Chapter 410 Inner torment of Qi Changfeng
After hearing her question, Qi Changfeng did not know how to answer Gu Yan. He said, “I am okay. When people in my company are busy with a new project, staying up late is common.”
“You should take care of yourself. Although you are busy with work, you should have a good rest. Health is the most important thing.” She said.
Qi Changfeng felt warm after hearing her words. After all, Gu Yan was the object of his attraction. It was the first time that she showed her care to him.
“I know.”
“Have a seat, please. I just get up and have not washed up while you knock the door.” For the first time, Gu Yan appeared like that in front of a man who was not her husband. Last time the one who came to her home to find her early in the morning when she just woke up was not Qi Changfeng, but Mo Yichen.
She looked uneasy and shy.
Aware of this, Qi Changfeng kindly told her to ignore him directly.
He was very anxious. He wanted to know the truth, but he didn’t know how to speak. What he could do was to sit on the sofa and wait for Gu Yan to wash up.
After Gu Yan came out of the bathroom, he felt that he could not wait any longer. He wanted to know whether the woman he liked was his friend’s girlfriend.
“How’s everything going?” He asked.
Gu Yan felt that something was wrong, but she still replied, “I’m fine.”
Qi Changfeng said, “I have known you for so long, but I don’t know where you are from.”
She didn’t know what he meant when he came to her home early in the morning and said a lot of inexplicable words, but she still answered his question, “I used to be in Lin’an City, but I move to Annan City later.”
“Then why do you move from Lin’an City to Annan City? It is much better than Annan City.”
“Good as it is, I don’t like this city. I think Annan City makes me feel more comfortable than Lin’an City.” Gu Yan turned around and said with her back to him.
She was a little sensitive when hearing his words. Since he came back from Mo Xiangyan’s birthday, he went to her and asked her these inexplicable questions.
When he heard Gu Yan used to live in Lin’an City, he became nervous. She lived in the same city with Mo Yichen. However, he thought that there were so many people in Lin’an City and Gu Yan was unlikely to be the one that Mo Yichen was looking for.
“And your parents?” He then kept asking. “I was brought up as a child bride, and both my parents are peasants.” Gu Yan answered. After hearing her words, he was more certain that she was the one Mo Yichen was looking for, while he comforted himself that even if she was a village girl, she might not be Mo Yichen’s girlfriend.
Then he came up with an idea and said, “I’ve heard recently that Mo Yichen celebrates his son Mo Xiangyan’s fifth birthday. His son is so cute. Haven’t you met him?”
Gu Yan shivered slightly when she heard Qi Changfeng said Xiangyan’s name. She had no idea how long she didn’t see him. She missed them so much and she didn’t know how Mo Yichen was doing, whether Mo Xiangyan behaved well, and what he looked like now...
After a while, she got her breath again, but looked depressed.
He looked at her for a long time and did not know what happened to her. “Gu Yan, what’s wrong with you?” He asked.
Hearing his question, she hid her depression and answered, “I’m fine. Although we live in the same city, I live in the bottom of the society and it is impossible for me to meet him. I never dare to imagine their living standard in my whole life. How could I know them?”
Although she said this, he still caught her subtle expression changes. After he saw her expression, he was sure that she was the one Mo Yichen and Mo Xiangyan mentioned and the one they were looking for all the time.
However, he did not know why she refused to admit her relationship with Mo Yichen. As an outsider, he didn’t know what happened between Gu Yan and Mo Yichen and why she would leave him and go to Annan City to put forth new life by her own efforts.
After knowing the truth, Qi Changfeng felt very gloomy. It was better not to know it. If so, he could pursue her continually without worries.
Although he had known roughly that she was the one Mo Yichen looked for, he was still a little sad when he knew the truth. After all, she was the first girl that he had a crush on.
She felt strange when he stopped speaking. He came to her house so early in the morning and asked her a lot of inexplicable questions, which made her a little puzzled.
He realized that she might dwell on his questions, so he said immediately, “Um... I just ask curiously. Never mind. After all, I should care about my employee. Don’t take it to heart.”
It was okay if he didn’t say it, but he did it, which made people feel that he protested his innocence too much.
She always felt that it was strange that he came to her today. No matter how much he cared about his employee, there was no need for him to get up early in the morning and run to his employee’s house. It was weird.
Qi Changfeng thought it was time to leave. He stood up and said after he got his answers, “It suddenly occurs to me that I have something to deal with today. I have to leave first, or I will be late.” He got up and prepared to leave.
This made Gu Yan strange, but she didn’t say anything. She stood up and sent him out.
After sending away Qi Changfeng, she entered her house and didn’t take his weird behavior seriously. She felt that it was his new method to pursue her.
After hearing his questions, she started to recall everything that happened before. She thought of all the previous moments with Mo Yichen.
Mo Yichen always protected her well so that she would not be hurt at all. If he was by her side, nobody would bully her. He knew every change of her mood. When she was not happy, he would make her happy. When there were delicious things, he would share with her immediately. He would take her to see the broad world.
She remembered that Mo Yichen was so nice to her before. He agreed with all her decisions and would like to do anything for her. She felt sweet but sad.
She thought of Mo Xiangyan again. She did not know what he was doing now and how he behaved every day. She didn’t know what he looked now. Was he looked more handsome and more like his father? Did he feel sad after she left?
She also wanted to go back to Mo Yichen, but his mother didn’t like her.
