Chapter 398 Deep thinking

No one could bear it, not to mention a woman like Gu Yan who had experienced a failed marriage. She did not want to enter the tomb of love again.

Perhaps it could leave good memories after she let it go. Perhaps it would be the best result for them. Gu Yan always had such an idea in her mind.

Manla noticed that she did not compromise. She believed that Gu Yan had completely given up the relationship. Although she felt sorry for them, she felt helpless. After all, as an outsider, she couldn’t do anything.

“All good is good.” Gu Yan said conclusively, as if she didn’t want Manla to worry about her and she was comforting herself. She smiled bitterly. She couldn’t imagine that she had to ask others to know about Mo Yichen. Their love really came to the end.

“Well.” Manla didn’t know what to say, but nodded.

Manla’s cup was empty. Gu Yan wanted to pour her another one. When she stood up and was about to leave, Manla stopped her. She said, “You don’t need to do it. I have to go.”

“Are you leaving?”

“You just came here a few moments before.”

Gu Yan was reluctant to say goodbye to her. Her mouth puffed up as if she was playing the cute. She frowned. No one could understand the meaning in her eyes.

“Yeah, I’m here on a business trip and I still have to finish my work.” Manla raised her eyebrows and said, “What? You don’t want me to leave?”

“Come on, stir yourself.” Gu Yan pretended to say disgustedly.

They laughed and walked to the door. Gu Yan opened the door for her.

“Has Qi Changfeng, the man you said, done anything to you recently? For example, does he did that to you?” Manla suddenly asked without thinking too much. Her smile seemed more sinister than before.

After all, Gu Yan really needed someone to take care of her. Mo Yichen couldn’t give her a happy life, but someone else could.

In her mind, Gu Yan had no right to regret after she made the choice. Moreover, leaving that sad place and living a normal life without disputes might be a good thing for her.

Gu Yan froze, quickly smiled and sad, “No, he is busy too.” Gu Yan didn’t like to talk about Qi Changfeng. Except for Mo Yichen and Mo Xiangyan, there was no room for another man in her heart.

She didn’t have any interests in other men.

Although Qi Changfeng was handsome and gentle, and cared her deeply, he couldn’t win her heart.

“What is he about? Is it more important than you?” Manla looked at her playfully.

Gu Yan did not change her expression. She just looked around to avoid being heard and walked to Manla with great care. She came close to her and said softly, “Don’t talk nonsense. There are so many people here. If he heard what you said, I would have no dignity to work here.”

“Hah! Don’t tell me you don’t have feelings for him.” Manla smiled and walked out of the shop. She ignored Gu Yan who was in fear at this moment. Instead, she raised her tone.

In the past few days, Gu Yan had seen Qi Changfeng very frequently. Although they did not spend a long time with each other each time, she could always find that he was little nervous. His eyes flickered with uneasiness.

Whenever this happened, Gu Yan was sad. However, she didn’t know how to tell him that she had no interests in love.

Yes, she couldn’t give him any hope and bear anyone’s betrayal. She became more cautious in dealing with men.

However, a moment ago, Manla even shouted the name of Qi Changfeng in public, which really made her upset. She raised her tone to cover Manla’s voice.

After Manla left, she was relieved after she looked around and found Qi Changfeng was not there.

Gu Yan wanted to refute her, but she had to wave her hands to say goodbye after seeing Manla’s back.

“I will see you again before going back to City A. Don’t miss me too much!” Manla’s fading voice was still as sprightly as ever.

Gu Yan stared blankly at her back until she disappeared into the crowd.

After she watched Manla leave, she was bored and went back behind the counter, thinking about Manla’s words.

In fact, she knew that Qi Changfeng loved her. Even a dull girl could notice, not to mention Gu Yan who had delicate feelings. However, even if she knew it, what could she do? Qi Changfeng said nothing. She couldn’t stop him loving her. She kept praying that these were just the illusions of being self-sentimental. Perhaps he helped her only because he thought that she was pitiful. She always comforted herself in this way.

“Welcome!”

The tinkle of wind chimes outside the shop interrupted her thoughts. Gu Yan lifted her head habitually and looked at the customer with a smile. However, Gu Yan’s smile froze after seeing the one who entered the shop. She should have said something, but she didn’t know what to say.

“Mr. Qi…”

Qi Changfeng walked straight to her. The wind blew the hair on his forehead.

“Why do you look at me like this? Is my face weird?” He stood at the counter and looked at Gu Yan amusingly.

“No.” Gu Yan suddenly recovered her wits, stopped looking at him, and looked down at her hands.

“What’s wrong?” Qi Changfeng was confused. He showed concern in his eyes.

Gu Yan lowered her head and didn’t notice his eager sight. Her cheeks flushed slightly, as if a girl’s careful thoughts had been discovered.

“Are you all right?” Seeing Gu Yan kept lowering her head and said nothing, he was anxious.

“I’m okay.” She looked up at him with a standard smile, “What do you want to have, Mr. Qi?”

She raised her head. They looked at each other for a few seconds and immediately lowered their heads.

Qi Changfeng was stunned. He didn’t expect that things changed so fast, but he quickly adjusted himself.
