"How could she be like Gu Xiangwen?" He Zhichu didn't think much of it. "Nianzhi is very friendly, lively, and talkative. As long as she wants to, she can get along well with anyone. And Gu Xiangwen has interpersonal disorder. Have you ever seen him talk to anyone nicely? Except for Nianzhi … "
"Besides, Auntie Qin is like a stranger to Nianzhi other than giving birth to her."
"Nianzhi isn't like any of them." He Zhichu curled his lips. "If she wants to be like someone, she's more like me. After all, she grew up with me from six to twelve years old. She's also very talented in the law. "
He Chengjian: "…"
How could such a fatherly smile appear on He Zhichu's face?
He Chengjian felt very upset.
He Zhichu didn't want to talk about these two people anymore. He quickly changed the topic. "Then what about the welcoming banquet? You promised her to leave the He family, but you still have to hide your identity. Does that mean you don't have to hold the banquet? "
"… We can wait for now. She doesn't want to get engaged and married right away. "He Chengjian didn't want He Zhichu to be sad." After she comes back willingly … "
He Zhichu reached out and made a "pause" gesture. "Stop. So you listened to Auntie Qin's opinion and rejected my suggestion. "
He Chengjian: "…"
He Zhichu stood up calmly. "Looks like my mother has been dead for so many years. It's time for a new generation to replace the old."
"Zhichu!" He Chengjian panicked. He stood up and growled, "What do you mean by that?! What do you mean by a new generation to replace the old?! I've only had Su Wen in my heart! "
"Really?" He Zhichu's expression was calm to the point of indifference. "But that doesn't stop you from listening to others. Moreover, between your son and your wife, you chose your wife's opinion. Isn't that obvious?"
"My mother is in your heart, and only in your heart. Your mind is now occupied by Qin Yaoguang. " He Zhichu pointed at his head. "But I don't blame you. We're all adults, and we don't care about who we'll be for the rest of our lives. If you were the one who died first, I would also persuade my mother to remarry. "
He Chengjian's lips trembled violently. His face gradually turned pale, and his rosy lips turned purple.
He Zhichu looked at him and pursed his lips. "Don't be agitated. I didn't mean to criticize you. But I have never meddled in your affairs with other people, and you must not meddle in my affairs. "
"But Yaoguang saved your life after all …" He Chengjian said in a trembling voice, "You were terminally ill. The best doctors in the world said you wouldn't live to adulthood. It was Yaoguang who proposed the gene therapy. For you, she experimented many times and finally gave birth to Nianzhi …"
"I know you don't like her, and I never wanted you to call her mom, but we can't be heartless. Su Wen gave birth to you, but Yao Guang also gave you a second life! "
He Zhichu rubbed his temples in pain. "I'll remember your kindness to me. But if you think that because she saved my life, my life belongs to her and I have to listen to her, then please take this life back. I don't want to live anymore, okay? "
His eyes gradually reddened, but he gritted his teeth and tried his best to restrain himself.
"The beginning! That's not what I meant! " He Chengjian's voice became serious. "Yaoguang never wanted you to do anything for her. She saved you for me and Su Wen, and also to challenge the pinnacle of medicine."
He paused and continued, "Yaoguang has a straightforward temper and speaks bluntly, but she doesn't have any bad intentions. People who devote themselves to scientific research are all like that. "
"Yes, she's good to everyone, but she abandoned her own daughter." He Zhichu smiled bitterly. "Actually, what right do I have to criticize her? Isn't everything she did for me? "
He Zhichu had very complicated feelings about Qin Yaoguang.
He should be grateful to her. After all, without her, he would have died at the age of 16 like He Zhichu over there.
However, Qin Yaoguang had been so good to him, but now it was obvious that she didn't treat Gu Nianzhi as her own daughter.
To her, Gu Nianzhi was just a medicine to treat He Zhichu.
This way of expressing her feelings confused He Zhichu.
He had thought that no matter what, Qin Yaoguang was Nianzhi's biological mother. What mother wouldn't love her daughter?
Perhaps he was wrong. In this world, there really were mothers who didn't love their biological daughters.
He remembered that when Nianzhi was still young, she had been rather distant from this mother.
Qin Yaoguang didn't come to see her often, but she didn't mind.
The happiest time for her was when Gu Xiangwen came to see her.
However, Gu Xiangwen was also very busy, even busier than Qin Yaoguang. Once he went into the laboratory to do experiments, he could not come out for half a year.
Gu Nianzhi would be happy for a long time if he came by occasionally.
She would place the gifts he brought on the floor of the room and carefully paste a small note on each gift with the date of the next year before putting it back in the box.
Then, she would open the box every day and take out a gift in chronological order. This way, it would be as if Gu Xiangwen came to see her every day.
Although He Zhichu disliked Gu Xiangwen very much, he had to admit that he was a good father.
Of course, this was compared to Qin Yaoguang.
Compared to He Chengjian, Gu Xiangwen was at least as far away from a good father as two parallel universes.
Gu Xiangwen was a genius, a well-deserved genius.
Geniuses usually had weird habits and bad tempers.
He really could not get along with anyone. He was very impatient with the laboratory staff under him. Whenever he was unhappy, he would scold them, "Your brain is as small as an atom. You can't even see it with a high-powered microscope", or "Are you a paramecium? There's only one single cell in his entire body? "
The assault was very serious.
If it weren't for the fact that he was too talented and could publish many world-class theses with him, those people wouldn't have "endured the humiliation" and become his students.
However, Gu Xiangwen was surprisingly patient when he was with little Gu Nianzhi.
He Zhichu remembered that Gu Nianzhi had just turned six that year. Gu Xiangwen had given her a copy of Quantum.
Cereus. Quantum Mechanics for Cereus.
He Zhichu disagreed at the time and said, "Uncle Gu, isn't this book too profound for a six-year-old child?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Xiangwen said, "This is a children's book on quantum mechanics that I specially wrote for her."
He Zhichu knelt on the spot.
He had personally written a book for his daughter, and it was a children's book on quantum mechanics …
The book was still in He Zhichu's room. It was the only thing that Gu Xiangwen had left behind that hadn't been smashed and burned by the furious He Chengjian.
He Zhichu wasn't very surprised by the conflict between Qin Yaoguang and Gu Nianzhi, but he was still very sad. He felt sad for Gu Nianzhi, so he wanted to give her more love, but she didn't need it.
He Zhichu put his hands in his pockets and clenched his fists tightly. His fingernails dug deep into his palms.
After his wife passed away, the most important person in He Chengjian's heart was his son, He Zhichu.
Now that He Zhichu was dissatisfied with Qin Yaoguang, He Chengjian chose to give up on Qin Yaoguang without hesitation.
He couldn't make his son unhappy. This was the treasure that Su Wen had left him. If he didn't take good care of her, he wouldn't have the face to see her in the afterlife.
"Since Nianzhi is leaving the He family, I don't plan on staying either." He Zhichu put his hands in his pockets. His figure was tall and straight, like a bamboo pole. "Take care."
"Zhichu! Forgive me this once … I really didn't mean to reject you … "
He Chengjian felt a wave of panic in his heart. Had he really done something wrong?
Wasn't the person He Zhichu loved the most in his heart Gu Nianzhi?
He only wanted to help him be with the person he liked. What was wrong with him?!
Perhaps he was wrong.
The last thing he should have done was listen to Qin Yaoguang's suggestion today. He rejected He Zhichu's suggestion and even agreed to Gu Nianzhi move out of the He family …
He Chengjian staggered out from behind the desk and said anxiously, "I'll go find Nianzhi and ask her to stay. Let's have a welcoming banquet. It's happening right away. I'll ask the housekeeper and orderlies to prepare the list … "
He Zhichu held his arm with a pained expression. "Dad, don't be like this."
"Zhichu, I really just want you to be fine …" He Chengjian's tears streamed down his face. "I've let your mother down. I've let you down. I …"
He suddenly raised his other hand and slapped himself hard in the face!
He Zhichu was stunned for a moment. He quickly pressed down on He Chengjian's other arm and said sternly, "Dad!"
"Zhichu, it's dad's fault. Dad will divorce Qin Yaoguang immediately!" He Chengjian couldn't care less now. "Don't go. And Nianzhi, I'll go talk to her myself, apologize to her, and ask her to stay, okay? "
Faced with such a father, a father who was so devoted to him, He Zhichu couldn't continue insisting on moving out.
He knew that his father's illness was already very serious, and this illness wasn't a genetic illness. Even if Gu Nianzhi was there, she wouldn't be able to cure him.
It was an injury he had suffered in his early years in the military that caused his organs to fail.
To put it bluntly, he was old.
Coupled with the fact that his heart wasn't very good, if the stimulation was too much, he could die at any time.
He Zhichu's heart was burning, but he finally endured it and said, "Dad, take good care of yourself. I won't move out. But don't worry about Nianzhi and me. "
"Really?" He Chengjian grabbed his arm tightly. "Don't you need me to apologize? It's all Wen Shouyi's fault today! She kept pushing her around! She was pushed around until she had no choice but to say she wanted to move out … and even asked Qin Zhining to be her security guard. "
He Zhichu knew Gu Nianzhi very well.
If she didn't want to leave, even ten Wen Shouyis wouldn't be able to make her leave.
She had agreed to leave, so there was a high chance that she wanted to leave.
Why did she want to leave?
Because she didn't want to live with him and was worried that they would be too involved.
He Zhichu didn't say this out loud. He held He Chengjian's arm and walked him back to the bedroom. He said, "Since I'm back, you can rest in peace and recuperate. The security in the study needs to be increased. No one can be let in if they don't meet the security level. Even if you agree. "
"Okay, okay, okay. Whatever you say." He Chengjian got into bed after washing up. He obeyed He Zhichu's words.
"And Auntie Qin. She's not a military personnel, so the security level she enjoys is too high." He Zhichu was still brooding over Qin Yaoguang's insistence on performing the surgery on Gu Nianzhi. "Wen Shouyi too. I'd like to see when these two will perform the surgery on themselves."
"Okay, okay, okay. Whatever you want." He Chengjian was about to become Mr. Three. Other than "Okay, okay, okay, okay" and "Okay, okay, okay."
He Zhichu took care of He Chengjian to sleep before turning off the lights and leaving.
He had been gone for four years. His father had really aged a lot.
He Zhichu had originally planned to stay on the other side and not come back, but now that he was back, he had a way to come back.
He wasn't in a hurry at all.
With Gu Nianzhi, he had a lifetime to accompany her as she slowly grew old.
Walking out of He Chengjian's bedroom, he saw He Chengjian's orderly standing at the door with an anxious look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
"Young Master He, Miss Gu has packed her suitcase and is about to leave!"
