The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 311: Let’s Get Married

Dao An said, "I’m also happy for President Gu."

Gu Yuan: "Thank you. Rest up early when you’re finished."

"Okay, President Gu, you too."

After ending the video conference with Dao An, Gu Yuan stretched.

She told Chi Yu she needed three hours to finish some work and asked him to wait or rest early, but now she finished an hour ahead of schedule, feeling completely refreshed.

She left the study for the living room.

Chi Yu was nowhere to be seen in the living room.

Gu Yuan went downstairs but still didn’t see Chi Yu. Her heart skipped a beat, worried that he had left again, so she asked Uncle Xiang, "Have you seen Chi Yu?"

Uncle Xiang thought for a moment, "Mr. Chi was just taking a call in the living room, he must have gone outside to answer it."

"Alright, I see." Gu Yuan nodded.

The Gu Mansion is large. In the past, Gu Yuan never worried about Chi Yu getting lost; it was as familiar to him as his own home. But now Chi Yu had only been to the Gu Mansion twice; he wasn’t very familiar with it.

She stepped into the front garden, passed the fountain surrounded by four goddess statues, feeling the lush lawn beneath her feet, and sensed that the Gu Mansion at that moment was filled with warmth and harmony.

Because from now on, it wouldn’t just be her and Suisui; Chi Yu would also be by her side.

Hopefully...

Voices could be heard coming from behind the third fountain. Gu Yuan listened closely and confirmed that it was Chi Yu on the phone with someone.

She hadn’t meant to eavesdrop and felt it wasn’t necessary, but she caught a few words:

—"Should I seek treatment now, or wait until my body starts failing?"

—"I’ll cooperate, but I’m fine now, no problems. I just want to understand the situation, in case that day really comes."

—"Because there’s someone I care about more now."

The closer Gu Yuan got, the clearer it became.

She stopped listening, changed direction, and walked back. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

She sat in the living room for a while, calming herself to appear unaffected until Chi Yu returned. She sat still, smiling warmly at him, "I just finished work and didn’t see you. I was about to look for you."

Chi Yu showed no noticeable expression either, "I took a call, it was from home."

"Home?" Gu Yuan rested her chin on her hand, "Still that miserable home?"

All lies were exposed, Chi Yu didn’t want to continue the charade. He sat down beside Gu Yuan, "That was all made up; my current identity is with the surname Quan."

"Quan Jin."

"Yes."

"The Quan Family is great, a prestigious clan in Yanjing. At the time, why wasn’t I as lucky as you? Though my surname is also Gu, I ended up in a psychiatric hospital."

Chi Yu knew a lot, and he told it all to Gu Yuan.

The parallel world traversed unconsciously—they both fell into each other’s worlds, which erased them from their original lives. But upon returning, everything returned to its rightful place.

Chi Yu was the same.

The unconscious matched people’s mental worlds to compatible bodies, becoming the person they inhabit.

Gu Yuan’s mental world wasn’t good, sending her into such a dire situation unconsciously.

"So you..." Will you leave again?

The words stuck in Gu Yuan’s throat. She dared not voice them, afraid to touch his line of defense, if he averted her, found his own way, then continually repeated the cycle.

"What?" Chi Yu pulled her over, resting his chin on her shoulder, gently rubbing against it.

Gu Yuan smiled gently, "So, will you live as Quan Jin now, do you still want the name Chi Yu?"

"Yes, I want them both," he said, holding her tighter, "Everything about you, whether created by me or always existed, I want it all."

Gu Yuan’s nose felt sour.

She held back negative emotions.

Changed the subject.

She said, "It was later that I guessed the person Suisui encountered that night at Xiangxilu was you. Did you tell Suisui your name back then?"

"I did," Chi Yu sighed, "but Suisui seems to have forgotten."

Gu Yuan: "No wonder, because if Suisui remembered your name, even if she said Chi Yu, I would have thought of you. But Suisui told me it was a friend who repays."

Chi Yu: "..."

Gu Yuan explained what happened that evening, "I had a dinner at Xiangxilu. That afternoon, Suisui upset her early teacher so much that she resigned. Sheng Yi was available, so I asked her to look after Suisui. Later, because Suisui was too difficult, wanting to find me, Sheng Yi indulgently brought her to Xiangxilu. Sheng Yi only exchanged a few words with someone, and Suisui wandered off with her favorite Bobo backpack, but unexpectedly she met you."

This was all new to Chi Yu.

He only knew that night was his first encounter with his daughter.

But he hadn’t realized Suisui was his and Yuanyuan’s daughter, mistaking her for someone’s lost porcelain doll.

Chi Yu said, "Meeting Suisui was an accident. I was planning to find you."

About the compensation, Chi Yu at the time thought, even at such a young age, was she already pretending for money?

How could there be such an adorable child?

Not worried she’d be stolen away outside.

The two nestled together, talking about many things.

Mostly it was Gu Yuan speaking, Chi Yu listening, comforting her with kisses when feeling troubled, resolving all doubts, including their three-year interaction, misunderstandings, and his reputation in the entertainment industry.

Everything was revealed to Chi Yu.

"I was such a jerk for not recognizing your goodwill," he reproached himself to no end.

But Gu Yuan laughed, "You were quite a jerk. But..."

She raised her hand, touching his face, "You didn’t particularly like the entertainment industry. Entering it was only for me. Since everything starts afresh, choose the career you like, or, return to being Young Master Quan, and then..."

She gazed into his eyes, "Then, we’ll get married."

Repeat occurrences won’t change.

If it were then, it remains so now.

Before, she wanted marriage, his delay was because he knew the possibility of leaving was high.

What about this time?
