The result was that just under ten minutes after he sent the text ssage he had just woven, Gu Shaocheng’s call ca in: "What’s going on? Your mother’s na is Wang Fengtong? The woman in the photo?"
Hua Hua was feeling down, stood up with the phone, walked to the courtyard, and said, "Brother, I plan to learn from you, to have Dad and Mom buried together so they have company, but when we moved the casket, we found that Mom’s coffin was empty, there was no one in it at all. The photo I sent you is of my mom. There’s a neighbor here who took it with my mom back then. Can you help find out what’s going on?"
"Are you sure the woman in the photo is your mom?" Gu Shaocheng’s voice was incomparably serious.
Hua Hua made a sound of agreent: "There shouldn’t be any mistake, the neighbor has no reason to lie to ."
"You should co back." Gu Shaocheng felt sowhat dizzy.
"Go back? I haven’t figured it out yet, I can’t go back for now. I want to find out if my mom is really dead, or if soone has tampered with my mom’s grave. I’m totally confused right now."
Gu Shaocheng said on the phone, "Co back first and we’ll talk."
"No way, I must find out. Otherwise, I can’t eat or sleep."
Gu Shaocheng stood in front of the files in the study, flipped through them for a while, found a file, pulled it out, opened it, and there was a photo inside of it. It was a photo of Chenxing’s mother. Although the ages of the two photos were different and the looks slightly varied, one could still tell that the two people should be the sa person.
"Co back first."
"But, brother..."
"Chenxing’s mother’s na is also Wang Fengtong!"
The words Hua Hua wanted to say got stuck, and for a mont he couldn’t react, then suddenly snapped back: "Brother, what do you an? There are many people with the sa na in this world, right? What does this have to do with Chenxing’s mom?"
He had seen Chenxing’s mom, a woman suffering from ntal illness, very thin, looking dazed, sotis going mad and laughing stupidly to herself, spending most of the ti holding a doll and singing lullabies to it. What did his brother an by telling him Chenxing’s mother’s na was also Wang Fengtong?
Hua Hua suddenly shouted loudly: "Chenxing looks so ugly, and I look so handso, we absolutely have no relation, okay?" There was even so resentnt in his voice as he spoke.
Achoo!
Chenxing, far away in Canada, was in class when he suddenly sneezed.
Gu Shaocheng frowned. His wife couldn’t be described as "so ugly," and he found it hard to tolerate that adjective. "Co back first and we’ll talk. I have a photo of Chenxing’s mother when she was young, I’ll send it to you."
"No!" Hua Hua was extrely resistant, "Chenxing’s mother was also ugly!"
"She was very pretty when she was young." Gu Shaocheng pressed his temples, "Co back, and we’ll talk!"
Hanging up the phone, Hua Hua was completely out of sorts, with a thousand grass mud horses racing through his mind.
Ling Yin ca out, stood behind him, patted him on the back: "What happened?"
"Huh? Oh... nothing." Hua Hua shook his head.
"I’ve eaten, shall we go to the hospital? Are you really not going to eat anything?"
Hua Hua shook his head, looking distracted, then suddenly grabbed Ling Yin’s arm, pinched it hard, and said in a broken voice, unwilling to imagine: "What if..."
"Hmm?"
"What if I have a... Damn, I feel like this world is freaking ridiculous!" Hua Hua suddenly blurted out a curse halfway through his sentence.
