Instinctively, he looked into the living room and saw his mother sitting on the carpet in front of the sofa. Her hair was in a mess, and she was hugging her knees and crying hysterically.
In his mind, his mother was elegant and cold. This was the first time he had seen his mother like this. He had never seen his mother lose her composure like this before.
"Mom."
He wanted to walk over to comfort her, but he didn’t expect her to stand up directly. She raised her hand to wipe her tears and casually tidied her hair. With red-rimmed eyes, she said tearfully, "Go out for dinner today and come home later."
With that, his mother went upstairs elegantly, leaving him alone to look at the mess in the living room.
Gu Zhou silently cleaned up the living room and left obediently.
Gu Zhou came back to his senses. He took out his phone and called Gu Ting.
The call went through very quickly. Gu Ting’s surprised voice came through. "Ah Zhou?"
Gu Ting’s voice was deep and strong.
Bai Hui crying helplessly in the living room flashed across Gu Zhou’s mind. His voice turned cold. "Where are you?"
"Europe. There’s something to settle here."
"Why didn’t you come to visit Grandma?" Gu Zhou frowned, his tone cold.
Gu Ting could naturally hear the displeasure in Gu Zhou’s tone. He pursed his lips slightly and was silent for a moment before saying, "There’s a problem here. I can’t leave for the time being. How’s Grandma’s health?"
"She’s fine." Gu Zhou could tell that Gu Ting was in a difficult position. He asked, "Is it very troublesome?"
"Yes."
"Do you need any help?"
"There’s no need," Gu Ting refused in a low voice.
When Gu Zhou heard Gu Ting’s words, he sighed slightly and said, "I just called Mom."
After a long time, he didn’t hear Gu Ting’s voice. He frowned and asked, "How long has it been since you visited her?"
"I still have something to do here. I’ll visit Grandma when I’m done."
Hearing Gu Ting’s perfunctory words, Gu Zhou knew that Gu Ting did not want to mention Bai Hui again. "Yes."
"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"
