The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 208: The Only One Who Haunts Her Heart Is Chi Yu
Tonight, Gu Yuan didn’t have much business to deal with, so she went to bed early with Sheng Yi.
There was a wall lamp on in the room. Sheng Yi was not sleepy at all, having tons of questions she wanted to ask Gu Yuan, but she didn’t know where to start.
"Yiyi." Gu Yuan called.
The way she called "Yiyi" was gentle as water, making Sheng Yi’s ears almost blossom: "Mmm~"
Gu Yuan said, "If there’s anything you want to ask, you can ask now."
Sheng Yi flipped over like a carp, then turned over and lay kneeling next to Gu Yuan, propping her chin and asking, "What happened between you and Chi Yu during this time?"
Gu Yuan told Sheng Yi some of the things that had happened recently. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
After learning about it, Sheng Yi was very moved: "So that’s how it is, but Chi Yu seems pretty normal, doesn’t look sick at all."
Chi Yu indeed looked no different from a normal person.
But sometimes, he would be abnormal, such as the other day in Hong Kong, his body was obviously very weak, which was not the physique a normal person should have.
"Since Chi Yu knows he’s sick, he didn’t tell you, and even used a cold way to force you to break up with him, making you resent him. Since he’s already done this, why does he still cling to you trying to win you back? I think there must be something wrong with his head." Sheng Yi spoke her mind directly.
This was actually something Gu Yuan had thought about as well.
Since they had broken up, why did Chi Yu still want to win her back?
And now, he’s distancing himself coldly from her.
The only explanation might be... he himself doesn’t know if his condition will improve, so he hovers between approaching and distancing from her.
"Will you get back together with Chi Yu?" This was the main point.
Gu Yuan clasped her hands and rested them under her cheek: "No."
"Yuanyuan, may I ask why?" Since Chi Yu is sick, this reason could explain why he acted like that, has Yuanyuan already stopped loving Chi Yu??
"If you truly love someone, there’s nothing you can’t say to each other and bear together. Chi Yu has already distanced himself from me by doing so, not to mention, he always believed that..."
"What?"
Gu Yuan’s voice was very light: "He thinks I’ve never put in any effort in this relationship."
"Then he’s quite a jerk," Sheng Yi said indignantly.
Sheng Yi used to look down on Chi Yu because he depended on Yuanyuan to reach his current success, he was after Yuanyuan’s money, not Yuanyuan herself.
Until witnessing Yuanyuan and Chi Yu come along together, Sheng Yi realized that although Chi Yu initially went after Yuanyuan’s money, his care and concern for Yuanyuan were unmatched by anyone.
...
Recently, Chi Yu’s home was piled with a lot of newspapers.
The newspapers were filled with reports about Gu Yuan and Lu Tinglou, and everyone was eagerly anticipating the good news from the Gu and Lu families.
Eventually, he couldn’t hold back, and on this day, he snuck outside Gu Mansion early in the morning, waiting all day until Gu Yuan returned with Lu Tinglou, sitting in the front passenger seat chatting and laughing together.
A single man and woman, in one room together...
Just the thought of it made Chi Yu’s heart feel like it was being torn open and filled with glass shards. Fortunately, Sheng Yi also came to the Gu Mansion, easing his torn heart.
But then thinking that Yuanyuan had already introduced Sheng Yi to Lu Tinglou, Chi Yu: "..."
Lu Tinglou stayed for the whole afternoon and didn’t leave until the evening.
When Chi Yu saw Lu Tinglou’s car driving out of the Gu Mansion, he stared intently, afraid of making a mistake, and felt slightly relieved seeing only Lu Tinglou driving inside.
At least Lu Tinglou didn’t stay overnight.
After waiting all day, it was already late, but Chi Yu hadn’t left yet.
Tu Kuan called twice reminding him to take his medicine, but Chi Yu ignored it; taking it or not, death loomed either way, so why endure that pain?
Uncle Xiang came out right on time.
Like last time, he carried a bag of cookies, knocking on the car window: "Mr. Chi."
Chi Yu directly opened the car door and got out. There was no rain tonight, and the sky was full of stars and a bright moon. Chi Yu wore a white shirt with a white T-shirt underneath, black trousers, accentuating his straight, slim figure.
Yet, somewhat frail.
Even Uncle Xiang noticed, "Mr. Chi looks much thinner."
Chi Yu: "It’s for filming, had to lose weight."
"These are cookies baked this afternoon." Uncle Xiang handed Chi Yu the bag of cookies.
Chi Yu took them, unable to hide his delight as he thanked him.
Uncle Xiang said, "You’re welcome. Miss Gu also participated in baking the cookies this afternoon."
Chi Yu’s excitement grew upon hearing this.
Yet, in less than three seconds, Uncle Xiang added, "And so did Mr. Lu."
Chi Yu: "..."
One moment in heaven, the next moment in hell.
Even though he knew he shouldn’t ask, Chi Yu still asked, "Does Yuanyuan...Gu Yuan get along well with him?"
Without hesitation, Uncle Xiang replied, "Quite well, Mr. Lu treats Miss Gu very well, very patient and meticulous."
Jealousy was enough to knock Chi Yu down.
He self-destructively asked again, "Are Gu Yuan and he really together?"
Uncle Xiang thought for a moment before saying, "Not clear yet, but it seems so; I heard Mr. Lu invite Miss Gu to dinner at the Lu Family’s house to meet his parents."
There was really nothing left to ask.
Chi Yu nodded: "That’s good."
Uncle Xiang also said, "That’s indeed good."
"Then I can be at ease." Chi Yu turned and opened the car door.
A voice came from behind him: "Mr. Chi, aren’t you going to ask how Miss Gu feels about Mr. Lu?"
Chi Yu froze, then shook his head: "No need."
He got into the car and closed the door.
Uncle Xiang stood outside the car door; he was the kind of elder who saw things more clearly.
"Mr. Chi’s car has been parked here all day, from morning till night," Uncle Xiang said, looking inside the car, "I could see it, only I could see it, and I didn’t tell Miss Gu that you were here."
Chi Yu tugged at the corners of his lips: "Thank you, Uncle Xiang."
"You’re welcome." Uncle Xiang smiled kindly, waving at Chi Yu: "Drive slowly on the road, be safe."
Whenever Chi Yu visited the Gu Mansion, Uncle Xiang would remind him with these words.
After Uncle Xiang left, Chi Yu opened the bag of cookies, tasting one, then another until his mouth was too full, finally stopping that mechanical action.
In the end, most of those cookies fell to the ground.
He opened the car door and got out, squatting by the roadside retching.
A folded square paper was handed over, Chi Yu instinctively took it, looking up to see Uncle Xiang bending down kindly, handing him the paper.
Chi Yu stood up: "You haven’t gone back yet."
Uncle Xiang smiled, "Because I know Mr. Chi still has something else left unasked."
Chi Yu shook his head: "No more."
"Alright then, I’ll go inside." Uncle Xiang raised his hand, patting Chi Yu’s arm before turning to leave.
Watching the old man’s retreating figure, Chi Yu called out: "Uncle Xiang."
"Yes?" Uncle Xiang turned around again, looking at Chi Yu, "Mr. Chi, what do you have to say?"
Chi Yu asked in a dry, hoarse...almost choking voice, "Will Yuanyuan marry him?"
Uncle Xiang smiled, shaking his head, and responded to Chi Yu, "No."
Chi Yu was stunned.
Uncle Xiang said, "Because the only person Miss Gu is deeply concerned about is Mr. Chi."
