"Uncle, I have money."
Gu Jun let Jason take control of the finances, and Jason could give all the money he earned from selling paintings to An Yongmao.
Isn't this the moment for which we take control of the economy?
He can finally help his uncle!
An Yongmao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Linsen, I moved to this small apartment not because I have no money, at least not because I can't afford a better house. I just, just... I don't deserve a good life."
Jason was silent.
Jason doesn't understand the ways of the world but he is not a fool. Gu Jun asked him to have more contact with society. Jason can now understand why An Yongmao is in pain.
Someone is carrying the burden of the mistakes An Yongmao made, and An Yongmao can no longer live here.
But An Yongmao had no other choice.
His current identity makes it impossible for An Yongmao to return to his previous life.
This is not something that can be solved by An Yongmao going back and paying off the remaining debts.
Once An Yongmao admits his true identity... not only will the existing pain be unable to be eliminated, but it will also bring greater harm!
This is an unsolvable problem.
Jason was silent for a long time before asking, "So, uncle, what do you want to do?"
An Yongmao looked up, his tone full of pleading: "I want to see Gu Jun."
Jason didn't know what to say.
Seeing Gu Jun's words, isn't it just leaving the difficult problem to Gu Jun to decide?
Everyone is selfish in nature. Gu Jun is not An Yongmao's child, so how could An Yongmao consider Gu Jun so thoroughly... Jason can understand An Yongmao's approach, he just feels sorry for Gu Jun.
An Yongmao continued to plead, "Linsen, I really can't hold on any longer. Every news push is like torture to me. I don't want to defend my selfishness. Even if I don't go find Gu Jun, he will find out my identity sooner or later. You also know that he has been investigating me!"
Jason smiled bitterly.
An Yongmao was right, Gu Jun would find out sooner or later.
Jason could neither get Gu Jun to stop the investigation nor stop An Yongmao from confessing to Gu Jun. Gu Jun was a very opinionated person, and An Yongmao was not a good-natured person either.
"You can contact him yourself."
Since no one listens to his advice, why bother telling him?
Although Jason understood some social skills, he was still far from becoming a smart person. He didn't understand why An Yongmao did this.
An Yongmao's eyes were filled with sadness. "Linsen, you are like another child of mine. I don't want to let my own child suffer, and I don't want to hurt you in the slightest. Gu Jun is your biological brother. I must tell you before I contact him. This is my respect for you."
Jason couldn't tell what he felt.
Are you touched?
have.
More of it is confusion.
An Yongmao is not a bad person.
Good people sometimes do wrong things.
Jason was grateful for An Yongmao's care over the years, but sometimes he couldn't understand An Yongmao's choice. Even if he was looking for a lover, An Yongmao had better choices back then. Why did he choose Fu Hong, who had a child?
Is Tu Fuhong pretty?
Fu Hong is indeed beautiful.
However, Jason knew that An Yongmao's wife was no less beautiful than Fu Hong. Not only that, she was a woman who was better than Fu Hong in every aspect. She was the most praised wife and mother, and An Yongmao's good wife and mother!
In the past, Jason thought that he was An Yongmao's illegitimate son, and that An Yongmao had lived with Fu Hong for so many years just for this reason. Since he found out that he was not An Yongmao's son at all, Jason became even more confused.
What exactly does An Yongmao want?
"Linsen, your mother and I are not what you think."
An Yongmao hesitated to speak.
It turned out that Jason had unknowingly expressed the doubts in his heart.
"That's not what I thought. You mean you never had that kind of relationship?"
Jason was shocked.
How is that possible?
When An Yongmao came to visit the mother and son before, he always lived in the same room with Fu Hong!
Jason has never been in a relationship, and he wonders if there are any men and women in this world who sleep on the same quilt and only chat without having sex. If there really is... wouldn't it be even more strange that An Yongmao spent so much money on the mother and son?
Jason's directness forced An Yongmao to the point where he wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground.
"...At least at the beginning, we were not in that kind of relationship."
An Yongmao could lie to Jason but he couldn't lie to his own conscience. Now that things had come to this, there was no point in lying anymore.
"When I see Gu Jun, I will explain everything clearly."
"oh."
Jason nodded: "What are you planning to do?"
"I'll leave tomorrow."
An Yongmao was extremely anxious. Jason thought about it and decided to go back to South City with An Yongmao.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to inform Fu Hong.
…
An Yongmao and Jason also did not inform Gu Jun, but after their itinerary was confirmed, Gu Jun received the news in Nancheng.
Gu Jun resisted the urge to question Jason further.
In the office, the secretary was reporting to Gu Jun.
"An Yongmao should be unable to maintain his stability."
No matter how many obstacles the people who help An Yongmao disguise his identity set up, Gu Jun is very persistent in finding out who An Yongmao is. This process is like a person patiently peeling an onion. By tearing off the outer layer of the onion layer by layer, you can always see the core of the onion!
"What we can confirm now is that this 'An Yongmao' is also from Nancheng. Learning a foreign language isn't that difficult, but completely changing one's accent is truly difficult. We've also roughly determined when 'An Yongmao' changed his appearance, where the funds for his immigration came from, and where his funds went after he immigrated. This makes his identity very easy to investigate..."
The secretary spoke very logically. After investigating for so long, the identity of "An Yongmao" was finally confirmed!
An Yongmao chose to return to Nancheng at this time. Perhaps he sensed that danger was getting closer and wanted to stop Mr. Gu from continuing the investigation?
The secretary was thinking this when he noticed that Gu Jun had a frown on his face as he looked through the documents.
"What's the problem?"
"...No, go out and do your work first."
Gu Jun seemed calm, but his heart was actually beating fast.
The closer he got to the truth, the more familiar "An Yongmao" became to Gu Jun. If it were just a coincidence in time, it wouldn't be a big deal. But the source of An Yongmao's funds for immigration, and the subsequent flow of funds, were what really alarmed Gu Jun.
——Is it what he thinks? !
