Chapter 253 The promise

Gu Yan heard the gossip about her and Jiang Jingcheng when she went back to office. All kinds of thoughts thronged the employees’ minds. Gu Yan was angry but still tried to control her anger because she didn’t want them to lose face.

Gu Yan couldn’t help thinking about what happened just now. She was confused. “Why is Jiang Jingcheng so fickle? It seems that he is simple but has a sophisticated mind.” All in all, Gu Yan believed that he was kind and pure.

Gu Yan was a little bit upset since her colleagues thought that they were lovers. She felt embarrassed to get along with Assistant Liu and Jiang Jingcheng.

Gu Yan treated Jiang Jingcheng as her right hand and an ordinary friend at most. Why did these people gossip so much?

They all knew that Gu Yan loved Mo Yichen. But they still thought that she had an affair with Jiang Jingcheng, which made her puzzled.

She couldn’t clarify it since it would make things get worse. But she felt uncomfortable about their words. She didn’t know what to do.

“Why do they keep gossiping? Does it do any good to themselves?” Gu Yan thought anxiously.

Someone was calling her at that moment. It was Mo Yichen’s call and Gu Yan picked up the phone immediately.

“Hey, Chen.” Gu Yan said dully.

Hearing Gu Yan’s voice, Mo Yichen felt that something was wrong. “Yanyan, what happened? Why are you unhappy?” He asked anxiously.

Gu Yan didn’t want Mo Yichen to get involved since he could do nothing to help her. After all, it related to her studio. So, she replied in a low voice, “Nothing. Don’t worry about me.”

Mo Yichen was quite sure that something happened to her. He lowered his voice, “Yanyan, I won’t force you if you don’t want to talk about it. But I’ll be with you since I’m your backup.”

Gu Yan was touched and thrilled. She felt grateful to meet Mo Yichen, who cared so much about her.

Gu Yan closed her eyes and said, “Chen, today is a sad day for me. Something really upsets me”

“Tell me please. What happened?” Mo Yichen said anxiously.

“Well, we hired a man who is very capable. I treat him well. Other employees keep gossiping about our relation.” Gu Yan said.

Mo Yichen was confused, “Who is he? Jiang Jingcheng?”

Gu Yan replied dully, “Yes. He is just a friend for me. It really bothers me.”

Mo Yichen felt that something was wrong. But he did not think too much and comforted Gu Yan, “Don’t care about others. Be yourself. They just don’t know that I’m your boyfriend. I’ll let others know that you are my girlfriend.”

“Aha, you are so glib.” Gu Yan was happy actually.

“Ha-ha …” Mo Yichen laughed.

“Seriously, Gu Yan, do you think that we should get married? Then they won’t gossip about you anymore. I’ll convince my mom.”

Gu Yan was uncomfortable when she heard about marriage. Her last marriage was miserable. She still had fear for it and couldn’t overcome it. It was said that marriage was the grave of love. She wanted to keep their love fresh and alive.

“Yichen, I don’t want to talk about it now. I’m not ready for a new marriage.”

Gu Yan was in a good mood after talking to Mo Yichen.

“Yichen, how is Xiangyan? Does he miss me?” Gu Yan asked.

“Come on, you haven’t come to see us for a few days. We miss you very much. Dear Gu Yan, come to meet me.” Mo Yichen stretched out his arms and imagined that Gu Yan ran to him in the wind. She hugged him and she was so happy.

“Well, OK. I’ll come to see you this week. It’s almost late autumn. You two should buy some clothes.”

“Xiangyan can’t get cold. We should prepare warm clothes for him as early as possible so that he can change clothes if the weather gets colder.” Gu Yan told him.

“OK. I’ll tell him the good news tonight. He always made trouble these two days since he wanted to see you. I don’t know how to deal with it. If you don’t come to see him, he will keep making trouble.”

“Hahaha …” Mo Yichen’s words amused Gu Yan. The father and son always made her happy. It seemed that they were united by invisible magic and they could encourage each other to overcome difficulties in their daily life. Also, they could share happiness.

“Deal. See you on Saturday. I’ll pick you up with lovely Xiangyan.” Mo Yichen said.

“OK.” Gu Yan replied gently. She missed Xiangyan so much since she didn’t see him for a few days. But Xiangyan missed his mother, too.

They might have mutual affinity.
