Chapter 218 Relieved

Feeling heavy-hearted, Gu Yanchi drove Lin Du to see his father.

No one knows how much pain he is in now. He feels that he has failed to protect Lin Du.

Lin Du sighed and patted Gu Xinchi's arm: "I'm fine, don't be so nervous, it makes me nervous too."

Gu Yanyi raised the corner of his mouth with difficulty and rubbed Lin Du's cheek: "Okay."

Arriving at Gu's house, Lin Du subconsciously clenched his fists.

Ten years later, he returned to this devastated place.

"Wife, don't be afraid." Gu Nichi took Lin Du's hand and applied a little force, trying to give him some strength.

Lin Du wanted to pull his hand away, after all, he was afraid that it would be bad if Gu Helin saw it.

But Gu Yingchi gave him a firm look that didn't allow him to refuse.

Gu Helin looked at the person he hadn't seen for ten years, and his heart was full of complicated feelings.

He sighed softly, perhaps everything was God's will.

Who could have expected that they would meet again and choose to be together again.

"I want to talk to Lin Du alone."

"No." Gu Yinchi did not hesitate for a moment. There was no way he would let Lin Du face it alone.

Gu Helin frowned slightly: "I won't hurt him, you don't have to be so nervous."

Lin Du didn't dare to look Gu Helin in the eye. He pushed Gu Yinchi and motioned him to go out and wait for him.

Gu Nichi frowned and said, "No."

"It's okay." Although he was obviously scared to death, Lin Du still patiently comforted Gu Jingchi.

He knew how much Gu Xichi wanted to be with him, and he understood what he was thinking.

"I'll wait for you outside, right outside. I'm not going anywhere." Gu Nichi stroked Lin Du's hand, his heart aching.

Lin Du curled his lips and said, "Go ahead."

Gu Yanchi looked back every few steps; his anxiety had reached its peak.

Gu Helin saw all of this. He could see how much Gu Xinchi relied on Lin Du. It seemed that only Lin Du could soothe his violent temper.

Gu Helin and Lin Du were the only two people left in the huge living room, just like ten years ago.

"Please sit down." Gu Helin could see Lin Du's reservedness. He tried hard to control his tone, hoping that it would not sound too cold.

Facing Gu Helin, it was impossible for Lin Du not to be afraid.

Gu Helin sighed lightly. In ten years, this child seemed to have changed a lot, yet seemed to have remained the same.

Gu Helin couldn't suppress the complicated feelings in his heart when he thought that the person in front of him once carried the blood of their Gu family.

If he had done a thorough investigation, perhaps he and Gu Xinchi would not have missed each other for so many years, and their children would not have...

The past was too painful to recall. Gu Helin stood up and Lin Du became nervous instantly.

"Don't be afraid." Gu Helin soothed, "Lin Du, I apologize to you for what happened that year."

"Mother Gu Nichi passed away early. He was my only hope. I put all my energy into him."

"When I found out about what happened between you, I didn't investigate it right away, but instead put the blame on you."

"To be honest, I hated you so much at that time that I attacked you."

Gu Helin sighed: "At that time I didn't know you had already..."

"I know there's no point in apologizing afterwards, but I still want to apologize to you in person."

"Child, you don't have to forgive me, but please don't hold a grudge against Gu Yanchi because I can see that he really loves you."

Lin Du clutched the sofa beneath him, feeling heavy-hearted.

It seems a bit fake to say that I can forgive, but it also seems meaningless to say that I can't forgive.

What is lost can never be regained.

"My child, you should know Gu Yanchi very well. I think you should be able to feel his love for you."

"What he lacked since childhood was companionship. Many times he may not know how to love someone, so if he does something wrong in the future, please forgive him."

Lin Du pursed his lips. It was true that Gu Yanchi was like that in the past, but now he has changed a lot and he has seen it all.

"He's...very nice to me."

Gu Helin nodded with relief: "Indeed, otherwise he wouldn't have put all his assets under your name."

Lin Du was stunned: "I... I don't know, and I don't want it either."

Gu Helin walked closer and wanted to pat Lin Du on the shoulder, but he instinctively shrank back.

Gu Helin's hands froze in the air, the smile on his face faded, leaving only a trace of loneliness.

"Child, since he gave it to you, you should accept it and regard it as a compensation for your loss."

"Although I know that money can't make up for what you've lost, but...but if it doesn't make up for it, we will also feel uneasy."

"Don't worry, I know you're not after his money, and I won't have any doubts about it."

"I'm old, I just hope you can go on well."

Lin Du raised his eyes suddenly, then slowly lowered them.

Gu Helin bowed deeply to Lin Du and said, "My child, please forgive the stupidity of a father."

Lin Du was startled and stood up suddenly. He wanted to help Gu Helin up, but he was afraid.

But seeing that Gu Helin didn't get up, he had no choice but to step forward and help him up.

Gu Helin patted Lin Du on the shoulder and said, "Bless you all."

Lin Du's nose felt sore and he had an urge to cry, but he felt that crying was embarrassing.

Gu Nichi stood outside the door waiting anxiously. He kept smoking and was in a state of agitation.

The door was opened, and Gu Yanchi hugged Lin Du into his arms: "Wife, are you okay?"

Lin Du pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly and pushed Gu Jinchi: "It's okay."

Gu Helin walked up to Gu Xinchi and said, "Go back and treat Lin Du well in the future."

Gu Xinchi's heart shuddered and he held Lin Du's hand tightly.

On the way back, Lin Du remained silent and Gu Xinchi kept stealing glances at him.

"Disappointing."

"My wife, I'm here." Gu Nichi looked at Lin Du nervously.

"Why do you have to put all your assets under my name? I...I'm not with you for your money." Lin Du twisted his thumbs together and couldn't help but sigh.

"My dad told you?" Gu Nichi gripped the steering wheel tightly, "But I just want to give it to you. I want to give you everything. Even so, I still feel it's not enough."

Lin Du bit his lip. He could feel that Gu Shichi was very sad.

Not wanting to suppress her too much, Lin Du curled his lips and smiled: "I will be satisfied if you don't do anything mean to me in the future."

"For example?" Gu Yinchi parked the car on the side of the road and took Lin Du's hand.

"Isn't what I said clear enough?" Lin Du pushed him away.

Gu Yinchi adjusted the seat back, carried Lin Du over and made him sit astride his lap.

Lin Du was still in shock and didn't know how he was carried here by him: "Look, you're here again. I just finished talking to you and you got sick."

Gu Nichi held Lin Du's waist and leaned back in the chair: "I didn't agree to what you said."

"But you just said you would make it up to me, and now you're not keeping your word." Lin Du was not convinced. This man never told the truth.

"Am I not making up for it now?" Gu Nichi held Lin Du's face and kissed the corner of his mouth.
