The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 249: Waiting for Chi Yu’s Return_2

When Wen Fei said these words, she did so without thinking.

They slipped out without her brain processing them.

In fact, she did not intend to further hurt Gu Yuan, yet these words just uncontrollably spilled out of her mouth. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Gu Yuan’s hands, which had been tightly clenched, seemed to relax at Wen Fei’s last words, and she uttered a sudden laugh of realization: "I finally understand..."

Wen Fei was puzzled: "Understand what?"

Gu Yuan repeated the phrase: "I finally understand."

Wen Fei, having just learned about the matter, wanted an explanation from Gu Yuan, but Gu Yuan couldn’t fully explain. She had simply had a dream, and the images in the dream did not represent her entire memory.

But what she could be sure of was that she had been to a parallel world.

In the parallel world, she met Chi Yu and embarked on a brand-new life.

Parallel worlds can have many interpretations. When you look in the mirror and discover another face that belongs to you but doesn’t, perhaps that too is a parallel world.

Or perhaps, it’s an imaginary other time-space.

Gu Yuan tried hard to remember.

But she had long forgotten that memory completely, no matter how hard she tried to recall, it was always a blank. She knew nothing about having stayed in a parallel world until she saw that dream, a dream full of regret and repression...

Everything she learned from Gu Yuan, Wen Fei found absurd, but the truth told her that only she and Gu Yuan knew the fact of Chi Yu’s existence, making it impossible for Wen Fei to refute.

"So that’s the main reason you made amends with me tonight, right?" Wen Fei asked, knowing the answer already for once.

Gu Yuan revealed a light smile: "Yes, Ms. Wen."

Wen Fei felt an indescribable subtlety, somewhat angry, but she knew she shouldn’t be angry about this matter. Rather, she should have been angry and scolded when Gu Yuan defied her and had conflicts with her.

"Even if I know, so what? This person is gone, he’s just gone. He won’t exist again in the future. It’s better if you pull yourself together and embrace a new relationship. There’s nothing to be sad about." Heartless words slipped out.

After saying this, Wen Fei was about to go upstairs.

From behind came Gu Yuan’s ethereal voice: "I seem to understand why Dad loved you so much."

Wen Fei paused her step, not comprehending Gu Yuan’s words nor wanting to ask.

Especially when it came to matters about Gu Yuesheng, Wen Fei refused to respond altogether.

After Wen Fei left, Gu Yuan fell into a prolonged silence.

When she said she seemed to understand why Dad loved Mom so much, loved her to the point of not regretting it even unto death, she didn’t say it to fool Wen Fei. After experiencing matters with Chi Yu and going through that dream, many things seemed to have answers.

It’s just that the answer requires slow verification.

The next morning.

Gu Yuan personally took Wen Fei to the airport, and she also brought luggage.

All the way, Wen Fei didn’t ask where Gu Yuan was going until they reached the airport. Seeing Gu Yuan going in with her, Wen Fei couldn’t help but ask: "Are you going to Sydney too?"

"You’re overthinking it, why would I go to Sydney." Gu Yuan handed the boarding pass to Wen Fei: "Safe travels."

Wen Fei took the boarding pass: "Then where are you going?"

Gu Yuan smiled lightly, her voice gentle: "I’m going to trace the footsteps of my love."

Wen Fei also smiled: "Unless it’s an air crash, only then might you go to another intangible time-space. Otherwise, where do you look for him? There’s simply no trace of him in this world."

"It’s okay, as long as I remember him, that’s enough," said Gu Yuan before taking her suitcase and walking in a different direction.

Wen Fei stood in place, watching Gu Yuan’s departing figure. She had always been the most carefree, whether in the past or present, without the need for anyone’s reminder. Perhaps now, getting older, just a safe travels from Gu Yuan could make her feel content for a long time.

Gu Yuan boarded the flight to Yanjing.

She sent a courtesy letter to the Quan Family a day in advance, and after receiving Old Madam Quan’s reply, she went to visit.

The Quan Family in Yanjing is a prominent family, everyone in this family is a dragon or a phoenix among people.

Gu Yuan’s visit was not ostentatious; the only person she wanted to see was Yu Rujin. Unexpectedly, Yu Rujin personally received her, which surprised Gu Yuan.

She thought Yu Rujin’s kindness towards her before was due to Chi Yu; now without Chi Yu, Yu Rujin remained just as kind.

The whole afternoon passed, and Yu Rujin never asked why Gu Yuan was visiting.

It wasn’t until after dinner, when Gu Yuan was about to leave, that she asked Yu Rujin: "Madam, why haven’t you asked me why I came today?"

"Miss Gu must have a reason for visiting, but since Miss Gu hasn’t mentioned it, I won’t ask," replied Yu Rujin, smiling gently.

Gu Yuan lowered her eyes slightly and softly said, "You are a good grandmother."

Yu Rujin smiled and asked, "Which grandson does Miss Gu mean?"

The person who temporarily doesn’t exist, Gu Yuan wouldn’t say it and scare the elder.

She only said, "Madam, in the future I will frequently come to see you."

"I hope Miss Gu’s words aren’t just to make an old lady happy."

"Madam..."

"You can also call me Grandma," Yu Rujin said.

It was not the first time Yu Rujin met Gu Yuan; the last time was at the extremely sensational jade auction.

But it had been a few years.

In Yu Rujin’s impression, Gu Yuan is a smart and decisive young female entrepreneur; she had a good impression of Gu Yuan, feeling a sense of familiarity upon seeing her. Receiving the courtesy letter, she was surprised, but she would never refuse when Gu Yuan came to see her personally.

Those words just slipped out, assuming Gu Yuan wouldn’t address her that way.

"Grandma."

Gu Yuan addressed her.

Hearing the word grandma from Gu Yuan, Yu Rujin couldn’t quite pinpoint her emotions, but she reached out to take Gu Yuan’s hand and responded, "Eh."

Yu Rujin said, "I’m getting old and don’t go out much, you must come often."

Gu Yuan said, "I will."

She would definitely come again.

If Chi Yu were ever to return, he would certainly still be at the Quan Family. Again and again, from now on, she would come every year, this time hoping to meet him earlier.
