Report to the president, the lady doesn't want you anymore

After receiving Gu Yan's firm and warm affirmative response, He Li seemed to be overwhelmed by a wave of happiness, and the joy in his heart was uncontrollable like a volcanic eruption.

He couldn't help but open his arms and hugged tightly the woman in front of him who had been haunting his dreams - Gu Yan.

At this moment, He Li's heart was surging and he was extremely excited. He couldn't even find any appropriate words to describe his mood at the moment.

It felt like a lonely boat that had been drifting in the vast ocean for a long time finally found a harbor, or like suddenly seeing the light after groping in the darkness for a long time.

However, just when He Li couldn't help himself and was about to lower his head to kiss Gu Yan, something he didn't expect happened - Gu Yan actually turned her face slightly and cleverly avoided his kiss.

At this moment, the intimate atmosphere that had originally permeated between the two of them disappeared like smoke, replaced by an awkward silence and awkwardness.

Gu Yan felt equally uncomfortable. She bit her lip lightly, her eyes flickering. Finally, she mustered up the courage to speak, "A Li, I'm sorry... I really can't feel comfortable getting so close to you so quickly. Please give me some time."

After saying this, she seemed to have used up all her strength, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He Li looked at Gu Yan's slightly painful expression and felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He knew very well that Gu Yan's agreement to leave with him and start a new life together was the biggest compromise and concession she could make.

Thinking of this, He Li took a deep breath, trying to calm his agitated heart. Then he said to Gu Yan very gently and seriously, "Ayan, please believe me. Even if we can't be as close as other couples right now, I am willing to have a purely platonic relationship with you. As long as I can be by your side, I will be satisfied."

Hearing He Li's sincere words, a trace of emotion and relief flashed in Gu Yan's eyes.

She raised her head, stared into He Li's affectionate eyes, nodded slowly, and responded softly: "Okay, I hope you can do what you say."

From that moment on, the haze that had shrouded the two people's hearts gradually dissipated, and a relaxed and joyful atmosphere permeated between them again.

They just smiled at each other, then walked out of the hospital hand in hand with brisk steps, heading towards a future full of unknowns but also full of expectations.

Just as Gu Yan turned around and prepared to leave, for some reason, an inexplicable urge surged in her heart, driving her to turn around and look at the closed door again. As expected, she saw Ye Zhen standing there quietly.

That’s right, just before walking down the stairs, Gu Yan and Ye Zhen reached an agreement.

She personally promised Ye Zhen that in just one week, she would completely disappear from He Li's world without a trace.

However, in exchange, she made only one request to Ye Zhen - she hoped that Ye Zhen could take good care of her mother for the rest of his life.

Ye Zhen never expected that Gu Yan would make such a choice. This path can be said to be the most difficult and most disadvantageous for her.

For a moment, Ye Zhen felt mixed emotions and was overwhelmed with emotion.

"Good boy! Perhaps I can only say that you and He Li are destined to be apart in this life.

But it doesn't matter. No matter where in the world you want to go, no matter which country, I will do my best to help you realize your wish. Also, here's a bank card with 200 million yuan in it. Please accept it as a small gift from your aunt, a small compensation for you. Also, regarding the 15% stake in the He Group, I'm already in the process of handling the relevant matters. I believe that before you leave Jinghai City, you will officially become a shareholder of the He Group. My child, no matter what happens in the future, you must take good care of yourself..."

Ye Zhen said this earnestly, his eyes full of love and reluctance.

Ye Zhen took out everything she could give. Gu Yan shook her head and said, "Aunt, I don't need anything. I just ask that you take good care of He Li after I'm gone. He has suffered so much these years."

In this way, the two women who occupied the most important positions in He Li's life quietly determined the trajectory of his life in the long years to come in an unexpected yet seemingly destined way.

They may have just said a few words or made a few decisions inadvertently, but for He Li, these were like heavy mountains pressing on his shoulders, changing the direction of his progress and the course of his destiny.

Just as Gu Yan and He Li stepped into the manor gate, their attention was attracted by two figures that suddenly appeared.

Looking closely, they turned out to be two uninvited visitors - Gu Yihuai and his frail son Gu An.

Gu Yan had never expected to meet the father and son here again. Now the mother was under the most comprehensive protection, so when facing Gu Yihuai, a cunning man like a fox, she had no fear in her heart.

He Li stared at the two people in front of him with cold eyes, moved his body slightly, and protected Gu Yan behind him without leaving any trace.

Meanwhile, Gu Yihuai wore a smile on his face. He held his son's hand tightly and walked quickly forward, saying, "Xiaoyan, why are you back so late? Your brother and I have been waiting for you for so long!"

Gu Yan's eyes fell on Gu An, who was standing beside Gu Yihuai and looked pale and as if he had been ill for a long time. Suddenly, a complicated feeling welled up in her heart.

There is absolutely no friendship between her and this half-brother, who is nominally from the same father as her.

She frowned slightly, her tone cold and direct: "If you have something to say, just say it. No need to beat around the bush."

You have to know that Gu Yihuai is a person who will not do anything without profit. If there is nothing important, he will never step into this "Three Treasures Hall" easily.

Moreover, in the bidding event not long ago, Gu Yan had done a lot of things to trip him up and set traps for him. It can be said that he had been really screwed over.

According to common sense, when Gu Yihuai saw Gu Yan at this moment, he must have been so angry that he wanted to tear her into pieces to relieve his hatred!

How could he not only not be furious, but instead appear to be so peaceful and harmonious? It was truly unbelievable.

However, facing Gu Yan's cold words and undisguised sarcasm and disdain, Gu Yihuai seemed to be completely unconcealed, with a faint smile always on his face.

In fact, he was clear in his mind, knowing that the reason he had come to the door this time was because he needed help. As the saying goes, one has to bow his head under the eaves. Although he was extremely reluctant, the situation was stronger than him, and he had to endure when he had to.

So no matter how bad Gu Yan's attitude was or how harsh her words were, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger, keeping a low profile.

"Look at what you're saying. Now that you've become a member of the He family, it won't be long before you have a place in the huge He Group. Moreover, your mother and Mr. He's mother are sisters from the same mother. So, I can be considered a relative of the He family."

Although every word of Gu Yihuai's words was true, He Li felt uncomfortable. Even though he knew that these were the facts, he knew that Gu Yihuai was not a good person and must be hiding some ulterior motives.

Fortunately, Gu Yan, who was standing by, had a sharp eye and instantly saw through Gu Yihuai's true thoughts. She couldn't help but sneer and said, "Huh, what's the matter? Mr. Gu, are you still trying to climb up the He family's ladder? It's a pity that I can't touch a penny of the He family's money. Besides, if you still refuse to tell the truth, don't blame me for kicking you out without any hesitation!"

Gu Yan was completely disgusted with this despicable, shameless man and didn't want to be entangled with him for even a moment longer. If possible, she wished she would never see Gu Yihuai again in her life.

Gu Yihuai knew very well that Gu Yan's hatred for him had reached its peak at this moment, like a raging fire that could not be extinguished.

At this point, how could he care about his face? He suddenly kicked Gu An hard.

In an instant, the defenseless Gu An flew straight out like a kite with a broken string, and then fell to his knees on the ground with a "thump".

This sudden change shocked everyone present. No one expected such a thing to happen.

Faced with such a shocking scene, Gu Yan was completely stunned. Her eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief.

After a long while, she came back to her senses and then shouted at Gu Yihuai in anger: "What on earth are you doing? How can you be so harsh?"

At this time, Gu An, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly raised his head and looked at his sister.

His face was filled with pain and helplessness. He managed a faint smile and said in a trembling voice, "Sister, I'm so sorry. I really didn't mean it! I was just impulsive at the time. I definitely didn't mean to cripple that kid Jiang Qitian!"

After saying that, Gu An lowered his head, not daring to look at Gu Yan's angry eyes again.

Hearing this, Gu Yan felt as if her head had been struck hard by a heavy hammer, instantly emitting a loud buzzing sound. She was completely stunned, completely unable to believe what she had heard. But just a moment later, an uncontrollable anger erupted from her heart like a volcano.

Her eyes widened, her face flushed crimson, and she rushed forward without hesitation, grabbing Gu An's collar tightly. Her knuckles turned white from the excessive tension she was using.
