Quan Jin looked coldly at Sheng Yi, who was putting on an act: "Are you done? You know I ordered takeout, just randomly too, and yet you have so many demands?"
Sheng Yi: "You have such a big mouth!"
Chi Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm down: "I’m sorry, I’ll be more careful next ti."
"That’s more like it. Even if you’re trying to please and bribe, you should show so sincerity. Also, I need to remind you, if you’re buying drinks like this, girls tend to prefer milk tea." What’s so good about coffee anyway? Besides, her show has wrapped up, she doesn’t need coffee to keep her energized.
Chi Yu remained expressionless, maintaining a proper stance: "My apologies, Miss Sheng Yi, I didn’t consider it thoroughly. I’ve never bought milk tea for girls, but my Yuanyuan only likes coffee. I’m just used to buying it."
Sheng Yi chuckled: "That statent of yours just improved my impression of you a bit from what it was before. Let’s pick a place to sit and talk, this isn’t a good place for a conversation."
Quan Jin turned away.
As they got in the car and saw Sheng Yi still standing there, he glanced at her: "Didn’t you say to find a place to talk? Get in the car."
Sheng Yi’s face was full of extre disbelief: "Now I understand why you can only be an ex-boyfriend and ex-husband."
Chi Yu: "..."
After learning from Sheng Yi about so matters between Gu Yuan and her mother, Chi Yu left silently.
After losing his mory, he indeed forgot everything related to Gu Yuan, but he was able to fall in love with Gu Yuan’s face again, which was enough to show that he truly loved her before.
The car accident investigation had been ongoing for so long, yet no clear conclusion had been reached.
However, one thing was clear: he had co back from Sydney and got into a car accident on the way ho.
Perhaps, there was a connection between his matters with Gu Yuan and Sydney.
That night, Chi Yu booked a flight ticket and packed his luggage to go to Sydney.
But this ti, he wasn’t so reckless just leaving; he told Yi Shu about his itinerary, then set off for Sydney.
...
Far away in Sydney, Gu Yuan had no idea that Chi Yu had also co to Sydney.
She was overwheld dealing with Wen Fei’s ss.
The large castle felt empty and cold, as if no one lived there.
In a closed room—
"I’ll ask you again, when are you going back to the country with ?"
Gu Yuan had been there for a day and a night, spending half of that ti by Wen Fei’s side.
This proud woman once led a glamorous life, but now she was unrecognizable. In less than a year, she had lost over thirty pounds.
She weighed less than seventy pounds now.
Frighteningly thin.
Gu Yuan didn’t know what despair Wen Fei had gone through during this ti. When she last brought Chi Yu to Sydney, Wen Fei’s condition had already deteriorated. She didn’t expect she would torture herself into a ghostly state so quickly, neither dead nor alive.
At this mont, the woman curled up on the sofa was Wen Fei.
The carefully grood hair now had graying temples, and the well-cared-for skin looked waxy and yellow. The fingernails that used to be painted with bright nail polish were now dirty, and her hands had beco withered. Those dazzlingly beautiful eyes, for which she was once famous, were now empty and lifeless.
Wen Fei didn’t look at Gu Yuan standing in front of her, just said: "After I die, just take my ashes back to the country."
Gu Yuan laughed in frustration: "When you die? Then just die already. You don’t die and you’re wasting my ti—what do you an by that? Just want to waste ti with , right?"
These words shouldn’t be spoken by a daughter to her biological mother.
But to Gu Yuan, Wen Fei could no longer be considered her biological mother.
Curled up on the sofa, Wen Fei slowly lifted her head. Because she was too thin, her cheeks protruded and her eyes were deeply sunken, making her look ghostly, without exaggeration.
She said: "Once I’m dead, I can see your father."
Wen Fei’s voice grew hoarser, her emotions clearly becoming erratic again.
She asked Gu Yuan with jumbled words: "Do you think, when I’m dead, your father will co to take ?"
Her voice rose and fell suddenly, appearing lucid but her mind was actually not clear, as she frequently hallucinated.
When her hallucinations were mild, she would mutter to herself; when severe, she would wave her hand wildly in the air, crying and shouting fierce nonsense, and even, in her own room, do things she was completely unaware of, like self-harming.
