After that, the two stopped talking about business. Gu Hanye and Xiao Jiu discussed the taste of food, and even exchanged the dishes on the plate.

Mu Ying looked at the young master again, he was not as relaxed as Gu Hanye, his expression was even a little heavy, maybe he felt a lot of pressure because of business matters?

After a while, the young master said to Gu Hanye: "Actually, the past has been targeting you not only because of Xiao Chongyang's order, but also for other reasons..."

Gu Hanye was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "It's over anyway, so let's look forward to a happy cooperation in the future."

"No, I still need to talk about it," the young master paused, "and it has nothing to do with Xiao Jiu."

Gu Hanye rolled his eyes and put down the tableware.

Mu Ying was also taken aback, she always thought that the young master targeted Gu Hanye for two reasons, one was Xiao Chongyang's order, and the other was because of Xiao Jiu.

Before Xiao Jiu married Gu Hanye, the young master was instructed by Xiao Chongyang to beat Gu Hanye many times.

Later, when Xiao Jiu married Gu Hanye, the young master once thought that Gu Hanye had taken Xiao Jiu by force, and he only wanted to rescue Xiao Jiu from the Gu family, so he hated Gu Hanye more.

Of course, after the young master knew that Xiaojiu had fallen in love with Gu Hanye, in order not to make Xiaojiu sad, he never made a move to Gu Hanye, and only showed Xiao Chongyang.

Now the young master said that he targeted Gu Hanye for other reasons, and it had nothing to do with Xiaojiu.

What else?Mu Ying couldn't figure it out.

Gu Hanye dipped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and said to the young master, "Actually, I'm also very curious. Before Xiao Jiu and I got married, Xiao Chongyang ordered you to assassinate me. I didn't know the relationship between you and Xiao Chongyang at the time, but I could feel it. , you want me to die from the bottom of your heart, why?"

Xiao Jiu also looked at the young master: "Do you and Gu Hanye have any other grievances?"

The young master nodded, "It can also be said to be a misunderstanding."

The young master drank the wine in his glass and talked about a past event many years ago...

When the young master was four years old, his parents were killed, and the old housekeeper hid abroad with the young master and his younger sister.

They hid in various small countries in Europe, and finally arrived in the countryside of Switzerland, where they settled in a small village.

Although the village is small, the scenery is beautiful, like a paradise.

In this small village, the young master and younger sister grew up healthily. Although their lives were not rich, they finally lived a peaceful life without hiding.

Just when the young master thought that he, his sister and the housekeeper would live peacefully here forever, disaster struck.

The young master was 11 years old that year.

Early that morning, he went to the small river outside the village. As usual, he planned to catch a few small fish and ask the housekeeper to make soup for his sister.

The small river is very shallow, but there are many fish and shrimps, and because my younger sister loves to eat fish, the young master often goes to that small river to catch some fish and shrimps for my younger sister to eat.

But usually they are small fish and shrimps. For some reason that day, the fish in the river were too many and fat. He had already caught two, which was enough for lunch for the three of them. But it was rare to see so many fish, so the young master wanted to catch more A few go back and ask the uncle to make salty crispy fish for storage, enough for them to eat for two or three days.

So he went back to the river again, and just as he was concentrating on catching fish, people screamed in the distance.

Looking back, I saw a raging fire burning in a residential house in the distance. The flames were wrapped in black smoke and sprang several meters high.

Nearby villagers are trying to extinguish the flames with water.

But the buckets of water sprinkled on the fire did not have any effect at all. The flames got a little lower, and soon jumped higher, burning more vigorously.

The young master stared at the flames for two seconds, and before his brain gave instructions, he had already opened his legs and rushed towards the burning cabin.

Because it seemed to be his home.

My sister and uncle housekeeper are still at home!

He just stretched his legs mechanically, and the big fat fish in the bucket, the big fish that he caught for stew for his sister, bumped out of the bucket while he was running, and kicked upright on the grass.

He took a look and continued to run forward, praying that it wasn't his and his sister's home...

The young master finally ran home, the water in the bucket was spilled, and the fish was gone, only a small shrimp was left dying at the bottom of the bucket.

Neighbors have also stopped splashing water because the fire is too big to be contained.

The young master quickly swept through the crowd, but there was no sign of his sister or uncle housekeeper...

He threw away the empty bucket and rushed home like crazy, but was stopped by two neighbors.

He kept shouting and kicking his legs, but the neighbors grabbed his arms and hugged his waist, preventing him from rushing in.

He just watched the wooden house struggling in the fire and listened to the crackling sound of the wood.

The roof collapsed, there was a huge muffled bang, and a heat wave hit his face. He seemed to smell the smell of his sister's burnt hair.

My sister has good hair, black and shiny, always braided behind her head.

The young master didn't know how long the fire had been burning, and he didn't remember when the neighbors let him go.

I only remember that I was kneeling outside the burnt house, opening my mouth and shouting, but I couldn't make a sound.

Bean-sized raindrops fell densely from the sky, and the rain was heavy, but this rain came too late.

The neighbors held umbrellas for him and said something to him, maybe some comforting words, maybe they wanted him to stay in the neighbor's house temporarily.

But he seemed to have lost his hearing and couldn't hear anything.

People gradually left, the young master climbed up from the mud, and walked into the small wooden house that was as black as carbon, with only broken walls.

He found the bones of his younger sister and the butler uncle from the ashes emitting residual heat. The butler hugged his younger sister and curled up in a corner...

Later, from the ashes, he smelled gasoline.

He knew then that it was a murder.

He was just lucky to escape, but it can also be said to be unfortunate, because from that day on, he no longer has any real relatives in this world.

The people who killed his sister and the housekeeper should be the same group as those who killed his parents. Although there is no evidence, he believes that his uncle did it. The purpose is to drive them out to avoid future troubles.

The young master buried his younger sister and uncle housekeeper, and buried them by the river with his own hands.

But where he should go and what to live on after that, he has no idea.

He only knows that he must survive and become strong.

He wanted to go back to Haicheng, to his former home, to take back everything that was robbed by his uncles, to avenge his parents, his sister, and the housekeeper.

But how to go back?Revenge by what?

He knelt in front of his younger sister and uncle's grave, and realized that he knew nothing but hatred.

Mr. Xiao appeared at this time. Mr. Xiao said that he was a friend of the young master's parents and was willing to help him return to the Chu family.

The young master just came to Mr. Xiao's side...

The young master stopped when he said this, and smiled bitterly at Mu Ying, "Idiot, I haven't cried yet, why did you cry first?"

The young master wiped away her tears with his thumb as he spoke.

But more tears welled up from Mu Ying's eyes, the young master had never told her these things, at least not in such detail.

For the first time, she also deeply understood the young master's hatred.

Because those murderers took away the best things in his life.

Gu Hanye cleared his throat, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, let me interrupt...I sympathize with what happened to you, but I wasn't the murderer who killed your relatives, why did you seek revenge from me?"
