Mr. Gu's heart loves her since ancient times

Chapter 44
Qiao Yunshu took the initiative to say hello, and Shen Che remained silent. The surrounding air gradually solidified, and the atmosphere in the cramped space was even more awkward than in the conference room.

She swallowed, her eyes turned left and right, her eyes wandering, and after a long while, she maintained an awkward smile:
"I haven't seen you for so many years. I didn't expect you to have become the executive officer of the Shen family, and...

congratulations……"

Qiao Yunshu lowered her long eyelashes to hide the emotions in her eyes. She really couldn't say such contrary words as congratulations on your marriage and congratulations on having a baby in front of him.

Waves of weakness in my heart, accompanied by a trace of sadness, diluted the throbbing uneasiness of today's reunion.

The hand under the faucet paused, and the cold water splashed on Shen Che's fingertips. He suddenly raised his head, his eyes collided with hers in the mirror, and his Adam's apple rolled, but he made no sound.

Qiao Yunshu had averted her eyes when he looked over. The man in front of her was no longer the shy big boy before.

He now had a fierce frankness about him that made her want to take a step back and huddle in a corner, but her heart couldn't help but tremble.

The past memories reappeared in her mind, and his kindness to her was in sharp contrast to his current attitude.

Qiao Yunshu's heart felt like it had rolled into a thorn bush. No matter how she adjusted her position, she would feel a dull pain from being pricked.

"Since you're doing well, I'm relieved."

"You probably don't remember what happened in the past. You should cherish your current family. In the future, we will..."

After a pause, Qiao Yunshu's eyes turned red, she mustered up the courage to raise her eyes and looked over, forcing a forced smile on her lips.

"...We can still be friends."

Shen Che looked at the chic smile on the corner of the woman's mouth and the jade hand that extended to him, which represented friendship, and his heart froze.

The next second, he turned off the faucet, took out a piece of paper, wiped it, and threw it into the trash can.

He took out the pink mobile phone from his arms and placed it on her palm. His voice could not tell the difference between happiness and anger:
"Miss Qiao, you are worrying too much."

After saying that, he turned around and left without any delay.

Miss Qiao is worrying too much...

This was the first thing he said to her after their reunion, distant and cold.

Qiao Yunshu froze on the spot, her slender fingers clenched unconsciously, and her mind kept recalling scenes from the old days.

He fell ill in the rain because of her, ran all over the streets and alleys of the city because of her just one word, took the blame for her, looked at him with tender eyes...

A dense pain arose at the tip of her heart, and the next second, she rushed after him.

The high heels made a hurried sound in the corridor. Shen Che's fingers hanging down by his legs moved, and his steps slowed down unconsciously, but they still did not stop.

Until a delicate but stubborn force came from his wrist, pulling him into the fire escape next to him, and the man's back hit the wall with a bang.

The sensor light came on, and Shen Che lowered his head and met the eyes that he thought about day and night. There were tears in her eyes that could not be shed, and there was a hint of unwillingness and grievance in her eyes.

"Why are you so weird? Yes, I was sorry for you before...I didn't see your intentions, but I have already received retribution..."

The more Qiao Yunshu spoke, the more she collapsed. The tears in her eyes finally couldn't help but roll down. She gradually dropped her arms weakly and staggered back a few steps. Her voice was choked with sobs and sounded like a broken bellows:
"That night, after you left, I felt guilty every day and couldn't sleep all night long.
Until I see you again and see that you are living a good life, with a reputation, a family, and a son...

From now on, we will each be at peace..."

"I have no son."

The man's cold voice interrupted her.

Shen Che came closer to her little by little, slowly raised his fingertips, and pinched her chin.

The sensor light went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness. She could not see anything, she could only hear his breathing approaching, and he stopped very close to the tip of her nose.

"Qiao Yunshu, you are always like this..."

All kinds of excuses can be found to deal with him.The man's slender and strong fingertips touched her cheek and wiped away the tears flowing on it. His eyes were obviously the same as before, but there was a sense of distance in his eyes for no reason.

"Such tears again..."

She can make him defeated in an instant, lift people to the clouds and give them hope, and then trample them into the mud to realize that they are nothing to her...

It turns out that even now, she still only feels guilty towards him...

Shen Che endured the excruciating pain and turned around, stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the fire door, and turned his face slightly.

The sensor light came on again, and his calm and hoarse voice came from the silent corridor:

"Thank you for showing up today. It's time for me to move forward."

The iron door slammed shut, and silence returned to the corridor.

Qiao Yunshu slumped down along the wall, inserted her hands into her hair and pulled her scalp masochistically. The pain made her think gradually clearer, and she suddenly captured what he said.

What do you mean...he doesn't have a son?

In the hotel suite, when she heard the electronic door ring, Chu Yin jumped out of bed and trotted forward to greet her. However, she saw Gu Yan rubbing his brows irritably, taking off his clothes as he walked, and throwing them on the ground.

Just as Chu Yin was about to pick up the clothes on the floor, Gu Yan held his hand. He leaned on the sofa, his temples twitching, and his voice was muffled:
"Don't worry about the clothes, hurry up and press them for me."

Hearing this, Chu Yin obediently climbed onto the sofa, sunk his legs into the sofa cushions, rubbed the acupuncture points on his head, and smoothed away the depression in his chest little by little with his other little hand.

After a long while, seeing Gu Yan let out a long sigh of relief, she whispered into his ear and coaxed:

"...Let's go take a shower?"

Gu Yan nodded and entered the bathroom.

Seeing that he was in an unhappy mood, he must have been under too much work pressure. Chu Yin thought for a while, turned on the DVD player, and without reading the introduction, he randomly selected a disc with two short hair on the cover and stuffed it in.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Just as she was about to pack up the clothes he had taken off on the floor outside, a message suddenly came in from her phone.

Miss Qiao is looking for her...

Before going out, Chu Yin suddenly recalled the rush they had to check in. They only had one room card. If she took it away, Lang Jun's place would be cut off from electricity and water.

So, she randomly found an apple from the coffee table and placed it against the crack of the door. Thinking that she would be back soon, she went out.

By coincidence, Gu's mother, who had just gotten off the plane and rushed to the hotel, found her based on the room number.

Seeing that the door was open, she frowned. As soon as she entered, she found her son's clothes and pants on the ground.

The clothes were scattered on the floor in the direction of the bedroom, messily tangled together, and Mother Gu's heart felt cold when she looked at them.

Then, she tiptoed to the bedroom door, put her ear to it, and heard an indescribable sound coming from inside.

Mother Gu's eyes widened, all the blood in her body rushed to her brain, and her eyesight turned black.

She covered her mouth suddenly, her body swayed, and tears fell down.

At this time, her phone vibrated. She wiped her face with the back of her hand and walked out. Before leaving, she closed the door.

When I came to the corridor, I slid open the screen.Father Gu's voice came over the radio:
"Honey, are you here yet?"

Mother Gu's eyes were empty. After a long time, she gradually started to cry:

"Jianguo...wuwuwu...our Gu family has no descendants..."
