Xiao Jiu had seen the portrait in the picture frame on the desk many times. Every time he saw it, Qin Shu would tell him that it was her mother and his grandmother.
While Xiao Jiu climbed up the chair nimbly, Qin Shu had already walked to the desk and was curious as to why he was so agitated.
When she saw him holding her mother’s portrait and saying that it was this grandmother, she was completely stunned.
Xiao Jiu meant that the woman on the Qi Mountain looked very similar to her mother?
She hurriedly asked her son, “Are you saying that the woman on the mountain looks very similar to the person in the portrait?”
Xiao Jiu nodded, “Yes, her eyes are not azure blue, but they look very similar.”
There was a woman who looked very similar to her mother on the Qi Mountain. What did this mean?
Could she be her mother’s sister?
Or…?
For a moment, countless possibilities flashed through Qin Shu’s mind, but she quickly dismissed those thoughts.
Fu Tingyu had said that Master and her mother should know each other. Master should know that woman and her mother look alike.
Why hadn’t he mentioned it?
“Mommy,” Xiao Jiu called out. Qin Shu didn’t respond. He was a little confused, so he took the portrait and got down from the chair. After all, he was still a three-year-old child. With the portrait in his hand, it was a little inconvenient for him to get down. Since he was also rushing, in the end, his hand slipped and the photo frame fell to the ground. With a “splash” sound, the glass shattered all over the ground.
It also brought Qin Shu back to her senses. She first looked at her son, afraid that he would be injured and frightened. “Xiao Jiu, are you okay?”
“Mommy, I’m fine. It’s just that…” he looked at the shattered glass on the ground. “The photo frame broke.”
“It’s fine. Mommy will clean it up. You stand by the side and don’t cut your hand.” Knowing that her son was alright, Qin Shu heaved a sigh of relief and bent down to clean up the glass shards on the ground.
She picked up the portrait first and saw the words on the back of the portrait from the corner of her eye.
She had been keeping the portrait in a box ever since she took it back from Qin Hai’s villa.
She had only taken it out and placed it on the desk last year. She had never opened it or changed the frame.
The reason she hadn’t changed it was the patterns on the frame were very artistic, and the chosen materials were not ordinary wood, but very expensive rosewood.
With Qin Hai’s taste, he couldn’t have chosen such a frame.
If she looked carefully, she knew that this frame was specially customized by someone.
She turned the portrait over and saw that on the back was written, 2004.5.7/Ziqing
This date should be the date the painting was drawn, and the time should be twenty-four years ago.
“Who is Ziqing?” She held the portrait and muttered to herself.
Xiao Jiu replied, “It’s Grandmaster. Grandma called Grandmaster Ziqing.”
Qin Shu turned her head to look at her son and asked again, “Did you hear her call Master like this? Ziqing?”
Xiao Jiu nodded vigorously. “Yes, that’s how Grandma calls Grandmaster.”
Qin Shu lowered her head and looked at the portrait in her hand. It was drawn by Master more than twenty years ago. This also meant that Master and her mother had known each other before she was born.
Then, were they friends, or…
Rather than thinking about this, it was better to see it with her own eyes.
Xiao Jiu did not know what had happened. Seeing her mother’s expression, he felt that something must have happened.
When Fu Tingyu came back, Qin Shu told him about this matter in general.
“I want to go to Qi Mountain to take a look.”
After hearing her words, Fu Tingyu felt that something was amiss. Master said that parents were not allowed to go up the mountain, while Babe’s mother could go up the mountain to see her child. It seemed that Master and Wen Xin had an unusual relationship.
“I’ll go with you.”
Qin Shu nodded. “Okay.”
Fu Tingyu also looked at the portrait. It was of Wen Xin when she was young. It was very detailed and looked very much like a photo, especially the color that matched it very well.
Blue eyes?
He suddenly remembered that his mother’s pet, Ye Si, also had blue eyes.
He then looked at the words on the back of the portrait. They were somewhat similar to Master’s handwriting.
Ziqing?
It shouldn’t be his name, but his nickname?
After confirming that he was going to Qi Mountain, Fu Tingyu asked Shi Yan to book flight tickets for the next day.
Before going to bed, Qin Shu went to her son’s room and briefly told him about going to Qi Mountain the next day.
“Mommy will come back after we find out about the matter.”
Knowing that his parents must have something important to go to Qi Mountain, Xiao Jiu didn’t insist on going. “Then I’ll wait for Mommy at home.”
Qin Shu rubbed her son’s hair and felt gratified. “Yes, Xiao Jiu is the best.”
The next morning, Fu Tingyu and Qin Shu left the house and rushed to the airport.
When they arrived at the Ancient Wind City of Nan Yue, it was eight o’clock in the evening.
Fu Tingyu booked a room at Fengyue Inn. After settling in, he said, “Let’s rest for the night first. We’ll go up the mountain tomorrow morning.”
Qin Shu looked at the pitch-black night outside the window and could only nod. “Yeah, that’s all we can do.”
Fu Tingyu saw that she was a little absent-minded. “You are in a hurry to go up the mountain?”
“Yeah, Master must know about what happened to my mother. Also, what does that woman who looks like my mother on Qi mountain have to do with my mother?”
There were too many questions that troubled her, making her anxious to uncover the answers.
The man comforted her. “Don’t think so much. Go take a shower first and rest early. You’ll know the answer when you go up the mountain tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Qin Shu took her clothes and went in to take a shower first.
Fu Tingyu changed the bedsheets and quilt again and waited for Qin Shu to come out before going in to take a shower.
When she was lying on the bed, Qin Shu was nestled in the man’s arms. Thinking that Master had not mentioned these things, she felt a little uneasy. “Will Master not be willing to talk about it?”
Fu Tingyu paused, tightened his arms, and hugged her tightly. He comforted her in a low voice, “You’ll know when you go up the mountain tomorrow. Go to sleep first.”
Qin Shu nodded and did not ask any more questions. She felt a little uneasy.
The sky had just turned bright when Fu Tingyu and Qin Shu got up.
After eating some food, they left the inn.
When they reached the Long Bridge, the sky was already bright.
It was just autumn, and the weather was still very hot.
On the Long Bridge, the white fog was still very thick, and Qi Mountain could not be seen.
Fu Tingyu held his wife’s hand and stepped onto the Long Bridge.
Qin Shu suddenly thought of something and turned her head to look at the man. “Do you want to call Master to let him know? Master said that if there’s anything, call him and not go up the mountain.”
The man chuckled. “It’s too late to call now. This is a signal-blocking area.”
“Oh, right.” Qin Shu finally remembered that there was a signal-blocking area at the foot of the mountain. Signal was only available on the mountain.
“Then let’s go up first. Master shouldn’t be so petty.”
The man smiled and then said seriously, “Don’t you feel that Master’s not allowing us to go up the mountain, and even setting up an array is trying to hide something?”
Qin Shu was a little helpless. “I have my doubts too, but Master isn’t willing to say it. He said that he has his doubts and no one can answer them. I’m wondering what his doubts are.”
Fu Tingyu said, “Master’s doubts shouldn’t be with us..” He thought for a while and said, “I have a feeling that Master will know some of the reasons for your amnesia.”
