Chapter 240: The Lost Past
"It was a noon two years later." Xiong Yaohua looked up and muttered, "I still remember that it was sunny that day. As usual, the young master said that he was going to play with Xiaoling next door. I was busy making lunch in the kitchen. I thought to myself, anyway, it was the next door, and it was not the first time for the young master to go, so I agreed without caring. Unexpectedly, when I went to the next door to find him after cooking, I heard that he had never come.
"It was really a bolt from the blue at that time, and I immediately panicked. After recovering, I quickly mobilized all the people I knew to find the young master, and also called the police comrades to help find him, but I didn't find his whereabouts for a long time. It's been more than 20 years!"
Xiong Yaohua burst into tears, and his face kept trembling slightly. He stretched out his trembling palm and said regretfully, "Five minutes... Less than five minutes before and after, and the person is gone. If I had put down the work in my hand, took him there and then came back, or sent him there after dinner, maybe this would not have happened.
"It's all my fault...my fault! I'm sorry for the benefactor, and I'm even more sorry for the young master. I failed the trust of the benefactor. I didn't take good care of his flesh and blood. I'm a sinner.
Xiong Yaohua lowered his head and hammered his chest. His face full of vicissitudes of life and wrinkles was wet with tears, and his heartbroken look was very sympathetic.
Instant mistakes and decisions were exchanged for lifelong regret. He spent the rest of his life looking for the young master.
Searching with hope again and again, and suffer the blow of disappointment again and again. He has been suffering such grief and regret for more than 20 years. No wonder he has become like an old man at such an age.
"Godfather, don't do this."
Yu Ruoling looked at Xiong Yaohua's regretful appearance, which made her heartbroken, and finally she couldn't help crying. She held Xiong Yaohua's thin palm tightly and comforted, "Godfather, it's been so many years. Don't blame yourself. Maybe the person you are looking for is doing well now, but you just don't know.
She couldn't help taking a look at Huang Fei. She knew it, but she couldn't say it. This feeling was really uncomfortable, as if she was holding a breath in her heart and didn't spit it out.
But for the sake of Huang Fei, she can't show it too clearly, so she can only continue to hold back the urgent mood in pain.
"No." Xiong Yaohua turned his head and looked at Yu Ruoling and said firmly, "If I haven't found the young master for a day, I can't be at ease for a day. If I can't find him in my life, I won't close my eyes even if I die.
"Godfather...Actually, I..."
"Cough..." When Yu Ruoling couldn't help but want to tell the truth, Huang Fei deliberately coughed a few times to remind her not to reveal her identity.
"Huang Fei, I..." Yu Ruoling stopped talking, gritted her teeth, and finally suppressed the impulse in her heart.
It's just that she really can't bear to see Xiong Yaohua's painful self-reproach. Now that this is the situation, she really doesn't understand why Huang Fei is so stubborn. Why can't she tell Xiong Yaohua the truth directly?
Doesn't he still trust Xiong Yaohua? He is his godfather, not an outsider.
Even if he is an outsider, he can touch many people with this uninterrupted efforts for many years alone. But why is Huang Fei so hard-hearted? Doesn't he have any pity and compassion?
This is not like the person you know at all. What's more, it's not a bad thing. Even if you admit it, there will be no risk. It's not only Xiong Yaohua's thoughts, but also you can find separated parents. Why not?
Huang Fei looked at Yu Ruoling's sad and confused pretty face. He just frowned and shook his head gently, and did not give up his original intention because of this.
Yu Ruoling had no choice but to bow her head and continue to comfort Xiong Yaohua. Maybe Huang Fei's matter can only be solved by himself. These should also be a big blow to him. Maybe he can't think about it for a while?
Huang Fei is not a stubborn stone. He also has feelings. But he is a rational person and will not let emotions dominate his decisions.
He had no impression of what happened at that time. He didn't know whether he really forgot or was deliberately erased. However, you can learn more about some things or solve the happy doubts.
He sympathizes with Xiong Yaohua's experience. It seems that he is also a conscientious and loyal servant.
However, the master trusted him to give the child to you, but he accidentally lost it.
Perhaps this kind of thing often happens to many parents. Who can think that there will be an accident in a few minutes?
However, the poor man must have something to hate.
He knew that the other party was just a child, but Xiong Yaohua still indulged him to go out alone. There are many dangerous possibilities in this, but he doesn't realize it. I have to say that this negligence is very serious.
He looked at Xiong Yaohua and sighed and said, "Hasn't you found a clue for so many years? Did you inform your benefactor afterwards?
"I was already confused at that time. How dare I tell my benefactor?" Xiong Yaohua said. Besides, after leaving Yanjing, I lost contact with my benefactor. I don't even know how he was doing at that time. I just want to find the young master with my own efforts, so that I can atone for my sins in the future. As for the clues, I was sure to find out some, but unfortunately I still couldn't see the young master.
"Oh!"
Huang Fei opened his eyes wide and was refreshed. He gradually moved forward and looked at Xiong Yaohua and asked, "What clue?"
"That's a year after the disappearance." Xiong Yaohua said. Once I went out for work, I accidentally found out that there might be someone I was looking for in an orphanage in Jinghai. Although I didn't know why it appeared in Jinghai at that time, I still went to the orphanage with a fluke. But I was still late. I heard from the dean that it had been taken away by a woman. I asked the dean to show me the picture of the child. It was really my lost young master.
"At that time, I was so excited that I finally found the young master who had been separated for a long time. Then I asked the woman's residence and name, and then I went straight to look for her, but I couldn't find the woman in the house, and I was disappointed again. But I didn't give up. I will quietly visit the villa in two or three days, hoping to meet that woman or see the young master. For a whole month, I was disappointed again. They never appeared.
"What's that woman's name?" Huang Fei asked.
"I still remember that her name is Bai Xixi."
"Bai Xixi?" Huang Fei frowned and whispered, suddenly excited and said secretly, "Xi Xi... Bai Yu! It's really her."
In this way, the lost child is indeed himself.
But how can a child run from Hangzhou to Jinghai Orphanage so far away?
What else is unknown in this?
Huang Fei believed that things were definitely not that simple. At that time, someone must have deliberately taken him from Hangzhou to Jinghai, then secretly transferred him out, and finally turned over to Bai Yu's men.
"Or is Bai Yu also one of the planners?" Huang Fei thought to himself.
Unfortunately, the memory before the age of 5 has completely disappeared, otherwise I can now remember who brought himself to Jinghai at that time.
Without this event, maybe there would be a completely different life now.
"What happened later?" Huang Fei continued to ask. How are the children's parents? In fact, this is what he wants to know, the root of the contradiction in his heart.
"Later, I kept asking my friends to help me inquire about the villa in Jinghai, and I returned to Hangzhou." Xiong Yaohua said. Originally, I wanted to stay in Jinghai by myself, but I was afraid that the benefactor would suddenly send someone to Hangzhou to find me. In this way, I stayed in Hangzhou for a few more years, but I still didn't wait for the news from my benefactor. I didn't dare to forget his advice before leaving, so I didn't dare to contact him. Gradually, I thought he had forgotten us, so I moved directly to Jinghai.
"So how are your benefactors doing now?" Huang Fei asked.
Xiong Yaohua said, "When it was just dark today, I went out to inquire and knew that my benefactor's family was safe. A lot of things should have happened over the years, otherwise he can't forget the agreement between us, let alone the young master.
"It seems that you must have been cheated by them." Hearing this, Huang Fei couldn't help sneering and said, "They don't deserve to be the parents of children at all, otherwise why don't they take the initiative to look for them for so many years?" It seems that they are so happy that they forget that they still have a son!"
At this time, his heart was in pain. I am not only an outcast, but also a forgotten outcast.
"Huang Fei, you are not allowed to say that!" Xiong Yaohua suddenly stared at Huang Fei with wide eyes and shouted in a loud voice, "I believe that the benefactor is definitely not that kind of person. Maybe they have any difficulties. Or they can't find it because they are blocked by something. I believe they will never forget their children.
Huang Fei still sneered, even a little desolate, and retorted, "You also said maybe, maybe. You are not even sure about yourself. How can you convince others? More than 20 years is not more than 20 hours. Why don't they care if they live well, and they don't even have time to send people to look for it? Isn't this forgetting? What is it?
"You..." Xiong Yaohua pointed to Huang Fei and wanted to stop talking, but just stared at him with wide eyes.
He found something strange. Huang Fei's reaction to this problem was very strong, not like the reaction that an outsider should have. On the contrary, it seems that the parties are dissatisfied and agitated.
Although he is not a man of great wisdom, he has lived for at least half his life, and the feelings of these people can still be seen.
"Is it... are you really the young master?" Xiong Yaohua was excited and surprised. The extinguished fire of hope ignited again, which should be the only way. Otherwise, why did he care so much about this matter and frequently refute it.
"So what?" Huang Fei replied coldly. I'm an orphan. I didn't have parents before, and I won't have them in the future.
