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

Bo Yuxiu sent a photo.

In the photo, he is lying on a bed.

He was asleep, with a blonde, blue-eyed woman lying next to him.

The woman took a selfie in front of the mirror, revealing a very arrogant and smug expression.

Shen Yao's hand holding the phone grew colder and colder.

They even started to tremble.

She felt her heartbeat suddenly increase in size.

Boom boom boom!

My heart is pounding.

She took a deep breath and pressed her icy hands against her chest.

With difficulty, she sent Bo Yuxiu a simple "?".

A short while later, Bo Yuxiu replied to the message.

“I am Bo Yuxiu’s ex-girlfriend, his first love, and we got back together.”

Upon seeing this sentence, Shen Yao stood there stunned for a long time.

After a long while, she finally slumped weakly against the sofa.

She had many questions for Bo Yuxiu, but she held back.

Don't type, just call and ask.

Shen Yao felt that sometimes it was difficult to express herself clearly when typing on WeChat.

She wanted to hear Shen Yao's explanation for the matter in person.

Mustering her courage, she dialed Bo Yuxiu's number.

The call was answered quickly.

However, it wasn't the person who answered the call.

She was a foreign woman.

The foreign woman, speaking in broken Mandarin, said, "You must be Shen Yao. Bo Yuxiu is sleeping right next to me. Should I wake him up?"

Even though I was mentally prepared.

Hearing the foreign woman say that, she still felt a chill run down her spine.

"No, that's it."

Before the woman could even speak, Shen Yao hung up the phone.

She didn't even know what she was afraid of.

I barely slept a wink all night.

When I woke up in the morning, I still hadn't seen Bo Yuxiu's reply.

In March, it no longer snows in Shenzhen.

Instead, a gentle spring rain began to fall.

The damp, cold air, carrying a chilly wind, pounded against my face, feeling icy cold.

Shen Yao was wearing a brown trench coat and a light-colored scarf as she walked in the rain.

She didn't have an umbrella.

She has left Bo Yuxiu's company and started working at her own company.

People in the company only knew her as a highly skilled academic researcher; they didn't know she was the boss.

Her private laboratory is located on the top floor of the laboratory building.

Every floor of this building was used for experiments.

Each floor of the laboratory is responsible for a different project.

With the development of science and technology, medical technology is also constantly evolving.

Shen Yao is able to develop more anti-cancer drugs and drugs for intractable diseases during her lifetime.

As soon as she entered the laboratory, she started working.

All joys and sorrows were left behind.

These tedious, repetitive experiments, along with the numerous calculations required, immersed Shen Yao in her work.

By the time she finally finished an experiment, it was already dark.

As I walked out of the company, it was still raining.

The humidity in the air reached 70%.

But it was also very cold.

Shen Yao didn't drive here today.

For some reason, she deliberately took longer to get home.

As she walked out of the company campus, she heard car horns behind her.

Turn around and look.

It's a car honking its horn at itself.

The lights were so bright that Shen Yao couldn't see the license plate number.

It wasn't until the car pulled up in front of her that Shen Yao realized it was a Maserati.

The car window was rolled down, and Gu Tianyou lowered it.

"Get in the car, I'll treat you to hot pot."

Shen Yao loves hot pot.

She felt that once the hot pot was boiling, the steaming heat and the warm, homey atmosphere made it the most cozy place.

But the thought of eating with Gu Tianyou made her reluctant.

"I'm inviting you to dinner because of Grandpa."

"I truly want to thank you."

As he spoke, Gu Tianyou opened the car door, stood to the side, and gestured for Shen Yao to enter.

Chen Jie quickly got out of the driver's seat and smiled at Shen Yao, "Ms. Shen, you've seen the changes in President Gu recently. He really just wanted to thank you; he had absolutely no ill intentions."

Hearing Chen Jie say this, Shen Yao looked at Gu Tianyou.

She noticed that Gu Tianyou's gaze was more peaceful and gentle than ever before.

She eventually agreed.

Chen Jie chose a very authentic Chongqing hot pot restaurant.

Shen Yao and Gu Tianyou are both not very good at eating spicy food.

The two of them ordered a hot pot with two broths.

Gu Tianyou, being a true gentleman, let Shen Yao order first.

After Shen Yao finished ordering, he unfolded the apron used for hot pot and was about to put it on her.

"No need, I can do it myself."

Shen Yao took the bib and put it on herself.

Gu Tianyou then brought her a steamed, damp towel, hand towel, and a hairband to tie her hair.

His thoughtfulness made Shen Yao feel very uncomfortable.

Why does this man suddenly seem like a completely different person?

Before I could think any further, a waiter brought over a steaming bowl of hot pot broth.

Gu Tianyou reminded Shen Yao, "Be careful not to get burned."

Shen Yao quickly turned to the side and asked the waiter to bring the hot pot to the table.

After the hot pot boiled, Gu Tianyou took the serving chopsticks and spoon, rinsed the meat slices, and thoughtfully placed them in Shen Yao's small bowl.

"Mr. Gu, I can do it myself, you can eat yours."

"Don't you love eating fatty beef the most? Hurry up and eat it while it's hot."

Gu Tianyou ignored Shen Yao's refusal and insisted on cooking meat for her.

He didn't stop until Shen Yao's small bowl was almost full.

Shen Yao was somewhat taken aback by his thoughtfulness and gentlemanly manners.

If this had happened when she still loved this man, the atmosphere at the dinner table might have been much happier.

However, Shen Yao now felt completely lost.

After all these years, she had really gotten used to Gu Tianyou's indifference and neglect towards her.

"Gu Tianyou, stop putting food on my plate, I can't finish it."

When she saw the man putting more food into her bowl, Shen Yao finally couldn't hold back anymore.

She was really stuffed.

If I eat any more, I'll probably get indigestion.

Gu Tianyou nodded when he saw that she seemed to be really full.

"Okay, okay, I won't give you any more meat." With that, he started blanching some vegetables.

Shen Yao: "......"

Some people say that eating delicious food can make them happy when they are unhappy.

After finishing the hotpot, Shen Yao felt instantly refreshed, and her mood improved considerably.

So much so that when Gu Tianyou asked if she wanted to have some wine, Shen Yao nodded.

After they had eaten their fill, they each poured themselves a drink and clinked glasses.

How have you been lately?

Gu Tianyou looked at Shen Yao, who was drinking, and asked her this question.

Shen Yao's drink got stuck in her throat, and she almost spat it out.

In the past, Gu Tianyou never cared about her.

Let alone showing concern, not even being sarcastic or scolding her is already a good thing.

Over the years, he had verbally abused Shen Yao several times because of Ye Yingying.

This man is now treating her to hot pot and showing her concern, acting like a perfect gentleman.

Shen Yao was not used to it at all.

"Cough cough." Shen Yao managed to swallow the wine.

She frowned as she looked at the handsome man in front of her, who was as handsome as ever.

"Gu Tianyou, don't be so nice to me, I'm not used to it."
