Chapter 529: Chapter 529

Gu Zishan himself thought about it, might as well just carry on, after all these years have passed , but now Gu Zishan already has the intention of wanting a divorce from her.

Before, military marriages were not easy; once the topic of divorce came up, it was all about mediation, then more mediation. Especially at such an old age, the higher-ups wouldn’t agree to a divorce.

But things are different now. If he retires, getting a divorce becomes very easy. He’s decided to divorce right after his retirement procedures are completed. If she doesn’t agree, he’ll file a lawsuit, even if the higher-ups don’t rule in his favor. He doesn’t want to keep living with Wang Guihua. It’s really too exhausting. He’s also getting old and just wants to live peacefully for a few days. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net

He knows she’s waiting for him to go to the hospital, admit his mistakes, and then she’ll come home, but he doesn’t care.

Both of the children came over to help pack belongings. Once everything was sorted, Gu Zishan left the compound, and the keys were swiftly handed over. As he left, he felt a bit reluctant, standing at the entrance, looking at the home he had lived in for so many years, he sighed.

The house he lives in now is quite close to Yang Dongfeng’s, but his house is bigger than Yang Dongfeng’s, and the condition and environment are nice. Living alone is quite comfortable. This house has never been lived in by Wang Guihua, so naturally, she won’t help clean up. After a simple tidy-up, on moving day, Sun Chan and Yang Hongying came over.

They hadn’t seen each other for several days, and both looked very haggard. One was busy, the other was ill.

Their husbands were too busy to come and help, so they had to do it themselves.

Yang Dongfeng didn’t want his daughter amidst all her busyness to help with moving and tire out his grandson.

He and his wife came over to help, while Sun Chan and the others dealt with some bowls, chopsticks, a few umbrellas, and clothing and bedding, leaving the rest for Yang Dongfeng and the others to help with.

After moving, they went to a nearby restaurant for a meal to celebrate the new home.

They didn’t cook at home to avoid further exhaustion.

Yang Dongfeng drank quite a bit, feeling many emotions. His father had passed away, and these old matters resurfaced, stirring his remorse for Liu Weihong. His wife continuously stirred up the past, exposing his old wounds.

Now he’s moved out and retired, reached the twilight of his life, his previous job gone, he’s just become a useless person waiting for death, full of regrets in his heart.

But he didn’t want to show it, and laughed as he raised his glass.

"Come, let’s have a drink. Starting today, I’m free, we can stroll together. Old Yang, you know a lot about the people and things around here, you must help me."

Yang Dongfeng agreed: "No problem! Just follow me! I’ll take you everywhere. I know you’re not feeling great now, but you’ll get used to it." When he first retired, he was in a bad mood too, only after Yang Yun passed away did he retire early, but over time, he became calm.

The two happily planned where to go fishing and hiking.

Zhao Jieyun instructed her daughter to take good care of the child; "Nothing is more important than the child. Don’t just focus on making money, take care of your body. Gu Junming is getting older, eager to have a child!"

Sun Chan laughed: "Understood Mom, you’ve been saying it countless times. I’ve remembered. My drafts have been submitted before, and in the shop, it’s just a check-in, nothing much."

Recently, the biggest thing in the shop is that Wu Dafu is considering cooperating with Han Dong; they need to establish a fashion trade market, requiring a lot of energy and money, involving bank loans. Sun Chan couldn’t help, instead, she’s been quite leisurely. The biggest thing is that Gu Junming is about to depart.

Yang Hongying said: "Although I’m weak, during my pregnancy, Gu Juntao has always been with me, taking care of me, so I’m at ease. You’re strong to deal with Gu Junming’s departure."

Sun Chan replied: "No choice, he’s a soldier, has to obey orders, and I have to support his work."

"You’re right," said Gu Zishan; "Thank you for understanding Gu Junming."

Sun Chan smiled, her husband’s absence made her feel uneasy, but it couldn’t be helped, because this is what a military spouse has to endure.

After Yang Hongying spoke, she regretted it, wondering why she brought up things that could upset Sun Chan on such a good day. Quickly fixing it, she raised her glass and smiled; "I think Gu Junming will surely earn merits and awards, let’s congratulate him in advance!"

Sun Chan drank orange juice, while others drank beer and finished it in one go.

The family had a lively meal before dispersing, and Sun Chan went to stay with her parents that day, instead of going back to the compound.

Gu Junming came to pick her up in the morning, even buying breakfast specially.

Yang Dongfeng laughed; "How many servings did you buy? Your father is just in the front unit! Very close. Send one over."

"I got that already. My dad got buns and soy milk, this one’s for you."

"Good kid, come in and eat with us."

Sun Chan and her husband had a simple meal at her parents’ home, and when the topic of going to conduct exercises came up, Yang Dongfeng shared some of his experiences, and Gu Junming listened attentively. Yang Dongfeng didn’t have high enough rank, Zhao Jieyun had internal connections, neither had experienced a large exercise.

The one with real experience was the old man, but now the old man was too sick to be disturbed.

Yang Dongfeng felt quite sorry for Gu Junming; "Had I worked harder back then, maybe I could have helped you more."

"It’s okay, I’ve already benefited a lot. When I return, I’ll talk to you about the current development of weapons." Gu Junming laughed.

Yang Dongfeng then offered words of comfort concerning the passing of Gu Junming’s grandfather.

The memorial service was large, families familiar with the Tang Family attended, and on that day, seeing Gu Junming act strong, his eyes were red.

Gu Junming said: "My grandfather passed peacefully, it’s a joyful memorial. I’ll work diligently to reassure him."

"That’s good, we soldiers must be strong," laughed Yang Dongfeng.

Sun Chan listened quietly, occasionally glancing at Gu Junming.

Having finished breakfast, she left with Gu Junming. She still had to go to school.

In the car, Sun Chan finally said: "What’s up with your neck again?"

Even with the turtleneck clothes on, it was still noticeable, the scratch marks on his neck. Earlier, she didn’t dare mention it in front of her parents, but now she reached out to touch it. A red patch, very noticeable scratches.

Gu Junming frowned; "Last night it was Ai Mei who scratched me."

"Got tangled up with the upstairs again?" Sun Chan said helplessly: "Why bother? Let her say whatever she wants, just listen for a few curses, don’t provoke her anymore! Otherwise, you’ll get beaten again, and you’ll only suffer."
