Chapter 138 Frank and Open
The three of them, who were once the closest of family members, now face to face and don't know what to say to each other.
Gu Zuozuo had never felt that sitting on the sofa was so uncomfortable.
After glancing at Xie Jingyao, who seemed dazed, and then at Gu Tingye, who looked completely out of touch with reality, Gu Zuozuo really wanted to ask, "Don't you two have anything to say?"
"Uh... who was that girl just now?"
Left with no other choice, Gu Zuozuo coughed and asked the question first.
The couple, who had been staring blankly at each other, looked up and saw the same bewildered expression.
[Host, they don't seem to think you're not very bright?]
How have you all been these years?
Looking at the face that resembled her by about four-tenths, Xie Jingyao couldn't help but tear up again.
"We...we are fine. The country has been sending people to protect us...we..."
Xie Jingyao's voice choked with emotion. She wanted to grab her hand but then hesitated and pulled it back, her expression somber.
Gu Zuozuo's lips twitched. She had figured it out. People who were so innocent at their age and without professional knowledge were either too well protected or were just naturally naive and innocent.
But how could someone as knowledgeable and a genius in research as her be like her biological mother? That would be a true naive and innocent girl.
She's silly and idiotic, yet she likes to find sweetness in broken glass.
"Do you all know that I am not her?"
Upon hearing this, the entire room fell into a deathly silence.
Xie Jingyao's face was deathly pale, and you could tell she was about to collapse just by sitting there.
"Ah Yao!"
Gu Tingye hurriedly stepped forward to stand between the two, took out the medicine from his pocket and fed it to her, constantly patting her back with a worried expression.
Gu Zuozuo paused as she was about to step forward, noticing Gu Tingye's guarded posture. She silently sat back down and quietly watched them.
After recovering, Xie Jingyao looked at Gu Zuozuo, who was sitting there like a beautiful woman, and for some reason, a feeling of disgust suddenly welled up in her heart.
It was this wandering ghost, whose origins are unknown, that possessed her beloved daughter's body, causing the elderly couple to bury their child.
"Where is our little girl? You're here, but where is our little girl? Did you kill her?! Did you?!"
The sudden, sharp, high-pitched voice startled Gu Tingye. He quickly grabbed his wife's hand to comfort her, and a hint of wariness, which he himself didn't realize, appeared in his eyes as he looked at Gu Zuozuo.
For some unknown reason, Gu Zuozuo was suddenly overcome by an inexplicable emotion that she couldn't express or swallow, making her so choked up that she almost overturned the table on the spot.
"You think I killed your daughter?"
"Isn't it you?! You wandering ghost, you dragged others down to hell with you after you died! How could my sweet little girl possibly be a match for a wandering ghost like you! Give me back my little girl! Get out of her body!"
It's hard to imagine that a woman who is usually elegant, dignified and generous would appear hysterical like this, her beautiful appearance twisted as if she, Gu Zuozuo, were something that everyone hates.
[Holy crap, she's completely ruined her image!]
The system was dumbfounded. The gentle and kind mother in the original owner's memories had suddenly become like a shrew, which was really hard for the system to accept.
【Host……】
The system cannot see its host's facial expressions; it can only observe the host's fluctuating emotional values, which rise and fall like a rollercoaster.
What terrifies it is that it has almost broken through the critical point several times. If it does, those perverts in the Time and Space Bureau will notice and directly define the host as having a dark mentality and a potential danger of destroying the world. They will forcibly reset its auxiliary system to zero!
Waaah... It doesn't want to! It doesn't want to! It still has an unfinished love affair with its host (through three lifetimes)!
"I'm fine."
Gu Zuozuo's emotions eventually subsided, leaving only a faint sense of loneliness.
