Free Web NovelChapter 700: Chapter 4: Chi Yu Shows Off Everywhere: I’m Married!
Most of it was filled with regret.
But Gu Yuan just listened without responding.
Sheng Yi thought Gu Yuan was too disappointed in her and spoke sulkily, "Yuanyuan, please don’t be mad. I really know I was wrong. I will never do such a stupid thing again."
"Dao An was very courteous and didn’t take advantage of the situation last night. Although at that moment, things seemed to be stirring up, wanting to happen, luckily Dao An is indifferent and has no interest in me at all. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to see each other again in this lifetime."
"Yuanyuan, please don’t ignore me, okay? I really know I was wrong."
Her voice started to choke, and if Gu Yuan didn’t speak soon, Sheng Yi might end up crying.
Gu Yuan looked at the pitiful and tearful Sheng Yi, who was on the verge of tears, and finally smiled. The smile was faint, leaving Sheng Yi unable to tell whether it was good or bad.
"Yuanyuan?"
At this point, Gu Yuan reached out to cup Sheng Yi’s face, "Do you know why I’m not speaking?"
Sheng Yi shook her head, feeling wronged, "I don’t know."
This tone and expression were exactly like the adult version of Suisui.
Gu Yuan’s lips curled up into a smile, and she laughed aloud, then said to Sheng Yi, "I’m silent because I’m contemplating something, and it has to do with you."
Sheng Yi, with tears in her eyes, asked, "Is it good or bad?"
After asking, she muttered to herself, "If it’s bad, I won’t listen."
"What if it’s good?" The gentle voice carried a hint of certainty, effectively calming Sheng Yi down.
Sheng Yi said softly, "Then tell me."
She wasn’t really interested because she thought it probably wasn’t something good, but then she thought, Yuanyuan never lies to her, so maybe there is something to look forward to; still, she couldn’t quite muster the emotion to actually feel hopeful.
While Sheng Yi was distracted, she heard Gu Yuan say—
"Yiyi, maybe this is what it means for an bystander to see things clearly. I think Dao An still cares about you. It’s not just having you on his mind, it’s that he... really cares."
Yes, really cares.
Gu Yuan might not always judge people accurately, but every woman’s sixth sense is particularly sharp.
Women should trust their sixth sense.
At first, Sheng Yi didn’t react, then she was stunned, and soon she was relieved, "If Dao An really still had feelings for me, he wouldn’t date a girlfriend abroad; if he truly had me in his heart, he would’ve come back after studying abroad. Even though I’m not that outstanding, I’ve managed to gain some fame and fortune in my own field, so I feel Dao An’s feelings towards me are more of appreciation."
Gu Yuan: "Not necessarily."
Sheng Yi looked up at Gu Yuan: "?"
Before this matter was confirmed, Gu Yuan thought it was best not to say too much in front of Sheng Yi, to avoid putting her hopes up for something that might not happen, eventually leading to disappointment.
So, this idea was temporarily formed.
Gu Yuan decided to personally talk to Dao An, or perhaps meet his girlfriend in person, to see if their relationship was as described by Sheng Yi, sweet and deeply in love.
This time, Gu Yuan stayed in M Country for two days.
Two days later, she would return to her country, naturally meaning she would take Sheng Yi back with her.
Gu Yuan didn’t want to delay any longer; Sheng Yi’s final decision depended on whether Gu Yuan could get the answers she wanted from Dao An.
Just as Gu Yuan was about to call and schedule a time with Dao An, a call came from his side first.
Gu Yuan held her phone, glanced at Chi Yu beside her, and asked, "Do you think this call is about Sheng Yi, or about work?"
Chi Yu smiled playfully, "Yuanyuan, want to bet on it?"
Gu Yuan: "How do we bet if we’re both betting on the same thing?"
Chi Yu: "It still counts as your win."
Gu Yuan half-closed her eyes, "I guess this call from Dao An is for Yiyi."
Chi Yu, with a certain tone: "The same."
Truly, a couple in harmony.
Gu Yuan thought only she saw it clearly, but obviously, Chi Yu saw it too. And looking at Chi Yu’s confident expression, perhaps this time... they were spot on.
She picked up Dao An’s call.
The man’s deep and steady voice came through the earpiece, "President Gu, is your flight tonight?"
Gu Yuan looked at Chi Yu, who had a faint smile on his lips, and replied to the person on the other end, "Yes, tonight. Why?"
Then, as Gu Yuan had hoped, the man on the other end said—
"President Gu, let’s meet and talk, without Sheng Yi."
Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow, and the weight in her heart eased because of this call, and she immediately agreed, "Alright, set a location and send it to me, I’ll be there right away."
