Chapter 301 Ayao, do you still want to marry Ayi?
The team Xiao Lin found was indeed capable, and every step was progressing well. The situation was getting better and better for Gu Zhiyao. On this day, Gu Zhiyao arranged to meet with Old Madam He.
Because He Yi had kept it a secret, the old lady only just found out that Gu Zhiyao was suing for custody, and she was immediately dumbfounded.
Gu Zhiyao's eyes were slightly apologetic. "Grandma He, you said last time that if Chenchen were with you, his life would be brilliant and full of honor. I agree with those words, but I still can't accept that Chenchen is not by my side. If Chenchen were with me, maybe I couldn't give him a lot of glory and honor, but I would do my best to raise him and make him a strong and upright man."
Seeing Gu Zhiyao's resolute expression, the old lady gradually calmed down and said, "That day when you went back to Canada, Yifei wanted to go with you, but his mother disagreed. His mother took away his ID card and passport. He almost broke ties with his mother in order to get these documents. Although Yifei was naughty and didn't like to study since he was a child, he was still very gentle. He would stay silent when something happened and rarely lost his temper."
That was the first time I'd ever seen Yifei so angry. He berated each and every one of us, saying we'd bullied you, causing you to be separated from your family. He told you how hard you'd suffered all these years, and he even cried and begged me to give Chenchen back to you, then asked his father to seek justice for you. Yifei is a good kid; indeed, none of us are as good as him!
It turned out to be the case.
Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but recall that day when she was talking to Xiao Lin about how Yifei was able to go to Canada smoothly. She guessed that it must have been difficult, but she didn't know that he had paid so much. For her sake, he cursed those closest to him and even broke ties with his mother!
Tears welled up silently in Gu Zhiyao's eyes.
The old lady suddenly said again, "Ayao, Grandma has a question for you. Will you answer Grandma honestly?"
Gu Zhiyao was taken aback, then nodded, "Grandma He, please speak."
"Do you still love A-Yi? Now, do you still want to marry A-Yi?"
Gu Zhiyao never expected the old lady to ask such a question.
"If you still love Ayi, Grandma will arrange for you to marry him. Do you remember what I told you about Axue before? I didn't stand firm back then, which led to that accident. Grandma regrets it very much. I often think that if I had been more firm and made Ayi's father marry Axue, Axue wouldn't have met that heartless man, and that tragedy wouldn't have happened. So this time, Grandma doesn't want to miss out again. As long as you're willing, Grandma will do everything in her power to help you..."
"No need! Grandma He, thank you for your kindness!" Gu Zhiyao finally spoke up. "That's right. Back then, because of that promise, I fell in love with Brother He Yi and waited for him to marry me. But perhaps this is our destiny. By some twist of fate, he ended up with Zheng Yuanxi."
Actually, what happened at the fire scene is meaningless now. He Yi and Zheng Yuanxi might have gotten together initially because of that promise, but after years together and going through so much, it's no longer related to that promise. Please don't dwell on it anymore. Right now… I just want Chenchen back. As for He Yi, Grandma He, I don't love him anymore, really, I don't!"
"Don't you love me anymore? Are you sure?"
“I’m sure. Grandma He, you might find it unbelievable, or wonder how my love for him could change so easily, but it’s true. When someone hurts you repeatedly, shows you no respect or pity, even the warmest heart will slowly cool down. So I’m very sure I don’t love him anymore, Grandma He. Thank you for your concern, I appreciate it. When Chenchen comes back to me, I will try my best to bring him back to China once a year so you can meet him.”
The old lady was no longer able to speak.
All she could hear was Gu Zhiyao's words, "I don't love you anymore."
She could tell that Gu Zhiyao wasn't just saying it; she really didn't love him anymore!
If such a deep love could disappear, it shows how outrageous what Ah Yi did to others was.
Ah Yi, you silly boy, you let such a good girl slip away, you deserve it! You're just unlucky!
"Grandma, to be honest, there's another reason I came to see you today. I want to see Chenchen and make it clear to him that I am his biological mother. I'm worried that Chenchen will need to appear in court, and I don't want him to only find out then. I want to tell him beforehand so he can be mentally prepared," Gu Zhiyao then said, changing the subject.
The old lady then recovered from her regret and disappointment and readily agreed, "Okay, Grandma understands. Grandma will help you say it."
Chenchen arrived quickly.
Although they hadn't seen each other for a month, Chenchen still had strong feelings for Gu Zhiyao. He immediately exclaimed happily, "Aunt Gu, we meet again!"
Looking at her son whom she had been longing for day and night, Gu Zhiyao was also very excited. She hugged him tightly and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Although Chenchen was a little puzzled, he didn't think much of it and quietly let Gu Zhiyao hold him.
A moment later, Gu Zhiyao straightened the little guy, reached out and touched his face. Just as she was about to speak, the old lady said, "Chenchen, your great-grandmother has something to tell you."
"Okay, what do you want to tell me, Great-Grandma?" Chenchen's attention was temporarily diverted.
Looking at his obedient appearance, the old lady felt a pang of reluctance, but she still resolutely said, "What your great-grandmother wants to tell you is that your Aunt Gu loves you so much, and you like her so much because she is your biological mother. You and Niu Niu were both carried by Aunt Gu for ten months, enduring immense pain and risking her life to bring you into the world."
Even though a child of five years old is still very young, he understands some things, especially since Chenchen grew up in such an environment, he is more mature than the average person.
He also understood what his great-grandmother meant by those words.
He was immediately stunned, then quickly looked at Gu Zhiyao.
Gu Zhiyao's tears, which she had finally managed to stop, started flowing again, and then she smiled with relief.
"Chenchen? Call me Mom, Aunt Gu is your real mother!" The old lady also teared up.
"Chenchen, I'm sorry. Back then, I didn't have the ability to leave you with your great-grandmother. But for the past five years, I've been thinking about you and trying to find a way to bring you back to my side. Are you willing to forgive me? Are you willing to give me a chance?" Gu Zhiyao said, her voice choked with emotion.
The air fell silent for a long time.
Everyone calmed down and focused their attention on each other.
My mood was like a thousand troops marching by.
It kept making a banging sound.
Gu Zhiyao's was even worse.
She stared intently at her son, eagerly awaiting his reply, yet fearing that it wouldn't be the reply she hoped for!
