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

It was obvious that the person standing in front of him was Gu Yan, but her unfamiliar expression, different tone of voice, and unusual movements and behavior all made people feel that she was clearly a completely different individual.

At this moment, Gong Jin, who had been standing by, finally couldn't contain his anxiety. He slowly stepped forward and asked with a slightly trembling voice, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"

However, to everyone's surprise, Gu Yan turned around and looked at Gong Jin with an extremely cold and puzzled look, and asked coldly: "Who are you, and who is Xiaoxiao? I have no idea what you are talking about."

At this moment, Gu Yan's attention was suddenly attracted by a figure not far away - there was a figure covered in blood lying quietly on the cold ground.

When she saw clearly that the person was Ye Shuang, Gu Yan's face changed instantly and she shouted anxiously, "Mom, Mom!" Then, she suddenly let go of her hands that were hugging He Li as if she had gone crazy, and wanted to rush to where Ye Shuang was regardless of everything.

But due to the numerous misfortunes and shocks she had experienced before, Gu Yan's physical strength had already been exhausted to the limit. Before she could take a few steps, her body fell forward uncontrollably, and she was about to fall heavily to the ground. In a flash, He Li, who had been closely watching her every move, immediately stretched out his arms and caught Gu Yan, who was about to faint, with lightning speed.

Holding the unconscious Gu Yan in his arms, He Li frowned tightly. He felt that everything that happened today was too bizarre and strange, as if everything was beyond his prior expectations and control.

What was supposed to be a grand wedding full of joy and happiness has now turned into a horrifying crime scene.

Not only did Ye Shuang die, but more than a dozen other guests present were also affected by this sudden disaster and injured. Fortunately, most of their injuries were not particularly serious.

Although Gu Yan fell into a coma, his consciousness did not seem to be completely silent.

In her dream, every little thing that happened in the past few years flashed by quickly like a movie.

From Jiang Hao's death to He Li's appearance, from her falling into the sea and being rescued by Gong Jin, to her reunion with He Li, those fragments of Gu Yan's past that belonged only to her were pouring into her memory like a teleporter.

All the past events flooded back into his mind like a tide, and the final scene froze at the moment when Ye Shuang threw herself at him without hesitation and slowly fell down. "Mom!"

Gu Yan's screams of pain brought him back to life.

"Ayan! I'm here!" followed by another sentence, "Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid!"

Two voices rang out almost simultaneously, one on the left and one on the right. It turned out that there were two people sitting by the bed, one holding Gu Yan's hand, trying to comfort her.

Gu Yan slowly opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.

When she saw Gong Jin sitting to her left, her eyes instantly became clear. She forcefully pulled her right hand out of Gong Jin's grasp and said expressionlessly, "Mr. Gong, I remember everything now."

These words hit Gong Jin's heart like a heavy hammer, causing him to freeze completely.

Although Gong Jin had already had a premonition in his heart, when he heard Gu Yan say this with his own ears, he still felt an indescribable pain.

Almost, just a little bit... If he had been given a little more time, perhaps he could have successfully spent the rest of his life with her. However, now, everything has become a bubble.

When He Li heard this, his heart was shocked, but his first reaction was not joy.

He knew very well that Gu Yan's heart had already been hurt and scarred.

At this moment, his only wish was to alleviate the pain Gu Yan was enduring, even a tiny bit. As long as this goal could be achieved, he would agree to do anything, no matter what the cost.

Gu Yan slowly supported himself on the edge of the bed with his palms and sat up with difficulty.

Then, she turned her slightly pale face towards He Li, her eyes revealing an indescribable indifference, and her tone was as calm as water: "He Li, could you please step out for a moment?"

He Li certainly understood the deep meaning of her words, so he silently let go of the hand he had been holding tightly, stood up gently, slowly left the room, and closed the door, leaving the entire space completely to Gong Jin and Gu Yan in the room.

As for what the two people talked about in this room, no one knew. Time passed by minute by minute, and in less than ten minutes, the tightly closed door was gently pushed open from the inside.

Gong Jin stepped out, his expression as cold and serious as ever. His deep eyes stared straight at He Li, who was standing nearby. After a moment's silence, he finally spoke, "Regarding the specific details of follow-up treatment, I will arrange for a dedicated medical team to contact you and discuss it. He Li, please take good care of her."

After saying this, Gong Jin turned around without pausing for long, strode away quickly, and soon disappeared around the corner at the end of the corridor.

He Li stared deeply at Gong Jin. Those brief words seemed to weigh heavily on his heart. He knew clearly that those few words meant that Gong Jin had made up his mind to let go of this emotional entanglement.

Gong Jin had always been a man of decisiveness, able to let go easily. Amidst this complex and tangled emotional vortex of three people, he resolutely chose to mediate, willingly withdrawing and handing over his happiness to others.

Meanwhile, Gu Yan's condition was gradually improving, and her recovery was encouraging. Perhaps because she had experienced so many ups and downs, she now had a deeper understanding of life.

She knew very well that people often have a complex of returning to their roots. No matter how far they drift, they will eventually yearn to return to that familiar starting point.

So, after careful consideration, Gu Yan made an important decision - to take Ye Shuang back to Qingcheng. Ye Shuang should be happy to be buried with Jiang Hao.

During the days that Gu Yan was hospitalized, it was He Li who always stayed by his side and took good care of him.

However, what is surprising is that although they spend every day together, they do not have much communication and dialogue with each other.

The air seemed frozen, dull and oppressive. The two of them seemed to have suddenly lost the ability to express themselves, not knowing where to begin or what to say.

On this day, sunlight filtered through the mottled leaves, casting patches of golden light onto the hospital corridor. For Gu Yan, today was a special and slightly sad day—not only was it her last day before discharge, but it was also her last day in Beihuai.

The ward was filled with the faint scent of disinfectant, and a gentle breeze from the window fluttered the white curtains. Just then, the door was gently pushed open, and Ouyang Li, Ge Yu, and Gong Jin walked in one after another. Their faces were filled with concern and reluctance, especially Ge Yu, whose eyes were glistening with tears.

"Xiaoxiao, I heard that you have recovered all your memories now..." Ge Yu held Gu Yan's (Xiaoxiao) hand tightly, his voice trembling slightly, "But for some reason, I always feel that we are no longer as close as before. No matter what, please don't forget me!"

Hearing this, Gu Yan was slightly startled, a complex emotion welling up in his heart. Although the memories of the past were still clear, the familiar feeling of closeness seemed to have quietly faded. Looking at Ge Yu, whose face was covered in tears, Gu Yan felt an inexplicable sense of strangeness.

"Ms. Ge Yu, thank you so much for your care and concern for Xiaoxiao over the past few years. On Xiaoxiao's behalf, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you."

Gu Yan tried his best to make his tone sound gentle and sincere, "Although I am Xiaoxiao herself, to be honest, I really can't truly appreciate the friendship we felt back then."

These words were like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Ge Yu's heart.

She stared blankly at Gu Yan, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. The exquisite dessert cake she'd originally intended for Xiaoxiao sat quietly on the table, its wrapping still unopened. From the moment Gu Yan entered the room, she'd ignored it, not even taking a single bite.

The fate between people is always so wonderful and elusive. Sometimes it is like a fragile silk thread that breaks with a slight pull.

Ouyang Li stared at the woman in front of her quietly, feeling a surge of emotion. In comparison, Ouyang Li seemed much more open-minded, perhaps because the years of precipitation and rich life experience had endowed her with such indifference and composure.

Ouyang Li said gently, "Child, your future life will depend on you. You must remember that you always have the Gong family as a solid support. Even if you can't become the daughter-in-law of the Gong family in the end, in my heart, Ouyang Li, I have already treated you as my own daughter and loved you as dearly."

Hearing these words, Gu Yan's face blossomed into a sincere and warm smile, as charming as a flower in full bloom in spring. She softly replied, "Thank you, Madam Ouyang, for your kindness. I will definitely remember this friendship in my heart."

Gong Jin, who was standing aside, watched all this silently. He slowly took out an exquisite black card from his pocket.

The card shimmered mysteriously in the sunlight, as if imbued with endless power and blessings. Gong Jin took a deep breath and said in a slightly lowered voice, "Xiaoxiao, I originally intended to give this to you as a wedding gift after we got married. However, now that the situation has changed, I'll just give it to you as a gift of rebirth. I hope you won't refuse."

After saying that, Gong Jin gently handed the black card to Gu Yan.

Gu Yan did not refuse, she accepted it very calmly, "Gong Jin, we are all fine, we will all be happy."
