"What is it?" Song Yun asked.
"You know, for this matter, your father and I started planning a month or two ago, because I couldn’t just suddenly die. No one would believe that. So, I had to first fall ill, and the illness had to progress. During this process, I acted bit by bit, making people think my illness was getting worse. Initially, I planned to tell Lai Fu, but later, I discovered a few things." Mr. Song said.
"What things?" Song Yun asked.
"The eavesdropping device under the turf."
Mr. Song pointed to the lawn beside him and said, "Old Wang discovered the eavesdropping device under the lawn. Although it was buried over a ter deep, it couldn’t escape Old Wang’s senses. So, at that ti, I felt Lai Fu was sowhat unreliable, but I didn’t dare confirm it. Hence, I endured and didn’t speak up, then found an opportunity to probe Lai Fu!"
"How did you probe?" Song Yun asked.
"You might not know, my personal seal is kept in a box." Mr. Song said, "And the key to that box has always been with . That day, I deliberately told Lai Fu that I needed to use the seal but couldn’t walk, so I asked Lai Fu to help fetch it. Subsequently, I had Old Wang follow Lai Fu, and it turned out that after Lai Fu took my seal, he first stamped a docunt with it. That’s when I knew Lai Fu was no longer one of us."
"Second Uncle, you even kept this from . I thought it was strange when I asked if we should tell Lai Fu to cooperate with us, and you said no. That’s when I found it odd." Song Ergou smiled and said from the side.
"In such matters, the fewer people know, the better. If you knew beforehand and let it slip, what then? Everything we’ve done would go to waste." Mr. Song said.
"But... but Second Grandpa..." Song Yun just wanted to say sothing, but Mr. Song said, "Rember, call Grandpa."
"Uh-huh, Grandpa, but that day when I saw you, it was indeed like the deceased, it was exactly like you!" Song Yun said.
"That was a substitute." Mr. Song said, "I had Ergou find a substitute from the hospital with a similar build to mine, and after disguising him, it was a seamless corpse of mine."
"Disguise..." Song Yun paused for a mont, then said, "That disguise technique is amazing. I even touched the hair and skin with my own hands. It really... really didn’t feel like a disguise."
"You have soone to thank for that."
Mr. Song said with a smile, "To be honest, that person is a good friend of yours."
"A good friend of mine?" Song Yun was stunned again, and then his eyes lit up. He said, "Grandpa, you’re saying... you’re saying..."
"It’s Angel."
Mr. Song’s words almost made Song Yun jump up. Song Yun exclaid in surprise, "Angel? It’s Angel? Grandpa, where is Angel now?"
"I don’t know either."
Mr. Song shook his head and said, "Back then, I worked hard on the makeup issue, and then... Angel ca to . Knowing her disguise skills were formidable, I asked her to help. Unexpectedly, she agreed right away. After seeing her disguise effects, I decided to have her disguise my corpse."
"Why would Angel co to you?" Song Yun asked in astonishnt, "I couldn’t find her anywhere."
"Song Yun, if I’m not mistaken, Angel is a Gypsy, right?" Mr. Song asked.
"Yes, she is a Gypsy, but we’re truly in love." Song Yun said.
"The Gypsy people are a wandering tribe, nothing can settle them down. Angel is the epito of that. I even asked her, why not stay with you, and she said, when a Gypsy woman falls in love with a man, he’ll receive misfortune. So, the best way for a Gypsy woman is to stay away from her man." Mr. Song said.
"Then why did Angel co to you?" Song Yun asked, "Wasn’t she coming for ?"
"Certainly not..."
Mr. Song spoke with a smile, "Angel ca to secure a status for her future child."
"What?"
Song Yun was stunned, looking at Mr. Song blankly, and asked, "What do you an?"
"In other words, Angel is pregnant with your child. She hopes both she and your child could have an upright status, so she ca to to see if I could grant her child a rightful identity in the Song Family lineage." Mr. Song said.
"How co? Angel actually has my child! She has my child!" Song Yun said excitedly, "I need to find her, I must find her."
"It’s useless, Song Yun." Mr. Song shook his head and said, "When she appeared in front of , I wanted to make her stay. After all, she was carrying our Song Family’s descendant. And we Song Family don’t care who she is, even a misfortune-bringing Gypsy woman, we Song Family have the power to suppress such bad luck. But unfortunately, she insisted on leaving. I wanted to stop her, but couldn’t. Her disguise skills are unmatched."
"Angel... Angel."
Song Yun clenched his fists and said with pain, "Why do you have to be like this, why can’t you just stay with peacefully, why..."
"Angel did it for your sake too." Mr. Song said, "She’s afraid of their people’s curse bringing you misfortune."
"I... I know, but I don’t mind..." Song Yun said, "Grandpa, can we still find her now?"
"No way." Mr. Song shook his head and said, "After disguising my corpse, Angel left."
"Alas!"
Song Yun sighed and said, "One day, I will find her!"
At this mont, among so Song Family mbers not far from Song Yun, a man without distinctive characteristics was intently watching Song Yun, his eyes full of deep affection.
"Song Yun, how I yearn to stay by your side too."
In the man’s eyes flashed a trace of helplessness, "We bring misfortune, so we aren’t entitled to happiness."
The man took a deep look at Song Yun, turned, and walked away, while Xia Tian glanced at the man but did not speak.
