Chapter 539: Going to Visit Grandfather
Perhaps this was how truly wealthy families should be—educated, refined, and well-rounded.
Shu Pan also felt fortunate that she hadn’t been harassed or looked down upon by anyone. She suspected that it was Song Can who didn’t like her.
However, Song Can’s manners were commendable. She didn’t make things difficult for her in public.
Although Song Can didn’t approve of her, Shu Pan was still grateful to have met Gu Shaoting and found lifelong happiness. Despite their past separations, it made them cherish what they had even more.
“What’s wrong? You seem lost in thought,” Gu Shaoting’s deep and magnetic voice sounded in her ear, showing genuine concern.
“Nothing,” she shook her head and smiled gently at him, “I just feel so happy.”
Gu Shaoting reached out to touch her hair, then planted a kiss on her forehead, saying softly, “We deserve to be happy.”
He actually kissed her in front of so many people, making Shu Pan feel a bit flustered. Her blush made it hard for her to lift her head.
Everyone chatted and laughed, enjoying themselves with food and drinks.
It wasn’t until late that the relatives and friends left.
When Gu Shaoting and Shu Pan finally lay down to rest, it was around 11 o’clock.
Gu Shaoting suddenly remembered Grandpa and decided to discuss it with Shu Pan.
“Panpan, let’s find some time to visit Grandpa,” Gu Shaoting said earnestly.
“Grandpa? Sure!” Shu Pan replied excitedly. In their first marriage, when they were on the verge of divorce, the person she couldn’t bear to leave behind was Grandpa. He had always been the kindest person to her, very affectionate. At that time, she regretted not being able to give him a great-grandchild.
Since being with Gu Shaoting, she hadn’t felt comfortable suggesting they visit Grandpa on her own, fearing that it might lead to thoughts of reconciliation. So, she had been waiting for him to bring it up.
And now he finally did.
“How about we bring Grandpa back here to live with us? That way, we can take care of him, and with Joy around, he’ll surely be happy,” Shu Pan suggested.
Little did she know that her thoughts aligned perfectly with his. It was as if they could read each other’s minds.
Truly, she was the person he loved.
“That sounds like a wonderful idea. I’m all for it,” Gu Shaoting said happily.
“Okay, I’ll tidy up the guest room on the ground floor tomorrow for Grandpa’s convenience,” Shu Pan suggested.
“Great. Let’s get some rest. We’ll go to Second Uncle’s house tomorrow to see Grandpa and bring him back,” Gu Shaoting couldn’t resist planting a kiss on Shu Pan’s lips.
“Mm.”
The next morning, after everyone had breakfast, they set off for Second Uncle’s house.
This time, Joy didn’t go with Grandpa and Grandma because she liked their new home with its spacious yard and was planning to get a puppy.
Seeing them leave so early, she was puzzled and asked, “Daddy, where are we going?”
“We’re going to see Great Grandpa. When you meet him, you should call him that, okay?” Gu Shaoting patiently explained although Joy was still unfamiliar with the term “Great Grandpa.”
“Okay,” Joy replied, still somewhat confused.
Shu Pan felt excited and guilty at the same time. It had been five or six years since she last saw Grandpa, and she didn’t know how he was doing now. She felt ashamed for not being more filial.
