Chapter 342 The switch of the past was turned on
He was aware of his affairs and everyone had heard about them, but not many people knew the specifics. However, with the intelligence of these people, especially Gao Yuan and Cao Cang, they actually knew a lot of things, they were just taking care of him.
Li Meng had never seen Gu Nankai looking so dejected. In his eyes, Gu Nankai had always been the boss who controlled the overall situation. No matter how big the problem was, he could calmly think of a solution. But when he saw Gu Nankai at this moment, he realized that the boss who was fearless in his eyes also had things he was afraid of. Perhaps there were more things in his heart that they didn't know about.
The young man suddenly felt sorry for their boss.
"Boss, if you have anything to tell us, the six of us together are better than you alone. You said you never tell us what's on your mind, and we don't dare to ask. We know that what's on your mind is related to something that happened a few years ago, but we have grown a lot under your leadership. If you want to investigate, it's better for the six of us to work together than for you alone. You've seen that every time we work together to solve a case, no case has ever been difficult for us."
Li Meng said whatever he thought of. He originally thought that he would not say such things for the time being, as the boss certainly did not want to hear him say that. But when he saw the boss reacting so strongly to this matter, he could not bear it any longer and had to say it out. Otherwise, one after another would wait and wait, and he did not know how long it would take.
It is always better to talk it out. If you don't talk it out, both you and the other person will feel uncomfortable. One is caught up in his own worries, and the other is caught up in the dilemma of whether to say it or not. Instead of wasting time on such meaningless things, he actually prefers to say it directly. Everyone wants to solve the problem, and there is no point in getting entangled here.
More importantly, in his heart, their relationship had already reached the point where there was no need for any fancy things to add to it. He felt that everyone had the same idea, it just took someone to say it first.
Indeed, when Li Meng said this recklessly at the beginning, others were surprised and wanted to interrupt Li Meng quickly, but to be frank, everyone had the same thought, but were just embarrassed to bring it up. Firstly, no one knew what Gu Nankai's temper was like, and secondly, they felt that the current atmosphere was not suitable for bringing up this topic.
But Li Meng's words popped out like beans pouring out, and everyone was shocked for a moment. When they came to their senses, he had already finished speaking. He stared at everyone with an innocent face, not feeling at all that he had just done anything shocking.
Li Meng always has the ability to make the situation so that everyone is happy but can't hide the embarrassment.
At this time, everyone's eyes were all on Wu Qingluan. After all, everyone had always thought that the relationship between Teacher Wu and Gu Nankai was very interesting. In addition, the two of them lived under the same roof, so the boss would definitely listen to Wu Qingluan's words, especially Gao Yuan. He had long ago keenly discovered that the relationship between their boss and Teacher Wu had reached the point of telepathy, so at this time, it was no mistake to look at Wu Qingluan eagerly.
Faced with the eager eyes of these children, Wu Qingluan slowly recovered from her initial shock and a bit of uneasiness. As soon as she saw their eyes, she knew that they now wanted her to clean up the mess quickly. She gave these guys a speechless look, but deep down she still felt that what Li Meng had just said was also what she wanted to tell Gu Nankai.
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, squatted down again and looked at Gu Nankai, while Cao Cang had already tactfully led the younger ones to step back, leaving space for them to communicate.
"Actually, what Li Meng said is not wrong. I actually thought so too, not to mention Cao Cang and the others. We get along with each other every day, and we all know each other's situations very well. It's not just us who are curious about your matter. In fact, too many people are curious, and these people are not stupid, they can guess it. In fact, you really can consider what Li Meng said. Since we can help Cao Cang perform surgery on Cao Mo, help Gao Yuan and his father to ease the relationship, and bring Li Meng and Shang Lu together, even my relationship with Zhao Binglin is not as stiff as before, why can't you try to let us find the truth you have always wanted to find together."
Her voice was slow and gentle. Gu Nankai did not speak, but her words flowed gently into his heart like running water. He suddenly remembered what Wu Qingluan had said about his inner demon a long time ago. He could no longer remember the specific circumstances at that time, but he only remembered that she said she could help him heal.
Is it really treatable? Is it really possible to get over the mental demons?
Even though he had always been eager to find the truth over the years, he had never had the courage to take that step. But today, it was as if a switch suddenly opened the door to the past, forcing him to realize that even if he didn't go looking for the truth, the truth might not come to him.
Was seeing that person today the beginning of all this? Was it a sign that he should bravely seek the truth and find out why everything happened in the first place? Was even his blank memories related to that incident?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt his head was filled with too many things for him to react to, as if too many threads were tangled together for him to sort out.
Wu Qingluan saw that he frowned with a headache, and knew in her heart that he must have a lot of things in his mind. She thought about it and didn't want to force her to make a decision, so she made a concession.
"It's getting late today, and we still have a case to solve. Let's go back and rest first, okay? You can give us an answer after you wake up, or you can make a decision after the Zhao family's case is over. We must go back now."
She no longer mentioned this matter to Gu Nankai. Gu Nankai felt inexplicably relieved. He smiled faintly at Wu Qingluan and nodded. He had been here for some time. After being blown by the sea breeze for so long, his head was indeed aching dully. Wu Qingluan gave him a way out, and he just accepted it.
Seeing the two men standing up, Cao Cang and the others quickly came over, and Wu Qingluan also spoke at the right time: "It's getting late today, and we've been busy all day. Let's go back and rest first. We'll talk about today's matters later. Now is not the time to have a deep chat. Besides, our top priority now is the Zhao family's case."
Gu Nankai did not remain silent either. He was too familiar with these people and had nothing to hide. He smiled apologetically. In order not to make them worry too much, he said, "I know what you said, but I need time to sort this out. Can you... give me some time?"
Okay, of course. Since he could say this, it meant that he had listened to what was said just now. This was enough for them. Besides, everyone was really tired now. There was no time to take care of the Zhao family's case today, so there would be a lot to do tomorrow.
So no one said much and went back soon. After Wu Qingluan and Gu Nankai went back, they ate something and went back to their rooms to sleep.
