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

Chapter 467 Okay, I'll turn myself in!

Suddenly, she was pulled into a firm embrace.

The familiar scent made her know who it was without turning around.

Gu Zhiyao instinctively struggled, but couldn't break free at all, so she gave up and continued to look at the old lady while shedding tears.

Until you are completely calm.

He Yi put his arm around her, walked out of the bedroom, and sat down on the sofa in the living room. He gently wiped away the tears on her face.

Gu Zhiyao stared at him intently and asked, "Did you hear what Grandma He said just now? You insisted that I come here just for this?"

He Yi's expression froze for a moment, then he stared at her intently without saying a word.

Gu Zhiyao continued coldly and angrily, "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you feeling guilty and not knowing how to refute me? He Yi, I won't fall into your trap. First it was Niu Niu, and now it's Grandma He. Do you think you can convince me like this? You're not a real man. Using children and the elderly, what kind of person are you!"

"If I said I knew nothing about these things, would you believe me?" He Yi finally spoke. "Niu Niu is very dependent on me, which surprised me and made me very touched and happy. I did think that we are bound by our child, and that there was a good chance you would come back to me, but I never thought of taking advantage of them. As for Grandma, I never thought of that either. I brought you here today, just as I told you, to cheer you up and stop you from being so sullen. I didn't expect to hear Grandma say these things. Grandma has loved me since I was little and has done a lot for me, I know that, but I didn't know I would make her so worried."

He Yi turned his gaze away from Gu Zhiyao's face and looked around. Many distant yet vivid memories flashed through his mind: his grandmother's companionship and care for him; how she would criticize and educate him when he made mistakes; and how she would praise and encourage him generously when he did well.

He had always taken all of this for granted, assuming that his grandmother would stay with him forever. But today, after hearing what she said, he realized that those days were numbered. His grandmother was growing old and might leave him at any moment.

Even at the very last moment of her life, she was still worried about him.

He Yi's eyes also welled up with tears. He looked at Gu Zhiyao with blurred vision and continued in an almost pleading tone, "Gu Zhiyao, how can I erase your painful memories and make you fall in love with me again? I really don't want Grandma to worry about me like this anymore. I'm such a grown-up. I should be the one protecting her, but I still make her worry every day. Please forgive me, please give me another chance. I really don't know what to do to make you come back to me, Gu Zhiyao. Tell me? Tell me what to do? If possible, I'm willing to give my life for your love."

Gu Zhiyao froze upon hearing these words. Looking at his tearful eyes and his grief and pain, which was a rare sight, she suddenly felt at a loss and her mind went blank.

He Yi squatted down in front of her, one hand resting on her leg, the other stroking her face as he continued to plead.

Gradually, Gu Zhiyao looked away, not wanting to see this scene anymore, but it was only for a moment. She couldn't help but look at him again, and finally she said, "He Yi, get up, don't be like this, get up quickly."

He Yi shook his head and continued to look at her pleadingly.

A moment later, a bitter, sorrowful smile suddenly appeared on his handsome face as he murmured, "In this world, everything truly has cause and effect. Back then, I watched Zheng Yuanxi hurt you time and time again without decisively stopping or dealing with her. Now I have to pay the price for it. It's my own fault! Gu Zhiyao, you once said that as long as I turned myself in and admitted that I raped you, you would forgive me. Does that still count now?"

"What... are you going to do?" Gu Zhiyao's expression froze.

He Yi said to himself, "Well, I should turn myself in. If that makes you feel better, then I'll do it."

After saying that, he stood up, gave her a deep look, and turned to leave.

Gu Zhiyao, having recovered her senses, quickly caught up with him and grabbed him, "He Yi, what are you talking about? Explain yourself! Where are you going?"

Her voice trembled as she stared intently at him, already vaguely understanding his meaning. She then growled, "You think I'll forgive you for doing this? Yes, I did say that, but I don't need it now!"

"You don't need it? But you clearly said so. Gu Zhiyao, you're not keeping your word? So you're not planning to forgive me for the rest of your life? No, you can't go back on your word. I'm going to turn myself in. Wait for me to come out."

"Are you crazy, He Yi? If you dare to step out of here, don't even think about me forgiving you!" Gu Zhiyao roared even more angrily. "Don't you love Chenchen and Niuniu the most? What will they think if they know they have a rapist as their father? So, you give up on this idea right now! Don't think I'll soften my heart just because of this! I won't!"

He Yi stopped, turned around to look at her, and then walked back to her step by step.

After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Don't worry, when Chenchen and Niuniu grow up and understand, I will explain to them and let them know that all of this is what Dad deserves, that Dad has to turn himself in and take responsibility for his actions. It has nothing to do with you, and they won't blame you. Gu Zhiyao, I can't turn back time and prevent what happened to you from happening. I can only do what you want to see. Don't worry, I won't appeal. If my sister and grandma say anything to you, don't pay any attention. I'll take care of everything."

Gu Zhiyao was furious. Seeing his resigned look, she just wanted to give him a good beating!

What is he doing? What tricks is he playing?

Did he think that this would earn her forgiveness?

No.

He Yi, I will never forgive you. These self-inflicted wounds won't work on me, so don't even think about using them again!

"Dad? Mom?" Suddenly, a surprised cry broke the silence.

It's Niu Niu!

She rushed to them, looked up at them, and asked, "Dad, where are you going? What does turning yourself in mean?"

He Yi was taken aback, and Gu Zhiyao's expression also changed.

After a few seconds, He Yi squatted down, helped the little girl up and said, "Daddy made a mistake and has to take legal responsibility. Daddy may not be able to see you for a while. You have to be good with Mommy and listen to her. No matter what happens, you can't argue with Mommy or say anything that will hurt her, okay? In this world, the person who loves you the most is Mommy. She loves you even more than Daddy."

“Dad, I don’t understand what you’re saying. Why can’t you see me?” Niu Niu shook her head and said, “You promised me that even if you’re busy with work, you would fly to Canada to see me often. Or, I’ll ask Mom to move back to China.”

Looking at his emotionally agitated daughter, He Yi didn't know what to say next.
