◇ Chapter 39
"Gu'an..."
Chu Jiangyuan looked at Si Gu'an, the sorrow in his eyes was so intense that it seemed unfathomable.
Si Gu'an still didn't speak.
Chu Jiangyuan swallowed the bitter taste in his throat and said, "Gu'an, starting today, I won't force you to do anything..."
Even if it is love, he will only hide it in his heart. He will withdraw from his world and become a passerby with only a name.
"But, can we be friends from now on?"
He lowered his self-esteem to the dust, but Si Gu'an still had doubts. He shook his head and said, "We are just strangers who are relatively familiar with each other."
Chu Jiangyuan smiled bitterly. It was not his fault that he did not believe it. He deserved it.
He responded softly, "Okay."
Si Gu'an nodded and left. Chu Jiangyuan looked at his back and returned home when he knew he could no longer see him. Now the only comfort he had was Si Gu'an's old diary.
It was filled with his love for him, and now he could only rely on it to get through one difficult night after another.
Si Gu'an didn't believe Chu Jiangyuan's words at first. For the next month, he didn't come near him. Occasionally, when raindrops fell at the door, he just nodded.
Even He Yilan was released from the ban by his father, and his father was willing to let He Yilan continue the previous project. Chu Jiangyuan no longer put pressure on the He family.
However, He Yilan did not work for the He family's company. During this period of time, he lived with Si Gu'an and was indeed working for Si Gu'an.
The previous project was cut short, and Si Gu'an deeply realized the importance of the right to speak. In addition to the large amount of compensation from the He family, his company was not short of working capital, so he hired He Yilan and restarted the previous project.
It was He's mother who came to visit and advised He Yilan not to go against his father. He's mother was a very gentle person. When she accidentally saw He Yilan coaxing Xiao An to call him dad, she understood what He Yilan was thinking.
From then on, she came to the house from time to time and often talked to Si Gu'an.
"Xiao Wang, please don't believe those rumors from the outside world."
Si Gu'an smiled awkwardly.
"Xiao Wang, I can't say how successful Yilan will be in the future, but I guarantee that he will be a good man."
Si Gu'an: ...
"Xiao Wang, I like Xiao An very much. I like her calling me grandma. It would be even better if she calls Yi Lan dad someday."
Si Gu'an: ???
Auntie, do you have any misunderstanding about the relationship between me and He Yilan?
Fortunately, He Yilan was worried that He's mother's anxiety had frightened Si Gu'an, so he persuaded He's mother not to talk nonsense.
The noise from He's mother's side naturally reached Chu Jiangyuan's ears. He was so upset that he couldn't sleep at night, but he still kept his promise and didn't disturb Si Gu'an.
Without Chu Jiangyuan's concerns, Si Gu'an often took Xiao An to the orphanage for a short visit. He often took the children to draw together to cheer them up.
That day, he came to the orphanage in the afternoon, only to see a group of children crying in panic.
"What's wrong?" Si Gu'an asked, and someone immediately answered: "Uncle Si, please go and save Brother Yunsheng. He's being stopped and bullied by bad guys."
Si Gu'an's face instantly turned cold. Yunsheng was a fifteen-year-old child in an orphanage. He was very beautiful, but he couldn't speak. If he was bullied, he couldn't even shout for help!
Si Gu'an hurriedly drove to where Yunsheng worked. As soon as he entered the coffee shop, he saw Yunsheng shivering in the corner.
A young man sat on a chair and said arrogantly, "You are so lucky that I fell in love with you. If you know what's good for you, just follow me. Otherwise, I will torture you to death!"
"Let's see who dares!"
