Thinking about it this way, all those things I couldn't understand before suddenly became clear.
For example... why did he choose to rely on her and Nana?
Because in Gu Yao's eyes, the three of them are sisters!
Living here, you won't be bothered by the outside world, and you won't even have to worry about your boyfriend getting jealous and breaking up with you.
For example... when they were in a hotel abroad, as soon as they entered the room, Gu Yao took off his clothes and went into the bathroom without any hesitation.
Tsk tsk tsk...
Zhou Chunhua shook her head inwardly.
What a pity! That face, that figure, what a waste!
However, the slight embarrassment she felt at that moment had disappeared.
So even his hand movements returned to their previous nimbleness.
"I'm asking you! Who told you I have a girlfriend?" Gu Yao suddenly asked.
Zhou Chunhua turned her head, knowing full well what was going on, and avoided the topic.
"If you don't want to sleep anymore, hurry up and get ready to come out for breakfast. I have to go out in a bit."
"Where to?" Gu Yao suddenly asked.
Zhou Chunhua hadn't forgotten the request Lu Ming had mentioned on WeChat.
"Since I have some free time recently, I want to inquire about Old Chen's whereabouts." She didn't lie to Gu Yao, because there was indeed a group member in that area who had left the group after finding his child.
Their child was discovered and rescued by Old Chen by chance.
Therefore, the couple's relationship with Lao Chen was deeper than that of other members in the group.
She happened to be going in that direction today, so she decided to find out if Old Chen had contacted them.
Gu Yao suddenly got up and went back to his room.
Zhou Chunhua looked puzzled.
However, I didn't ask any further questions.
She continued busy with breakfast, and by the time Gu Yao finished tidying up and came out, she had just turned off the stove.
They brought the cooked food to the table and sat facing each other.
Julian hasn't come back recently. Every time she calls, Julian says she's too busy day and night to come back.
Although she didn't know what Juliana was busy with, she could only tell Juliana to eat well and get plenty of rest.
So, from then on, it was just the two of them eating at home.
...
Zhou Chunhua had timed her departure perfectly.
She planned to inquire about Old Chen's whereabouts first, and then the timing would be just right.
Upon arriving at the location, Zhou Chunhua began to examine the shop signs around her.
A member of the group said that they opened a noodle shop nearby.
She remembered that the man's surname was Meng and the woman's surname was Huang.
It is said that the two were previously senior executives of foreign companies.
The salary is calculated on an annual basis, and it's quite a lot.
After having a child, the woman didn't want to give up her career, so she said she would hire a live-in nanny in Jiang City to take care of the child.
Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law was unhappy when she heard that someone was needed to take care of her eldest grandson.
First, they used various methods to force the woman to quit her job and become a full-time housewife.
In an attempt to get the woman to lose her job, her mother-in-law made all sorts of trouble and created all sorts of problems.
They say a woman's only role is to take care of her children and her husband.
Earning money to support the family is a man's job.
They also said that she didn't care about her children and only cared about making money, so she didn't deserve to be a wife or a mother.
I heard that later the woman directly said she wanted a divorce, and her husband was so distraught that her mother-in-law finally gave up.
However, the mother-in-law, who was supposed to return to her hometown to continue her retirement, suddenly suggested that she stay and take care of the children with the live-in nanny.
The woman thought that her mother-in-law must love the child too much and be reluctant to go back.
The man will also say nice things to his mother, and the woman is essentially agreeing to share a room with her mother-in-law.
However, everything had gone as they had planned, and everything was arranged perfectly.
However, their son was stolen when he was just over a year old.
It is said that her mother-in-law didn't know at the time, but heard from somewhere that the supermarket was having a promotion where customers could get free eggs upon entering.
So they immediately called for the nanny and rushed the child to the supermarket.
To save time, her mother-in-law asked the nanny to go in alone to buy the things the family needed.
She, meanwhile, was pushing their child in a stroller, exploiting bugs at the supermarket entrance.
Because it's one egg per entry, she has to push her child in, enter through the entrance, collect the egg, and immediately rush to the exit before entering through the entrance again.
They went in and out repeatedly.
At first, she pushed the baby's stroller and brushed the eggs back and forth.
Later, I don't know when it started, but more and more people began to gather at the supermarket entrance.
In order to grab a few more eggs, her mother-in-law placed the baby and stroller right at the entrance. Then she devoted herself entirely to cleaning the eggs.
As a result, after she had happily grabbed dozens of eggs, she remembered that her child was still at the supermarket entrance.
However, when she arrived at the supermarket entrance, the stroller and the child were gone.
The flustered old lady blamed the supermarket employee who was handing out eggs at the entrance for not watching her child properly, and got into an argument with him.
The eggs that were repeatedly brushed on were smashed to the ground in a scuffle with someone.
When the aunt arrived after hearing the commotion, she didn't care about the old lady who was crying and screaming on the ground, and immediately called the police.
When Uncle Hat arrived and checked the surveillance footage to find the child, he only saw a person completely covered by a sun hat and sun mask, who had pushed the car and the child away.
The old lady thought that now that things had come to this point, it was only a matter of time before she found her child.
Who would have thought that the child thief would disappear into a blind spot of the security cameras after leaving the supermarket?
Later, Uncle Hat did what he was supposed to do—investigate and stop what he was supposed to stop—but the child and the stroller seemed to have vanished from the world.
After that, there was no further news of the child.
Although the mother-in-law felt guilty, how could her daughter-in-law forgive her so easily?
The woman immediately demanded that her mother-in-law return to her hometown and stay away from her.
The man didn't know what else to say, so he sent his mother back to her hometown to live out her retirement.
However, her mother-in-law developed a deep emotional turmoil because of this incident, and she passed away not long after returning to her hometown.
It is said that he couldn't understand why he threw himself into the river.
Anyway, the person disappeared, and the body has not been found to this day.
At the time, they only found the suicide note and clothes left by the old woman on the riverbank.
The suicide note said that she wanted to give her own life so that her eldest grandson could live a good life.
At this point, the person was gone.
The couple also quit their jobs, sold their house and car, and used all their savings to embark on the arduous journey of searching for their child.
Later, they joined the group and got to know Lao Chen.
During that search for his child, Old Chen stumbled upon a lead on human traffickers. He followed the trail upwards and, by chance, discovered their child in a small, almost unnoticed town.
In those years, many disabled children begged on the streets.
Old Chen saw a child with a broken leg, blinded eyes, and twisted hands, abandoned on the street.
There was a dirty basin in front of me.
I just casually sent a photo to the group.
Who would have thought that this child would be their fair-skinned, chubby little boy!
