Chapter 657 Go Take a Look

See Aunt Lan’s actions.

Zhu Suisui was puzzled at first, but when he saw the part that was revealed.

She was stunned for a moment, then said: "Back then..."

Auntie Lan smiled nonchalantly and said, "That fire almost cost me my life."

If she had not escaped death, if her mother had not tried her best to take her away, if she had not reached the United States, she would have died in the fire long ago.

Zhu Suisui didn't know what to say. The part she had just uncovered, from the chin to the neck, was burned skin. Although the impact on the face didn't look significant, it was obvious that a skin graft had been done.

She recalled that when the incident happened, Aunt Lan was actually not very old, only a few years old.

A child of only a few years old endured this pain.

No one could imagine how much pain she was in at that time.

But to Aunt Lan, all of this seemed to have passed, and she described the past in a nonchalant manner.

"After escaping to the country, I was young and suffered from skin pain every day. I cried and collapsed every day. I tried to commit suicide countless times. I cried and wanted my father to be by my side, but no, he never showed up once. I once resented him, but later I knew it was not his fault. I waited until I was 18 years old, and then I had a skin grafting operation. It sounds like a minor operation, but do you know how painful it is?"

"Every day I have to endure taking skin from intact parts of my body and grafting it onto my face. This process is enough to make me collapse. You asked me why I didn't look for him. I also want to know why he didn't come to see me all these years."

Zhu Suisui was unable to answer after hearing this.

Aunt Lan has her own pains, and Grandpa Shou has his own difficulties.

During those years, he had already fallen into despair. Later, due to the national conditions, he was unable to leave the country. Of course, he had no idea who was behind the scenes.

How could I possibly know that Aunt Lan was abroad?

Zhu Suisui pursed his lips and said, "I misunderstood you before. I apologize to you for what I said."

Hearing this.

Aunt Lan laughed and shook her head. "You are right. I am indeed a coward and I dare not go to see him. I thought, if he saw me like this, how sad he would be. He is too old to get involved in many things. I know he has been looking for me, and I know he has never given up on me and my mother. This is enough."

What this means.

Grandma Xiuzhi is also alive.

Zhu Suisui looked at Aunt Lan, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "I don't understand. Since you are all alive and have found Grandpa Shou, why don't you want to recognize each other? Even if Grandma Xiuzhi has chosen to marry someone else and be with someone else, I think Grandpa Shou will understand even if he is sad. For you, being able to survive is the most important thing. Grandpa Shou just wants to know this."

Doesn’t old man Shou know that the world is difficult and it is even more difficult for mother and daughter?

He had long thought that if his wife and daughter were still alive, they would have remarried long ago.

This is also the reason why Old Man Shou has been hesitating whether to continue the investigation.

But later, he figured it out.

As long as my wife and daughter are still alive, this news is enough.

Nothing else matters.

He will not blame, nor is he qualified to blame.

Zhu Suisui believed that Aunt Lan and her daughter knew this well.

And there was that young man who betrayed him and his dad.

Zhu Suisui contacted the man and learned that the young man might be the child of Aunt Lan's stepfather.

I just don't know whether the child was born to Grandma Xiuzhi or was raised by her stepfather.

Could all this have something to do with that stepfather?

It was because their stepfather didn't want to that that they couldn't come to see Grandpa Shou.

But even if you don't want to, you don't have to kill anyone.

Zhu Suisui is really unbelievable.

According to normal people's logical thinking, she couldn't judge it. After all, there were many details back then that she didn't understand.

Seeing Zhu Suisui asking these questions, Auntie Lan pursed her lips and said, "Actually, there are some things I don't want you to know. This is my own business, and I think I can solve it myself. After so many years, it's time to put an end to it. I came to see you not because you misunderstood me, so I want to explain to you, but I know that you are sincere to him, and I really want to say thank you to you in person."

"Your existence at least protects him and prevents him from having a miserable old age. Even if he can't find me and mother in the future, he won't be too sad, at least he will have you by his side."

These words...

Zhu Suisui frowned, "You don't want to meet him, but he has been looking for you for many years."

Aunt Lan shook her head, "No need. Recognizing him will only bring him trouble. Your search has already attracted their attention. Now I am holding him accountable, so nothing has happened. But I don't know if I can hold him accountable every time in the future. Sui Sui, I know you are a good girl. This matter is too dangerous. Don't get involved."

Zhu Suisui grasped the point, "That place? What does it mean?"

She actually had some vague guesses, but she wasn't sure whether these guesses were true or not.

Zhu Suisui had guessed correctly about at least two forces. One was Aunt Lan, who hoped that Grandpa Shou would be safe and sound. The other was the young man, who should be Aunt Lan's younger brother, or something like that.

Aunt Lan didn't object to what I said just now, so it is possible that Grandma Xiuzhi has remarried.

But looking at Aunt Lan's expression, there was a coldness in her eyes, and even hatred when she mentioned it.

Does she want revenge?

Zhu Suisui couldn't help but ask, "Who was the person behind the scenes? I think Grandpa Shou would really like to know this."

"Sui Sui, listen to Aunt Lan. You don't need to know these things. I will handle them." Aunt Lan did not answer, but stroked Zhu Suisui's face and couldn't help saying, "I don't know why I told you so much. At first I just wanted to thank you, but then when I looked at your face, I felt particularly intimate."

It was as if they were meant to be a family.

This might be the reason why Zhu Suisui took care of old man Shou instead of himself.

She fulfilled her filial duty on her own behalf.

Zhu Suisui saw that she had been repeatedly told not to get involved.

This is enough to prove that the opponent's strength is beyond one's imagination.

But can Aunt Lan handle such a person?

If she could, she wouldn't have waited until now and still not taken revenge.

Seeing that Zhu Suisui seemed to still be thinking, Aunt Lan smiled.

As soon as she smiled, the coldness in her eyes melted away, and she became a little more gentle.

"Don't think about it. Once you've dealt with this, I will escort you back to Sijiu City. As for the rest, just treat it as a dream. Don't let him know of my existence. Promise me, okay?"

Zhu Suisui looked at her and always felt that she had feelings for Grandpa Shou.

It's just that for some reason, we can't recognize each other.

But thinking of Grandpa Shou's expression, Zhu Suisui asked, "So you really don't want to see him?"

Don't let him know about Aunt Lan's existence.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Zhu Suisui didn’t know either.

Hearing this.

Aunt Lan's mind moved, and she whispered, "Actually, if possible, I would like to meet him secretly and fulfill my filial duty in secret."

It’s not that she doesn’t miss him.

There is nothing I can do.

Some things she had prepared for for so long must be accomplished in one go.

During this period, she didn't want to affect Old Man Shou.

What if she doesn't come back.

At least he won't be sad.

After hearing what she said, Zhu Suisui simply said, "I don't know what you are hiding from us, but I think you should go see him, even if he doesn't know. You got the medicine back this time, and since you are going to escort me, why don't you go and see him."

"You don't have to worry too much about any unexpected situations happening in the Forty-Nine City. At least I can guarantee that it is absolutely safe there."

At least there are people from the Lu family here.

If someone really did something small under the emperor's feet, it would be a complete provocation.

The reason why Grandpa Shou got attacked before was because he didn’t discover it in time and the enemy was in the dark, making it hard to guard against.

Now this time.

This kind of thing won't happen again.

As long as Grandpa Shou doesn't leave the city, nothing will happen.

Hearing this.

Aunt Lan fell silent.

She was indeed moved. In fact, she had this idea in mind when she first looked for Zhu Suisui, but she was just hesitating.

Now that Zhu Suisui took the initiative to speak, Aunt Lan's balance tilted in the direction of a glance.
