She couldn’t help but slightly open her mouth, with a bit of surprise in her heart.
She had never experienced matters of emotion.
At this moment, however, she was slightly shocked by the emotions of the previous head of the Darwin Family and An Feng.
After the shock, Gu Jin gently pursed her lips.
She suggested, "Since Grandma An won’t move over, why don’t we move there to live with her?"
Gu Jin could clearly sense that An Feng’s time was nearing its end during this period.
She thought it would be better to be with her as much as possible.
An Mingji shook his head: "I suggested it, but she disagreed."
An Feng disagreed, so there was nothing they could do.
Both of their faces didn’t look too good. After being together for so long, they had developed a certain closeness with An Feng.
The thought of her nearing the end made them feel uncomfortable.
Gu Jin raised her eyes, capturing the pain in the eyes of the young boy standing in front of her.
She stepped forward, wrapping her arms around his waist in silent comfort.
This time, An Mingji had no other rippling thoughts.
He hugged Gu Jin back, his voice hoarse: "Let nature take its course. I think Auntie’s mindset is quite alright."
"Mm—"

Gu Dehao led his subordinates to the Western Region on a mission.
He left his wife Ye Mei and son Gu Jiayu in Beijing.
After the family settled down in Beijing, Gu Dehao had his career, and Ye Mei no longer needed to worry all day, afraid her husband might die on the battlefield.
Their son even stayed in Beijing to study, attending Beijing No. 4 High School.
Gu Jiayu was already fifteen, six years younger than Gu Jin, and Gu Jin had met him a few times.
When Gu Dehao brought Ye Mei and Gu Jiayu home, the family of three returned with weathered faces due to the perennial dry climate in the Northwest Region, which left heavy marks on them.
The last time Gu Jin saw Gu Jiayu, his face was youthful, with obvious freckles.
Gu Jin hadn’t expected to meet him under such circumstances.
At this moment, she stood in the office of the director of Beijing No. 4 High School, with Allen and several guards from the Darwin Family standing behind her.
She glanced at Ye Mei, who was sitting on a bench nearby, looking calm but making every effort to suppress her anger, as well as the boy standing beside her, showing all his grievances and anger on his face. Gu Jin took a deep breath.
It all started an hour ago.
Today, Gu Jin was at home, contacting the person in charge of National Beauty in Wanhai City, intending to invite Lu Jinrong, a dedicated designer of National Beauty, to Beijing for the upcoming final image endorsement audition.
Just after hanging up the phone, she received a call from Ye Mei.
This woman, who came from a mountain village and has been married to Gu Dehao for over a decade, accompanying him in the Northwest Region for nearly ten years, didn’t cry like other village women when things went wrong.
She concisely and clearly informed her about what happened to Gu Jiayu at school.
Aware of Gu Jiayu’s plight at school, Gu Jin’s face filled with anger, and she left the house without even changing her clothes, ready to drive to the school.
She happened to run into Allen, who was returning from an errand.
Seeing her haste and obvious anger on her face, he brought people along with him.
The situation was simple: Gu Jiayu was wrongfully accused of stealing a classmate’s belongings at school.
Why was Gu Jin so sure that Gu Jiayu was wrongfully accused?
Because Gu Jiayu was brought up and taught by Gu Dehao himself, he was more understanding than other kids. His insight gained from years in the Northwest Courtyard, his vision, and scope, as well as his longtime playmates, destined that he wasn’t a sneaky child.
What kind of place was the Northwest Courtyard?
