Chapter 691 -692: Give Up
Xia Yangyang left Jingci Hospital without finding Wen Xiaochu.
After leaving, Xia Yangyang planned to return to the hotel.
However, while driving, she noticed what seemed like a black car following her.
Xia Yangyang became cautious.
After observing in the rearview mirror for a while, the car disappeared.
Xia Yangyang was puzzled.
Was she just overthinking?
Gu Zhaohan had been advising her to be careful these days, fearing movements from Xi Jiaxin.
At the moment, Xi Jiaxin and Liu Ruyan were convicted of murder and they are both waiting for the second trial.
Xia Yangyang had also been considering these past few days.
She wasn’t unconcerned. Although she knew some basic skills, she was, after all, a woman alone outdoors.
If Xi Jiaxin or Liu Ruyan decided to use a means of revenge, Xia Yangyang would indeed not be well-prepared to respond.
Xia Yangyang knew that the best thing to do was to move back to the Paradise House. That was in Phoenix’s territory and it was safer there.
But ever since she had gotten involved with Gu Qichen, Xia Yangyang had been in a daze.
Given Gu Qichen’s character, he would certainly be waiting for her at the Paradise House.
If she really went back, how would she face Gu Qichen?
In the end, Xia Yangyang gave up.
There were some things that she needed to think through thoroughly.
The events of that night almost made her sick with regret.
She was not the kind to act impulsively, so how did she let that happen?
But what Xia Yangyang didn’t expect was that Gu Qichen would find her at the hotel where she was staying.
Xia Yangyang had just parked her car in the hotel’s underground parking lot when a black Bentley parked opposite Xia Yangyang’s.
Through the windshield of the car, Xia Yangyang clearly saw Gu Qichen in the opposite vehicle.
Was it Gu Qichen who had been following her in the black car earlier?
But the black car did not seem to be a Bentley?
Xia Yangyang didn’t have time to ponder.
Because Gu Qichen had already got out of the car and was heading straight towards her.
Xia Yangyang’s heart suddenly started racing uncontrollably.
She didn’t want to face Gu Qichen, but at last, she had no choice.
Honestly, seeing Gu Qichen now was far more emotionally complex than when she had just returned to the country.
At that time, Xia Yangyang didn’t know the truth, and there was still an issue of past grudges between her and Gu Qichen.
Xia Yangyang had always been afraid that Gu Qichen would fight her for custody of Xia Ye, so she was naturally somewhat hostile to Gu Qichen and kept her distance from him.
But now things were different.
Xia Yangyang now knew that the one who truly killed her mother years ago was Liu Ruyan, and Gu Mingzhu did not have much to do with it.
But knowing the truth four years later didn’t change the current situation.
In the past two years, Gu Qichen had built his own life. His character was completely different, and his feelings towards her were now complicated and tangled up, far from pure love.
Xia Yangyang understood deeply that even without the burden of their family feud, time had carved an insurmountable gap between them.
However, unexpectedly, even without resolving anything, they had slept together.
This was really headache-inducing.
Gu Qichen had already pulled open the door of Xia Yangyang’s car: “Xia Yangyang, get out!”
