Chapter 057: The Sound of the Piano in the Old House
City T, five months later.
The cold winter has passed without realizing it. It is March day on earth. Peach blossoms on the branches are blooming in full bloom, and the light pink is floating, giving people who have just transitioned from the warmth and coldness of early spring. Of course, there is a place that makes people feel sad no matter how beautiful the season is, that is, the cemetery...
Gu Yuner came through the flying peach blossoms. The beige coat made her look even thinner. Her long hair naturally hangs behind her waist. She walked towards the tombstone that had just been standing for a short time with expressionless face. At this time, a woman was already standing there, Rong Jin, who was coming with flowers. Five months ago, the famous Brother Hao on the road was shot and killed in a bar street, and an uproar instantly caused. Rong Jin took over the gang according to Qi Hao's arrangement in the name of revenge. Soon the underground gang in T City became a thunderous.
With the reputation of avenging Qi Hao, Rong Jin quickly gained the conviction of the gang. With Acheng's assistance, even his subordinates who had opinions about her in the past bowed down and surrendered to her.
Rong Jin became another tough character after Qi Hao, and was even laughed at him behind his back as "the hornet wasp's tail is the most toxic woman's heart." Of course, these are all off-topics, so I won't say much.
When Acheng, who was standing at the entrance of the cemetery, saw Gu Yuner arrive, bent down respectfully, and the subordinates standing on both sides also made the same moves.
"You're here." Seeing Gu Yuner appear, Rong Jin smiled softly. From the outside, who could imagine that such an elegant woman could be involved with the underworld?
"Ahao will be very happy to see you." She didn't mind Gu Yuner's silence at all, and it could even be said to be envious. Her hands were never stained with blood. At this time, she stood in front of her clean and pure, which made Rong Jin feel ashamed. More importantly, Gu Yuner was deeply loved by Qi Hao.
Since learning about the news of Qi Hao's accident, Gu Yuner has been seriously ill and was sent abroad to recuperate for a while by Gu Zekai. She didn't come back until yesterday. At this time, she looked like a beloved porcelain doll. Her skin was as white as ivory in the sunlight of March, with long eyelashes trembling, and she was neither sad nor happy.
"This was what Ahao asked me to give you before leaving. I knew you were back from abroad. I called me just to give you this thing." Rong Jin said as he took out a chain worn by a man from his pocket, and the key hanging at the end shone in the spring sunshine.
"In the end... what did he say?" It was not until this time that Gu Yuner spoke softly and reached out to take it from Rong Jin. On the eve of Tokyo returning to T City, Qi Hao had this hanging on her neck. She would never forget how happy and moved he was when she handed the key to A Hao. Scenes of the past appeared in front of her, whether it was good or bad, and she was so happy and sad...
Holding the key in his palm, Gu Yuner closed her eyes slightly until she felt the pain and couldn't bear to let go.
"He went very quickly, without any pain, and it might be a good thing for Ahao." Rong Jin sighed, bent down and straightened the white rose he bought, turned around and walked towards Acheng. After taking a few steps, he slowly turned around and looked at Gu Yuner's back.
"Gu Yuner..." She suddenly spoke again, and Gu Yuner turned around slightly, so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off her eyes.
"When I look back, the man is in the dim light." Rong Jin threw down this unidentified sentence, and never looked back this time, and walked towards the direction he came.
************************************************
In the Gu family villa, it is time to eat.
"Yoner, you're in good health just now, don't run around." Gu Zekai put the chicken wings into her bowl. In just a few months, she was so thin that she was so thin, which was heartbreaking to look at.
Five months ago, the news that the gangster boss died on the street made headlines in major news sections in T City. Almost everyone knew about that incident at that time, and Yoona could not bear the blow and fell ill. After several considerations, he contacted Yuan Muyang and sent Yoona to him for five months to recuperate.
Before, Lin Shengxia helped the boy You Tangtang Xiaohuangdou and the other three to sign up for a short outing trip together. I guess he had arrived at the resort at this time. Gu Yuner, who came back yesterday, naturally had not seen her daughter yet. She looked up and smiled softly at Gu Zekai. Her thin fingers, which were originally suitable for the ring, became much empty due to her thinness.
"Tomorrow I will ask the driver to take you back to the old house. I'm afraid you will forget what it looks like there after not going back for so many years. It's just a good time for peach blossoms to bloom, so just take a break." Gu Zekai's words made Gu Yuner pause when she was eating, and looked up at her elder brother. Although she knew that he was kind, she originally wanted to go back to her home tomorrow.
"By the way, I want you to ask me a word to someone who lives there." Gu Zekai's expression did not fluctuate at all, but just said calmly. If it weren't for the company's affairs, he would really want to go out with his Mrs. Gu in such a suitable weather for love.
"What do you mean?" Gu Yuner spoke in confusion.
"The peach blossoms are bright, suitable for the house and home."
************************************************
The next day, Gu Zekai ordered the driver to really send Gu Yuner back to the old house. She still remembered that the last time she came here was because everyone thought that the eldest brother was dead, and she was pregnant with Ziyou. In order to avoid the reporter, Sister Shengxia took her back here. At that time, her mother had not passed away... It was so many years that had passed.
The car slowly got off the highway, and the scenery on both sides of the road became more and more familiar. Gu Yuner, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened the car window, and the spring breeze blew on her face, and the air had a fragrance of peach blossoms. The beautiful scenery like a landscape painting might describe the place on the old house. The peach blossoms were blooming in the green mountains and green waters, and the archway was hanging on both sides of the stone bridge. The red lanterns in front of the wooden doors were somewhat faded after a long time, but it did not hinder the beautiful scenery in spring.
After the driver took Gu Yuner off as Gu Zekai's instructions, he drove away. The peach blossoms in March were red, and the thin petals were delivered in the wind, falling on the ground in patches, like a layer of carpet. The parking area was still a distance from the old house. Gu Yuner put her hands in the pocket of her coat, stepped on the bluestone slab slowly, and walked towards the old house.
The eldest brother told her last night that Sister Shengxia had found him here. The picturesque old house was like magic, and she could find lovers who were in harmony with others, but what about herself? She didn't want others. If this place was really so magical, why couldn't Qi Hao be returned to her? If the price of quitting the gang was to make him lose his life, then she wouldn't let him leave in this life. She would rather live with blood on both hands than being alone.
When the words Qi Hao appeared in her heart again, the overflowing pain almost suffocated her. She stopped and pressed her back against her lips. The sour feeling made her feel like a thorn in her throat and could not say anything. The sun shone on her face, and even the tiny velvet on her face could be seen clearly. The red eye sockets were extremely clear, and the light reflected into her pupils turned the color of her pupils into amber.
It was the time when the students were out of school. The students in school uniforms were running by Gu Yuner with laughter, and a white paper plane flying from somewhere landed in front of her.
Gu Yuner bent down and picked it up. It turned out that no matter how long the time passed or how many people she had come into contact with, she would always be moved inadvertently, causing people to cover their hearts and cry for pain.
She chuckled and threw the paper plane into the trash can next to her. She walked straight towards the old house. Before she could get close, she could faintly hear the sound of piano playing, just like the music played by a beginner just now. Walking along the sound, Gu Yuner was surprised to find that the piano sound was actually coming from the old house.
Since my mother passed away, the old servant in the house has been taken to grandma to take care of, which just made up for Rong Ma's shortcomings, so it should be empty here. Why... Could it be that the eldest brother rented out the old house? Or maybe... this is the person who the eldest brother asked her to tell her about it?
Thinking of this in my heart, Gu Yuner stretched out his hand to push open the wooden door panel, and only a long creaking sound was heard. The ancient door was pushed open, and the piano sound suddenly stopped, and it started to play again. The ding dong dong sound seemed to be playing in her heart. A special gravity made Gu Yuner involuntarily walk into the room......
"Sorry, who is playing the piano?" As she walked, she spoke in a low voice, her steps deliberately slowing down, as if she was afraid of disturbing the person inside, and her heart was beating loudly.
The piano was still ringing, but no one answered her. Gu Yuner's eyebrows showed doubts. When she stepped into the doorbar, the first thing that caught her eye was a familiar piano, a... the piano that was supposed to be Qi Hao's place! If she was still uneasy before, Gu Yuner even held her breathing sound until now.
"You are..." Because of the angle, Gu Yuner could not clearly see the other person's face. The closer she got to her brain, the more empty it became. Until half of the piano, she saw clearly that when she saw the person sitting in front of her, the bag in her hand fell to the ground with a slam, covering her mouth as if she was disbelief!
The man who had died in many reports, the man she had visited his tombstone yesterday, the man she loved deeply, was sitting in front of the piano at this moment, looking at herself with a burning look. His pupils seemed to be burning with flames, but his thin lips had a complex smile, which instantly made Gu Yuner's eyes wide open!
He carefully stretched out his hand to gently stroke his face, but he was afraid of being afraid of being sure and only dared to pause in the air, hesitating until the other party stretched out his big palm to cover the back of her hand and pressed her on his cheek, Gu Yuner felt the truth. Qi Hao in front of him was really alive!
"How can you...How can you lie to me...How can you..." Gu Yuner suddenly squatted down, crying so hard that she couldn't tell herself. If Qi Hao was not dead, why didn't he tell herself? Does he know how he got through the past few months? Even the walking corpse is not as good as...
Tears of grievance fell like heavy rain. She squatted in front of him, lay on Qi Hao's knees, and started crying bitterly.
"Stop crying." Seeing her sad, Qi Hao felt even more distressed. He stretched out his strong arms to hug Gu Yuner into his arms, but she struggled hard, as if he was still angry, angry about what he had hidden from him before! In the past five months, Gu Yuner felt like a dream. The person who was still together before was clearly heard of his voice the night before, but he disappeared when he said he would disappear. There was news of his death everywhere, forcing her to believe it!
With a bang, Qi Hao simply picked up her body and placed it on the piano. The keys were under heavy pressure and made a violent sound, which also made Gu Yuner return to reality again.
If Gu Yuner had lost weight, then Qi Hao would not be much better. She struggled violently just now and hit the wound on his chest, which made Qi Hao groan. After five months, there was still a slight pain there. Gu Yuner realized this and did not dare to move, but reached out to unbutton his shirt, her fingers trembled and could not be targeted several times.
"I'm fine now. This is a game set up by Gu Zekai and me." Qi Hao knew that Gu Yuner would not give up if she didn't see it, so he helped her unbutton her shirt. There was a very obvious scar on her chest near her heart. Although it healed well, it seemed that she had been well treated.
"The reason I haven't looked for you in the past five months is that the news of my life cannot be known by others for the time being, and the second is that I have to make time for Rong Jin to gain a foothold. Since the news of my shooting was exposed, Qi Hao is no longer the person in this world. I now have a new identity, and Gu Zekai has arranged a new identity for me!"
Gu Yuner was confused when she heard this. She just felt like she was having a dream. Why did the elder brother get involved in it?
"What does it mean that Qi Hao is gone in this world? Ahao..." Gu Yuner only felt that he was holding his big palm very hot. Her heart, which had been empty for five months, seemed to be suddenly injected with a warm current, and there was nothing that could be compared!
"It means, Yun'er, I have done what I promised you. I clean myself and stood in front of you again!" Qi Hao's low and hoarse voice echoed in Gu Yun'er's ears. He said that he cleaned himself... stood in front of him again...
Has he ever asked this stupid man if he was willing to do this in such an extreme way?
Her face was foggy and she didn't say anything. She just opened her arms and hugged the man tightly in her arms...
