At the entrance of the garrison.
The two elderly people, Yan Yan and Gu Huadong, had been sitting in the direction of the main entrance for nearly an hour.
Gu Sinian and Su Ying couldn't bear it and came out anyway, seeing how much the two elderly people had aged in just a few years.
Su Ying looked at the two elderly people not far away in disbelief and nudged the man's shoulder.
"What's wrong with those two old folks? Their own grandson and son are by their side, and they have everything they want right in front of them, so why do they look so haggard?"
Gu Sinian shrugged. Although he knew what was going on, he had also warned himself to sever all ties with the past.
After all, the Gu family no longer belonged to him, nor was it his home, so naturally he hadn't paid attention to the Gu family's messy affairs.
Unfortunately, his father-in-law had no intention of letting him off the hook. Whenever he had free time, he would call his office and tell him all about the dire straits the Gu family was going through, as if it were a joke.
He can't refuse to listen.
That's how we found out about the Gu family's development prospects over the next few years.
The Gu family is having a very difficult time right now, relying on Gu Yuanhong's meager salary to support the whole family. Just thinking about it makes me feel the hardship.
The two elderly people have pensions, which is why they are able to maintain the facade of a respectable family life.
Everyone knows the specifics of Gu Jia's situation.
Gu Yanshuo is truly a child who has let down the two elderly people who have given so much.
All they do every day is fight and brawl, which gives the entire Gu family a headache.
Gu Huadong and Yan Yan poured all their efforts into Gu Yanshuo, only to receive this result.
Gu Yanshuo's father's identity was recently confirmed; he was not a prison guard, but a prisoner.
Qiao Xiyan said those things only to give the child a good identity, but she never expected things to turn out this way.
Only after further investigation did they discover that Gu Yanshuo was the son of a death row inmate.
These parents are both dishonest people, so their child is unlikely to be a good one.
This is not absolutely 100%.
But there were no exceptions. Gu Yanshuo was no pushover. Otherwise, how could Gu Huadong and Yan Yan, who were both so old, have ended up like this?
At his age, he traveled a long distance to the post station to beg him; it's no surprise that it was all for that brat Gu Yanshuo.
Seeing that her husband was silent, Su Ying roughly guessed what was going on.
"What's going on? Didn't these two old people sever ties with the past? Why are they suddenly here?"
The man curled his lip, his expression one of having already seen through everything. "What else could it be? Who is the Gu family's focus right now? Who are these two old people here for today?"
“Gu Yanshuo! I’ve heard a lot of rumors about him lately. He’s involved in everything bad people do, and he’s also involved in everything bad people wouldn’t dare to do. He’s done all sorts of bad things, which is chilling.”
"They're probably here today because of Gu Yanshuo. They must have done something that the Gu family can't handle, which is why the two elders have come all this way."
Gu Sinian nodded in agreement, "Absolutely. After all, these two old people have never come to me in the past few years. Today, no one but Gu Yanshuo could make them bow their heads."
"I don't know what trouble Gu Yanshuo has gotten himself into this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult to resolve, which would be bad for you."
Gu Sinian didn't take such matters seriously at all. He would help if he could, but if he really couldn't help, then there was nothing he could do.
He would never give up everything he has for someone he has no connection with.
After all, Gu Yanshuo wasn't familiar with him.
Yan Yan and Gu Huadong immediately stepped forward when they saw Su Ying and Gu Sinian. Yan Yan seized the opportunity and grabbed Gu Sinian's hand.
Gu Sinianhe was trying to adjust internally. After all, they hadn't severed ties, and the sudden familiarity made him feel uncomfortable.
He slowly withdrew his hand, creating some distance between himself and Yan Yan. "Just say what's on your mind. We're very busy; we still have to take Chenchen to military academy later."
Gu Huadong was very gratified to hear that his beloved great-grandson had been admitted to a military academy, just as he had predicted.
"Chenchen is really capable... she actually got into a military academy, her future is limitless."
It was no secret that Gu Lichen had taken the military academy entrance exam. He got in with the highest score, which gave Gu Sinian and Su Ying a huge boost.
"My son is already very outstanding."
Gu Huadong and Yan Yan were slightly taken aback upon hearing this. They both knew that Gu Lichen had been very smart since childhood, had his own opinions, and was quick-witted. He was a natural-born soldier and leader.
Thinking of his good-for-nothing child at home, Gu Huadong was so worried that he couldn't speak.
"Since you've come all this way, let's get down to business and stop talking about unnecessary things, because they really aren't necessary."
"Tell me, what brings you here this time?"
Gu Huadong lowered his head in shame, but he had no choice but to come this time.
"It was Yan Shuo. He got into a fight at school over a girl and broke two of her ribs. The victim's parents refused to let it go and insisted that Yan Shuo go to jail."
“This child has just turned eighteen. If he goes in like this, his life will be ruined.”
"Then what?"
“I heard that person is your good friend. Could you get him to sign some settlement agreements? Once the settlement agreements are signed, our Gu family will agree to all his requests.”
Su Ying stood aside and sneered, "I said five years ago that Gu Yanshuo was not the kind of person who was easy to teach. I told you to keep an eye on him, and this is how you keep an eye on him?"
"To be so ruthless at such a young age, breaking two ribs of a peer, that's quite brutal, very much like his father back in the day."
When Yan Yan heard about Gu Yanshuo's biological father, she wasn't very clear about it, only knowing that Yanshuo's father was a prison guard.
As for how Qiao Xiyan got pregnant with a prison guard's child and thus escaped the death penalty...
They weren't very interested in these things; it must be because... the two of them had automatically ignored these details over the years.
"Yes. I've heard that prison guards deal with prisoners all year round, so it's normal for them to be a little stronger."
"What criminal? Your precious grandson's biological father was found out some time ago. He is a heinous murderer with a lot of murders on his hands."
"Qiao Xiyan was just trying to survive... she randomly picked a man, but who was he? She didn't even understand what was going on herself."
Upon hearing that their beloved grandson's father was a serial killer with multiple murders, Gu Huadong and Yan Yan could hardly believe their ears.
No wonder Gu Yanshuo is so unruly; his eyes are full of sinister things, and he gets angry as soon as you mention it.
Thinking back on the past, if they hadn't been related to Gu Yanshuo by blood, they would have been dead long ago.
The two looked at each other, trembling, unsure of what to say next.
It seems they've forgotten why they came here in the first place.
They rescued people this time, but what about next time?
