Five years later, Mrs. Gu returned home with her child and became a wealthy family

Chapter 222 Comforting Gu Jingheng

After they returned to the Gu family, Gu Jingheng saw that the servants and housekeepers were still busy at home. It was so late, but they still hadn't rested.

Gu Jingheng frowned and suddenly remembered something.

His hands hanging at his sides slowly tightened, the veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible, and a subtle hint of obscurity and loss of control flashed across his eyes.

Mu Zijin looked at the servants still busy in the kitchen and couldn't help but ask, "It's so late, what are you busy with?"

Gu Jingheng lowered his eyes, his voice lacking any emotion: "Tomorrow is the anniversary of my father's death."

And my brother's.

However, his brother’s death has always been a taboo in the family, and Gu Jingheng has never been willing to bring it up.

It was also because of the death of Gu's father and brother that his relationship with his mother had not been very good over the years.

The grudge between the two of them will probably be difficult to eliminate in this lifetime.

Seeing this, Mu Zijin noticed Gu Jingheng's mood change and did not speak again.

The death of a loved one is an indelible scar in the heart.

Just like Mu Zijin, on her mother's death anniversary five years ago, she accidentally had a one-night stand with a man and gave birth to three children, but her eldest son died young.

In the past five years, I haven’t celebrated my birthday every year.

Since they grew up to understand things, they have taken the initiative to not celebrate their birthdays.

Just because this day is not only their birthday, but also the day their brother left.

They shouldn't celebrate his birthday, but rather remember his brother.

Mu Zijin also wanted to convince himself, but he still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

She knew she shouldn't deprive Sui Sui of his birthday, but when she thought about the day she failed to protect her eldest son, the wound in her heart burst open and blood spilt.

So when Mu Zijin saw Gu Jingheng's face suddenly darken, she could also feel the same way.

She took the initiative to take the children upstairs and help them wash up.

Gu Qingtian looked at Mu Zijin and took the initiative to explain, "Aunt Zijin, my father is never very happy on this day every year because it is said that the deaths of my grandfather and uncle were caused by him, so he can't get over it."

Hearing this, Mu Zijin was slightly stunned.

At that time, she had been married to the Gu family for a year and had never participated in the Gu family's sacrifices.

Mrs. Gu never told her these things, so Mu Zijin didn't know as much as Gu Qingtian.

Mu Zijin's eyes darkened: "Then you know why..."

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but were taken back by Mu Zijin.

After all, this is Gu Jingheng's privacy. If she asked directly, it would be inappropriate as it would violate other people's privacy.

Mu Zijin immediately shook her head: "It's okay, it's normal to feel sad when relatives are offering sacrifices. Sunny, you should rest early and follow dad to offer sacrifices tomorrow."

Gu Qingtian also nodded obediently.

After coming out of the children's room, Mu Zijin walked towards the room.

Just when I was about to return to the master bedroom, I found that the door of the study was not closed tightly, and the light coming from inside proved that there was someone inside.

Mu Zijin paused and subconsciously looked through the gap.

I saw Gu Jingheng sitting in front of the desk, but there were already several wine bottles on the table.

Seeing this, Mu Zijin subconsciously pushed the door open and walked in: "Gu Jingheng, this is not the way you drink!"

Mu Zijin's voice suddenly rang out. Gu Jingheng paused holding the wine glass, then raised his deep eyes, which gradually fell on Mu Zijin.

Their eyes met, and Gu Jingheng pursed his lips slightly: "I'm fine."

Mu Zijin looked at Gu Jingheng. Although she wanted to keep a distance from him, she couldn't just sit back and watch as Gu Jingheng was in sadness and self-blame.

She walked over and tried to snatch the wine glass from Gu Jingheng's hand.

"It's certainly sad when a loved one passes away, but you can't use it to harm your own body. Otherwise, how can they rest in peace in the afterlife?"

Mu Zijin had just snatched the wine glass away, and the next second, Gu Jingheng's big hand grabbed Mu Zijin's waist.

Mu Zijin was caught off guard and was suddenly pulled by Gu Jingheng to sit on his lap.

She was still a little frightened and looked at Gu Jingheng in shock.

The next second, Gu Jingheng's lips fell down and kissed her directly!

Mu Zijin whimpered immediately, but was forced into Gu Jingheng's breath. Gu Jingheng rubbed her lips heavily, conquering her.
