Gu Jinzhi felt Li Wei's pain, and the originally dead lake of his heart suddenly began to ripple.
However, before he could recover from his throbbing, before he could hesitate on how to comfort her.
The girl opposite suddenly broke down.
"Wow--"
She cried like a baby, completely out of shape and out of breath.
While crying, she tried to save her face, her voice was unclear and intermittent.
"Old Gu...I, I'm telling you...Uh...don't misunderstand..."
"I'm not... I'm not crying because I'm worried about you... It's all your grandpa's fault!"
She sobbed and wiped her face fiercely with the back of her hand.
"The day after our wedding... he insisted I go fishing with him... hiccups... and then for some reason he just started... started crying..."
"And then... and then I started crying too... After I got home, it took me a long time to recover... Look, it's started again now, wuwuwu..."
As she complained, tears and snot flowed uncontrollably. She cried without any order and there was no beauty in her voice.
Gu Jinzhi was completely thrown into disarray.
He wanted to persuade her, but didn't know where to start.
He wanted to hand her a tissue, but the terrace was empty.
He wanted to go to the bathroom in the bedroom to get it, but his feet seemed to be nailed to the spot and he was unwilling to leave her even a step.
Seeing that Li Wei was crying harder and harder, her little face turned red and she could hardly breathe, Gu Jinzhi could no longer bear it.
He suddenly stood up and kicked away the round table that was in the way between them.
The table scraped against the ground with a harsh sound and fell to the ground.
He took a step forward, half-knelt in front of Li Wei, opened his arms, and without saying a word, took her trembling body into his arms.
Li Wei cried and pushed him subconsciously.
But for some unknown reason, he couldn't exert any strength. The surging energy and blood seemed to have disappeared, and his hands were weak, as if he was acting coquettishly.
Moreover, for some reason, being hugged by him like this, the tearing pain in my chest was actually relieved a lot.
Although the tears continued to flow, her heart felt strangely at peace. She simply gave up struggling, buried her face in his shoulder, and let her emotions flow out like a flood.
After a while, Li Wei felt that the snot and tears on her face were sticky and she felt very uncomfortable.
She subconsciously raised her hand to wipe it off, but felt that it would be even more disgusting if it was on her hands.
So, without hesitation, she smeared the sticky stuff on her hands on Gu Jinzhi's collar.
Gu Jinzhi's arms around her stiffened for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and finally turned into a helpless smile.
Gradually, the movement in my arms subsided.
Gu Jinzhi thought she was tired of crying and was about to loosen his arms to see what was going on, but the person in his arms suddenly became limp and without support, she was about to fall to the side.
His heart tightened and he quickly grabbed her.
Only then did I realize that she had closed her eyes at some point, her breathing was steady and long, and she seemed to have fallen asleep.
Gu Jinzhi picked her up and carried her sideways, intending to put her back on the big bed in the bedroom.
But after taking two steps, he stopped again, looked down at the clown in his arms, and was reluctant to let go.
Finally, he turned and walked back to the terrace and sat back in his chair.
He adjusted himself to a comfortable position, allowing Li Wei to sit safely on his lap with her head resting on his shoulder.
He just held her like this, snuggling up to her quietly, and sat for a long, long time.
Although it is the hottest summer day, the body of the person in my arms has a hint of coolness.
Holding her in his arms, he not only didn't feel the slightest bit of heat, but even his heart became calm.
It was a peace that he had never experienced in more than ten years since he was old enough to understand.
Suddenly, he remembered what she had just said when she was crying, and his expression darkened.
He shook Li Wei gently, and seeing that she just mumbled and showed no signs of waking up, he knew that she was really fast asleep.
Gu Jinzhi then carefully took out his cell phone, held Li Wei's body steadily with his left hand, and dialed Gu Litong's number with his right hand.
The call was quickly connected, and Gu Litong's energetic voice came from the receiver: "Hey, kid, you still remember to call me?"
Gu Jinzhi was afraid of waking up the person in his arms, so he lowered his voice very low, "Grandpa, why are you using your emotions to affect her?"
Gu Litong on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "When I saw her, I was stunned. All of a sudden, I thought of your grandma."
Gu Jinzhi was silent.
After a long while, he finally spoke, his voice still very soft, "Grandpa, this is not a reason."
"I don't believe you can't control your emotions."
Gu Litong laughed dryly. "I certainly couldn't control myself at first, but after letting my emotions out, I changed my mind."
"Why?" Gu Jinzhi asked in a low voice.
"Who do you think I'm doing this for? It's all for your stupid head!" Gu Litong's voice suddenly rose, and he snorted, "Why, you think she doesn't like you, so you sit alone in the bridal chamber all night like a resentful woman in the boudoir?"
"Grandpa, if I don't help you, I think you'll be a bachelor for the rest of your life!"
"Hmph, what's going on? Did the little girl come to you to vent her anger? Is she crying?"
"Hey, do you know what this means? It means that she empathizes with me, your grandfather!"
"What kind of emotion do we share? It's the heart-wrenching pain of losing a loved one!"
