Ex-Husband, Please Let Go

For two years of their hidden marriage, Ji Shuyu poured all her love into Gu Xiuyuan. She thought she could finally enter his heart, but it couldn't stand against the return of his old flame.

Chapter 209: Three Months, Give Him a Surprise

"Love is not what you think." He looked at her.

Although he knew it would be difficult to avoid misunderstanding, he hoped she could believe him.

"I know."

She had a smile on her face and said she believed it, but every look in her eyes told him that she was forcing herself to believe it.

Gu Xiuyuan held his forehead, feeling helpless and a little annoyed.

"Xiaoyu, it really is a misunderstanding."

"Love is not what you think. I just want to push her away."

He just wanted to push Huo Yuxuan away, but ended up falling down in such an ambiguous posture.

As for why the situation had turned out like that, even his own explanation seemed somewhat unconvincing.

He tried to understand her sensitivity, but he felt uncomfortable because of her distrust.

He thought that after the two of them had been through so much, she should have at least some trust in him...

"I really believe it, let's eat first!"

When she opened the window to get some fresh air, Ji Shuyu realized that her hands were shaking.

"Do you have more work to do? I'll wait until you finish your meal..."

Gu Xiuyuan took a few steps forward and hugged her from behind.

"Where are you going at this moment? If there's any misunderstanding, why don't we just explain it to each other?"

Ji Shuyu turned her head to look at him, then smiled.

In fact, she should know.

They have been through so much love, she should trust him.

"I was just thinking, if I can finish it sooner, I can..."

Gu Xiuyuan put his arm around her waist, brought her into his arms, then bent down and kissed her.

Whether it was the sudden smell of alcohol or a subconscious reaction, Ji Shuyu turned her face away and his lips brushed against her cheek...

Ji Shuyu was stunned. The arm around her waist suddenly loosened its grip.

Gu Xiuyuan looked at her and loosened his arms in disappointment.

So, she didn't believe it at all...

"Xiuyuan..."

"No." He ruffled her hair. "I know I smell bad. You should take a rest!"

He walked over to his desk and sat down, but the delicious food tasted like wax, and every bite he took was a mouthful.

Ji Shuyu felt regretful in her heart, but she needed some time to digest it.

"Then you go ahead and do it! I'm tired."

She lowered her head and walked out dejectedly.

Gu Xiuyuan was angry, but looking at the lonely figure, he couldn't help but get up and chase after him.

"Xiao Yu."

Having drunk too much, his steps were a little unsteady.

"Let's do it together."

The two of them went to Xizi Bay together, but they were silent all the way, and no one spoke.

This feeling is even more suffocating.

Ji Shuyu did not sleep well that night.

Gu Xiuyuan was busy in the study late at night. When he came back, he didn't hug her as usual, but fell asleep with his back to her.

The news in Gu Xiuyuan's office was not spread. Firstly, few people knew about it, and secondly, it was gossip about the daughter of the Huo family, so no one dared to discuss it.

Xia Mei was sitting in Gu Xiuyuan's office.

Although she didn't know what exactly happened, she certainly couldn't hide the fact that Huo Yuxuan was "invited" out.

"Gu Xiuyuan, are you crazy?" Xia Mei was extremely angry.

"No matter what, the Gu and Huo companies are still cooperating, and a large amount of subsequent funds still need the support of the Huo family. Have you thought about the consequences of doing this?"

Gu Xiuyuan was feeling annoyed and didn't bother to pay attention to her.

At this moment, he only regretted not throwing that woman Huo Yuxuan out of the room.

Looking at his stubborn appearance, Xia Mei became furious.

"Either you treat Huo Yuxuan to a meal and apologize, or I'll talk to Ji Shuyu. It's up to you!"

Xia Mei threw down a bowl and stood up.

Gu Xiuyuan was so angry that he overturned the documents on the table.

"Zhou Rui, come in for a moment."

"Boss."

"Have you made an appointment at the hospital?"

"Everything has been arranged." Zhou Rui said, "Your appointments have also been postponed."

"Okay, got it."

Zhou Rui hesitated to speak, "Boss, the Huo family..."

In fact, he blamed himself. If he had not let go of Boss before leaving, the subsequent events might not have happened.

Gu Xiuyuan rubbed his brows and finally compromised.

"Book a restaurant for dinner."

Zhou Rui was startled, then nodded: "I understand..."

After the unpleasant incident between the two, Gu Xiuyuan became even busier. Sometimes he would come to her when she was asleep, and when she woke up he was gone.

Ji Shuyu wanted to apologize several times, but couldn't find a suitable opportunity.

Hospital.

Gu Xiuyuan accompanied Ji Shuyu to the hospital for a prenatal checkup.

It was already the thirteenth week, and Ji Shuyu had been a little nervous, her palms sweating while waiting for the results.

Gu Xiuyuan held her hand and stayed by her side, "Relax."

"Doctor, how is my baby?"

"Don't worry! The child is healthy," the doctor reassured. "The most important thing for you right now is to relax and not stress."

"This will be beneficial to the growth of the two babies."

"Yeah, yeah!" She nodded happily, indicating that she understood.

Some time ago, due to mental stress, she was really worried about her baby's health.

After coming out of the hospital, Ji Shuyu looked at Gu Xiuyuan.

After what happened that day, she felt that she always owed him an apology.

It's rare that the atmosphere today isn't awkward and dull.

"Xiuyuan, let's have lunch together!"

Gu Xiuyuan looked at her happy face and couldn't bear to refuse.

"Xiao Yu, I have an appointment at noon today. After I drop you off, I'll rush over."

Oh, she was a little down.

"Are you still at work today?"

"I'll be busy for the next few days. What's wrong?"

Ji Shuyu knew that he was still angry and blamed herself for not trusting him.

"Xiuyuan, that day..."

"It's over." Gu Xiuyuan smiled. "The weather has been bad recently. You should stay home and take the medicine prescribed by the doctor on time. Remember to get more rest."

"I didn't."

"Be good and don't make me worry, okay?"

"oh."

Although he was a little unhappy, he nodded.

I can't help him with anything, so it seems that I can only make him worry less.

"Xiaoyu, I don't mean anything else." Gu Xiuyuan stroked her face gently, "I've been busy since you got pregnant and ignored you."

Ji Shuyu shook her head. "No, I just wanted to say sorry."

"Silly girl, we don't need these two words between us. I'll give you a gift."

Xizi Bay.

"Xiuyuan!" Ji Shuyu got out of the car, "Can you come earlier this weekend?"

Gu Xiuyuan didn't understand her intention, but nodded anyway.

"Okay, I'll try to free up time on weekend nights."

Ji Shuyu listened, breathed a sigh of relief, and then waved goodbye to her.

"Baby, if mommy sincerely apologizes to daddy, he won't be angry!"

She murmured softly, her cheeks suddenly red.

"Young Madam, come up!"

"Auntie, let me make a list and you help me buy some things."

"Yeah, okay."

Auntie agreed with a smile.

The atmosphere between the young couple has been a little off lately, but now that the young lady is trying to make peace, things should get better soon.

"Young Madam, I want to visit your family this weekend." Auntie smiled.

Since coming to Xizi Bay, she hasn't gone out once since the New Year in order to take care of Ji Shuyu.

How could Ji Shuyu not know her aunt's good intentions, so she nodded and agreed.

weekend.

Ji Shuyu carefully prepared dinner, and her aunt left early when she was almost done.

After preparing dinner, Ji Shuyu changed her clothes.

When I saw that sexy pajamas, I couldn't help but blush...
