Chapter 707: Sheng Yi Knows, He’s Here (3)
Gu Yuan retracted her hand.
So Sheng Yi was feeling guilty about this matter.
If Dao An really loved another woman, Sheng Yi’s behavior might be morally questionable. Of course, setting aside morality, do whatever you want, as long as you’re happy, without caring about others’ opinions.
However, Dao An never loved any woman other than Sheng Yi.
"I’m not angry," Gu Yuan said helplessly.
Sheng Yi confidently replied, "You are angry!"
Gu Yuan found it amusing, mostly because Sheng Yi’s reaction was adorable, "How do you know I’m angry?"
Sheng Yi analyzed and said, "I talked for so long just now, and you ignored me, so surely you’re still angry."
This was really a misunderstanding; her mind was entirely on meeting Dao An at the Empire State Building.
This topic wasn’t important, so Gu Yuan steered the conversation elsewhere, "Yiyi, here’s my plan now: my return to the country is unchanged, but I need to change my flight to a different city. I need to make a stop in Yanjing. I’ll discuss the details with you later, so my current arrangement is for Chi Yu and me to leave first, and then Dao An will send you back to the country."
A second ago, Sheng Yi thought she was abandoned, and the next: (ΩДΩ)!!!!
She couldn’t believe it, even thinking she misheard!
"Yuanyuan, are you saying... saying, saying, letting..."
"Yes, I’m asking Dao An to take you back to the country."
Sheng Yi’s stammering, shocked expression made Gu Yuan truly want to laugh because Sheng Yi’s expression was just too adorable at this moment.
The answer was very definite, ensuring Sheng Yi hadn’t misheard, but she caught onto a key word: "Trouble?"
Gu Yuan pursed her lips, faulting herself for liking to use formal language.
She calmly explained, "Dao An’s upcoming itinerary already includes a return trip to Peng City. You know, Peng City is close to Sui City, so it’s not really trouble, just a convenient detour."
Sheng Yi: "..."
The surprise came too fast, leaving her feeling a bit overwhelmed.
But every word Gu Yuan said, Sheng Yi was sure she hadn’t misheard. Yes, she clearly heard Yuanyuan say to return to the country with Dao An, not as trouble but as a convenient detour.
This made Sheng Yi incredibly happy, trying hard to hide it, but it was fully evident on her face.
Just then, Chi Yu, who was driving in front, brought up the unmentionable: "Not that I’m saying anything, but even if it’s a rare detour, you should keep yourself in check. If someone takes you along, don’t scare them off."
Sheng Yi turned away, "I didn’t hear a word you said!"
Although she acted nonchalant, Chi Yu’s reminder cooled the exuberant feelings she had just moments before.
A detour means nothing, just extra glances; she needs to be reserved and absolutely not repeat raising unreasonable demands like she did that night.
...
Gu Yuan didn’t say much more to Sheng Yi.
Both knew the truth. Just a simple meeting and embrace felt too bland; some things always need a bit of process before naturally falling into place, right? She merely felt it should be Dao An who personally tells Sheng Yi about his feelings.
That’s the process.
Words that move people sound completely different coming from her.
So, Gu Yuan chose to temporarily not tell Sheng Yi.
Until Dao An tells Sheng Yi himself.
At least now, knowing Dao An’s feelings for Sheng Yi, Gu Yuan can feel assured.
They say persistent thoughts will always have a response.
Whether it’s Dao An’s persistence or Sheng Yi’s, it will eventually lead to results.
...
Everything is heading in a positive direction, including this meeting with Dao An.
Qin Bing knew Gu Yuan and Chi Yu had come to M Country; it was inconvenient to make appearances, plus there were matters in Shanghai exceeding his time budget for returning to the country, so he had to head back first. He knew Sheng Yi would return eventually because within his territory, things are easier, and it wouldn’t lead to unexpected situations like in M Country.
But for now, no one knows if Qin Bing has left.
When Gu Yuan and Chi Yu rushed to M Country, they didn’t bring anything, so when they left the next day, they had nothing in hand.
The skies were clear, the weather exceptionally fine, a rare beautiful day.
Watching Gu Yuan and Chi Yu get into the car to the airport while she had to stay, Sheng Yi felt bittersweet, finding joy amidst the bittersweet feelings.
