Chapter 325: How Did It Come to This...

He said that two days was already within the scope he could accept for not going together.

With that, his eyes opened.

His deep eyes were pitch black, initially dazed for a few seconds, then realized what Gu Yuan had just said.

He looked up at her: "Where’s the business trip?"

Gu Yuan: "Haojiang."

The next second, he immediately sat up, the thin blanket slipped off him, revealing the light red marks on his chest, making Gu Yuan avert her gaze.

He was about to get off the bed.

Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow: "What are you doing?"

Chi Yu put on his shoes: "Going with you, accompanying you on your business trip."

"I’m going on a business trip, why are you coming?" Gu Yuan was helpless, just as she expected.

Chi Yu suddenly looked at her and said two words: "You, of course."

Gu Yuan didn’t get it: "Me?"

Chi Yu: "You asked why I’m going."

Gu Yuan: "..."

She reached out and pushed him back onto the bed, standing beside it, she said, "I’m just going on a business trip, I’ll be back in two days, it’s not that long."

"Two days is 48 hours, 48 hours is 2880 minutes, and 2880 minutes is 172,800 seconds, Yuanyuan, we will have 172,800 seconds where we can’t see each other, can you bear to leave me for so long?"

"..."

This logic, she was speechless.

He quickly got up again, ready to get dressed, but ended up completely naked in front of Gu Yuan, who turned her head away, and he was about to tease: "Last night was even more—"

"Shut your mouth."

"Oh."

Chi Yu went to get dressed, but he was very tired, yawning several times in succession.

Gu Yuan walked over and hugged him, Chi Yu stood still, she said, "Have a good rest, I can’t bear to see you so tired accompanying me running around, I want to finish my recent tasks so I can focus on preparing for our wedding together."

These words moved Chi Yu.

He really liked her hugging him like this.

This action represented that she relied on him a lot.

"Then come back early." After a pause, he said again, "Counting from today, I’ll pick you up tomorrow night?"

"My schedule isn’t certain, after the meeting it might be very late, or I might only be able to return the morning after tomorrow, can you wait at home for me?"

He listened to her, not being too unreasonable: "Okay."

Then Chi Yu realized that Gu Yuan’s luggage was already prepared.

To not let him realize she was going far, Gu Yuan packed lightly, with only two sets of clothes.

At this point in time, the sky was already faintly bright.

Old Bai’s car was parked at the entrance, waiting.

Chi Yu dragged the luggage down the stairs, opened the trunk, and put the luggage inside. Gu Yuan came out wearing a hat, with high heels on her feet, and Chi Yu looked at her ultra-high heels and said, "Aren’t you taking a cruise? It’s inconvenient to wear high heels."

Gu Yuan: "I’ll change on the car later."

He said nothing more, watching her get into the car.

For him, two days stretched into 172,800 seconds, seemed like such a long time, and at this moment, he appeared as a little wife left behind, reminding her: "You should come back early."

"Mm."

Gu Yuan deceived him, nodding with a guilty conscience.

A minute after the car drove away, Chi Yu started missing her, it was really hard, what would he do in the future, he must always be with Yuanyuan.

That morning, Gu Yuan boarded a flight to Sydney.

Chi Yu didn’t know Gu Yuan went to Sydney, foolishly waiting for her to come back home.

He was worried about calling or texting her during the day, fearing it would disturb her work, so he restrained his longing until the evening to call her.

...

The night in Sydney is beautiful.

At Lover’s Harbour, the fireworks light up the night, and under the night sky of Circular Quay, it’s full of charm.

On the open-air balcony, here you can overlook the Opera House.

Sitting opposite Gu Yuan was Wen Fei.

Last year on Gu Yuesheng’s death anniversary, Wen Fei didn’t come back, and Gu Yuan didn’t force her to, today Gu Yuesheng’s anniversary hasn’t arrived yet, counting it, it’s been almost two years since Gu Yuan last saw Wen Fei.

Wen Fei had lost a lot of weight.

If it weren’t for her makeup, she would probably look haggard.

The two sat in silence for a long time, Wen Fei was not as sharp-tongued as before in front of Gu Yuan, just a few words were exchanged.

At this moment, Gu Yuan’s WeChat video call alert sounded.

Needless to say, it was from Chi Yu.

Wen Fei looked a bit tired: "If you’re hesitant because of me, then go outside to answer."

Gu Yuan hung up Chi Yu’s WeChat video call and replied: [Busy now, might be late when I finish, get some rest early.]

’Buzz-’

She had just sent the message a few seconds ago.

He immediately replied: [I miss you.]

He seemingly felt one message wasn’t enough and sent another: [Yuanyuan, I miss you.]

Looking at Chi Yu’s WeChat, expressing his longing urgently, Gu Yuan stared at the screen, and as she watched, she smiled.

Wen Fei noticed her smile: "You look really happy."

Gu Yuan put away her phone and returned to her previous indifferent expression: "My happiness comes from those who love me."

These words seemed to have another meaning.

——Those who don’t love me can’t give me happiness.

Gu Yuan never received motherly love from Wen Fei growing up.

"Even if it’s happiness, it’s temporary, isn’t it?" Wen Fei’s words carried a hint of mockery.

Gu Yuan had long become immune to her negative attitude, just puzzled by what had happened to her in these two years to end up like this.

Looking at the middle-aged woman across who was not as exquisitely presented as before, her face looking older, she said: "Ms. Wen is someone who values image and appearance greatly, always presenting a noble and refined side wherever she goes. After the cruise incident, these three years I’ve given you an endless amount of money, yet instead of living a lavish and extravagant life, you’ve made yourself so miserable. I’m curious about what happened to you?"

Wen Fei didn’t tidy her disheveled self because of Gu Yuan’s words, simply asked: "Do you really want to know what happened?"

Gu Yuan slowly inhaled, calming her emotions, and said, "If you want to say it, you will. Instead of repeatedly asking if I want to know."

"Silly daughter." Wen Fei sighed softly.

Gu Yuan’s face gradually turned cold.

During her time in Sydney, Gu Yuan learned about some things regarding parallel worlds from Wen Fei.

But Gu Yuan didn’t learn much from Wen Fei, as she never intended to tell her a lot.

She discovered that there was a mysterious laboratory in Sydney, and people from parallel worlds would certainly emerge from this lab.

The existence of the lab solved a long-standing confusion for Gu Yuan.

The year she went to the parallel world, it was because Wen Fei had promised to return for the anniversary, only to change her mind, so Gu Yuan, in a fit of anger, went to Sydney, intending to forcibly bring Wen Fei back.

"The permanent separation you mentioned, does it mean making Chi Yu return forever, never to be by my side again, right?" Gu Yuan believed she had already guessed it.

Wen Fei smiled and said: "If he goes back, everything you have will be lost, are you willing?"

No, I’m not willing.

But what else can you do?

Continual torment is less desirable than one swift cut, isn’t that the meaning of "cut the knot sharply"?

When she’s seventy or eighty, still undergoing such torment, life seems to lose its meaning.

The woman opposite, Wen Fei, said, "You have to endure things more painful than separation, in five days, bring him to Sydney and finish what you started."
