Chapter 44: Gu Ziyang
“Then why did you help me?”
Ye Qingwan regretted asking this question.
Gu Shimo glanced at her from the side. He held the steering wheel with his well-defined joints and looked ahead.
After a while.

Only then did his low voice echo in the sealed car.
“What do you think?”
He actually asked her back.
Ye Qingwan was stunned.
Her small face changed slightly, and she clenched her fists.
” Big brother is because five years ago, that one night and guilty?”
“No.”
“Is it because of the car accident fifteen years ago?”
“Not really.”
“..”
“Because I promised Auntie Ye that I would take care of you. It was also because you believed the rumors and thought that your parents ‘deaths were caused by my parents.”
“Brother, do you think that’s just a rumor?”
“Isn’t it?”
His voice deepened.
Who else would she believe in other than him?
She would listen to anyone.
She didn’t like to hear his words.
Ye Qingwan suddenly laughed.
Before his laughter reached his eyes, he asked mockingly,” Then, what if it really has something to do with your parents? Will Brother put justice before family, or will he silence me?”
“That day won’t come.”
Gu Shimo’s tone was solemn and serious.
Ye Qingwan’s heart sank.
He did not continue the topic.
She turned to look out of the car window and did not speak for the rest of the journey.
Gu Shimo drove in silence.
He would occasionally turn to look at her.
They sat in the same carriage but each had their own thoughts.
He had helped her deliver the necklace and install the camera to prove his parents ‘innocence.
Even though his mother had forced him to marry the Bai family and then forced Ye Qingwan to swear a venomous oath.
However, Gu Shimo still believed that his mother was vicious enough to kill someone.
When they arrived at the airport, it was already dusk.
The neon lights of the city lit up the night and also lit up the handsome figure walking over from afar.
Gu Ziyang was dressed in white and black pants.
There were no other changes.
It still made people feel warm at a glance.
Gu Shimo opened the car door and got out, asking Ye Qingwan to wait in the car.
He stood at the front and watched Gu Ziyang walk over from the crowd.
The two brothers reached out their fists and gently punched each other’s shoulders.
Gu Ziyang smiled and called out to him,” Brother, long time no see.””
“It’s been five years. You’re really willing to not come back even once.”
Gu Shimo looked at his younger brother, whom he had not seen for five years, and his emotions were inexplicably complicated.
Gu Ziyang looked at the car behind Gu Shimo and asked,” Brother, didn’t you say that you were going to bring someone over? Where is it?”
“In the car. You know him.”
“I know him. Let me see if he’s…”
Gu Ziyang suddenly stopped talking.
He saw the person sitting in the passenger seat clearly. It was Ye Qingwan, who they had searched all over South City but could not find five years ago.
She was the girl whom he had once wanted to wait for her to graduate from university, confess to her, and cherish for the rest of his life.
He was rooted to the spot.
He forgot to ask her where she had been all these years.
Gu Shimo noticed the change in Gu Ziyang’s emotions and frowned slightly.
The car door opened.
Ye Qingwan got out of the car.
She walked up to Gu Ziyang.
Her features were as beautiful as a painting.
The word ” Brother Ziyang ” pulled Gu Ziyang back from his thoughts.
For the first time, he opened his mouth and made a sound.
The second time, he reached out and hugged Ye Qingwan tightly.
His low and hoarse voice rang in her ears.” Wanwan, it’s great that you’re still alive.”
Hearing Gu Ziyang’s words, Ye Qingwan’s heart was filled with warmth and sorrow.
They were all very good to her.
But…
Her body stiffened slightly in his arms.
Gu Shimo said at the right time,” Ziyang, get in the car first. Wanwan didn’t come back alone.”
Gu Ziyang let go of Ye Qingwan.
She looked at Gu Mo in confusion.” Brother, what do you mean by Wanwan didn’t come back alone? Did she bring a friend with her?””
“Let’s talk in the car.”
As soon as Gu Shimo finished speaking.
Gu Ziyang said to Ye Qingwan,” Wanwan, come sit behind me. I have a lot of questions for you.””
“Alright.”
Ye Qingwan ignored Gu Shimo’s gaze.
She sat in the back row with Gu Ziyang.
Gu Shimo was treated like a chauffeur.
Once they got into the car, Gu Ziyang couldn’t wait to ask,” Wanwan, what happened five years ago? Why didn’t you contact us or go home? We couldn’t find you no matter how hard we tried.”
“I narrowly escaped death. Due to special reasons, I couldn’t contact you.”
Ye Qingwan told him about the crazy kidnapping five years ago in a few words.
When Gu Ziyang heard the words ” narrowly escaped death,” his handsome face changed.” The specifics…” Do you know who did it?”
“Brother Ziyang, that’s all in the past. I don’t know who did it.”
“Then why didn’t you contact me when you came back? Did you come back because you knew that my brother was getting married?”
In the front row, Gu Shimo’s grip on the steering wheel tightened.
Her thin lips pursed into a line.
Ye Qingwan felt the change in his aura and said calmly,”Yes, I knew that Brother Shi Mo and Bai Shanshan were getting married, so I specially came back to attend the wedding.””
“Fortunately, I came back early. Wanwan, you must have suffered a lot these years, right?”
“..”
“By the way, my brother said that you didn’t come back alone. Did you bring a friend back?”
The second half of the sentence.
Gu Ziyang asked hesitantly.
If he hadn’t looked at her carefully just now…
Ye Qingwan was sitting next to him.
Not only did he see her clearly, but he also saw the faint hickey on her neck.
His heart froze for a moment.
Ye Qingwan pursed her lips.
Gu Shimo, who was sitting in the front row, had been very quiet.
At this moment, he had no intention of answering for her.
When Ye Qingwan looked up and met Gu Ziyang’s concerned eyes, a smile appeared on her lips.
She said gently,” He’s not a friend. He’s my child, Ye Zixi.””
Gu Ziyang’s expression froze.
Even though the hickey on her neck made him guess at a certain possibility.
However, she did not expect that she already had a child.
He forced a stiff smile and asked,” Then, how old is Zixi? Do you have a photo? Let me see.”
“Yes.”
Ye Qingwan took out her phone and showed Gu Ziyang the photos of Zi Ran.
It was on her screensaver.
This time, Gu Ziyang’s handsome face turned pale.
He didn’t say anything for a long time.
The carriage fell silent.
Gu Ziyang only calmed down when Ye Qingwan’s phone rang.
After taking a look at Shi Mo in the front row, she lowered her eyelids.
“Mom, are you still working? Uncle isn’t back either. Are you with Uncle? Are you back for dinner?”
On the other end of the phone, Ye Zixi asked a series of questions.
Although it wasn’t a foreign voice.
But Gu Ziyang was sitting next to Ye Qingwan.
She still heard Ye Zixi’s words and the word ” uncle ” in her mouth.
He was slightly shocked.
Ye Qingwan’s voice was gentle.” We’ll be home soon.””
As she spoke, she turned to meet Gu Ziyang’s gaze. She laughed again and said,” Zixi, there’s an uncle coming over later. Did you prepare enough food?””
..
“Qingwan, Zixi is so young. Does she know how to cook? Who’s the uncle he’s talking about?”
Ye Qingwan hung up.
Gu Ziyang asked in surprise.
From the photo he saw just now, Zixi was simply a replica of his brother.
He looked like he was at most three or four years old.
However, Wanwan asked him if the food he prepared was enough.
