Chapter 428 Unwavering Willpower
Gu Shuyan said she wouldn't look after the child anymore and turned to leave the villa.
At the Yun residence, Yun Yichen frowned involuntarily as he listened to the man in black's words. "Is that really what Madam said?"
Nowadays, Yun Yichen's subordinates all address Gu Shuyan as "Madam," so even Yun Yichen himself unconsciously uses the word "Madam" when speaking to his servants.
The man in black nodded upon hearing this, not daring to say anything more.
"You can go now!" Yun Yichen waved for him to leave, then turned and sat down on the stool.
"Master, you don't suspect that Madam had a child before, do you?"
Looking at Yun Yichen's expression, Zhong Lin couldn't help but make guesses. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he was glared at fiercely by Yun Yichen.
"Can't you use your brain?"
When Gu Shuyan came back, she looked like a withered, skinny monkey. How could someone like her have a child?
But what was the deeper meaning behind Gu Shuyan's words? The hatred of her family's massacre, the hatred of her son's murder? What exactly had Shuer gone through? And what about Gu Rui's child? And what Shuer had said about Gu Rui being just as important to her?
Yun Yichen felt as if he was about to grasp something, but it also seemed like he hadn't grasped anything at all. This feeling was driving him crazy.
"Has Madam returned to the manor?"
Yun Yichen suddenly looked at Zhong Lin. Zhong Lin was taken aback at first, then nodded, "Yes, Master."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yichen remained silent, stood up, and walked out.
As it was getting late, Yun Yichen once again resorted to his old method of climbing over the wall. Fortunately, he was already very familiar with the route, so it didn't take him much effort.
When they arrived at the North Courtyard, Gu Shuyan had already taken a shower and was lying down. When she saw Yun Yichen enter, Mingyu and the others tactfully withdrew.
Gu Shuyan was overjoyed to have finally gotten half of her revenge today. Even while lying in bed, she couldn't help but hum a little tune, which surprised Yun Yichen.
I've seen Gu Shuyan in all sorts of states before, but this seems to be the first time I've seen her so happy. It looks like Shuer is genuinely happy after dealing with the Li family.
"Brother Yun, why are you standing there if you're not coming over?"
Gu Shuyan didn't even look up, she just continued humming her little tune.
Yun Yichen didn't expect the little girl to be so perceptive, actually knowing of his presence. So he stopped hiding and strode into the inner room.
"Shushu seems to be in a good mood?"
As he spoke, Yun Yichen walked to Gu Shuyan's bedside and sat down next to her.
"That's natural. From today onwards, many things can be put aside."
Gu Shuyan had nothing to hide from Yun Yichen, and besides, Yun Yichen would know even if she didn't say it, so it was better for her to tell him, which would make Yun Yichen feel better.
As Yun Yichen listened to Gu Shuyan's words, the question in his mind almost slipped out, but at that moment, Gu Shuyan grabbed his hand, stood up, and threw herself into his arms.
"Brother Yun".
A soft murmur rang in his ear, like a gentle breeze, causing Yun Yichen to suddenly freeze.
Having just taken a shower, Gu Shuyan was only wearing an undergarment. When she hugged him and pressed her soft body against Yun Yichen's chest, Yun Yichen's mind went blank for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
Yun Yichen's voice deepened, Gu Shuyan's hair draped over her shoulders, a delicate fragrance wafting over, and Yun Yichen's ears involuntarily turned red.
"It's nothing, just thank you. Things wouldn't have gone so smoothly today without your help."
Gu Shuyan alone could not possibly have brought the child out of the palace. In the end, it was all thanks to Yun Yichen's people, who were naturally very deep-rooted agents.
As Gu Shuyan spoke, she rubbed against Yun Yichen, making Yun Yichen's already stiff body even stiffer.
After all, he was a man in his twenties, full of vigor and passion. Did she know what the consequences of her actions would be?
As if sensing Yun Yichen's stiffness, Gu Shuyan couldn't help but look up at him. Seeing his slightly reddened ears as he turned his face away, a sly glint flashed in Gu Shuyan's eyes.
I never expected the Grand Secretary to be shy. If I don't tease him, I'll miss a great opportunity.
Gu Shuyan, with a mischievous grin, rubbed against him again, asking, "Brother Yun, why don't you hug me?"
Gu Shuyan pouted with a hint of dissatisfaction, her hand unconsciously circling Yun Yichen's chest. Yun Yichen was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to answer or not. Coupled with her restless little hand, Yun Yichen grabbed her hand and held it in his palm.
"Shushu, stop fooling around."
Yun Yichen's deep eyes hardened with a hint of passion as he stared intently at Gu Shuyan. Gu Shuyan was immediately startled by his gaze.
"Brother Yun, it's getting late, you should go back now!"
As Gu Shuyan spoke, she sat up straight and then reached out to pull her hand away from Yun Yichen's grasp.
However, Yun Yichen gripped her hand tightly, and Gu Shuyan, unable to break free, fell into Yun Yichen's arms again.
"Brother Yun".
Gu Shuyan was getting anxious and tried to sit up again, but the next second Yun Yichen reached out and lifted her chin, and then his crimson lips pressed against his own.
A sudden kiss made Gu Shuyan pause for a moment, and she let Yun Yichen slowly deepen the kiss.
With mutual affection, it was impossible for the two not to fall in love. A kiss deepened their feelings for each other, until they were both breathless, at which point Yun Yichen finally released Gu Shuyan.
"I have to go now."
Yun Yichen dared not stay any longer. Smelling the unique fragrance on Gu Shuyan's body, his heart was already restless. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to resist swallowing the little girl whole.
"Um."
Gu Shuyan was not a naive girl who had never experienced love, so she naturally noticed Yun Yichen's change. If things continued like this, Gu Shuyan was worried that the two of them might do something outrageous, so she nodded and agreed with Yun Yichen's words.
"I'll come see you again another day."
Yun Yichen naturally didn't miss Gu Shuyan's shyly lowered head. Seeing her like this, he really wanted to hug her and kiss her face again, but reason prevailed over impulse. So after saying this, Yun Yichen quickly left the house.
He walked very fast; anyone who didn't know better would think he was being chased.
After Yun Yichen left the room, Gu Shuyan patted her burning face and said, "Thank goodness, I can't tease Brother Yun anymore."
If it weren't for Yun Yichen's strong will and his timely intervention, things would have really gone wrong.
"Master, you're back?"
As soon as Zhong Lin saw his master enter the room, he greeted him with a big smile.
