Wen Lan looked at Gu Lian's expression, worried that it would be counterproductive to expose her sad past.
"You have gone through a lot, and it is not easy to get to where you are today. I don't mean to expose your scars. On the contrary, I came to you today to hope that you can think calmly and go back to persuade Achen and let him talk to the old lady.
Size."
Gu Lian said coldly, "In Mr. Wen's eyes, am I so easy to talk to?"
Wen Lan shrugged, "Of course not. In my eyes, Miss Gu is a very difficult opponent."
Gu Lian adjusted her breathing, picked up the cup, and took a sip of soy milk, "Then you shouldn't come to me today."
"I came to you because I am convinced that you love Achen very much," Wen Lan said.
Gu Lian was silent.
Wen Lan raised her eyebrows proudly and said, "According to the actual situation, I seem to be the winner."
She was sure that Gu Lian would definitely advise Lu Zechen. This woman looked cruel but was actually soft-hearted.
Gu Lian's face was expressionless, his breathing slowed down repeatedly, and his chest felt unbearably depressed.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
"What are you doing?"
Gu Lian woke up suddenly and turned around to look.
Lu Zechen approached from a short distance away, and the morning sunlight shone on him, creating layers of golden light.
He quickly came to her side, pulled her up, and stood in front of her, facing Wen Lan like a child.
"Aunt, what do you mean?"
Wen Lan calmly pointed to the breakfast on the table, "Can't you treat Miss Gu to breakfast?"
Lu Zechen frowned, "I've already warned you, stay away from her."
"Why are you so nervous? Auntie can't eat her." Wen Lan said.
Lu Zechen lowered the corners of his mouth, displeasure evident in his words. He turned around and caught a glimpse of the obvious depression on Gu Lian's face.
He ignored Wen Lan's presence, held her shoulders and said softly: "What's wrong?"
Gu Lian's chest felt uncomfortable and she avoided looking away, "It's okay..."
"Nothing's wrong." He was a little annoyed, stretched out his hand to touch her face, and said, "Speak, tell me what she told you."
Wen Lan laughed out loud.
Lu Zechen turned around with a cold face.
Wen Lan met his gaze quietly and said, "What? If I bully her, do you still want to do something to your aunt?"
Lu Zechen remained silent and his attitude was very clear.
Wen Lan stood up and said, "Okay, I didn't bully her."
She picked up her bag and walked out. Passing by Gu Lian, she gave Gu Lian a meaningful look.
Gu Lian pursed her lips and said nothing.
When Wen Lan left, Lu Zechen immediately hugged her, feeling anxious.
After a moment, Gu Lian reached out and hugged him back.
Lu Zechen breathed a sigh of relief and gently stroked her back.
"What did she tell you?"
Gu Lian was silent and told the truth: "Speaking of the child who was aborted before."
Lu Zechen's body stiffened and his heart throbbed slightly.
Before he became a father, he had no idea about children, but after seeing that little guy every year, he already knew what it was like to be a father.
In the days since he reconciled with Gu Lian, he has also thought that if the child was still alive, he would have called him dad long ago.
Gu Lian promised him not to settle old scores, but that child was not an old score, but a scar that would never heal.
He let go of her a little, panic flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Both of them deliberately avoided talking about this matter, and it was not until today that Wen Lan exposed it.
"First... go back," Gu Lian said.
He didn't speak, so she thought for a moment and turned around.
