Home/ The White-eyed Wolves I Personally Raised Are All Coveting My Legacy/ Chapter 11 (Part 1)
The two sat back by the window again. But this time the relationship between the two has changed.
Gu Quan, “Just say what you want to say.”
Yu Zheng hesitated for a while and asked, “Gu Quan, do you know why the two elder brothers of your Gu family and your mother can’t tolerate you?”
“They dislike me for being clumsy and stupid!”
“No.”
“What do you mean?” Gu Quan didn’t understand.
Yu Zheng went straight to the point, “Because you are not Madam Gu’s child.”
“What?” Gu Quan was startled, and jumped up from his chair, “Yu Zheng, don’t talk nonsense!”
How could he not be Mrs. Gu’s child? It’s just that the Gu family is greedy for profit and covet fame. If he really had no blood relationship with that family, let alone anything else, his father would never let himself into the house.
What exactly is Yu Zheng talking about? Is he crazy?
However, Yu Zheng turned on the phone and played a recording to Gu Quan. The speaker’s voice was hoarse, but in the background, there was a clear and crisp singing of birds.
“Tsk, that Gu Quan is really a fool. My father is a snob, but how can my mother not love her son at all? But he is so easy to toss around, so stupid.”
“Those of us on this road can’t compete with each other for the big mountains above. Why can’t we just be a down-to-earth coward, have money to spend, and live a better life? Look at this bird, it’s coaxed to be happy, and it can live a peaceful life for a few days.”
“Who? Who is this person talking about?” Grasping Yu Zheng’s clothes, Gu Quan leaned closer, wishing he could get into the phone and ask directly.
What this person said was vague, but the meaning was incomparably true. Mother, mother, in the eyes of that person, isn’t Mrs.Gu his mother?
Gu Quan listened to the recording several times, every word was torn apart and crumbled, and his face became more and more ugly.
Yu Zheng grabbed him, tried to calm him down, and explained something at the same time.
“I went to buy a bird from the Shi family’s second young master that day. I originally wanted to record the instructions about how to train the bird. But later, he said something about the Gu family. I thought it was strange, so I just asked a little more.”
“Yes, but he has no evidence!”
“I know, so later I inquired about the details from other sources.” Looking at Gu Quan, Yu Zheng showed a little pity in his eyes.
“The one who gave me the tattoo was Lu Ming’s little lover raised by that inconspicuous Lu family. When we chatted, he mentioned this matter. He said that when Si Yang found me, he was very cautious, and at the same time, he did the DNA test with both father and mother. But before you were sent back home, there was only a paternity test with the father and they did it seven times in different hospitals, only then did Mrs. Gu reluctantly agreed to let you enter the Gu family house.”
Gu Quan was completely stunned, “Then you mean that she is not my mother. What about my mother? Who is my real mother?”
Yu Zheng shook his head, “Probably not here anymore.”
“The Gu family cares most about face. When they let you in the family, it was because Mr.Gu said that the Gu family should not have any bastard sons outside. If your father can do such a shameful thing, he must take you back home.”
“But later, Mr.Gu passed away. There was a problem with the Gu family’s business, and it was only thanks to Mrs.Gu’s natal family that they survived those difficult times. Coincidentally, you were kidnapped at that time.”
“So, after you were abducted, they didn’t even look for you sincerely, and gave up after less than a month. They let the police treat it as an unsolved case. After hearing this, I thought that if your biological mother was still there at that time, how could she give up on you so easily?”
“What about her now?”
“They gave up the mother and kept the child. For a woman, giving birth to a child alone is like walking through hell.”
“No, it can’t be, it’s human life.” Gu Quan’s face turned pale. What Yu Zheng said was unbelievable, and even a bloody TV drama about the grudges and grievances of wealthy families didn’t dare to write like this. But Yu Zheng lightly broke his last hope.
“Really? Then the difficult childbirth was an accident. It was an accident that you were abducted. Was it also an accident that you were humiliated when you returned to the Gu Family’s house?”
“I don’t believe it, you are lying!”
“Calm down. I only ask you one question, your father, your nominal mother, your eldest brother and second brother, none of them care about you, have you really never thought about why?
“It’s all a family connected by blood, why are you the only one not included?”
“Your second brother, on the surface, works in Gu’s company, but in fact he is ignorant as a fool but Mrs.Gu still protects such a thing like a treasure. Why can’t she do the same for you?”
“…” Yu Zheng hit the nail on the head, Gu Quan didn’t know how to answer. But Yu Zheng’s next words were even more ruthless, directly stabbing Gu Quan’s broken heart, which was already dripping with blood.
“Gu Quan, was there anyone to welcome you the day you went home?”
“Did someone cry and hug you and say that they are happy to see you safe and sound?”
“Did someone stay with you all night, afraid of losing you again?”
“Someone…”
“Enough!” The wound in his heart was completely torn open, Gu Quan lost control and pushed Yu Zheng away fiercely, and asked him back as if he wanted revenge, “I don’t have someone, then do you? You are just a canary raised by Si Yang!”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Gu Quan felt that he had said something unforgivable and covered his mouth, and the embarrassment on his face completely faded.
Then he saw Yu Zheng slowly raised the corners of his lips, stating a fact in a very natural and calm tone, “You’re right, I don’t have anyone either!”
“No, I… that’s not what I meant.” Gu Quan wanted to explain, but unexpectedly found that there seemed to be blood on Yu Zheng’s right trouser leg.
“What’s wrong with your leg?” Gu Quan walked over and lifted Yu Zheng’s trouser leg, there were seven or eight scars all over it. Among them, the three frontmost wounds were very deep, and they had already cracked open after being pushed just now, and the blood was seeping out.
Gu Quan saw that it didn’t look like a wound left by a fall, and subconsciously thought that Si Yang had done something to him.
“I’ll go and ask him!” Gu Quan’s mind became hot, and he got up to find Si Yang to question him. He recognized that Yu Zheng had a knife wound on his leg. It has only been half a month since he came back, and Si Yang can mistreat him like this, wouldn’t he want Yu Zheng’s life after a while?
For a moment, Gu Quan couldn’t tell if he was angry because of Yu Zheng, or if he was feeling sorry for himself.
But Yu Zheng grabbed his hand and shook his head, “It’s not him, it’s me.”
“Why?” Yu Zheng said nothing to let him go, Gu Quan had no choice but to take out the ointment and apply the medicine in a hurry, but his trembling hands couldn’t even open the lid of the medicine.
“Don’t bother, it will be fine in a while.” Yu Zheng held him down. He casually took some gauze and wrapped it around the wound, then said something, “Turn around, I want to change clothes.”
He took off this suit and changed into another dark suit, then turned around and cut off the blood-stained trousers and put them in the canary’s cage to make a nest for it.
“What’s wrong with you?” Gu Quan didn’t understand at all.
Who is Yu Zheng? In the village, he was the kind of person who can even grit his teeth and survive when the sky falls. At that time, every day was like hell, and Yu Zheng could endure it, and still find ways to protect himself. But now, he’s at a point where is hurting himself.
“I haven’t gone out of the house since I was brought back until Si Yang personally took me out a week ago.” Yu Zheng looked at him, his eyes finally turning sad.
“Where did you go?”
“Qiulu Cemetery, I only found out that my parents had passed away that day.”
“!!!” Gu Quan couldn’t believe it.
Yu Zheng added, “Si Yang told me in front of my parents’ grave that he intentionally let me get kidnapped.”
“Before that day, I always thought that Si Yang was my only family member in this world even though he never returned home after he brought me back. Then I realized that he didn’t really want me to come back, it’s just that he needed me to come back. Only by holding on to me can he legitimately own the Yu family in his hands.”
“Gu Quan, you and I have always been the same.”
Gu Quan took a step back, and looked at the person in front of him who was obviously in extreme grief but couldn’t even cry. He finally completely lost control of his emotions and covered his face while squatting down on the ground.
But Yu Zheng handed him a pack of tissues, and then excused himself to go out to ask the maid to get some snacks, leaving space for him.
“Is it okay to leave the young master of the Gu family upstairs?” Outside the door, the maid followed behind Yu Zheng three steps away.
“It’s okay.” Yu Zheng’s voice was filled with laughter, “You all don’t know Gu Quan’s taste, I will pick the snacks for him.”
