Don't meet me in your next life.

"There's no 'but,' you should rest first," Gu Yiran interrupted her. "It's the weekend, I'm not in a rush."

"I......"

"Alright, I'll go out for a bit."

Before Xiang Yi could refuse, he had already turned and left.

As Xiang Yi watched his retreating figure, she felt even more guilty.

During this time, her feelings were also very complicated.

On one hand, she wanted to escape and dared not face all of this, but on the other hand, she couldn't bear to part with the child.

She didn't know what to do.

But now, his appearance has made her feel an unprecedented warmth and happiness.

A sweet and shy feeling suddenly welled up in her heart.

She reached out and covered her lower abdomen.

She is pregnant with Gu Yiran's child.

She will cherish this child like a treasure.

Xiang Yi closed her eyes, trying to put these chaotic thoughts behind her. All she wanted to do now was to focus on her pregnancy.

"Miss, this package is from you." A waitress entered the room carrying a bouquet of flowers and respectfully handed the roses to Xiang Yi.

Who sent it?

Xiang Yi's gaze swept over the bouquet of vibrant roses, and a strange feeling swept through her heart.

“It’s an unfamiliar number,” the waitress replied.

Xiang Yi accepted the rose.

This is a bouquet of pink roses.

The delicate pink roses were so beautiful and vibrant, radiating a dazzling light in the sunlight.

Xiang Yi took out the scissors and put the roses into the vase.

Vibrant life blossomed at her fingertips, as if carrying a rich and fragrant aroma that delighted her.

As Xiang Yi packed her things and was about to leave the coffee shop, a familiar voice reached her ears.

What are you doing here!

When Gu Yixuan saw Xiang Yiyi, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Xiang Yi felt a tremor in her heart.

What is he doing here?

Gu Yixuan strode closer to her, reached out and pinched Xiang Yiyi's chin, forcing her to look directly at him.

“Don’t tell me you work here?” he sneered.

Xiang Yi frowned but did not answer.

"My affairs are none of your business!"

Xiang Yi coldly shook off his hand.

Gu Yixuan's chest heaved violently with anger, and veins bulged on his forehead.

He stared intently at Xiang Yiyi, his voice icy as he asked, "Did you even listen to what I said?!"

Xiang Yi bit her lip and said stubbornly, "I have the right to choose, and I can take care of myself!"

Gu Yixuan took a deep breath, struggling to suppress his anger, and said, "Yiyi, you can stop worrying about this. Resign now and leave. This is your last chance. If you continue to be stubborn, I won't help you anymore!"

He slammed the door and left after saying that.

Xiang Yi felt a pang of pain in her heart as she looked at the closed door.

She knew that Gu Yixuan was thinking of her.

Although the Gu family didn't approve of her, Gu Yixuan always cared about her, and was even willing to sacrifice his own happiness to protect her...

But she really never intended to hurt Gu Yixuan!

But she knew that he meant what he said.

Xiang Yi gave a bitter smile. What should she do?

The Gu family definitely won't agree.

She can no longer be a burden to Gu Yixuan.

She thought for a moment and then dialed Xiang Zeyu's number.

"Hello." Xiang Zeyu's cold male voice came from the phone.

"I'd like to talk to you, is that alright?"

Xiang Yi's attitude was very sincere, without the slightest hint of joking.

She didn't want to be a burden to Gu Yixuan anymore.

Xiang Zeyu remained silent for a moment.

“Okay,” he said. “I’m at the company now.”

"I'm coming to find you right away." Xiang Yi said, then hung up the phone and quickly changed her clothes.

"Yi Yi, what's wrong?" Aunt Zhang, who had just brought in tea, noticed her pale face and couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"

"Aunt Zhang, I'm sorry, I probably can't have morning tea with you today," Xiang Yi apologized.

Seeing that she looked really unwell, Aunt Zhang quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"I..." Xiang Yi hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

She doesn't want to talk about it right now.

But Aunt Zhang was a kind-hearted person. Seeing her hesitation, she couldn't help but ask with concern, "Is it because of the Gu family?"

"Okay." Xiang Yi nodded. "Aunt Zhang, I have an urgent matter and must leave immediately. Could you please take good care of Xiang Zeyu for me?"

Aunt Zhang nodded. "Don't worry, I will take good care of the young master."

"Thank you."

Xiang Yi gave her a grateful smile, then ran out.

Xiang Zeyu was sitting in the car waiting for her.

Seeing Xiang Yi rush into the car in a panic, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"What happened?"

Xiang Zeyu asked.

"Yixuan is here, I have to leave right away," Xiang Yi said.

Xiang Zeyu's expression immediately turned serious.

His hands on the steering wheel stiffened slightly, his voice low and cold: "Did he contact you, or... did he do something to you?"

"Don't overthink it." Xiang Yi shook her head. "It's my own choice to leave. I don't want to stay here anymore. I need a new life, I need to find a new job!"

Xiang Zeyu hesitated for a long time before slowly starting the car.

"Then I'll take you to find a job."

He said.

Xiang Yi shook her head. "No need. You should go back first. I'll move out in a couple of days, so you don't need to worry about it."

The servants in the Gu family all know the Gu family's rules; they will not allow her to get pregnant and give birth.

Moreover... she didn't want to implicate Gu Yixuan.

"Where are you going?" Xiang Zeyu asked. "I'll take you there."

"Really, it's not necessary. I've made my own decision."

Xiang Yi insisted.

She has to leave now.

However, her insistence clearly could not change Gu Yixuan's mind.

He dropped her off at a hotel, and after stopping the car, he turned to look at her.

Xiang Yi bit her lip and said, "Gu Yixuan, I'm sorry..."

She shouldn't have taken advantage of Gu Yixuan.

She didn't want to drag him down with her.

Before Xiang Yiyi could finish speaking, Gu Yixuan cut her off.

His kiss was domineering and wild, like that of a thirsty lion.

Xiang Yi was so weak from his kisses that she finally collapsed into Gu Yixuan's broad and warm embrace.

Her cheeks were flushed and her breathing was rapid.

"Yi Yi, I love you!"

His deep, husky voice rang in her ear.

Xiang Yiyi's body trembled.

This was the second time Gu Yixuan had said those three words to her.

There were too many obstacles and difficulties between them.

She had fantasized countless times about what sweet words he would say to express his love for her.

But when she actually heard it, she felt heartbroken.

“Gu Yixuan, you…” Xiang Yi raised her head and looked at him.

His obsidian-like pupils reflected her stunning beauty, as if trying to embed it into her soul.

Her heart skipped a few beats.

Gu Yixuan cupped her delicate face in his hands and said earnestly, "Yi Yi, I love you, I love you so much, so you must marry me!"

Xiang Yi was stunned.

Marry him. The phrase doesn't seem to have any special meaning.

However, she knew Gu Yixuan's temperament.

He always meant what he said.

Suddenly, a handsome and elegant face appeared in her mind.

She stared at him blankly.
