Chapter 252 Abandoning Xu Rou
After leaving alone, Li Yan was filled with helplessness and melancholy.
Her steps were somewhat heavy, as if each step carried a heavy burden of worries.
The streets were bustling with people and traffic, but Li Yan seemed to be in a lonely world.
She was walking aimlessly when, unexpectedly, she saw Xu Rou in front of a nearby coffee shop.
Xu Rou, dressed in an elegant dress with her long hair flowing over her shoulders, looked at Li Yan in surprise: "Li Yan, what are you doing here?"
Li Yan was slightly taken aback, a complex emotion welling up inside her: "I was just passing by."
Xu Rou smiled awkwardly: "Really, what a coincidence."
The last person she wants to see right now is Li Yan, and Li Yan feels the same way.
Just then, Gu Tingyu and Gu Tingyan, who had followed, also saw Xu Rou.
However, a hint of wariness was revealed in Gu Tingyan's eyes.
He no longer has any lingering feelings for Xu Rou, but her schemes with Zhou Zeran force him to be on guard.
Gu Tingyu looked at Xu Rou, and his heart stirred slightly.
Despite his efforts to remain calm, the emotions deep within him compelled him to get closer to her.
His feet moved toward Xu Rou involuntarily, as if drawn by an invisible force.
Seeing Gu Tingyu's actions, Li Yan felt a surge of disappointment.
On the bustling city streets, the sun shines brightly on the crowds, but it cannot dispel the tension and anxiety that permeates the air.
Li Yan stood on the side of the bustling street, her eyes filled with helplessness and disappointment, as if a huge boulder was pressing down on her heart.
"Sigh, Xiao Yu, how can he be so stubborn?" Li Yan shook her head slightly and sighed softly.
She knew she couldn't stop the surging emotions within Gu Tingyu, so rather than continuing to get entangled in this chaotic situation, she decided to leave first.
So she resolutely turned around, took Gu Tingyan's arm, and walked forward with firm steps.
"Let's go, Ayan." Li Yan's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable force.
Her posture was upright, like a lighthouse standing firm in a storm, guiding the way.
Gu Tingyan followed silently behind her, a hint of pleasure flashing in his eyes.
This was Gu Tingyu's own choice, and now he can finally have all of his mother's attention by himself.
Gu Tingyu stood there, watching Li Yan and Gu Tingyan's departing figures, feeling a struggle in his heart.
His gaze darted back and forth between Xu Rouhe and her receding figure, as if he were engaged in a difficult tug-of-war.
Gu Tingyu's heart was like a turbulent sea, with various emotions colliding.
Finally, he remembered the disappointed look in Li Yan's eyes before she left; that look was like a sharp sword, deeply piercing his heart.
"I can't let Li Yan down again," Gu Tingyu thought to himself.
He gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, abandoned Xu Rou, and turned to chase after Li Yan and Gu Tingyan.
His steps were hurried yet firm, chasing the last vestige of reason within him.
Xu Rou stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.
As she watched Gu Tingyu turn and leave without hesitation, the pain in her heart surged like a flood bursting its banks.
In that instant, she felt as if she had been abandoned by the world, feeling lonely and helpless.
"Why? Why does he always treat me like this?" Xu Rou kept asking herself, her lips trembling slightly, her hands clenched into fists.
