C702 He Wanted to Say Something but Hesitated

2Yun Xiao wanted to say something but hesitated.

I said, "What's the matter?"

"I woke up early this morning to take care of some matters at Publishing Station. After I was done, I directly came to the company. It was only around 6 o'clock and there was no one in the yard. When I came in, I saw Boss Sun's car parked at the side of the road outside the gate, and then I saw Boss Sun's driver carrying a plastic bucket for washing cars out. The bucket is empty. When I went upstairs, I saw that the stairs were filled with water. " Clouds said.

"Oh." My heart jumped.

"I was worried that it would freeze and slip. I wanted to find some sand to fill up that place, but I was too busy to remember." Clouds said.

"Yun, did you tell this to Boss Qiu?" "No," I said.

"Yes."

"How did she react?"

"She was just reprimanded by Chief Editor, so she didn't say anything after listening to what I said." Clouds said.

"Where is she now?" "No," I said.

"At the office, I went out and bought her a box of food. She never ate it. I'm afraid it's bright, so I put it on the radiator. " Clouds said.

When I heard that, I stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."

"Yes." Clouds called after me.

I went to Qiu Tong's office and pushed open the door. She was standing with her back to the door, looking out the window.

Hearing the noise, she turned around and looked at me.

I looked at the box of food on the radiator and said, "You haven't eaten?"

"I'm not hungry!" Qiu Tong said.

"Even if you're not hungry, you still have to eat!" I said, "How can we not eat?"

"You came to persuade me to eat?" Qiu Tong looked at me.

I exhaled. "The clouds told me." The ice on the stairs was man-made. "Someone knew about the city's secretary's inspection trip today and had purposely tampered with the area ahead of time."

"Is this what you told me?" Qiu Tong said.

"I think you understand!" "No," I said.

"I don't understand, and I don't want to understand." Qiu Tong's voice sounded very heavy, "People are really tired when they're alive. Why are people so tired when they're still alive? Tired from work, tired from life, tired from being a leader and tired from being a subordinate. "Why are you so tired?"

Qiu Tong sat on the sofa with her hands on her forehead and sighed. She looked tired.

I didn't say anything. I took the box of food and placed it on the coffee table in front of her. I opened it and gently turned around to leave. Qiu Tong is in a bad mood and I don't want to disturb her.

"Yi Ke —" I had just taken a few steps when I heard Qiu Tong calling for me. I stopped and turned around.

"Don't rush off, I want to talk to you." Qiu Tong pointed at the sofa opposite hers.

I went back and sat down and looked at Qiu Tong.

"I want to ask you something." Qiu Tong looked at me seriously.

"Go ahead." Somehow, I couldn't meet Qiu Tong's eyes.

"You must tell me the truth!" Qiu Tong said.

"Yes." I nodded. "Ask."

Qiu Tong lowered her head in silence for a while, as though she was hesitating. Then, she suddenly raised her head and looked at me with bright eyes. "Yi Ke, tell me, whose child is Xiao Xue?"

I was startled.

It was only then that I realized that Qiu Tong's depressed mood earlier wasn't entirely due to this morning's incident. She was thinking about something else.

I looked at Qiu Tong and said, "Isn't Xiaoxue being adopted by you now? Aren't you her mother? "

"Did you really not understand me, or did you pretend that you did not understand me?" Qiu Tong looked straight at me. "Let me ask you again, whose child is Xiao Xue?"

I said, "Why me?"

I don't know why Qiu Tong suddenly asked about this.

"I can say I'm asking you, or I can say I'm asking you for confirmation. "Why would I want to talk to you? You wouldn't tell me if I didn't give you a comprehensive and sufficient reason, would you?" Qiu Tong looked at me.

I didn't say anything. I didn't know how to answer Qiu Tong.

"First of all, Lee Shun is back from Japan. "You know about this, but you didn't say anything about it. How did I know? It's because Lee Shun went to kindergarten to see Xiao Xue." Qiu Tong continued.

When I heard that Lee Shun went to see Snowy again, he didn't notify me this time.

"If it wasn't for Snowy saying that she went home to eat Agendas, if I didn't ask her who took her, if I didn't solemnly warn her not to lie to good kids, if Snowy didn't honestly tell me that Lee Shun took her, I might not have thought of asking her about those things."

Qiu Tong continued, "Last night, I asked all of them about you taking her out to play a few times. Including that time when she went to discover the kingdom, including catching crabs on the island, and the people involved, including Lee Shun and some of her actions and words. I asked Snowy about the detailed process. "

When I heard this, Snowy confessed. She didn't keep her promise with Lee Shun.

Since Snowy is frank and open-minded, then should I follow her example?

I said, "What do you feel?"

Qiu Tong said, "I feel something unusual. Also, I heard from Auntie who brought Snowy away that day. At the kindergarten, Lee Shun went to look at Snowy, who was standing not far away. Suddenly, she saw Lee Shun hugging Snowy tightly and couldn't help but say: "Poor child, daddy is sorry for you. You are daddy's only bone and blood in the world."

What did that mean? What did it mean? In short, these things that happened, I can't help but think back to Lee Shun's previous indifference towards Snowy. Such a big turn of events couldn't help but make me ponder deeply.

Also, Lee Shun's parents changed their attitude towards me when I adopted Snowy in my office the other day. What does this mean? What happened in this short period of time? What had changed them so drastically? Just because of what you said? Do you think your words have that much power to them? "

I looked at Qiu Tong in a daze.

Qiu Tong continued, "You think I'm a brainless person? Do you think I wouldn't think and ponder about these details and changes? Although I felt that I had an incredible premonition, the truth was still the truth. There were some things that I couldn't help but think about.

In most of the times Lee Shun and Snowy came into contact, you acted as a middleman. I don't think you said you were unaware? I even have enough intuition to suspect that you already know of the relationship between Snowy and Lee Shun, but you just didn't tell me. "

Qiu Tong's voice wasn't loud, but her expression was very focused on me, as if she was trying to read something from my expression.

I looked straight at Qiu Tong, hesitating whether I should tell her or not. If I tell her, then I would be disobeying Lee Shun's rules. But I really didn't want to lie to Qiu Tong anymore. I had lied to her enough, and every lie, every lie, was undoubtedly an unspeakable wound to Qiu Tong, a whip to my soul.

"Yi Ke, I want to hear the truth. I don't want to think you're a good liar. " Qiu Tong pursed her lips and looked at me as if she could see through my thoughts.

Seeing Qiu Tong's clear eyes, I finally made a decision. I nodded, looked at Qiu Tong, and slowly said, "Yes." That's right, Xiao Xue is indeed Lee Shun's biological daughter. "

"Ah —" Qiu Tong gave a little gasp. Although she had already prepared herself mentally, she was still shocked by my words. Her expression was one of shock.

"Is this true?" "So that's how it is …" Qiu Tong mumbled to herself with an expression of disbelief. "Is that even possible?" This... Was this a fantasy story? This... It was truly unimaginable. This... What a coincidence. "

"Yes, although this sounds very strange, it is very unbelievable, very unimaginable, very coincidental. However, this is indeed true. The facts cannot be changed. " I looked at Qiu Tong and said, "Lee Shun once went to the hospital to do DNA testing with the chewing gum Xiaoxue spat out. The results showed that Xiaoxue was his biological daughter."2

Qiu Tong's expression was a little confused and shocked as she muttered: "Lee Shun's biological daughter... Lee Shun... He was married. That... What about Snowy's mother? Why is Snowy an outcast again? "

Qiu Tong looked at me with her eyes wide open.

"Qiu Tong, I'll tell you everything I know about Xiao Xue." "No," I said.

Qiu Tong nodded.

Thus, I told all of Snowy's background to Qiu Tong from the beginning to the end. From Lee Shun knowing that the girl sitting on the stage to the day Snowy was abandoned, to how Snowy was picked up from a trash bin by a wandering old man and met Qiu Tong and me at Qingdao, from Lee Shun's parents acting in a forceful manner, to Lee Shun searching for his child crazily, only to end up leaving Japan in anger.

Qiu Tong listened attentively, her eyes sometimes filled with astonishment, sometimes with doubt, sometimes with tears, and then with helplessness and sadness.

When I finished, Qiu Tong covered her face with her hands and lowered her head.

After a while I heard her voice: "A ruthless society, a cruel reality, a cruel heart, the soul of sin. Poor child, suffering child, innocent child, lucky child. "

Qiu Tong's voice was choked with sobs, still trembling.

After a moment, Qiu Tong raised her head and looked at me. "I have found the answer to all of Snowy's questions from before. Yi Ke, thank you. Previously, you didn't tell me anything about Snowy, but I guess Lee Shun told you not to. He doesn't want me to know about his glorious past. "

"Actually, you are very sharp. Even if I didn't say anything, you would have already guessed it. Snowy was unfortunate, but she was also fortunate. At least, she had a mother who doted on her, and a father of her own. Her mother now loves her even more than her own mother, and she is very lucky. "

"Today, you let me confirm my guess. So you actually hid such a huge matter from me. If I didn't force you today, would you never take the initiative to tell me? "

"I don't know. I don't really want to, but I can't help it. "

"There's no other way. Yi Ke, do you still have a lot of things that you can't help hiding or deceiving me? "

I looked at Qiu Tong and said nothing.

"Sometimes, being unable to do so is a good reason, but most of the time, being unable to do so is just an excuse to deceive oneself and others." Qiu Tong said, "You can deceive the whole world around you, but the only thing you cannot deceive is your own heart."

I suddenly remembered the Floating Dream in the air, and the words in the virtual space.

"Qiu Tong, don't force me. I don't want to live in a mask either. " I said it with difficulty.

Qiu Tong immediately shut her mouth and said softly, "I'm sorry."

I looked out the window at the heavy snow that was silently flying under the hazy sky and said, "Qiu Tong, remember what I said: One day, I will restore my true self in front of everyone! A complete and true self! "
