Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 763: The Once Noble Young Master Who Fell from the Clouds to the Dust
Chapter 763: Chapter 763: The Once Noble Young Master Who Fell from the Clouds to the Dust
He knew he had no right or position to seek out Gu Qiaoqiao.
Although he still bore the Gu surname, he had long been kicked out of the Gu Family’s main gate by Gu Qingfeng.
Yet, he had no choice but to come.
In his home, he was the only one who could be considered normal now.
With his hands crossed under the table, Gu Jiansheng appeared somewhat uneasy at this moment.
No wonder everyone says, "It’s easy to adapt from frugality to luxury, but hard from luxury to frugality." frёewebηovel.cѳm
Seeing Gu Jiansheng’s current state, Gu Qiaoqiao also felt much emotion.
The first time she had seen him.
He was a spirited, exuberant young man.
Handsome.
Well-born.
His family wealthy, powerful, and well-connected.
So, in his world, there was always brilliant sunshine and the fragrant bidding of birds and flowers!
Although he was older than Gu Qiaoqiao.
He seemed even more naive than Gu Qiaoqiao.
And as he gradually became aware of the truths of these matters.
It was like a brightly burning candle.
Melting inch by inch, finally turning into a pool of red candle tears.
This was now Gu Jiansheng.
The space between his brows no longer held any spirited exuberance.
There was only resignation, decay, and sadness about his current state of life.
For someone who had been cast from the skies to the dust in half a year, this former prince could be said to be doing fairly well now.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression remained calm, treating him as she had before.
This calmness made Gu Jiansheng feel much better.
Finally gathering his courage, his voice hoarse, "I know I shouldn’t have come to you today; I don’t have the right to speak of this, but I really can’t bear it anymore. I dare not meet the Old Patriarch; he will surely drive me out. You are the only one I can ask for help."
"What do you want me to do?" asked Gu Qiaoqiao.
"My grandmother is in very bad condition; she is just suffering now."
"Really?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked lightly.
Gu Jiansheng mustered his courage again and said softly, "I know my grandmother deserves her fate, but she is already of this age; let her be liberated early."
Gu Qiaoqiao’s fingers rested on the table.
She tapped unconsciously a few times.
Suddenly, she felt that this action was very similar to someone else.
She quickly withdrew her hand.
Then, she picked up her teacup, took a sip, and placed it back on the table, looking at Gu Jiansheng across from her.
Both were sensible people; there was no need to beat around the bush.
There were some things that she felt Gu Jiansheng needed to be aware of clearly.
For now, she and Gu Jiansheng were like well water not violating river water.
But one day.
They might become sworn enemies.
There was also the unstable factor of Gu Jianhua.
Given that man’s intelligence.
He might lie low for decades before seeking revenge.
Or perhaps he would stay abroad and never return.
However, his wife and children were currently living in her parental home.
Truth be told, his family really didn’t have much to do with them.
So, they weren’t involved in this matter.
After all, they were unaware of Ning Wanru and Gu Jianhua’s actions.
Moreover, they had once had an unpleasant incident over some issue.
So, their interactions were not that frequent.
After the incident with Gu Jianhua, his wife took the children back to her parental home.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought about it, then lifted her gaze to look across, gazing earnestly at her Gu Jiansheng.
She began slowly, "Gu Jiansheng, I understand your feelings, you grew up alongside Ning Wanru, and naturally, your affection for her is different from others."
