Chapter 38 - Her Mother

In the elevator, Yi Yun Chu was dressed in a black dress, the dark color giving off a serious feeling.

Although she was already middle-aged, she was still well maintained. Her skin was white and her features were exquisite. There was not a single wrinkle on her face, as if time could not leave a mark on her face.

It was just that at that moment, Yi Yun Chu's face did not have a good expression.

Gu Yun Qi seemed to have long gotten used to her expression.

However, he had his eyes lowered the entire time, and didn't look straight into her eyes.

How long has it been?

It had been a year since he had returned to the country, and he hadn't even seen her once.

He had not seen them for several years.

It was as if his face had disappeared from Gu Yun Qi's life after separating from his father.

Now that he suddenly saw it, Gu Yun Qi didn't even know how to communicate with them. In the end, he could only form a single word to describe them.

"Mom …"

The relationship between Gu Yun Qi and her mother was never considered good, and there were even... Very poor, to say the least.

Her parents divorced when she was three. Her memories of what happened before she was three years old were completely blurry.

Therefore, he had only vaguely heard a few stories about his parents from his family.

It was only because of Grandfather that Yi Yun Chu became a taboo topic within the family, and no one dared to bring it up.

Ever since she had regained her memories, the mama had always been very good to her. The maternal love she had tasted in her memories didn't have any relationship with Yi Yun Chu at all, rather, it was something that she had experienced from him.

For some unknown reason, every time he faced Yi Yun Chu, Gu Yun Qi would always feel that he was a little unfamiliar and a little timid.

Yi Yun Chu did not get out of the elevator. Instead, he looked at Gu Yun Qi quietly for a moment before he pressed on the button to open the door.

Gu Yun Qi was a little hesitant, did she want to go in or not?

If they entered, it would become a confined space for the mother and daughter …

She never knew how to get along with Yi Yun Chu.

"Not coming in?"

Yi Yun Chu said indifferently, his voice was cold and thin, without any kind of warmth.

Gu Yun Qi's heart skipped a beat, after hesitating for a moment, she walked into the elevator.

"Your dad called me."

The elevator door slowly closed. Yi Yun Chu opened his mouth and said this single sentence, his voice still cold and indifferent.

"Because I couldn't find you, I was worried that you would come to my place and ask if I had received any calls from you."

Yi Yun Chu glanced at Gu Yun Qi.

Facing this daughter, Yi Yun Chu actually didn't have much feelings for her.

Her expression was cold as she said, "What? At twenty-six, he even learned to run away from home? "Still young?"

The moment he opened his mouth, it was akin to a scolding sentence.

Gu Yun Qi pursed her lips tightly. She didn't make a sound, but her heart was in pain.

Although she had never expected anything to happen with Yi Yun Chu, hearing such cold words from him that didn't have any warmth left her feeling uncomfortable and cold.

"Since you're already here, let's have lunch together. Tell me, what happened? At the age of twenty-six, you learned how to run away from home. What opportunity is this?"

The elevator reached the first floor. Ding! The door opened.

Gu Yun Qi followed behind Yi Yun Chu, and from start to end, she did not utter a single word.

With a slightly pale face, he walked outside.

In that moment, she had even forgotten the fact that Lu Ye Chen was still waiting for her.

To be exact, Gu Yun Qi did not wish for him to see this scene.

Lu Ye Chen was standing in front of the talent display board. On there, there were photos of the doctors and a look at their qualifications.

He found her picture easily.

Amongst the pile of photos of the directors and vice principal doctors, which were mostly middle-aged men and women, Gu Yun Qi's young face was just too eye-catching.

Her resume was clearly written below. Gu Yun Qi, associate chief physician, doctorate in clinical medicine from the Cambridge Medical College, worked at Wellington Hospital in the United Kingdom.

In the photo, she was wearing a white coat, her long hair hanging down to her shoulders. Her smile was light and gentle, with a kind of shyness that he was familiar with.

Looking at her in the photo, the corner of Lu Ye Chen's lips couldn't help but curve slightly.

He heard footsteps coming from the other side. He turned his gaze towards the direction of the footsteps.

They saw a well-maintained middle-aged lady walking in front, with Gu Yun Qi following behind her.

He lowered his head and pursed his lips. His face was somewhat pale as he followed silently without uttering a word.

Lu Ye Chen frowned, he had already recognized that the middle aged woman was Yi Yun Chu.

What happened that year was not a secret, Lu Ye Chen had heard it from Cheng Lang himself.

Old Man Gu hated merchants to such an extent. He had to have a reason for hating them. He couldn't possibly think that merchants were inferior just because of their business.

The reason was simple, that year Yi Yun Chu divorced Gu Jing Heng for cheating.

Yunqi was three at the time of the divorce.

He didn't have much memory yet, but his family was broken.

Yi Yun Chu was pretty, he was pretty when he was young. After going through a failed marriage and meeting Gu Jing Heng, even though she was a married woman, Gu Jing Heng had unhesitatingly stayed with her. At that time, he had withstood all the pressure from the old man and even tried to convince the old man to accept her.

Yi Yun Chu was a capable woman, but he also had his own cultivation. His temperament and words were very outstanding, and the old man gradually accepted this matter.

Yun Qi came from a noble background, and everything seemed to have calmed down.

Yi Yun Chu, on the other hand, went against the rules.

The former head of the Ying Group, Ying Nantian, was a very big businessman.

As long as it was a divorce, especially one that she didn't want, it would be Gu Yun Qi.

It was as if this daughter of his was not born by her at all.

One month after the divorce, Yi Yun Chu married Ying Nantian and became the wife of the Ying Family Group.

In the past, Yi Yun Chu could also be considered a rare girl, having been married three times. Better each time.

Lu Ye Chen already could not really remember what he felt in his heart the moment he heard this.

Only, he still remembered the heartache at the time when Cheng Lang was saying this, "Qi Qi doesn't know anything. She was still young at that time, what does a child know? I don't understand why. Yi Yun Chu already has so much dissatisfaction and hatred towards Qi Qi, who is only a child, a child born to her. "

Gu Yun Qi walked forward obtuse as she followed behind Yi Yun Chu. She couldn't quite put her finger on what she was feeling.

Or perhaps, she was already numb to her mother's attitude.

Lu Ye Chen frowned slightly as he looked at her eyes that were almost empty and numb.

He walked up behind her and grabbed her wrist with his hand.

Gu Yun Qi was startled, and when she looked back, what she saw was his face.

"Ye Chen."

She gently called out his name. Yi Yun Chu had already stopped and turned to look at them.

"Where are you going?" I'm here. "

Lu Ye Chen strongly held her hand. The warmth of his palm, was so clear, so clear to the point where it made her feel as if his eyes had instantly become somewhat hot.
