Gu Zuozuo took a few deep breaths, trying to ease the severe pain in his heart.
She didn't expect that the original owner's obsession with her parents had reached such a deep level. Even after her soul left the body, that obsession was still deeply imprinted in the deepest part of her heart.
He looked up at the five people in the center of the crowd who were being cursed by everyone. He watched them being criticized and pelted with rotten vegetable leaves and broken stones. Their eyes were numb and empty, their bodies were emaciated, and there was no trace of life in their bodies.
"Zuo Zuo, stop looking."
Gu Zuozuo retracted her complicated gaze, met the distressed eyes of the two people, and curled the corners of her lips.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
She knew that the original owner's parents were fine, but the original owner didn't know that in the last moment of her life, she was still thinking about her parents.
He sighed secretly, wondering how his father and mother were doing. He wondered if they knew that their only daughter had passed away.
Before turning around and leaving, he took one last look at the middle-aged man in the Zhongshan suit. His eyes darkened as he watched him giving an impassioned speech.
The most hateful things in this era are these pests who use the guise of light to satisfy their own selfish desires.
With a flick of his fingertips, a wisp of green smoke invisible to others fell on the middle-aged man. Without anyone noticing, he had given him a drug that would prevent him from harming anyone for the rest of his life.
Xie Jinyu frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on the inconspicuous marks on the middle-aged man's arm, and he looked at the people around him, trying to determine who had left those marks.
"Commander, it has been arranged."
Xie Jinyu withdrew his gaze and accidentally passed by a familiar profile. Before he could remember where he had seen him, the person had already run away quickly with the crowd.
"Chief?"
"It's okay, let's go."
The tall figure turned and left without attracting the attention of others.
………………
Mirage.
Zhu Qiang was lying on the ground covered in blood, his fat body shaking from fear, his face bruised and blue, his eyes, which were already small to begin with, were so red and swollen that not a single slit could be seen.
"Sir, I really don't know anything! I was arrested right after I got home. I really don't know where the goods went!"
As he spoke, he continued to scratch his exposed skin, which was already bloody and mangled. He seemed to feel no pain and continued to scratch hard, completely unaware that his nails were full of scratched flesh.
The man stood there with his hands behind his back, frowning slightly at his miserable appearance, and took a step back silently. Could it be some infectious disease?
"You didn't find the Gu family's things, and you also lost that batch of goods. Zhu Qiang, do you know the consequences of not being able to deliver the goods..."
Zhu Qiang was so frightened that he fell to his knees, enduring the excruciating itchiness all over his body. Tears and snot streamed all over his face, and his thick lips trembled so much that he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
The man sneered. Not only could he not keep an eye on a little girl, but he also let her run away. The goods right under his nose were taken away without him even noticing. What a good-for-nothing.
"You don't have to interfere in the Gu family's affairs. I will arrange for someone else. You'd better find the lost goods, otherwise you'd better wash your neck and wait."
Zhu Qiang was nearly driven mad by despair. He was going to look for her? Where could he look? His house had been raided without anyone noticing, leaving him no coins. How could he possibly look for her?
It was clearly their own fault that they didn't show up to pick up the goods, and the goods and his hidden money were all looted away. Yet they actually blamed themselves for not managing it properly?
"Something happened to Old Man Gu too. When our people found him, he was almost dead. His clue was broken, and the treasure map he had hidden was also missing."
Having said that, the man narrowed his eyes, a cold look flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at Zhu Qiang who was lying there like mud, and the disgust in his eyes became even stronger.
Now, both of the people who were keeping an eye on the Gu family have run into trouble, each one more serious than the other, and the only girl in the Gu family has also gone to the countryside.
but……
Thinking of the place she went, the man's expression became slightly solemn. He didn't know whether it was a coincidence or intentional, but she actually went to that place.
……………………
Gu Zuozuo bit her nails as she read the contents of the letter, knowing what expression to use to represent the fucked-up feeling she was feeling at the moment.
One good news, one bad news.
But for her, both of these were bad news.
The beginning is the news that Gu's father and mother died unexpectedly.
The ending is summarized with a sentence: I have arranged a marriage for you, and all the processes in between are kept confidential, without a single unnecessary word.
If the original owner had received this letter, she would probably have gone crazy. She had been waiting for three or four years, and not only did she receive the bad news, she didn't even know how he died, let alone see him for the last time.
Now she is the one who received the message. Besides being somewhat resistant to her new fiancé, she also feels sorry for Gu's father and mother. She wonders if the three of them can reunite in another world?
The extra package was sent to her by her fiancé whom she had never met. It contained not only various nutritional supplements and dried meat, but also the passbook that Gu's father and mother had saved for their daughter before they passed away. There was 5,700 yuan in it, both in small and large amounts.
The stuffy and uncomfortable feeling in my heart slowly began to dissipate when I saw a photo inside.
In the photo, a handsome and elegant middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit is holding a delicate and elegant woman in a long bragi dress in his arms. Both of them look a little surprised, and it is obvious that they are reacting to being photographed suddenly.
It was hard to imagine that they looked 90% like her parents in real life, except that the tenderness between their brows towards each other was not seen on the faces of her parents in her previous life.
Thinking of that silly woman who was his mother, Gu Zuozuo felt a pang of sadness in his heart.
In order for her mother to enter the Gu family, she studied hard and practiced martial arts desperately for twenty years, rain or shine. However, she never expected that she would fall into the hands of an idiot man who was nothing, and all her efforts in the past twenty years would be wasted.
Gu Zuozuo looked up at the sky of 1969, which was dotted with stars and had bright moonlight.
In two lifetimes, she seems to have no relatives.
【Host, you still have me. 】
Kras looked at the host's plummeting activity value, feeling guilty and sad. It was all his fault for not using his brain when binding to the host. He ended up binding a stick, causing Zuo Zuo to die young. Coming into this world with it, the result was still a mess.
Gu Zuozuo tilted his head, withdrew his gaze from the night sky, listened to the system's nagging and inexpressible comfort, and smiled.
In fact, what she didn't say was that she didn't blame the system. She blamed the man who had the system but was obsessed with having a harem.
As if knowing that she was in a bad mood, the system gradually calmed down. The person and the system stayed there quietly, enjoying this rare quietness.
"Zuo Zuo! Come quickly! My parents sent us new cotton-padded clothes, come and try them on!"
Gu Zuozuo turned around and saw Meng Tian holding a cotton coat in her hand and waving at her, indicating that she should go back quickly.
"Okay, right up!"
The road ahead is unclear and the future is unknown, but at this moment, she is satisfied.
