“Child, are you Gu An’an’s child?”
He walked up to Ye Caitang and looked at her excitedly and sadly.
Ye Caitang looked at Mr. Gu who was standing in front of her. Even though he was already middle-aged, he was still handsome and elegant.
She could not help but sigh in her heart:
No wonder her looks were not bad. It turned out that the Gu family had good genes.
She nodded at Mr. Gu.
“Yes, Uncle.’
When Mr. Gu heard how Ye Caitang addressed him, the tears in his eyes couldn’t help but fall silently.
“You…”
“How did you know I’m your uncle?”
He asked in a choked voice.
Ye Caitang smiled and cast a faint glance at Mr. Gu t s face.
“Uncle, you and Mommy look quite alike.”
Gu Minglongs eyes turned red when he heard that.
“Your mother…
“It’s my fault. If I had just taken her away back then…”
“If I didn’t let your mother marry Ye Nancheng, she wouldn’t have…” Ye Caitang cast a conflicted look at Gu Minglong and comforted him,
“Uncle, don’t be sad.’
She said rationally.
“Don’t blame yourself for this.”
“It’s not your fault. Mommy chose the path herself. She has no one but herself to blame.’
When Gu Minglong heard Ye Caitangs answer, he looked at her in surprise.
“You don’t blame me for not taking good care of your mother?”
“Nope.” Ye Caitang asked curiously,
“But I’m very curious. Uncle, why haven’t you been in touch with Mommy for so many years?”
When Gu Minglong heard Ye Caitangs question, he sighed and walked over to Ye Caitang to sit on the sofa.
“This is my fault.”
“Back then, I knew that Ye Nancheng was not as reliable as he seemed on the surface. I advised your mother and grandfather not to trust Ye Nancheng.”
“But they wouldn’t listen to me. They insisted on placing their trust in Ye Nancheng. In a fit of anger, I cut ties with them.”
“If I had been more rational back then and stopped your mother and Ye
Nanchengs wedding,”
“Maybe today’s tragedy wouldn’t have happened.”
Gu Minglong took off his glasses—took the tissue from Ye Caitang—and wiped his tears.
Ye Caitang poured a cup of tea for Gu Minglong and said lightly,
“Uncle, Mommy’s body hasn’t been found yet. I suspect that Mommy isn’t dead.’
“Don’t be so pessimistic.”
Gu Minglong looked at Ye Caitang in surprise.
“You’re saying you didn’t see your mother’s body?”
“Yes.” Ye Caitang nodded and took out the USB drive she had prepared.
Gu Minglong suddenly frowned and said in surprise.
“But why is there a tombstone of your mother in the cemetery?”
“I was visiting her grave earlier and that’s where I rushed back from.”
“There’s a tombstone of Mommy in the cemetery?” Ye Caitang instantly stood up in astonishment, her eyes cold.
“Who erected the tombstone?”
Gu Minglong looked at Ye Caitang—who was equally shocked—and said with a puzzled expression,
“I don’t know who erected the tombstone either. If it wasn’t you, could it be Ye Nancheng?”
When Ye Caitang heard Gu Minglongs question, the corners of her lips curled
up mockingly.
“How could it be Ye Nancheng?”
“He’s busy preparing for his daughter, Ye Muxue’s funeral. How would he have the mood for Mommy’s affairs?”
Gu Minglong frowned.
“Why do I feel that there is something strange about this?”
Ye Caitang narrowed her beautiful eyes and nodded in agreement.
“Yeah, 1 also think it is very strange.. Does it have something to do with my parentage?”
