Chapter 870: Gu Family
He Xiyan read these reports one by one. She sat at the head of the bed frowning, looking quite restless. She was very happy that Jiahang had such a good family background and was also glad that he could restore his memory. In this way, his relatives would be very excited and joyful. But she suddenly became somewhat worried. What kind of ident.i.ty would she claim when she meets his family?
The next day, He Xiyan went in a taxi with Jiahang again. After Jiahang gave an address, the car drove to the west of Jingzhou. Without saying anything along the way, He Xiyan simply looked out of the window and looked at the city she had never been to before. She grasped her fingers, and somehow she had an impulse to get off.
Noticing some subtle expressions of He Xiyan, Chen Jiahang held her hand tightly and then pulled her into his arms. “It’s all right, Yanyan. We will arrive soon.”
He Xiyan nodded. She looked at the beautiful houses along the road. It was a villa district, where there should be many rich people living there. The car continued to head west and stopped in front of a house after pa.s.sing a lake.
It was a very distinctive house, which should be a large house in modern style, with white wall, black glazed tiles and vermilion windows. There were two tall camphor trees in front of the courtyard, under which were two stone lion statues. Such a courtyard belonged to a big family at first sight.
He Xiyan and Jiahang had just got out of the car and reached the door when they heard the barking of dogs coming from inside the house. Soon a big white-brown dog ran out from the left side of the yard.
It was an adult Collie, tall and strong, about 70CM tall by visual measurement.
He Xiyan was scared and hid behind Chen Jiahang. She was once bitten by a dog in Mang village. Now upon seeing a dog, she was terrified, especially such a large dog.
Chen Jiahang, however, stood still there. He just stared at the dog, eyes fixed.
Suddenly the dog stopped barking. He squatted in front of the iron door, spitting out his long tongue and looking at the people at the gate.
“Lang Duo…”
Suddenly, Chen Jiahang called out a strange name.
He Xiyan was stunned. She thought someone was coming, so she looked into the courtyard. But there was none. Was it the dog’s name?
“Lang Duo, come…” Chen Jiahang waved his hand toward the dog.
At this time, He Xiyan was surprised to find that the dog in front of him was wandering around the iron gate, barking constantly, forcing itself several times into the crack of the iron gate, as if it really wanting to come out through the crack.
Suddenly a woman’s voice came from the room.
“Lang Duo, stop shouting.”
He Xiyan looked inside and found a woman in her fifties coming towards the door, who was still wearing an ap.r.o.n and wiping her hands meanwhile.
When the woman came to the iron gate, she suddenly opened her eyes wide and trembled all over. She took a step back as if she had been frightened.
“You…” The woman looked straight at Chen Jiahang, her eyes filled with shock, even with a trace of fear.
She knocked her head with her hand to see if she was dreaming.
Chen Jiahang raised his lips slightly and called out with a smile, “Aunt Qin.”
Bang…
The woman felt that she was blown dizzy by a hard knock on her head.
Her body trembled again and her eyes kept blinking. Suddenly, she ran excitedly inside.
