After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Chapter 507 Pain

That's it!

That's true.

But Xiao Lin still said, "Dreams are all illusions, temporary illusions caused by people's thoughts. You don't need to take it too seriously. He Yi won't do that! No matter if he doesn't get married in the future, at least he won't die young. After all, he's so healthy, he has no problems. Don't think too much, it's not good for the fetus."

"Ok, I know."

"Yes, it's tough on Chenchen."

"Yes, I really feel heartbroken, Xiao Lin. I feel like I don't deserve to be a mother. If he grows up and understands that I abandoned him like this, he will definitely be very sad, and may even resent me. But I..." Gu Zhiyao sobbed again.

Xiao Lin gently put his arm around her shoulder and said, "It's okay. Chenchen is so sensible and loves you so much. He won't blame you. He'll only feel more sorry for you."

But it was precisely because of this that Gu Zhiyao felt even more suffocated by her heavy heart.

Every day after that, she felt incredibly guilty looking at her son, and the little guy would always comfort her, so understanding that it broke her heart and brought her to tears.

And so, a week passed.

I'm going back to China tomorrow.

This is a long-term stay, and there's no need for me to come back anytime soon.

Therefore, Gu Zhiyao and Xiao Lin said goodbye sadly.

"In my life, I have wronged too many people: you, Yifei, Chenchen, Niuniu, and even He Yi. Sometimes I think, would it be better if I had never come into this world? At least so many things wouldn't have happened, so many people wouldn't have been in trouble, and wouldn't have been saddened."

"Uh, don't be like this, Zhiyao!" Xiao Lin immediately raised his voice as well. "Your mindset seems to be a bit off again lately. You have to remember that you're pregnant. Once you start overthinking, it's easy to get stuck in a rut and not be able to get out of it. You've endured so much pain and hardship before. You have to keep being strong. Even if not for yourself, then for your children? Chenchen, Niuniu, and this one in your belly, they are all so fragile. If they don't have their mother, they will be so pitiful."

Xiao Lin comforted and encouraged her, saying that he was genuinely worried about her.

She's been through so much; her life was already broken, and now she has to bear all sorts of guilt and self-blame. He's really afraid she won't be able to hold on.

"Also, you don't owe me anything, really. I told you before, I was very happy during those years. As for Yifei and the others, I think they felt the same way, or you could say it's everyone's mission. That's how it is when people come into this world; it's impossible for everything to go smoothly. Who doesn't experience both suffering and joy? If you want to go back, I support you, but I hope you're doing well, Zhiyao. That's my only request and expectation! Don't make me worry, okay?" Xiao Lin held Gu Zhiyao's hand and continued to speak earnestly.

Gu Zhiyao's beautiful eyes welled up with tears. After a long while, she nodded and said, "I understand, Brother Xiao Lin. I will miss you. If you're not so busy, why don't you come back and see us? Even just a quick meeting or a meal would be fine."

"Yes, I will. I've worked hard for half my life, and it's time for me to enjoy life. Sometimes I think, what's the point of making so much money? So I'll go back often."

Hearing this, Gu Zhiyao finally felt a little better. Actually, she wanted to tell him that if he had the chance, he should find a like-minded partner with whom he could have mutual affection. But she felt that it would be useless to say it and might even evoke some sadness, so she simply held back.

Gu Zhiyao went to bed very late that night, and woke up after only a few hours.

Seeing that she didn't seem to be in good spirits, Xiao Lin understood her feelings and didn't say anything. He just told her to take care of herself and be careful after returning to China, and then gave a few more instructions to Chenchen and Niuniu.

Niu Niu is a grateful and sentimental girl who remembers everyone who has helped her. At this moment, she is also reluctant to say goodbye to Xiao Lin and keeps telling him to come back to China to see her when he has time.

"Yes, your mother already told me last night. I'll try to go back in a month, or at most two months, and then we can video chat regularly," Xiao Lin said with a smile.

"Great, it's a deal then, we'll wait for you."

"it is good!"

Reluctantly, we parted ways in the end.

As the airport announcements played, Gu Zhiyao, along with Chenchen and Niuniu, headed towards the boarding gate, boarded the plane, and flew straight to their homeland.

It was already evening when I got back to China.

Yifei came to pick me up at the airport.

Niu Niu ran up to him eagerly, saying excitedly, "Brother Yifei, we finally meet again! Time flies!"

Looking at her charming and adorable appearance, Yifei picked her up and said happily, "It's because Uncle Time heard our wishes and specially moved quickly so that we could meet sooner."

After saying that, he hugged her and spun her around. Niu Niu giggled happily and exclaimed how exciting and wonderful it was.

After walking around for a while, Yifei finally put her down and said with a smile, "How are you? Don't you feel dizzy? Will you dare to do this again next time?"

"No, no, I don't feel dizzy! Hmm, I want it again next time! I want it now, Brother Yifei, quick, pick me up and lift me high again!" It seems the little girl is a bit carried away with her joy.

Gu Zhiyao then added, "This is an airport, a public place, so we need to be careful. Okay, Niu Niu, don't make things difficult for Yi Fei. Aren't you always worried about his injury? He can't do these heavy things often."

"Oh, right, then let's try again next time, Brother Yifei, when you're fully recovered."

"Hmm, I'll play with you for a long time then?"

"it is good!"

Yifei completely let go of Niu Niu and came to Gu Zhiyao. He gazed at her for a long time, his eyes filled with undisguised joy and anticipation. Suddenly, he hugged her tightly, his voice choked with emotion, "Zhiyao, welcome home!"

Gu Zhiyao's body stiffened slightly at first, then relaxed, and she replied, "Yes, Yifei, thank you, we'll both be fine!"

Before long, Yifei let go of Gu Zhiyao, said a few words of praise to Chenchen, and then took the airport trolley with the luggage from Chenchen, saying happily, "Let's go get in the car!"

The four of them walked out of the airport terminal in high spirits.

Unbeknownst to them, He Yi was also nearby.

He Yi naturally knew that Gu Zhiyao and the children were returning to China today, and that Yi Fei would be picking them up at the airport, but he still couldn't help but sneak over as well. He saw Gu Zhiyao and the children come out of the arrival hall, saw them meet Yi Fei, saw Yi Fei holding Niu Niu and lifting her high, making Niu Niu very happy, and then saw Yi Fei hug her tightly in his arms.

As he watched them walk out of the airport like a family, his body went completely limp, and he stumbled and bumped into a pillar next to him.

"President!" Quan Xinyu hurriedly supported him, his heart heavy with unspeakable sorrow.
