Chapter 382 My Sadness is Hard to Control
Gu Nankai thought about it many times but found that he couldn't find any fault in her words. After a moment of silence, he said solemnly: "Qingqing, I don't care what you did before, but I can guarantee that you won't have to go through that in the future. I will find you a job and let you return to a normal life. You don't have to be afraid of what's true or false. Even if you are not my sister, if the police find out that you were coerced, they will help you in this way."
Zhang Qingqing seemed to be overwhelmed by Gu Nankai's words and tears kept falling silently. She lowered her head and dared not look into Gu Nankai's eyes. It was not until a long time after Gu Nankai finished speaking that she slowly raised her head, staring at Gu Nankai with tearful eyes, and asked in a choked voice: "Then I...what happened to me in the past that I lost my memory? Why did I lose my memory?"
When she asked this question, Gu Nankai's face changed slightly. He looked at Zhang Qingqing hesitantly, and after a while he just shook his head: "I don't know, things were very complicated back then, but I will find out clearly, don't worry, I will give you an explanation."
A trace of regret flashed across Zhang Qingqing's face, but she nodded. However, she soon asked again: "Is it because of you, Brother Nan Kai?"
Gu Nankai's heart moved, and he frowned and asked her: "Why do you ask that?"
Zhang Qingqing shrank her neck as if she was a little scared, but still said stammeringly: "Sometimes, I dream that there is a man standing in front of me. I beg him to save me, but he always shakes his head."
Although Zhang Qingqing's eyes were filled with tears, she looked at Gu Nankai as if examining him, and her words successfully changed Gu Nankai's expression several times.
"Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation about your amnesia."
Gu Nankai didn't say anything else, but just gave her such a promise. Zhang Qingqing nodded blankly and murmured, "If it has anything to do with you, it doesn't matter. Our mothers are siblings. I won't blame you."
Gu Nankai choked again, not knowing what to say, and just nodded heavily.
Looking at his expression, Zhang Qingqing seemed to see something. She suddenly stood up and walked to Gu Nankai's side, staring at him and asked, "Is it really related to you? Is it because of you that I disappeared? Is it because of you that I lost my memory?"
Gu Nankai didn't know how to answer. He had no idea why Zhang Qingqing suddenly got together with Zhao Zhengrong. Should he tell Zhang Qingqing now? We almost got along well and lived together back then, and just when I was about to agree to you, you suddenly got together with my best brother. Before I got over the blow, you two committed suicide together. My good brother even forced me to shoot or kill him or you. I couldn't do it and closed my eyes. As I opened them, a gunshot was heard, and you two died in the sea. I was depressed for three years, and three years later, you two were suddenly resurrected one after another, one stupid and the other with amnesia.
Of course he didn't say that, he just looked at Zhang Qingqing seriously and said: "You can think so, no matter what, I will take care of you, it can be regarded as... making up for my guilt."
Seeing Zhang Qingqing's face become extremely hurt in front of him, Gu Nankai felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He originally wanted to speak to him and explain everything clearly, but in the end he still took the blame on himself. In the three years before this, Gu Nankai always felt that it was because of him, Zhang Qingqing, that he was badly hurt in that disaster, but as time passed, he had more and more doubts in his heart, and coupled with what Ren Yiyuan said, Gu Nankai suddenly felt that, had he ever understood Zhang Qingqing from the beginning to the end?
When he finally calmed down and thought about this question on his way back, he realized that there was a lot he didn't know about Zhang Qingqing. What kind of job did he do after graduating from college? What was she busy with every day? Did she have any friends?
It was only at this time that Gu Nankai realized that apart from Zhang Qingqing, he knew nothing about her. It was not that he didn't care about her, but he had been struggling with pain for a long time in the past. He had to fight the sequelae of the injections in his body, was busy with the police academy assessment, and was busy dealing with every exam that was simple for others but extremely harsh for him. When he was finally able to control his body, they seemed to have grown up. She still seemed to call him Brother Nankai, Brother Nankai, but there was some gap between them. They seldom talked about each other's lives, but just helped each other when they could. Their relationship seemed close, but there was a layer of something between them.
It was only now that Gu Nankai realized that that layer of separation was probably the reason that ultimately led Zhao Zhengrong to suddenly do that kind of thing, but Gu Nankai still couldn't figure out what the reason was.
Since he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it and quickly came to his senses and sent Zhang Qingqing back. After settling her down, Gu Nankai quickly drove back to the serious crime team. At that time, Wu Qingluan and Shang Lu had also returned from the Archives Management Office, and Li Meng had just walked in. Because he was not there, Gao Yuan really demonstrated to them what Zhang Qingqing had done in vivid detail, and he acted very realistically. When he suddenly came to his senses and saw Gu Nankai standing at the door, Gao Yuan was so scared that he almost choked and fainted on the spot.
“Boss… Boss, you’re back!” Gao Yuan had a look of dying, but he quickly put on a smile and looked at Gu Nankai in a flattering way. He looked at the few people who were still not satisfied with what they had just seen, as if asking for help. However, the expressions of those people were not much better. If the Boss found out about this, who knows how angry he would be…
Even Wu Qingluan didn't dare to raise her head to look at Gu Nankai.
Gu Nankai stood at the door, thinking of Gao Yuan's imitation just now. He felt that it would be a good choice for him to act in the future. Thinking of this, he snorted coldly, raised his steps and walked towards them. As he walked, he said coldly: "Why, I see that your imitation is very lifelike, why did you stop?"
Gao Yuan's face looked like he was about to cry. He ran to Gu Nankai with a nod and a bow. "Hey, Boss, you know me, right? I'm good in every way except that I'm mean. I just wasn't paying attention to my performance for a moment. Please don't get mad at me. It would be bad if it hurts our relationship."
Seeing how sincere he was, Gu Nankai sneered in his heart. He was sure that this guy had put on a show here, and he didn't know how many times Cao Mo would have to put on a show when he went to find him. It was impossible for him to expect him to admit his mistake.
"Don't mention it, the acting is pretty good."
Gu Nankai curled his lips and patted him on the shoulder twice, as if to encourage them for a job well done. Not only did Gao Yuan's heart beat fast in disbelief, but even Wu Qingluan and the others looked up at him in disbelief. This was... why was this different from what they imagined!
"Gao Yuan, teach them more when you have time."
Gu Nankai found a seat and sat down. He saw the takeaway they had ordered not long ago on the table. There was an unopened portion of food that was his favorite flavor. He took it directly, opened the box, and said something to Gao Yuan while eating. Several people looked at him with confusion, and everyone almost had a few black lines on their foreheads.
"Boss, have you been tortured to the point of being stupid?" Gao Yuan swallowed and said this involuntarily, feeling extremely worried.
Gu Nankai ate his food in big mouthfuls, glanced at them reluctantly, and then said in a hurry: "What are you thinking about? I'll tell you in detail after I finish eating."
