Chapter 217 What a coincidence



Dai Shan was stunned, "You guys..."

These two are a couple, what else can Chu Jingcong do with her?

"I don't know why he came to me, and I have no idea why you're so aggressive and accusing me of something. But I broke up with him back then, and it was a mutual agreement. Even if there's any hatred or resentment, I'm the only one who has the right to do so."

Gu Xia's attitude was cold, and his eyes showed that he was annoyed by the repetition of old things.

The doubts in Dai Shan's mind grew like a snowball.

But Gu Xia was impatient, so he knew she didn't want to mention it.

"I will ask him clearly. I was presumptuous today."

Gu Xia heard his words and looked back.

"It's been so many years, there's nothing to ask about. What's done is done. I don't want to bring up the past, nor do I want to talk about the past with someone from the past."

She was very repulsive to Chu Jingcong, which made Dai Shan even more puzzled.

How could two people who loved each other so much in the past become a pair of resentful lovers now?

"Sorry." He turned and left.

He still had to ask what he had to ask. He didn't know what Gu Xia had experienced. The only thing he was sure of was that Chu Jingcong had done nothing wrong to Gu Xia.

They were talking quite loudly, and Liang Su in the room heard a little bit of it.

I don’t know the specific content of the conversation, but what is certain is that it is related to Chu Jingcong.

"Aunt Gu, your Uncle Chu..."

Gu Xia said coldly, "It's just some old stories, nothing much to say. We met when we were young, but then the situation became turbulent and we drifted apart."

We are meeting again now, but we have experienced so many people and things in between, so it is impossible to reconcile.

She just can't get over the hurdle of having a daughter.

Liang Su didn't ask any more questions. This should be a scar in Gu Xia's heart.

It's not meant to be.

No wonder Chu Jingcong planted the flowers that Gu Xia liked in his yard. He remained unmarried for many years because of her. He was also a deeply infatuated man.

After the Qingming Festival, there was still a lot of rain, and it was so drizzling that the clothes could not be dried.

Liang Su doesn't like this season very much because it's too humid, so he rarely goes out and concentrates on reviewing at home.

Especially Gu Xia, the humid weather made her feel uncomfortable.

She didn't go out, but Zhuang Xuefan came to her door.

There are two main reasons for coming here this time. The first is to present a banner to Liang Su.

"Your picture book has greatly helped our Women's Federation's publicity work. You deserve this banner."

In total, this is the fourth banner Liang Su has received.

When Zhuang Xuefan saw it, he gave her a thumbs up and praised her.

Wang Hongyue smiled and patted her, "That's enough. No matter how much you like her, you can't take her away from me."

Zhuang Xuefan said angrily, "You don't allow me to envy you."

After chatting and laughing for a while, Zhuang Xuefan put away his smile and talked about business.

"Yes, there is one more very important thing. Let me show you this."

Zhuang Xuefan took out a few picture books from the bag. They were similar to Liang Su's works, but not exactly the same.

"Liang Su, this is not a painting by you, right?" Wang Hongyue recognized it at a glance.

Liang Su smiled bitterly. "No, I haven't had the chance to tell you yet. My cooperation with Yang County Publishing House has ended. They wanted to force me to take a cut, but I refused, so they chose to cooperate with cheaper copycats. With their style, I will not cooperate with them now, and I won't cooperate with them in the future either."

Zhuang Xuefan tutted his words. "No wonder. Several schools bought picture books from this publisher and later came to complain to me, saying they found a lot of incorrect information in them and that it would mislead students."

Wang Hongyue sneered, "Piracy is piracy! Every one of Liang Su's drawings has been strictly reviewed by our Propaganda Department. How can anyone else understand this medical knowledge as well as our base hospital?"

Yang County Publishing House is so short-sighted. What benefit can it get in the end by ruining the cooperation with Liang Su?

Zhuang Xuefan hadn't expected this to happen. He sighed and said, "I'll ask these schools to return the products later. But Liang Su, don't you plan to publish your picture book anymore?"

"Of course not. You can go find Mr. Yang Jianxiao. I'll write you the address later. Although his publishing house is newly established, I will cooperate with him on all my picture books."

Zhuang Xuefan's move just helped Yang Jianxiao and the others get started.

As soon as Wang Hongyue and Zhuang Xuefan left, Gu Xia came out.

Liang Su saw that her face looked a little bad and asked, "Aunt Gu, are you feeling unwell?"

Gu Xia shook her head. "It's okay. I just feel a little chest tightness. It just so happens that the rain has stopped, so I'll go out for a walk."

Liang Su nodded, "Do you want me to accompany you?"

"No, just read at home."

After living there for a while, she became very familiar with the base.

As they walked, they arrived at Liang Qin's house.

The first person she saw was Liu Jun, who seemed to be explaining some precautions to Liang Qin.

Yes, Liang Qin is still pregnant.

Gu Xia's gaze fell on the teardrop mole on Liang Qin's face and he paused.

She particularly dislikes the rainy season because Song Song was lost in this season.

That period was really hard to endure.

"Auntie Gu, why are you standing here? Do you want to come in and sit down?" Liang Qin also saw her.

Gu Xia looked over and was distracted for a moment. He did not refuse her invitation and walked in.

Liu Jun glanced at her and said, "Then I'll go back first."

Liang Qin led Gu Xia into the house and made coffee for her.

It was obvious at first glance that Gu Xia was very rich, which was one of the reasons why Liang Qin wanted to make friends with him.

Liang Qin is not used to drinking coffee, but thinking about this era, it seems that rich people like to drink it.

Gu Xia reminded: "Pregnant women should not drink coffee."

Liang Qin was stunned and found that there was obvious concern on her face.

"I don't drink it. I'm making it for you."

Gu Xia smiled and shook her head, "I'll just drink tea."

Liang Qin felt a little strange, as Gu Xia seemed to care about her very much.

"Liang Qin, where are you from?"

Liang Qin said, "Cheng County, I don't know if you've heard of this place."

Gu Xia was stunned, "What a coincidence."

"Coincidence? Are you from Cheng County too?"

Gu Xia: "My hometown is."

Liang Qin was very surprised. She didn't remember there was a person named Gu Xia in the original novel.

But the plot has deviated too much, so it is normal for people she doesn't know to appear.

Gu Xia suddenly had a strong feeling in her heart, which prompted her to ask: "Liang Qin, can I see a photo of you when you were a child?"

This request was actually very presumptuous, forcing Liang Qin to think deeply about her action.

Why do you want to look at childhood photos? What does Gu Xia want to do?

"No, I lost my family when I was a child and was abducted by human traffickers to the countryside. The countryside is very poor and there are no conditions for taking photos."

Liang Qin stared at Gu Xia, sizing up her expression, and noticed that she was trembling visibly, as if she had discovered something unbelievable.

Her voice was hoarse: "Then... do you still remember what your home looked like when you were a child?"
