"You asked her to take a shower because you wanted to get her out of the way so you can talk to me alone!"

Sang Leng waited for Sang Yuwan to enter the bathroom, and only spoke with a cold face after hearing the sound of water.

Gu Mingyu said with a sullen face: "Since you know, don't waste your time."

"I do not want to tell you."

Sang Leng lowered his eyes and refused.

Gu Mingyu said, "If you don't tell me, I will find out sooner or later as long as I check. But I hope you can tell me now, because Nuannuan will not give up on this matter. I don't know how much she knows, but she will definitely find out the cause of death of those two people. If I know in advance, I will be more considerate of her feelings."

"Didn't she already..."

"She must have heard the rumor, but she must not be sure and does not believe it. Even you were surprised to hear this, weren't you?"

Gu Mingyu interrupted her.

Sang Leng sighed.

She was indeed surprised to hear this, but she also accepted it easily.

That's because she didn't like these two people in the first place, so she could accept it easily.

But her sister is different.

She was raised by them, and in her heart she always regarded those two people as her relatives.

It’s normal to be unable to accept this kind of news that subverts your worldview.

"Okay, I'll tell you."

Sang Leng sighed and had no choice but to tell him.

"When Nuan Nuan was abducted, the adoptive family's son was not blessed with good fortune, but died instead. The adoptive family did not intend to abandon her, but continued to sell her.

However, Nuannuan escaped and became a wanderer, and was adopted by this couple. In Nuannuan's memory, they were indeed very kind to her, and at first we also thought that Nuannuan had met good people.

It was not until we found Nuan Nuan and they asked us for a large sum of money that we realized things were not that simple. Sure enough, they asked for money every year. We did not tell Nuan Nuan about these things. They only wanted money and never thought about seeing Nuan Nuan again. My father realized that something was wrong, so he came to investigate in person and found out that they had adopted several children over the years, and they were all girls.

But when the child was a teenager, he disappeared, saying that he was taken away by his family, but in fact no one knows how true it is. My father realized that something was wrong, so he called the police, hoping that the police could investigate it.

However, the police investigated and could not find the cause, so the matter was left unresolved.

The couple still asked for money every year. My father was very angry and went to talk to them. They said that if they didn't give them money, they would go find Nuannuan and ask her to leave with them. Their despicable faces were completely exposed. In order to protect Nuannuan, my father had no choice but to compromise.

About five or six years ago, the other party suddenly stopped calling, and we didn't think much about it. If they didn't contact us, we certainly wouldn't contact them. Unexpectedly, they died, and in this way. Although I was surprised just now, I was more fortunate that I found Nuannuan earlier and didn't let her suffer. "

"I really didn't expect that you were blackmailed for so many years."

Gu Mingyu was shocked after hearing the whole story.

But then he thought again, their family are all scholars, and a scholar would be helpless when faced with a gangster.

Sang Leng said: "After my brother and I knew about the situation, we were against it. But Dad...he said he had to protect Nuannuan. I don't know if he heard about other things and didn't want Nuannuan to be caught up in this kind of public opinion. I can't understand his thoughts and decisions. Maybe it's because I'm not a parent yet, so I can't understand this behavior."

"So you haven't told her the truth all these years?" Gu Mingyu asked.

Sang Leng said: "Dad was coerced by them, in addition to wanting to protect Nuannuan's innocence, there is another reason, which is that he doesn't want her to come into contact with these two people. In Nuannuan's mind, these two people are the best and closest people to her.

Nuannuan ran away from home several times and took the train to come here to find them. If her father hadn't given her money, these two people would definitely meet her. Because of the bribes, every time Nuannuan came, they would hide and not see her. Otherwise, Nuannuan would not have been able to keep in touch with them. "

"You should have told her the truth earlier. Once she knows the truth, she won't come to them again." Gu Mingyu said.

Sang Leng said: "I said, I am not a parent, so I don't understand the thoughts of parents. My father has his own reasons for making this decision, but his starting point is for Nuan Nuan's good."

"But the truth cannot be hidden. She still came and found out about these things."

"Do you think she will investigate?" Sang Leng asked.

Gu Mingyu sneered and asked, "What do you think? If it were you, wouldn't you want to know the truth? She is just naive, but not stupid."

After a pause, Gu Mingyu said in a deep voice: "So now I finally understand why you despise her for being stupid and always like to lecture her. Because you know all the truth, but on the one hand you hide it to protect her selfishly, and on the other hand you despise her for not being smart enough to discover it herself. In this contradiction, it's not only her who is driven crazy, but also you yourselves."

Sang Leng was silent.

She knew there was nothing she could do to stop it.

"I don't know how to tell her now that I've already told you. So when she comes out later, you can tell her about it. I also need to go back to my room and call Dad to tell him what happened here."

After that, he stood up and left.

Gu Mingyu: “…”

She was really smart. It turned out that she was willing to tell him in advance in order to avoid it.

When Sang Yuwan came out, Sang Leng had already left.

Sang Yuwan wiped her hair and asked, "Where's my sister?"

"Go back to your room and rest."

"Why did she leave? No, I have to go find her. I have something to ask her."

"She told me everything and asked me the same question," said Gu Mingyu.

Sang Yuwan looked at him in surprise.

Because he was too surprised, he forgot what he was going to do and stopped.

Gu Mingyu saw this and stood up, took the towel and continued to wipe her hair.

After wiping her, he went back to the bathroom and got a hair dryer to dry her.

"What did my sister tell you?"

Sang Yuwan asked in a murmur.

"Let's talk after we blow dry your hair."

Gu Mingyu said.

Sang Yuwan lowered her eyes!

In fact, she hasn't been here for many years.

When I was a child, I had quarrels with my family and ran here several times.

However, there were a few times when we were stopped by police on the way and sent home.

Only twice did she succeed in reaching this place.

But we couldn't find them, and no one nearby knew where they were.

After all, the two of them rarely interact with other people.

At that time she thought they had left this place.

Dad also told her that he gave them some thank-you money.

She thought they had already received the thank-you fee and stopped doing the scrap collection business and lived the life they wanted.

In fact, when she grew up a little, she also felt resentful.

She complained that they loved her so much and treated her so well, but never came to see her.

So gradually, she was unwilling to come to them again.

This time I was so sad and felt so guilty towards Gu Mingyu that I couldn't help but come over again.

Unexpectedly, when she took a taxi and told him where she was going, the taxi driver told her.

There have been deaths in this place. An old man died, murdered. An old lady also died, hanging herself.

When she heard the news, her eyes turned red on the spot and she quickly asked what was going on?

She thought that the two of them were living alone and were targeted by bad guys and were being harmed.

But the taxi driver told her that they took in a little girl, who was about 11 or 12 years old, and the old man had evil intentions. Unexpectedly, he was killed by the girl.

Later, the police intervened in the investigation and found that the old man and the old woman had taken in many girls before.

In name they were doing good deeds and adopting children, but secretly they were engaging in buying and selling transactions.

When the old lady was questioned and investigated, she realized that her secret had been exposed, so she simply hanged herself with a rope.

The case ended just like that.

After hearing this story, she almost collapsed!

All beliefs collapsed and the man sat in the junk house for a long time.

It wasn't until Gu Mingyu came over that she came to her senses.

"Blow dry and comb your hair."

Gu Mingyu rubbed her fluffy and smooth hair and put away the hair dryer.

Sang Yuwan combed her hair herself.

After combing her hair, she looked at Gu Mingyu and asked, "Can you tell me now?"

Gu Mingyu nodded, hugged her first, and kissed her on the forehead.

Then he slowly and softly told her everything Sang Leng had said.

Of course, she also said what she had said to her father.

"Even if they want to protect you, their way is wrong. So don't feel guilty. If you don't want to go back, you don't have to go back. If you don't want to see them, you don't have to see them."

"Do you think I'm stupid too?" Sang Yuwan asked crying.

Gu Mingyu wiped her tears and said gently, "Of course not. In my heart, you are the cutest, most innocent, and most beautiful girl. Otherwise, how could I like you?"

"I didn't expect them...they are such people." Sang Yuwan said crying.

Gu Mingyu said: "To many people, they are indeed bad people. But people have many sides, and they are sincere to you, so they have always taken good care of you."

"No, they definitely weren't. Actually, now that I think about it, they weren't that nice to me. It's because my previous foster family treated me so badly, and I was wandering for a while, so I thought they were good people if they didn't beat or scold me. Maybe they didn't let me work because they wanted to keep me fair and tender and buy me new clothes, or maybe they wanted to sell me for a good price. But before they could do it, I was found by my family. If they really liked me, they wouldn't have secretly blackmailed my father."

Sang Yuwan said while crying.

Gu Mingyu hugged her tightly with heartache.

For a person to truly grow, he needs to be tempered by life and experience the pain of being torn apart.

In fact, now he somewhat understands why Yang Shengyu didn't want her to know the truth.

But fortunately, I am by her side now.

Even if it has to hurt, he will ease her pain!

"I'll accompany you to the Public Security Bureau tomorrow to learn all the details of the case," Gu Mingyu suggested.

Now that the hole has been torn, we might as well tear it wider. Only by burning our boats can we turn the tide!
