Chapter 25 Telephone
Chu Yan explained how she found a job here. She didn't expect to run into Shen Xing's relatives by chance when she went downstairs to move goods.

Gu Chuan listened to her quietly and suddenly asked: "How much is the monthly salary?"

"Well... not very high." Chu Yan looked at him carefully. He was wearing a high-end suit and looked noble. It would be very embarrassing to mention her salary of several thousand yuan in front of him. She quickly added: "But I enjoy this job now."

Gu Chuan thought he had forgotten it a long time ago, but now when he saw Chu Yan, he unexpectedly found that he could guess what she was thinking through her expression. He was quiet for a while and said, "I can provide you with a better job opportunity."

Chu Yan refused without thinking, "No need."

Gu Chuan looked at her.

Chu Yan also realized that she had rejected the offer too quickly. She thought about her wording and said, "I have no experience working outside these years. If you give me a good job opportunity, people will probably gossip about it."

"I do not mind."

Chu Yan was at a loss for words again. She couldn't say that she didn't want to owe him a favor. If she did, Shen Xing might have to pay her back. She didn't want to cause trouble for Shen Xing.

After a while, Chu Yan said: "In fact, Shen Xing also asked me to work in his company, but I don't think it's a good idea. Shen Xing also said that he doesn't care what others say, but I don't want to cause trouble for him. If I hear others say bad things about him, I can't help it..."

He said: "Can't help it?"

Chu Yan pursed her lips and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to help but quarrel with others, and then I'll embarrass him again."

For a moment, Gu Chuan felt like he had returned to the past.

At that time, he also told Chu Yan to come to work in the company. She could be his secretary or other clerk. As long as she wanted, he could arrange it.

But Chu Yan refused.

She stayed at home every day, typing on a laptop. She would happily tell him when her articles were published. Even though such a small publishing fee was nothing in Gu Chuan's eyes, he would be happy with her.

He couldn't remember when he started to forget, but in fact, Chu Yan had always been a person who was easily satisfied.

Gu Chuan stared at her for a long time and asked a question: "Don't you care about forgetting the past?"

Chu Yan was a little surprised, but she quickly guessed that it was Shen Xing who told him about his amnesia. She heard that Shen Xing and Gu Chuan had a good relationship, so it was not surprising that they talked about these things.

She smiled and said, "It would be a lie to say that I don't care, but life must go on. My important people are by my side now. Now that I think about it, I'm very lucky."

When talking about this topic, she was not uneasy or confused. After losing her memory, which was equivalent to restarting her life, she was able to keep herself so emotionally stable. It must be because the people around her gave her a great sense of security.

The answer to the question of who that person would be is obvious.

Under the color of beautiful roses, Gu Chuan's gaze seemed to have some jumping light in his originally calm black eyes, and the silent atmosphere like stagnant water suddenly had some ups and downs of emotional intensity.

"What's the reason for your amnesia?"

Chu Yan said: "I fell into the water while taking a walk. Fortunately, Shen Xing rescued me from the water. He stayed with me in the hospital for many days. When I first opened my eyes and saw him, I thought he was unreliable."

Thinking of the past, Chu Yan couldn't help but smile.

Gu Chuan inexplicably felt that her smile was dazzling, "Falling into the water?"

Chu Yan nodded, "It seems to be in a place called... Lover's Lake."

Gu Chuan's throat suddenly tightened, and the tenseness of his body made him feel very uncomfortable.

Lover's Lake, that's where he proposed to her.

Why did she go there? And why did she fall into the water there?

Was her falling into the water really just an accident?

The elevator reached the fifth floor and the door opened. Chu Yan saw her colleague, who quickly took the things from her hand. Seeing a handsome guy next to Chu Yan, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is this your boyfriend?"

Gu Chuan heard Chu Yan's immediate denial, "No."

Chu Yan was afraid of being misunderstood, so she quickly explained: "This gentleman is my boyfriend's cousin. He and I happened to meet here and we exchanged a few words."

The colleague said "Oh" and couldn't help but look at Gu Chuan. He intuitively felt that there was something wrong with this man standing next to Chu Yan.

Chu Yan also remembered something, and took out a business card of their company's wedding planner and handed it to Gu Chuan, "Cousin, when you and your cousin's wife have your wedding, if you need to find a wedding planner, please consider our company."

Gu Chuan clenched the business card in his hand and responded simply.

Chu Yan said goodbye and followed her colleague back. The colleague whispered: "Why does your boyfriend's cousin look so cold?"

"No." Chu Yan replied in a low voice: "Mr. Gu is a calm and reserved person, not cold."

They walked away slowly, and the sound gradually faded away.

Gu Chuan looked at the rose in his hand and realized that he had forgotten to return the flower.

The moment Chu Yan appeared holding a huge bunch of warm red roses, she had such a magical power that people couldn't take their eyes off her.

It was very strange. In the past, he always thought that Chu Yan was suitable for white roses, and he always sent white roses as flowers to her. This was the first time he knew that she was also so suitable for red roses.

In the hospital ward, Song Xueying accidentally cut her hand while peeling fruit. Lin Chenan quickly used a tissue to treat the wound on her hand. His voice became much more anxious, "You are worried about something."

Song Xueying shook her head subconsciously, "I'm fine."

"Aiai, I know you." Lin Chenan carefully observed her expression, "Is he not good to you?"

Song Xueying quickly said: "No, Gu Chuan treats me very well."

But under Lin Chenan's gaze, her words seemed so pale and powerless.

Song Xueying has not had a good time these days. Even though Gu Chuan was sleeping next to her, she felt that he was distant. Gu Chuan didn't seem to have changed. He was still very gentle and caring to her, but Song Xueying didn't know why, she just had a strange feeling that Gu Chuan had changed.

She knew very well that the reason Gu Chuan and Chu Yan broke up was because Chu Yan became more and more unreasonable, causing Gu Chuan to lose his patience step by step, so Song Xueying did not want to become another Chu Yan.

Although she was clearly feeling uneasy, Song Xueying didn't dare to ask anything. She was afraid that if she asked too many questions, she would destroy her stable relationship with Gu Chuan.

For her, Gu Chuan was willing to go against his parents and even leave his family to become an ordinary person. He did so much for her, how could she doubt him?
Song Xueying kept all her complicated thoughts inside her heart, which made her almost unable to breathe.

Lin Chenan couldn't bear to see her like this, so he held her hand and said softly: "The Song Xueying I hope to see will always be optimistic, lively, and cheerful, not like she is now. Xueying, do you know? Although you didn't shed tears, you look like you're crying now."

Even though they have been separated for a year, Lin Chenan is still the person who knows Song Xueying best.

Song Xueying finally couldn't hold back her tears. The man opened his arms and held her in his arms, becoming her last safe haven.

"I can't understand..." Fu Jun leaned against the wall with his hands in his pockets, and said with interest: "I stand here and don't disturb them because I want to watch the show. You stand here without moving. Do you have any strange habits?"

Gu Chuan did not respond. Fu Jun could not even tell whether Gu Chuan was happy or angry. Gu Chuan was too calm. The calmer the lake was, the more terrifying the beasts lurking in the deep water seemed.

Fu Jun was surprised to find that he could no longer figure out Gu Chuan at all.

It was just sunset, and the afterglow of the sunset slipped in through the glass windows, dividing the aisle into light and shadow.

Gu Chuan stood between the light and shadow, his tall figure looking even more lonely and frail. "I want the original surgery report from the hospital."

Fu Jun first looked at Gu Chuan in surprise. After a moment, he smiled and said, "The embryo is developing normally, and her body has not shown any adverse pregnancy reactions."

A year ago, Fu Jun saw Chu Yan undergoing surgery, so how could he not have secretly investigated? It was just that he was able to hold back and not say it out, which was also a skill.

Fu Jun also told Gu Chuan very directly that Chu Yan chose to give up the child not because there was any problem with the child, nor because of her health problems, but simply because she believed that the child should not be born.

The reason was very simple. That year, there was a scandal between the heir of the Gu family and an ordinary intern. That year was also the time when the relationship between Chu Yan and Gu Chuan was the worst.

Gu Chuan actually remembered the night a year ago, and many vague details emerged in his mind.

He was afraid to go home and to have endless quarrels with Chu Yan.

As usual, he chose to work overtime. When he walked out of the company building late at night, his mobile phone had many missed call notifications. Another call came in, and he was attracted by the sound of crying.

The new intern was squatting on the side of the road and crying secretly because he was ostracized by his colleagues. When he saw his immediate boss, he was so scared that he fell to the ground.

She cried miserably and her falling movements were very silly.

Gu Chuan couldn't help but smile a little.

At some point, the ringing of the last call stopped, and he never received any calls from Chu Yan since then.

It was strange that at this moment, every detail that happened in that seemingly insignificant day was replaying in Gu Chuan's mind.

He lowered his brows and fell into unprecedented confusion.

If he had answered Chu Yan's call that night, would a lot of things have been different?
