Report to the president, the lady doesn't want you anymore
Chapter 171 Propose Again
The ward was completely silent, the air thick with the faint scent of disinfectant. Gu Yan and Ming Yuan were the only two people left in the room, sitting opposite each other. They stared at each other, each filled with words, yet they didn't know how to begin.
Finally, Gu Yan took a deep breath and broke the silence: "Mr. Ming, although I am also full of doubts and expectations, no matter what, let's proceed step by step. First, it would be better to test the parent-child relationship to avoid any misunderstandings and waste your precious time in vain."
Ever since she was successfully rescued from Wei Ming's clutches, Gu Yan seemed to have gradually regained her former strong and independent self. However, she was unaware of this change in herself.
Hearing Gu Yan's suggestion, Ming Yuan shook his head slightly and said softly: "In fact, there is no need to go through so much trouble. You and Nian Nian are simply printed from the same mold. Anyone who sees you will think that you are mother and daughter." His eyes were as gentle as water, and when he fell on Gu Yan, there was a hint of excitement that was difficult to conceal.
Gu Yan frowned and retorted, "But I don't think I look similar to Luo Luo." When she mentioned Luo Luo's name, a complicated expression flashed across Ming Yuan's face.
After a brief pause, Ming Yuan slowly spoke, revealing a long-hidden truth: "Lolo is not my biological daughter. Instead, she was adopted by your mother. Back then, she wanted to find a playmate for you when you were little, so she adopted you. All these years have passed, and although we're not related by blood, I've long considered her my own. If it weren't for Luo Luo by my side, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to hold on during those long years since I lost you and your mother."
It turned out that this was the truth that had been hidden all along, unknown to the public! Ming Luoluo, hiding outside the ward door, clearly heard the conversation inside the room about her life experience. At that moment, it seemed as if the whole world was collapsing in an instant.
Her eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief and despair. Her lips trembled slightly, and she tried to speak, but something seemed to be choking her throat. This sudden blow completely robbed her of her ability to think. She turned around slowly, distraught, like a zombie, and stumbled out of the hospital.
In the ward, when Gu Yan said, "No matter what, I hope you can let that woman go," her tone was calm, but the helplessness and pleading contained in it were hard to ignore. Although she didn't mention any names, Ming Yuan, as smart as his daughter, how could he not understand who she was referring to?
Facing Gu Yan's request, Ming Yuan was silent for a moment, and finally responded softly: "Okay, as long as it's what you say, Dad will agree to you. But child, you are still too weak now and need to rest for a while. As for the paternity test, we don't have to rush." After that, he looked at his pale daughter on the hospital bed with eyes full of pity, sighed softly, then turned and left the ward.
At this moment, Gu Yan was the only one left in the empty ward. She lay there quietly, staring blankly at the ceiling, tears streaming uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes.
At this moment, she felt extremely helpless, her heart filled with confusion and bewilderment. She seemed to have lost herself in a fog about this complicated emotional entanglement and her true inner thoughts, and had no way of distinguishing them.
The afternoon sun streamed through the windows of the hospital corridor, casting dappled shadows. Gu Yan resolutely stated that she wanted to first conduct a DNA paternity test. Ming Yuan and Gong Jin exchanged a glance and silently nodded in agreement. Together, the three of them headed to the relevant department to complete this crucial testing procedure.
When everything was over, Gong Jin carefully pushed Gu Yan, who was sitting in a wheelchair, back.
Just as they were about to reach the ward, two figures suddenly appeared not far ahead. Upon closer inspection, they saw that it was He Li and a beautiful girl with an outstanding temperament.
The girl was speaking to He Li anxiously, "He Li, your brother and mother are very worried about you. Come back to the capital with me! Your leg injury can't be delayed any longer."
It turned out that the woman who was talking to He Li was his sister-in-law Zhou Feifei, whom he had not seen for a long time.
However, in the face of his sister-in-law's earnest advice, He Li seemed to have heard nothing and remained silent.
Just as Zhou Feifei was feeling somewhat helpless, He Li turned around without warning. In an instant, their eyes met, and his gaze happened to fall on Gu Yan and Gong Jin, who were not far away.
Zhou Feifei was also very surprised when she saw Gu Yan, but He Li left here the next moment. Zhou Feifei did not stay for long, but chased after him directly.
Gu Yan felt very uncomfortable the moment she saw Zhou Feifei. Many inappropriate thoughts kept popping up in her mind. Who is this woman? What is her relationship with He Li? Didn't He Li say that the person he loved most in this life was Gu Yan? Then why would there be another woman around her?
Because the thoughts in her mind were surging like the tide, she was completely immersed in her wild imagination and was completely unaware of what Gong Jin said.
Time passed by minute by minute. Seeing that she had no reaction, Gong Jin could not help but frown slightly and shouted again with a louder voice: "Xiaoxiao, are you listening to me?"
This cry finally brought her back to reality from her chaotic thoughts. She raised her head abruptly as if waking from a dream, a trace of apology and embarrassment on her face, and stammered, "I'm sorry... I, I was just distracted."
Gong Jin stared into her eyes, thinking secretly in his heart.
In fact, he had already keenly noticed the subtle changes in Xiaoxiao long before, but even so, he was still unwilling to give up easily and wanted to seize the last chance to try again.
So, he took a deep breath and slowly said, "Xiaoxiao, whether you were Xixi in the past or Gu Yan now, in my heart, you only have one identity - that is Xiaoxiao. As for the Ming family and He Li, no matter what, as long as it is something you are unwilling to do, no one can force you to become a role you don't want to play."
When Gu Yan heard Gong Jin's affectionate words, her heart felt as if it was hit hard by a heavy hammer, and she suddenly felt an indescribable sense of guilt.
She suddenly realized that she had shown far too little care for Gong Jin since returning to this place. How could she be so heartless and treat him like a fickle and capricious person?
Thinking of this, Gu Yan's eyes became moist involuntarily, and tears welled up in her eyes, as if they would burst out at any time.
"Gong Jin, I think I really am Gu Yan. I think..." Xiao Xiao was about to continue speaking when she was interrupted by Gong Jin anxiously: "Wait! Listen to me first."
Gong Jin took a deep breath, then slowly and solemnly knelt on one knee.
His eyes were firm and affectionate as he stared straight at Xiaoxiao, as if they were the only two people left in the world. Then, he carefully reached into his pocket and took out an exquisite ring box.
When the ring box was gently opened, it made a crisp sound, which attracted Xiaoxiao's attention and made her look over involuntarily.
She was surprised to find a dazzling six-carat pink diamond inside the box. Its brilliance was like the brightest star in the night sky, impossible to ignore.
Gong Jin stared into Xiaoxiao's eyes and said sincerely, "Xiaoxiao, I know that so many unexpected things have happened in this period of time. Those successive misfortunes have hit us like a storm, and even caused our initial firm feelings to waver. But please believe me, no matter how many storms we go through, my love for you has never changed."
He paused, his tone becoming gentler. "Now, I am willing to give the right to choose back to you. If you no longer want to spend the rest of your life with me, then I will respect your decision and let you pursue your own happiness. At the same time, I promise you that I will do my best to cure your illness and will not let you suffer the slightest pain. But if at this moment you still have even a little hope for our future in your heart and are willing to give each other another chance to start over, I swear to use my life to prove that your choice is correct."
As Gong Jin spoke these words, he tried to keep his voice steady, but in reality, his hands were shaking slightly uncontrollably. Only he knew deep down what the consequences and choices would be if these words were blurted out.
He loved Xiaoxiao deeply, a love that surpassed everything in the world. However, it was precisely because of his deep and passionate feelings for Xiaoxiao that he had to be selfish for once and bring up the sensitive and heavy topic of marriage again.
At this moment, Gu Yan stared at the reflection in Gong Jin's deep eyes and clearly saw herself reflected in it. She knew that facing such sincere feelings from this man, she could no longer bear to let him down.
At the same time, as for He Li, perhaps the unforgettable love affair they once experienced together has really become a distant past.
"Hurry up and get up! The ground is too cold. Don't freeze yourself." Gu Yan said softly, her words revealing concern. But Gong Jin seemed to hear nothing, still staring stubbornly at Xiao Xiao, as if they were the only two people in the world.
Finally, after a long wait, Xiaoxiao slowly stretched out her right hand.
At this moment, Gong Jin held her hand without hesitation, and carefully put the ring that shone with bright light and symbolized eternal love on Xiaoxiao's slender ring finger.
Soon, the DNA results of Gu Yan and Ming Yuan came out, and they were indeed father and daughter. Gong Jin also printed out the wedding invitations in advance the day after Gu Yan agreed to the proposal.
