Chapter 490: Should I go back to him?
In the ward.
Gu Yanchuan was still feeling a little down because Su Man's transformation was so fast, and the less than 24 hours they spent together seemed too good to be true. He even wondered if it was just a dream.
He cursed himself in his heart countless times for his incompetence and told himself not to care about that woman anymore.
But I still can't help but think of that woman, and think of myself who was once humble and longed for maternal love.
bite!
The phone rings.
It was that woman calling.
When he saw the caller ID, Gu Yanchuan was dazed for a moment.
In the past, every time I picked up the phone, I would hear the woman's curses, saying that he was a dirty thing and hoping that he and the old man would die soon. But he still answered the call every time as if to torture himself.
Will there be insults and curses this time?
Just as the ringing was about to stop, Gu Yanchuan reached out and clicked to answer the call.
He held his breath.
"Hey, Yanchuan."
There was no hysteria as imagined, and Gu Yanchuan let out a sigh of relief.
"Um."
"I have some things to take care of these two days, so I can't go to the hospital to see you." Her voice was apologetic and worried. Gu Yanchuan didn't know how to describe the feeling in his heart, which sounded like joy and grievance.
He just responded coldly: "Yeah."
There was silence on the other end of the line for a while, and Gu Yanchuan clenched the phone tightly.
Did she think his attitude was too cold? Would she start to hate him again in a fit of rage? She is not the type to be humble at all. Maybe after being treated coldly a few times, she will no longer pay attention to him.
But he didn't know what he should say.
Why do you care so much about this woman's feelings? She had been so bad to him before.
Just when Gu Yanchuan was almost dying of worry, Su Man said, "I'll go to the hospital to see you the day after tomorrow."
Su Man understood that Ji Xiuci would not agree to a divorce easily, and it might take a long time to sort things out. She planned to send the divorce agreement to Ji's family and then go abroad. If Ji Xiuci had any objections, they could negotiate slowly.
Su Man never forgot the scene when Gu Yanchuan secretly looked at her at the door of the ward when she was leaving the hospital.
That child still hopes that she can stay, right?
He is now injured and in hospital, and is weak and helpless. As his biological mother, it would be best for her to stay by his side.
As for the future...
There's probably no reason to get close to him anymore.
When Gu Yanchuan heard Su Man say that she would come to the hospital to see him, his stern face cracked a little and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. So this woman actually still cares about him, right?
Then he could forgive her a little.
Just a little bit.
Su Man reminded again: "You must take good care of yourself." Perhaps because she had never said such words to Gu Yanchuan before, her tone was a little stiff.
She has been a mother for nearly nineteen years. But she never knew how to be a qualified mother. She even kept hypnotizing herself, suppressing her feelings for the child and telling herself that she should hate him.
Because he represents her humiliating past.
Over the years, I have loved him instinctively, yet hated him stubbornly. Finally, facing life and death, she realized how fragile the so-called hatred was, and her love for him had never faded.
"Yanchuan, you have to be well."
Gu Yanchuan responded, "Yeah." After a pause, he added, "You too."
He doesn't care about this woman, no!
He just didn't know why his mouth was cramping.
"Um..." Gu Yanchuan silently changed the subject, "Didn't that Ji guy say he broke his head? Don't you need to take care of him?"
While waiting for the answer, Gu Yanchuan couldn't help but feel nervous.
It is not impossible for this woman to choose to stay in the country and take care of the old man named Ji. Although he really disliked the old man, this woman seemed to love the man surnamed Ji very much.
Besides, if this woman came to see him, the old man might have some opinions.
He didn't want to embarrass her.
It'll just be a little uncomfortable.
"He..." Su Man hesitated, "This is a misunderstanding, he is not seriously injured, I..."
Gu Yanchuan quickly guessed the truth: "He lied to you?"
Damn, this old man is too jealous. She just heard that he was about to die and came to visit him, but he ended up telling such a lie to trick the woman back. Is it interesting?
I knew this old man was very twisted.
After hesitating for two seconds, Su Man said, "Yanchuan, I want a divorce." She left the Ji family openly today. Perhaps people in the circle had already started spreading the news that she wanted a divorce, and Gu Yanchuan would know it sooner or later.
"What!" Gu Yanchuan was stunned.
This woman has always appeared to be very happy. She treats the old man of the Ji family with respect and is a loving and filial son to Ji Youli.
There was a lot of noise at the beginning, and she insisted on leaving with the old man named Ji.
It’s only been more than ten years, and they’re getting divorced just like that?
"Did they bully you?" Gu Yanchuan was furious. "I'll help you deal with them."
Su Man's nose felt sore when she heard Gu Yanchuan's words that sounded like defending. This child was so naive that it made people feel distressed. If it were her, she would never forgive him.
"No, they didn't bully me."
"Is it... because of me?" The old man broke up with this woman because she insisted on going abroad to see him?
"No." Su Man quickly denied, "It's not your problem."
"Yanchuan, I was immature before. I only cared about love affairs, which caused you to be hurt so deeply. I am not a competent mother."
"Whether you are still willing to accept it or not, I want to make up for what I owe you over the years."
A thought suddenly arose in Gu Yanchuan's mind: Does this woman want to return home? Go back to the old man and him?
This is not...not impossible.
Considering that she cried so sincerely beside the bed yesterday, I'll give her a chance.
But, hum, he still needs to observe her further.
I won't forgive her so easily.
"Well, what are your plans for the future?" Are you going to go back to him? If the old man knew this, he would be very happy, right?
Gu Yanchuan couldn't help but think of the night of his coming-of-age ceremony, when the old man locked himself in the study, drinking while calling the woman's name.
The old man has actually been waiting for her to change her mind.
Unexpectedly, Su Man continued, "I want to do something I like in the future. It's also good to live alone."
After going through so many things, Su Man suddenly realized that she had been a canary all her life, but had never lived for herself, and had invisibly hurt many people because of her love-mindedness.
From now on, I will no longer be fought over by men.
She had no intention of returning home, and Gu Yanchuan didn't know whether he was happy or sad.
"Yanchuan, I'm sorry for hurting you before."
"Yeah." It's okay.
