Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Chapter 1357: Chapter 1372: Inviting Trouble with Huo (47)

Gu Jizhou stood outside the ward, lit a cigarette, and took a breath silently, glancing inside the ward, ”My great-grandfather has woken up, I’m just letting you know he’s safe.”

Huo Jinnan put down his chopsticks, stood up, walked to the balcony, and looked at the sunlight outside the window, ”Okay, got it.”

Gu Jizhou paused, breathing heavily, ”I’m leaving now, great-grandfather probably doesn’t want to see me either.”

Huo Jinnan, ”Where are you going?”

”Where else? Serve my sentence properly.”

Gu Jizhou glanced toward the ward, struggling to breathe.

Great-grandfather, you favored me for over twenty years, but I disappointed you greatly! I’m sorry!

Feeling uncomfortable in his throat, suddenly choked by the smoke, he coughed violently.

Inside the ward, the old man heard the sound outside, excitedly sat up, ”Is... is it Jizhou?”

Gu Jizhou heard the old man’s voice, felt a sting at the corner of his eye, his eyes suddenly welled up, and his throat tightened painfully.

He glanced toward the ward, his eyes also turned red.

Great-grandfather, I’m sorry, I can’t face you now!

Having muddled through half my life, I don’t want to live this way anymore, hoping I can have the chance to come out, start anew, and one day stand before you proudly, so you can say, this is my great-grandson.

Hearing the old man getting out of bed, he quickened his pace and fled into the elevator.

Only when he got downstairs did he breathe a sigh of relief, calling Huo Jinnan, his eyes deep and dark, ”Find someone to look after my great-grandfather, lest anyone gets any ideas about him again, and protect her, don’t let her be wronged.”

Huo Jinnan remained silent, turning to look at Qin Huan.

Gu Jizhou hung up the phone, suddenly feeling unusually relaxed; he hadn’t felt so free and unburdened for many years.

He hailed a taxi, ”To the nearest police station.”

Sitting in the taxi, he hesitated for a moment, then called Gu Yunping, ”Dad, you have no right to hate my great-grandfather or my uncle; they owe the Gu Family nothing, they’ve given enough. What you gain always correlates with what you give, and when you gain more than you give, there’s always a price.”

Gu Yunping, ”...”

Gu Jizhou directly hung up, opened the taxi window, suddenly feeling the sunshine outside was beautiful.

Vaguely recalling the way she looked when he first met her.

It was such beautiful weather—

Thoughts drifted gradually, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

Gu Yunping called again to contact Louise.

Upon hearing Huo Jinnan’s voice when he picked up, his face changed drastically.

Huo Jinnan looked at the cigarette between his fingers, ”Brother-in-law, your ears are really slow, it’s been so long, and you still haven’t realized it’s me?”

”You... what do you mean?”

Gu Yunping felt a chill run halfway through his body.

Huo Jinnan mimicked Louise’s voice for a moment, and Gu Yunping almost dropped the phone in shock, breaking out in a cold sweat.

Huo Jinnan spoke with a cold and penetrating voice, ”Your master Wei De was arrested in Hong Kong, and I believe you’re next on the wanted list; you’d better find somewhere to hide.”

A voice both natural and intimidating, sending chills down the spine.

Gu Yunping frantically hung up the phone, quickly trying to contact Wei De but couldn’t reach him.

Huo Jinnan took a puff of his cigarette, glanced at the time, returned to the room, and continued with his lunch.

Qin Huan sat there silently, one was Gu Jizhou, the other was Gu Yunping, she had to avoid the suspicion!

Although not husband and wife in reality, yet—

She looked at Huo Jinnan, smiled at him, and served him some food.

Huo Jinnan looked at Qin Huan, ”Gu Jizhou went to surrender himself, never thought he still cared about the old man and you.”
