Gu Xiaoneng could clearly feel that the figure of the old man who was carrying him forward looked old and lonely for a moment.
"dad……"
After a brief silence, Gu Xiao shouted hoarsely, just like he did when he was a child.
The man's eyes flashed, he hadn't called the old man that for a long time.
Shen Kangxiong's body trembled slightly, and his shoulders gradually sank.
"Dad, please forgive me, brother..." Shen Wei's voice was still crying, and she had tried her best to endure it in front of her juniors.
Gu Ran stepped forward and held Gu Xiao's hand. At this time, she didn't know what to say.
"Yes, father, eldest brother... eldest brother already knows that he was wrong." Shen Jiang helped, glanced sideways at Gu Xiao, and when Gu Xiao turned to look at him, he quickly looked away.
The eldest brother was never the one to apologize before. He has exactly the same temperament as his father.
Shen Kangxiong snorted coldly, "He knew he was wrong? I didn't see it."
That's what he said, but his tone was obviously much more relaxed than before.
"Dad, I know I was wrong. I was too willful back then and I shouldn't have gotten into trouble with you and made you sad." He really knew he was wrong.
As he got older, he understood some truths.
Shen Kangxiong did not speak, but turned his head to look at Ye Nanyi.
"Grandpa." Ye Nanyi obediently stepped forward and took the old man's arm.
Shen Kangxiong smiled happily. She rarely called him grandpa before, and he knew it in his heart.
Unexpectedly, one of his first actions would lead to him recognizing his long-lost granddaughter back in advance.
Maybe this is God's will.
"Stay and eat with grandpa."
Ye Nanyi: "Okay."
After speaking, Shen Kangxiong glanced sideways at the people behind him and said, "You can do whatever you want."
The old man walked towards the restaurant on crutches. The people behind him looked at me and I looked at you.
Is this a relief?
It's easy to talk as long as you let go.
"Grandpa!" Gu Sichen took two steps forward and took Mr. Shen's other arm. "Grandpa, you don't even know that I have always wanted to have a grandpa since I was a child."
Gu Siyu and Gu Sirui looked at each other and hurried forward.
"grandfather."
"grandfather."
Shen Kangxiong pursed his lips and looked at them with a serious expression, "You can stay too, others, whatever you want!"
It goes without saying who this other person refers to.
Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows. It was impossible for him to just leave at this time, so he took Gu Ran's hand and followed him into the restaurant.
Uncle Wu arranged for them to sit down and served the prepared meals one after another.
It's been a long time since the Shen family's restaurant had so many people seated.
Gu Xiao's eyes fell on the dishes, and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.
"The old man has asked people to prepare food every day these days. They are all your favorite food." Uncle Wu said in a low voice.
"Old Wu, the older you get, the more you talk, don't you!" Shen Kangxiong scolded angrily. Uncle Wu quickly stepped back, but in his heart he was happy for the reunion of their father and son.
Mr. Shen was exposed, and he looked a little embarrassed, "I only let you eat for the sake of my granddaughter. You can leave after eating."
"Grandpa, we are all your grandsons." Gu Sichen sat next to the old man and diligently served the old man a bowl of soup and brought it to him.
Mr. Shen raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
"Thank you, dad." Gu Xiao's voice softened, and his face was filled with relief that he had never seen before.
The dishes on this table said it all.
"Hmph..." Mr. Shen snorted again. Does he need to thank him?
What did you do early?
Ye Nanyi used serving chopsticks to pick up the old man's favorite fish and put it on the plate, "Grandpa, it's not good to eat while angry."
Looking at the fish that his granddaughter brought over, the serious expression on Shen Kangxiong's face gradually relaxed.
"I am doing this just for the sake of my good granddaughter, just you, Shen Xiao! I will never let you enter the Shen family again!"
"Yes, yes, father is right. But Yiyi is my daughter. If you recognize her, it means you have forgiven me." Gu Xiao rarely lost his usual seriousness, and became slightly rebellious in front of Shen Kangxiong.
"You..." The old man stared at him.
This scene seems to be back to my childhood.
Shen Wei and Shen Jiang looked on. In this family, apart from the mother, only the eldest brother dared to talk to his father like this.
Shen Kangxiong rolled his eyes at the person opposite him. He didn't care about his granddaughter because of his face.
Not looking at him.
After a meal, even if it is noisy, it is a rare harmony for the family.
Gu Xiao knew that it was impossible for the old man to compromise all of a sudden, but at least they had taken this step and the future would be long.
After coming out of Shen's house, Gu Siyu looked at the time. Except for Ye Nanyi, everyone else looked at each other tacitly.
Ye Nanyi thought that after sending them to their place of residence, she would return to Tangyuan.
The black business car drove out from the Shen family's old house and drove along the seaside.
Seeing the scenery receding outside the window becoming more and more familiar, Ye Nanyi finally reacted.
Is this the way to the ghetto?
This road should have been extremely familiar to her, but now it felt strange.
The high prison-like wall disappeared, and the original mud floor was paved with suet. The car drove smoothly and stopped at the beach.
Looking around, two high-rise buildings of more than 30 stories have risen on the seaside. In front of them are a resort villa and a seaside playground.
Behind the two high-rise buildings, there are several high-rise buildings under construction, and the plan next to them looks like they are preparing to build schools.
On the side near the road, there are restaurants, camping snack streets, hotels, etc...
This area of the slum is gradually integrated into the city and is no longer isolated.
Ye Nanyi felt it when she got out of the car. There was no longer the smell of rotten fish and shrimp in the air.
Unexpectedly, in just two months, the slums have changed so much.
Ye Nanyi's phone rang, and a low and sweet voice came through the phone receiver.
"Nan Nan, turn around."
