Gu Jueye's return brought new life to the Gu family, which had been shrouded in gloom for several years.
When Gu Zhizhou and Qin Lin saw their son unharmed, they were both deeply moved.
Qin Lin cried her eyes out.
"Ah Ye, Mom knows that I did a lot of wrong things before and kept trying to stop you from being with Qian Mo. Mom sincerely apologizes to you and promises that she will never stop your decisions again."
Qin Lin believed that Gu Jueye hadn't returned in recent years because she had been preventing her son's marriage.
Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu have always kept Gu Jueye's disappearance a secret from the outside world. Gu Zhizhou knew some of it, but he was afraid that Qin Lin couldn't handle it, so he deliberately kept it a secret for the past few years.
Gu Jueye looked at Qin Lin.
"You really won't stop my marriage?"
Qin Lin nodded vigorously, "As long as you're alright, Mom won't care about anything else."
She never wanted to lose contact with her son for another five years.
She had truly had enough of this torment.
Gu Jueye made a serious expression as if he was considering it.
"I'll bring Qianmo home for dinner another day."
Qin Lin trembled slightly, not because she disliked Bai Qianmo, but because she felt somewhat embarrassed.
After all, she and her future daughter-in-law had a very unpleasant falling out before.
When Madam Gu saw her long-lost grandson, her eyes were red and swollen from crying.
"I knew you would come back."
"Seventh Brother, next time you run off to play, you must tell me, or Grandma is afraid you'll get lost again."
Gu Jueye looked at the old man with a full head of white hair in front of him.
Time has clearly left deep wrinkles on her face, but she remains as loving and understanding as he was in his memory.
“I understand, Grandma.”
Madam Gu reached out and patted the back of his hand: "Good boy."
"Madam, it's time for your medicine." Aunt Mei came over with a glass of water.
"Why would I take medicine when I'm perfectly healthy?"
"Yes, you're fine. These are health supplements; taking them will make you look younger." Aunt Mei said in a coaxing tone, sitting next to the old lady and handing her a few pills that she had prepared in advance.
Upon hearing that it was for beauty and health, Madam Gu obediently ate it.
"Aunt Mei, come with me for a moment."
"Yes, Seventh Young Master." Aunt Mei put down her water glass and followed Gu Jueye out of the house.
"How long has the old lady had these symptoms?"
The old lady has forgotten many things, and she doesn't recognize the younger generations in her family.
But the only ones I remember are Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo, and I often bring up their relationship.
"Shortly after learning of your disappearance, the old lady's symptoms appeared. She forgot many things. She would forget what she had said just one day and then forget it completely two days later. The old man realized there was a problem and asked a specialist from the military hospital to examine her. The result was encephalitis. If this condition had worsened, it would have turned into dementia. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and she has been controlled with medication all these years. There is no sign that her condition has worsened."
"But Seventh Young Master, there's no need to worry too much. It's normal for the old lady to have a bad memory as she gets older. Since you came back, she has become much more cheerful. As long as you take good care of her, I believe she will get better and better."
"Yes, I'll go to the General Hospital of the Military Region tomorrow to consult with the neurology experts there about the old lady's illness and try to come up with a reasonable treatment plan as soon as possible."
Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Knowing that you are so filial, the old lady must be very pleased."

In the past few days, Bai Qianmo has been traveling to various cities to promote her film.
I can only contact my partner by phone.
After five years apart, she longed to be with him all the time.
However, she had to finish her work first, and she did it somewhat on purpose.
Taking a moment to herself, Bai Qianmo nestled in the hotel room, holding her phone as she made a video call to someone.
"What are you doing?"
On the other end of the video, the man was sitting at his desk, with a whole row of mahogany bookshelves behind him.
Seeing the background wall, Bai Qianmo leaned closer to the video: "Are you at the Gu family's old house? How are Grandpa and Grandma?"
"They're all fine, just like me."
"Like you in what way?"
The man smiled and said, "I miss you."
Bai Qianmo instantly felt a blow to her heart, a sweet sensation lingering in her heart.
"Then think about it. After all, it was your fault for sending me away in the first place."
She still harbored some resentment about the Crystal Palace incident.
“If I don’t send you away, you will be taken away by Ye Yun and Ruan Mengfan. At that time, you will not know who you are. If you go to Yirou Star, you will inevitably face a lot of difficulties. At that time, my only thought was to let you regain your memory and go back, so that I could save a lot of unnecessary trouble.”
"You always think of me, but have you ever thought about yourself? If Elder Buyi hadn't left a secret door when he built the Crystal Palace, and if Daze, Fangshu, and Guteng hadn't entered in time, you might have been buried by the collapsing Crystal Palace. Have you ever thought about how painful it would be for me to live if you died?"
Gu Jueye sighed, "You can't have it all, girl. You're thinking of me, and I'm thinking of you. Neither of us is wrong."
Bai Qianmo snorted lightly: "I'm not wrong, you're wrong."
I could have told her then and there, at least giving her some time to prepare.
To avoid returning to Yirou filled with guilt and sorrow, she could only focus all her energy on the war to numb herself.
Gu Jueye smiled and took the initiative to admit his mistake.
"Yes, I was wrong."
Indeed, you should never discuss right and wrong with your girlfriend.
