After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

"What are you doing here?"

Shen Yao's mind was in a state of confusion after seeing this man.

Bo Yuxiu stepped forward and shook the bag in his hand. "I brought you a dress. Aren't you going to your ex-husband's wedding? You should dress up nicely."

"how do you know?"

"Ye Yingying wants the whole world to know that she's getting married to Gu Tianyou. We're in the same circle, how could I not know?"

"I forgot, Teacher Bo comes from the Bo family." Shen Yao knew that the Bo family ancestors were once the elders of the Republic.

Therefore, it's incredibly easy for anyone to find out any information.

"Let me try on the dress and see if it fits."

As Bo Yuxiu spoke, he had already moved closer to the gate.

People passed by from time to time in the morning, and Shen Yao couldn't keep Bo Yuxiu standing at the door, so she had to let him come in first.

Upon entering the house, Bo Yuxiu took out three or four formal dresses from the bag and placed them on the sofa.

"Go try them on and see which one suits you."

Having been raised by the Gu family for years, Shen Yao naturally knew the styles and approximate prices of these dresses.

She was astonished when she saw it.

"Teacher Bo, your dress is too expensive."

"These few styles I picked out all suit your temperament perfectly."

As Bo Yuxiu spoke, he took out the first item and handed it to Shen Yao.

Shen Yao remembered seeing this model in the window of a luxury brand store; if she remembered correctly, it should cost seven figures.

She wanted to refuse, but Bo Yuxiu's bright eyes were fixed on her, and she didn't even have the courage to refuse.

Left with no other choice, she went to try on the dress.

Honestly, she didn't want to be outshone by Ye Yingying at Gu Tianyou's wedding.

This isn't a competition between women, but a fight for pride.

An hour later, Shen Yao finally decided which one to wear.

Bo Yuxiu nodded in satisfaction, folded the remaining dresses again, and then said something that shocked Shen Yao.

"The remaining few might come in handy when we get married, so I'll keep them with you for now."

Shen Yao: "......"

After realizing what was happening, she quickly refused, "These dresses still have the tags on, so you can return them. I'll buy the dress I'm wearing, however much it costs."

Bo Yuxiu seemed not to hear the woman's words, and instead continued to straighten his suit.

"This outfit of mine matches yours perfectly. I'll come pick you up for the wedding in three days."

"Wait!" Shen Yao finally couldn't help but interrupt, "Bo Yuxiu, I never promised to marry you, and I never said I would take you to Gu Tianyou's wedding."

Bo Yuxiu loosened his tie, walked to Shen Yao's side, circled her a little, and suddenly hugged her slender waist from behind.

"I told you I would take responsibility for you, after all, I kissed you... for so long."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yao's face instantly turned bright red.

It's wrong to bring up this matter.

Shen Yao had gradually forgotten about this matter, but this man deliberately brought it up again.

Did he do it on purpose?

Shyness, frustration, and a mix of other emotions welled up inside me.

Before Shen Yao could put these emotions aside, she heard the man's heavy breathing.

"This is getting more and more outrageous." Shen Yao angrily tried to pull Bo Yuxiu's hand away, but the man said something shocking at that moment.

"I've already booked my marriage registration for 11 a.m., let's go."

Shen Yao could no longer pretend to be calm.

She abruptly broke free from the man's hands, turned around and looked at him, "Bo Yuxiu, don't treat marriage like a game!"

"I'm serious." Bo Yuxiu's handsome face did indeed show a serious and affectionate expression.

Shen Yao could not tell from his expression that he was acting.

But she still couldn't accept that she and Bo Yuxiu were suddenly going to register their marriage.

She shook her head violently. "No, no, I can't marry you."

"Why? Do you still have feelings for Gu Tianyou?"

"No, I stopped loving him a long time ago."

"What's that for?"

Bo Yuxiu pressed her relentlessly, cornering Shen Yao.

"Because I don't believe anyone will love me forever. Bo Yuxiu, can you guarantee that you will only love me from beginning to end?"

"I can."

"Hmph, I don't believe it. What's the point of getting married and then divorced?" Shen Yao had no expectations for relationships and marriage, and was even pessimistic.

"Don't let Gu Tianyou and Chu Yao influence you. There is still true love in this world," Bo Yuxiu patiently persuaded Shen Yao.

Shen Yao shook her head again, "No matter what you say, I can't go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married with you today."

After saying that, Shen Yao pushed Bo Yuxiu away forcefully, walked to the dressing room, and took off her dress.

After changing into casual clothes, Shen Yao came out again and found that Bo Yuxiu was gone.

She initially thought the man was in the bathroom.

After waiting for a long time, there was still no response from the bathroom.

She walked over, opened the bathroom door, and found it empty.

I went to the kitchen, but there was no one there.

I tried calling Bo Yuxiu's name, but the whole room was empty and no one answered.

Shen Yao was somewhat disappointed.

She couldn't quite explain why she felt this sense of loss.

Looking at the dress in her hands, she felt a little lost.

Three days later, she was going to attend Gu Tianyou's wedding.

Actually, she was still somewhat timid.

I feel somewhat lost.

She needs someone by her side.

Just as she was lost in thought, the door opened again.

Bo Yuxiu walked in, carrying a thick document bag.

Shen Yao, who was lying on the sofa, suddenly raised her head.

"You... why are you back again?"

Bo Yuxiu walked up to her, knelt on one knee, and handed Shen Yao a thick briefcase.

"Here are the property certificates, share agreements, bank cards, and credit cards for the 19 properties and 10 companies under my name. I'm handing them all over to you. If you register our marriage today, your name will be on all of these."

Shen Yao looked at the man in front of her. He had a buzz cut, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and well-defined features. He was dressed in a suit and tie, looking clean, neat, and domineering yet with a touch of righteousness and gentleness.

"Since you were able to find out so much information, you should know about my situation and my family of origin, right?"

Shen Yao believes that sincerity is the ultimate weapon in relationships.

She no longer wanted to hide her past as she had done before, in order to be "worthy" of Gu Tianyou.

She hopes that her future lover will love the real her, not the abstract version of herself.

Bo Yuxiu nodded heavily. "I know you've been divorced, your biological mother is in the hospital, and your father is in jail. I know all of that. But I still want to marry you."

Shen Yao's heart trembled slightly.

So, this man knew all along.
