Chapter 92: He ruined both his main and alternate accounts, only to receive a cold shoulder from his brother...
After Zhao Shuyi left, she felt uneasy, as she felt it was not appropriate to leave the Gu family of three and Xia Mulan together.
But since she's already at the hospital, Zhao Shuyi definitely needs to focus her attention on her work.
Not long after starting work, Gu Chao was sent to the hospital again.
Zhao Shuyi was shocked to see the bleeding wound on the other person's body. It was almost healed, yet he had still managed to make it like this.
What exactly are they doing?
"What happened?"
Wearing a white coat, Zhao Shuyi strode over to the group and shouted a question, startling even Cao Lijuan. She stared at Zhao Shuyi, speechless for a moment.
"Help him to bed, everyone move aside, don't crowd around!"
The nurses were already used to Zhao Shuyi's behavior at work, and they all helped to shoo people away and support Gu Chao.
Lin Yu stood in the corner, not daring to utter a sound. Zhao Shuyi didn't ask them who was right or wrong, but sent them all outside and had the nurse check Gu Chao's wound.
Seeing the other person's wound reopen, Zhao Shuyi was furious.
She hates people who don't take their bodies seriously.
"What happened? Did your dad hit you, or did you fight with your parents? How did it turn out like this?"
Gu Chao looked somewhat dejected, but still managed a joke, "Sister-in-law, you're really a prophet. My mom forced me to reveal who my boyfriend is, and when I refused, my dad hit me. Then Sister Lin Yu rushed in to help me. They insisted on forcing me to break up with Sister Lin Yu, but I refused, and this is how it ended up."
He pouted, as if he were about to cry, as if Zhao Shuyi would comfort him if he did.
He's not Gu Yan; Zhao Shuyi doesn't have that kind of time to bother with him.
While applying the medicine, Zhao Shuyi deliberately pressed on his wound.
"Ouch! Ouch! Sister-in-law, be gentle!"
He was howling when Cao Lijuan rushed in from outside, "What are you doing? Didn't you hear him crying in pain?"
She felt that Zhao Shuyi was definitely deliberately tormenting her son.
Zhao Shuyi didn't even lift her eyelids, and said, "Who caused him to be like this? Was it me? I told you he needed to rest and recuperate properly, did you all listen to me? With you all messing around like this, his injury will never heal!"
With just one sentence, he shut down all of Cao Lijuan's accusations.
There were other nurses in the ward, and people outside were peeking in from time to time, making Cao Lijuan feel extremely embarrassed.
Actually, Gu Chao's injury was nothing compared to most of the wounds Zhao Shuyi usually saw in the hospital. It was just that he was making a fuss over nothing, which was very annoying to see. So Zhao Shuyi's attitude towards them was not very good.
These people, however, none of them dared to say a word; they were clearly bullies who preyed on the weak.
After treating Gu Chao's injuries, Zhao Shuyi still didn't let him be hospitalized.
Let's not bring their family's jokes to the hospital.
"Take him back, be careful not to touch the wound again."
Zhao Shuyi gave Lin Yu a wink, since they were going to pretend, it wouldn't hurt to act a little more intimate.
Lin Yu quickly understood and stepped forward to help Gu Chao.
"Don't touch my son!" Cao Lijuan was extremely angry, as if her son was some fragile porcelain that anyone who touched him would harm him.
Zhao Shuyi glanced at the other person, and the other person immediately fell silent.
Cao Lijuan felt that this girl was exactly the same as Gu Yan when she got angry; they really were birds of a feather.
She was a little scared.
"Mom, Xiaoyu's parents are high-ranking officials. Would it be beneath you to become in-laws with them?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Lijuan's eyes widened, and even Gu Honggang had an incredulous expression, seemingly never expecting his son to have such good fortune. When he looked at Lin Yu, his gaze had changed.
Zhao Shuyi knew that Gu Chao's plan was likely to succeed, and she felt relieved that they were going back together. She then leisurely continued to go to work.
She felt incredibly ironic. It was already a miracle that Gu Yan didn't get in trouble with such a family.
Gu Yan was probably worried too, so he returned early in the afternoon. However, instead of going straight home, he went to the hospital to find Zhao Shuyi and waited for her to finish get off work so they could go home together.
"Did they cause you any trouble today?"
Zhao Shuyi observed the other person's expression and found that the other person was very calm.
He turned to Zhao Shuyi and said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you with their affairs. I will get Gu Chao to leave as soon as possible so he won't bother you."
“No need,” Zhao Shuyi said. “I’ve already found Gu Chao a partner.”
Gu Yan was clearly shocked.
"How about that? Didn't expect me to be so efficient, did you? Do you recognize this person? Guess who she is."
Gu Yan had no idea, "Is it from the hospital?"
Gu Yan didn't actually know many people in the hospital. Luckily, he had a good memory and keen observation skills, so he could remember some people. As for who could be associated with Gu Chao, he really couldn't think of anyone.
"It's Lin Yu." Zhao Shuyi didn't keep him in suspense any longer and told Gu Yan about her encounter with Lin Yu that morning.
"When I saw her, I felt that she was very suitable for Gu Chao's requirements, as long as Gu Chao was not against second marriages, and it turned out that he really wasn't against it."
Gu Yan thought for a while, "Lin Yu and he are indeed quite suitable."
Even Gu Yan said so, which gave Zhao Shuyi even more confidence in her matchmaking skills.
When they returned home, the house was unusually quiet.
Cao Lijuan was playing with the child with Xia Mulan, and she seemed quite happy. Gu Honggang's expression was also more relaxed than before.
When they returned, Cao Lijuan smiled kindly at them.
It's like Meng Guang taking over Liang Hong's case—the sun has risen in the west!
The two exchanged a glance but said nothing more.
If they had known Lin Yu's identity would be so useful, they would have revealed it much earlier.
After they returned, they first went back to their room to check on Gu Chao. He was lying there peacefully, and when he saw the two of them come over, he sat up with some joy.
"Be careful not to reopen the bandaged wound, or I won't treat you anymore."
Zhao Shuyi had a real headache dealing with this disobedient patient.
He chuckled twice and said, "No, no, I still value my life. I'm perfectly fine. Sister-in-law, the matter is resolved. Thank you."
Zhao Shuyi waved her hand, without asking him if he truly wanted to be with Lin Yu.
She was just a go-between in their relationship; the rest was up to them.
If they don't get along and blame it on her, Zhao Shuyi won't admit it.
She glanced at Gu Chao, then went out to help Gu Yan prepare dinner.
Cao Lijuan pretended to offer to help, and Zhao Shuyi didn't refuse, directly handing over the task of cutting the meat to her.
The other person almost lost their composure, but fortunately, Zhao Shuyi's cooking skills were quite good. Smelling the aroma, she felt that her efforts had not been in vain, but she didn't say anything more about wanting to do more work.
Zhao Shuyi was quite disappointed; she had thought she could squeeze more of the other party's labor out of them.
Over the next two days, the couple were clearly thinking about preparing gifts to visit the Lin family.
Zhao Shuyi only found out later that Gu Chao had not revealed that Lin Yu was a second-time bride.
"You're really bold. If you get caught when you go to visit, won't your parents make a scene? If their parents fight with yours, your relationship will definitely fall apart."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chao's expression immediately turned grim. He knew that this was exactly the kind of thing his parents were capable of doing.
"Then what do you think I should do, sister-in-law? This matter has to be done, whether it works out or not."
"Are you really planning to keep this from your parents? Or are you just planning to keep it a secret for now? What are your thoughts?"
Gu Chao thought for a moment and said, "Never mind, I'll talk to them on our way to visit them. If they really don't want to go, I'll go by myself. I'll tell Sister Lin Yu about this beforehand."
“I’ll go with you,” Zhao Shuyi and Gu Yan said together.
With the two of them there, it would be enough even if Gu Chao's parents didn't show up to support him.
Gu Yan's reputation can sometimes be useful in these kinds of interpersonal interactions, and with Zhao Shuyi being a doctor at a military hospital, the two of them together can command even more respect.
Gu Chao was deeply moved, his eyes filled with tears as he looked at his brother and sister-in-law.
"I knew you guys were the best! Don't worry, I'll definitely repay you in the future. If Lin Yu and I really get together, I'll give you a big red envelope."
Hearing his words, Zhao Shuyi realized that he really cared about Lin Yu. Just as she raised an eyebrow, she saw Gu Chao get a blow to the head.
"Hey bro, what are you doing?"
"If you're not genuinely interested in Lin Yu, then don't go and provoke her."
How do you know I'm not being sincere?
Gu Chao said defiantly, "I think Sister Lin Yu is pretty good, but I have to see if her personality is compatible with mine, and what her family is like."
"I can't just casually offer myself up as a live-in son-in-law, can I?"
Zhao Shuyi couldn't help but laugh, "So you know not to be casual, but you didn't say that at the beginning."
Gu Chao chuckled twice and said, "It was just a moment of panic back then. Now that the problem is temporarily resolved, we still need to think about our future happiness."
Zhao Shuyi agreed with his statement.
No matter what, you can't be a scumbag; that's the bottom line.
"Think carefully, and don't talk nonsense in front of Sister Lin Yu and then shirk your responsibilities. If you dare to deceive her or hurt her, your brother and I will be the first to make you pay."
"I understand. Do you think I'm that kind of person? Don't you know me? If I say I don't like something, I mean it. But if I like something, I'll definitely be serious about it."
Zhao Shuyi thought that what he said was probably not a lie.
After all, his main purpose in coming to Kunming was to escape an arranged marriage, so he must have been really dissatisfied with his blind date in Shanghai.
After tidying up and packing their things, Gu Honggang and his wife prepared to visit the Lin family.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu's parents, eager to show off, announced that Lin Yu had found a boyfriend and was going to bring him home, which put even more pressure on her.
Before they knew it, the day they had agreed to visit arrived. The whole family went, and Gu Yan and Zhao Shuyi both took leave from work.
Seeing how much they valued the family, the Gu couple were very satisfied, feeling that the two of them still cared about their family and were willing to make sacrifices for it. They couldn't hide their pride.
Gu Yan and Zhao Shuyi did not spoil their pleasant mood, since she guessed that the other party would probably turn back before even reaching the Lin family.
As expected, when they arrived on the way, Gu Chao didn't give his parents any warning and went straight to the point.
"Oh right, there's something I forgot to tell my parents: Sister Lin Yu was married before."
"What?!" The couple screamed in unison, startling passersby who all turned to look.
Zhao Shuyi and the other person both silently stepped back a little.
That kid is really brave.
Gu Chao blinked, looking completely innocent, and asked, "What's wrong? You don't really think your son can just casually marry the daughter of some important person, do you?"
"Besides, Sister Lin Yu has already divorced that person, and they don't have any children together."
The couple was furious at the way their parents were making such a fuss over the fact that they were just marrying a divorced woman.
Of course, they thought their son was perfect in every way, and it wouldn't be surprising if any girl from a good family fell for him. But after Gu Chao pointed it out, they seemed to wake up from a dream.
If you consider your own family's circumstances, don't you think other families do the same?
No wonder they thought the other person was perfect in every way except for the fact that their homes were too far apart—it was strangely perfect.
So that's how it is.
Seeing Gu Honggang's exasperated state, Zhao Shuyi suddenly understood why Gu Yan had kindly helped the couple carry their belongings.
If Gu Yan hadn't helped them carry it, those things would probably have been smashed.
"Go back! All of you, go back! No one is allowed to go to the Lin family today!"
Gu Chao frowned and looked at the other person, "Dad, what are you doing? Who are the Lin family? You dare to run them away? Do you want your son to live too long?"
Cao Lijuan said, "No matter what kind of family he comes from, he can't force someone to marry his daughter, can he?"
"I wasn't forced, I did it voluntarily! Besides, she'll definitely be a help to me in the future."
Upon hearing this, the couple fell silent.
The other family is indeed well-off, far better than ours. However, their activities are limited to Shanghai, while the Lin family's activities are limited to Kunming. Even if they wanted the Lin family to help, it would be difficult for them to reach them.
Lin Yu is a capable and young woman, and they wouldn't normally care about this little problem. But the fact that she's divorced makes them a laughingstock.
Unfortunately, Gu Chao didn't understand their good intentions and acted as if no one could stop him from going to the Lin family today, making the couple feel like they were about to vomit blood.
“If you dare to go today, you will no longer be a member of the Gu family. Think it through!” Gu Honggang himself cared a lot about his Gu family identity and felt that his two sons cared about it too.
"I already told you, I've had physical contact with him. If I don't go, Lin Yu's family will definitely sue me for having an affair. Dad, do you really want me to go to jail?"
"Besides, I really like Sister Lin Yu. Are my parents going to take away my happiness too?"
As Zhao Shuyi listened to Gu Chao's accusations, she knew that he was probably telling the truth.
He might really be under a lot of pressure from his parents.
From childhood to adulthood, Gu Yan received only indifference and disregard from this couple.
Gu Chao, however, received excessive love and suffocating constraints, so neither of the brothers was happy in this family.
The couple, however, were unaware that as long as Gu Yan grew up, they were doing right by him. They felt that since they had given all their love to Gu Chao, Gu Chao should be grateful to them. Little did they know that neither of their children could truly appreciate them.
As expected, Gu Honggang was only stunned for a moment before quickly realizing that his own pride was more important than his son's happiness.
"I can agree to anything else, but not this one! If you dare to go against your mother and me, then don't acknowledge us as family anymore!"
Gu Chao glanced at his parents, then turned and walked away.
Cao Lijuan was about to give chase when Gu Honggang shouted at her.
"You're not allowed to go! You've spoiled him!"
Cao Lijuan looked at her son's retreating figure with concern and said, "How can you blame me? Isn't my son your son too?"
"If I say you can't go, then you can't go!"
Gu Yan completely ignored Gu Honggang's warning and followed them directly.
Zhao Shuyi, of course, wouldn't stay to watch the couple argue; she went with Gu Yan instead.
So when they arrived at the Lin family's house, there were only the three of them.
Lin Yu was standing at the entrance of the family compound waiting for them.
Following the pre-arranged explanation, Gu Chao stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, my parents had to be called back to Shanghai for some very important business, so I had to ask my brother and sister-in-law to come with me today."
Lin Yu knew their situation, and when she heard Gu Chao talking nonsense with a straight face, she couldn't help but laugh. She also joined in the act, saying, "It's okay, it's good that you're here."
Gu Chao said with a pitiful look on his face, "Thank you, I will definitely treat you well in the future."
The two of them were being all lovey-dovey, and the people who had come out of the residential compound to watch the commotion were all very surprised to see that Lin Yu's partner was such a young and handsome man.
Because in many people's eyes, divorced women are particularly cheap, and no man would want to marry them without a purpose.
If that's true, then there must be something wrong with this man.
However, the man was handsome, and the man and woman he brought with him both had extraordinary bearing. The man was also wearing a military uniform, so he was clearly not an ordinary person. Everyone was hesitant to approach and ask about the situation, and could only watch helplessly as Lin Yu led them back to the Lin family.
At that time, Lin's parents were preparing a meal at home. Lin Yu's uncle, cousin, and cousin's wife were also there. The group of people almost filled the entire living room.
If Lin Yu hadn't given them a heads-up beforehand, they might have been really scared.
Fortunately, everyone came prepared and wasn't really scared.
Upon learning that Gu Chao's parents had suddenly returned to Shanghai for some business, the Lin family members had various expressions, and they must have had some thoughts about it.
But who is Gu Chao? He's a tough guy; there's no topic he can't talk to.
Unexpectedly, he was so adamant. He took out his savings book and placed it in front of the Lin family, saying, "This is my sincerity! I will hand over all my assets to Lin Yu and am willing to become the Lin family's son-in-law. I only have one request: I will stay at home to cook, do laundry, and take care of the children. Don't make me go out to work. I don't want to work. Also, you must protect me."
His words stunned not only the Lin family, but even Zhao Shuyi and Gu Yan had strange expressions on their faces.
This younger brother is too straightforward. There's no need to be so clear about some things so quickly. The two families haven't even had a proper chat yet. Didn't we say we should get to know each other better first?
Why have they already handed over the betrothal gifts?
Just as Zhao Shuyi was in a daze, she saw Lin Yu take the passbook directly.
"I agree! Everyone here is a witness. When are we getting married?"
Zhao Shuyi's mouth was wide open, almost unable to close.
Has she lost a very important memory? How come I can't understand it at all?
She reached for Gu Yan's hand, and Gu Yan held it tightly. "It's alright, leave it to him to handle. He has his own ideas."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shuyi didn't say much, leaving it to the other family's decision.
Lin's father was a very dignified man. He had probably been an official for a long time, and his aura of authority was impossible to hide.
At first, he seemed to be deliberately amiable, which made him look rather terrifying. But after hearing Gu Chao's words, he probably became suspicious of his intentions and naturally revealed the aura of a superior.
Zhao Shuyi couldn't help but swallow, but Gu Chao still looked dazed and didn't back down at all.
Mr. Lin was already starting to admire him. "You want to come and be our son-in-law? Do your parents know? Do they agree?"
Gu Chao chuckled twice and said, "My older brother is here, isn't he? An elder brother is like a father, so his agreement is the same."
The other party looked at Gu Yan, and their imposing manner weakened slightly.
Of course, they weren't afraid of Gu Yan; it's just that they had met Gu Yan before and would value soldiers more, so they weren't willing to use their power to intimidate others.
"Can Deputy Regiment Commander Gu make the decision on this matter?"
Gu Yan said, "I think Gu Chao is an adult and can make his own decisions. As long as he doesn't do anything immoral, I will support him if he encounters any difficulties. But if he does something immoral, you can handle it however you want, and I definitely won't interfere."
"Brother! Why do you think of me like that?" Gu Chao pretended to be very angry.
Gu Yan ignored him and continued to look at Lin's father.
Lin's father said, "Okay, I understand what you mean."
He glanced at Gu Chao and said with a menacing air, "Come to the study with me, let's have a talk."
Gu Chao got up and obediently followed the other person into the study.
Zhao Shuyi felt that this matter might actually work out today; probably no one could resist Gu Chao's sharp tongue.
It's unclear what the two talked about inside, but when they came out, Lin's father directly told Lin Yu and Gu Chao to register.
When Gu Chao ran away from home, he stole his own household registration book. When the Gu family couple came over, they hadn't even thought about it. They actually went straight to get their marriage certificate, which Zhao Shuyi found incredibly surreal.
Of course, even though it was hard to believe, the two of them still got married.
Once they got their marriage certificate back, they became a family.
Zhao Shuyi couldn't help but whisper in Gu Yan's ear, "Things seem to have gotten out of hand. What if your dad and Aunt Cao try to assassinate me?"
Gu Yan said with a straight face, "What does this have to do with you? You don't have the ability to influence Gu Chao. Let him handle it himself. We'll go back to the military family compound for the next couple of days and stop him from bothering you."
Zhao Shuyi shook her head, "Let's not. If they can't find me in the family compound, they can go to the hospital to look for me. Let's not make things too ugly."
Gu Yan thought about it and realized that made sense.
"Then you should be careful. If they dare to lay a hand on you or do anything to make you uncomfortable, you should run if you need to, and fight back if you need to. Don't give them any face."
Zhao Shuyi's eyes crinkled into a smile; she had never seen a man protect her like Gu Yan.
Who told that couple to be so inhumane? They wouldn't even listen to their own son. It shows how terrible they are as parents.
After becoming family, the Lin family members were noticeably more welcoming to them, and even Zhao Shuyi and her companion felt their warmth.
As they were about to leave, everyone gave them many gifts. Zhao Shuyi and her companion couldn't refuse their hospitality and had no choice but to take the gifts with them.
Once outside, Lin Yu followed them back. Zhao Shuyi stood next to Gu Yan, her gaze involuntarily drifting towards the two of them.
Gu Yan found his wife's curious expression adorable and didn't follow her lead to ask about the two of them. However, after his wife pinched his waist, he finally turned to the two and asked, "What are your plans now? Are you going back with us, or what?"
Gu Chao looked at Lin Yu and said, "I have to go back. I have to wait for my parents to leave before I go to your place."
Lin Yu said casually, "Whatever, it's up to you."
Watching their interaction, Zhao Shuyi couldn't help but frown. They didn't look like a newlywed couple at all; it was more like when she and Gu Yan got married, as if they were just getting married for the sake of getting married.
Could it be what she's thinking?
Soon after Lin Yu left, Zhao Shuyi began to question Gu Chao.
"We just want to give it a try. I don't want to get married, but she's a great marriage prospect, and I'm willing to marry her. As for having children, we'll think about that later. Maybe one day we'll realize we want a child." Gu Chao said earnestly.
Gu Yan's expression was clearly not good, but perhaps he was thinking about his own situation with Zhao Shuyi. He didn't blame her, but said, "You made the decision yourself, so you can take responsibility for it."
Gu Chao was extremely surprised, never expecting his brother to say that. He thought his brother would scold him: "Brother, don't you think I'm being ridiculous?"
"You are responsible for your own affairs; you are not a child anymore."
Hearing this, Gu Chao was visibly pleased. It was clear that he wanted others to respect him and not control him in everything.
He must have his own reasons for doing this, rather than being told that something is wrong or bad just because he did something.
He was clearly very moved.
"Alright, go back now, let's see how you explain this to your parents."
Gu Chao said, "I'll just tell them directly, we're already married, what can they do to me? Do they expect me to get a divorce and become a divorcee too?"
Gu Yan sneered, "That's not necessarily true. They might think that it's a loss of value for a woman to remarry, but it's no big deal for a man to remarry. You can try it if you don't believe me."
"Even if they really think that way, I won't listen to them. At worst, they can just not let me go back to my mother's house. I will never go back and let my mother control me."
When they returned to the military hospital's family compound, it was already afternoon and many people were coming and going. From afar, they saw Gu's parents standing anxiously at the entrance of the compound.
If Zhao Shuyi didn't know the inside story, she would still think their love for their son was incredibly touching.
But it is precisely because I know their character that I am somewhat at a loss for words to describe them.
Perhaps there is no truly evil person in this world; it's just that everyone has their own perspective.
Having one's own stance is fine, but trying to impose one's own stance on others is unacceptable. Clearly, they are such people.
The couple looked very unhappy when they saw the three of them return.
"Where did you go?" Gu Honggang asked coldly, without calling out, and it was unclear who he was asking.
The three of them remained silent, as if by unspoken agreement.
In the end, Gu Chao stepped forward and said, "Dad, I'm getting married."
Gu Honggang stared at him with a stern face, looking as if he wanted to devour his son alive.
Gu Chao, however, was not afraid at all. He stood in front of his father and said very seriously, "I am already married. I just got my marriage certificate today."
"Let me see it." Gu Honggang clearly didn't believe him.
Gu Chao took out the marriage certificate and handed it to the couple, saying, "Even if you tear it up, it won't make a difference. We've already registered, and we can just reissue it later."
"Xiao Chao, do you hate your parents that much that you want to go against them? What have we done to wrong you?"
Cao Lijuan was clearly hurt by his actions, and her tone even carried a hint of sorrow.
"Mom and Dad, I told you a long time ago not to pressure me. I just want to find someone I like and live a simple and peaceful life."
“You keep pressuring me, you keep pressuring me. I’ve even come all the way to Kunming, but you still won’t let me go. I have no choice but to do things my own way.”
"I'm sorry to have disappointed you."
He bowed deeply to the couple, showing that he deeply recognized his mistake, but also that he was determined never to change.
Zhao Shuyi almost burst out laughing, but she held it in. If she dared to laugh now, the couple might really kill her with their eyes.
Fortunately, they don't have the time or inclination to deal with Zhao Shuyi right now.
Gu Honggang was furious. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Good, good, you're a good man! I don't have a son like you anymore!"
He strode away after saying that, and Cao Lijuan panicked when she saw this, and hurriedly called out, "Old Gu!"
But the other person didn't care about her and just kept moving forward.
Cao Lijuan quickly glared at her son and chased after him. She knew that now she could only rely on her husband, not her son.
Seeing that Gu Chao didn't react, Zhao Shuyi subconsciously exchanged a glance with Gu Yan before asking, "Will they come back?"
Gu Chao said, "No, unless I go and apologize to them."
But judging from his words, he clearly wasn't going to apologize to the two of them.
"They've ruined both their main and alt accounts, are they going to create new ones?"
Gu Chao turned to Zhao Shuyi and asked, "Sister-in-law, what did you mean by 'big number' and 'small number'?"
Zhao Shuyi pursed her lips. She was so excited about the gossip that she didn't notice what she had said. She laughed and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I was just talking nonsense."
The three of them quickly returned home.
Just as Gu Chao had predicted, the Gu couple never returned after leaving, as if they had truly gone back to Shanghai.
Zhao Shuyi asked Gu Yan, and Gu Yan gave an affirmative answer.
He was always worried about the couple, so naturally he kept an eye on their situation.
Ying Qichao, on the other hand, seemed rather uncomfortable.
“Your dad and I have been friends for so many years. I just told him a few truths, and he made a fuss about it. He didn’t even tell me he was going back. It seems our friendship has faded. We’re just not meant to be.”
Hearing his sigh, Zhao Shuyi knew that he must also be aware of Gu Yan's situation in the Gu family back then.
He may have thought it was someone else's family matter before, and even if he had some grievances, he didn't say anything. Later, he realized that he was very wrong. Not only did he indulge his friend, but he also hurt the child.
Now that his friendship with his friend has fallen out, the damage to the child is irreversible. If he had known this earlier, he would have fought with Gu Honggang sooner and given him a good beating, which might have brought the other man to his senses.
However, it's too late to say anything now. Fortunately, Gu Yan did not go astray because of the other party's outrageous teachings.
He thought Gu Chao was a good kid, and couldn't help but sigh that Gu Honggang was really lucky.
Although Zhao Shuyi and the other person did not know what he was thinking, they could see that he was dissatisfied with Gu Honggang.
The two men didn't react; in their view, it was normal for Ying Qichao to think this way.
After the Gu couple left, their lives returned to normal, and Gu Chao moved to the school dormitory with Lin Yu.
Zhao Shuyi and her companion went to deliver the gifts and bought him some daily necessities.
The school dormitory wasn't small; some even had a bedroom and a living room. Lin Yu had decorated it very warmly, and they would probably be very happy living there.
Looking at the place where he would be living from now on, Gu Chao sighed.
“I’m going to live here in the future, it’s great! The only thing I’ll miss is the food you cook, sister-in-law.”
"Sister-in-law, you promised to teach me how to cook!"
Zhao Shuyi raised an eyebrow and said, "I never promised to teach you; that's your brother's job."
Gu Chao looked longingly at his brother, only to receive a cold look in return.
