Chapter 246 Let's Go
After arranging for the elderly and children to get into the car, Xu Sui was still a little worried about Qin Yunzhou. She sat in the passenger seat and couldn't help but look in Qin Yunzhou's direction.
She wasn't sure about the middle-aged man's identity at first, but after noticing Qin Yunzhou's change in mood, she vaguely guessed something.
Even if that person wasn't a member of the Gu family, they were still inextricably linked to the Gu family.
Even... it could be that Commander Gu. Although he wasn't wearing a military uniform, his demeanor was unmistakable; he clearly came from the military.
……
"Was that woman next to you just now the same one you married in the military arts troupe?" Gu Linshan's gaze passed over Qin Yunzhou and landed on the jeep not far away.
Qin Yunzhou nodded slightly. "Mm."
Gu Linshan paused for a moment before saying, "It looks a little different from what I've heard."
He remembered that the woman had a bad reputation in the army, even a notorious one, and all she had was a pretty face.
Unfortunately, he was wicked.
Qin Yunzhou immediately sensed the underlying meaning in Gu Linshan's words. He remained silent for a moment before speaking earnestly, "She is different. She is very good."
Gu Linshan was somewhat surprised and took another look at the young man in front of him. "You've changed a lot over the years. With your personality, you would never have said such things before."
Although he is usually busy with work and can't take care of his family, he has watched this child grow up. The child has always been calm, reserved, and unhurried.
That doesn't seem like someone who's so straightforward.
It seems that getting married really makes a difference.
Qin Yunzhou pursed his lips and after a long while, he finally spoke, "People change."
In the past, he never imagined that he would marry Xu Sui, fall in love with her, and have two children with her.
"Your mother and grandfather miss you. Now that you're back in Beijing, remember to go back and visit them when you have time."
"You still bear the surname Gu. As long as you're willing, you're still my and your mother's son." Gu Linshan sighed and reached out to pat Qin Yunzhou on the shoulder.
The next second, he dodged it without making a sound, and his hand froze in mid-air after hitting nothing.
For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat dull and oppressive.
Qin Yunzhou took a step back to increase the distance between himself and Gu Linshan, lowered his eyes, and spoke respectfully as if he were addressing a leader in the military.
"Commander Gu, I'll visit Grandpa Gu when I have time."
He was practically raised by his grandfather, who taught him a lot and treated him very well.
Back then, after the truth about my background was revealed.
His grandfather also wrote him letters and made phone calls to comfort him, saying that no matter what, he was still his own grandson.
During the days I spent recuperating in my hometown.
Some of the things Gu Shuang sent were actually arranged by his father, but he didn't say so openly so that Gu Shuang wouldn't find out.
But after being grandfather and grandson for so many years, how could he not guess?
Gu Linshan withdrew his hand, which had been frozen in mid-air, and looked at his adopted son with a complicated expression before sighing again.
"You're still keeping your distance from us."
"Yunzhou, you should know that your surname is still Gu, not Qin. What your mother said back then was just said in anger. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She didn't really mean to make you leave the Gu family."
At first, it was because he forgot to change his surname while recovering from his injury. Later, he wanted to change it back, but found that he couldn't. It's already very clear who was behind this.
Therefore, he still retains the surname Gu in the military.
Qin Yunzhou lowered his eyes to conceal his emotions, his voice slightly hoarse, "Commander Gu, it's getting late, I have things to do at home, I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, he turned and left without hesitation.
Gu Linshan stood there, watching his adopted son's departing figure, his gaze lingering for a long time.
The other party got into the jeep and drove away.
The bodyguard, Xiao Zhang, who was following beside him, asked, "Sir, should I go and find out where the political commissar is staying now?"
He was Gu Linshan's bodyguard who had been with him for a long time and had known Qin Yunzhou for a while, so they had some connection.
But he really couldn't understand why Qin Yunzhou chose the Gu family in the Beijing Military Region compound over an ordinary family in a small place.
To put it bluntly, no matter where you work, having connections is always much better than not having them, and you can climb the ladder much faster.
Any normal person would know what to choose. Moreover, Qin Yunzhou grew up in a military compound and was used to life in Beijing and the good life of a high-ranking official. Why would he go to that place to suffer? Even though he was almost forced to retire due to injury, he didn't know to come back.
Those who are unaware of the situation probably think that the Gu family showed no affection whatsoever and kicked the person out of the house without hesitation. In reality, that's not the case, after all, both sons are very outstanding.
He knew some of the inside story.
I heard that Grandpa Gu originally insisted on keeping Qin Yunzhou as his grandson, but the Chief's wife felt more sorry for her own son and wanted Qin Yunzhou to avoid Gu Shu and not appear in front of Gu Shu unless necessary, and to come home as little as possible.
Because of this incident, Qin Yunzhou voluntarily chose to leave the Gu family.
Gu Linshan was silent for a moment, then said, "Go investigate."
Although he's not her biological son, she's called him "Dad" so many times, it would be a lie to say she has no feelings for him at all.
"Don't tell the old man yet. He's getting old, and if he finds out, he'll definitely rush to see Yunzhou again."
Yunzhou was raised by the old man.
Both he and his wife were very busy and had no time to take care of their child. Gradually, as time went by, they seemed to have become estranged from each other.
"Yes, sir."
"By the way, sir, the matter you asked me to investigate has yielded results. Regiment Commander Gu is indeed dating that female comrade named Lu Xiaoya. He originally planned to bring her to your door yesterday, but it seems that due to some reasons, the two of them did not come."
"I've investigated. Yesterday, a very pretty woman came to deliver something at the gate of our military compound. At that time, Commander Gu happened to be there with Lu Xiaoya, but as soon as he saw the woman, he chased after her and left Lu Xiaoya at the gate."
Gu Shanlin frowned slightly, his voice deepening, "Is that so?"
"Have you figured out who he was chasing?"
He already has a boyfriend, yet he's still chasing after other women. How come he didn't know before that Gu Shu was so irresponsible?
"I haven't found out about that yet, but it seems that the other party and Chief of Staff Fang's daughter, Fang Yue, were college classmates. That woman was there to deliver something to Fang Yue, so Fang Yue should know. I'll ask her again when I get back."
……
I'm back home.
Xu Sui noticed that Qin Yunzhou seemed to be in a bad mood and was somewhat distracted.
