Ji Xiaoyue naturally didn't tell Ye Huanyan why Ling Han didn't come. She selfishly felt that Ling Han didn't know how to cherish what he already had, so he should suffer a little.
After teasing Ye Huanyan a little, she picked up her bag and left. When she passed by Ling Han, she didn't even look at him and sneered, "A good horse doesn't go back to the old pasture. Don't wait anymore. Yan Yan won't come down."
On the other hand, Ye Huanyan stood behind the curtains and stared blankly at the man downstairs.
The man that she would dream of every night.
The man who had hurt her so many times that she was determined to forget him.
The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon, so there wasn't a single person on the road. Gu Sinian's car didn't stop until it reached the building. Ling Han stood under the sun and stared motionlessly at the window on the third floor.
He frowned and glanced at Gu Liu, who was driving. "Send a bottle of water over."
Gu Liu's eyes twinkled with amusement. "Young Master, are you so softhearted now that you've spent so much time with Miss?"
Gu Sinian laughed coldly. "I'm just worried that he'll die from the sun and make Yan Yan sad."
This kind of person deserved to live well and in pain.
After he said this, he got out of the car and walked towards the building without looking back.
Gu Liu took out a bottle of ice water from the fridge in the car and ran under the camphor tree in the hot sun to hand the water to Ling Han.
He was being kind, but all he got in return was, "No, thanks."
Gu Liu frowned.
Gu Sinian had just walked into the building when he heard this. He turned around and strode over to Ling Han coldly.
He was two to three centimeters taller than Ling Han, and his silver hair shone brightly under the sun. His entire aura was many times colder than Ling Han's frail appearance.
"I'm afraid this kind of trick doesn't suit you."
Ling Han's face was pale. He glanced at Gu Sinian. "Tell Yan Yan that I really want to start over with her. I hope she can give me another chance."
"Oh? Opportunity? "Gu Sinian sneered." What kind of opportunity? "
"Anything is fine as long as she's by my side."
"I'm by your side, but my heart isn't with you."
"Then I will think of a way to get her heart back."
Although his face was pale, his tone was firm and unquestionable.
Gu Sinian pondered for a moment and said, "You're better off saying it than singing."
Gu Liu looked at his boss, then at Ling Han, who was sweating profusely. He hesitated for a while, then put the water in his hand on the ground. "Well, you can drink it yourself if you're thirsty. I've delivered it to you."
In the apartment, Ye Huanyan made some honeysuckle tea to detoxify the poison. Then, she brought it to Gu Sinian.
He sat on the sofa and looked at the pot of tea in front of him. Then, he looked at Ye Huanyan thoughtfully.
"Yan Yan, he's downstairs."
"Oh," Ye Huanyan responded indifferently. Then, she picked up the novel next to her and turned a page.
"Actually, if I put myself in your shoes, I hope you can give him a chance."
Gu Sinian's voice sounded beside her. He sounded a little conflicted, unlike his usual calm and decisive tone.
Ye Huanyan was slightly stunned. "Why?"
"Because I used to be like him."
Gu Sinian took a sip of tea. His eyes were filled with sadness. "But I'm not as lucky as him. You're still around, so he still has a chance to make up for it. I'm gone."
Ye Huanyan frowned. "Are you talking about Sister-in-law?"
He took a deep breath. His eyes trembled. "When Young Ke left, she was pregnant with a three-month-old child. But I didn't even know about the child's existence. I think there might have been a misunderstanding between us. But no matter what she did wrong, I shouldn't have treated her that way. I regret it, but it's too late."
This was the first time Gu Sinian mentioned Young Ke in front of Ye Huanyan. It was also the first time he took the initiative to mention her after Young Ke left.
The name Young Ke was like a thorn in his heart. The longer she was gone, the deeper this thorn would pierce into his heart.
Gu Sinian told her a lot about his family. He said that he had fallen out with his family because he wanted to marry Young Ke. He had thought that Young Ke would live a happy life after she was accepted by her family, but he didn't expect that the real storm would come after their marriage.
Suspicion, jealousy, and love and hate intertwined. In the end, only despair was left in their marriage.
It was his despair, and Young Ke's.
"When Young Ke left, we had just been divorced for a month. I didn't know that she was pregnant, and she didn't tell me. She was the one who brought up the divorce. I thought that she didn't have me in her heart, so I let her go. That was the worst decision of my life."
Ye Huanyan listened to Gu Sinian's story about him and Young Ke. The more she listened to the story, the more upset she felt for the people in the story, and also for a person who wasn't in the story.
Gu Sinian showed her the photo of Young Ke in his wallet. Her eyes froze. "She …"
"The female model you saw looks like her, but it's not her."
Gu Sinian explained indifferently. When he mentioned the female model, his eyes were full of indifference.
Ye Huanyan's heart clenched. Her voice was hoarse. "Brother, I didn't know about your past. I even threw a tantrum with you because of Xiao Yue. I'm sorry."
Gu Sinian raised his hand and rubbed her head. "You're my sister. How could I blame you?"
After Young Ke left, looking for Ye Huanyan became the only mental support in Gu Sinian's heart. He wanted to find something for himself to do.
"Yan Yan, I'm not saying this to make you feel bad. I just want to tell you that being separated by life and death is a very sad and powerless thing. While you're still young, you still have a chance to let go of it."
Ye Huanyan's eyes reddened.
If Gu Sinian had appeared earlier, she and Ling Han wouldn't have been like this.
If she had known about her identity earlier, then Ling Han's resentment towards her wouldn't have existed. But now, it was too late to take back the water that had been spilled. How could she let go of that dead child, and let go of the thousands of doubts between her and Ling Han that were riddled with holes?
The sky outside the window gradually darkened. Dark clouds hung over the sky. A real storm was coming.
Gu Sinian glanced out of the window and frowned.
He didn't know how much Ye Huanyan had taken in and how much she could let go of in her heart. From her brother's point of view, he hoped that Ye Huanyan would never forgive this bastard. But from Ling Han's point of view, he empathized with him and hoped that Ye Huanyan would give him a chance.
Ye Huanyan made dinner. There were three dishes and a soup. It was more sumptuous than usual. She kept putting food on his plate to let him eat more. After dinner, she cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.
She looked calm and composed. It seemed that she didn't care about how heavy the rain was outside the window. She also didn't care if Ling Han was still waiting in the same place.
Gu Sinian didn't rush her. He was an outsider. He quietly waited for his sister to make a decision. No matter what decision she made, he would respect her in the end.
The lightning lit up the whole room as bright as day. What followed was a deafening rumble of thunder.
Gu Sinian stood by the window and lifted a corner of the curtain. Looking at the sorry figure in the rain, his frown deepened.
