"Ali, book me a flight home tomorrow."

"Yes."

Gu Zhao didn't immediately open the text message that Jiang Yao had sent him. Instead, he passed by her and directly opened the phone. He called his secretary and asked her to arrange a flight home tomorrow.

He had never told Jiang Yao, or rather, hadn't told anyone, that he was going to return home. He had come back quietly.

It was because there were some things that were inconvenient for him to come back in such a hurry. After all, there was someone watching him at Jiang Guangzheng's place, so he couldn't let him know what he was going to do.

However, looking at the current situation, even if he were to return, he would not have much of an interest in himself. After all, his company was busy right now.

"Jiang Yao, I want to show you how I trampled your exalted father beneath my feet."

….

The next morning, after Gu Zhao dealt with the matters of the branch office, he got on the flight back home. Instead of going home, he first went to his company, discussed some matters with a few friends, and then began to deal with the matters at hand.

On the other side, the first thing Jiang Yao did after waking up was to check if Gu Zhao called her or texted her.

However, to her disappointment, other than a message from her friend asking her to go play with him, there was no other news.

The person she longed for did not return her call, nor did she send a text message.

For some reason, Jiang Yao felt upset. She began to take care of herself, then went downstairs fully dressed. When he walked into the restaurant, he saw that Aunt Sunn had already prepared breakfast. Facing such a sumptuous breakfast, Jiang Yao had no appetite. She ate only a few bites before leaving.

Due to the fact that Gu Zhao didn't come back, Jiang Yao took advantage of the lack of work in the next two days to go home. Thinking about it now, in order to not worry his parents, he hadn't come home to visit for a few days.

As soon as Jiang Yao got home, she received a text from Aunt Sunn saying that Gu Zhao would be back tomorrow. Hearing the news, a smile broke out on Jiang Yao's face. Aunt Jiang was very curious, so she asked.

"What's the matter? Yao is so happy."

Aunt Jiang asked when she saw Jiang Yao so happy.

"No, nothing."

Jiang Yao did not dare to say that she was so happy because Gu Zhao was coming back. Because if my mother knew, she would definitely say that she had no future.

Although this was a very pampered sentence, she didn't want her mother to worry about her.

"Oh yeah, it's already so late, why isn't dad back yet? I'm so hungry."

In order to prevent Aunt Jiang from pursuing the matter any further, Jiang Yao chose to change the topic and focus Aunt Jiang's attention on other matters.

"Yao, if you're hungry, just eat first. Your father might be a bit late. There were too many things happening in the company recently. Your father had to attend every night, and opportunities always came back very late. So we won't wait for him, we'll eat first. "

Aunt Jiang's heart ached for her daughter. She feared that it would be difficult for her to come back, and she even made her starve. This was really not good. Thus, he decided to eat first since he didn't know when her father would be back.

"Aunt Qin, prepare the dishes. Yao and I will eat first."

When Jiang Yao heard this, she immediately tried to stop him, "No need, no need, we should just wait for daddy to come back and eat together. Didn't you just call your dad earlier? That's not good. "

She just wanted to change the topic and wasn't really hungry.

Just as Jiang Yao finished her sentence, she heard the door open. Speaking of Cao Cao Cao, the one who came in was the Uncle Jiang that they just mentioned. He was holding his suit in his hand.

"Yao."

Uncle Jiang called out to Jiang Yao, and then he handed the clothes to Aunt Qin. After that, she walked in front of the mother and daughter with a smile. She first looked at her emaciated daughter and said, "Let's wait for a long time. Let's eat first. I believe Yao is already hungry."

"Yeah, your precious daughter is already hungry, and she still has to wait for you to come back before she's willing to eat."

Aunt Jiang chuckled as she held Jiang Yao's hand. Then, she turned her head to Jiang Yao and said, "It's time for dinner, little girl."

She scratched the tip of Jiang Yao's nose affectionately and said lovingly to her.

"Everyone says that your daughter is your father, but my darling daughter is here, so she just loves your father."

Uncle Jiang was very proud of himself when he said those words to Aunt Jiang.

"Fine, fine, fine. Your darling, you daughter should be fine, but right now, your darling daughter is hungry."

Only then did Uncle Jiang realize that they had been chatting ever since he came back. He even forgot that Yao was still hungry. So he quickly said, "Yes yes yes, I forgot. "Come, come, let's go. Our family of three will go eat."

At the dinner table, Uncle Jiang was continuously serving food to Jiang Yao. Even Aunt Jiang couldn't get her hands on him, and could only watch from the side. He also said that he had lost weight after not seeing her for two days. Jiang Yao couldn't answer, so she could only lower her head and eat in silence.

"Old Jiang, what's wrong with you? Is your stomach hurting again?"

Jiang Yao, who was eating with her head lowered, couldn't help but raise her head when she heard Aunt Jiang's words. Ye Zichen saw Uncle Jiang's pained expression, while Aunt Jiang was shouting at Aunt Qin.

"Aunt Qin, bring me Old Jiang's medicine and a cup of warm water."

Judging from Aunt Jiang's tone, this was not the first time something like this had happened. At this moment, Jiang Yao noticed that her father seemed to have aged after not seeing her for a few days.

The white hair on her temples seemed to have grown a lot more, something she hadn't noticed before. Jiang Yao felt like she had just been punched hard by someone. Her nose suddenly felt sore, and her eyes also started to heat up.

Thinking about it, he had basically put all his energy into Gu Zhao. She didn't even have time to pay attention to her elderly parents, how they had been and how their health had been.

Uncle Jiang felt much better after taking the medicine given by Aunt Qin. He heaved a sigh of relief.

"Yao, what are you crying for? Daddy is fine, really." This is an old problem. Once you take the medicine, you'll be fine. "

Jiang Yao sniffled as she wiped her tears away and said with a choked voice, "Dad, have you been staying up all night recently? I just realized that you're not in the right mental state."

"It's because my daughter is unfilial and can't come back often to accompany the two of you. and I haven't been able to call often to ask questions about myself, just this little bit of stuff. "

When Jiang Yao spoke, she couldn't stop her tears from streaming down her face.

Uncle Jiang let go of his wife's hand and hugged his daughter, who was in tears. He gently caressed her head and said, "It's good that Yao has this kind of heart. Mom and Dad don't need you to come back to visit us often. We hope that you can live a happy life, that's enough. "
