Gu Zhiyao dialed Lin Yu's number, "Ayu, where are you?"

"I'm at the Poetic and Picturesque area. What's up? Need me? Oh, right, don't you have to go to work?"

"I took half a day off today. Anyway, it's the handover period, so I don't need to go every day."

"Do you want to come over? I have a live stream later, want to come and watch?"

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhiyao got into a taxi and went to the place Lin Yu had mentioned.

The place was still filled with the fragrance of flowers and the songs of birds. Gu Zhiyao looked around at the beautiful surroundings and smelled the faint floral scent, which made her feel much more relaxed.

Lin Yu came over and took her arm. "Sit down quickly, don't tire out my precious godson. Would you like milk or juice, or perhaps warm water?"

"Warm water is fine."

Lin Yu immediately brought over a glass of water.

Gu Zhiyao took a few sips, looked at the setup in front of her, and asked, "How much longer until the live stream starts?"

"Twenty minutes, I'm already very familiar with it, so I don't need to prepare much," Lin Yu replied.

Gu Zhiyao watched as Lin Yu skillfully handled everything, radiating confidence and charm. She felt both envious and gratified.

The people I care about are doing well.

After the live stream ended, Lin Yu packed up her things and sat down next to her. "You don't look too good today. Did something happen?"

Gu Zhiyao then told her about what happened yesterday, but she hadn't yet mentioned He Yi's punishment and abuse of her.

Lin Yu angrily cursed, "What kind of people are they? They all bully others just because they have money! Yao, you're something else! You should have asked for 10 billion or 100 billion. Aren't they rich? Then give it to them! Since you traded your life and health for this marriage, you should live it to the fullest, not a single day less!"

Looking at her furious friend, Gu Zhiyao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Ayu, I still intend to agree to his request and dissolve the marriage ahead of schedule."

"Dissolve the marriage early? Why? Sigh, I know you don't want to put him in a difficult position, but..."

"I went to the hospital today and heard a pregnant woman say..." Gu Zhiyao finally revealed He Yi's behavior last night.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu burst into another tirade of curses, "This beast! What kind of man is he, bullying a woman like this? I curse him to be impotent for the rest of his life!"

“Ayu, you’re right. This marriage is something I almost risked my life for. It’s my lifelong dream, and every day is incredibly precious to me. It’s something that money can’t buy. But now I have something even more precious: my baby.” Gu Zhiyao gently placed her fair hand on her belly, her face radiating maternal love.

"Although he is still very young, I seem to feel his presence. I feel him struggling inside me, trying hard to survive. Therefore, I cannot let anything happen to him. I want to bring him safely into this world and give him a happy life."

Lin Yu knew that Gu Zhiyao was an orphan. Although she didn't say anything usually, she must have felt a lot of grievances, doubts, sadness, and even anger in her heart.

Why did her parents abandon her?

The days spent in the orphanage were undoubtedly difficult.

This makes Gu Zhiyao crave family affection more than most people.

Having been abandoned by her own parents, she cherishes and loves her own children even more, not wanting them to experience the suffering and pain she endured.

Making such a decision must have been a very difficult choice.

One is the man she has loved for ten years, and the other is her own flesh and blood. Giving up either one would be an excruciating pain for Gu Zhiyao, but if she could only choose one, she would definitely choose her child.

Besides, they can only choose children.

Even if Zhiyao wanted to choose He Yi, it wasn't a decision she could make.

This marriage will have to be dissolved sooner or later.

Lin Yu then hugged Gu Zhiyao with heartache and said, "Since you've made up your mind, then do it. I will support whatever choice you make. What are men anyway? Children are the most precious thing. Let that beast He Yi get lost. Let him and Zheng Yuanxi, that bitch, be a perfect match and live happily ever after! I'll give you a wonderful and brilliant life. You are so smart and capable, and your future was bright. But because of him, you gave up everything and made yourself so miserable. It's time to move on, Yao. You have to live for yourself!"

"Well, I should have seen some things clearly a long time ago. Maybe I shouldn't have had these fantasies in the first place. Although I knew him first, God arranged for him and Zheng Yuanxi to be together, which means that he and I are not a real couple." Gu Zhiyao felt as if a piece of her flesh was being cut off.

"But Ayu, even though I know I should wake up from this dream, my heart still aches. It feels like I'm being dissected and sliced ​​into pieces. Ayu, I really love him. I love him so much!"

Seeing Gu Zhiyao collapse into her arms, trembling and heartbroken, Lin Yu felt her heart breaking and was overwhelmed with grief.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Lin Yu took Gu Zhiyao back to her company.

Because there's a meeting to attend.

The meeting was chaired by He Yi, and all members of the Legal Department were required to attend, including Gu Zhiyao.

But she was distracted, her mind completely elsewhere. After finally getting through the meeting, Anxi and Gu Zhiyao headed to the restroom together.

"You look terrible, are you alright? You haven't been busy lately, so how did you end up like this? Are you still recovering from your last cold?" Anxi asked her with concern.

Gu Zhiyao tried to smile, "There might be some aftereffects, but it's nothing, don't worry."

"How can I not worry? The environment abroad will definitely be more complicated in the future, and you work so hard. I'm really worried about you!"

Gu Zhiyao tugged at An Qian's arm and sweetly pouted, "Then please call me more often to encourage me and tell me not to push myself too hard!"

"I don't mind, I'm just afraid you'll be so busy that you won't even answer the phone."

"No, I might not answer other people's calls, but I definitely won't miss yours... Ugh..." Gu Zhiyao said, suddenly feeling nauseous.

Anxi frowned as she looked at her. "You, you're not pregnant, are you?"

Gu Zhiyao froze instantly.

Anxi continued, "The other day when we went out to eat, you felt nauseous from the fishy smell, and lately you've been feeling listless, which matches the signs of early pregnancy. Didn't you say you were trying to conceive? Oh my god, could you really be pregnant? Quick, go buy a pregnancy test. You said you broke up with your boyfriend, if you're really pregnant..."

"It's okay, I'm not pregnant, Sister An, don't overthink it." Gu Zhiyao quickly interrupted An Qian's speculation.

"Not pregnant? Your symptoms clearly indicate that. I've been there, and my symptoms were similar to when I was pregnant with Niu Niu."

"I just had my period last week, it's really not pregnancy, it's just a coincidence," Gu Zhiyao continued to deny.

Hearing this, Anxi couldn't insist any longer. She glanced at Gu Zhiyao thoughtfully and said, "It seems I was overthinking it. Maybe I thought you didn't need to leave if you were pregnant."

Gu Zhiyao smiled gently, lowered her eyes to hide her panic, and was glad that she had gotten away with it.

Little did she know that Quan Xinyu had overheard her conversation with Anxi.

Quan Xinyu immediately remembered that Gu Zhiyao had gone to the gynecologist yesterday.

He wondered if Gu Zhiyao was seeing an obstetrician instead of a gynecologist.

Is she really pregnant?

So the child is Mr. He's?
