The old man, who had his back to the door, trembled as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Then, he slowly turned around and saw the child standing at the low door. The old man's fingers trembled as he held the sink. His eyes instantly turned red.
"Xiao?" She called out very softly, as if she was afraid that everything in front of her was just a dream, a dream that she had had countless times.
"Grandmother," Gu Xiao called out again with a smile.
The clothes in the old lady's hand slipped into the pool with a splash, splashing her in the water. She couldn't care about that and walked towards Gu Xiao. Her legs were already injured, and she had no time to care about her health for the past year. She was not in the mood to go to the hospital to see a doctor at all. She walked with difficulty as if she was dragging one leg. She couldn't walk fast at all. She was also afraid that if she walked slowly, the grandson she had been thinking about would disappear again. She was so anxious that she almost cried.
Gu Xiao quickly strode forward.
The old lady hugged him and cried out loud. Her voice was heart-wrenching as she said, " where did you go, child? I haven't heard from you for so long. Do you know how worried I was? You're such a worrying child. Do you know how your grandmother has been living alone all this time?"
Gu Xiao's eyes reddened unconsciously. He reached out and patted her back."Aren't I back now? I'm back, aren't I?"
Grandmother Gu was crying uncontrollably. I thought you were gone when I didn't hear from you at all. I've always wanted to just die. There's no one left in this world that I care about. I'm not in good health either. It's really a torture to be alive.
"Grandma, don't say that. I'm fine, aren't I?" Gu Xiao's chest felt extremely tight.
Grandma Gu patted his back again. you always disobey me. I told you not to go to young master Fu, but you insisted. Can you listen to me in the future? "
Gu Xiao could not help but cough. Grandma Gu was shocked and quickly helped him to sit down."What's wrong? What's going on?"
Gu Xiao waved his hand. I'm fine. I just had an operation a few days ago. I haven't fully recovered yet.
why didn't you say so earlier? did I hurt you? " grandma Gu's tears kept falling.
"No, it doesn't hurt. Don't worry," Gu Xiao replied.
Grandma Gu reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but they still continued to flow.
I'll live well in the future, " Gu Xiao comforted her. don't worry.
"You're not going to seek revenge from your brother?"
Gu Xiao's eyes drooped, and there was a hint of loneliness in them. later, I found out that it wasn't him. It was someone my mother found who released the news.
Grandma Gu's heart clenched. She was afraid that this would make the child feel even worse. It was understandable for young master Fu to release the news, but his mother had disregarded the life and death of her child for her own benefit. Was this something a real mother could do?
"Your mother, she's Yingluo."
"I know. She's in jail," Gu Xiao said as he held his grandmother's hand.
Grandma Gu sighed and didn't know what to say.
She deserved it. That was her daughter, but she had indeed done many crazy things. She was feeling very complicated.
it was Mrs. Fu who sued her, saying that it was regarding your father's inheritance. She couldn't go against the fu family, so she got herself arrested. I heard that the inheritance your father left her back then was also confiscated.
It was really too clever of a scheme, but it ruined Qing Qing's life.
"She asked for it," Gu Xiao chuckled.
