After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

The shop assistant stared in disbelief, then exclaimed, "My goodness, this is simply the most beautiful bride I've ever seen! Miss Gu, do you know that the day you came to order your wedding dress, there was another very beautiful woman and her fiancé looking at wedding dresses, named... Miss Zheng? We were all amazed by how stunning she looked in her wedding dress, but you are even more beautiful than her!"

Gu Zhiyao's smile froze for a moment, and Lin Yu quickly said, "Of course, our Zhiyao is the best in the world."

"Yes, yes, I think this wedding dress fits you perfectly, it's a perfect match for you, there shouldn't be any alterations needed. By the way, have you set your wedding date yet? Our boss is hoping we can come over on the day to take some photos to promote our shop. Don't worry, we won't use the photos indiscriminately, they'll just be displayed in the shop. As for the cost, we can also give you some money." The clerk continued.

Gu Zhiyao remained silent. Lin Yu said, "It's not decided yet. We'll tell you when we decide."

"Sure, no problem. You have my phone number, so feel free to contact me anytime. If you need any help with the wedding preparations, just let us know, and we'll do our best to help."

"Well, we'll talk about it later."

After trying on the wedding dress, Gu Zhiyao realized there was nothing that needed improvement. She prepared to take it off, but before doing so, she couldn't help but look at herself in the mirror. As she looked, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

He Yi?

How did I end up seeing him here?

She had dreamed of choosing a wedding dress with him, and then trying it on for him to see when it was finished, which is why she had this illusion.

Gu Zhiyao, are you possessed?!

Gu Zhiyao gave a self-deprecating laugh, but the laugh froze.

She seemed to be seeing things correctly; it wasn't a fantasy, but the real him, and besides him, there was also Zheng Yuanxi!

Gu Zhiyao turned around almost immediately, and then her eyes met his deep, dark gaze.

Her breathing stopped instantly!

The person reflected in the mirror was indeed He Yi. Zheng Yuanxi then remembered that there was one more detail in the wedding dress that needed to be changed, so she asked He Yi to come along. However, He Yi did not expect to run into Gu Zhiyao.

When he first saw her back, he felt a strange sense of familiarity, but he never thought it was her until he got closer and saw her face clearly in the mirror.

What is she doing?

Why would you wear clothes like that?

Is she getting married?

Who will you marry?

He Yi didn't realize that his mood had suddenly soured.

At the same time, Zheng Yuanxi was also shocked, feeling as if she had been struck by lightning.

She wasn't curious or surprised that Gu Zhiyao would wear a wedding dress, but rather that Gu Zhiyao looked absolutely stunning in it, captivating even to herself, a woman! She even recalled how she herself looked in a wedding dress and couldn't compare to Gu Zhiyao!

Therefore, she was extremely jealous. She even regretted coming here today and letting He Yi see Gu Zhiyao's stunning beauty and captivating charm!

She immediately tried to pull He Yi away and turn back.

However, she knew it was impossible, and besides, her innate nobility prevented her from doing so. So she quickly glanced at He Yi's face and unconsciously tightened her grip on his arm.

He Yi turned his face and smiled slightly at her.

"Shall we go in?" Zheng Yuanxi said casually.

The bridal shop has a dedicated VIP room; as one of the wealthiest families in Yuncheng, they naturally enjoy this treatment.

Led by a staff member, the two headed towards the VIP room.

On Lin Yu and Gu Zhiyao's side, Lin Yu put her arm around Gu Zhiyao's shoulder and looked at her with worried eyes.

I actually ran into He Yi and Zheng Yuanxi!

That despicable couple really knows how to stab someone in the back; they've stabbed Zhiyao in the heart time and time again!

Although Zhiyao seemed fine, Lin Yu knew that she must be feeling terrible inside, and might even be on the verge of a breakdown!

Thinking of this, Lin Yu grabbed Gu Zhiyao's hand tightly again.

Gu Zhiyao smiled and said, "Ayu, I'm fine, really fine."

“Okay, let’s change out of the wedding dress first, I’ll help you,” Lin Yu said.

Enter the dressing room, take off your wedding dress, have the shop assistant pack it up, and then leave the wedding dress shop.

Lin Yu drove Gu Zhiyao home. The scene from earlier kept replaying in her mind, and she felt increasingly upset. She kept holding Gu Zhiyao's hand, while Gu Zhiyao smiled at her nonchalantly, "Yu, just focus on driving. It's not good to hold the steering wheel with one hand."

Lin Yu glanced at her sadly a few more times, then put her hands back on the steering wheel.

After returning home and putting away the wedding dress, Lin Yu went downstairs for dinner. She talked about the case she had been working on that day, and then recounted some interesting stories from her live stream. She didn't mention anything about the wedding dress again, as if the incident that afternoon had never happened.

After dinner, everyone took a shower at home. Lin Yu gently stroked Gu Zhiyao's face and said, "Get some rest. Your brain has been overloaded lately because of this case. You need to catch up."

"Yes. You too, Ayu. Making money is important, but you must take care of your health, you know? Money is just an external thing, my dear Ayu, you must be well!"

"I know, and you need to understand that too, right? Come on, let's go to sleep."

Perhaps she was really too tired, Gu Zhiyao fell asleep quickly. Lin Yu couldn't fall asleep for a long time and kept watching Gu Zhiyao silently. When she saw Gu Zhiyao suddenly frown, she reached out and gently smoothed her brows. When she saw Gu Zhiyao's lips slightly parted as if she was having a bad dream, she hugged Gu Zhiyao tightly.

Then, she had an idea.

The next day, when Gu Zhiyao woke up, she saw a message from Lin Yu saying that she had gone out and that she should eat breakfast by herself.

Gu Zhiyao did have nightmares all night. In fact, her sleep has been poor lately, and she always has all sorts of nightmares, some related to the case and some related to He Yi.

Last night, she dreamed that she and He Yi were having a wedding. She was wearing the wedding dress she had brought back yesterday. Everyone looked at her with amazement, and even He Yi was stunned, his eyes filled with a tenderness she had never seen before.

But gradually He Yi's gentle and handsome face turned cold. He stepped forward, grabbed her, and angrily questioned, "Who are you? Why are you pretending to be Yuan Yuan? Where did you hide Yuan Yuan?"

He struck without mercy, and she felt waves of pain. Struggling, she cried out, "Brother He Yi, let me go! You're hurting me, Brother He Yi..."

"Shut up! Who gave you permission to call yourself that? What are you? You think you can fool me by impersonating Yuanyuan? You're Gu Zhiyao, aren't you? You despicable, damned woman, you've ruined my relationship with Yuanyuan time and time again. I won't let you get away with this! Take off your wedding dress! This is a wedding dress that only Yuanyuan can wear. Do you even deserve it? Take it off right now, don't get Yuanyuan's wedding dress dirty!"

After he finished speaking, he ripped her wedding dress hard, causing her immense pain. With a ripping sound, the beautiful dress was torn to shreds. She stopped struggling and looked at the tattered dress, feeling as if her own body was being torn apart, the pain making it hard to breathe.

She looked up, staring intently at the man filled with resentment and violence, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls.
