Chapter 694: The Gu Manor 2

The Gu Manor.
Second Old Master Gu was already awake at 5 am.
He was used to cleaning his wife and carrying her up to sit on the wheelchair. Then, he would push her out for a walk. Madam Gu had been in a vegetative state for years, and she could not sense anything. Yet, Second Old Master Gu took good care of her every single day.
He helped with her drip and helped to wash her up. Then, he would bring her out for a walk. He did everything meticulously, and he would never let anyone else do it for her.
Every morning, they began their walk, and they would walk until the sun rose. The two of them would watch the sunrise before returning home. Nearby, there was a small but tall mountain. Initially, there were stairs, but since Madam Gu was wheelchair-bound, Second Old Master Gu got rid of all the stairs and paved a mud path.
Ah Xi carried a jacket and a bottle of water as he followed them. Several silent guardians were following them along in hidden places.
As usual, Second Old Master Gu told Madam Gu about the surrounding scenery as they walked.
Although she had been in such a state for years, it was as if Madam Gu’s body was paused. She did not seem like someone who was paralyzed. Her limbs were perfectly fine and not rotten. This had something to do with the care Second Old Master Gu gave to her. She was like a youthful twenty-year-old lady. From the day she went into a coma, she had never changed.
Ah Xi was the servant of the Gu Family, and so were his parents. Since he could remember, he was already serving the Second Old Master Gu. Now, he felt a heartache. It had been almost twenty-seven years. Other than his master, no one else would spend twenty years looking after a person in a vegetative state every single day.
Second Old Master Gu had just left the main villa when he saw Gu Yuanli approaching from his villa. He was discussing something with Li Zhiyuan, and the two of them were followed by three ladies who looked gentle and delicate. They were dressed in black dresses, and one of them who seemed to be in her thirties looked really classy.
The sun rose early in City A.
At around 5 am, the sky was already gray. The ladies all looked beautiful. One of the ladies took a hat from behind her back and passed it to the main lady. She put it on and revealed her sharp chin.
Second Old Master Gu frowned slightly. Upon seeing Second Old Master Gu, Gu Yuanli rushed forward. “Pa…”
Li Zhiyuan greeted him respectfully as well. “Mr. Gu…”
Second Old Master Gu nodded. He knew that Gu Yuanli was on good terms with Li Zhiyuan. The two of them had been great friends since they were studying in school.
There were many businesses that involved both Ghost City and Brilliant Entertainment.
“Did you guys discuss the matters until this late?” Second Old Master Gu asked.
“Pa, we had many things to discuss, and we did so until very late. Zhiyuan decided to stay and rest here.” Gu Yuanli responded.
Second Old Master Gu looked at the ladies behind them and did not speak much. Gu Yuanli did not explain either. It seemed like he found it hard to explain. His vision went to the lady on the wheelchair, and Gu Yuanli’s eyes turned soft.
“Good morning, Mom!” He smiled and hugged Madam Gu, who was in a state of deep sleep. He kissed her softly on the face, and he looked warm and gentle like a boy who missed his mother dearly.
“Alright, I shall not interfere with your matters. I’m bringing your mom out to see the sunrise.”
“Okay, Dad, Mom, have a safe trip!” Gu Yuanli was very respectful.
Second Old Master Gu pushed Madam Gu from the small path behind the manor all the way into the mountain. There was a path in the Gu Manor that brought them all the way down the mountain. There were fresh flowers on both sides of the mountain, and the three ladies turned around with a deep expression in their eyes. They looked at Second Old Master Gu and his wife.
Under the gray sky, the couple seemed so pitiful. Yet, everyone in the Gu Manor knew that Madam Gu had been in deep sleep for twenty-six years. She did not know anything, and if Second Old Master Gu were to give up on her, they would have euthanized her long ago.
Gu Yuanli said calmly, “I can bear with anything, but… if anyone touches my parents, I’ll make sure they have to step over my corpse first!”
