Chapter 411 Restored a peaceful life
Chen Qian kept obstructing Gu Yan in every possible way. Gu Yan was considerate. She didn’t want to cause any trouble for Mo Yichen because of her presence.
She could only choose this way. Although she was very painful, there was no other option. She hoped that Mo Yichen and Mo Xiangyan would not blame her, and Mo Yichen would have less trouble after her departure.
Realizing that her mind floated a bit far away, Gu Yan quickly recovered herself. She could only keep herself busy to prevent herself from missing them.
Gu Yan didn’t know how to deal with Qi Changfeng’s affection. That man was always very kind to her and protected her from any danger. Although Gu Yan wanted such a person to appear when she needed him, her heart was already occupied by Mo Yichen and couldn’t hold anyone else.
But she didn’t know how to turn Qi Changfeng down. After all, he was so nice to her that she didn’t want to hurt him. However, she couldn’t love Qi Changfeng neither.
She knew that Qi Changfeng was really excellent, and there might be a lot of girls who loved him. But she just couldn’t understand why Qi Changfeng fell in love with her.
Gu Yan picked up the cup in front of her quickly and took a sip of water to calm down. She told herself that she could only love Mo Yichen, nobody else. She only belonged to Mo Yichen.
Gu Yan gathered her wits quickly, finished morning preparations, and went to work.
She now focused on her work only, trying not to think about her past but the present day. After all, she should live in the present.
During this period, there were fewer customers in the dessert shop. Only a few came here all day. The dessert business was quite seasonal. There was basically no point in keeping the dessert shop open every day after the boom season.
Gu Yan spent the whole day quietly in the dessert shop, watching the busy traffic outside the window. There should be no place for her to settle down in such a big Annan City.
A sense of loneliness and upset arose from her heart. She never felt that before. Since she left Mo Yichen, she had almost suffered all the hardships in life.
After leaving Lin’an City, Gu Yan grew up a lot. She gradually got used to living and working alone. Although the life was hard, it was still going well.
Gu Yan was still sentimental when the door of the dessert shop was suddenly pushed open. She was chilled by the icy wind. She didn’t expect that the temperature had dropped so quickly in Annan City in early fall.
“Welcome, how may I help you?” Gu Yan returned to her working state quickly.
“I want to order a beautiful lady. Is there any?” The comer said jokingly.
Gu Yan looked up and recognized that the person entering was exactly Manla, her good friend.
“You are joking. Why do you come today? Have you finished your work?” Gu Yan asked Manla.
Manla pulled out a chair casually and sat down, “Well, I just finished my work this afternoon and then came to you directly. Look, I treat you so well. Didn’t you miss me these days?” Manla joked.
“Let’s be serious. I didn’t miss you at all. What would you want? It’s on me today.” Gu Yan asked Manla.
“Okay. You treat me and I’ll pay the bill, my little cutie.” Manla stretched out her index finger and tapped Gu Yan on the forehead.
“What? No way!” Gu Yan refused stoutly.
Noticing Gu Yan’s unwillingness, Manla explained, “You are living a difficult life now, dear. Now you work and live alone and have no one to rely on. You need money to do everything. I appreciate your kindness, but I’ll take the check.”
Gu Yan knew that Manla was thinking for her. However, now that Manla had come around in her own turf to see her, she rejected Manla stoutly.
Manla failed to refuse Gu Yan, so she had to listen to Gu Yan.
After a while, Gu Yan brought two desserts and put them in front of Manla and herself, “You have finished your work today. When will you go back?”
“Tomorrow. I still have a lot of things to deal with in company. Otherwise, why should I come to you so late today?”
Hearing that Manla would leave tomorrow, Gu Yan was a bit sad, but she could do nothing.
“Well, don’t be sad. I will definitely visit you again once I get a chance.” Manla recognized Gu Yan’s sadness.
“You haven’t had dinner yet, right? I’ll treat you hot pot after you finish your work. Nothing can’t be solved with hot pot. If any, have it again.”
“Hahaha.” Gu Yan was amused by Manla’s words instantly.
Soon, Manla walked out of the dessert shop with Gu Yan. It was late at night, and the cold wind along the street made them tremble.
The two found a hot pot restaurant quickly and walked in. They chatted while eating the hot pot, as if all troubles were left behind.
“Well, Manla, it has been quite a while since I ate with someone else last time.”
“What kind of life you are living! You insisted on leaving Mo Yichen. Look, what benefits have you got?” Manla didn’t understand Gu Yan.
“I can’t rely on him for the rest of my life. Girls should be independent. What if we were abandoned in the end? Right?”
Manla shook her head and gave Gu Yan a contemptuous look. In fact, Manla agreed with Gu Yan in her heart. This was also why Manla worked hard.
After dinner, Manla sent Gu Yan home. They didn’t see each other for a long time. This time they finally found an opportunity. But happy times were always short. The two were reluctant but had to say goodbye.
Early the next morning, Manla texted to Gu Yan and then boarded the plane. By the time Gu Yan woke up, Manla had arrived at her destination.
Manla left but life would continue. Gu Yan washed and had breakfast as usual, and prepared to go to work.
Time flied. Mo Xiangyan seemed to have grown up suddenly to a good man from a little child before Mo Yichen even realized it.
Looking at Mo Xiangyan playing in the yard, Mo Yichen showed his affection to his son.
