Gu Jiao looked at Lou Jinhuan: "You want to go back?"
Lou Jinhuan nodded: "I go back every New Year and festival, have you forgotten?"
Gu Jiao was startled, it seemed like it was true, but at that time he didn't have a formal identity, and it was hard to ask questions. It's different now, he is a real boyfriend.
"When will you go back? Do you want to spend the night there?"
Lou Jinhuan shook his head: "If you don't want to spend the night there, my grandma..."
She paused for a moment. After the accident, the old man had been unable to come out. He was even unable to live at home due to excessive grief and could only live in a nursing home. Looking at Lou Jinhuan, who was healthy and healthy, she couldn't accept it.
She would think why everyone died and she was the only one left?
The old man would become a little confused and more superstitious as he got older, so she wondered if Lou Jinhuan was a genocide?
Lou Jinhuan could understand, but it was difficult to let go, so he had been living with Gu's family and only occasionally returned to City B to visit his grandma.
Remembering that Lou Jinhuan would be depressed for a few days every time he came back, Gu Jiao suddenly said: "What day did you book the flight? I'll go with you."
Lou Jinhuan was stunned, "Are you going?"
"Why, shouldn't you tell your family that you have a boyfriend? I've already taken you to meet your parents, do you still want to hide me?"
Gu Jiao looked sad, while Baizhu watched from the side and said he couldn't bear it.
Lou Jinhuan's face turned red, "Aunt Bai and Uncle Gu are here, please be more serious."
She put down the dumplings in her hands and said, "I'll go back tomorrow and stay for half a day. It will be too hard for you to go with me on the flight that night."
"I don't care if it's hard or not. I only care if you need me. Look into my eyes and tell me, do you want me to go with you?"
Lou Tingwan looked into Gu Jiao's deep eyes. She couldn't say no if she refused. She nodded: "Yes."
"Okay, tell me the flight and I'll see if there are any tickets left. It doesn't matter if there's no next flight."
Lou Jinhuan showed Gu Jiao his flight. Fortunately, he still had tickets. Gu Jiao immediately booked all the round-trip flights before putting down his phone.
This little episode passed quickly. The two of them concentrated on making dumplings. At noon, the family sat together and had a very sumptuous lunch. Gu Yuan took the cooking himself and cooked several dishes, all of which were loved by everyone.
Because he was happy, he also took out a bottle of red wine. Red wine was also fresh when paired with dumplings. Because the day was special, Gu Jiao and Lou Jinhuan made an exception and were allowed to drink a little.
Everyone had a good time. After dinner, everyone cleaned up the living room and kitchen and went back to their respective rooms to rest.
Gu Jiao sneaked into Lou Jinhuan's room while Bai Shu and Gu Yuan were going upstairs. Everyone was a little tipsy because they drank wine at noon. The two lay together and made love for a while before falling asleep in each other's arms.
The afternoon was free. Bai Zhu and Gu Yuan went out on a date. Gu Jiao and Lou Jinhuan could do whatever they wanted. They would take care of dinner themselves. Bai Zhu and Gu Yuan wouldn't be back anyway.
Everyone had a very fulfilling day.
Early the next morning, Lou Jinhuan and Gu Jiao set out on their way to the airport.
The plane took off smoothly, passed through the sky, and landed at B City Airport at 9:30 in the morning.
Lou Jinhuan called her grandma before getting on the plane, but no one came to pick her up when she got off the plane.
Lou Jinhuan was used to it, "Let's go, let's go out and take a taxi."
Gu Jiao held her hand, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Grandma's family lived in the suburbs, and it took a long time to get there by taxi. They had fun all the way upstairs without saying much, and Gu Jiao held her hand and didn't say anything.
Arriving at the entrance of the villa, Gu Jiao paid and took Lou Jinhuan out of the car.
City B is very warm. They were wearing thin down jackets when they arrived, and they were already sweating from the heat after riding all the way in the car.
Fortunately, there are trees inside the villa, which makes it a little cooler.
"When you see grandma later, if you don't want to talk to her, just don't say anything. Don't take anything she says to heart. As people get older, their ideas and tempers will change. Let's just sit down and leave."
Gu Jiao felt even more distressed when she said that. He couldn't imagine what the people who were held in the palm of his hand at home were suffering here.
Lou Jinhuan stood at the door, entered his fingerprint, and the door of the villa opened with a click.
Aunt Wang, who was busy inside, turned her head and glanced when she heard the movement, "Who is it?"
"Aunt Wang, it's me."
Lou Jinhuan stood at the door, still holding Gu Jiao's hand.
Aunt Wang was stunned for a moment, then wiped her hands on Wei Qunshan and came forward excitedly, "Miss is back! Why didn't you tell me in advance? I can go buy groceries."
Lou Jinhuan said as usual: "I called grandma."
Aunt Wang's smile froze and she said awkwardly, "Then... maybe she forgot to tell me, come on, come on, stop standing, I'll find your shoes, come in quickly!"
She took out two pairs of disposable slippers from the shoe cabinet, "Is this Master Gu? We don't have men's slippers at home, why don't you just come in with your shoes on?"
Lou Jinhuan also nodded: "Don't change. You are a guest and have privileges."
Gu Jiao walked in without changing her shoes, "Hello, Aunt Wang, I am Gu Jiao."
"Hello, hello." Aunt Wang was flattered. She looked at Gu Jiao for a while and said, "Master Gu is so handsome!"
Gu Jiao smiled politely, "Where is the old lady? Aren't you at home?"
"Here we are, upstairs. You guys sit down first and I'll call someone."
Aunt Wang asked people to sit on the sofa, brought a plate of fresh fruit and hurried upstairs.
Gu Jiao and Lou Jinhuan took off their down jackets, and both of them were wearing shirts underneath.
"Has Madam always been like this?" Gu Jiao finally couldn't help but ask.
Lou Jinhuan whispered: "Well, our relationship is relatively weak."
Gu Jiao hesitated to speak. Out of good upbringing, he did not criticize her elder in front of Lou Jinhuan, but his expression was not very good.
After a while, the sound of crutches falling was heard upstairs, and Aunt Wang helped the old lady down.
On the first floor, Aunt Wang pushed a wheelchair, and the old lady sat on it and pulled her to the sofa.
The old lady was only in her sixties, and her hair was already completely white, like a handful of snow piled on her head. She took good care of it, but the wrinkles were still clearly visible. The slightly downward corners of her lips made her look quite majestic.
There was a slight stir when those cold eyes fell on Lou Jinhuan.
"Why bother making this trip in the cold weather? I won't let you eat."
Lou Jinhuan looked calm, "We didn't plan to stay for dinner, we just came to see you. You seem to be in good condition, so I'm relieved."
Gu Jiao stood up, walked to the old lady and stretched out his hand, "Happy New Year, old lady, I am Gu Jiao."
"Boy from the Gu family, how old have you become?" The old lady smiled faintly and stretched out her hand to shake Gu Jiao's hand, "I went to see you when you were one month old. You were so small and so active. Very, but not quite the same as now.”
"People change. The old lady is not the same as before, right?" Gu Jiao took back his hand, indicating something.
