285: Go do something more meaningful!
If Gu Jun hadn't accompanied Xu Yao to see the aurora, he wouldn't have met Jason in Finland.
The brothers who had never met each other met again in a foreign country 25 years later. Perhaps it was God's arrangement, and Xu Yao happened to be a witness.
After a moment's silence, Xu Yao asked where Gu Jun was.
"I'm just outside your community."
Thinking that Gu Jun's identity had just been exposed to the public, Xu Yao wore a mask before going out.
Gu Jun's car was parked opposite the community. It was the same car they had just bought before their divorce. Xu Yao recognized it at a glance.
After opening the car door and sitting in the passenger seat, Xu Yao tried to keep her tone calm: "Why did you suddenly think of taking a DNA test?"
If Gu Jun wanted to get tested, he could have done it when Jason first returned to South City. He didn't do it then because he didn't want to. For Gu Jun, his biological mother, Fu Hong, was already a foregone conclusion, and there was no need for him and Jason to do a DNA test.
Something must have happened to make Gu Jun change his mind.
Could it be that Fu Hong is causing trouble again?
After the divorce, the two did not share any information. Many of Xu Yao's decisions were public, so Gu Jun could see them. However, Xu Yao was unaware of Gu Jun's movements during this period.
The fact that Jason is Gu Jun's younger brother with the same father and mother should be a big shock to Gu Jun. This is also the reason why Xu Yao is willing to go out to see Gu Jun tonight - except for her, Gu Jun probably can't find anyone else to talk to about this matter.
Gu Jun briefly explained the whole process, including the hidden story behind the man's excuse for Fu Hong's "cheating" that year. Gu Jun told Xu Yao everything.
Xu Yao didn't expect that Gu Jun would dig out the man behind Fu Hong so quickly.
The man returned to China with "Black Sea" and Gu Jun just announced his identity. This move probably stunned the man. He didn't know how to deal with Gu Jun, so he directly threw out a bombshell.
This timing is too much of a coincidence.
"Do you know that man will be returning home soon?"
Xu Yao suspected that everything was under Gu Jun's control.
Gu Jun didn't deny it either. "Jason said he wanted to have 'Black Sea' sent back to China, so I guessed it was possible. I've imagined countless times what kind of man Fu Hong would abandon her husband and children for, but when I actually saw her, I found it was no different."
Gu Jun hated Fu Hong and also hated Fu Hong's "adulterer".
Fu Hong was evil for abandoning her husband and children, and the adulterer wanted to get involved with her even though he knew she was a married woman. Gu Jun's family was destroyed because of both of them, and no one is innocent!
For a long time, Fu Hong's adulterer was even Gu Jun's imaginary enemy.
Especially when Gu Jun discovered that this "adulterer" was very mysterious, he wanted to fight with him even more.
It turned out that the other party was so ordinary.
It was so ordinary that the resentment that Gu Jun had accumulated was like a punch on cotton.
Xu Yao thought for a moment, "Maybe it's not that the other person isn't capable, it's that you're just standing at a different level now. Ordinary capable people are no longer in your sight. If you feel those people are no longer worth your time, you can do something more meaningful."
What is more meaningful?
What Gu Jun said in his speech at the school was that Huahu’s research direction and the donation of laboratories to the school are all very meaningful things.
Even if he doesn't do any cutting-edge research or public welfare projects, and just wants to make Huahu bigger and stronger, isn't that better than competing with Fu Hong's adulterer?
"Comparing yourself to others is only lowering your standards!"
A man who interferes in other people's marriage has a bad character even if he has some achievements!
Xu Yao looked down on such people and felt that such people were not worth Gu Jun's time.
After Xu Yao finished speaking, the carriage was silent for a long time.
Gu Jun suddenly asked Xu Yao: "Do you still blame me?"
When Xu Qinghua's gambling scandal came to light, Gu Jun thought Xu Yao would be devastated, but unexpectedly, Xu Yao quickly recovered, allowing Gu Jun to once again witness Xu Yao's extraordinary healing power.
If Xu Yao can forgive Xu Qinghua, will he also be forgiven by Xu Yao?
Xu Yao turned to look at Gu Jun. "To be honest, I was also very painful at the beginning, but real life won't allow me to be decadent for too long. People who do nothing will fall into emotional torture. As busy as I am, I have to schedule time for emotional torture. I divorced because our marriage was built on lies, and I don't have the confidence to go on with you."
Apart from the deception, Gu Jun was really good to her. When she thought of Gu Jun, she felt heartache rather than hatred.
Gu Jun understood what Xu Yao meant.
Love is not on Xu Yao's agenda right now. She has no time to hate, nor to love.
"Thank you for listening to me. It's getting late. You should go back and rest."
Gu Jun didn't talk about love anymore. He was very satisfied that he could still chat with Xu Yao like this after the divorce. Moreover, Xu Yao's words were not just comfort to him, he did gain something.
Xu Yao put on a mask and got out of the car, waved to Gu Jun, and slowly disappeared from Gu Jun's sight.
Gu Jun's heart became very calm.
Those turbulent emotions have been tamed by Gu Jun.
The turbulent rapids hurts others and yourself, while the tranquil lake is more tolerant. Loving someone does not mean breaking their wings and keeping them by your side. Watching them soar into the wind and waves is also a kind of broad-mindedness!
…
The next morning, Gu Jun went to see Jason with the test report.
Jason's hands were shaking as he opened the test report.
“I, I…”
"You are the child of the Gu family and my biological brother."
Gu Jun asked Jason if he would like to go to the cemetery.
"Grandpa and grandma don't even know you exist."
Gu Wenting’s death was really not worth it.
Gu Jun didn't think this way just because Jason was a child of the Gu family; he had always thought this way. Someone who had the courage to die lacked the courage to live. Love isn't everything to a person. Gu Wenting wasn't just Fu Hong's husband, but also Gu Haishan's son and Gu Jun's father. Because Fu Hong was gone, Gu Wenting forgot all about his other identities and ended his life so easily—Gu Wenting wasn't even as open-minded as Xu Yao!
So Gu Jun only wanted to take Jason to visit his grandparents’ graves, and Gu Wenting’s visit was just a side trip.
“I’ll go!”
Jason also needs this ritual recognition of identity transformation.
Gu Jun took Jason to the cemetery, but Jason was still not satisfied and wanted to go to the old house where Gu Jun and Gu Haishan lived.
"If I hadn't been taken away, this would be where I grew up, right?"
Jason used to think of his home as the townhouse, the room where he could paint, and the view from the window.
Now he felt that "home" was not actually a fixed residence. Home was where the family was. It was a pity that he had not been able to live with other members of the Gu family.
When Gu Jun brought Jason to the old house, Jason was stunned for a long time.
"The moment you appeared in front of me, I knew you were my brother. It's just that I didn't know we had the same father and mother before. You asked me how I knew that, but I didn't answer you at the time, and you never asked again after that."
Jason turned to Gu Jun and asked, "Aren't you curious at all?"
