"Yan, if you're not feeling well, let me attend this meeting for you," Mrs. Gu said, looking worriedly at Gu Yan.
Since his last plea for forgiveness from Ye Lu, when he fainted in the hospital, his health had seriously declined.
After spending some time in the hospital, and despite asking for Ye Lu's forgiveness repeatedly, she remained unyielding and rebuffed his visits. Eventually, he gave up and returned home to recuperate.
"This is a business meeting called by city officials. It's important for the Gu Clan, and I also need to discuss certain matters with Shang Jingchen," Gu Yan declined coldly.
"Let go of Ye Lu. You were never meant to be together."
Gu Yan smirked contritely. How could he let her go? She had become ruthless, unyielding, showing no ounce of mercy. She was not the same woman he used to know.
