Chapter 385: Chapter 386: The Hidden Expert in the Marketplace
Xia Yangyang quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe away her tears.
Then she tried to squeeze out a smile: “I’m sorry, it’s just that these noodles taste so much like the ones my mother used to make, so…”
Old Gao’s face seed to undergo a strange change.
Old Gao asked, “Do you miss your mom? You’re a young girl working hard on film sets, on your own. If you miss your family, go and make a phone call. I’m sure your mom misses you too.”
Upon hearing Old Gao’s words, Xia Yangyang couldn’t hold it in anymore: “I would like to call my mom too, but she’s already gone…”
Old Gao also showed a bit of emotion, he sighed: “Poor little girl, what about your dad?”
“My dad…my dad is at ho, but I don’t know what to say to him.”
Xia Yangyang thought about Xia Liangdong, her feelings only grew more complex.
She once had a happy family, a happy childhood.
She once loved her dad too, thinking he was like a superhero, the best dad who could do anything.
But then so many things happened.
In addition to the arrival of Aunt Liu and Xia Weiwei.
Eventually, Xia Yangyang beca estranged from the dad she rembered.
In reality, Xia Yangyang knew that Xia Liangdong was filled with regret and always tried to nd their father-daughter relationship.
But deep down, there’s still resentnt, she resents her dad for betraying her mom.
Now, knowing that there might be so hidden truths about her mother’s death.
Xia Yangyang’s feelings toward Xia Liangdong grew even more complicated.
Xia Weiwei said that she overheard that conversation while Liu Ruyan and Xia Liangdong were arguing.
If it’s true, then Xia Liangdong must have known early on that there was likely a connection between what happened to her mother and the Gu family.
But why didn’t he tell her?
Xia Yangyang just felt like her brain was a ss.
Old Gao sighed: “How about this, you can be my goddaughter, and you can co to whenever you have anything you want to talk about.”
Yet Xia Yangyang was suddenly taken aback.
anwhile, Old Gao gave Xia Yangyang the bodhi bracelet in his hand: “Consider this a gift from . It’s not worth much, but it has stayed with for many years, it will keep you safe.”
Xia Yangyang was still in shock.
All they did was chat casually, so why would Old Gao suddenly want to take her as his goddaughter?
What was going on?
Old Gao looked at the confused look on Xia Yangyang’s face and laughed softly: “What, did I scare you? Do you think I’m a strange old man forcing a young woman to beco his goddaughter?”
Xia Yangyang quickly shook her head: “It’s not like that.”
In fact, Xia Yangyang knew that Old Gao was not just a simple noodle shop owner.
After all, Gao’s Noodle House was said to be open less than a month a year.
It was just Old Gao’s hobby.
The people who ca and went from Old Gao’s noodle shop, all dressed up and in black sunglasses, seed to hold him in considerable awe and respect.
Plus, all kinds of luxury cars would often stop outside such a small noodle shop.
Old Gao had an aura about him that was extraordinary. Xia Yangyang thought of him like a worldly sage who chose to retreat from society.
Xia Yangyang just liked the taste of the noodles at this restaurant, so she often ca by.
But she never thought she would have any connection with this seemingly mysterious man.
Old Gao laughed and said: “Don’t worry, I have no other intentions. I believe in fate, and the first ti I saw you, I felt that we had a rare destiny. I, Old Gao, am alone without any children. I thought, if I had gotten married and had kids, I guess my daughter would have been your age by now.”
There seed to be a hint of sadness in Old Gao’s words..
