Zhou Guiying grasped Gu Xiaoyue's hand in return: "I'm leaving, Xiaoyue."
"Grandma, don't go! We won't let you go! My sister and I won't allow you to leave!"
Zhou Guiying didn't want to leave either, but she had already lived long enough; if she lived any longer, she would become an old monster.
Zhou Yue became an ace pilot, Zhou Xiaonian became an outstanding researcher, and even Gu Xiaoyue excelled in her field of expertise.
Her fate, Zhou Yue's fate, and Zhou Xiaonian's fate had long been rewritten.
She possesses countless riches and is surrounded by old friends and new acquaintances.
She has no regrets.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoyue, Xiaonian, Grandma is leaving." Zhou Guiying said, forcing a smile at Zhou Yue. "Thank you, my good child."
Amidst the reluctance of her loved ones, Zhou Guiying breathed her last, ending her journey in this life.
After seeing Zhou Guiying off, Gu Xiaoyue discovered that the rumors circulating online about her bullying Chen Weiwei had been quelled. The latest news was that Chen Weiwei held up her ID card and admitted that she had fabricated the video of Gu Xiaoyue bullying her.
Gu Xiaoyue frowned and asked Lu Ji, "Did you make this?"
Lu Ji smiled wryly: "Do I look like someone with such great abilities?"
If it's not Lu Ji, then it can only be a member of the Gu family.
She went back and asked around before finding out that it was her third cousin who did it.
"Thanks, bro."
"No need for thanks among family. Little girl, if you win another championship next time, consider it a thank you to your brother."
"Don't worry, bro, it's all covered."
Chen Weiwei asked Lu Ji to arrange a meeting with Gu Xiaoyue, but Gu Xiaoyue refused.
"I have nothing to talk about with Chen Weiwei. Lu Ji, if you continue to act as my mouthpiece, I'm going to start my own business."
After dealing with these miscellaneous matters, Gu Xiaoyue truly fell into the grief of losing her loved ones.
Zhou Yue, however, appeared very calm.
But only Gu Yunzheng, her husband, knew that she would quietly shed tears every night.
Zhou Yue lost her parents when she was five years old and struggled to grow up alone amidst malice until Zhou Guiying came along and she regained her mother's love.
Now that Zhou Guiying is gone, it seems that she has lost the love of her parents once again.
How strong can a person be? Strong enough that even if all the misfortunes in the world were to befall one person, they could still grow tenaciously.
How fragile can a person be? So fragile that if she loses someone by her side, she loses the courage to live.
Zhou Yue fell seriously ill, and after recovering, she applied for early retirement.
She is only in her fifties, and she still has much to achieve in her field of expertise. In another ten years or so, she will definitely be an academician.
Everyone felt sorry for her.
Zhou Yue just smiled and said, "I've always felt that my life ended when my ex-husband betrayed me. All those honors and achievements in the years that followed seem to have been lent to me by God. They never truly belonged to me. This feeling became even clearer after my mother, Zhou Guiying, passed away."
“I already have enough, there’s no need to feel sorry for me. Our country is becoming stronger and stronger, and there are more and more outstanding young people, so there will be no generational gap. Besides, I’m only taking early retirement, and I’m still ready to serve if the country needs me.”
Zhou Yue retired, but Gu Yunzheng couldn't. He carried the hopes of too many people. Although the chances of him reaching that position were slim, he could still move forward a little further.
For a family or faction, if the leader takes one more step forward, the entire family or faction can save itself several years of trouble.
"Zhou Yue, wait for me for a few more years. After I retire, we'll go on a trip."
"good."
