Chapter 1027 - 1030 The Truth About Mother’s Illness 3
Gu Shaocheng nodded, crossed his legs, and casually flipped through a stack of documents on his knee, which were about the woman in front of him.
This woman was once a lover of Miyai in the past and had left him a long time ago after being diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease, now living in a small mountain village in Japan.
Back then, she adopted a child, who has now grown into an honest adult man. Over the years, he and his wife took great care of her with filial piety.
"I heard you wanted to talk to me in person?"
The woman’s eyes, drained of energy, seemed to laugh wildly; if she could still laugh freely, Gu Shaocheng thought, she would surely have burst into loud laughter at this moment. Unfortunately, she couldn’t control her facial muscles to laugh, but even so, it couldn’t suppress her excited good mood.
"Good... good... good..."
The look of gratification in the woman’s eyes was clearly visible to Gu Shaocheng.
"You did well!"
"Miyai, you... died... died well!"
Haha, haha, in one’s lifetime, even if one cannot personally take revenge, it is utterly satisfying to have lived to see the day Miyai goes to hell, especially dying by the hand of Ziteng’s son.
Gu Shaocheng waited patiently for her emotions to settle before he said, "You can speak now."
The woman’s emotions had not steadied; after a long while, tears unexpectedly rolled down her face. Her emotions fluctuated drastically, nearly causing her to lose her breath. Fortunately, he had specifically called Tian Buyu over. Tian Buyu stood by, reminding her not to get too agitated and even taught her how to regulate her breath. After a long while, she finally spoke, "I heard you are investigating the matter between your mother and Miyai... I don’t know everything, but I do know... know how your mother got sick."
"She and I, we were both harmed by Miyai," she said.
Hearing this, a darkness swelled in Gu Shaocheng’s calm eyes, and he lowered them, slowly adjusting the turmoil inside him. Outwardly, he showed little emotion and continued patiently waiting for the woman to slowly reveal everything, even if she paused for five minutes after each sentence, then paused several more before continuing.
"If it hadn’t been for Miyai, neither your mother nor I would have contracted this disease, nor would I have ended up in this horrific, ghostly state."
"It was him! That demon Miyai!"
"He did everything!"
"Back then, your mother and I were classmates in high school, and so was Miyai," she explained.
While listening, Gu Shaocheng continued to flip through the documents. There was a graduation photo in the documents, where someone had drawn a circle with a marker around a person. From the annotated name above it, it seemed to be this very woman who now looked skeletal.
"At that time, Miyai liked Ziteng very much and often wrote her love letters, asking me to deliver them to Ziteng. However, Ziteng felt nothing for Miyai and never read those love letters. Gradually, I started opening them and would teasingly read them to her. While Ziteng lacked the patience to read them, I fell for Miyai because of those letters," the woman said, her eyes brimming with tears, regretting her blindness for falling for such a man. If only she had known his true nature sooner...
"Miyai was very persistent; maybe he truly liked Ziteng at that time. After pursuing her continuously for over two years, he finally moved her, and Ziteng decided to start dating him."
