Huo Jinnan picked up the remaining three, put them away, and set them aside.
Jin Bo entered the door and saw everyone had gifts, "Second brother, where’s mine?"
Huo Jinnan looked up, glanced at Jin Bo, and casually grabbed a small box nearby, handing it to Jin Bo.
Jin Bo accepted it, opened it, and saw a pen without any logo, "Thanks."
He sat to one side, noticing Gu Jizhou staring at him, letting out a stiff laugh.
Gu Jizhou sat there, staring at Jin Bo, recalling the last ti’s scene and the conversation between his two uncles, his face flushed.
After a long ti, he finally managed to speak with difficulty, "Uncle..."
Jin Bo looked at Gu Jizhou, "It’s been many years since we last t."
Gu Jizhou was sowhat flustered, looking at Jin Bo, unsure of how he survived.
Jin Bo looked at Gu Jizhou, "I wasn’t on the fighter jet at the ti."
Gu Jizhou looked at Jin Bo, surprised he wasn’t on the jet, "..."
Jin Bo said, "There was no one on the fighter jet."
As soon as he spoke, not only did Gu Jizhou, but the old man and Huo Jinnan also looked at Jin Bo.
Jin Bo sat there, "That Zhang Er followed with another mission. The fighter jet was set to an automatic flight mode. Actually, I knew about it long ago, so I made that accident happen. If I couldn’t even detect such a minor issue, what kind of special forces soldier would I be, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Jizhou looked at Jin Bo, a trace of anger igniting in his eyes.
For all these years, he had been tornted by that nightmare, nearly unable to find peace!
Who would have thought... who would have thought he was used in the end!
Soon, he cald down again, realizing he had no right to be angry. If he hadn’t acted on his mother’s instigation, his uncle wouldn’t have had the chance to use him.
Jin Bo sensed both the second brother and grandfather looking at him unfavorably, "Well, it’s New Year’s Eve today."
Huo Jinnan, "..."
The old man, "..."
The two looked at Jin Bo as if they were about to skin him alive.
Especially the old man, who, because of this incident, had been vilified as a villain in a movie, only to be told in the end that what he tried so hard to conceal was a setup!
And because of this event, he had been troubled, unable to let go for a full seven years!
"You... you this—"
Seeing the old man about to throw his cane at Jin Bo, Ye Bai glanced at Jin Bo with sympathy and tily reminded, "He’s not fully recovered yet."
The old man held back his cane, ignoring Jin Bo afterwards.
He thought, starting today, for several consecutive months, he wouldn’t want to bother with Huo Boss!
Huo Jinnan looked at Jin Bo, took the pen from his hand, and set it aside.
Jin Bo, "..."
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have said anything; for all these years, he didn’t dare return!
Apologies to each and every one of them!
However, military orders were absolute; at that ti, there was no other way.
If not for protecting the Huo Family, he wouldn’t have returned to Hong Kong; he would have remained a hidden, invisible man, occasionally returning to secretly sneak a glance at them.
Fortunately, it was Gu Jizhou who relievedly spoke, "The past is the past; today’s New Year’s Eve, tomorrow marks a new year."
Jin Bo looked at Gu Jizhou. Initially, he felt a bit guilty towards Jizhou. Upon returning to Hong Kong, noticing what he had done over the years, combined with what Huo Jinyun did to his mother, that bit of guilt turned into anger.
Now seeing Gu Jizhou’s genuine remorse, that sense of guilt returned.
He patted Gu Jizhou on the shoulder, "Do well inside, and it’ll soon be over."
Gu Jizhou smiled and nodded, "Yes, that’s what I think too."
