Upon hearing Gu Zhiqian’s words, Guan Meiyi nodded, “I really have to thank you. I said that I wouldn’t involve you no matter what, but still got you into this mess anyways. “It’s early in the morning now. I reckon that the matter between you and me will cause quite a stir once the sun gets up, and it will be quite an issue to you. I’m really sorry about this.”
Seeing that Guan Meiyi had finally spoken to him sincerely, Gu Zhiqian’s awkward expression became slightly better.
The weather was still very cold, and it was the chilliest time of the day in the wee hours of the morning. Guan Meiyi was only wearing a dress, and now she was walking with her arms crossed over her chest, and her head lowered.
Gu Zhiqian frowned and said in a low voice, “What a silly woman…”
Guan meiyi vaguely heard Gu Zhiqian scolding her. She turned around and saw the man take off his high-class suit jacket and throw it at Guan Meiyi expressionlessly.
Guan Meiyi gasped and caught the jacket subconsciously, “What are you doing?”
“Put it on ! Aren’t you cold?” Gu Zhiqian said impatiently. He was only wearing a slim white shirt now as he strode toward the police station.
Guan Meiyi was stunned. Then she looked at the suit jacket in her hand that still had the man’s body temperature. She pursed her lips and smiled. She put the jacket on without being pretentious. On such a chilly night, her heart was getting warmed up by having such a jacket.
This warm feeling made Guan Meiyi suddenly feel a little absent-minded. She couldn’t remember for how long she hadn’t experienced such warmth in her heart. Or it could be said that she had never felt this kind of warmth ever.
From the moment she could remember and understand things, she had been groomed by her parents to be like Wang Yazhi. At that time, her parents spoiled her and gave her the best of everything, but they didn’t allow her to have her own thoughts, her own hobbies, and her own decisions. Almost everything had been decided by her parents. She just had to follow the path they had decided on.
Gradually, Guan Meiyi became the person who had nothing but her arrogance. The only thing in her mind was to marry Ruan Zeyan, and this obsession was instilled into her by her parents as well at her very young age. She didn’t even know if she loved Ruan Zeyan, and the one thing that she knew was that she could become the winner of life only if she marry Ruan Zeyan.
However, when Ruan Zeyan married Ling Tianyan, the only obsession and goal in her heart instantly disappeared and she lost her direction completely. So she started to make a scene, started to act, started to be reluctant, and even worked with Huang Yuqing to frame Ling Tianya. What she did was not because she was upset about losing Ruan Zeyan, she just didn’t know what else she could do besides that.
In the end, as expected. She got punished for all the things she had done, so as her parents. The once arrogant Guan Meiyi and the glorious Guan family seemed to have changed overnight.
However, it had turned out to be the beginning of her nightmare that she had been sold to the He family by her father, and she was not understood by her own mother either.
Yet people usually only calmed down when they were in a desperate situation and at the bottom of the valley, thinking about what they wanted and what they should do.
Guan Meiyi thought that what she wanted the most was to have her own life.
After thinking through all of these, she turned into the current Guan Meiyi, who only lived for herself.
