C49 In those years, Dong Jiajia …

"Don't come over." Ying Yue turned her back, and her hands were cold and trembling as she placed them together again.

However, Gu Lin didn't stop his steps. He caught up to her, shook her cold hands, then led her to the sofa and sat down.

When he was done, he turned around and stared out into the dark of the rainy night without a word.

The atmosphere turned heavy again, just as Ying Yue was about to let go of the pillow in her hands and stand up to leave.

Gu Lin suddenly spoke.

"Do you want to know about Dong Jiajia and me?" There was no coldness in his voice, nor happiness nor sadness. More accurately, there was no emotion in his voice. Gu Lin turned around and stared at Ying Yue's face.

At this moment, Ying Yue felt that Gu Lin was a stranger. Even her words were the same, as if she was discussing someone or something that had nothing to do with her.

However, from those eyes, Ying Yue was able to see a flaw.

Dong Jiajia, Gu Lin's ex-girlfriend, first date, and even up till now, she was still deeply engraved in her heart.

She didn't say anything. Gu Lin was speaking with such a tone. Regardless of whether she wanted to know or not, he would probably say it out loud.

"Dong Jiajia and I …" As he spoke up to here, Gu Lin paused for a moment before lowering his head. His face was expressionless, but his pair of slender hands were tangled together, implying that he was trying to betray the struggle in this person's heart.

After staying still for a while, Gu Lin pursed his lips and continued speaking.

"She and I were childhood sweethearts lovers, the same family background, the same interests, we grew up together, and naturally grew up together in the expectations of our seniors. After graduating from high school, the two of us went abroad to study together, and after I obtained my degree, I didn't want to accept the arrangements of my grandfather and father, but instead joined the bar that I had always longed for."

"It doesn't matter if I am young or full of ambition. At that time, I would always wholeheartedly strive to achieve some accomplishments and work hard to prove myself. Then, I would tell everyone that I have done it, I can do it."

"However, because I was focused on my work, my time with Jiajia gradually decreased." At this point, Gu Lin raised his head and smiled bitterly, "Now that I think about it, no matter if it's eating or dating, it seems like I'm always late, every time it's like that."

Whether it was at home or abroad, she had always been attached to Gu Lin at all times. However, because Gu Lin wanted to develop his own career, the two of them had constantly quarreled, quarrelled, made up, quarreled, and made peace on all sorts of minor matters. Every time, Gu Lin would promise to never be late again, but the next time, he would always be late.

"Everyone will think we're going to get married." As Gu Lin spoke up to this point, a very pained expression emerged on his face; he was choked with sobs and conflicted.

Ying Yue originally wanted to remain silent, but at this moment, she had no choice but to say those words on his behalf.

"But in the end you're not together."

Gu Lin glanced at Ying Yue, then turned his head to look outside the window. It had been raining all this time, and his thoughts were constantly overlapping between the past and present.

"We were the same that we were that day. After a big argument, Dong Jiajia left in a bad mood. She swore to never see me again. She left in a bad mood and went to the bar to play by herself. Who would have thought …"

At this point, Gu Lin choked up once again. This time, Ying Yue didn't help him.

Sometimes, painful memories were like wounds bitten by a venomous snake. If you wanted to live, if you wanted the wound to heal, then you had to cut it open with your own hands, clean up the bad blood, endure the pain, and then bandage it with your own hands.

This was a state of mind where no one could help or replace him. Only Gu Lin could help him get through it.

Perhaps this was the so-called calamity.

He choked on his words again …

"She will be attacked by a few bad guys. When I rushed to the hospital from the law firm, all I saw was an unconscious Dong Jiajia."

Since this incident had almost destroyed the relationship between the two families, Dong Jiajia became desperate and wanted nothing more than to die. The parents of the Dong Clan blamed Gu Lin for not protecting their daughter properly, and at the beginning, the parents of the Gu Clan did not say much, but the situation became more and more intense, making them unable to remain silent and rational.

The more the conflict between the two families grew, the more hatred and confusion they had towards each other.

I quit my job at the law firm and took all the responsibility. I even promised to marry Jiajia, perhaps because my sincerity moved the two families, the constant quarrelling finally stopped, the relationship between the two families slowly eased up, they put down their prejudice and calmly prepared the wedding for us. For the past few months, I accompanied Dong Jiajia by her side and did what she liked.

"But in the end, Dong Jiajia still escaped. On the day before the wedding, she sent a text message saying that she could not marry me as if nothing had happened, so she fled overseas and never heard from me again."

After hearing Gu Lin's words, Ying Yue remained silent for a long time. This was a sad and beautiful story. The male and female protagonists were supposed to have a beautiful marriage, but in the end, they were separated by reality and fate.

And she, the person who had suddenly barged into Gu Ling Sheng's life, had become his wife.

After a moment of silence, Ying Yue raised her head and said.

"I believe you should already know about me and Sun Yusheng. Until now, I still have no way of forgiving him and Xia Xiaoyu for betraying me." Ying Yue turned her head and placed the ring on her finger on Gu Lin's hand, "I can't forgive others for betraying me, much less for hurting me. Madam Gu only has one position, and there's only one person suitable for this position. You chose me, but that person isn't me."

Gu Lin, I believe that your Dong Jiajia will definitely come back. When she left you, it was because she loved you, so she can't forgive herself for being together with you, which is no longer pure and beautiful. I think it's been a long time since you and her have matured, and you will also gradually let go of that matter.

"I shouldn't hope and steal from you what I shouldn't have, so I'll return it to you."

Gu Lin's gaze slowly rose from the ring on his hand and landed on Ying Yue's back. She wore a white bathrobe and had a porcelain white skin. Her beautiful face was filled with kindness and stubbornness that she couldn't let go of.

"So, we still …"

The words suddenly stopped.

Ying Yue's heart froze. The warmth and softness of her forehead was like a magic spell, causing her to be unable to move or move.
