Chapter Five: How to Abandon Love?

Gu Yan thinks that the resentment in Wen Yunfeng’s heart caused by the surrogacy must have been settled after the humiliation to her yesterday. The remaining is that they will be strangers on the same road. It is out of her expectation that he will bring her to the wine table.

“Miss Gu, one more drink, otherwise I will feel humiliated.” A corpulent man seems to be greatly interested in Gu Yan. His flirting eyes are always looking Gu Yan up and down. Moreover, he has already propelled Gu Yan to drink five cups of wine at the very beginning of the banquet.

Gu Yan has red cheeks and blurred eyes. Obviously, she will soon get drunk. She waves her hands and refuses at once: “Mr. Huang, really sorry. I can’t drink. It’s true.”

“Miss Gu, you are modest. Wen takes you out. You must be a heavy drinker. Come on. Cheers.” With this, the man grasps Gu Yan’s arm and tries to pour the wine into her mouth.

“Mr. Huang...cough...”

Gu Yan struggles heavily. She is choked by the wine and can’t help vomiting to the man’s face.

The man’s face soon turns gloomy. The hot wine table quiets down in an instant. The corpulent man is the boss of Qingfeng-the biggest cooperative partner of Wen. On seeing this, all followers dare not to speak except Wen Yunfeng.

However, Wen Yufeng is holding a cup of red wine and staring at Gu Yan with interest. Even though all people know Gu Yan is her assistant, he has no intention of rescuing the besieged condition.

“Sorry, sorry.” Gu Yan completely doesn’t know what to do. She has to bow and apologize continuously.

The greasy man shows a sullen expression and stares at her. He takes up different wines on the table, pours them into the cup, and then shakes up, saying: “I will not bewilder you. As long as you drink this bottle, the thing is over, otherwise, I promise you will not survive in A city.”

Gu Yan takes over the mixed wine in trembling and hesitates to drink. The mixed wine is much stronger than the single wine and the alcoholic strength is multiplied. Granted that she hasn’t drunk the wines before, she will drink to faint with this cup.

Looking at the greasy man's sinister eyes, she also knows what terrible things will happen if she is drunk.

“Does Miss Gu like me to feed you?” the greasy man asks with a smile.

"I..." Gu Yan holds the glass of wine and looks around for help. Every colleague with eye contact with her either lowers the head or shows indifference. Everyone finds that the greasy man is interested in Gu Yan. He is the president of Qingfeng Group. Who dares to go against him?

Gu Yan doesn’t give up and puts her last hope to Wen Yunfeng carefully. However, Wen Yunfeng only hugs his arms and looks at her sportively. The handsome eyes are full of sneer.

Exactly, his heart is as stiff as the stone. How could she expect Wen Yunfeng to help her? If he would, he won’t tell her: “I am helping you as well. The customers this time are very important. They are very rich. As long as you make them happy, they will give you everything you want.”

After retracting her dim sight, Gu Yan grits her teeth and drinks up the wine in the cup in one breath. After drinking, Gu Yan tries hard to smile: “I am sorry. I will go to the washroom. Please enjoy yourself.”

Gu Yan bites her tongue tips to keep awake and hurries to stagger into the washroom. Immediately after closing the door, she puts her fingers into the throat, trying to vomit the wine out.

Vomiting the wine is the most painful, especially the wine drank in emptiness. The liquid pours out from her nose, and the irritating tears are flowing.

In vomiting, Gu Yan squats on the floor and laughs foolishly. She is unable to straighten her waist because of the laughter, but her tears are flowing unceasingly.

That is her husband, to whom she has paid out everything. He is indifferent on seeing that she is inebriated by another man, and still watching her with a sneering, sportive and condescending sight...

After tidying herself up, Gu Yan is suddenly covered of her mouth and pulled into the washroom again when she just steps out of it. The two bodyguards in black outside immediately place the sign of “In cleaning, please do not disturb” in front of the door.

“Help...hum...Yunfeng...”

Gu Yan struggles in panic. One passerby leaves in a hurry to avoid troubles.

Gu Yan grasps the washroom door with great strength. Her knuckles turn white because of the strength, and her fingernails scratch heavily on the walls.

She stares at the door tightly. She is still willing to believe that the man used to keep off the rain with leaves will appear at that time.

From childhood, their relationship would soon recover whenever he was angry. He will not disregard her forever, by no means...

However, that person doesn’t appear until her last finger is peeled off the door frame.

“What are you doing?”

This is a clear voice, like a mountain breeze flowing through the bamboo forest, which is clear and elegant. The desperate land is revived by such a wind.

The power of the mixed wine is very strong, especially to a girl with poor liquor capacity. The world is trapped in darkness gradually. Against the light, she seems to observe one person, who is as tall as a god. She seems to have seen him anywhere...The harder she tries to think, the more dizzy her head is. In the end, she couldn’t feel anything.

“Mo, Mr. Mo.” The greasy man is so frightened and he is ready to throw Gu Yan overground.

Mo Yichen comes over and takes over her. His slight sight sweeps over the man and he only speaks two words: “get out.”

The effect of the two words is not discounted because of his clear and bright tone. The man runs out of the washroom destructively, and then rushes out of the restaurant directly without going back to the box.

....

One room.

After being forced to drink a cup of strong tea, Gu Yan opens her eyes in a daze. Her head is quite dizzy. She can’t see the appearance of the person in front of her no matter how hard she tries, but she can remember that he has appeared in her world like a god.

“Can, can...can I ask you one, one question?” Gu Yan has red cheeks and blurred eyes, with one hand pulling Mo Yichen’s sleeves slightly. She stretches out one thin finger, and seems to be rather charmingly naive.

Looking at this face that is similar to his son, Mo Yichen calmly watches Gu Yan, then nods gently.

The woman, he knows her.

“Ho ho, I know you will say yes.” Gu Yan presents a stupid smile. She winks her eyes and asks: “Can you tell me how could I abandon love?”

Abandon love? The woman was willing to engage in surrogacy for love at that time. But she would ask him such a question now. Therefore, Mo Yichen is rather surprised. He thinks over and asks: “Why?”

“Why?” Gu Yan pouts and thinks over. She pulls over Mo Yichen’s hand on her left heart, and her blurred eyes become very sad: “Because...it hurts, really hurts here...”

Gu Yan chokes with sobs. Tears slide quietly from the corners of the eyes. Although it is very quiet, the whole room seems to be full of grief.

Mo Yichen watches at her hand on Gu Yan’s chest and her tearing face, he uncommonly stretches to wipe her tears lightly instead of pushing the drunk woman away.
