Wen Yi first met Gu Huaixu and lost her heart. The rebellion and subtlety between her and Gu Huaixu became an inescapable joy for Wen Yi.
"So you mean, we just missed each other for one night?" Gu Zeyu looked incredulous.
It's quite frustrating, and there's really nothing we can do.
Even at the very end, Gu Zeyu's lips curled into a mocking smile.
Wen Yi took a sip of the warm water. There was nothing more to say. She had been very honest with Gu Zeyu this time and told him the truth.
"And then, you still haven't told me how you ended up eloping?"
"Before answering this question, could you please give me the address of Gu Huaixu's grave?" Wen Yi asked.
“Since you were with him and even eloped, I can understand why you didn’t attend his funeral, since the Gu family handled this matter discreetly. But it’s a bit unreasonable that you didn’t know where his grave was.”
Gu Zeyu said, "I believe that since you have this kind of relationship, Ah Xu's men will come to you later and tell you everything that should and shouldn't be told to you."
These words made Wen Yi lower her eyes and silently clench her hands on her thighs.
After a long pause, Wen Yi said, "At that time, I didn't ask anything."
Even now, Wen Yi still can't open the suicide note Gu Huaixu left for her.
I can't handle it.
If it weren't for the bartender's sudden message, Wen Yi might never have been able to let go of this in her life, and she still can't now.
Go to the house where you lived together, go to Gu Huaixu's purpose, go to the hospital where he died, and... the top floor of Jinlumen.
These are places that Wen Yi cannot even set foot in, nor can he even imagine.
But now, everything has pushed Wen Yi to the limit. She wants to escape, but she can't escape anymore.
Wen Yi reached out and wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. "Young Master Gu, can you tell me?"
Gu Zeyu didn't answer, but instead picked up his phone and fiddled with it for a bit, after which Wen Yi's phone screen lit up.
She received a message from Gu Zeyu containing the exact address of Gu Huaixu's grave.
"Because this matter is quite troublesome, my mother chose to handle it discreetly, and the cemetery was also chosen in a relatively remote location," Gu Zeyu explained calmly.
Wen Yi gripped her phone, staring at the address displayed. Feeling tears welling in her eyes, she suppressed the pain in her heart, tightened her grip on the phone, and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, thank you."
"You said information exchange." Gu Zeyu was calm this time. "Let's continue."
Wen looked up at Gu Zeyu and forced back her tears.
Gu Zeyu said, "How did we end up eloping and living together... Can I have a cigarette?"
Gu Zeyu was in a lot of pain.
Wen nodded.
Gu Zeyu took out a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket, bent down and lit it.
Wen Yi then began to recount her past, “My family forced me to marry into the Royal Garden in place of Wen Ge. I didn’t want to. I had always thought that as long as I proved that I was better than Wen Ge, I wouldn’t have to marry in place of her. But later I found that it was useless. My parents didn’t acknowledge me.”
"So you eloped with Ah Xu?" Gu Zeyu loosened his tie impatiently.
“No,” Wen Yi denied. “I was planning to abandon everything and leave alone. Before making this decision, I knew that it was impossible between me and A-Xu, and I didn’t want to continue to entangle myself and delay A-Xu from having a better choice.”
"And then you left alone?" Gu Zeyu stared at Wen Yi.
One cigarette doesn't really solve anything.
He took a second one.
Wen Yi said, "After I left, A Xu caught up with me. He said he wanted to stay with me, and I couldn't refuse. I couldn't refuse someone who had walked into my heart and told me that he would stay with me when I was all alone. He told me that he was mine and that he would always be there for me."
Unfortunately, Wen Yi at that time had no idea how important Gu Huaixu was to her.
He was the one who lit a lamp for her when she was most helpless, and showed her her true self. How could she possibly give up on him?
Unfortunately, Wen Yi didn't realize how strong her need for Gu Huaixu was until she completely lost him.
The love is very intense.
Wen Yi lowered her eyes, and large tears fell one by one onto the back of her hand. Wen Yi looked on in a daze.
She is someone who can control her emotions very well. She rarely cries, let alone in front of Gu Zeyu.
When Wen Yi was a little at a loss, Gu Zeyu handed her a tissue.
"Thank you," Wen Yi said, taking a tissue to wipe her face and calm herself down.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect bringing up these things would upset you so much." Gu Zeyu calmed down and returned to his usual state, no longer showing the outburst he had just displayed.
"If you're going to see Ah Xu, it's best to do it at night," Gu Zeyu advised.
Wen Yi grasped the key point, "Why?"
"To avoid trouble, you should visit him less often, and it's best to do so at night to avoid being seen by others." Gu Zeyu didn't directly answer Wen Yi's question, but kept reminding her, "Bring a signal jammer when you go."
Wen Yi felt there was something wrong as she listened, but this time she didn't press the matter further because she had a feeling that the question involved a lot of things that Gu Zeyu wouldn't be able to answer.
Wen nodded and said, "Thank you, Young Master Gu. I will remember your reminder today."
Gu Zeyu gave a faint "hmm," lit his third cigarette, looked out the window, and said nothing more.
Wen Yi didn't say anything either, and the two remained silent. One smoked and looked out the window, while the other looked down at the coffee in his cup.
It wasn't until Gu Zeyu finished smoking a cigarette.
Gu Zeyu looked at Wen Yi, "Before I take you home, could you come with me for a walk in the park across the street?"
"Okay," Wen nodded in agreement.
Gu Zeyu got up and left the restaurant with Wen Yi.
As they walked out of the Golden Deer Gate, a cool breeze blew in. Gu Zeyu subconsciously prepared to take off his coat and give it to Wen Yi, but Wen Yi refused.
"I brought clothes in my car."
The car was parked right next to her, and Wen took a few steps to grab her coat and put it on.
Gu Zeyu watched silently as Wen Yi put on her coat and walked back to him. Suddenly, Gu Zeyu couldn't help but ask, "Have you ever rejected him like this before?"
Wen Yi was stunned. "What?"
"It's nothing." Gu Zeyu realized that his question was somewhat inappropriate and lacked tact, so he composed himself.
Wen Yi understood, and she said, "I would never refuse him."
She never refused any of the requests Gu Huaixu made to her.
Never.
Wen Yi used to think that Gu Huaixu was younger and that she had slept with him, so Gu Huaixu was always at a disadvantage. Whenever he looked aggrieved, Wen Yi would completely surrender.
Later, Wen Yi also realized that there was no reason for her to feel that the other party was at a disadvantage. It was because Wen Yi couldn't bear to refuse Gu Huaixu from the beginning and wanted to give him everything she had.
Unfortunately, from the moment they met, she was barren, having nothing and nothing to give him.
