Chapter 609: Chapter 2: Ireland, the Country Where Divorce Is Forbidden
In the car.
The two of them got into the back seat from both sides simultaneously. The driver was Old Bai, who was quite happy to hear that today President Gu and Mr. Chi were going to the civil affairs bureau to register their marriage.
Thus, after President Gu and Mr. Chi got into the car.
Old Bai cheerfully congratulated them: "Congratulations to President Gu and Mr. Chi for eternally binding together on this day of blooming flowers and radiant beauty. As the saying goes, a match made in heaven and a perfect pair on earth. I sincerely wish Miss Gu and Mr. Chi lifelong love and happiness."
He thought that after saying these pleasing words, the people in the back seat would be beaming with joy, after all, joyous events attract magpies’ calls.
Unexpectedly, not only did he not see President Gu and Mr. Chi’s joyful smiles, but instead saw the gloomy and somber expression on President Gu’s face.
President Gu was unhappy!
Mr. Chi surprisingly didn’t console her!
"Cough..." Apparently, they didn’t receive the international certificate.
Presumably, something unpleasant must have happened between them earlier.
The blessing was given prematurely.
...
Gu Yuan didn’t return to the Gu Mansion, so Old Bai drove to the Gu Group.
After Gu Yuan got off the car, she didn’t give any instructions, leaving only Chi Yu alone in the car.
Old Bai inquired: "Where would Mr. Chi like to go next?"
Chi Yu retracted his gaze from Gu Yuan’s silhouette, his fingertips lightly tapping the car window edge: "Return to the Gu Mansion."
"Alright."
The car drove back to the Gu Mansion.
That night, Gu Yuan didn’t return to the Gu Mansion; she informed Uncle Xiang in advance, so Suisui didn’t need to worry since Chi Yu was at the Gu Mansion to take care of her daughter.
Gu Yuan stayed at Yujing No.1 for the night.
Before sleeping, she checked her phone—there were no messages.
The next day she went to the company as usual; during the meeting, her phone was turned on but she didn’t receive any messages from him. Gu Yuan wondered if she was too distracted, then quickly realized that he should have already gone to Hai City, or was on the way there.
There are always busy matters.
Chi Yu indeed personally went to Hai City and met with Quan Yin.
The uncle-nephew relationship hadn’t warmed up due to certain matters, but Chi Yu was Chi Yu, not just Quan Jin; meeting Quan Yin wasn’t that difficult for him.
Their collaboration was still very pleasant.
Quan Yin held a high position and was in an important role in Hai City; manipulating situations like setting obstacles wasn’t difficult for him. Like using magic, he easily concentrated Qin Bing’s recent itinerary on Hai City, forcing Qin Bing to immediately rush back to Hai City to handle those tricky issues.
Right after Qin Bing left, he sent people to guard Sheng Yi, but surprisingly, the meticulously chosen personnel encountered some issues and were all fooled, unable to stop Sheng Yi. Sheng Yi’s parents couldn’t hold her back either, so Sheng Yi took her luggage and swiftly boarded the flight to M Country, successfully making her escape.
Qin Bing figured out that the girl found a helper behind the scenes.
Thinking this would stop him?
That girl is still too naïve.
Had he known, he wouldn’t have let her roam freely; having her by his side would have been much better. Yet this incident served as a lesson for Qin Bing. The entertainment industry is a fun place, and over the years, he had kept his focus, but now unexpectedly, there’s a secret admirer involved; she’s going to M Country to find that person...
...
Sheng Yi’s departure was swift, but she was personally escorted to the airport by Gu Yuan. She arranged everything properly; with Chi Yu in Hai City and herself here, they worked in tandem to smoothly send Sheng Yi off.
The two didn’t have time to say much, whatever needed to be said was already discussed in the car.
The personnel Qin Bing arranged to guard Sheng Yi were temporarily shaken off, but they would soon catch up.
After switching her boarding pass, Sheng Yi opened her arms and gave Gu Yuan a full embrace: "Yuanyuan, thank you for everything you’ve done for me. Take care of yourself and tell Suisui I will bring her a New Year’s gift."
Gu Yuan nodded, quietly gazing at Sheng Yi in front of her. She didn’t want to waste time, gently patting Sheng Yi’s shoulder: "Hurry inside, or you’ll be late."
"Goodbye, Yuanyuan."
"See you in the New Year. Hope when you return, you’ll be with someone."
Gu Yuan hoped all of Sheng Yi’s initiatives wouldn’t be in vain, so she blessed Sheng Yi with the wish that when she returned, she’d be together with someone.
Perhaps when Gu Yuan said this, she didn’t expect it to become a prophecy.
When Sheng Yi returned, she indeed came back with someone.
But it wasn’t her and Dao An.
Rather, it was...
After sending Sheng Yi off, Gu Yuan got back into the car.
She waited inside the car for nearly twenty minutes until the plane heading to M Country took off from the airport; Gu Yuan lowered the window and saw those two planes.
