Chapter 291 Unexplained, Provoked Guesses
After Song Jia and the police dealt with the suicide attempts of Gu Huaikun and Nan Lan, they were on their way to the hospital when they encountered A Xin, who had come after hearing the news.
What are you doing here?
Because of Gu Mingxia, Song Jia instinctively disliked the vain woman in front of him.
Can someone who feeds drugs to his own father be a good person? Although Song Jia doesn't consider himself a good person either, at least he wouldn't harm his own family!
"How is Gu Huaikun?"
How could he die? Even though Ah Xin gave him Deep Blue, he should still have at least a year to live. How could he die at this time?
For some reason, when she heard the news of Gu Huaikun's death, she was completely blank for a moment, and the only thought in her mind was, how could he die?
Her revenge hadn't even begun, how could he just die like this? Ah Xin felt that it was far too easy for him to die like this.
"What's it to you? Someone who can feed his own father Deep Blue has no right to care about his life or death."
She'd wanted Gu Huaikun dead for a long time, so why pretend to be a good person now? This was Song Jia's true thought. However, these were all Gu family matters. Gu Mingxia hadn't wanted her involved before, but now that Gu Mingxia was gone, Song Jia could finally vent her displeasure.
"This is a matter for the Gu family, what does it have to do with you?"
Ah Xin glared coldly at Song Jia. She disliked this man intensely. Many times she had wanted to kill Gu Mingxia, but each time this man had ruined her plans. Now, looking at him, Ah Xin thought, if looks could kill, Song Jia would probably be dead hundreds of times over!
"You want to know, right? Then I'll tell you, the person you called Gu Huaikun is dead. Are you satisfied with that answer now?"
He's dead. He's really dead!
Ah Xin paused for a moment, glanced at Song Jia, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
The person she had always hated was dead! She had lived such a hard life just to return to the Gu family in Xiangcheng and take revenge on Gu Huaikun, but now he was dead! And she still had to continue living such a hard life!
But from now on, what's the point of living like this? The person she hated is dead, but she's still alive!
How ridiculous this is! If she had known things would turn out this way, would she still have made the same decision?
Ah Xin didn't know, because there are no "what ifs" in life, and she would never have the chance to know her own feelings again. If she really asked her own heart, did Ah Xin really hate Gu Huaikun?
She didn't know; perhaps it was hatred, or perhaps resentment at his lack of concern for her. Things suddenly didn't go as she expected, leaving Ah Xin at a loss.
Watching Ah Xin's retreating figure, Song Jia shook his head helplessly, but said nothing more. Instead, he drove to the hospital. Gu Huaikun and Nan Lan's bodies were temporarily kept in the police station's morgue, waiting for Gu Mingxia to recover before handling their funeral arrangements.
A-Xin walked absentmindedly down the street when she came across a man carrying a little girl. The little girl was holding a string of cotton candy, took a bite, and then smiled sweetly as she offered it to the man.
"Dad, you eat!"
"Mmm, it's so sweet. Baby, you can eat it. Daddy won't eat any more!"
In a daze, Ah Xin seemed to see her four-year-old self, holding her aunt's hand and walking in Chinatown. Suddenly she stopped and looked at a father and daughter across the street, eating cotton candy in a warm and cozy way.
"Auntie, why doesn't my dad come to see me?"
Little Xin lowered her head and asked the question in a low voice. Her aunt pulled her hand and glared at her impatiently.
"You keep asking me questions all day long, don't you get tired of it! Why, why, why are there so many whys! You're just an illegitimate child, your father hates you more than anything, why would he want to come see you?"
An illegitimate child. It turns out that I really am just like those kindergarten kids said, an illegitimate child!
Ah Xin lowered her head even further, glancing enviously at the loving father and daughter, before reluctantly following her aunt home.
From the age of four, she knew that she was just an unloved illegitimate child. Not only did her father not love her, but her mother never even came to see her. The only thing that proved she had a mother was a phone call twice a month!
"Yes, I was just an illegitimate daughter you didn't care about. Now that you're dead, what do I have to be sad about?"
Ah Xin spoke calmly, turning her gaze away from the father and daughter opposite her. She hailed a taxi with a blank expression and went directly to Cai Feng's residence.
When she arrived at Cai Feng's residence, she saw Cai Feng embracing another woman and making merry. Ah Xin didn't say anything, pretending not to see anything. She went straight to the living room, poured herself a glass of white wine, and drank it down without even looking at it.
Chai Bong frowned, got up, dressed, and waved to the woman beside him. The woman frowned and didn't move. Chai Bong threw a wad of money at her in disgust. The woman picked up the money, dressed, and left happily.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Cai Feng sat down next to A Xin, smiling as he held her hand. A Xin looked at him with hazy, drunken eyes. Having followed Nan Lan for so many years, she had never drunk alcohol because Nan Lan had said that getting drunk was the easiest way to mess things up. So, in order to complete her tasks well, A Xin never drank. But today, she did!
"Cai Feng, do you know what happened today?"
"Then tell me, and I'll know, won't I?"
Cai Feng playfully pinched Ah Xin's cheek, and Ah Xin leaned back, tears immediately falling down her face.
"You know, the eldest sister I've followed for so many years is actually the person I've always hated. It's because of her that my mother died so young, and it's also because of her that I became a socialite who pleases men so early. Yet, I still foolishly do things for her and try to win her favor! Cai Feng, don't you think I'm very stupid? Huh?"
Cai Feng frowned, a bad feeling creeping into his heart, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he stared intently at A Xin.
"Who is this 'she' you're talking about?"
"Who is she? Don't you already know the answer in your heart? What, are you afraid to admit it? Haha! Cai Feng, so you're a coward too!"
"You mean Nanlan? Where is she? Tell me quickly, where is she?"
"Where is she? It's a pity you can't see her anymore. She... she's dead. She died in Gu Huaikun's arms. Doesn't it hurt to hear that? Doesn't it make you feel resentful? She doesn't even remember you. She said she only loved Gu Huaikun. Hahaha!"
