First-Class Lawyer - Chapter 133

[Chapter 131 Eves (4)]
With a simple sentence, Gu Yan knew who the couple was.
The vague conjecture that popped up in my mind just now also came true.
Before that, he actually imagined how he would meet Yan Suizhi’s parents…
They should return to Helan Star in a shuttle, on a calm and ordinary morning or afternoon, perhaps a bright sunny day, Perhaps in the patter of uninterrupted rain, they would walk up the stairs through the cemetery’s lush holly and goldenrod pines, stopping at some double headstone to place a ready bouquet of white Sabbaths. Under the introduction of Yan Suizhi, he would say hello to the elder resting under the tombstone, maybe thank him or make a promise, but it won’t take up too much time. Because Yan Suizhi should have a lot to talk to his parents, and he will always be by his side.
He never thought that the first time he met Yan Suizhi’s parents would be this way.
They stood in front of him and Yan Suizhi, one had eyebrows and eyes similar to Yan Suizhi’s when they laughed, and the other had the same calm and graceful manner as Yan Suizhi in their gestures.
It was obvious in a few moments that they were good people, as gentle and funny as he thought.
Just a lot younger than he thought.
At the moment when this idea appeared, Gu Yancai suddenly realized that being close at hand and being within reach is just a matter of appearance, and this step is separated by a long, very long time.
Before that, the couple should have been in their prime.
If they really stood here and looked at Yan Suizhi like this, would they be glad that the 15-year-old lazy boy had grown up, or would they feel bad for the 28 years he has traveled alone. Or he might wonder why he changed his appearance, why the little mole at the corner of his eye that was inherited from his mother disappeared, why he was wearing someone else’s name, and what happened…
Gu Yan subconsciously looked at Yan Suizhi, but he was still leaning against him. In the seat, glass in hand, resting on lap. He didn’t lean forward, didn’t stand up, and the slightest accident had disappeared, and he looked unusually calm.
He has lived alone for so long, and so many things have happened this year. When he sees his parents, he should have a lot to say, but this is not in front of the tomb, so he didn’t speak, just watched quietly.
Then… when the couple were smiling, he blinked slightly and smiled at them.
No sadness, no sadness.
At least at this moment, when he and his parents looked at each other, there was no such thing in his eyes.
It was as if… he was just sitting in the garden of the old house leaning against Gu Yan, basking in the sun lazily like countless vacation afternoons many years ago. Then he raised his eyes inadvertently, and found that his parents were standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor looking at him, and he was squinted by the sun, and returned a faint smile.
Relaxed and without edges.
…
Joe sat on the sofa with his hands on his knees, his posture was stiff, as if he had been stuck for a moment and never recovered.
It wasn’t until this video was played again, the screen went black, and the whole living room went dark, that he suddenly returned to his senses.
“I…” Qiao opened his mouth and said a word, then shook his head and changed his words: “No, Dean, what do you mean by letting Gu Yan see the couple just now? They are yours…” The
last few words , his voice was suddenly soft, as if he was a little afraid to say it.
Yan Suizhi seemed to be still a little dazed, and after a while, he turned to look at Qiao.
Young Master Qiao kept his body straight, and inexplicably cowarded: “What… it doesn’t matter if it’s inconvenient to say.”
Yan Suizhi was made to laugh by Qiao’s tone, or maybe it was the smile he showed to the couple just now. The meaning has not been put away. He turned the glass in his hand and asked Joe, “Is what you said just now false?”
Joe actually didn’t understand what he meant by asking this, but it was as if he had been ordered to take a law school elective course. As if facing each other, he raised two fingers and said earnestly, “No, it’s all true.”
“Are there any concealments and reservations?” Yan Suizhi asked again.
Young Master Qiao continued to raise his finger: “What did you think of and say, you didn’t hide it on purpose, if you are too long-winded, I can talk about it for a day and a night.”
“Will you tell the people who shouldn’t say what you heard?”
“Of course not, my mouth is tight.”
Yan Suizhi’s expression did not change, she nodded: “I see.”
Qiao asked tentatively, “So?”
Yan Suizhi said, “So, that’s mine. Parents.”
Joe opened his mouth, “Ah”.
In fact, this conjecture was already in his mind just now, but when Yan Suizhi really said it, he was still… shocked.
“But… that’s not right…” Qiao tried to recall the faces of the couple in her mind, recalled the details of the facial features one by one, and then fixed her eyes on Yan Suizhi’s face, and read the details of the facial features one by one…
No real similarity was found.
“You don’t look alike!” said Joe.
After he finished speaking, he suddenly recovered from Gu Yan’s eyes at the fool, and slapped himself on the forehead, “Oh – yes, the dean is now an intern, look at my pig brain, I It’s just that I don’t know how to react.”
He rubbed his forehead and was stunned: “It’s still not right… That couple’s surname is Lin, how could they be your parents?”
He might really be I was shocked by this sudden situation, and I couldn’t find the tune when speaking. After he finished speaking, he found that his words were a bit awkward, and corrected him: “I mean, Dean, your surname is Yan. I remember that the old fox called him Mr. Lin. Could it be that I remembered it wrongly?”
Qiao tried hard to recall. , not only is the gentleman not named Yan, but also the lady is not named Yan.
“I remember correctly.” Yan Suizhi said.
When he talked about this matter, his expression became very gentle, and there was a little helplessness. He didn’t actually intend to explain, but when he turned around and saw Gu Yan, he couldn’t help but add: “My father’s surname is Lin, and my mother’s surname is Lu. The initials are the same, so they prefer to use L when signing outside, which means either is fine. Maybe it’s because of similarities. My family doesn’t really care about surnames or inheritance, so before I was born, they thought it was okay to give them any surname. In other words, they never decided what my surname was. My mother’s character Compare—”
He smiled and thought about a word, “it’s lively, I don’t like playing cards according to common sense. She later came up with an idea, saying who’s hand will be the first to hold my hand after I’m born. , you can take whatever surname you want.”
“It’s funny, isn’t it?” Yan Suizhi said.
Gu Yan shook his head. To be honest, judging from Yan Sui’s personality, it’s not so surprising that his family came up with such an idea.
Although the surname was discussed before Yan Suizhi was born, he did not miss those details. Because the elders in the family have the habit of taking family images, I just recorded them.
Yan Suizhi had seen that video more than once.
The video was filmed on a winter night one year before his birth, not in the old house, but in the home of Yan Suizhi’s grandfather and grandmother on a beautiful island in the east of Helan Star.
Yan Suizhi remembered the beginning of the video, her mother was sitting on the thick and clean carpet in the living room, watching a movie with a cat in her arms. She used her husband’s legs as a backrest, and her long curly hair fell down, looking laid-back and homey.
Her father patted the top of her head and said half-truth: “Miss Lu, my leg is numb.”
She smiled and beat her hands with her back a few times, then suddenly remembered something, turned her head to rest on her husband’s knee Ask: “I can’t help thinking of one thing recently.”
“What?”
“We talked about it before, what is the name of having a child.” Miss Lu stroked her cat and said seriously, “I think it will be soon.”
Mr. Lin’s expression was blank for a moment: “What do you think?”
“Intuition.”
Miss Lu was amused by his expression, and laughed on his knees for a long time before raising her head again: “I just thought about it. It’s a great idea, no matter whether it’s a boy or a girl, when he is born, he will be named after whoever is crying.”
Mr. Lin: “Then we may have to choose an obstetrician with a good surname first.”
Miss Lu: ” …”
Seeing his wife’s expression, Mr. Lin also laughed.
“Then it’s still after returning home… Whose hand does he take first?” Miss Lu said.
“That’s okay.” Mr. Lin boasted, “It’s a good idea.”
With such an idea, Miss Lu couldn’t sit still. She took the cat and pulled the slippers to the kitchen, and told her father, who was boiling milk, and was praised again. Then he went to the upstairs room and told his mother who was recuperating.
Not long after that, the idea was approved by Mr. Lin’s father again.
So after Yan Suizhi was born, not only his parents, but also his grandparents came to join in the fun with the thought of teasing him.
Surrounded by the crib were his mother who made him laugh, his father who took a video of him, his grandmother who was in a wheelchair because of his health, his grandfather who was pushing a wheelchair, and his grandfather who pretended to be calm but couldn’t stop laughing.
“So who did you catch?” Gu Yan asked.
“Grandmother.” Yan Suizhi smiled. “She didn’t put her hand in front of me at the time, she was just helping me with the quilt, so she was stunned for a while.”
His grandmother was affected by a war, It happened to be late in her pregnancy. After that, she endured unimaginable torture before giving birth to the child. However, the influence of the war did not completely disappear, which led to some problems with Yan Suizhi’s mother and Yan Suizhi’s genes. She was always apologetic about it, for many, many years.
Yan Suizhi’s parents have always hoped that she could let go and not care about this matter.
After all, without the grandmother’s perseverance, there would be no Yan Suizhi’s mother, Yan Suizhi’s father would not have met his beloved wife, and naturally there would be no Yan Suizhi.
“In the second year of my birth, my grandmother passed away, and the only person who opposed it passed away. The remaining elders unanimously decided that I should take her surname.” Yan Suizhi paused and said, “In addition, my parents have never wanted too much Limiting my life, at least until I am an adult, to be free to decide what I want to do and what kind of life I want to live, free from their business, partner or other influences, to be able to decide more purely on my own Lu. It’s different from their surname, and in a sense, it can just achieve this purpose.”
Qiao listened with some emotion.
At least as far as they know, the couple did what they said and really protected the child well. So much so that he never knew that the unknown and undisturbed person they had been curious about for a long time was actually Yan Suizhi.
He is very envious, envious of such a gentle family and such gentle elders.
But it is precisely because he has seen such a gentle person that he has worked hard to maintain a sincere heart in various family disputes and intrigues for decades.
