Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Old Mr. Zhou returned to the Capital City two days before Gu Lingling’s wedding.

Knowing that Zhou Mei might be staying at home, he went straight to the Su Family’s place instead of returning home.

He was a solitary old man, but had it not been for Yao Ruanqian and Gu Lingling in the past, he might have already turned to dust.

Being alive till now and still able to contribute to the country is a bonus.

Therefore, he cherishes Gu Lingling like his own granddaughter.

Knowing all the things Zhou Mei had always given him, Old Mr. Zhou had already transferred those treasures to Gu Lingling early on, ”Keep this contract, the password is your birthday. The things inside are yours. When you have time, sort them out.”

In the Capital City, there is a bank specifically for these people to store valuables, and it can only be accessed with a key, a password, a contract, and the individual’s ID card.

Old Mr. Zhou doesn’t have much, as many treasures were destroyed in that era.

Some were returned to him after things calmed down, while others were secretly collected by him back then.

The items are few, but each one is exquisite.

”Don’t tell Grandpa you don’t want them,” said Old Mr. Zhou, ”Some with significance, I have donated, and the remaining ones are for your protection and as a memento.”

Indeed, most of them have already been donated to the country.

For this, Zhou Mei was terribly upset, scolding Old Mr. Zhou at home for several days, unable to get over it.

If those donated items were given to her, what would she worry about?

Just selling any one piece could make their family live in luxury for a lifetime.

”You foolish old man, donating just like that.”

But since they were donated to the country, even though Zhou Mei was extremely unwilling, she dared not show it outwardly.

Yao Jingsong’s freight company has now grown significantly, focusing on Qin City and expanding to major cities nationwide; they earn more money each day but are also getting busier.

Gu Lingling rarely sees him even once a month.

Whereas Gu Chunhai no longer goes for long hauls, staying in the Capital City’s company for some easy work, while also taking care of Old Sir Gu.

There is an accountant at the Capital City company around his age, whose husband passed away early, leaving her to raise her daughter alone. She shows some interest in Gu Chunhai.

However, Gu Chunhai rejected her.

He feels quite content being alone.

Moreover, getting married means another family, and he fears being distracted from his two children.

Even though one of his children is getting married, and the other is already the boss of a large company.

Gu Lingling had met that accountant and thought she was nice enough, but since Gu Chunhai had no such thoughts, she simply let it be.

Gu Chunhai discussed with Yao Jingsong. Over the years, he had saved quite a bit of money and wanted to split it in half, giving each child a share. Yao Jingsong refused, saying, ”Keep some money for yourself. My share goes to my sister.”

As for him, he has met many people through his freight work over the years and plans to get a new imported car for Gu Lingling.

That way, she won’t have to ride a bike or take the bus to work anymore.

Originally, they wanted to buy a red one, as Yao Jingsong thought it cheerful.

However, considering his sister’s temperament, she might find the red too flashy, so he bought a white one instead.

The exterior of the car doesn’t look particularly lavish, but the internal parts are all high-quality.

Low-key luxury.

Any expert could recognize its value.

Fearing Gu Lingling might refuse to accept it, Yao Jingsong didn’t mention it and only brought it back the day before the wedding.
