Part Two, *Eastland Sugar* , Chapter 33: Departure

e decide to stay in China afterwards But for him, a subordinate, to ask this question was very sensitive. 。After some thought, Fu Shenyi suddenly said: "President Zhuo, I and Lin Zhi'ao's wedding tomo...Lu Yaoyao lay still on one side of the bed, holding her breath and listening to the sounds coming from the bathroom. She said she didn't want to care about him, but his every move still tugged at her thoughts.

Their bedroom was large, the bathroom being situated off the hallway leading to the cloakroom. Only a faint light filtered through and there wasn't a sound to be heard.

Have you taken a long enough shower

Although she said she didn't want to bother with him, she couldn't help but tiptoe toward the restroom to see what he was doing.

She had only taken a few steps when she saw a car light flash past the bedroom window, followed by the low rumble of a car starting up. She suddenly pushed open the bathroom door.

There's no one inside! Did they leave

Without any thought, she instinctively ran downstairs, driven by instinct to chase after the man and his car.

He ran barefoot downstairs and out of the yard. On that straight road, he could only see his taillights getting smaller and smaller. Where could he catch up

In the pitch black night, she stood in the middle of the road barefoot in a white nightgown, like a lost soul, dazed and disoriented.

Won't he even try to coax her She's so easy to please, just a few sweet words and she'll forget all about anything unpleasant.

She stood stubbornly at the roadside for a long time, waiting for him to come back. In the end, she was completely chilled to the bone, and he didn't even look back.

On my way back, I realized that I had scraped my foot on a stone. It hurt with every step. The noise alerted Cui Ping in the nanny's quarters, who rushed out wearing her coat.

"YoYo, where did you go in the middle of the night"

Cui Ping only thought she was sleepwalking. She looked terrifying, with messy hair and a face as pale as her dress.

The carpet at home is very thick, and my feet finally feel a little more comfortable when I step on it.

"Cuiping, my feet hurt"

"It's broken, could you get me some medicine"

"Good," Cui Ping quickly went to get the medicine. She couldn't guess what was wrong with her, but her tone sounded quite calm.

All the lights on the first floor were turned on. Cui Ping came over with a medicine box and only then saw that she had been crying all along.

Cuiping was terrified. Miss usually had a carefree and sweet appearance, but this was the first time she saw her cry like this.

Lu Yao originally had been holding back her tears, but when the light was turned on, she saw the scratches on her soles and the scar on her ankle, which had become very faint. She thought, perhaps their love was like this scar, fading with time until it disappeared.

The scratch is very minor, just needs a simple treatment.

But Cui Ping saw that she was crying too sadly, "Should I take you to the hospital"

She shook her head and said no, then got up and went upstairs to her room.

The next day, when she woke up and checked her phone, she saw that Gu Ruandong had sent her a message last night. It must have been sent in the bathroom, saying that he had something to do and went out for a while.

She deleted the message without hesitation, got up and put on a bit of heavy makeup, completely covering up her pale complexion and dark circles. She went to work looking bright and beautiful.

As soon as she stepped out of the car, she saw Lu Kuo getting out too. She ignored him and walked straight ahead; she wasn't in the mood to talk to him today.

Result, she took two steps, and her bag strap was pulled by Lu Kuo from behind, dragging her back two steps and standing beside him.

Lu Kuo seemed to be in a good mood. He leaned over and glanced at her, then said in a surprisingly pleasant tone, "You look so nice today, are you going on a date with Gu Ruandong"

Lu YaoYao replied angrily, "You have a date early in the morning"

Lu Kuo didn't mind, continuing to be in a good mood: "I"

"I haven't seen my brother-in-law in a while, I miss him quite a bit. How about we have dinner together tonight"

Lu Kuo smiled mysteriously and said nothing: "Let's talk tonight."

"Let's do it another day, he's really busy lately and doesn't have time." She said that and stopped paying attention to him.

"It's a pity," Lu Kuo said regretfully.

Two people rode the elevator upstairs. When they reached the floor of the entertainment company, Lu Yaoyao just stepped out of the elevator and her cell phone WeChat rang.

She looked down. It was from Lu Kuo. Her mind was filled with question marks, wondering what he was up to. She opened it:

Ruirui said she wanted to tell you herself, but I couldn't wait.

Behind the inexplicable sentence was a picture, which was a maternity examination report from the hospital. Seeing the gestational weeks written on it, she suddenly burst into tears.

"Brother, congratulations."

She replied with blurry eyes, both happy for Lu Kuo and Ruan Ruan, yet with a kind of indescribable sadness.

Actually, that's how marriage is. She has seen too much of it growing up: some start well and end well, some get off early, and some torture each other until the end of their lives.

That morning, she spent it answering phone calls one after another. Ruan Ruan was pregnant, and it felt like her pregnancy was a foregone conclusion in the family as well.

First, Grandpa called and said, "Your brother has finally done something decent this time."

His voice was bright and cheerful, clearly full of genuine joy.

Then she said, "You and Gu Ruandong need to work hard too, I hope our Lu family will have double happiness this year."

Lu Yaoyao replied, "I will do my best."

Then, Mother Gu also called. Compared to Grandfather, she was obviously much more anxious, but she didn't dare to say it directly, only comforting: "Yaoyao, we don't need to rush, we will have it sooner or later."

Lu Yaoyao is still obedient.

She replied skillfully, "Okay."

Gu's mother wanted to say a few more words, but hearing Yaoyao's tone that she didn't want to continue, she hung up.

After hanging up the phone, Mother Gu sighed and lamented for a while. She had just called Cuiping and learned that the young couple had quarreled last night, and Gu Ruan ran away from home in the middle of the night.

Can this be done by humans

I called him several times just now, but he didn't answer any of them. The more I think about it, the angrier I get. Compared to him, YaoYao is such a good girl. She tested me a few times just now, but she didn't complain at all and didn't let on that they had an argument. Gu Ruan Dong really wants to drive me crazy as his mother. All morning, he just wouldn't answer my calls.

His phone buzzed in the corner, lost in the din. He was too weary to hear it. He sat there, his eyes cold and distant, watching the others argue with a detached indifference that bordered on cruelty.

Big Gold is gone.

He has few friends, and those who remain are those who have shared a life-and-death bond. When one friend dies, it feels like a small part of himself also dies.

Xu Ze Fang and several others, filled with rage, were determined to retaliate. They would give their lives to avenge Da Jin. Each of them emanated a murderous aura, their eyes blazing with killing intent, like demons emerging from hell.

"Young Master Gu, you should go back to your peaceful life. We won't stop you. But we're going to avenge Big Gold, and you shouldn't try to stop us either."

Baosang had been silent in the hospital these past few days, not uttering a single word from beginning to end. Until now, she finally spoke: "Gu Ruandong, give me all the materials. Whether I live or die, it has nothing to do with you. I'll handle this myself."

Gu Ruandong's face was very cold. He raised his eyes and swept a circle over the excited crowd in front of him. Wherever his gaze fell, they seemed to be frozen, falling silent.

"Here," he said, his eyes fixed on Baosang. "And then"

You guys wait a bit longer and read it later, sorry!anned.After Xiao Gurulu's emotions calmed down, Lu Yaoyao put him back into Gu Ruandong's arms and let him hold the baby.
