The glory of the past no longer exists, and the past years cannot be looked back. Each of us is forced to grow in the passage of time, and when we will grieve because of the loss, we don't remember that we have gained more.

The VIP box of the Inge Hotel was reopened after a lapse of five years, and Zhong Jingtian walked in under the leadership of the waiter and found that Gu Guosheng had already sat down inside.

The last time he was in a hurry at the airport, Zhong Jingtian didn't have time to see Gu Guosheng's face clearly, until he appeared in front of him, Zhong Jingtian could see clearly - the face that looked like he was a teenager was full of wrinkles, and his dull appearance was like a terminally ill old man, this was not the "old Gu" summarized by Zhong Jingtian's memory at all.

The two old friends, who used to talk about everything, are now speechless to each other, and Zhong Jingtian drank his saliva in embarrassment.

When he saw Zhong Nian appear in front of him covered with injuries, Zhong Jingtian swore that he would never forgive Gu Zihan, and similarly, he would not forgive the people of the Gu family.

Is this the reason why Mrs. Zhou asked them to meet? Tell them that what happened is irreparable, and that even if they miss the past, nothing can go back.

After a while, Grandma Zhou walked in on crutches, and behind her, followed by Xu Jie, who had disappeared for a long time. Gu Guosheng leaned on the table and wanted to stand up, but his feet fell soft and sat back in the chair.

Xu Jie was indifferent as if he didn't know him at all, and helped Mrs. Zhou to the chair and sat down, Xu Jie turned around and sat in the farthest position from Gu Guosheng and Zhong Jingtian.

The door of the box was closed outside, and Grandma Zhou said with a serious expression: "Okay, now that everyone is here, if you have anything to say, you can say it now." ”

Zhong Jingtian and Gu Guosheng glanced at each other, both of them were silent, Xu Jie poured himself a cup of tea, his face was indifferent as if he didn't care about what happened at all.

Grandma Zhou saw that they didn't mean to speak, so she slowly spoke:

"You don't say yes, do you? Okay, then I'll say it for you! ”

"Among you, there is a person who is still daydreaming, thinking that the four major families still exist well, and he blames his future son-in-law for the collapse of the four major families, and I don't need to say more, right?"

Zhong Jingtian knew that Old Madam Zhou was sarcastic about himself, he frowned, but he didn't dare to speak.

"It's all half-cut people who have fallen into the ground, do you still want to be so stubborn!?" Grandma Zhou was loud, she looked at Gu Guosheng and Xu Jie, and said:

"Do you have to tear your faces apart!"

Xu Jie's eyes became gloomy, he put down the teacup, got up and wanted to leave.

At this moment, Gu Guosheng slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Xu Jie.

"I'm sorry."

The apology that was five years late, no matter how sincere it was, was so ridiculous in Xu Jie's opinion.

"My son did something wrong back then, it was my father's lax discipline, I apologize to Xu Ruo, I apologize to the Gu family......"

Xu Jie sneered: "Do you think that after these years, you can make up for your mistakes by pretending to say 'I'm sorry'!?" ”

Xu Jie's "you" brought Zhong Jingtian in. Because he knew that Xu Ruo's accident back then was not only because of Gu Zihan, but also because of Zhong Jingtian.

"How did my son know who Zhong Qing was taken away by back then? How did he know that Gu Zihan did it! Zhong Jingtian, do you dare to say that this matter has nothing to do with you! ”

Zhong Jingtian's heart sank, and he didn't dare to look directly into Xu Jie's eyes.

Although a long time has passed since the events of that year, Zhong Jingtian will never forget every word he and Xu Ruo said.

"Yes, that's right, I told Xu Ruo that Zhongqing was taken away by Gu Zihan." Zhong Jingtian slapped the table and stood up, he glared at Xu Jie, and said word by word:

"Do you think you're the only victim in this room? Don't forget what your daughter did back then, she almost killed Xiaoqing, do you know! ”

Xu Jie couldn't control his temper, and stepped forward and grabbed Zhong Jingtian's collar.

Spitfire's eyes stared at Zhong Jingtian, Xu Jie's wrists trembled uncontrollably, everything that happened back then was like yesterday, and none of them had forgotten it.

"Gu Guosheng connived at Gu Zihan's misdeeds, you are no better! Zhong Jingtian, you know what dirty things you have done yourself! ”

"And where are you clean? Xu Jie, you cut off Gu Zihan's three fingers, and later I learned that Xu Ruo was crippled! ”

Xu Jie finally couldn't help but wave his fist and hit Zhong Jingtian in the face.

Two people who were over half a hundred years old fought together, and Gu Guosheng wanted to persuade him to fight, but he was accidentally injured and knocked to the ground.

And from the beginning, Mrs. Zhou sat indifferently on the chair, whether it was the dispute between Zhong Jingtian and Xu Jie, or the three of them fighting together, she didn't stop it.

Because all of this seemed to her to be a ridiculous joke.

Ridiculous scenes, absurd dialogues, impulsive behavior...... All of this happened to the so-called four families that Zhong Jingtian valued the most, and it would definitely laugh off everyone's big teeth if it was spread.

Old Madam Zhou took a sip of tea, and the sound of the fight next to her slowly became quieter, she had long expected this to happen, so she didn't turn her head to look at them at all.

"If you've had enough, sit down and drink water."

Old Madam Zhou said calmly.

The three of them staggered to their feet, they were not young people after all, and after a few moves, they felt as if the bones in their bodies were broken. Zhong Jingtian's heart became colder and colder, and he began to understand what Old Madam Zhou meant.

"Over the years, when you were in a cold war for the sake of your children, something happened, and I think you should want to know."

Grandma Zhou knocked on the crutches, the door of the box was opened, and Zhou Qingyu brought in a few things.

"Zihan's confession, Zimo's pennant to save people, Qingyu and Ziyu's marriage certificate, Lao Gu, this is for you."

Gu Guosheng's hands couldn't stop trembling, he looked at the confession written by Gu Zihan himself, as well as the photos of him when he was arrested, recalling all the things that happened in the past, the old man couldn't help but burst into tears.

"This is the Sky City series launched by Zhong Qing and international designer Ryan, and there are nearly three months to go, the financial statements of the Zhong Group."

Zhong Jingtian didn't know how to design, but when he saw Zhong Qing's name written in the designer's column, his heart seemed to be filled with something. Looking at the financial statements of Zhong Shi Group, Zhong Nian single-handedly turned the company into a profit, how much did she pay......

"Xiao Xu, this last thing is for you."

Grandma Zhou stood up and personally handed a photo album to Xu Jie's hand, who opened it and saw that it was a photo of Xu Zhiyan and Xu Ruo, not only the two of them, but also a group photo of all the children together, from childhood to adulthood, every time period.

He saw Gu Zihan's figure slowly disappear from the photo, and then Gu Xiu's figure appeared one after another; He saw the smiles on the children's faces slowly fade from innocence to relief.

The last photo he saw was of all the children gathered together, and Zhong Qing was sitting in the middle of them, her belly bulging as if she was pregnant.

Xu Jie looked up in surprise: "This is ......"

"This is the reason why Zhiyan and Xiao want to return to China, they heard that Gu Xiu and Zhong Qing had an accident and wanted to return to China to help, and now this group of children has solved the misunderstanding, and they get along very well."

Hearing Mrs. Zhou say this, Zhong Jingtian and Gu Guosheng's faces turned red.

A group of children have let go of the mustard in their hearts and started anew, and their old guys are still alive in the past and can't get out.

They all think they are victims, but they forget that they are also perpetrators.

They seek so-called justice in what they think is right, saying that it is for the sake of their children, but in fact it is because of their own selfishness.

Just like Old Madam Zhou said, the destruction of the four major families was not because of Gu Xiu, if they were really indestructible, even if there were ten Gu Xiu, they would not be able to destroy it.

"Confused, you are really confused." Old Madam Zhou sighed, she shook her head, turned around and left the box.

Leaving Zhong Jingtian and the others looking at each other in the box, they used to be good brothers who talked about everything when they were young, when did everything change?

……

……

At the same time, outside the Zhong family's villa, Zhong Qing stood in front of Gu Xiu's car, and she looked back at this "home" where she grew up, both familiar and unfamiliar.

She will never forget the time when her parents played with her in the yard when she was a child, just as she will never forget the moment her mother closed her eyes.

Chu Shuzhi stood at the door with a pale face, she packed a lot of food and drink for Zhong Qing, even if she knew that Zhong Qing was not short of these, she wanted to make up for her.

"Your due date is approaching, if you feel unwell, go to the hospital immediately! I—I know you still hate me, but I—I can help you! I have experience with having children and I can still ......"

Zhong Nian grabbed Chu Shuzhi, who was chattering, and said, "Mom, there is a professional aunt over there, don't worry about it." ”

"Ah...... Yes, yes......"

Chu Shuzhi lowered her head and smiled bitterly.

For some reason, Zhong Qing's heart softened when she saw her like this.

"After the child is born, there must be a lot of things I don't understand, and I will have to ask your opinion when the time comes."

Hearing Zhong Qing's words, Chu Shuzhi raised her head in surprise and joy. She had thought about the scene where Zhong Qing would talk to her again many times, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Good! Good! I—I'll definitely take care of you, Zhong Qing, I'm ......."

"Don't say anything else, Zhong Nian has my mobile phone number there, if you have anything, don't let her relay it next time."

After saying this, Zhong Qing turned around and got into Gu Xiu's car. She deliberately didn't dare to look at Chu Shuzhi's tears, because she knew that she would not be able to help it. After Gu Xiu put away his luggage, he also got into the car, and when he saw Zhong Qing bowing her head and sobbing, he held her hand.

"Gu Xiu, I'...... Is this the right thing to do? ”

Gu Xiu looked at Zhong Qing's uneasy appearance, put his arm around her shoulders and hugged her in his arms. He will not comment on whether Zhong Qing's decision is right or wrong, because as long as she decides, there must be a reason for her.

"You already know the answer, don't you?"
