Love is a mistake that cannot be escaped

I immediately dialed Lu Mingxuan's number, trying to make my voice sound calm: "Mingxuan, do me a favor..."

An hour later, I drove alone to the dock warehouse.

As soon as I got out of the car, a pungent smell of gasoline hit me. I covered my mouth and nose, suppressing my fear, and walked step by step into the depths of the warehouse.

"Fu Yan, you've finally arrived." The warehouse was dimly lit, and a familiar figure was tied to a chair—it was Gu Yichen.

When he saw me, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

"Gu Yichen, how are you? Did they do anything to you?"

I asked anxiously, but he pulled me into his arms.

"Yan Yan, don't be afraid, I'm fine."

His voice was deep and powerful, as if it had given me a shot of adrenaline.

"Let her go!"

A cold voice rang out, and I then realized that there were several tall, burly men in black standing in the warehouse, all holding weapons and exuding a dangerous aura.

"What do you want?"

I forced myself to remain calm and asked.

"We don't want anything, we just want to ask Mr. Gu to come with us."

The leader of the men in black sneered and approached me.

"Don't even think about it!"

I instinctively shielded Gu Yichen behind me.

"Then don't blame us for being rude!"

As the man in black spoke, he stepped forward to grab me.

"stop!"

Just then, the warehouse door was suddenly kicked open, and blinding light shone in. I saw Lu Mingxuan and... Gu Yichen?

"elder brother!"

Gu Yichen shouted excitedly, and a group of police officers followed him, quickly surrounding the man in black.

"Yan Yan, are you alright?"

Lu Mingxuan ran to my side and asked with concern.

"I'm fine, Mingxuan, thank you."

I shook my head, my heart filled with gratitude.

"Fool, why are you being so polite with me?"

Lu Mingxuan smiled and turned to look at the men in black who were being controlled by the police. "Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

"Hmph, want to know? Dream on!"

The man in black was very stubborn and refused to say anything.

Just then, Gu Yichen suddenly spoke up: "I already know about the person behind you."

His gaze was deep and cold, as if he could see through everything.

"who is it?"

I pressed him for details, but he held my hand tightly, giving me a sense of reassurance. "It's alright, it's all over."

His tone was gentle yet carried an undeniable firmness.

The sirens faded into the distance, and the warehouse returned to calm, leaving only him and me standing amidst the chaos.

I looked up at him, backlit, and his resolute face showed an unprecedented ease and relief.

"Gu Yichen,"

My nose stung with tears, and all the grievances and lingering fear welled up in my heart, leaving me choked with sobs and unable to speak.

He pulled me into his arms and gently patted my back, as tenderly as if he were coaxing a child: "It's all in the past. I will never let you get hurt again."

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on us, casting long shadows. At that moment, I truly felt that the barriers between us, which had been separated by thousands of miles, had finally collapsed completely, leaving only the warmth of our embrace.

The wedding came as scheduled.

Standing beneath the stained-glass windows of the church, sunlight streamed through the colorful glass, making my white dress appear dreamlike.

"Auntie is so beautiful!"

The adorable little girl, dressed in a pink princess dress and wearing a flower crown, looked like a cute little angel. She held onto my skirt, tilted her little face up, and exclaimed in her sweet, childlike voice.

I smiled and picked her up, kissing her on her chubby cheek: "Thank you, baby, you're the prettiest flower girl today too!"

"Ahem," came a light cough from behind, feigning displeasure. "Yan Yan, you're biased. What about me?"

I turned around and saw him in a black suit, standing tall and straight, with a doting smile on his lips.

The afterglow of the setting sun bathed him in golden light, and for a moment, I seemed to see that spirited young man from years ago.

"Yeah, you look handsome today too!"

I smiled and stepped forward, taking his arm, my heart overflowing with happiness and contentment.

As the church bells rang and the melodious music played, we held hands and slowly walked towards the shore of happiness.

The adorable baby followed behind us, scattering flower petals along the way, and his bright smile became the most touching scene at the wedding.

Lu Mingxuan, dressed in a black suit, stood in the crowd, looking exceptionally tall and handsome, a far cry from his usual carefree attitude.

His deep gaze followed the bridesmaid's figure; she was his childhood sweetheart, Su Qing.

Su Qing wore a light purple dress that accentuated her tall figure, making her appear even more elegant. She had a faint smile on her face, but it couldn't hide the hint of loneliness in her eyes.

After the ceremony, Lu Mingxuan walked over to Su Qing with a glass of champagne, raised his glass and lightly touched hers, "Congratulations, you look beautiful today."

Su Qing forced a smile, her lips twitching slightly. "Thank you."

"you……"

Lu Mingxuan hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered his courage and asked, "Are you really going to leave? To such a far place, when will I be able to see you again?"

Su Qing was silent for a moment, then downed the champagne in her glass in one gulp. "Mingxuan, you know I've always wanted to see the world, and this is a rare opportunity..."

"But……"

"No buts."

Su Qing interrupted him, her eyes slightly red, "Shouldn't we both start a new life?"

Lu Mingxuan wanted to say something more, but then he saw Gu Yichen slowly pushing his wheelchair over and stopping in front of Su Qing. He looked up, a gentle smile on his handsome face, "Su Qing, thank you for being willing to walk with me."

Su Qing knelt down and gently took Gu Yichen's hand, her eyes filled with determination instead of loneliness. "Yichen, we'll walk this path together from now on."

Watching them walk away hand in hand, Lu Mingxuan felt as if his heart had been hollowed out, leaving him feeling utterly empty.

He understood that some feelings were destined to remain buried in his heart, becoming the most beautiful memories.

As the wedding festivities gradually subsided, Gu Yichen and I embarked on our honeymoon trip to Santorini.

Under the azure sky and sea, we held hands and strolled on the white sand, letting the sea breeze caress our faces, leaving behind the warmth of happiness.

"Yan Yan, do you remember when we first came here?"

He gently stroked my long hair, my reflection shimmering in his deep eyes.

I nestled in his arms, my thoughts drifting back to three years ago, when we were just two strangers, but an unexpected encounter brought our fates together.

"Of course I remember, back then we..."

"...We didn't know each other back then, and you mistook me for a girl who was hitting on you."

I smiled and took his words, my tone carrying a hint of sweet nostalgia.

"Yes, I never imagined back then that the girl I misunderstood would become the most important person in my life."

He chuckled softly and pulled me into his arms.

After our honeymoon, we returned to the Gu family home. Gu Yichen continued to dedicate himself to his business empire, while I chose to be the woman behind him, managing everything at home so he could focus on his career without any worries.

We attended various banquets together, received blessings from everyone, and lived a peaceful and happy life.

A few years later, I became pregnant.

When he heard the news, Gu Yichen was as happy as a child. He canceled all his work and stayed by my side without leaving for a moment, afraid that something might happen to me.

Ten months later, our daughter was born and we named her Gu Nianyan.

Looking at the exquisitely beautiful little baby in the swaddling clothes, my heart was filled with emotion. It was the fruit of our love and the continuation of our happiness.

Gu Nianyan's arrival brought much joy to our lives.

Watching her grow up day by day, from babbling to taking her first steps, and then carrying her schoolbag to school, my heart is filled with joy and pride.

However, fate always seems to play tricks on us. One night, Gu Nianyan suddenly developed a high fever. After being taken to the hospital, the doctor told us that she had a rare blood disease and needed a bone marrow transplant to survive.

I suddenly felt dizzy and everything went dark.

Gu Yichen held my hand tightly; his hand was icy cold, yet it gave me boundless strength.

"Don't be afraid, Yan Yan, we will definitely find a suitable bone marrow donor to save Nian Nian's life."

His voice was deep and firm, but it couldn't hide the tremor in his tone.

However, things are far more complicated than we imagined.

We visited numerous hospitals and tried various methods, but we still couldn't find a bone marrow match for Gu Nianyan.

My heart sank. Could it be that my daughter is really going to...?

Just when I was about to despair, Gu Yichen suddenly received a phone call.

He held his phone, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. Finally, he took a deep breath and said to the person on the other end of the line, "Okay, I agree."
