Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Adoptive Parents

Translator: ShinoJ

“Gu Manxi held a cup of hot water in her hand. “”What did you do wrong again?”” ”

“Song Chen replied, “”A lot of things.”” ”

“Song Chen had met Gu Manxi for the first time in the past — back then, she had changed her name to [ Gu Ruoxi ] . Song Chen had thought that Gu Manxi was like the other little female celebrities, wanting to climb into his bed to gain fame and status. ”

It was only later that he realized that Gu Manxi was just very short of money. Her adoptive mother was seriously ill and needed a large amount of medical expenses.

“Gu Manxi said, “”When I have some free time in the future, I plan to visit the little town. It’s been a long time since I visited their graves and didn’t fulfill my responsibilities as a daughter.”” ”

“””Can you tell me about your adoptive parents?”” Song Chen was eager to understand her past. ”

“In the past, when he and Gu Manxi were together, they only had a physical relationship in bed. The two of them relied on a contract to maintain a relationship that was easily broken. Song Chen never wanted to understand her past. ”

“When he really wanted to understand her later, she had already left. ”

“Gu Manxi held a cup of hot water. Perhaps finally, someone was willing to listen to her talk about the past. She was willing to open her heart and tell him about the pain and helplessness of these years. ”

“Around the age of five or six years old, Gu Manxi was lost in the shopping mall. She could no longer remember the part where she was lost. She ended up having a high fever and was taken to the orphanage. ”

“Later, her high fever subsided, and her memories before the age of five or six were blurred. She didn’t stay in the orphanage for long and was adopted and brought up by the childless Ming Qiuyue couple. ”

“””My parents treated me very well and treated me as their own daughter.”” Gu Manxi lowered her eyes. “”However, something happened later.”” ”

“When Gu Manxi was in primary school, some thief robbed their house. ”

“It was unknown where the thief came from. He stole a lot of the family’s savings and also stole the jewelry box at home. Ming Qiuyue’s diamond ring, earrings, and Gu Manxi’s necklace were all stolen by the thief. ”

“””When my father came home from work, he happened to run into the thief. He chased after him, but the thief ran very fast. My father was just a weak teacher. He couldn’t catch up with the thief at all. He was so anxious that he accidentally fell into the ditch and hit his head, causing a lot of blood to flow... He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, but he could not be saved.”” Gu Manxi’s eyes were moist, “”Before he died, my father even apologized to my mother, saying that he had broken his promise to take care of my mother for the rest of her life.”” 1″

Gu Manxi would rather her father not chase after the thief.

“If money was gone, they could earn it again. ”

“But if his life was gone, what would happen to her mother? ”

“””After my father left, my mother was too sad and kept getting sick. Later, she became so sick that she could only be hospitalized. I wasn’t even 18 at that time, and my family didn’t have any money... I heard that being a star can earn a lot of money, so I came to the capital to look for money.”” ”

Gu Manxi was lucky. She met the young director Lu Shanhe in the capital.

“Lu Shanhe was shocked when he saw her. He immediately let her, who was still young and inexperienced, be the female lead in the movie. Gu Manxi temporarily received a generous reward, but compared to the high treatment fees, it was still a drop in the bucket. ”

“Later, she accidentally drank a drink that had been spiked and accidentally interacted with the famous Song Chen. ”

“When Song Chen handed the lover’s agreement to her, she signed her name without hesitation. ”

“Recalling the past, Gu Manxi lowered her eyes. “”At that time, you gave me a large sum of money, which was enough to cover the medical expenses. It’s just that my mother, she... no longer had the intention to live. She said that father is no longer in the world, and she misses him very much.”” ”

“Ming Qiuyue, who was seriously ill, finally passed away on a peaceful spring night. ”
