    195.Old love

    By the time Gu Pan got home from Xu Jingtang’s place, it was already past one in the morning…

    Fortunately, Gu’s parents and Gu’s mother had already gone to bed, and Gu Pan wisely chose to wash up in the hotel, then went home and fell asleep.

    Early the next morning, Gu’s mother was a little surprised to see Gu Pan.

    “I thought you didn’t come back last night.”

    Gu Pan:……

    After breakfast, Gu Pan didn’t even say what he was going to do today, but Gu’s mother had already arranged everything for Gu Pan.

    “You go visit grandma later, and then eat at grandma’s house for lunch. See what grandma says in the afternoon. If you have nothing to do, you can go shopping with Xiao Xu.”

    Dad Gu had a tragic expression like ‘My daughter is going to belong to someone else’: “If you don’t come back for dinner tonight, remember to call back…”

    “…” Gu Pan knew what her parents were thinking, but what was even more annoying was that she had no room for excuse in this matter.

    So she had no choice but to go to her grandma’s house in dejection with her tail between her legs.

    On the way to grandma’s house, Gu Pan received a call from Xu Jingtang.

    “Are you up?”

    Gu Pan glanced at the time and said, “I’m up…it’s past nine o’clock now…”

    “After all, you slept late last night.” Xu Jingtang said calmly, “It’s normal to sleep a little longer today.”

    “…” Gu Pan felt as if he was being targeted by the whole world from the moment he got up today, “I’ve already had breakfast and am on my way to grandma’s house!”

    Xu Jingtang listened to Gu Pan’s serious tone and smiled silently: “Then send me the address and I will go directly.”

    Go, go see grandma?Still together!?

    Gu Pan thought for a while and thought that after all, they were not in a relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. It was easy to explain what happened yesterday to his parents, but if he brought it to his grandma, it would be really hard to explain clearly.

    If she and Xu Jingtang fail to start this relationship in the future, it will be painful for relatives to ask.

    So Gu Pan laughed and said, “I’ll be out soon. Just take a rest in the hotel. I’ll go find you in the afternoon.”

    As if he knew what Gu Pan was worried about, Xu Jingtang did not continue to insist, but followed Gu Pan’s wishes, “Okay, then I’ll wait for you.”

    Gu Pan is unexpectedly timid, he should let the little girl see more sincerity from him.

    Then Gu Pan went to grandma’s house. The old man was still recovering, so his children took turns taking care of him, with a shift system every week.

    This week happens to be the time when the most terrifying second aunt and her family are on duty.

    It’s scary, but it’s not really scary. In fact, the second aunt still cares about Gu Pan, but the proportion of her concern seems to be wrong, and a lot of it is placed on the matter of marriage and love.

    Gu Pan once thought that Gu’s mother was taken away by her second aunt, and that’s why she became a marriage seeker.

    As soon as she entered the door, the second aunt was picking the vegetables she bought today in the living room. When she saw Gu Pan walking in, she immediately came over with a smile and took the bag from her hand. “I must have suffered a lot when I went abroad this time. Really, it will be nice to come back. What else should I bring with me.”

    Gu Pan also quickly took out the portion prepared for the second aunt from the bag: “This is for you, this is for my uncle, because I came back in a hurry and didn’t pick it carefully…”

    “It’s okay, it’s okay!” The second aunt immediately took the gift and started opening it, “Grandma is waiting for you in the room, go quickly!”

    Gu Pan quickly slipped into the room to avoid being alone with his second aunt.

    The old man’s condition seemed to be recovering well. His face was rosy and his eyes were bright. When he saw Gu Pan coming, he was so happy that his face was full of smiles: “Panpan, you are here, come and sit down!”

    This time, Gu Pan did not tell the elderly about the terrorist attack when he went abroad. The only relief in Gu Pan’s heart was that he did not worry his grandma.

    The two of them had a good relationship, and Gu Pan sat there until noon. It wasn’t until the second aunt asked Gu Pan to go out for dinner that she realized the time.

    Grandma ate directly on the bed. My uncle had to go to work today so he was not here. The children also went to school. Gu Pan and the second aunt were the only two people at the dinner table.

    “Has Panpan got a boyfriend recently?”

    Coming, coming, coming!

    Gu Pan’s heart was ringing with alarm bells, but he calmly swallowed his meal and said, “No…”

    “Speaking of which, I saw Zhang Zhe two days ago.”

    Gu Pan, who thought the second aunt was going to start her own argument about urging marriage, was stunned when she heard the unexpected words.

    The second aunt paused when she saw the movement of Gu Pan’s hand, and sighed: “He seems to be doing well now. I saw him and his girlfriend shopping the other day, and they were inseparable…”

    Gu Pan nodded and continued to eat in silence.

    Such behavior seemed to be a kind of sadness in the eyes of the second aunt. She realized her gaffe and gave Gu Pan a piece of meat to apologize.

    But I’m sorry, but the second aunt still can’t stop her gossiping heart.

    “Um… do you still like him?” After saying that, the second aunt added, as if she wanted to make her speculation more credible: “Otherwise, why haven’t you found a boyfriend?”

    In addition to urging the marriage, the second aunt also had a tendency to overthink things, which Gu Pan really didn’t like.

    Therefore, she has never been very close to her second aunt. She usually withdraws from any matter as politely as possible and never talks much.

    Zhang Zhe is the boyfriend Gu Pan met in college, and he can also be said to be her first boyfriend in the true sense. When Gu Pan first entered college and was still in the confused stage, Zhang Zhe from the student union did a lot of things for her.

    During the process of getting along, Gu Pan realized that Zhang Zhe was from the same hometown as him, and the two of them got together naturally as time went by.

    However, because Gu Pan himself did not like to talk too much about his love life with his family, the relationship was not known to Gu Pan’s family until it ended, and they found out through Zhang Zhe’s relatives…

    Therefore, the disadvantage of small cities is that the social circle is too narrow. Basically, if you see a stranger on the street, you can know who the stranger is by just asking around when you go home.

    After eating at grandma’s house and watching the old man take a nap, Gu Pan came out of grandma’s house and called Xu Jingtang.

    Then Gu Pan took Xu Jingtang to one of the busiest streets in the city, where many new shops had opened in recent years. Gu Pan had long wanted to go shopping.

    As soon as they met Xu Jingtang, he naturally held Gu Pan’s hand and started shopping. Gu Pan was a little uncomfortable at first, a little afraid of being bumped into by an acquaintance, but he let go after being pulled for a while.

    But it is true that there is a narrow road between enemies. As soon as Gu Pan and Xu Jingtang walked into a newly opened Japanese dessert shop and sat down, they heard the sound of wind chimes coming from the door.

    When he turned around, he saw Zhang Zhe walking in with a girl.

    Gu Pan now feels that the second aunt inserted a flag into him just now at grandma’s house, and now he has finally taken it back all at once.
