Chapter 509 Is this really how it is for us?
“Chenchen grew up by your side since he was little, and you have a very good relationship with him. He was raised very well by you. When he grows up, he can help you with the company’s business, so you won’t have to work so hard.”
"Gu Zhiyao, are you worried about me?" He Yi suddenly asked.
Gu Zhiyao paused for a moment, then remained silent.
He Yi instinctively grabbed her hand, "Gu Zhiyao, do you really have to..."
But suddenly he stopped talking!
No, he can't force her anymore!
Didn't you decide to let go and let her be with Yifei?
Why is he doing this again...?
Immediately, He Yi let go of her hand, stared at her intently, and then said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say. But you and Chenchen don't spend much time together. He's still young. Even if he stays with me in the future, he can stay with you for now."
Gu Zhiyao's mind was also briefly confused. Just now, he suddenly grabbed her, and she thought he wanted to do something again, but before she could think of how to react, he took the initiative to let go.
Therefore, she was quite puzzled.
It seems he's really planning to let go?
Should I stop bothering her?
Yes, that's how it should be.
She should rest assured.
Gu Zhiyao calmed down and looked at him, saying, "That's fine too. Just tell me whenever you want him to come back."
A look of pain flashed in He Yi's eyes, but he suppressed it and acted as if nothing was wrong.
Gu Zhiyao, is this really how it is between us?
But it hurts so much here, I don't want to, I really don't want to give you to Yifei!
"Dad, Mom." Just then, Niu Niu came over.
The little girl couldn't fall asleep, so she got up again and ran to her mother's side.
I didn't expect my dad to be there too.
She pulled He Yi aside for another chat.
Later, seeing that it was getting late, He Yi took her back to her room.
Gu Zhiyao watched their affectionate display, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
When He Yi reappeared half an hour later, he stared at her intently and said calmly, "I have some things to take care of. You should get some rest."
Gu Zhiyao nodded, watching him turn and leave.
She didn't sleep well that night, and when she woke up the next day, the old lady was already playing in the garden with Chenchen and Niuniu.
"Mommy, Great-Grandma is teaching my brother and me Tai Chi. Do you want to learn with me?" The little girl's face was flushed in the sunlight.
Gu Zhiyao smiled knowingly and slowly walked up to them.
The old lady said, "Did you sleep well last night? I thought you must be very tired after a long day, so I told everyone not to wake you. If anything happens, you must tell me, okay?"
"Mm." Gu Zhiyao nodded.
"Alright, that's enough practice for today. Go get something to eat, and then go visit your great-grandmother with your mother," the old lady said to Niu Niu and Chen Chen.
Everyone went back inside.
Gu Zhiyao had a good appetite and ate quite a lot. The old lady watched silently, feeling gratified. "Such a big appetite, it seems to be a girl? But some people say that eating a lot means it's a boy. Whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as they are healthy, it's a blessing from God."
"Yes. I just hope for health and peace," Gu Zhiyao said calmly.
“You are so kind, your good fortune will extend to your child. I have already instructed the driver to take you there later. I haven’t seen Lao Liang in a long time, and I should have gone to see her together, but I just promised to do a favor for the clan later, so that your grandmother can stay here for a couple of days next time.”
"Grandma He, please go ahead and do your work. I will take good care of Chenchen and Niuniu."
"Take good care of yourself too. You are the most precious person right now, understand?"
"it is good!"
Around ten o'clock, Gu Zhiyao left with her children and arrived at the old house where the Zheng family's matriarch lived.
The house was empty. The Zheng family was no longer as prosperous as before. After Zheng Yuanxi was sentenced to prison, the Zheng family had completely declined. Even Zheng Yuanxi's parents were reluctant to come here.
When Gu Zhiyao entered the house, she saw the old lady bending over and carrying a stone. Her body was thin and lonely, and she couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat. She rushed over and said, "Grandma, what are you doing? Let me do it."
The old lady was startled, looked up at the familiar figure, and instantly burst into tears.
Gu Zhiyao's tears also flowed freely. As she was about to bend down to move the stone, the old lady came to her senses and stopped her, "No, you're pregnant, you can't do these kinds of things."
"It's okay, Grandma, I can do it."
"No, let the nanny handle it. I just happened to be free and saw it, so I tried to do it. Don't worry, no matter what happens to the Zheng family, Grandma is still taken care of. Ayi has arranged for someone to take care of Grandma."
Gu Zhiyao was also taken aback when she heard this.
The old lady wiped her hands clean, pulled her to sit down on a stone bench, and looked her over as she said, "Grandma heard about what happened to you. Good child, blessed people are invincible. Now that the disaster is over, there's no need to be afraid anymore."
Gu Zhiyao had stopped crying and called Chenchen and Niuniu over. The two siblings greeted the old lady, who immediately became overjoyed and played with her grandchildren, enjoying the happiness of family life.
Later, while the children were playing, the old lady and Gu Zhiyao talked about Yifei.
“Yes, Grandma, I plan to go with him to his new post in a while, but I will come back to see you often. You can come to see me if you miss me.” Gu Zhiyao made no attempt to hide her feelings from her loving grandmother.
The old lady nodded. "Yifei is indeed a rare good boy. You will definitely be happy with him, much better than with your mother. It's just that Yifei is a bit of a disappointment... The Zheng family has fallen on hard times, and people in the industry avoid us like the plague. Yifei has been protecting me all along, and I know it's all because of you. Of course, I'm not telling you this to do anything, but just to tell you that even if you choose Yifei, you don't have to become enemies with him. After all, he is the father of your child, and that relationship can never be severed."
“I understand, Grandma. I’m trying to treat him with a normal attitude now, and things are fine for now.”
"That's good. Grandma isn't you, so she can't make the right decision for you. But no matter what, since you've made your choice, don't hesitate or regret it. Just keep moving forward. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask Grandma."
"it is good."
"By the way, your father also came to visit me twice, but I still can't forgive him and I won't see him even once." The old lady thought for a moment and then told me about it.
Gu Zhiyao paused for a moment, then said, "Grandma, you can do whatever you want. Besides, I don't think he'll blame you."
"He wouldn't dare?" the old lady snorted. "I heard that Wenya has been dealt with, but unfortunately, we still can't find concrete evidence to bring that woman to justice. As long as she's still around, you have to be careful. However, your father and Ayi should protect you. As long as you keep an eye on that woman, she won't be able to do anything to you anymore."
"Yes, so don't worry. My biggest hope now is that you and Grandma He can be at peace, happy, healthy, safe, and live long lives."
"Yes, Grandma will try her best to live and spend more time with you. You must also live strong, okay?"
"Ah."
