Gu Wan saw that the diagnosis was in the middle to late stages. Without treatment, she would have to live for about half a year, which meant she still had some time to live. At home, Chen Yu and An He Nuan should be in similar situations now.
An He Nuan's career in China was also struggling. This time, she accepted Chen Yu's kindness and got a few orders pushed by Shen's company. However, she was still tormented in her heart. The stubbornness she had been struggling to hold on to seemed to collapse at this moment.
Assistant Zhao would mention this matter from time to time when sending messages to Gu Wan.
Gu Wan applied for a leave of absence from school. She felt very sorry for the original owner for not being able to give her the extra gift that would help her complete her studies. She returned to China quietly.
Aunt Liu was a little surprised to see Gu Wan carrying luggage.
“Boss Shen didn’t tell me in advance, I’ll go buy some food and make you a table full of delicious food.”
Gu Wan smiled and acted coquettishly, then nodded and went forward to hug Aunt Liu, "Thank you, Aunt Liu."
Aunt Liu always felt that the child was a little different this time.
Gu Wan couldn't help but vomit when she returned to the room. These reactions had already appeared and would become more serious later. She washed her face and looked at herself in the mirror. For the original owner, death was a relief. She changed into comfortable pajamas, lay down on the bed and began to sleep until Gu Zhou came and knocked on the door.
Gu Wan nodded.
Gu Zhou pushed the door open after hearing Gu Wan's voice. There was a warm light on in the room, but it wasn't bright. Seeing that she was still lying in bed, he sat down on the edge of the bed helplessly, "Go downstairs to eat. Aunt Liu has been busy all afternoon and made all your favorite dishes."
Gu Wan opened her eyes drowsily, half sat up, reached out and hugged Gu Zhou, her tone was very soft, "Brother."
Gu Zhou heard her gurgling sound and reached out to touch her head. "Why are you acting like a spoiled brat after only being away for a few months? Are you short of money?"
Gu Wan snorted dully, "I'm rich, I earned it all myself, I don't want your money." After saying that, she loosened her arm, got out of bed and put on her slippers.
Gu Zhou squatted down and brought her the other slipper that was farther away, then put it on her. "Okay, you're the best at making money."
Gu Wan stood up straight, her long hair a little messy. She took Gu Zhou's hand and said seriously, "Brother, will you always be so good to me? I feel like I'm dreaming."
Gu Zhou felt that she was a little strange today, "Have you become stupid today?"
Gu Wan held his arm, as if hanging on him, "Very smart."
The two of them had just come downstairs, and Gu Jin also arrived home. He and Gu Wan hadn't seen each other for a while. He took off his helmet and casually tidied his hair, "Oh, you're back." After saying that, he looked at so many delicious foods on the table and wanted to reach out to take them.
Gu Wan hit his hand immediately and said fiercely, "Go wash your hands."
Gu Jin rolled his eyes and said, "Just wash your hands. Why are you so fierce?" After saying that, he threw his helmet aside and went to wash his hands.
Gu Wan sat down and pursed her lips, as if she was afraid of being scolded. "Brother, I have to confess something to you."
Gu Zhou was peeling shrimp for her and nodded casually, "Talk."
Gu Wan thought for a moment before speaking, "I've applied for a leave of absence."
Gu Zhou knew Gu Wan well. She was not the kind of person who would do these things for no reason, but she obviously didn't want to talk about it now. So forget it, he wouldn't force her.
"Okay, as long as you're happy."
Gu Jin, who had just washed his hands, heard these words, "What's the matter? Brother, you won't give her shares behind my back, right? You must remember that I am your biological brother." He sat down carelessly while saying this.
Gu Zhou gave him a cold look.
"The shares have nothing to do with you. Support yourself."
Gu Jin knew this would happen. He had plenty of money. He glanced at Gu Wan again and asked, "Why do I feel like you don't look very good?"
"I haven't adjusted to the jet lag yet." Gu Wan replied lightly.
Gu Wan went to see Grandpa Shen the next day. She did not take the initiative to contact Shen Yu. After all, there was still one last big plot.
Grandpa Shen was in good health, and he was hoping that Shen Yu and Gu Wan could get married and have another child.
Gu Wan went there early on purpose and cooked for Grandpa Shen.
After dinner, Gu Wan helped Grandpa Shen take a walk in the garden.
Grandpa Shen looked at Gu Wan and said, "Grandpa always feels that you are very worried this time. Tell me, did something happen between you and Shen Yu?"
Gu Wan wore a turquoise skirt today and had her hair simply braided, looking very refreshing.
"Grandpa, I really can't hide anything from you."
Grandpa Shen pointed to the bench next to him, and the two of them sat down.
"Go ahead."
Gu Wan looked down at the stones on the ground and thought over and over again, "Grandpa, Chen Yu is very good, excellent in every way, but I am not worthy of him, and he has someone in his heart. We are engaged, which will make it very difficult for Chen Yu to deal with it."
Grandpa Shen didn't say anything after hearing what Gu Wan said. He put his hands on his crutches and sighed again, "Then Grandpa asks you, do you like him?"
Gu Wan raised her head, then lowered it again, kicking the stones below with her feet, and said vaguely, "It doesn't really matter whether I like it or not."
Grandpa Shen reached out and patted the back of her head.
Gu Wan cried out, "It hurts."
Grandpa Shen looked as if he hated her for not fighting for it, "If you like it, go for it. You silly girl, you are far from what I was back then."
Wait until Gu Wan leaves the old house.
Chen Yu was bombarded with phone calls from Mr. Shen. Looking at the person in charge who was making a report, he stood up and left the office.
"Chen Yu, do you like Gu Wan?"
"If you don't like Gu Wan, then cancel the engagement. If you like her, then be together and sort out the mess on your side."
"Hurry up."
Mr. Shen said a lot and then hung up the phone, this little bastard.
Chen Yu frowned and looked at his phone, somewhat puzzled, and sent a message to Gu Wan.
"Where are you?"
Gu Wan was contacting the marketing company at home using her overseas account. This matter needed to be moved forward as quickly as possible, after all, time was running out.
"At home."
Chen Yu had met her two months ago when he was on a business trip abroad.
"Let's have dinner together sometime. The sweet and sour pork ribs you made last time were very good."
"Why, do you want me to send it to you now?"
Gu Wan didn't mind giving it another push. She first broke the news to the marketing account that the Shen and Gu families were about to get married, and then she spent a sum of money to send it to the marketing company, making sure it was at the top of the trending searches.
Chen Yu's lips curled up when he saw these words. He knew that he liked Gu Wan, but he didn't know to what extent this liking would extend. He also had to resolve An He Nuan's issue. Grandpa was right.
“That’s too much work.”
Gu Wan didn't reply to him again. It was the same producer from last time who invited Gu Wan to be the costume director for one of their TV series on behalf of a friend.
The producer is very humble.
Gu Wan wanted to refuse directly, but when she saw the information that the TV series was actually under the Shen Group, she agreed to take it because she had a hunch that the show might not fall into her hands.
The producer thought Gu Wan was actually very easy to talk to, so he immediately told his friend and even sent him Gu Wan’s WeChat.
But less than two hours later, Gu Wan received an apology message from the other party.
Chen Yu looked at the items he had brought over and said, "Let's stick to the old rules. Give it to An Henuan."
Assistant Zhao took a look and took out one of them separately. "Boss Shen, this is an investment that the company values more this year. The clothing director has been hired as Mr. Yun, who was very popular some time ago."
Moreover, Miss An had a grudge against this guy, as he had watched the entire process until the end last time.
Without even looking up, Chen Yu refused directly, "No need."
Assistant Zhao seemed to be hesitant to speak, but he was not the boss. "Okay," he said, then he went out with the documents.
After Chen Yu finished his work, he called An He Nuan directly. This was their first contact after the cold war.
An He Nuan was a little hesitant when she saw Chen Yu's call, but she finally answered it.
"See you at the Hengbei Road coffee shop at 8 o'clock."
Chen Yu didn't exchange pleasantries, just said one sentence and then hung up the phone.
An He Nuan knew yesterday that Gu Wan was back. She knew that as long as Gu Wan came back, Chen Yu would always change. It was ridiculous that their years of relationship were not as good as the few times Gu Wan met him.
Chen Yu arrived ten minutes early.
The coffee shop was very quiet, almost empty.
An He Nuan was five minutes late. "Sorry, there was a traffic jam."
Chen Yu understood and raised his hand to signal the waiter to bring coffee.
An He Nuan looked at Chen Yu quietly, "You asked me to come here, is it related to Gu Wan?"
Chen Yu was not surprised that she could bring it up. An He Nuan had always been like this. People who didn't know her thought she was easy to approach, gentle, quiet and introverted, but the truth was that she had a strong self-esteem and a sense of superiority. Back then, he felt that this kind of An He Nuan was extremely suitable for him, and only aloof people could understand each other.
"Sorry, He Nuan, we may not be able to go back to the past. I have fallen in love with Gu Wan."
Although An He Nuan knew he would bring it up, she still felt uncomfortable when she heard it. She frowned slightly, "So, you want to break up with me, right? Chen Yu."
Chen Yu's eyes were very calm. Adults have to bear the consequences of their decisions. "I'll ask Assistant Zhao to give you several major projects under the Shen Group as compensation."
An He Nuan laughed after hearing these words. She never thought that Chen Yu would be so ruthless. Did he like Gu Wan so much?
"But Chen Yu, do you know that Miss Gu likes you? Do you think she would feel like she's a mistress?"
Chen Yu felt that Gu Wan had feelings for him. Hearing her say this, his tone unconsciously took on a hint of seriousness, "These things have nothing to do with you."
An He Nuan took a deep breath, "Chen Yu, if you force me to break up with you, I will make all the things about Gu Wan being a mistress be posted online. You know I can do anything."
She couldn't hold back her tears after she finished speaking, "Chen Yu, can you give us another chance? I don't want to lose you."
In fact, Chen Yu rarely saw An He Nuan cry.
An He Nuan held Gu Chenyu's hand. "When I agreed to be your girlfriend, do you remember what you promised me on the rooftop? You said you would be with me forever, Chenyu. You can't go back on your word."
Chen Yu softened his heart.
Gu Wan didn't hear from Chen Yu for several days, but received a friend request from An He Nuan.
