It goes without saying how popular Gu Tingxiao, a diamond-level bachelor, is.

However, instead of hoping that someone can successfully win over Gu Tingxiao and gain his favor, it's better to look forward to the interactive program between Xiao Anman and Gu Tingxiao.

Listening to An'an's description, Gu Tingxiao already knew who the person who had come was.

However, just as he had told Helian Min before, these were ultimately his own matters. If things really came to the point where Helian Min needed his help, she would naturally come to him herself.

Now, this is merely Helian Min's private matter.

However, Gu Tingxiao could understand Xiao Anman's worries very well.

To avoid causing his beloved daughter too much worry, Gu Tingxiao chose to return to the Gu residence promptly.

"Hey, Doubao, do you think we should go see our brother?"

After ending her call with Gu Tingxiao, Xiao Anman felt much more at ease, so she lay on the carpet in her room, absentmindedly playing with Doubao while talking.

"Awoo~"

Grandpa Doubao said, "Don't you have any more constructive suggestions, human?"

Does it have any special significance for them to go and see it at this time?

Awoo, does she want to go or not? The worry that doesn't match her cute little face makes An'an look especially soft and vulnerable at this moment.

While gently stroking Doubao's fur, An'an wasn't worried that the old man was a bad person. However, she could clearly see that when her brother Helian saw the old man, there was no joy in his eyes.

But at this moment, An'an, whose little belly was full of worries, could not get any useful information from Grandpa Doubao, the only person who was keeping her company.

If only Glamour were here, perhaps he would have some unique ideas.

Inside the Gu family's pavilion, the grandfather and grandson sat and stood, their blood ties still holding some weight.

People are really strange sometimes. Even if you have long looked at a certain person or thing without any expectations, when that person or thing actually reappears in front of you and asks you to face it, what you think is giving up is not really giving up.

As a doctor, one has witnessed countless deaths and become accustomed to them.

The passing of life is inevitable, but not everyone has to accept it.

But when fate truly pushes a person to this point, acceptance becomes less important.

The relentless countdown doesn't care whether anyone can bear such heavy pain.

You've grown up a lot.

The old man had changed from his previous direct and commanding manner to a much calmer one. Even if his inner self was not as calm as he appeared, there had been a significant change.

"I thought you should be at home at this time."

You should take good care of your health at home.

"When you get old, you're stuck in one place for almost your whole life. You still want to come out and see the world. Cough cough, I know that if I don't come, you probably won't come back to see me again."

The old man felt guilty because his actions had hurt him.

He was always strict with Helian Min because he was worried about raising a spoiled child. So when Helian Min was young, he disciplined her with a ruler quite often.

In today's new era, probably very few people had a childhood like Helian Min's, where if they made a mistake, they would be forced to kneel in the ancestral hall and copy medical books.

He still copied them with a brush. The old man's study now contains the medical books that Helian Min copied when she was a child.

The handwriting on the paper went from crooked and messy at the beginning to neat and beautiful later. Just looking at these words, it's as if you can see the little boy sitting at his desk, copying the words earnestly.

Perhaps at that time, because of the excessive punishments, I felt I couldn't finish copying everything and cried while writing.

Looking at Helian Min, who seemed to be doing well despite having made the decision to leave him, the old man couldn't help but reveal a sense of nostalgia and relief in his eyes.

The sight of this elderly man made Helian Min feel that the distance between them seemed to have lessened a little.

"If you came to see me, now that you have seen me, you can go back."

Helian Min was never a heartless person. The scars on his hands when Xiao Anman went to his room that day were the best proof that Helian Min chose to hurt himself rather than hurt others.

So, for Helian Min, the most heartless thing he could do for the old man who raised him was simply to stop contacting him.

"You probably realize that my time is running out. In my whole life, I've always looked forward to everything I've done, but the only thing I want to do to make amends is to you..."

The old man used his eyes to picture the young Helian Min who had faced pressure and walked up to him, a child who, despite being very young, had tried her best to do everything well under his strict guidance.

Honestly, when Helian Min returned to her family home last time, she didn't really get a good look at him. It turns out he's grown up so much, and seems to have no need for her at all.

"make up?"

Helian Min's voice wasn't loud, but the faint self-deprecating tone still made the old man's heart ache.

"Grandpa, I begged you."

When Helian Kang killed his good friend Zhong Ran, Helian Min so helplessly begged the old man to punish Helian Kang as he deserved.
