Gu Yan looked at He Li in front of her, her heart filled with pain and helplessness.

She really couldn't understand why God was so cruel to this affectionate man.

The scene seven years ago seemed to be still vivid in my mind. I was young and ignorant at that time and hurt his heart with my own hands.

But now, fate played a trick on her again, forcing her to make the decision to hurt him again seven years later.

At this moment, He Li rushed forward like an enraged cheetah and hugged Gu Yan's shoulders tightly with his strong arms.

His eyes were full of determination and unwillingness, as if he was desperately grasping the last ray of hope in the darkness.

"No! No reason in this world can separate us, Ayan!"

He Li shouted loudly, his voice trembling slightly, "Let's leave Jinghai. There are too many painful memories here. We can go live somewhere else, to a place where no one knows us and start over. No one there will know our past, and no one will interfere with our happiness. What do you say? A Yan, come with me..."

At this time, He Li's eyes were slightly red, but he still stared at Gu Yan, expecting to hear the answer he had been dreaming of from her.

However, facing He Li's true confession, Gu Yan felt heartbroken.

Because she knew clearly that the obstacles between them were not only from the outside world, but also from many unspeakable difficulties...

He Li stood there, his eyes revealing endless pleading and desire, and he was begging Gu Yan bitterly.

And all this stems from the truth he just learned - a truth that is enough to change the trajectory of their destiny.

At first, when He Li learned the truth, he instinctively chose to resist.

He couldn't believe the facts before him and was unwilling to face the consequences of the cruel truth.

However, after just one hour, he had to force himself to accept it, because he knew that if he didn't, he would lose Gu Yan forever.

For He Li, if he cannot be with Gu Yan in this life, then his life will become boring and meaningless.

At this moment, he seemed to be in the abyss of darkness, and only Gu Yan could be the light that illuminated his way forward.

Gu Yan looked at He Li quietly, her heart full of contradictions and struggles.

In fact, didn't she also want to agree to He Li?

But her reason told her that this was just a way to escape reality.

After all, human power is ultimately limited, and no matter how hard one tries, it is difficult to fight against the arrangements of fate.

Although she was able to block out the noisy voices from the outside world, she could never escape the self-condemnation from deep within her heart.

Just as Gu Yan mustered up the courage to respond to He Li, the roar of a car engine came from afar.

A black car slowly stopped in front of the two of them, the door opened, and Ye Zhen appeared in everyone's sight sitting in a wheelchair.

"Let Gu Yan go, He Li, you bastard! Do you really want Gu Yan to live in shame for the rest of her life? Do you know what is the most important thing for a woman?" Ye Zhen shouted loudly, his tone full of anger and dissatisfaction.

Although she is sitting in a wheelchair at the moment, her powerful aura has not diminished at all, and people dare not underestimate her.

"Mom, I really can't lose Ayan. Ayan can't live without me either!" He Li looked at Ye Zhen with a firm face, his eyes revealing stubbornness and persistence.

Hearing her son's words, Ye Zhen was so angry that she was shaking all over, and her lips were a little blue. She stood up trembling, raised her hand and gave He Li a loud slap in the face.

"How can you be so stubborn? You are no longer an ignorant child. Can't you even tell the difference between right and wrong, and what you should and shouldn't do? In terms of seniority, A Yan is my niece. With our relationship, we will never allow such a ridiculous thing to happen!" Ye Zhen roared angrily, his voice becoming a little hoarse with anger.

You know, Ye Zhen usually looks gentle and dignified, and it has been a long time since he was so angry as today.

He Li was a little dazed by the slap, but he still wanted to open his mouth to refute a few words. However, at this moment, Ye Zhen's face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't even catch his breath, and he fell straight back.

"mom!"

He Li was shocked and rushed forward to support Ye Zhen who was about to fall to the ground.

Gu Yan, who was standing by, was also frightened by the scene and quickly shouted, "Auntie!"

The two did not dare to delay for even a moment and quickly sent the unconscious Ye Zhen to a nearby hospital.

Along the way, He Li's heart was in his throat, and he kept praying that nothing would happen to his mother.

After a tense examination, the doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The patient is fine. He just fainted due to a sudden attack of anger.

But you must never let her get too excited again."

Hearing this, He Li's heart finally settled down.

He sat quietly beside the bed, looking at his mother who was still in a coma, his heart was filled with confusion. What should he do with this relationship?

At this extremely tense moment, unexpectedly, He Quan rushed to the hospital in a hurry.

It turned out that he received a call from the doctor and learned that Ye Zhen had encountered an accident.

When He Quan arrived at the hospital in a panic, he had no idea what had happened, but his angry gaze was instantly fixed on He Li.

He Quan raised his hand without saying a word and gave He Li a loud slap in the face.

He roared in rage, "You ungrateful bastard! Your mother's condition had just improved a little, and you've pissed her off to the point of hospitalization! Do you have to push her to the brink of death before you'll stop? Seven years ago, because of your so-called love, not only did your mother suffer a severe blow, but even your eldest brother was unfortunately implicated. I thought that after all these years of hardship, you would have grown up and become sensible, but I didn't expect that once you met this woman, you became like a demon, completely losing your mind!"

In just half an hour, He Li was first slapped by his mother, and then slapped hard by his father.

He stood there in a daze, the burning pain on his face making him feel extremely ashamed. Gu Yan, who was standing by, also felt a pang of pain in her heart when she saw He Li in such a miserable state.

She hurried forward, stopped He Quan from continuing to attack, and said with a guilty look on her face, "Uncle, please calm down and don't blame He Li anymore. If someone must be held responsible for this, then punish me. All the faults are mine. Whether it was seven years ago or now, it was my actions that led to today's situation. Please let He Li go..."

Gu Yan's words were like a gust of wind. Not only did they fail to calm the anger burning in He Quan's heart, but instead they added fuel to the fire, making the flames burn even more fiercely.

He Quan roared angrily, "Miss Gu, I'm teaching my son a lesson. Please, as an unrelated outsider, shut up! Don't think that just because you're his nominal wife you can meddle in our family affairs. Even if you become the mother of his child in the future, don't say such inconsiderate words!"

In fact, He Quan just made up an inappropriate metaphor casually, but when these words reached Gu Yan's ears, they were as terrifying as a thunderclap.

A child between her and He Li? The mere thought of it was terrifying. How could there be a child belonging to the two of them in this world?

Even if that day really comes, it will definitely be a nightmare full of sins.

Gu Yan suppressed the fear and anxiety in her heart, tried to calm herself down, and said in a trembling but firm voice: "Uncle, please calm down first.

He Li and I will definitely go through the divorce procedures. From now on, I will never appear next to He Li again. I can promise you this."

After several head-on confrontations with Gu Yan, He Quan knew very well that this seemingly weak woman in front of him actually had an extremely strong heart, even stronger than He Li.

However, what was unexpected was that she actually took the initiative to make concessions and said these words. This was completely beyond his original assumptions and expectations.

"What are you talking about! We are already husband and wife, so divorce is not an option between us in this life!"

When He Li heard what Gu Yan said, he felt as if his head was about to explode.

Because before this, he hadn't thought about how to properly and perfectly handle this difficult situation. But who could have imagined that Gu Yan would turn her back on him without hesitation at this critical moment?

At this time, He Quan was already tired of listening.

"I hope you can keep your promise and practice what you preach! Also, I advise you to leave this place quickly, lest your mother faint again when she wakes up, angered by you, this rebellious and unfilial son!" In reality, He Quan's affection for Ye Zhen was pitifully small. Today, he was simply leveraging his parents' prestige and pressure to find an opportunity to vent his emotions.

He Li knew very well that if he continued to stay here and remain in a stalemate, it would be meaningless.

Fortunately, the doctor had just told him clearly that his mother's physical condition was not serious.

So judging from the current situation, avoiding meeting them for the time being may be the wisest option.

Gu Yan had no choice but to follow He Li and leave first. Not long after the two of them stepped into the elevator, when it stopped at the next floor, a figure flashed into their sight - it was Fu Xu who walked in!
