Can We Say No to Divorce?-Chapter 607 - 371: Everyone Has Their Own Thoughts

The family of three sat at the table, with Ji Su having prepared a variety of light, home-cooked dishes. Seeing that Gu Yucheng also ate very little, she thought he was worried about Lu Xiao.

This meal was filled with unspoken thoughts.

In the afternoon, Ji Su left, "I’m leaving first!"

Gu Yucheng nodded, naturally assuming that she was going to go on a date with He Chenxiang.

Ji Su returned to the radio station to prepare for the evening’s program. Her own health had just recovered when Gu Yaowan caught a cold, which she then contracted as well.

During the evening broadcast, her nose was runny and her voice a bit hoarse. Her colleagues even joked that such a voice lent an extra touch of melancholy to the program, which the listeners would surely like even more.

As soon as the evening program went on air, He Chenxiang’s call came through. Ji Su had taken some over-the-counter cold medicine and was drowsily asleep. Without checking who it was, she answered the call.

"Ji Su, you’ve caught a cold!" He Chenxiang had been listening attentively to her program; he could easily pick up on the slightest change in her voice.

Ji Su murmured, half-asleep: "I’m fine..."

He Chenxiang was naturally concerned. After asking about her symptoms, he immediately drove over to her place with medicine.

Ji Su opened the door for him, and He Chenxiang examined her again, then prepared some medication for her, "You’re lucky, no fever, just the common cold. You’re weak right now, take your medicine quickly."

"Thank you for making the trip here," Ji Su said, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

How could He Chenxiang not worry when she was sick? "It’s nothing. I am a doctor, don’t worry. You’ll recover from the cold quickly. Remember to drink plenty of water!"

"I’m going to finish this whole cup right now!" Ji Su held up a large cup of boiled water.

He Chenxiang watched her, a faint smile on his face. In the night, the shadows of the two seated figures were reflected in the window.

...

Gu Mansion.

After all, Gu Yaowan was just a child. As soon as she felt a bit better, she became restless. She climbed onto Gu Yucheng’s lap, "Daddy, can we go find mommy, please?"

"Sure!" Gu Yucheng said, taking her small hand and leading her to the car.

Gu Yaowan wanted to sit in the front, but Gu Yucheng said, "The new ’Traffic Law’ states that children under the age of twelve cannot sit in the passenger seat. Wanwan must follow the traffic rules; sit in the back and buckle your seatbelt."

"Yes, I almost forgot because of the cold," said Gu Yaowan. "Also, babies under four years old must have a child safety seat in the car. Daddy, when your brother and sister-in-law have their child, they’ll need to use a child safety seat. When will you and mommy give me a little brother?"

Gu Yucheng was momentarily taken aback, then said, "Your uncle’s child will also be your little brother!"

"Xiaoyu said it’s a little sister!" Gu Yaowan insisted seriously. "I want a brother! A brother born from you and mommy!"

Gu Yucheng playfully tugged at her pigtails, "Then make a wish on your birthday! And, mommy’s health isn’t good, so having a little brother is quite difficult!"

The father and daughter duo headed towards Ji Su’s place. Upon parking the car, Gu Yucheng looked up and saw two adult heads outlined against Ji Su’s window.

There was a man and a woman; and not far in front, He Chenxiang’s car was parked.

In that instant, Gu Yucheng’s heart felt like it had plummeted into the abyss. Had she pre-recorded the program at the radio station just to spend the evening with He Chenxiang?

Suddenly, Gu Yucheng felt like bringing Gu Yaowan over tonight was just slapping his own face!

He started the car and quickly disappeared into the night.

...

The night grew late, and He Chenxiang finally drove off. Ji Su curled up alone on the sofa; she hadn’t asked about Gu Yaowan’s well-being that evening. The child must be asleep by now, right?

She wanted to call Gu Yucheng but was concerned he might be with Lu Xiao. Could such a call lead to misunderstandings?

She understood that in a family’s breakdown, it is the child who suffers the most!

Was six-year-old Gu Yaowan aware of the adult world at all?

Ji Su let out a low sigh, then closed her eyes. I’m sorry, Wanwan!

Early the next morning, she took a car to the Gu Mansion. Gu Yaowan was still not awake when she arrived. As she was about to go upstairs, she saw Gu Yucheng opening the door to the bedroom.

"I came to check on Wanwan..." Ji Su saw that he was not wearing a shirt, and he only had a pair of shorts around his waist; she unconsciously averted her eyes.

Gu Yucheng, however, looked at her with a mocking gaze. She and He Chenxiang had already reached the point of staying overnight; why pretend to be pure in front of him?
