Episode 66: Xiao's formidable rival in love has appeared.
Some things are like Pandora's box; once opened, the consequences are unimaginable.
Gu Mingxia did have a lot on her mind. She didn't know why Aunt Liu seemed so happy when she met her, helping her employer take care of the children and living her own peaceful life. But just a few days later, Aunt Liu committed suicide.
What exactly happened to Aunt Liu these past few days? The only explanation is that Aunt Liu must have been threatened in some way to do such a thing.
The person who threatened her must know the real cause of her mother's death fifteen years ago!
Several hours have passed since Gu Mingxia received the letter, but she still hasn't decided whether or not to open it.
"Xiaxia, the decision is yours. If you don't want to open it, then don't open it. Just pretend you never received this letter."
Xiao Yan sat down next to Gu Mingxia, picked up the water glass from the coffee table and handed it to her, then took the letter in his own hand. Looking at the neat and beautiful handwriting on the envelope, Xiao Yan could imagine how calm Aunt Liu must have been when she wrote the letter.
A person with inner peace would not commit suicide without a reason!
"But if you want to open this letter and see what's inside, then no matter what happens in the future, I will be by your side."
As he spoke, he handed the letter back to Gu Mingxia. Holding the envelope, Gu Mingxia closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes were filled with determination.
"Xiao Yan, I want to find out exactly how Mom died. Only by finding out the cause of Mom's death can we follow the clues to find out the cause of A Dong's death!"
As Gu Mingxia spoke, she had already opened the seal and taken out the letter inside. It was a plain white sheet of paper without any patterns.
She turned to look at Xiao Yan, who nodded at her. Gu Mingxia then turned her gaze back to carefully read what was written in the letter.
"Mingxia, it's like seeing you in person. Aunt Liu wants to apologize to you first. There are some things that Aunt Liu can't tell you, not because she doesn't want to, but because she can't and dares not! Fifteen years ago, when my husband and I were at our lowest point, it was Madam Gu who hired me as her caregiver, and she also funded my husband's medical treatment. If it weren't for Madam Gu's help back then, we wouldn't have the happy family we have now. From that moment on, I thought that no matter what, I would repay Madam Gu properly! But then that incident happened... That incident changed the fate of many people, such as Madam Gu and Mr. Gu, but it changed you the most, Mingxia. Because you lost your mother!"
Upon reading this, Gu Mingxia was quite certain that Aunt Liu would not commit suicide, because the contents of the letter were written in a very organized manner, without a trace of panic. Such a person would not want to throw away their life.
"Mingxia, I'm sorry, but if you trust Aunt Liu, then listen to me. You'd better not investigate the cause of Madam Gu's death. Those people are not people you can afford to offend! Besides, I think not investigating would also be your mother's last wish! Alright, someone's here, Aunt Liu is going to open the door. Not being able to acknowledge you is the best way to protect you. Mingxia, stop now. Sometimes, leaving things as they are is the best choice!"
After reading the letter, Gu Mingxia handed it to Xiao Yan, then poured herself a glass of water and sat on the sofa in a daze.
Aunt Liu's letter contained the same words as Gu Huaikun's words at the hospital. Both of them mentioned the same thing: if Gu Mingxia continued to investigate the truth, there was a high possibility of danger.
Concealing the truth from her and preventing her from continuing her investigation was a way of protecting her, a unique way of showing her love.
She couldn't understand; her mother had always been a kind and gentle person, even when she saw a homeless person on the street...
