"Later, Miss Luo gave birth to a daughter. Oh, she was so pretty. Anyway, I have never seen such a pretty girl..."
The village head's wife was talking excitedly when her eyes accidentally fell on a certain place. Her eyes suddenly widened, as if she had encountered something earth-shattering and was shocked.
She knew that an important person had come to her house. She heard from her son that he was a rich man whom they could not afford to offend. So since she came in, her eyes had been fixed on her man, so much so that she did not notice the young man sitting in the main seat, who was indifferent and silent, but full of dominance.
The village head's wife wasn't frightened by Li Yuan's kingly aura, but by that face...
"You, you..." The village chief's wife pointed at Li Yuan and spoke haltingly, unable to express what she meant for a long time.
He took a step back suddenly and quickly looked away.
No way, how is this possible? This isn't normal.
It's been twenty years already, twenty years...
With this unintentional glance, the village chief's wife met the face of Ji Zhinan who was sitting next to her. Her frightened eyes met Ji Zhinan's beautiful and lively eyes. The village chief's wife's pupils suddenly shrank and she sat down on the ground in embarrassment.
"Old woman!" The village chief was panicked, fearing that his wife's rude behavior would offend the distinguished guests present. He hurried forward to help the woman up and whispered a scolding in the village chief's wife's ear.
"What are you doing? You're so clumsy!"
"..." The village chief's wife seemed to be frightened. She stared at Li Yuan, then turned her head stiffly to look at Ji Zhinan.
"This...this...he's the person in the photo that Miss Luo was holding at the time."
"What?" The village chief didn't understand for a moment.
Li Yuan looked at the dumbfounded wife of the village head with an expressionless face and stood up: "I am her man."
Ji Zhinan tightly grasped Gu Yibei's hand, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and said lightly: "I am that child back then."
“…” This time, not only the village chief’s wife, but even the village chief was stunned.
That's right. I didn't look closely just now because I was too scared. But now when I look at this girl carefully, she looks very much like Miss Luo back then, especially her eyes. It's like they were carved from the same mold. It's okay when she speaks, but when she doesn't speak, her expression is indifferent and cold, just like Miss Luo back then who is otherworldly.
Twenty years have passed, and the child has indeed grown up, but this man...
That Miss Luo was only in her twenties back then, and she must be at least forty now, so her man should also be in his forties.
The village chief stared at Li Yuan in shock. He didn't look like a middle-aged man in his forties.
The key point is that the village chief is only in his forties, but after years of trials and tribulations, wrinkles have already covered his face. Li Yuan opposite him seems to be a man who has been ignored by time, with a hollow face.
When the two men stood together, no one would dare to think that Li Yuan and the village chief were of the same age. Judging from their appearance, the village chief looked like Li Yuan's father, but at least he was his uncle.
Li Yuan looked at the village chief and said, "Tell me everything you know."
“…”
…………
Bodyguards were stationed outside the old house where Shiloh once lived.
Li Yuan walked in again and looked at the small yard overgrown with weeds. He stepped on the weeds with his expensive leather shoes and walked step by step towards a certain direction of the yard.
There is a small flower bed over there, made of bricks. Although it is small, it is very exquisite.
The small flower bed must have once held something, but now only dried flower stalks remained. The soil had cracked from lack of water.
