It's just that he doesn't understand why Ling Yan hasn't married him yet, even though she has a child, and why she wants to use him as a shield.
Gu Xichen's tall body swayed and he almost lost his balance. He did not expect Ling Yan to introduce this man like this.
Boyfriend, how ironic.
He has been pursuing her for four years, but she has been avoiding him. Now, she introduces this man so calmly, without any hesitation, as if she has recognized him.
Gu Xichen was overwhelmed with jealousy. He really wanted to take Ling Yan away so that she would never see this man again. He wanted to severely cut off their relationship so that they would never see each other again.
But his proud self-esteem prevented Gu Xichen from doing such a rough thing. He just stared at Ling Yan, as if he wanted to see through her soul.
Ling Yan's face was pale, but her eyes did not shy away, she just looked at Gu Xichen calmly.
She knew that at this moment, she and Gu Xichen were really about to break up.
Break it off well, break it off cleanly, his enthusiasm is so hot that he can no longer resist it.
She was afraid of falling, afraid of getting herself involved in a deeper whirlpool.
Ling Yan thought Gu Xichen would do something crazy again, but no, Gu Xichen didn't say a word, he just looked at her sadly, turned around and left.
Ling Yan trembled. She had a bad cold and almost fainted. Zhang Jiayu reached out to hold her arm and stabilize her body.
"Ling Yan, are you okay?" He asked with concern.
Ling Yan's pretty face was as pale as paper, without a trace of blood. She shook her head: "It's not good, I'm dizzy."
Zhang Jiayu quickly called his second uncle to come over and help Ling Yan take a look. The second uncle first took her pulse and said with a solemn brow: "Qi deficiency, anemia, plus a cold, I need an injection."
Ling Yan was dripping with fluids and was sitting on a chair. When the nurse came over to give her an injection, she shivered in pain.
The blood vessels on the back of Ling Yan's hand were very thin. The nurse inserted two needles in succession before the needle hit. Zhang Jiayu frowned as she watched.
After hanging up the needle, Ling Yan leaned back on the chair. Her whole figure lost its vitality and her eyes became hollow. "Ling Yan, can you tell me now about your relationship with Mr. Gu?" Zhang Jiayu asked.
"I have nothing to do with him anymore." Ling Yan smiled bitterly.
"You can't hide it from me. Your three children belong to him, right?" Zhang Jiayu couldn't help but ask.
Ling Yan didn't hide it from him, and she couldn't hide it. Anyone who had met Gu Xichen and the children would believe that they were parent-child, especially her two sons, Ling Feng and Ling Rong, who looked very much alike.
Gu Xichen, Gu Xichen must have been pretty when he was young.
"Yes, but he doesn't know the existence of the children. Can you please keep it a secret for me? I gave birth to the child secretly and the Gu family didn't know about it. But once they find out, the Gu family will definitely snatch the child's custody."
Let’s go.”
"Why don't you marry Gu Xichen? He has a child and he loves you too. I can see that you still love him." Zhang Jiayu frowned. How could there be any bitter loyalty that could make two people who love each other fall apart?
What if love is not taken seriously?
"His grandma doesn't like me, so I can't marry him. Even if I bring the child to force the palace to take the throne, his grandma may not like me. Instead of letting him be caught in the middle and in a dilemma, it's better for me to live with the child alone."
A quiet life." Ling Yan's brows were filled with pain and sadness.
Zhang Jiayu looked at her with distress. As a woman raising three children by herself, one can imagine the hardships involved.
"You have to raise three children by yourself. Is it worth it for you to work so hard? Mr. Gu is the father of the children. If the children recognize him, their lives will change dramatically." Zhang Jiayu felt that the children could not
Lack of fatherly love.
Tears instantly fell from the corners of Lingyan's eyes, and her cheeks were stained with sadness. Why didn't she know that if the children recognized each other, they could live a prosperous life, but what about her?
If she had to be separated from her children in the future, she would only be able to reunite with them on Saturdays and Sundays, which would be a nightmare.
"Maybe I'm too selfish. I don't want to be separated from my child, and I don't want to argue with the Gu family over custody rights." Ling Yan laughed at herself sadly.
Zhang Jiayu finally understood the truth of the whole matter. Ling Yan did have selfish motives, but as a mother, she did nothing wrong. Which mother is willing to abandon her child?
"Ling Yan, I really admire you." Zhang Jiayu praised lightly.
"Why?" Ling Yan was confused.
Zhang Jiayu explained the reason: "I admire you for being a qualified and good mother, and I also admire you for abandoning an outstanding man like Mr. Gu. Logically speaking, if it were another woman, she might use her child to gain power, regardless of Mr. Gu's grandma."
You objected and decided to marry him, but you took into consideration the feelings of him and his grandmother and were unwilling to embarrass them..."
Ling Yan bit her lip. In fact, she was not that great or noble. She had thought about marrying Gu Xichen countless times, but when she woke up from her sweet dream, it was a cruel reality. She could only choose reality.
"Ling Yan, if you don't mind it, I can consider starting a family with you, and I will treat your children well. Although I don't have the ability of Mr. Gu, I can still achieve a well-off level," Zhang Jiayu said.
He spoke from his heart.
Ling Yan was startled. She did not doubt Zhang Jiayu's sincerity, but she was embarrassed to agree to it.
"I'm really sorry for taking advantage of you just now. In fact, I have concerns. People like me don't dare to expect to get married for love. Zhang Jiayu, I'm sorry, maybe... I can't agree to you." Ling
Yan also considered Gu Xichen's temperament from a practical perspective. She understood that if she really agreed to marry Zhang Jiayu, with Gu Xichen's extreme temperament, he might come directly to cause trouble.
Zhang Jiayu now has a stable job and a middle-class family. With his conditions, he can choose an unmarried woman on the basis of merit in the future. Why marry her to a single mother with three children? Even if she is willing to marry, then her
Where is the child?
Zhang Jiayu's expression turned anxious: "Are you afraid that I won't treat the children well?"
"No, I just can't worry about you. Time is short and we are no longer children. You should find a woman who has the same sexual interests as you..."
"Ling Yan, after having my ex-wife, I almost despaired of women. Maybe you don't understand me. I actually don't want to find a young and beautiful girl to marry. You are right. We have the same interests. I think you are the one for me.
The ideal person I want is gentle, kind, sensible and considerate." Zhang Jiayu interrupted her hastily.
Ling Yan looked at him sadly, and finally shook her head: "I am not a good match for you, you should match a better woman."
