Gu Yan could not help falling into these beautiful memories. During their time together, she and Mo Yichen mostly had happy memories. She did not reminisce about their time together, but these memories came to her like a flood. Gu Yan’s confused heart gradually became firmer again.
From start to finish, Gu Yan knew exactly what she wanted for a family, right?
“Beep!” Her phone rang and she immediately got excited. “Could it be Mo Yichen? I’ve been waiting for so long, and that must be him, right?” She thought. Gu Yan was a little excited as she took the phone out of her bag in a flurry.
She took out her phone. She had not looked at it for a very long time today because she was afraid that she would be disappointed if Mo Yichen did not show any concern for her. However, even now, he still hadn’t called or messaged. Although Gu Yan was a little disappointed, she still chose to understand Mo Yichen.
The message was not from Mo Yichen. It was, in fact, from Qi Changfeng, who messaged her to tell her that he had gotten home safely.
So fast? Gu Yan felt like she only said good-bye to him moments ago, and yet he was already home? Every time she called for a ride to get to work, it would take ages, but Qi Changfeng had managed to get one in such a short time. Gu Yan couldn’t help heaving a sigh. “That Qi Changfeng sure is lucky.”
“Good. Go to bed early.” Gu Yan replied. She had to tell Qi Changfeng that she had gotten his message. Today, she had to thank Qi Changfeng. If it hadn’t been for him, she had no idea if her mood would have improved so quickly.
Even though she was the one that felt hungry and insisted on eating, she still made Qi Changfeng treat her for a meal. She had bothered him a lot today. She was a bit embarrassed and grateful as well, but she didn’t thank him, because he didn’t like her saying ‘thanks’ to him at any time.
Gu Yan only quietly thanked him in her heart. She thanked him for accompanying her when she was down, even though she clearly knew that she would cause him a great deal of trouble.
After he got her message, he didn’t reply because the nature of their relationship did not allow him to continue chatting. He knew that she was feeling better. Since her mood had improved, everything he had done today was worth it.
He didn’t extinguish his phone, and just let the screen pause on his chat with Gu Yan. He didn’t look at his phone again. He just looked out the window. No one knew what he was thinking.
After replying Qi Changfeng’s message, Gu Yan could not help thinking about Mo Yichen. What was wrong with him today? He did not even send her a single message. Was he still angry?
She knew that Mo Yichen had a lot on his shoulders now. She should be more understanding and not increase his burden. Gu Yan also knew that even though Mo Yichen was very attentive and very good to her most of the time, in essence, he was still a “chauvinist man”.
From a man’s point of view, Mo Yichen might never understand what she really needed. Thinking about it, she felt a sense of relief. Why were both of them so strong headed? Things would be so much easier if one of them would compromise first.
Gu Yan could not stand the feeling of waiting for Mo Yichen’s message anymore. She did not want to wait any longer. Since she loved him, she should not let the conflict between them deepen. This was not what she wanted.
“Are you at home?” She did not know if Mo Yichen was still working overtime, so she sent him a message. She had already decided that if Mo Yichen did not reply to her within 10 minutes, she would call him, no matter what he was doing.
At this very moment, Mo Yichen parked the car in an unknown corner of Annan City. He was standing by the car, and at his feet, there was a pile of cigarette butts. He had been extremely angry earlier and had driven around the streets of Annan City. He was planning on going home.
However, he still couldn’t believe that what he saw earlier was real. Even though he was jealous that Gu Yan was so close to Qi Changfeng, he knew Gu Yan very well. She was definitely not the kind of person who would betray him. As such, he turned around and parked the car by the side of the road at will.
He trusted her character, but how could she explain what he saw with his own eyes? Was it really a misunderstanding?
He really did not know what to do now. He just kept smoking, one after another. He was at a loss. He knew that Gu Yan did not like him smoking, but he didn’t know what else could make him calm down a little.
Mo Yichen coughed and felt as if his throat had been torn apart. He put out the cigarette butt in his hand, which was the last one. He really still had no idea about what he should do next.
“Beep!” He took out his phone. It was a message from Gu Yan, but he did not know how to reply.
He actually found it quite laughable. He was a man, but why had he become so timid now? Indeed, love could make people timid. It made sense.
He knew that he could not delay any longer. He had waited for so long without telling Li Yunhong that Gu Yan was Mo Xiangyan’s mother. He could use this matter to test Gu Yan’s attitude. He wanted to be with Gu Yan forever, but he was afraid that Gu Yan had changed her mind.
Forget it, if he still considered himself a man, he should act like it. So he dialed Gu Yan’s number without any more hesitation. He knew that hesitation would lead him to do the unspeakable.
Gu Yan had been holding onto her phone and counting the time in her heart. She was planning to call Mo Yichen the moment the time was up. Fortunately, he had called back before Gu Yan would dial his number. She finally heaved a sigh of relief. At least he was still willing to call her, right?
The phone rang. She looked at the phone and saw that it was Mo Yichen. She was very happy and immediately answered. In fact, she answered a little too quickly, before Mo Yichen could be mentally prepared, she started speaking.
“Yichen, why did you ignore me the whole day?”Gu Yan’s voice was filled with grievance. It was not that he couldn’t tell, but when he thought of what he saw today, he felt a little odd.
