Mr. Shan was asked by Ji Xinyao's words, stood beside the hospital bed, and kept looking at her.
Old Ji asked. Ji Xinyao raised his eyebrows faintly and chuckled, "Or, is it something in this person's hand that makes you feel very important?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a little sharpness burst out in Dan Lao Jiongliang's eyes: "So, do you really recognize her?"
"Old Shan is so angry and so concerned. I just took advantage of the chat and asked a few more questions and gave me more examples. Besides, what if I know me? What if I don't know me? But I don't understand. If Mr Shan really wants to find this person, why have to wait for more than twenty years? Haven't you ever thought that more than twenty years can change too many things in more than twenty years? Maybe the person you are looking for is already dead, maybe?"
When Ji Xinyao said this, the smile in her eyes made people feel like she was joking, but what she was talking about was a fact.
Shan Xiaoou is dead. What's the use of Shan Heping now looking for her whereabouts? No matter what kind of relationship she has with him, it's too late. So why should I tell these facts? As for the relationship between Mr. Shan's status and Shan Ying, Ji Xinyao is even more willing to have any connection with the Shan family.
Old Dan frowned, and always looked at her, as if he wanted to find a flaw in Ji Xinyao's expression, but her smile was too quiet and calm, making people unable to see what kind of thought she had.
Seeing him squint his eyes and looking at him, Ji Xinyao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Old Shan?"
Old Dan paused, and his eyes were gradually retracted when he stared at her, but he seemed to feel a little hesitant: "Miss Ji, I heard that you have been growing up in May y since childhood. No matter whether the Ji family favors you very much, you were once from City y after all."
He hesitated for a moment, as if he didn't want to tell too many secrets to a girl he could not trust, but in recent days he has increasingly identified her life experience. Combined with some of her past that he had checked, and from all aspects, there must be something that was deliberately concealed.
Ji Xinyao said nothing, just lowered her head and flipped through the magazine in her hand casually, but no longer read any words in it.
At this time, Mr. Dan turned around and walked to the door of the ward, opened the door and looked out, and then came back and closed the door of the ward tightly. Ji Xinyao looked up at his actions and subconsciously frowned.
Xiaoyu was playing with the doll in his hand, and happily shouted "Grandpa!" from time to time, but he was all thinking about the doll. Old Shan stopped by the door and walked back for a moment, staring at Ji Xinyao's face and her calm expression, and smiled faintly: "Miss Ji is so calm and composed, but she really has the style of my Shan family."
He was straight in and his eyes were bright. Although he was not wearing a military uniform, he could wear an ordinary and casual dress suitable for the elderly. He could also wear it with a strong military spirit. Like Mr. Gu, Mr. Dan, he was a man who was not angry and powerful. Although he was old, he stood by the bedside, straight and very energetic.
"Ms. Ji once conducted government affairs reports. I'm afraid you've already learned some of the situations in my Shan family before I returned to China," he said.
Ji Xinyao curled her lips: "You have returned to China for the first time in more than 20 years. Of course, some information needs to be familiar with domestic government media to avoid any mistakes during communication."
"Do you know I only have one son who died young? And now the only granddaughter of Shin-Liao Chanying?"
"Know."
Although Ji Xinyao knew it, she hesitated for a moment.
Mr. Dan turned around and walked to the window not far from her bed, facing the window, looking out the window, and then slowly said: "I am suspicious by nature. When I was young, I was extremely cautious in dealing with things. Although it was organized, I also made the biggest mistake in my life because of these prudence and suspicion."
"My wife gave birth to two children for me. My eldest son Shan Hongzhang is Shan Ying's father. Unfortunately, he died of illness when Shan Ying was still very young. The other child..." His tone stopped, and then he sighed: "It's a daughter. It's just that my wife was pregnant with this daughter. It was the month when I went abroad to work. At that time, my wife had a good relationship with an officer in our army. Someone found out that they had dinner together one night. The news came to me at that time. After I went back to work, my wife became pregnant. The doctor said that she was pregnant was exactly the month when I was away."
Ji Xinyao frowned as she heard this and looked at Mr. Dan's straight figure.
"I was suspicious, and the city was full of storms in the military region. I was furious when I went back. Even though I knew my wife was pregnant, I still beat her. Maybe it was because she was still young at that time, with a different mentality, and she was easily angry when she encountered things. She hated this woman who dared to betray her. She couldn't accept that her wife, who had been sleeping with her for so many years, had an affair with other men. At that time, she didn't explain a word, but she kept staring with tears when I hit her.
I was so angry that I was beaten until her lower body was bleeding and I regained some reason. Seeing her lying weakly there, I hurriedly sent her to the hospital. Later, the doctor said that the child was beaten by me, and she was very weak and refused to see me. I was still angry at that time and couldn't calmly consider it. I reported to the military district directly, signed a divorce, and no longer cared about her life or death. This was the biggest shame I thought I had in my life and I didn't want to mention it to anyone."
"I also claim to the public that I only have one son. Because I have been busy with business for many years and have no intention of coaxing those troubled women, I did not remarry after the divorce. That matter was also blocked by me and I will never mention it." 13acv.
Mr. Shan suddenly sighed a long sigh, as if he was instantly exhausted from all his strength: "Twenty-five or six years ago, I was physically and mentally exhausted by some too difficult and difficult cases. It was that year that my son passed away and I resigned from office and went abroad. I no longer care about political affairs and focused on raising Shan Ying. Since then, all my thoughts have been on Shan Ying, the precious granddaughter."
"Later, about ten years ago, I met the doctor in a Chinese hospital in the United States. After all, I was a national leader and Chinese people at home and abroad know me. The doctor recognized me at a glance. He told me that my wife was still there when she was sent to the hospital that year, but my wife was too weak and had been recuperating in the hospital. Finally, she gave birth to a daughter eight months later, but she died of difficult labor."
"The doctor told me that because the domestic medicine was underdeveloped at that time and my wife's physical condition was special, it led to a misdiagnosis. She was pregnant for two months at that time, not one month."
Speaking of this, Mr. Dan raised his hand, rubbed his eyebrows, and said tiredly: "From then on, I paid the price for my suspicion, but I can't find my daughter's whereabouts when she was born to death."
"The doctor told me that on the day my wife gave birth to her daughter, she called some of her friends and asked them to take care of one of the young women. I know that most of her friends have a prominent family background, so I went to investigate after learning the truth. Unfortunately, it was too late to find the truth ten years ago. Those people were unable to find them everywhere, and most of them went abroad."
"The power of the Shan family can't stretch too long in the United States, so in the first few years, the search for her daughter has always been the biggest thing I remember. I want to find her, atone for the mistakes I have made, and make up for the harm and shadows that she brought to her mother and her. But those people hid her too deeply, and I only found out later that her name was Shan Xiaoou."
"It was five or six years ago, and Xiaoou's adoptive mother was finally willing to show up. I only knew the name of the child and what I had experienced after birth. Her adoptive mother was once a prominent family in China. She moved her family to the United States and brought Xiaoou together, allowing Xiaoou to receive Western education in the United States since she was a child. I heard that she had learned oil painting and had painted very well. Unfortunately, when I knew all this, Xiaoou's adoptive mother could no longer find her. They lost their family when Xiaoou was sixteen years old. When she returned to China to visit relatives for the last time, Xiaoou and them were lost, and they could never find her again."
Mr. Shan took out the old photo from his arms. On it was Shan Xiaoou's appearance when he was in his teenage years old, young and lively, with a smile on his face.
"They said that my daughter, I have known her surname since she was a child, and she knew her life experience and what her mother had when she was pregnant with her, but she never said she would come to see me, as a father. I know that this child hates me, doesn't want to see me, nor does he recognize me, but I want to compensate her, but when I know all this, it's too late..."
"I thought this child would never see me in my life. I always had this knot in my heart. If I could not see this daughter in this life and could not do anything for her, I would probably not be in peace even if I died."
"Xiao'o's adoptive mother said that Xiao'o's personality is very stubborn and smart. She learns quickly. She exudes the courage and demeanor of a boy in her bones. When she is attacked, she looks like a hedgehog. But she also has many kind sides in her personality. When she becomes gentle, people want to hurt her bones. However, she knows her life experience, but she refuses to see me, her father for decades..."
Old Dan suddenly turned around and looked at Ji Xinyao with a stunned expression: "Miss Ji, you are really like her."
Ji Xinyao opened her mouth, but couldn't make a sound for a moment, and a big hole seemed to be empty in her heart.
She always knew that her mother's background might be unusual. She knew that her mother was a person with a story, but she never thought it would be such a complicated story.
Mr. Shan continued: "Because you are your daughter of Ji Qiuhang, I have some old friendship with Chief Ji. He is a junior and respectful to me. I have found an opportunity to let her reveal about your mother, but he didn't mention it, including Chief Ji's wife He Manni, who never mentioned it about your mother. After all, this is the private matter of your Ji family. Although I want to ask, there is no reason to force it too much."
"I only have a few photos of Xiaoou here. I will take a few glances at these photos every day. At the beginning, I didn't pay attention to them. It was the previous time in Guzhai. When Shan Ying was injured by a wrist, you stood very close to me. I carefully saw your facial features. You look very similar to my daughter. Maybe I was a little confused at the beginning and wanted to ask Miss Ji, some things, but Miss Ji's avoidance made me very angry. In addition, I don't like you more and more. "
Ji Xinyao then smiled coldly: "Old Shan, you have a high position and a powerful person. I, a young citizen who has no status and no status, should be satisfied if you take a few glances at me. How dare you please like me?"
Hearing the sarcasm in her words, Mr. Dan frowned first, and then walked back to the bed. Looking at her thoughtful expression with her head down, she narrowed her eyes, as if she was even more sure who she was.
"Are you Xiaoou's daughter?" he asked, not a question, but a tone of affirmation.
If it weren't for sure, he wouldn't say so much to her.
If Ji Xinyao didn't tell the truth at this time, she would have to fight against Mr. Shan. After hearing the secret he had been hidden for more than 40 years in vain, could he let her go?
But, even though she was in a storm at the moment, although she thought that she might have some relationship with Mr. Dan, she didn't expect that it would be such a close relationship. Her lips squirmed a few times, then she pursed her lips tightly without saying anything.
She felt that she was suddenly confused. If her mother always knew her life experience, why did she not reveal her life experience when she was in a downturn, or even when Ji Qiuhang abandoned her because she disliked her unclear life experience and could not bring benefits? Didn’t she use the identity of this cruel father to give herself a chance to find happiness?
Since it is not forced to be under pressure from life, since things can turn around, why do you want to commit suicide? And why do you have to forge that fake crystal necklace? What exactly is she going to do...
"You don't want to say now, I won't force you." Seeing her silent, Mr. Shan looked at her for a while before saying lightly: "I can give you time, but Miss Ji... If you are really my granddaughter, I hope we can get along with each other in a different way. Once, there was only one Shan Ying under my knees. She is my heart flesh because she is the only bloodline of my Shan family, but if you are my granddaughter, I..."
"Old Shan, I'm sorry, I was injured in my head a few days ago. Maybe I really left some sequelae. Now my head hurts. Can you please help me call a doctor?" Ji Xinyao's face was stiff, her tone was plain, and she was still with distantness and politeness.
Old Dan was stunned. Seeing that her face was indeed a little pale, he turned around and went out to call the doctor.
*****************************************************************************************************
Half an hour later--
Gu Nanxi rushed to the hospital. As soon as he entered the ward, he saw Ji Xinyao sitting alone on the bed, curled up in a ball, looking out the window, motionless.
"Xin Yao?" He walked over, reached out and held her shoulder, his eyes full of concern: "I was listening to the report from the Audit Bureau, but I rushed over after receiving a call from the doctor. How are you doing? Does your head still hurt? Do I need to carry you to check again?"
Ji Xinyao's eyes were a little straightened until she felt his warm hand holding his arm and bringing her into her arms. She did not avoid, nor did she resist, nor did she have the intention of playing around on weekdays. She just leaned in his arms obediently and buried her face in his chest silently.
Seeing that she suddenly became obedient like a weak and helpless kitten, Gu Nanxi was stunned, lowered her head to look at her, and asked softly with a low smile: "What's wrong?"
As he said that, he raised his hand and was about to cover her shoulders, but his hand suddenly froze in the air. He lowered his eyes and looked at her who had not made any quiet sound in his arms, but felt that his chest was wet.
Ji Xinyao didn't say or move. She didn't want to disturb Gu Nanxi, but the doctor actually called him after she just said it was a headache and was examined. She didn't know what she should say or do now.
But when he approached him, he subconsciously wanted to lean in his arms, just hide in his arms, she wanted to be quiet...
"Xin Yao." Gu Nanxi's voice was gentle and patient. He put down his hand, covered her shoulders, and hugged her hard, as if giving her strength invisibly. He just called her name gently, but didn't say too much. He quietly hugged her and accompanied her.
It was not until she cried for a while and had almost vented that he held her shoulder and let her sit up. He looked at her quietly and said gently: "What happened? Tell me, don't worry me."
