But it turns out that this is not the case...
It turns out that his father would also take care of him, coax him, and teach him by example step by step, passing on his character and talents to his children.
Gu Lingyang's eyes darkened.
"Father once left something for you..."
Gu Chengye was immersed in memories of the past. "We all thought you were a 'stillborn'. In the first few years, my father would prepare a copy for you of everything he bought for me. Those items were burned... Later, he used his identity as the second young master of the Gu family to donate to many foundations."
"I know that difficult birth has always been a knot in your father's heart that he has never been able to untie. He has always regretted that he couldn't let you and mother survive, and that he couldn't let you see the world properly."
Gu Lingyang never knew these secrets.
His heartstrings seemed to be trembling with something, and through these few words, he pieced together a mountain called father.
"You were stolen away by accident. I monopolized my father's love for so many years, but you never enjoyed it."
This time, Gu Chengye forced himself to meet Gu Lingyang's gaze.
All the previous conflicts between them seemed to have melted away in this confession.
Gu Chengye gradually spoke out, "You haven't had an easy time these past few years. Living in the hands of a madman like Li Jianbin, you've suffered a lot."
Needless to say, a madman like Li Jianbin, how could he possibly treat Gu Lingyang as his own son?
The material conditions may be sufficient, but the Gu family can also provide these!
"In the past, I was blinded by hatred, which was a bit too extreme..."
Gu Chengye was silent for a long time before he finally spoke these words. He looked at Gu Lingyang sincerely, but his voice couldn't help but tremble. "You are a member of the Gu family, my... younger brother. It's only natural that you have a share in the Gu family. Before... I was wrong."
These words almost exhausted all of Gu Chengye's courage.
Gu Lingyang looked at him quietly, his cold eyes seemed a little heavy at this moment.
He opened his thin lips slightly, and finally said lightly, "...It's all over."
The past is all gone, like a passing cloud.
"Don't be obsessed with these things. Living in the present is the most important thing."
I don’t know when it started to snow, and tiny snowflakes floated on Gu Lingyang’s shoulders. He looked up at the gray sky, and his nose could smell the faint fragrance of white chrysanthemums from the cold air.
Subconsciously, he turned his gaze to Ning Yichu.
Ning Yichu was helping the three children make some snowballs with tools. She had been keeping an eye on Gu Lingyang all the time, and when she met the man's gaze and a look of relief, her heart moved.
It seems that the two brothers have reached an agreement.
The atmosphere was still a little stiff and uncomfortable, but then again, they were enemies before, but now they were family again...
In addition, they are two grown men who don't easily say corny or sentimental words, which makes the atmosphere even more awkward.
Seeing this, Ning Yichu blinked at Gu Lingyang, smiled slightly, and walked over there with the three treasures.
"A Ling, come hold Ning Ning for a while. The little one's paws are almost frozen, but he still wants to play."
Gu Lingyang moved, bent down and grabbed a small dumpling, "Hmm."
"Daddy...hold me."
Doudou also opened his little arms.
Taking advantage of the gap between Gu Lingyang and the three children, Ning Yichu looked at Gu Chengye, his eyes flashing, "Mr. Gu... I testified for Ning Qingwan and the others in court before because they kidnapped my Ningning. I had no choice... I hope you can forgive me."
Gu Chengye shook his head. He was no longer obsessed with these things.
He smiled bitterly and said, "You should forgive me..."
The corner of his eye caught sight of the happy scene of their family of five, and the envy in his eyes deepened.
He had never had a family before, and now after Gu Sinan's death, he was all alone.
"Don't think too much. The grudges and hatreds of the previous generation are not something we can control." Ning Yichu advised.
She exchanged glances with Gu Lingyang and said, "We're here with some children to pay respect to their grandfather today. We have to go down the mountain now. Will you come with us?"
"No, I'll stay here for a while."
"Okay."
Ning Yichu held Chen Bao's hand, and Gu Chengye moved aside to make room.
As he passed by Gu Chengye, Gu Lingyang said, "The Gu family... is still waiting to flourish in your hands."
Gu Chengye paused and subconsciously looked up at Gu Lingyang, only to see that he had already left calmly with the two children in his arms.
To carry forward?
Gu Lingyang, still believe in him?
Gu Chengye couldn't explain where the warmth in his heart came from. The Gu family was saved by Gu Lingyang. In fact, ever since Gu Lingyang knew his life experience, he had never been against him. Instead, he helped him in every way.
Gu family...
They are family, brothers, and one who shares honor and disgrace.
An indescribable wonderful feeling surged into Gu Chengye's heart.
He quietly watched the backs of the five-member family leaving, unable to recover for a long time.
…
The days were peaceful for a while.
However, this tranquility was limited to Ning Yichu and Gu Lingyang.
Ning Chiming was going crazy, calling Ning Yichu three times in a row, "Chuchu, can't you really lock Ning Qingwan up?!"
Ning Yichu didn't have to think twice before seeing that Ning Chiming, who had always been filial and respectful to his elders, could say such words. He knew that it must be Ning Qingwan who had taken action against the Ning family.
Look, they don’t even use the generational titles, just call people by their full names.
