Gu Xiyan never thought that the man Luo chose as his daughters fiancé would be... him!
Be careful!
Isnt life full of absurdities! Looking at the couple in the center of the venue, who were now saying something to each other, she suddenly found herself replaying that scene from seven years ago in her mind once again.
He and Ye Jiarong stood together, a perfect match made in heaven! But she fell to the ground, covering her sore face, tears streaming down uncontrollably, like an ugly little duckling that nobody loved.
A large hand suddenly grasped Gu Xiyans soft wrist, and after a moment of stunned silence, Gu Xiyan clasped the hand back.
Wei Zhe impatiently entertained Miss Luo for a while before finding an excuse to slip away. As for this drunken old mans intention is not in the wine play, a storm flashed across his eyes, and Wei Zhe pulled down a face.
Jian Wei Zhes face was unpleasant, and Luo Zong didnt dare to stop him. He just tried to please him by saying that his own daughter didnt understand things, and asked Jian not to mind.
Luo Zong originally wanted his daughter to take Wei Zhe on a trip, but would Wei Zhe give them this opportunity? He hadnt forgotten the purpose of his visit today.
Gu Xiyan was wearing a pure black evening dress tonight, the dress was very conservative and didnt reveal any skin. However, this simple dress perfectly outlined Gu Xiyans slender figure. When Wei Zhe found Gu Xiyan, she had already put on an overcoat. And she was being held in the arms of a handsome and elegant man with a cold expression.
The place where the three people were was not bright, and when they saw someone coming, Shang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and leaned down to kiss the child in his arms.
Because there were only two people here originally, Gu Xiyan could clearly hear the footsteps approaching. She didnt understand Shang Qis actions, but she didnt refuse either. As long as it didnt go against her principles, she wouldnt object to whatever he wanted her to cooperate with.
"Ah..." Wei Zhes heart clenched tightly, as if a knife was silently and mercilessly piercing his heart.
Feeling the person in her arms tremble, Shang Yi held her even tighter: "Focus."
Gu Xiyan could feel Wei Zhes gaze fixed tightly on her, and she let out a sigh in her heart. Without standing up, she hooked her hands around Shang Qis neck and pulled him down slightly, passionately responding to this man who was nominally her husband.
His eyes were clear and bright, her eyes were bewildered and at a loss, his eyes had secretly turned to sorrow.
Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!
Seeing the one he loved in front of him, lips locked with another man, in a posture that seemed all too familiar as if they had done it countless times before, Wei Zhe wanted to speak, his lips struggled to move for a few moments, but ultimately couldnt say a word.
Yan Yan, is this really your choice? Have you really... fallen in love with this man? What about me? What am I then?
"Mr. Wei, youre here? Hmm, who are these two?" Miss Luos sudden intrusion broke the strange atmosphere, and she seemed to be genuinely puzzled as she exclaimed in surprise.
Shang Yi slowly came back to his senses, holding Gu Xiyan as he stood up. He nodded at Wei Zhe and the others before walking towards the door with her in his arms.
At the entrance, Gu Xiyan looked back from Shang Yis arms and happened to see that lovely Miss Luo had taken Wei Zhes arm, with their hands intertwined.
In the car.
Shang Yi quietly helped Gu Xian tie her seatbelt, remaining silent. He knew she would speak up.
"Qi, you dont have to be like this." Gu Xiyan said in a low voice.
"What do you think is the fastest and most effective way?" He gazed forward, his eyes profound and distant.
"When did you know?" She lowered her head, somewhat embarrassed.
Shang Yi leaned sideways, his hand touching the cherry lips of Shang Gu Xiyan, gently stroking them one by one.
He stretched out his hand and started the car.
Gu Xiyan leaned her head against the back of the chair, and the car was silent for a long time, until she almost fell asleep. Then, a mans elegant and low voice came from the wind: "Xiyan, dont forget your identity. Besides, I dont like other men touching you."
Gu Xiyan heard this and felt a slight bitterness in her heart.
When I got home, Xiao Ya was already asleep on the sofa. The cartoon of Tom and Jerry was playing on TV in the living room.
Gu Xiyan turned off the TV, and Shang Yi took the little girl upstairs to her bedroom.
Returned to the room and took a bath, Gu Xiyan, as usual, habitually wanted to put on her own pajamas. She reached out to the side, but suddenly found that she was so absent-minded that she even forgot to bring clothes.
Getting out of the bathtub, Gu Xiyan casually grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her before opening the bathroom door. The towel was not big enough to cover up her charming figure.
Outside the bathroom door, Shang Yi was leaning against the wall and saw that Gu Xiyan had only wrapped herself in a small towel and came out. His eyes showed displeasure. He turned around and took out a long coat from the closet and draped it over Gu Xiyans body: "Dont come out like this next time."
Taking advantage of Shang Yis departure to take a bath, Gu Xiyan quickly changed into her pajamas in the room.
Sitting on the soft big bed with her hands around her knees, Gu Xiyans heart was filled with annoyance.
"Lets talk," said Qi as he walked out of the bathroom. Gu Xiyan seemed to have made some kind of decision.
He held Gu Xiyuan in his arms, and Shang Yis words were calm: "Have you thought it through?"
"Alright, lets just go with it then. Its fine like this." Gu Xis last bit of hesitation dissipated, a pair of extremely beautiful eyes sparkling as she looked at Shang Qi, waiting for his response.
"Good." He said. Kissing the womans cherry lips, he gently licked them, extremely tender and affectionate.
Thats it, one person fears loneliness, two people fear being let down. He doesnt love her, she doesnt love him, hugging each other for warmth, thats fine!
Under the same night sky, Wei Zhe stood in front of the window wearing only a silk pajama. The window was wide open, and the howling cold wind on this winters night made his whole body icy cool.
Eyes filled with sorrow as heavy as frost, heart is overwhelmed with tender emotions that are hard to bear.
Yan Yan, youre so heartless...
That early autumn, under the fiery red maple tree in the university campus, she was like a little elf who accidentally fell into his arms. A white flowing long dress, a head of smooth black hair, and those clear yet charming eyes...
In those days with her, he never doubted that they would grow old together. Once upon a time, their happiness was envied by heaven itself.
But why did that day have to happen?
Isnt he supposed to love her? Why didnt he believe her then?
"Im really blind in both eyes, how could I have fallen for a man like you?"
"Wei Zhe, the relationship between us is like this broken cup, once shattered, it can never be restored. From now on, Gu Xiyans life or death has nothing to do with you, goodbye. No, I will never appear in front of you, Wei Shao, again. Consider these past days as Gu Xiyan being foolish and not knowing her place by reaching for someone like you. You can rest assured, I understand the situation well, and I wont be a hindrance to your eyes anymore."
"Wei Zhe, I dont love you anymore, youre nothing to me now!"
"Wei Zhe, I hate you..."
When she shattered with her own hands the one and only cup in this world that he had especially designed for her, when that little mouth of hers which used to babble on and on about its love for him said it never wanted to see him again, when she ran away crying desperately with a hopeless face, she must not have known that his heart was also crushed into pieces, piece by piece, stained with blood!
At that time, he would not have known that she had truly disappeared overnight from this land with him, no matter how hard he dug the earth, he could not find any trace of her. Yan Yan, she was like that, as if she had never appeared in his life.
For seven years, he traveled through many cities, always holding onto that thought in his heart, telling himself that if he just ran to one more city, then another, he would be able to see her. If it werent for this thought supporting him, he feared he would have collapsed long ago.
He couldnt describe his feelings when he found out that her departure was actually orchestrated by his mother and Ye Jiarong. He had been plotted against by his own family, and abandoned by the one he loved... what else could be left for him?
Yan Yan, I really, deeply hate myself! Hate that when I was young and arrogant, I took pride too seriously. Hate that I could lose the one I loved most, the only one I deeply loved, you, on the way here... so hateful...
This time in Beijing, he still had that unrealistic fantasy. Unexpectedly, it turned out that the more you dream, the more it will come true in reality.
But there is already someone else by her side.
"Yan Yan, only I can kiss you, you are a philosophers person!" The first time he kissed her, she was blushing all over, and he deliberately teased her.
"Mm." Her response was soft and gentle.
But Yanyan, you kissed someone else right in front of me, so recklessly and freely.
Can you see how dead my heart was at that moment? No, you didnt want me from the very beginning, did you? How can you still care about what I think?
The wind pouring in from the window was even colder and more piercing, Wei Zhe gazed out at the endless dark night outside the window, just like gazing at his own uncertain path forward.
Yan Yan...
