Chapter 618: Divorce is the only way out
Since Gu Qingshi had management experience, there was no problem for her to take over the Gu family. She had no control over the other people like Gu Chan, but even though she had no control over them, she still found out about their affairs very quickly.
For example, Lin Zhiyuan, who had disappeared for a while, suddenly came back. It seemed that he had been wandering for a while. After coming back, without waiting for Gu Chan and the others to be happy, he filed for a divorce.
"Gu Chan, let's get a divorce. This is the best thing for us. You can continue to pursue your life, and I can continue to believe in this world and continue to live."
He was afraid of Gu Chan before, and he didn't even dare to believe in this world. The person beside him suddenly became unrecognizable. He didn't know who he could trust, so he ran away.
After escaping for a few days, he finally found a way out. He could turn around and separate from Gu Chan. The path he had chosen before was to grow old with Gu Chan, and he never thought of turning back.
But Gu Chan was not like that. On the road to growing old together with him, there was someone else. He couldn't accept that, so he decided to turn around and take another path.
Gu Chan made him despair and he couldn't face her, so he wanted to break up with Gu Chan.
It’s not like Gu Chan hadn’t thought about this possibility before, but when Lin Zhiyuan really brought it up, she still felt dizzy.
"I don't want a divorce. Zhiyuan, you know how much I love you. I can't live without you. If you divorce me, what will I do? How can I live on?"
She compromised so much for Lin Zhiyuan. The first time she knelt down and the first time she slapped herself were all to keep Lin Zhiyuan. She would never divorce.
"I won't get divorced, Zhiyuan. I can swear that I won't do it again. Please believe me."
Lin Zhiyuan naturally knew that Gu Chan loved him, "But your love is different from my love."
His love is loyal and unique, but Gu Chan's is not.
"Xiaochan, let's part ways in peace. I don't want to continue to investigate how many times you betrayed me during this period, and I don't want to think of that painting every time I see you."
Lin Zhiyuan's face was filled with pain. "My brain has memorized that picture. It keeps popping up in my mind. No matter how I block it out, it's useless. It keeps torturing me."
"I ran away because whenever I saw you, that picture would appear in my mind unconsciously. Every minute and every second I faced you would be more painful for me. Unless we were no longer husband and wife, I could not face you directly."
Gu Chan's face turned pale, and he backed away and collapsed on the ground. When he saw her, he thought of that painting. Did he think of the scene of her betraying him all the time?
She didn't dare to think about such a scene, and after hearing what Lin Zhiyuan said, she couldn't face Lin Zhiyuan anymore.
She covered her face, tearing her heart out, "Don't look at my face, don't look."
Gu Chan had no way out and no choice but to agree to a divorce.
She didn't want to leave only her dissolute side in Lin Zhiyuan's heart. She didn't want Lin Zhiyuan to think of the painting when he saw her, otherwise she would go crazy.
Gu Chan and Lin Zhiyuan didn't tell anyone and went straight into the divorce procedures. Except for Gu Yong, no one knew the reason for their divorce.
Gu Jianye was extremely shocked and angry, but no matter how he questioned, Lin Zhiyuan didn't say the reason except sorry, and Gu Chan couldn't stand it, "Dad, don't ask me anymore. It's because I'm sorry to Zhiyuan that Zhiyuan got divorced. It's not his fault."
"I'm sorry, Dad. I didn't fulfill my promise to treat her well for the rest of her life. I'm sorry." Lin Zhiyuan apologized to Gu Jianye. "If I can, Dad, I will do what I promised before and continue to be half your son."
Gu Jianye looked at Lin Zhiyuan and took a deep breath, "Since you said you don't blame you, then I won't blame you."
Knowing that it was Gu Chan who was sorry for Lin Zhiyuan, Gu Jianye stopped blaming him and even took back the things he had left for Lin Zhiyuan. "Come back often when you have time. I will also come to see you. We can't be father-in-law and son-in-law, but we can be father and son."
"Okay, thanks, Dad."
"No need to thank me, I should be the one thanking you." When Gu Xinzhi disappeared and he couldn't find him, feeling guilty and lonely, it was his son-in-law Lin Zhiyuan who cared about him and accompanied him, went fishing and playing chess with him, and took care of him when he was sick. He should be thanking him.
Gu Jianye prepared a house for Lin Zhiyuan, thinking that he could live there after he moved out of Gu's house, but Lin Zhiyuan refused, "I have a house to live in."
Gu Qingshi sighed for a moment after learning that Lin Zhiyuan and Gu Chan were divorced, and then learned something from Taohua, "Sister, the beggar I told you about before, he turned out to be Lin Zhiyuan. I really didn't realize at the time that he really was like a beggar."
"He suddenly showed up at my house yesterday and thanked me. I was really shocked."
Gu Qingshi: "So the person you mentioned before, who was hanging out at your door, was Lin Zhiyuan?"
"Yes, it's him. He said he bought a house there a long time ago, but because he was deceived by other painters, and he never lived there, he never came here."
Lin Zhiyuan was too embarrassed to tell Gu Chan that place actually became his safe haven in the end. When he was escaping from Gu Chan, he unconsciously went to a place she didn't know and met Tao Hua.
"He thought the place I lived in was the house he bought. Because he was confused, he didn't know to tell me, let alone drive me away. He squatted at the door when he saw that I couldn't get in."
Lin Zhiyuan was too tired to walk, and after Taohua gave him food and drink, he could walk even less.
"This time he came with his luggage, and besides thanking me, he told me that he wanted to live in his home, and asked me if I could give his house back to him, and also said that we could live together if I didn't have a place to live."
"Is that his house?" Gu Qingshi didn't expect there to be such a story.
"It's not his. He remembered it wrongly." Taohua was at a loss for words. "The house he bought is next door. No one lived there for many years, and he never came to take care of it. It has been occupied by someone for many years."
Gu Qingshi: ".He didn't find anyone to rent it out?"
"No, so it was occupied by someone else. When I came to work, he asked the family to move out, but they didn't want to move at all. They wanted to stay there, saying that it was their home."
Gu Qingshi couldn't help but sigh, "He is really confused." He is too much of an artist. Apart from art, he is not good at other daily necessities.
The matter of Lin Zhiyuan had been going on for several days. That family was a bunch of scoundrels. He was clearly the owner of the house, but there was nothing he could do when the family was lying on the ground. In the end, Taohua couldn't bear it anymore and helped him to drive the family out.
Taohua has a really straightforward personality, and now she is even more powerful. In the end, she stepped in and drove the man away.
From that day on, Lin Zhiyuan looked at Taohua with admiration. He felt that Taohua had said everything he wanted to say, and he followed Taohua in a very proud manner.
Lin Zhiyuan thanked Taohua, but Taohua was a little disgusted with him, "Sister, I know he is a great painter, and I thought he was very good, but I have seen him for a long time, and he is not good at anything."
"There's nothing we can do about those people. They can't even cook or make fire. They're worse than children."
