"Then take good care of yourself. Don't go without food or water, or your body won't be able to handle it." Mother Qi knew her son all too well.
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, he squatted down, gritted his teeth, and tried his best to calm himself down.
After parting ways abroad, neither of them had a good time. He tried to numb himself with work and not think about the problems between them, but time didn't give him a chance to hesitate before she got into trouble.
He couldn't understand why she had stayed with the Chu family for three years.
Chu Xiao left for three years. She had many opportunities to leave, but she didn't leave or make it public. She just quietly became Chu's daughter-in-law.
Perhaps she truly loves Chu Xiao.
He personally shattered this idea more than a year ago; it definitely wasn't for this reason.
That night, he got drunk, but she was sober. She quickly fled and later made up a good excuse about amnesia. As perceptive as he was, he naturally noticed that she was different from three years ago.
He didn't delve into it. No matter how well a person hides their true nature, there will always be times when they are accidentally exposed. He waited, and what he waited for was a different side of her. This side of her was more attractive and more charming.
The two had known each other for three years, but they hadn't had much contact during that time. He rarely sought opportunities to get close to her or secretly help her, only because of Yu Ning's request. He carried this request with him and helped her for three years, unexpectedly gaining something different in the process.
He never thought of taking care of her through marriage. He was not a selfish person. He would not treat anyone as a substitute for Yu Ning. Yu Ning was a unique person, and so was Lan Qingyue. They were both unique individuals and could not replace each other.
When I proposed to her, I was serious, more serious than ever before.
He finally emerged from the pain of losing Yu Ning, and for the first time faced his own heart. For the first time, he wanted to give her a home, a warm home.
Situ Qing stayed in the corridor for a long time, thinking about many things, until a pair of shiny leather shoes appeared in front of her. It was Gu Yizhi.
Gu Yizhi didn't sleep all night, but his mental state was still very good; this was the side of him that he had been suppressing.
Having been in this circle for a long time, they have to learn to be patient and not let their opponents see their vulnerable side.
"Ah Yu, let's talk!"
As Gu Yizhi spoke, he walked towards the rooftop, and Qi Yu followed him.
Gu Yizhi stood in front of the railing on the top floor, gazing into the distance with an air of superiority. The bustling traffic was nothing more than a tiny dot in his eyes.
"Ayu, do you know why I called you here to talk?"
Qi Yu remained silent.
Gu Yizhi knew there would be no answer, so he answered his own question, "Because this place is the quietest. The wind is strong and cold, which can calm the heat in your heart and make your heart more peaceful."
Qi Yu's probing gaze lingered on Gu Yizhi.
Gu Yizhi didn't turn around, but he could still feel the gaze behind him.
This is a required skill for them; even without facing the other party directly, they must be able to easily sense that aura.
"I know you were conflicted just now, conflicted about your relationship with your little sister, and also conflicted about your past with Yu Ning, right?"
Qi Yu pursed his lips and remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.
“The two look so alike, like they were made from the same mold. Sometimes I even get confused and think it’s Yu Ning.” Gu Yizhi spread his arms to welcome the biting cold wind. “What about you? Can you tell Qingyue and Yu Ning apart? Can you tell that they are actually two very similar-looking sisters?”
