For the first time, he lowered himself in front of Gu Youchen and tried his best to ignore this man who had cast a shadow over his head since childhood.

Because the fear of losing was too terrifying. It was only until this moment that Shen Zhiqian deeply understood that he was really afraid of losing Ning Qingqing!

“Qingqing, I didn’t miss your birthday on purpose. I thought everything was stable for us. We have been together for so many years, and we will have many birthdays together in the future, so we can make up for it later. It’s true that I didn’t seriously think about marriage before, but now, I…”

It’s just that before he finished speaking, Ning Qingqing had already walked out from behind Gu Youchen.

“Qingqing—” the two men spoke at the same time.

There was a crack in the bottom of Gu Youchen’s usual calm and collected eyes, but under the night, it couldn’t be distinguished clearly.

However, in the next second, his hand was held by Ning Qingqing.

The soft touch made him tremble all over. All the calm emotions on his face shattered, revealing a tension that was no less than that of Shen Zhiqian, as well as the surprise from being held at this moment!

Ning Qingqing really held onto Gu Youchen’s hand as if she was throwing all caution to the wind. This was her husband even if they had only known each other for a few days.

Although she felt strange and awkward, she had to firmly express her attitude.

It was her own decision to be with Shen Zhiqian back then, and it was also her decision to marry Gu Youchen now.

There were too many moments in a person’s life when decisions needed to be made. At that moment, perhaps there would be hesitation and indecision, but once the conclusion was made, she needed to be responsible for her own choices!

So even though her palms were covered with cold sweat and her whole body was a little stiff and uncomfortable, Ning Qingqing still met Shen Zhiqian’s eyes and said word by word, “The breakup was the result of my serious consideration. Marrying him was my own choice, not out of anger. I’m married now, and it’s inconvenient for me to have anything to do with my ex, so don’t come to me again.”

Every word of Ning Qingqing seemed to take away Shen Zhiqian’s last support. He felt that he could barely hold onto the cake in his hand, but he held on as if he was holding onto the last straw.

The light in his eyes went out little by little, and his voice was hoarse and broken, “Qingqing, I don’t accept the breakup.”

They’ve been together for so long. His Qingqing was so kind and soft-hearted, how could she just say it was over? She must be lying to him!

Maybe this was just a dream, and everything would return to its original place after waking up from the dream.

Without Gu Youchen, without the thorn in his side, he and Ning Qingqing would continue to be together. She wanted to get married, then they would go get the certificate tomorrow!

Shen Zhiqian tried hard to convince himself only to hear Gu Youchen’s cold voice pouring down his head, “CEO Shen should have heard a saying that both marriage and divorce require the consent of two people, but if it’s a breakup, one person is enough to decide.”

Shen Zhiqian suddenly raised his eyes; his eyes were scarlet.

Gu Yuchen continued, “You also said nine years, then you should investigate yourself. You let her be with you for nine years. Maybe no one questioned a word when you were still in school, but now you’ve started working and still don’t want to get married. The people around you, how do they see her?”

Shen Zhiqian’s pupils constricted.

""

“There’s a video, I will send it to CEO Shen’s mailbox later, I believe it can give CEO Shen some hints.” After Gu Yuchen said that, he squeezed Ning Qingqing’s hand, “Qingqing, let’s go.”

“Qingqing——” Shen Zhiqian watched Ning Qingqing’s back and found that she was being led by Gu Youchen all the way to the gate of the community without looking back.

“Pa!” The cake in his hand fell to the ground and was smashed instantly.

The sweet scent of butter filled the air, Shen Zhiqian stood in one place, staring blankly at the smashed cake, as if looking at the past nine years between him and Ning Qingqing.

He stood motionless, the night encompassing him.

At the gate of the community, Gu Youchen held Ning Qingqing’s hand and did not let go.

Only he himself knew how many waves stirred up in his heart within these ten minutes just now!

Afraid that she would soften her heart and turn her back, and that she would regret marrying him, he was far less calm than he seemed.

It wasn’t until the girl put her soft hand in his palm that the roars from the tsunami appeased, and instead of slamming left and right, they all gave out a unified cheer.

He held her hand as if holding a cloud.

Arriving in front of Gu Youchen’s car, the driver had already quickly opened the back seat door, and respectfully said to the two, “CEO Gu, Madam.”

The moment Ning Qingqing got into the car, she felt the hustle and bustle cut off as if she had entered another world.

Beside her, Gu Youchen sat down, the distance between them was less than a meter, and there was still warmth left on her palm from that man.

The space suddenly felt cramped, and Ning Qingqing felt a little unaccustomed.

The three-day adaptation time mentioned before now came to a critical point, and Ning Qingqing realized that she was still not quite ready.

Detecting Ning Qingqing’s discomfort, Gu Youchen first explained, “Qingqing, I originally had a dinner with my client today, but my client’s wife suddenly became ill, so we canceled it. That’s why I came back sooner.”

Ning Qingqing just thought of this and nodded.

Gu Yuchen said again, “I was driving past and stopped by to see you. Now that it isn’t convenient for you to go back to your apartment, let’s go to my place together. Tomorrow, I will accompany you for the move.”

The author has something to say:

Gu Youchen: I’ve finally abducted my wife home!

The FML didn’t deliberately pretend to be Cinderella. Rather, she mentioned to Shen Zhiqian several times to meet her parents. In fact, she wanted to introduce her family and background, but Shen Zhiqian refused for other reasons. The FML couldn’t let everyone at the company find out either and label her as a Bai Fumei (wealthy lady) ~

But everyone will know later because those scumbags must be put in their places again, it will be satisfying!

En, marriage first and then love is coming up~
