Chapter 43: Qiao Wangchuan's Secret

When Qiao Wangchuan was wearing a shirt and casual suit, and wearing a dark red silk scarf to pick up Su Yutan, Su Yutan was looking at Chen Ruoshui.
Because Chen Ruoshui actually printed a few expression packs such as "Su Yutan Town House" and "Su Yutan Exorcising Evil" and posted them on the portals of her house to accompany the master of the door god.
After posting, she also specially made a video and sent it to Su Yutan.
Su Yutan saw that after washing and changing her clothes, she was half annoyed.
"Tear it off immediately, or I will kill you when I go back!" Su Yutan threatened Chen Ruoshui.
Chen Ruoshui was paralyzed on the sofa, and waved his hands weakly: "I don't bother you, my mother almost strangled me just now. She said that I would offend both the door and you. Now, except the one on the door of my room Zhang was struggling to protect me, and everything else was torn by my mother. "
Su Yutan hung up the phone and angrily followed Qiao Wangchuan.
When can I turn this expression pack over?
Qiao Wangchuan looked at Milo, who was behind Su Yutan, and asked her, "Does Milo go with me?"
Su Yutan said with a smile: "Yeah! In case I'm drunk, Milo can carry me back. Right?"
Qiao Wangchuan laughed: "In fact, I can carry yours."
Su Yutan thought: I don't want to be carried by you! She said with a smile: "When I'm drunk, maybe you're too drunk. How can you remember me?"
"You drink so well?"
"Not good or bad. The key is that I have always been more restrained in drinking."
The room that Qiao Wangchuan lived in was 31 Lemon Bridge, a one-bedroom and one-room suite.
The living room of the suite is decorated with window grilles, lanterns, and flowers, and the red color of the room is very festive.
Holographic TV is playing the Spring Festival Gala. Those not-so-bright-looking but lively programs brought out a strong Chinese New Year atmosphere, and Su Yutan suddenly felt the New Year.
"The windows and lanterns were prepared by my grandparents and kept in the suitcase before." Qiao Wangchuan explained casually and took out a carton and handed it to Su Yutan. "New Year's Eve gift. I personally selected, Hope you like it."
"Are there any gifts?" Su Yutan was a little surprised. He took the carton and opened it. It was a dark red scarf similar to the scarf on Qiao Wangchuan's neck.
"My grandmother said: When the New Year, if you don't want to wear red clothes, you have to wear a red scarf, so that's good." Qiao Wangchuan said with a smile.
Su Yutan hung the silk scarf around her neck, a little moved, and a little guilty: "I didn't prepare a gift for you ..."
"If you want, I would like to ask you to help me draw a portrait and hang it in my new home for decoration."
"Portrait?" Su Yutan hesitated, and shook his head. "My style is not suitable for portraits. May I help you take a set of photos? I brought a 2D camera, and the 2D photos taken are more suitable. Hang up to decorate your home. "
"That's okay," Qiao Wangchuan said easily. "You're more professional than me in this area. I listen to you."
Su Yutan carefully looked up and down Qiao Wangchuan again, and the more she thought, the more she thought of her: "Your face is thinner, the contours of your face are very clear and very three-dimensional, and you should be very photogenic. The figure is also good, thin and Not weak ... a good candidate for a model. Ah, I'm looking forward to it! "
Qiao Wangchuan laughed: "I can't wait to see it until dawn. Now, let's eat New Year's Eve!"
He walked to the dining table and pulled her out of the chair.
Su Yutan could only put down his expectations temporarily and sit down at the table.
Qiao Wangchuan sat down opposite her and pointed to the dishes and wine on the table: "This is the takeaway I ordered at the hotel's 24-hour restaurant, don't let it go. I have prepared a little for white wine, red wine, champagne, beer, you think What kind of wine do you drink? "
"It's okay." In this regard, Su Yutan did not pick.
"Then drink the wine bar!"
The two were chatting casually while eating.
After almost eating, they moved from the table to the sofa.
Qiao Wangchuan proposed playing cards to pass the time.
Su Yutan, however, felt that playing cards with a scientifically gifted A + person was a humiliation, and he resolutely quit. In the end, they discussed the results: playing turtles.
This is a kind of poker game that is completely skillless and wins or loses.
The specific gameplay is: first draw a card from a deck of cards and set it aside as a turtle card; the remaining 53 cards are divided into two and each person takes one; the cards in the hand can make all of a pair Throw it out, then draw each other's cards in the other's hand, and throw them out in pairs. In the end, whoever keeps the same card as the Turtle has the loser.
The loser took a paper ball from the box and accepted the punishment written on the paper ball.
These punishment items are very mild, just like "tell a joke", "speak a tongue twister," "sing a song," "dance a dance," "make a minute of tablet support," and so on.
After playing a few rounds, Su Yutan was punished for "singing a song."
She thought about it and sang a song she prayed very much, "Praying": "Put a river lantern on the water, put your hands together in your heart ..."
As soon as she sang an opening, the smile on Qiao Wangchuan's face disappeared quickly, and she looked at her timidly, as if split by a thunder.
Su Yutan immediately stopped singing and asked a little strangely, "What happened to you?"
Qiao Wangchuan's eye circles were a little red, and he said to Su Yutan, "Sing it! I'll tell you when you're done singing."
Su Yutan could only suppress the doubts in his heart and finished the song.
Qiao Wangchuan listened to her singing the song exceptionally quietly, and even heard tears.
Of course, Su Yutan doesn't arrogantly believe that this is because she sings too well, and can only guess that this old song nearly 30 years ago has any special relationship with Qiao Wangchuan.
"This is my mother's song. To be precise: this is the song my mother wrote to me." After Su Yutan finished singing, Qiao Wangchuan said to her.
Su Yutan was very, very surprised.
After hearing Jiang Miaosong singing the song at the Anna Music Bar that day, she asked Mia to help her buy the original version of the song.
Later, the more she listened to and liked the song, she followed her creators.
She did not know that the songwriter and singer Joanna of this song was not an unknown niche singer, but a professional 30 years ago.
Joanna made her debut through the draft at the age of nineteen, and her career has steadily increased since then.
But when she was twenty-nine years old, she suddenly disappeared from the music scene after a music award ceremony.
In this regard, her agency only announced: Joanna temporarily bid farewell to the music scene due to personal reasons, and the return period is uncertain.
Later, there was a gossip that said eloquently: Joanna has disappeared, no one will be born, no corpse will be seen dead.
Although this news has never been officially confirmed, there are various signs that this is likely to be the truth.
This "Pray" is the last song released publicly before Joanna disappeared.
Now Qiao Wangchuan said that this song was written to him by his mother, and then think about how he heard the song, think about how he never mentioned his mother ... So, is Joanna really missing?
As if she heard the question in her mind, Qiao Wangchuan said, "That little news is true. My mother has been missing for almost 29 years."
He wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, shaking the wine glass in his hand, and the deep sadness seemed to freeze on his face: "Now, I don't even know if she is still alive ..."
Su Yutan immediately remembered what Qiao Wangchuan said when she was threatened by a trafficker when Qiao Wangchuan came to protect her.
At the time, he said: He didn't want the little pigeon to see her tombstone in the future, or worse, she didn't even have the tombstone, and she was living there somehow. He said: That will make the little pigeon forever care for her, but never find the answer.
He also said: That situation is tortured, and he doesn't want the young pigeons to be tortured like that.
When she heard these words, she didn't think much about it, but thought it was a normal guess.
Now hearing this story, and thinking back to what he said then, I realized that what he said at that time was not speculation, but a kind of deep-seated pain.
This pain has been deposited on him for too long and too long before he will have the kind of sadness that is almost solidified.
Qiao Wangchuan sipped the red wine in the glass shallowly, and slowly talked about his life.
His father's name was Alan Miller and he was a geneticist.
When Joanna was 25 years old, she secretly married Miller. Four years later, they decided to have a child in secret.
But Qiao Wangchuan was still in the fertility trough of the reproductive service center, and when she was just a 10-week-old fetus, Joanna disappeared after the music award ceremony.
After the ceremony that night, the agent and assistant watched Joanna's private flying saucer take off. After that, the flying saucer and Joanna never appeared again.
After confirming that Joanna was missing, Joe's family and the agency secretly called the police.
The police searched hard, but could not find any clues.
At the beginning, the agency kept a secret from Joanna's disappearance.
Later, I couldn't hide it, the agency released an announcement that Joanna was saying goodbye to the song scene temporarily, hoping to find Joanna and get her back to the song scene.
When Qiao Wangchuan came out of the nursery trough, the police had abandoned the search and listed Joanna's disappearance as a pending case.
They speculated that Joanna was abducted by traffickers in a planned and premeditated manner. I don't know where they have been sold. The possibility of being recovered is very small.
Unwilling to give up, Miller quit his job and entrusted Qiao Wangchuan to his mother-in-law, Lolissa and his eldest brother, Joe Evan, and embarked on a long journey to find Joanna with his father-in-law, Joe Harry.
In consideration of the child's emotions and growth, Miller and the Qiao family concealed Qiao Wangchuan's true life, named him Qiao Nanfeng, and let him grow up as Qiao Dongfeng's brother.
After Qiao Wangchuan turned 18, he realized that "parents" were actually aunts, and "uncles" and missing "aunts" were his biological parents.
When he knew the truth, Qiao Wangchuan was greatly stimulated. Regardless of dissuasion, he insisted on giving up everything and looking for his mother with his father and grandfather.
He has knowledge and technology, and hates those criminals. In the process of looking for his mother, he became a volunteer informant of the police, which is a slight effort to combat crime.
But after all, he was no match for the insidious and cunning of the professional criminals, and soon he got into the trap and fell into the hands of a gangster in the Mistfield.
The Misty Stars is a San Regal Zone, where the poorest and most criminal criminals in the universe are gathered. Heinous crimes of all kinds occur there numerous times a day.
After the gang captured Qiao Wangchuan, he planned to kill him in public and kill the cockroaches and monkeys.
But in order to find Joanna's whereabouts, Miller and Joe Halley have been mingling in the misty star field for many years. After all, they have accumulated a little network of contacts and asked for a relationship.
Later, the Qiao family lost their home and borrowed a large amount of foreign debt, raised a high ransom, and redeemed Qiao Wangchuan, who had been tortured and bruised.
After bringing Qiao Wangchuan back to earth, Miller renamed his son Qiao Wangchuan.
Wangchuan River is Huangquan, the dividing line between the earth and the land in the legend.
Miller gave his son the name to remind him that once he crossed the Huangquan and entered the local government, he would never return to earth.
For a few years after that, the Joe family stayed on the earth and did not seek Joanna again.
Qiao Wangchuan also felt pained, gave up his original intentions, and began to focus on what he was good at--doing research.
Later, Qiao Wangchuan and his friend started Molecular Cloud.
When the molecular cloud company made money, he repaid his family's foreign debt and bought a bigger house for his grandparents and aunts.
Two years ago, Qiao Wangchuan's economy was completely affluent.
Miller took the mercenary hired with Joe Wang's money, changed his status, and set off on the journey to find Joanna again.
Qiao Wangchuan took a shallow sip of wine and said with a mockery, "You may not know how regretful I was when I thought I was being tortured. When I knew what it cost my family to save me How shameful I am. "
He reached out a finger and made a circle towards his neck and chest: "Under my collar and clothes, there are all kinds of scars left when I was tortured by the gangster.
"I keep these scars, just to remind myself at all times: to be calm when things go wrong, to have a strategy to solve the problem, and we can no longer act arrogantly. Because it is not good for solving the problem, it is easy to do bad things. Affect your loved ones. "
At the end of his narrative, New Year's bells also sounded on the holographic television.
Qiao Wangchuan took a deep breath and spit it out heavily, then raised his glass to Su Yutan with a smile: "Good New Year!"
Su Yutan raised his glass and touched him lightly, also said, "Good New Year!"
Hope that unhappy things are left in the old years.
Hope that the new year will be a good year and a happy year.
