Chapter 444: Chapter 444: I Absolutely Won’t Allow It _1
"Ye Lu, have you really left?" He covered his head in agony, full of remorse. He should not have said such harsh words out of jealousy.
"Young master, quick, quick, Miss Ye is on television," the butler rushed in, his face pale as if he had seen something horrifying, his voice stammering.
Gu Yan’s eyes lit up and he sprang up, rushing towards the television.
As expected, Ye Lu appeared on the television news, surrounded by a crowd of reporters who squeezed her tightly in the middle, looking like a tiny lamb cornered by a pack of wolves. These detestable reporters angered him as he scowled.
She looked thinner these days, her cheeks pale and she seemed worn out.
A pang of pain hit him as he recalled the image of her breaking down and sobbing after he left, furious at her for not telling the truth, and jealous of Third Young Master Jun, he had ignored her.
She must have hardly eaten or slept these past few days!
His heart ached as he watched her, and then he heard the sharp voice of the reporter on the television.
"Why didn’t we see President Gu accompany you to the hospital? Did you suddenly come to the hospital for a prenatal check? Are you pregnant?"
"Mrs. Gu, when do you plan to get married? Are you rushing to marry because you’re pregnant? You just divorced President Shang not too long ago, and recently broke up with Third Young Master Jun, you got pregnant so soon, do you know whose child it is?"
Gu Yan’s face became ashen. His veins throbbed in his hand. Pregnant? How could that be? These trashy reporters, throwing such vicious questions and attacking Ye Lu.
He won’t let whoever was responsible on the website get away with it.
Ye Lu would definitely ignore these pointless questions.
As he thought, Ye Lu asked the reporters sternly to make way, but that only provoked a more vicious attack from them.
Things like she was in such a hurry because she felt guilty on being struck right, that her reputation was already rotten and she was shamelessly playing around with several men, were uttered.
As he watched her being increasingly cornered, Gu Yan regretted not being there to protect her from such insults.
But why did she leave without contacting him for so many days?
"Ye Lu, you’ve been angry for several days. Isn’t it time to cool down and come back to me?"
He watched her painfully on the screen, muttering to himself.
Then he suddenly heard her indifference, almost serious voice from the television.
"Please don’t call me Mrs. Gu anymore. Mr. Gu Yan and I have called off our engagement. We have broken up!"
Those words were like a bolt from the blue, striking Gu Yan. He froze on the spot, his breath hitched, staring incredulously at the television screen.
He heard it right, didn’t he? She actually said the wedding was off, they had broken up!
Gu Yan swayed weakly, his face white as a ghost. He thought she would cool down after being upset for a few days, then he’d apologize again, and everything would be as before.
But she shocked him by using television to announce their breakup to him and unilaterally cancelled the engagement.
Was Ye Lu out of her mind? To end things this way, just because he was a bit harsh that day? Did she even take their wedding seriously? Did she take him seriously?
"I don’t believe it, you always said you loved me deeply, right? Isn’t it so easy for you to break up over a small fight after being unable to forget for seven years? Is this your so-called love?"
Gu Yan was confused, heartbroken, and even more angry. He could not accept this sudden and ruthless decision.
"You didn’t even give me a chance, Ye Lu, you’re too heartless. If you think you can single-handedly decide everything, you’re wrong. I will not allow it." He clenched his fist, grabbed his coat and rushed out.
