Chapter 228 Buried on the mountain
"Alas, they are all going to be 'sold' anyway."
"Might as well be alone."
Gu Miao no longer looked forward to the warmth of home.
The Gu family is an example, and the Li family... is most likely the same.
sorrow.
"I'm even thinking now that Li Jia's mother died of illness at a young age. Is there something weird about it?"
Anyway, judging from the information collected so far.
Except for a sky-high auction and a wealthy wedding, she did not see the man's love for Yu Jingwen.
Others may be envious of those gorgeous and luxurious things, thinking that Yu Jingwen is lucky.
But is this love?
What that man gave to Yu Jingwen, he could also give to others, or even more.
He has plenty of money.
These don't mean anything.
But for eighteen-year-old Yu Jingwen, this is love.
If there was really such a trace of love, he would not do this to his lover's daughter left in the world, not to mention that this was also his daughter.
He can adopt his first love's son and leave his family property to him without even looking at his daughter.
For a moment, Gu Miao was so angry that she wanted to laugh.
Man, he is really "affectionate".
Slowly exhaling, Gu Miao planned to stay put and pretend she didn't know anything.
Let's wait and see Li Jia's attitude.
[Host, there is one more thing that is related to your life experience. 】
"Huh?" Gu Miao asked him to continue.
[Qi Yu has been investigating your life experience recently. We have already contacted the director of the welfare home at that time. In addition, he was relying on your 'sleep talk' at the time to find your so-called 'biological parents'. 】
"..."
Gu Miao opened her eyes suddenly and was stunned for a full minute before she realized what she was saying, "You mean, he... is looking for traces of my previous existence in this world based on my experience before I traveled through the book?"
【That's it. Because it was inconsistent with reality, his progress was slow and there was no progress. However, he did not give up and has successively contacted the police in more than a dozen cities in an attempt to find missing children who met the requirements. 】
Gu Miao was stunned.
"How long has he been checking?"
The system took a look and replied: [From the day you left Beijing. 】
"..."
Sure enough, he listened to all her so-called sleep talk.
Why?
For no reason, his heart was slightly stagnant, and there was a stinging sensation between the ups and downs of his breathing.
Very strange feeling.
Can't tell.
After a long time, Gu Miao stopped the system, "Tongzi."
【I am here. 】
"If my memory has not been tampered with, I guess that the male protagonist who died at the end of the original book might..."
【Is it Qi Yu? 】The system thought for a while, 【It's not impossible. 】
【Is it because of your dream? But...】
Gu Miao rubbed her eyebrows and said, "I know, there are a lot of things that don't make sense."
"I'm not sure if my memory is confused. Because before that, I didn't seem to remember the appearance of that person that day. Then I had this dream that night... and I saw it was Qi Yu."
"I'm not sure if I put him in there myself."
"It's a bit messy."
Taking a deep breath, "So, I need you to give me an explanation."
The system is silent.
[Sorry host, there are some things that I can’t explain, just like many things that cannot be explained scientifically. 】
"Then do you know what happened after I died?"
Gu Miao never asked this question because she was also afraid.
She died in that small rental house, in that drafty garage.
Maybe no one would find her until her body rotted and the aunt who came to collect the rent would find her.
Then the aunt called the police while cursing bad luck.
It's quite unlucky.
But fortunately, she still has a lot of money left on her.
And the watch and the ring.
Auntie can take it and replace it. "Someone should collect my body, right? I can't really have my ashes thrown away, right?" Gu Miao smiled bitterly.
This time, the system was silent for a long time.
It has been so long that Gu Miao no longer has any expectations and does not intend to continue this topic.
【some. 】
Gu Miao opened her eyes, "Really?"
【Yes. You were buried on the mountain, with flowers blooming in front of the tomb, and no one would disturb you. 】
【But you are not alone. 】
Gu Miao blinked and suddenly smiled, "I hope so."
She didn't think what the system said was true.
I can feel it, this is a comfort.
Alas, it should be said that although her character keeps failing at critical moments, she is still quite humane.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Not too man-machine.
"What about that man? What happened to the man who beat someone to death outside my door?"
[Sorry, I don't know. 】
Gu Miao nodded, not disappointed.
[Host, when everything is over, do you want to go back? 】
[Go back with the bonus, and your life can start again. You can continue to study, do what you want to do, and live happily without worrying about food and clothing. 】
"Sounds good." Gu Miao curled her lips.
Just...
There are so many opportunities to start over.
Her life sucked.
The saplings were eaten by insects, their branches and leaves turned yellow, and fell to the ground, leaving only withered branches.
Others thought that pouring water might save the life.
As everyone knows, the roots that penetrate deep into the earth have long been rotten.
This is also the main reason why she has never directly answered the system whether she wants to go back.
Humans are better at avoiding problems than facing them.
Gu Miao never wanted to back down.
But when it came time to make a choice, she still wanted to retreat.
There are cliffs in front and deep sea behind.
She thought that if she jumped into the sea, she might survive.
Well, at least a whole body can be left.
Fortunately, she was completely unrecognizable and no one recognized her.
The system said nothing more and respected her choice.
After all, it's not over yet, and she always has the chance to choose again.
——
As night fell, Gu Miao slept until dusk.
If the servant hadn't called her downstairs to eat, she might have slept until tomorrow morning.
When I got downstairs, I didn't expect that the old gentleman was not there.
Yuesong is back.
Seeing her flushed cheeks and the sleep marks, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "How many hours do you sleep a day now?"
Why do you feel that she is either eating or sleeping all day long?
"What can I do if I don't sleep?"
Yawning, Gu Miao had not yet woken up, her expression was gloomy and her eyebrows were pressed down, "I want to go back to school to review."
"It makes me feel uneasy to display it like this."
"..."
Just as the housekeeper came down, Gu Miao seized the opportunity and immediately asked:
"Where's grandpa?"
The butler's expression was as usual, "The old gentleman has already eaten, please take your time."
When they left, the two people in the restaurant looked at each other.
Something is wrong.
I noticed a servant lingering nearby.
Gu Miao cleared her throat and asked softly: "What does my brother want to see you for this afternoon?"
"Talk about his date with Bai Qin last night."
I don’t know if it was intentional or not, Yue Song said: “He said that after getting along with him, he felt that the other party was a good marriage partner.”
"..."
