Chapter 146 The Scorching Sun (45 pages)
Gu Yao refused Qi Xuan's offer to escort him upstairs, and seeing the young man's worried expression, he forced a smile.
"Brother Xuan, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore."
Although Qi Xuan was worried, seeing that Gu Yao seemed to be doing relatively well, she decided to deal with the project first.
He wanted to resolve this matter quickly, so that Gu Yao and he could be free from any worries as soon as possible.
Instead of living in constant fear like we do now.
Watching the black car drive away, Gu Yao's smile gradually faded. Dragging his heavy steps, he turned and walked inside.
0529 looked at its host, who was dragging his heavy steps, and asked with some concern, "Host, are you really alright?"
This was the first time in three worlds that Gu Yao had bid farewell to his family.
Watching a loved one go from life to death must be a terrible feeling.
Gu Yao looked at the ball in front of him, trying hard to force a smile to comfort his stupid system.
But his pretense in front of Qi Xuan had exhausted his energy.
I simply don't have the energy right now.
0529 anxiously reached out her short little hand to help the boy, but her little hand was not even as thick as one of Gu Yao's fingers.
It's really not working.
When Gu Yao returned to his apartment, he didn't want to turn on the lights, didn't want to do anything, and just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
0529 looked at the boy who was curled up in a ball. The blanket was draped over the boy, but it couldn't even make a big bulge.
She's so thin it's heartbreaking.
Gu Yao had a dream, and he returned to his own world.
On that same day, his family was supposed to go on a trip to a rural farmhouse, a trip his parents had promised him.
Because he ranked first in his class.
He remembers being happy when he left home; his mother had made him sweet osmanthus cake and put it in his lunchbox.
The driver was driving in front, with his parents sitting on either side of him.
His mother opened a sweet osmanthus cake for him. The osmanthus cake was fragrant and sweet. He had just taken a bite with a smile when their car collided with a large truck.
In that instant, two warm bodies simultaneously shielded him.
The osmanthus cake in his hand fell to the ground, soaked in bright red blood.
Blood was everywhere, on his body and face, without stopping.
His clothes were soaked with blood, turning from warm to cold.
He was tightly protected by two people in the middle, and his father suffered the most damage, with shattered glass piercing every inch of his skin.
When the rescuers arrived at the scene, his seriously injured mother held him and kept comforting him, telling him not to be afraid. She supported the young boy and carried him out.
He turned to look at his mother, whose face was streaked with blood, it was hard to tell whether it was his or his father's.
But there was a look of joy in those eyes, as if they had accomplished something important.
But the burst of vitality that led her to send her child away in that instant seemed to drain all of the mother's life force.
She crumbled rapidly the moment her child was taken in by rescuers.
Gu Yao emerged from the dark and oppressive space and saw the bright sunlight.
Outside the cramped carriage, the sun shone brightly, its rays perfectly bright.
That was the most dazzling sunlight he had ever seen in his life.
It actually gave him a burning pain.
But this was a time that my father had carefully chosen, a day with beautiful weather.
They were supposed to be enjoying themselves at the agritourism resort.
But where are they now?
Gu Yao sat blankly to one side. Despite being well protected, he only suffered minor cuts from a few shards of glass.
He watched as rescuers carried out two bodies.
Bloody.
Lifeless.
How did that happen?
Young Gu Yao did not understand.
They were just chatting and laughing with their parents a moment ago, so why are they lying down now?
He sat on the ground, watching people in white clothes lift his parents into the ambulance.
But how can a corpse become a living person again?
On that very day, Gu Yao became an orphan.
Those relatives coveted and divided up the Gu family's property, but none of them were willing to support Gu Yao.
Gu Yao watched as people wearing human skin revealed their disgusting inner selves, arguing heatedly over their inheritance at their parents' funeral, yet not a single one of them was willing to take on a burden.
Seeing the chaotic scene, the clan chief tapped the floor twice with his cane and finally decided that the person who received the most money would raise Gu Yao.
Gu Yao was eventually fostered at his uncle's house.
His aunt found fault with him in every way. Although he wasn't starving, he was at least given food, drink, and a place to stay.
Gu Yao didn't like them either.
He clearly received the most of his parents' money and improved his life, but he acted as if he had gotten the better deal.
From a young age, they instilled in him the idea that he was a burden, and that they had kindly taken him in.
They really treated him like a child and fooled him.
Later, when Gu Yao grew up, they realized they couldn't fool him anymore.
And gradually they stopped caring about people.
When Gu Yao was eighteen, he moved his household registration out, obtaining a separate household registration and severing all ties.
He didn't care too much, since he didn't think much of those people anyway.
It's absolutely disgusting.
Gu Yao had always been alone since he was a child, and he knew that only he could rely on himself.
His goal since childhood has been solely to avenge his parents.
The person who bought his father's hard work with a single card at his parents' funeral.
That condescending face, that smug look in his eyes as he gazed at his parents' gravestones.
Gu Yao remembers everything.
Two small boxes, made of the same bluestone slabs.
It overlaps with today's memories.
Yes, I've always been alone, so how could I possibly have the idea of relying on others?
That's absolutely absurd.
Gu Yao felt a slight pain in his head.
I woke up groggily to find myself in complete darkness.
Turn on the bedside nightlight; its dim yellow light casts a warm glow.
Gu Yao looked on, his face somewhat dazed.
It's been so long since I've had such a complete recollection of these things.
Those people's disgusting faces are as repulsive as ever.
Qi Xuan still hasn't returned.
