After everyone left, Grandfather Gu who was still sitting at the same place in the conference room, stared at the projector in front of him in a daze. The things that happened earlier took a heavy toll on him.
He held his head back and let out a heavy sigh. He tried to look strong earlier but only he knows how much strength he has to use to stay firm and strong while dealing with Xingren who was once an apple of his eyes.
It's not like he doesn't love her or started to hate her just because he found out that she isn't his granddaughter and it was all a confusion. He still loves her, very dearly at that too.
However, he loves Xu Nuan as well who has seen the cruelty of the world and has never received an ounce of love from her family. Xingren at least stayed with them and grew up in a pampered environment where she received whatever she asked for.
