Chapter 695 Can you do it?

When Gu Yan returned home, she wanted to empty her mind. She had been busy the entire morning without eating anything. Now that she was home, she felt hungry, but she really didn’t have the mood to cook. She also knew that there was nothing edible at home.

Actually, she did not want to stay at home alone, because every minute and second here would remind her of how happy they used to be, and now how ridiculous it was for they suspected each other.

Mo Yichen suspected Gu Yan, and Gu Yan also suspected that he might think she had betrayed him. What an ironic scene it was! Gu Yan found it ridiculous, but she had no way to stop herself from thinking about these things. She felt that she was crazy. As long as she confronted something related to Mo Yichen, she would lose herself.

Just like now, she could no longer concentrate on her work because of the messy thoughts in her mind. In the past, she has regarded herself not as a person who would let her emotions interfere with her work, but after going through recent events, she knew she was.

She smiled bitterly. Now she was no longer able to keep her life and work separate. Even though she had always thought that she could understand the boundary between work and life, it was no longer the case now. She felt that she couldn’t separate the two, since her rhythm was too easily disrupted.

Just like this time, when Gu Yan returned to Annan City, her main objective was to increase the profits for her studio. However, her current actions had gone against her original intention. Her initial dream did not change, and she still wanted to be a designer, but her life had changed.

She knew that there were too many things mixed into her life, which had never existed before. These things made her feel as though she’d gradually lost herself.

“Miss, Miss, we’re here!” It was not until the taxi driver called out to her that Gu Yan realized that she was lost in thought again.

She paid the bill and got out of the car. She did not go to the supermarket to buy food, but to a nearby market instead. Right now, she just wanted to feel the hustle and bustle in society. She couldn’t stay alone at this moment, or she might go insane.

At this moment, there were not many people left in the market, but there were still many vendors who did not close their stalls, which were already enough for Gu Yan. In any case, she was the only one at home and did not need to make a big meal. She only needed to have a full stomach.

She stood before the stall selling meat and picked out a piece of meat. While the vendor was weighing the meat for her, her phone rang. She hurriedly fumbled to retrieve it from her bag.

It was Qi Changfeng.

“Why does Qi Changfeng call me now?” Gu Yan was bewildered at first, but then she remembered that the person who had accompanied her to drink and send her home yesterday was exactly him.

However, this man immediately reminded her of Mo Yichen’s recent ambiguous attitude. “Did Mo Yichen really believe in Li Yunhong? If yes, what should I do? Whether should I explain things out to Mo Yichen or not?”

She had no idea. The phone kept ringing, Gu Yan suddenly realized that she was just only to answer his call. There was no need to think about too much. So she pressed the answer button and said, “Hello?”

Qi Changfeng frowned slightly after hearing the noise on the line. What was Gu Yan doing? Thinking of Gu Yan’s weirdness yesterday, he couldn’t help being worried and wondered whether she had done something out of line again.

“What’s up? I’m buying vegetables!” Gu Yan said loudly.

The market was very noisy, so she raised her voice. At the very least, Qi Changfeng would not worry about her any more if he got to know where she was.

Gu Yan was not sure whether she should keep a distance from Qi Changfeng or not. She thought the distance between them was what that of friends’. Was she supposed to stop contacting Qi Changfeng just in order to make Li Yunhong be rested assured? Would she be able to succeed in doing that?

Gu Yan understood that too many thoughts about this problem were useless. Mo Yicheng had not told anything about his inside thoughts to her, which let her not have any chance to frankly talk with him about these things. Gu Yan supposed she might image too much, maybe only Li Yunhong had this thought and suspect but Mo Yichen did not.

Furthermore, ever since she moved to Annan City, the person who had helped her the most wasn’t Mo Yichen, but Qi Changfeng. Even though Qi Changfeng had done her a lot of favors, he had never asked for anything in return.

If she really broke off with him just for the sake of the Mo’s family, she would even look down on herself. It was unacceptable to her. In her eyes, this kind of thing was unjust.

However, thinking so much right now would do no good at all. Mo Yichen did not tell her anything, so it was inappropriate for her to bring this up. Maybe she was just imagining things, and only Li Yunhong was suspicious of her, but Mo Yichen didn’t.

Gu Yan had no clue about Mo Yichen’s thoughts, and she also wanted to stop keeping her mind on him. Since she had returned to Annan City, she would put aside everything about the Mo’s family for the time being.

“What’s up?” Gu Yan did not know why Qi Changfeng was calling her at this time, but right now she was indeed having trouble holding the vegetables and the phone with hands at the same time.

There was nothing important Qi Changfeng had to say. Gu Yan had drunk too much wine yesterday, so he just called to make sure if she was fine. But now, she must be in a good state, after all, she had gone to the market.

“Nothing. I just want to see what you are doing and if you have time to have a meal with me.”

Since Gu Yan was fine, there was really no need for him to bring up what had happened yesterday that had caused Gu Yan to be unhappy again. So he changed the topic and proposed to treat her a meal, a thing that he’d love to do at any time. As long as Gu Yan was willing to eat with him, he would definitely go.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t go. I feel dizzy today and couldn’t even handle my work. I plan to go home and have a good sleep.”
