She asked her sincerely, “If we’re able to help you return to Gu Yu’s side, you must remember us. When the time comes, please ask Yu to have mercy on us.”
Yun Rou smiled, “Don’t worry, Auntie. I’ll definitely return the favor to whoever I owe it to.”
“Then, let’s hope we’ll work well together.”
“Auntie, since we’re working together, why not let me see how sincere you guys are?”
Rong Fanghua replied, “Yun Rou, you will never get what you want if it’s all you wait for. The time is not right yet, but my husband and I will give you a satisfactory gift for our first meeting.”
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for the good news.”
After hanging up, Yun Rou tossed her phone onto the coffee table and scoffed coldly.
She didn’t believe the reason that Rong Fanghua had given her, but that didn’t stop her from working alongside them. As long as she was able to return to Gu Yu’s side, she didn’t care if she’d have to go down dangerous paths!
There was no doubt in her mind that she and Gu Yu will return to their previous relationship!

When Xu Weilai awakened, she realised that Gu Yu hadn’t gone to work. Instead, he was waiting for her to have breakfast together before he pulled her out the door.
Assistant Lin had come to pick them up. As they got into the car, Xu Weilai couldn’t help but feel a little curious. “Gu Yu, did you find me a private trainer so quickly?”
Even though they had just discussed this issue last night, he was taking her to the private trainer the next morning? This had been prepared so quickly… It was as if everything had been in place, and he was just waiting for her to agree to it.
Perhaps too engrossed in the tablet balanced on his thigh, he cooly muttered, “Mhm”. There was no emotion evident in his voice as he uttered it.
Xu Weilai still had an inexplicable feeling that something was amiss. She wanted to continue asking him, but she didn’t think it was a good idea to interrupt him while he was engrossed in his work. Thus, she prevented herself from asking.
‘Forget it’, she thought. She must’ve been overthinking again.
Since Gu Yu was getting himself concerned about her, she should just accept it.
As she immersed herself in her thoughts, she turned her head and admired the view outside.
Gu Yu lifted his gaze and swiftly glancing over to her. An unreadable look flashed past his eyes, disappearing as quickly as it appeared.
The car pulled up to the entrance of the gym. Gu Yu and Xu Weilai were dropped off first before Assistant Lin went to park the car.
The two made their way in and were received by the receptionist. Since they had made reservations, she led them to the office straightaway. On the way, the receptionist told them, “CEO Gu, Mrs. Gu, Coach Simon is already inside and waiting for the both of you. Please enter.”
Gu Yu nodded coolly before he entered the room while holding Xu Weilai’s hand.
At first glance, Simon didn’t seem to be a fitness coach. He didn’t have bulging muscles like most fitness coaches did. In fact, he looked refined. He wore glasses, and looked to be a gentleman. Even the white robe he had on made him look more like a doctor.
She tugged on Gu Yu’s hand involuntarily. She stood on the tips of her toes and brought her lips to the side of Gu Yu’s ears before asking discreetly, “Is Mr. Simon an actual fitness coach? He doesn’t seem like one…”
A glint flashed past Gu Yu’s eyes. Instead of answering her question, he lowered his gaze and asked her, “Can you tell how old he is right now?”
At his question, Xu Weilai gazed at Simon inadvertently, sizing him up. He looked to be quite young. She guessed, “Probably…at least thirty?”
Simon chuckled and turned his gaze to look at Xu Weilai. He then replied, “Mrs. Gu, I’m already fifty four years old.”
Xu Weilai’s inky eyes instantly grew into the size as saucers. She stared at him in disbelief for a good while, completely unable to tell how he was already fifty four years old.
Sensing that she was being a little rude, Xu Weilai apologised, “My apologies, Mr. Simon. You’ve taken such great care of yourself that I genuinely couldn’t estimate.”
