Dr. Su, let's have a love affair

Chapter 235 Gu Jingzhou, He Has Really Changed

Middle-aged adults are working and living leisurely, and children are growing up leisurely.

Three years later, Gu Buwang and Ji Niannian graduated from university and held their wedding as scheduled.

Ji Niannian officially married into the Gu family and moved into the Gu family.

The moment he heard the daughter of the woman he loved calling him "Dad", Gu Jingzhou's eyes became moist and his heart was filled with a mixture of emotions.

I don’t know whether I am happier and more relieved, or more disappointed and sad.

Shortly after their wedding, the two children chose to go abroad together to continue their studies.

Gu Buwang is very sensible.

Knowing that he was the only grandson in the Gu family, he took the initiative to tell Gu Bodao and Gu Jingzhou before going abroad that he would come back after graduation to help his father take over the Gu family.

Hearing his son say this, Gu Jingzhou felt that the burden that had been on his shoulders for decades was suddenly relieved a lot.

Although he is in his early fifties, he feels more energetic and motivated about his career.

He also planned to help his son manage Gu's business better during the few years he was studying abroad, so that he would be able to take over the business more easily when he returned.

If her son can relieve some of the pressure in his career, Ji Niannian will be able to live a happier life.

If Ji Niannian can live a happier life, Su Xiaoxiao will also be more at ease and happy.

Thinking that his hard work in running Gu's company could also contribute to Su Xiaoxiao's happiness, Gu Jingzhou felt extremely fulfilled.

I also feel that my daily efforts are extremely meaningful.

As her son got married and went abroad, Ye Zisan's mentality was exactly the opposite of Gu Jingzhou's.

She also knew that her son would inherit the Gu family in the future, and she would eventually have to leave the future of the Ye family to the Ye family's descendants.

Since she always has to hand it over to others, and she is now of a certain age, sometimes she feels physically exhausted when she works overtime or has too many social engagements.

It is better to accept the reality and let others manage it as soon as possible.

So in the second year after Gu Buwang went abroad, she officially resigned from the position of president of Ye Group.

Then, I started my retirement life early by joining a group tour abroad.

For most of her life, except for the one year or so of happy and relaxed marriage life that Gu Jingzhou had given her, she had really lived too tiringly for the rest of the decades.

I have been under great mental stress all year round, my brain is tired, and I have no joy in my heart.

She was not really keen on traveling before, but now, she really wants to experience it.

She wanted to use this lifestyle to get rid of loneliness and reduce the loneliness and melancholy of not being able to love Gu Jingzhou and be with him in this life.

Every time she travels to a new country with a tour group, she, like most tourists, takes some beautiful photos and posts them on WeChat Moments as a souvenir.

Also express your feelings at the same time.

Su Xiaoxiao occasionally leaves greetings on her circle of friends.

Every time Gu Jingzhou browsed Ye Zisan’s Moments, he paid attention to Su Xiaoxiao’s updates.

He also always insisted on giving her birthday gifts every year in the name of her brother.

Having reached the age of fifty, Su Xiaoxiao and Ji Xingyuan have become quite indifferent to this matter.

If you think Gu Jingzhou likes to give it as a gift, just let him give it as long as he is happy.

Both of them felt that it was unnecessary to embarrass each other and fuss over such a small matter.

During the years when the two children went abroad, apart from Lin Jiahui, their aunt Su Aizhen, who had been taken to the Ji family by Su Xiaoxiao to live in her old age, was still alive.

Gu Bodao and the three elders of the Ji family were all getting old and passed away one after another.

The successive deaths of their family members also made Ji Xingyuan and Su Xiaoxiao cherish the days they spent together even more.

Apart from occasionally having dinner with her best friend Tang Qiuyun, the two of them spend every day together after get off work.

Either go for a walk on the beach together, or watch a romantic movie, or stay at home together to watch TV, kiss and hug, or video chat with the children.

Life in leisure time is simple and relaxing.

During this period, Ji Xingyuan accompanied her to pay homage to her biological father.

Her biological father later remarried and had another pair of children.

She quietly gave some financial support to the half-siblings, who were not well off.

After that, I don’t plan to contact them more deliberately.

No matter what kind of relationship it is, even if they are blood relatives, for her, if the fate is too shallow, she doesn't want to deliberately maintain it.

I don't want to force myself to deepen our relationship.

She believes that letting things take their course and doing what comes to mind is the best way for people to get along with each other.

Five years later, Gu Buwang and Ji Niannian both returned to China after completing their studies.

Gu Jingzhou, who was approaching his 60s, became the chairman of Gu Group and retired to the second line, while Gu Buwang became the president.

Ji Niannian went to work at Ji's to share some of the pressure for her father Ji Xingyuan, and then wait for her younger brother Ji Yifan to graduate and take over Ji's.

With his son managing the company, Gu Jingzhou also replanned his life.

He cannot completely let go of the company for the time being. His son still needs his guidance and it will take two or three years for him to become qualified for the position of president.

However, as the chairman of the board, he naturally doesn't have to report to the company every day.

So I have a lot more time to relax at home.

He unknowingly fell in love with taking care of the flowers and plants in the villa yard.

When the weather was good, he never let the servants do this job. He personally pruned the branches, cut the leaves, fertilized and watered each pot and tree.

I also like to personally pick out and buy some new varieties from the flower and bird market from time to time.

Therefore, he can name and recognize more and more varieties of flowers and plants, and he is becoming more and more familiar with them.

He also started learning cooking from the chef at home.

He and the cook often cook dinner at home.

Lin Jiahui is nearly eighty years old. At such an old age, she can still eat delicious dishes made by her son. Every time she eats, the wrinkles on her face are blooming with happiness.

Originally, she was just like Gu Bodao before he passed away, feeling sorry for her son who had been single for so many years.

But seeing that her son seemed in a good mood every day since his grandson and his wife returned home, she felt much more relieved and at ease.

Ji Niannian was able to eat dinner made by Gu Jingzhou, her former uncle and now her father-in-law.

She also felt a strong sense of happiness from marrying into this family.

When chatting about this with Su Xiaoxiao on the phone several times, she praised Gu Jingzhou, her father-in-law, a lot.

Every time Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she smiled slightly and felt very happy in her heart.

Gu Jingzhou was able to live a fulfilling and happy life, and no one felt more relieved than she did.

In addition to starting to enjoy tending flowers and plants and learning to cook, Gu Jingzhou also picked up his painting skills, which he had been good at since childhood.

Sometimes, he would spend most of the day alone in Dongcheng Mansion, just to concentrate on painting a picture he wanted to paint.

He always enjoys this kind of focused time.

Sometimes, he would carry his drawing board to the wild, climb mountains to exercise his body, enjoy the scenery, and sketch at the same time, which was the best of all three.

Occasionally, he would post a picture of the beautiful scenery in front of him on his Moments.

Whenever Su Xiaoxiao saw him post such down-to-earth and beautiful Moments, she could feel that he had really changed.

Become calm, peaceful and vast.

However, he still insisted on giving her a bouquet of lilies, a cake, and a handwritten birthday card on her birthday every year.

Gu Jingzhou like this would occasionally make her feel that she was still the stubborn young person she was more than 30 years ago.
