Gu Xiuyuan rushed over and hugged Ji Shuyu in his arms.
The thunder was so loud that the glass was vibrating and the cars downstairs also sounded the alarm due to the huge thunder.
Gu Xiuyuan hugged her and stroked the back of her head soothingly.
"Xiaoyu, don't be afraid..."
He hugged her tightly with heartache, but when he lowered his eyes, he saw her calm and puzzled look, as if saying: What are you doing?
Gu Xiuyuan's body stiffened.
Ji Shuyu pushed him away and took a step back.
Thunder roared again outside the window, but she didn't react at all.
She used to be so afraid of the sound of thunder and rain, but now she didn't even frown when faced with such a loud noise.
Gu Xiuyuan's eyebrows trembled, as if he was struck by lightning, and even his reaction was slowed down by a few beats.
"It's thundering, don't be so nervous."
She did not show any deliberate alienation, and seemed to have some intention of comforting him.
Gu Xiuyuan leaned against the window to steady himself, a wry smile on his lips.
When she is afraid, you don't.
Now, she no longer needs you...
…
Gu Xiuyuan's original room was expanded into Ji Shu's bedroom, and he found a guest room to stay in.
This guest bedroom is very small, but it has a corner terrace, and Xiaoyu's window can be seen from the balcony.
The noisy thunder and rain covered everything, but he felt as if he could hear their playful laughter.
Lighting a cigarette, he leaned against the window, looking at it with a faint smile on his lips.
Knock knock——
There was a knock on the door. He knew it was his grandmother, so he put out his cigarette and went forward to open the door.
The old man's eyes were red, and it was obvious that he had been crying again.
"grandmother."
Bai Shulan felt so distressed when she saw her grandson looking so thin and haggard.
The two people she loved most in her life were her two children, but the two children who loved each other so much were now like strangers.
He said at the beginning that Qi Wei could not accept Xia Mei's death, but she didn't believe it.
Something must have happened!
"Xiuyuan, tell grandma the truth, what happened to you?" The old lady held her grandson's hand.
He hadn't come often in the past few days, but she could see how haggard and sad he looked every time he came.
She often saw him in a daze, but when she asked him, he refused to say anything.
"Grandma, it's nothing."
"You and Xiaoyu are like this, and you call it okay?"
"Grandma, this is pretty good." He comforted his grandmother with a smile.
How many people, after breaking up, wish the other person bad luck or even death.
It’s really nice that they can still eat under the same roof.
"Are you really planning to do this?" Mrs. Lai was angry and anxious.
He didn't intend to do this, he had no choice.
"Xiuyuan, grandma isn't trying to force you to do anything. I just hope both of you are well." The old lady was a little sad today. "Grandma wants you to be happy and doesn't want you to regret it."
Gu Xiuyuan's heart seemed to be torn apart.
Grandma is almost eighty years old. This is the age when she should be surrounded by her children and grandchildren, enjoying the happiness of family life. But now she is crying for him.
"Xiuyuan, grandma doesn't know why you're like this, but in this life, you'll encounter many things, and you can't solve problems in the way you think is right."
Many people have said this.
Before going abroad, Sheng Kai talked to him all night, and Qin Chuan talked about it whenever he got the chance.
No matter what happens, he will not keep it to himself.
The old lady said a lot more, but in the end she couldn't persuade him.
Gu Xiuyuan sent his grandmother to her room, and when he came back, he met Zao Zao on the stairs.
The little girl was wearing a one-piece pajamas, with her soft hair disheveled and her big black eyes made her look like a doll.
These two children really don't look like them. Zao Zao looks very much like his grandmother, and Chen Chen...now it seems that he looks very much like his uncle.
He thought of Xiaoyu's sweet complaints, saying how she had worked so hard to carry them for several months, but why didn't they look like her?!
At that time he coaxed her: Then have another one that looks like him.
I sneaked out early to drink water, but I didn't expect to meet the uncle who didn't like me.
I was at a loss as to whether to advance or retreat, and I felt a little timid.
Gu Xiuyuan felt heartbroken when he noticed the little girl was a little timid towards him.
"You're early!"
Gu Xiuyuan smiled and spoke as softly as possible. He moved forward a little, but did not dare to get too close.
Nodding cautiously early on.
"You want some water?"
Zao Zao ate too much sugar and drank up all the water in the small bottle, so he sneaked out while Mom and Chenchen were asleep.
"Do you want me to help you?"
The little guy nodded, holding his small water bottle and handed it over with both hands.
Gu Xiuyuan brought Zao Zao to the kitchen, poured water for her, wiped her with a wet towel, and then returned the bottle.
"Thank you, uncle."
The little guy's voice was soft and sticky, but Gu Xiuyuan was so hurt that he had trouble breathing.
"You're welcome." He smiled.
Perhaps she was really thirsty, so she gulped down half of the water through a straw, then touched her belly with satisfaction.
After drinking the water, she raised her head and looked at the handsome uncle in front of her. He looked as good-looking as her uncles.
This soft and lovely look almost melted Gu Xiuyuan's heart. He really wanted to hug her and kiss her.
"It's late, you should go to bed. If Mommy wakes up and can't see you, she'll be worried."
Zao Zao listened and nodded immediately, but turned in the wrong direction.
Seeing that she was about to hit the chair, Gu Xiuyuan quickly reached out to block it.
Zao Zao's little forehead hit his hand, and the unique smoothness of the baby's skin touched his heart.
At that moment, he almost burst into tears.
The little guy blinked his big eyes and looked at Gu Xiuyuan, "Thank you, uncle."
"Be careful."
Ji Shuyu didn't see her daughter coming, and just as she went downstairs, she saw two figures, one big and one small.
Hearing footsteps, they both looked up.
"Mom." He rushed over early.
Ji Shuyu squatted down and hugged her daughter, then looked at Gu Xiuyuan. Thinking of the scene just now, her heart felt a little sore.
"It's time for us to rest."
She nodded early, then waved her hand to Gu Xiuyuan: "Goodbye, uncle."
Gu Xiuyuan's eyes suddenly turned red, "Goodbye."
His voice choked slightly, and Ji Shuyu's fingers suddenly tightened a little.
Ji Shuyu carried her daughter upstairs, and the little girl leaned on her mother's shoulder, "Mom, doesn't that uncle like early morning?"
"It's not like that anymore." Ji Shuyu shook his head.
"Then why does he always seem sad every time he looks at Zao Zao?"
"Maybe, I'm tired!"
The voices of the two women grew farther and farther away, and soon disappeared on the stairs.
Gu Xiuyuan averted his gaze, looked at his hands, and then placed his hands on his heart.
Zao Zao, Daddy really loves you guys so much...
…
The next day, after breakfast, Ji Shuyu also wanted to leave.
The old lady pulled her with tears in her eyes, "Xiaoyu, are you leaving now?"
"Grandma, my work schedule isn't that tight lately, so I can come visit you anytime."
The old lady is depressed, but I want to see you every day!
Seeing her grandmother's thoughts, Ji Shuyu hugged her and said, "I will come here often."
The two babies were carried into the car by the bodyguards and then waved to their great-grandmother through the car window.
Ji Shuyu also said goodbye to her grandmother and walked towards the car.
"Xiao Yu."
Gu Xiuyuan called her and took two steps forward quickly.
Ji Shuyu stopped and turned to look at him.
Gu Xiuyuan clenched and unclenched his hands in his trouser pockets, then smiled. "Be happy."
These words came a little abruptly, but Ji Shuyu still smiled.
"Thank you, you too."
Gu Xiuyuan watched her get into the car and watched the door close, just like... three minutes ago, when he watched her disappear from his sight.
The car started slowly. Gu Xiuyuan lowered his head and took a deep breath. Before he could recover from the heartache, he heard his aunt's cry from behind him: "Old lady!"
