What to do when your first love cries and asks for reconciliation?

Chapter 192 Even if they have different paths, they must end up together

However, Su Huai rarely refuted Shen Bozhou.

She shook her head solemnly and said, "This is the Gu family's family affair. Even if the investigation is carried out, what will happen? The Gu family's intention to help Gu Yu with a heart transplant cannot be changed."

After Su Huai finished speaking, Shen Bozhou turned his head and glanced at her.

Just one glance and the pressure of being in a high position for a long time poured out, making it hard to breathe.

Su Huai immediately lowered her head to admit her mistake, but Shen Bozhou interrupted her before she could speak.

“Let me ask you a question…”

"A heart transplant is imminent. If Gu Yu's life comes to an end, are you willing to help the Gu family?"

To help the Gu family is to give one's heart.

Su Huai said without hesitation: "Yes."

"I hope that when that day comes, you can be as decisive as me."

Afterwards, Su Huai expressed to Shen Bozhou another purpose of her visit - the issue of the appointment of the director of the municipal hospital.

In the end, there was nothing much to say, so Shen Bozhou agreed.

But there is a prerequisite, which requires Su Huai to return to the capital by the end of the year.

Returning to the capital means that I can no longer work in the front-line clinical position, and my only job in the future will be drug research and development.

But the remaining six months is enough to complete what she wants to do...

At the end of the conversation, Shen Bozhou said:

"Don't forget, only after you have cleared out the Gu family can you and Gu Yu truly be together in peace."

After the meal, Su Huai took Gu Yu's hand and said goodbye to Shen Bozhou and Ji Qiu.

In fact, it was still early and they could have stayed a little longer.

But considering that the suburbs are still two hours' drive from the city center, Su Huai has become quite sensitive about driving in recent months and would never drive at night if he could avoid it.

So after finishing his meal he said in a hurry that he wanted to go back.

It was not yet seven o'clock, and the afterglow of the setting sun was shining on the earth.

The sunset was beautiful with brilliant rays of light and layers of fiery clouds.

They walked hand in hand on the gravel road leading to the parked car, their backs, one tall and one short, leaning against each other.

"What did your aunt say to you?"

Compared to when he spoke to Shen Bozhou, Su Huai's voice was much gentler.

Gu Yu smiled sweetly: "You said you planted a marigold in the garden."

Then she leaned close to Su Huai's ear and whispered, "And tell me how much you love me."

"oh?"

Su Huai laughed with her, "Then do you know how much I love you?"

Gu Yu shook his head, contrary to his usual behavior: "I don't know."

Just as he was about to express his unhappiness, Su Huai heard a shy laugh next to his ear.

“If you kiss me, I might know.”

“Playing tricks.”

Just as they walked to the side of the car, Su Huai took the initiative to open the passenger door for Gu Yu.

But Gu Yu did not sit down immediately. Instead, he took advantage of someone's inattention and kissed her on the side of the cheek.

Then she hid in the car with a smile on her face, looking well-behaved, as if she was never the one who did the bad thing.

Su Huai chuckled and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just took a deep look at the person sitting upright in the passenger seat.

While driving on the road, even the air in the car was surprisingly quiet, but it was different from the dead silence that could eat away at people. One person was concentrating on driving, while the other was admiring the scenery outside the window, which was particularly warm.

The suburbs are good in every way. The temperature is lower than in the city, the air is fresher, and compared to the tall buildings in the city, the green wheat fields are even more pleasing to the eye.

Gu Yu lowered the car window and sighed as he faced the evening breeze. Even the air was filled with the fragrance of rice ears and soil.

“I wish I could live here forever.”

"You didn't think so before." Su Huai said.

Gu Yu curled his lips, looking resentful. "I know what you want to say. It's nothing more than complaining about how much of a workaholic I am."

The gaze out the window gradually became distant and long, no longer just staring at the emerald green crops.

She said: "That's because... I'm tired of being poor and bullied for a long time, so I want to stand out."

Su Huai knew that Gu Yu's obsession with success could even be described as crazy, and this was first seen in middle school.

She could have lived a pampered life as a daughter, but at the very least, the Gu family should have provided her with the most basic living security since they gave birth to her.

Instead of going hungry and cold, and having to work illegally in the middle of winter to earn a few dozen yuan, they abandoned her in the urban village with the worst security and ignored her.

Gu Yu never said these things.

She endured all the pain and just said, "I have to change my destiny through hard work."

In a sense, Su Huai may not be able to empathize with Gu Yu.

Apart from never feeling maternal love, Su Huai's childhood can be described as being the apple of everyone's eye.

Origin determines class, and environment determines character.

They are like two parallel lines that will never intersect, but at some point, one of them will take the initiative to break the balance.

The parallel line that breaks the balance will face the risk of derailment.

Su Huai was silent for a while, then she said, "I know, so I don't blame you."

I know you left for those seven years because you wanted to work hard on building a good career.

There are too many things in life that we have to do, and it is impossible to have the best of both worlds.

On the eve of graduation, Su Huaiyou asked Gu Yu, and she said, "How about we apply to the same university?"

Gu Yu hesitated for a moment before answering yes.

In fact, Su Huai knew what she was hesitating about, because Gu Yu never wanted to be an ordinary person.

Her childhood experiences made her eager to prove herself, and she was determined to step on those who once looked down on her.

Including her parents and sister.

But Su Huai is just the opposite.

It is obviously unrealistic to want everything and not want to lose anything.

But Su Huai still felt that even if they took different paths, they must end up together.

It was exactly eight o'clock when I got home. It was neither too early nor too late, just the right time to wash up and go to bed to read the paper.

But Gu Yu didn’t have any papers to read. All she could think about was that she had to stay in the master bedroom tonight!

Carefully pushing open the door of the master bedroom, her big watery eyes peeked in through the crack of the door, and then she saw——

Su Huai sat at the end of the bed, holding a notebook.

The only bad thing was that she discovered herself.

Immediately afterwards, a voice that made one laugh and cry came into Gu Yu's ears through the crack in the door from inside the house.

“What do you want to do?”

Seeing that he was caught red-handed, he originally planned to go straight to Su Huai's bed and pretend to be asleep while she was taking a shower, and he would not be able to get rid of her.

Now all the plans have gone to waste.

Gu Yu stood up straight and opened the door in frustration, and said in a seemingly honest manner:

"The weather forecast says there will be thunderstorms tonight. I'm afraid of thunder. Can you stay with me?"

Su Huai recalled that when they lived together in the school dormitory, Gu Yu was indeed afraid of thunder.

Every thunder sounded like a monster baring its fangs and claws in a rainstorm. Raindrops as big as beans poured down from the sky, accompanied by the whistling wind, making the windows crackle.

On nights like this, they squeezed into a small single bed in the dormitory, and Gu Yu curled up in her arms, shivering.

Seeing that Su Huai didn't say anything, he just stared at himself.

Gu Yu couldn't help but feel a little nervous, afraid that his lie would be exposed.

She had never looked at the weather forecast; she just improvised and said whatever came to her mind.

I was really afraid that Su Huai would suddenly take out his cell phone and say, "Wait a minute, let me check the weather forecast."

But in the end, Su Huai said nothing. He just put down the notebook and asked, "Have you taken a shower?"

I must have washed it a long time ago, as soon as I got home.

The weather in Yongdong in early August is really annoying. It feels like entering a steam oven as soon as you leave the air-conditioned room.
