She fell silent for a moment, then sighed, “I thought that my grandparents would be just like my parents, my closest kin, able to fill the void left by their absence, but when I finally met them, I realized that my grandparents are still someone else’s parents and grandparents. They do not wholly belong to me.” “Moreover, what I share with them is only blood, while Xie Yumo and them share a deep bond formed over more than a decade of living together.”
“In the eyes of parents, their children are priceless treasures. No one can replace a child’s position in their hearts. But in the eyes of my grandparents, I am just one of their relatives.”
“It’s not that they don’t love me, but I know that my grandparents’ home is not my home. I’m just a guest…”
As she spoke, her voice filled with more and more sorrow and loss.
At the Ye family’s, she was a guest.
At her grandparents’ home, she was a guest.
Even here, she was a guest.
In this world, there was not a single place that was truly her home.
Only where her parents were could she call her home.
But she had no such luck in this lifetime.
“Why are you saying you don’t have a home? Isn’t this your home?” Gu Junzhu pinched her face, “Darling, haven’t you heard the saying? Before marriage, a daughter belongs to her father; after marriage, she belongs to her husband. Home is where the family who raised you is, but after you get married, that becomes your parents’ home, and your husband’s home becomes your home!” Gu Junzhu pulled her into his arm and stroked her shoulder, “So stop worrying. You’re now part of the Gu family. Wherever I am, that’s your home! Even if your parents were here, their home would still only be your parents’ home!” “That’s for others!” Ye Xingbei glared at him and pushed him away, “You know perfectly well, we’re just benefiting each other and just muddling through our days. How can we compare to other couples?”
Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow, “Didn’t we agree to muddle through together for a lifetime? In the future, we’ll have children; how are we different from other couples?”
Ye Xingbei tilted her head in thought, “… It doesn’t seem to be any different.”
She blinked, suddenly glancing at Gu Junzhu, “I just don’t know how many years ‘a lifetime’ is for you. Maybe in a few years, you will get tired of this life, and we will part ways!”
“Then let’s hurry up and have a few kids,” Gu Junzhu said, “Once we have children, we won’t be able to part ways for a lifetime!”
Ye Xingbei snorted, “Look at Xie Wenhui and Qin Huilan; they have two grown daughters but didn’t they just divorce?”
“Can Xie Wenhui and Qin Huilan be compared to us?” Gu Junzhu raised his eyebrows. “Are they selfish and narrow-minded, just like us?”
Ye Xingbei: “…Of course not! I am a good person; how can Xie Wenhui and Qin Huilan compare to me? You…”
She looked Gu Junzhu up and down, “I guess you’re passable!”
“Just passable?” Gu Junzhu pinched her face, turning her pretty mouth into a duckbill, “Tell me, what’s wrong with me? Am I selfish, narrow-minded, or something else?”
