Chapter 298: Don’t you want to stay?
Su Jiuyao took a sip of tea and nodded. No matter what her relationship with Gu Hanye was, she belonged in Haicheng, not here.
"Will you come back?" Robin asked as if with the last bit of hope.
Su Jiuyao smiled and said, "Yes, if I have the chance, I will come back to see you and Henri."
But this answer was obviously not what Robin really wanted.
He was silent for a moment, then asked, "If I ask you to stay, will you agree?"
Su Jiuyao lowered her head. She would not agree. She thought Robin knew it very well.
Robin smiled bitterly: "Anyway, thank you for your company during this time."
Jiuyao shook her head: "I'm the one who should say thank you."
She put down the cup and looked up at Robin: "Although Sister Lu Ning gave me her cornea, I can never replace Sister Lu Ning. You actually know that."
Robin's eyes suddenly turned red: "I know, I'm sorry..."
Jiuyao shook her head. She could understand Robin's feelings.
Living in the manor these days and seeing him living in depression every day, Su Jiuyao knew that although Robin lived in this beautiful manor like a castle and had assets that could not be spent for several generations, his heart was already a collapsed city, desolate, miserable and lifeless.
Because that innocent woman who understood him and loved him more than his family would never come back.
This is probably the feeling of a dead heart...
Robin covered his face with his hands, sobbing softly through his fingers. He murmured, "What should I do if I can't get over it... Is death really the only option?"
Jiuyao sighed, and after a moment she said, "Since you can't forget, just remember it hard, Robin. You still have Henri. Only by accompanying him to grow up can Sister Lu Ning feel at ease."
Robin took his hands away from his face and nodded with red eyes.
Su Jiuyao felt even more sad when she saw him like that. If Sister Lu Ning knew that the man she loved missed her so much, would she be relieved or worried?
In the following days, Jiuyao stayed at Robin's manor during the day, reading books, playing piano, and playing games with Henri.
At night, he returned to the lakeside villa and slept in Gu Hanye's arms.
Gu Hanye was very obedient. Knowing that her eyes were still recovering, he would definitely not do anything rash.
But as the president of Gu Group, a week-long vacation is already the limit for him, not to mention that two weeks have already passed.
He couldn't stay with Jiuyao until Henri's seventh birthday, so he had to return home early.
That morning, after finishing a remote meeting, Gu Hanye walked out of the villa, came to the porch, and hugged the little woman who was staring at the lake in a trance from behind.
"Yaoyao, I have to leave tomorrow."
"Um……"
"You won't even try to keep me here?"
Su Jiuyao pursed her lips. She didn't want him to leave, but he had work to do and she really couldn't say the words to keep him.
Gu Hanye sighed, "Forget it. I know you're easily shy. I'll just assume you're trying like crazy to keep me."
“…”
"After I leave, can you promise me two things?"
“As long as it’s reasonable.”
Gu Hanye looked down at Jiuyao and gave a helpless smile, "Are you too wary of me? Don't worry, you can do it."
He paused, tightened his arms slightly, and hugged Jiuyao more tightly in his arms, and continued: "First, you are absolutely not allowed to stay overnight outside. If you go out, you must let Ah Fei accompany you."
Su Jiuyao thought about it and felt that there was no problem: "Okay, what about the second one?"
