Chapter 809: Chapter 537 His Selfishness, For Nanxi_2
The gaze startled him, and then, the woman suddenly let out a loud scream, “Ah—,” knocking over the foot-washing water. She clutched her head and shrank back onto the bed, while the man quickly stood up to embrace her and told her, “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, I’ll drive him away right now…”
Lin Pinzhi was also frightened at the time, stammering without being able to say anything.
Embracing his own wife, the man yelled at him, “Get out, get out right now, get out, out…”
At that time, he felt as if there were a string taut in his heart, as if it was about to snap at any moment!
Two days later, he saw the middle-aged couple again on the path at the nursing home!
At that moment, the man was walking step by step along the path, holding his wife’s hand.
He subconsciously raised his camera to take a picture, but as soon as his hand touched the shutter button, he stopped!
He followed them from a great distance, not wanting to be noticed!
After what seemed like a long walk, the man led his wife away, and he watched them return to their room. Just as he was about to turn and leave, the man suddenly stood at the door and called out to him!
Furrowing his brows, the man said, “Come in for a drink of water.”
He was surprised for a moment, then nodded his agreement.
He had thought the man would say something to him, but in reality, there was nothing.
He really just gave him a glass of water, and then he went into the inner room to take care of his wife.
As he was leaving, the man said, “When you’re done drinking, you can leave by yourself; I won’t see you out!”
With the teacup in hand, he stood in that small living room and glanced at the surrounding decor.
It was modest, but everything was neatly arranged and, moreover, very clean!
He suddenly realized that this couple was not ordinary, and they must be a couple with a story!
For example, why had they come to Thailand? What had he and his wife gone through? Why had they ended up ? Why did his wife not recognize people?
He had too many questions, but the people around him didn’t know. Moreover, their names were changed, obviously not their real ones!
Then, he saw a photograph placed on the living room shelf.
It was a picture of a young girl, looking delicate and cute, with a warm and sweet smile!
He did not take a picture, despite his strong curiosity.
After finishing his tea, he left, and a few days later, after concluding the follow-up interviews, he moved on with the team to their next destination, ending his trip to Thailand!
He still remembered that when he was leaving, his colleague asked him, “Did you manage to wrap up things with that couple?”
The colleague laughed, “Can’t believe there’s someone even PICK can’t handle!”
He laughed too. He used to be the kind of person who, no matter what difficulties he encountered, would never give up on interviewing someone!
But when faced with that middle-aged couple, he gave up!
He was curious, yet suddenly, he could not bear to peel back that layer of scars, feeling, it would cause pain!
After finishing his story, Lin Pinzhi turned his head to look at Nanxi, only to discover that she was already in tears, leaning on the table and sobbing uncontrollably.
He let out a long breath from the bottom of his heart.
In fact, he had already considered such a possibility before.
But, time had passed for too long, and even though his memory was vivid, the profession of interviewing was inherently about constantly exploring the marvelous and the different.
Over time, even he began to feel he was about to forget!
If it hadn’t been for meeting Nanxi later, he would have perhaps truly forgotten about that middle-aged couple!
He covertly investigated Nanxi’s information, while also requesting his American colleague to send over the rolls of film he had taken during his working period in the United States!
Every night after returning home, he would start searching through that stack of films for the only photo he had taken of the couple!
After searching for two whole days, he finally found it, and as he looked at the woman’s eyes and brows in the photo, he closed his eyes!
He contacted a friend in the Thai media to find out if Basong and Nina were still staying at the nursing home; his friend said there were records, the people were still there!
During the Shiyi holiday, he had planned to go to Thailand in person to confirm, but due to the sudden heavy attention drawn by Nanxi’s report, his schedule was packed with no vacation time whatsoever.
Besides, he was hesitant, for he did not know whether what he was doing was right or not!
Three years ago, when he met that man, he believed the middle-aged man was of sound mind in every way, or else he wouldn’t have put Nanxi’s photo in the living room!
But if so, why wouldn’t he look for his own daughter? What difficulties was he facing?
What difficulties made him prefer to abandon his own daughter and flee abroad with his wife rather than return to the embrace of his homeland?
He feared that his rash actions might do more harm than good, as many people who flee abroad and change their names usually have committed offenses in their home country or something else…
Moreover, Nanxi is currently doing well; she has met a man who takes very good care of her, she is married, she is pregnant.
Now, at this moment, as he watched Nanxi cry her eyes out, his heart ached, yet he could not say a word to comfort her!
How to put it? At the very least, a meeting was needed, and besides, Lu Yinchu was very capable, he believed there was nothing he could not handle!
He had to admit, in his conjecture about this matter, he had once acted selfishly, disregarding social laws as an upright citizen!
His selfishness, it was for Nanxi!
When Lu Yinchu arrived, he was pained to see Nanxi crying hysterically with her head on the table; he took a step forward and wrapped her in his arms!
Seeing Lu Yinchu, Nanxi cried even harder, unable to stop her tears!
While hugging Nanxi, Lu Yinchu looked sharply at Lin Pinzhi, “Give me an explanation!”
Liao Feifei had been deliberately sent out by Lin Pinzhi, and now seeing Lu Yinchu arrive, she set aside everything else and immediately ran back in!
Indeed, as her senior had said, Nanxi’s husband was actually Lu Yinchu!
But at this moment, Liao Feifei could not afford to be surprised; she didn’t know why Nanxi was crying—was it something her senior had caused? And with the two men looking so tense at this moment, they weren’t about to come to blows, were they?
Lin Pinzhi gave Lu Yinchu one look, smiled faintly, and after silently collecting the materials on the table, he took out a blank sheet of paper, wrote down a few words, and passed it to Lu Yinchu!
“Take good care of her, Mr. Lu!” Having said that, Lin Pinzhi stood up and left, Liao Feifei still confused about what just happened, didn’t delay any further, and quickly followed!
Lu Yinchu took Nanxi to the Shuicheng Residential District; Nanxi was crying so hard that he feared the Lu Family would worry, so he dared not go back!
After dinner, he settled Nanxi down and went into the living room to make a phone call to Li Weihuan.
Li Weihuan answered quickly, and Lu Yinchu paused before speaking, “Pack your bags, tomorrow morning at eight at H City airport, we will wait for you! There’s a lead on Nanxi’s parents!”
The scent of the conclusion is in the air! Votes for the monthly ticket requested!
