Chapter 888 Gu Chaodong's Tomb
The cemetery was too dark at night. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but at the same time, the temperature in the cemetery seemed to be lower than the temperature outside.
Faced with the fear of the unknown, Gu Wanqiu suddenly felt a chill running down her spine from the soles of her feet. This fear almost squeezed out her soul, and her body was out of control. When Li Jinxing put her down, she still clung to him like a dodder, as if only in this way would she not be hit and fall down.
It was the first time that she grabbed Li Jinxing's hand so tightly and begged him so earnestly.
"I don't want to know. I want to go back. Li Jinxing, can you take me back? I hate Gu Chaodong. I hate him so much. He killed my mother. I have no blood relationship with him. I don't want to come here to see him at all."
The photo of Gu Chaodong on the tombstone was selected from a financial magazine. He was wearing a suit and tie, looking high-spirited, with a confident glow on his face.
In fact, Gu Wanqiu looks somewhat like Gu Chaodong, especially her eyes, both of them have peach blossom eyes and double eyelids.
When Gu Chaodong died, it was Gong Qing who brought her the news. At that time, Gu Wanqiu just said "hmm", without any joy or sadness, as if the person who died was not her father but a stranger.
Gong Qing also asked her if she wanted to come back to attend Gu Chaodong's funeral.
Of course Gu Wanqiu refused. First, she didn't want to return to China and meet Li Jinxing and wanted to escape. Second, she wanted to restrain her feelings for Gu Chaodong. Ever since she saw the DNA test report, Gu Wanqiu no longer regarded him as her father.
Is it true that she has no father-daughter feelings towards Gu Chaodong? How is that possible? After eighteen years, a dog can be considered a relative, let alone a human.
Although Gu Chaodong did not fulfill his fatherly responsibilities to her, the fact that she was able to grow up healthily, enjoy wealth and prosperity, and have no worries about food and clothing, all of these were closely related to him.
Gu Wanqiu looked at the black and white photo on the tombstone. She hadn't seen him for more than a year. She deliberately didn't inquire about Gu Chaodong's news or look at any information or photos about him. She thought that such a long time was enough for her to forget about this person and regard him as a dead "acquaintance".
But when she looked at it this moment, she suddenly remembered what Li Jinxing had said to her before. He said that when Gu Chaodong died, he left most of his inheritance to her, and he really wanted to see her.
Gu Wanqiu's heart sank in pain, and she turned her head away and stopped looking at the tombstone.
She couldn't understand why Li Jinxing suddenly brought her here and why he asked her that question: how did Gu Chaodong die?
She was not stupid and could easily guess it from Li Jinxing's question.
Perhaps, Gu Chaodong's death was related to her.
Gu Wanqiu didn't want to think about it, she just wanted to leave here quickly. Seeing Li Jinxing standing there like a stone statue, Gu Wanqiu bit her lip, tremblingly let go of his hand, and stood up little by little to leave. However, before she could take a step, Li Jinxing grabbed her neck and dragged her to the tombstone.
Li Jinxing's strength was too great, and the force of his hands kept putting pressure on her shoulders. Gu Wanqiu's body was already weak, and it was difficult for her to stand up straight, let alone being pressed down by someone. Her legs were shaking, and she was forced to kneel down. Her body leaned forward, and her head almost hit the tombstone.
Li Jinxing held his head down and bent over: "Why are you leaving? I haven't even finished what I was saying."
"I don't want to hear it."
"That's not up to you. Today, facing your father's grave, I will explain everything to you clearly. Gu Wanqiu, have you always felt that you and your father have no blood relationship and that he is not your biological father?"
Isn't it? She believed three or four points of what Liu Zhenzhen said at the beginning. Later, she asked Li Jinxing to take her and Gu Chaodong's hair to the hospital for testing. The DNA test results showed that she and Gu Chaodong were not related by blood. If they were, she would not have left Haicheng and gone abroad with Gong Qing.
But she overlooked one thing. She left the entire testing process to Li Jinxing. At that time, she regarded Li Jinxing as her most loyal dog and she trusted Li Jinxing completely.
Gu Wanqiu tried hard to raise her head. In the night, Li Jinxing's face was so terrifying. Hidden in those cold and sharp eyes was the mockery from the victor that only Gu Wanqiu could understand.
Gu Wanqiu widened her eyes, watching Li Jinxing's mouth open and close, and told the truth of that year.
"I replaced the DNA test sheet back then. Gu Chaodong is your biological father. Are you surprised? There's something even more surprising yet. The drug you secretly gave your father to kill him was the same drug that killed him. Poor him, he didn't even know until his death that the person who killed him was his beloved daughter. It's a pity that he was still thinking of you and wanted to see you one last time. But what were you doing at that time? You eloped with Gong Qing and didn't even want to come back for his funeral."
As soon as Li Jinxing said these words, Gu Wanqiu clenched her hands tightly, and her nails dug into her palms. The pain came too slowly, and only when a gust of cold wind blew did Gu Wanqiu react. The stinging pain from her palms spread throughout her body, and with every breath, her whole body felt an almost tearing pain.
The result she had guessed and was most unwilling to accept appeared. She really wanted to refute Li Jinxing and not believe what he said.
But when she met Li Jinxing's eyes, she knew that Li Jinxing was not lying to her and everything he said was true.
For a moment, her neck was too weak to support her head, and she lowered her head and looked at the photo on the tombstone with her peripheral vision.
"Why?"
"Gu Wanqiu, you haven't forgotten how my mother died, right? It's a tit for tat. You have so many lives on your hands, why bother about your father's?" Li Jinxing let go of her neck, stood up and clapped his hands.
Gu Wanqiu collapsed to the ground. It was such a huge chess game. Li Jinxing had been staying by her side all those years, probably just waiting for this moment.
She caused him to lose his mother, so he took revenge on her by having her indirectly kill his biological father.
When she asked Li Jinxing to take two strands of hair to the hospital for testing, and when he watched her give drugged milk to Gu Chaodong to drink every day, was Li Jinxing hiding in the dark and mocking her?
Gu Wanqiu smiled, a beautiful smile hanging on her delicate face, from sadness to peace, she looked lifeless when she was quiet, without any sign of life. Gu Wanqiu slowly raised her hand, her fingertips fell on the photo on the tombstone, without saying a word, without crying or laughing, just staring at the three words "Gu Chaodong".
The names of his children should be engraved on his father's tombstone, but this tombstone only has five short words.
