Chapter 691 The best sleeping pill

It seemed like Gu Yan had indeed ceased to be faithful to him. However, Mo Yichen’s mind was in a mess now and he did not know what to do next. He did not even have a clue what he should do to change his current situation.

His mind was blank, but soon he felt a surge of anger rising up from his body that was about to engulf himself. He stepped on the accelerator without buckling up and the car shot out like an arrow leaving a bowstring. Just like that, he left Annan City. It was as if he had never been here.

Before Gu Yan could finish her sentence, Mo Yichen already hung up the phone. She had wanted to explain to him why it was not a good time now. Hearing the busy tone, she slowly lost herself in thought. “What’s wrong with Mo Yichen recently?” She also felt very wronged. What had she done wrong for him to treat her so coldly recently.

She had no idea. Could it be that he was mad at her for not intending to tell Li Yunhong the truth now?

On second thought, she figured that perhaps it was just because Mo Yichen wanted to marry her. He had indeed had this idea for a long time, which was not a secret for her. But still, she did not think that it was a good time to reveal the truth now.

She assumed that Mo Yichen might have misunderstood what she meant. She had wanted to explain it to him nicely, but he did not give her the chance.

Gu Yan was very touched that Mo Yichen wanted to marry her, but a marriage was no longer as important to her as before. In her opinion, as long as Mo Yichen loved her and treated her wholeheartedly, that was already enough.

The reason why she did not want to tell Li Yunhong the truth right now was because Li Yunhong had some misunderstandings about her. The contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was always complicated, which might take a lifetime to solve it, so Gu Yan was not in a hurry, but that did not mean that she would never tell Li Yunhong.

At this moment, Mo Yichen was speeding along the highway. Fortunately, there were very few cars on the road at this moment, and he could floor the accelerator without worry. His mind was in a mess, but he also did not know what he should think about.

This time, he had spent much less time returning home. When he got home, it was already midnight. As soon as he drove into the yard, Li Yunhong knew it was her son. Not only did he come back home so late, but he also had not called in advance. She had called him a few times, but he had not answered any of them.

Li Yunhong had been worried about him and could not sleep well. When she heard the sound of the car coming from the yard, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, she could not help scolding him, saying that he was already a child’s father and should not make her worry anymore.

When she got up from bed and walked out of her room, she saw Mo Yichen entering the living room. She was full of complaints and did not even bother to look at her son’s expression before she started to scold him.

“Why did you come back so late? You should let me know beforehand. I’ve been worried about you all day. You’re an adult, but why do you keep making me worried about you…”

She talked on and on, but Mo Yichen ignored her and went straight to his bedroom. When he reached the door, he stood there with his hand on the door and looked at his mother motionlessly. Only then did Li Yunhong notice her son’s awful expression.

She immediately stopped talking, feeling both shocked and uneasy.

“What’s wrong?” she asked with concern. She reached out, wanting to feel Mo Yichen’s forehead, but Mo Yichen dodged impatiently. He was not in the mood to talk with her right now. Furthermore, his mother also reminded him of why he was upset with Gu Yan today.

Even though he was in a fret, he knew that Li Yunhong would not leave him alone without getting a reasonable explanation, so he could only say, “Mom, I’m fine. I want to sleep now.”

Li Yunhong could tell that her son was really annoyed today, but she did not think much of it. After all, Gu Yan was not home today, so Mo Yichen must have had some trouble in work. It seemed that the old fox gave Mo Yichen a hard time again.

At the thought of this, Li Yunhong gnashed her teeth in anger. He had damaged the interests of their son’s company before, and now he wanted their son to be exhausted to death?

Although Li Yunhong was angry, she still turned around and returned to her room. Her son looked tired out. She needed to find another time to talk to him.

But she still couldn’t fall asleep. Her mind was filled with the image of the old fox all night.

As for Mo Yichen, although he had sent Li Yunhong away and the entire world had quietened down, this sort of silence made him feel even more scared. It was as if Gu Yan were being in every corner of the room, shouting in his ears that she did not love him anymore.

His head hurt so much that it felt like it was going to split apart. Perhaps, alcohol was the best sleeping pill right now, so he went to his wine cabinet, took out a bottle of aged wine and started drinking alone.

Gu Yan was a little tired. She really could not understand Mo Yichen’s thoughts and also did not know what he was thinking about right now. While trying to figure out the reason, she gradually fell asleep on the sofa. Because she had drunk some wine with Qi Changfeng, she slept very soundly and did not wake up till morning.

Sunlight shone in through the window. Gu Yan’s eyelashes twitched a little. She was already awake, but she did not immediately get up. Indeed, drinking alcohol was bad. Yesterday, she did not drink much, but now, she felt as if her head was going to explode. Lying on the sofa without moving, she had to take her time.

Now she was completely sober and remembered that she had truly lost her composure in front of Qi Changfeng yesterday. Fortunately, Qi Changfeng had stopped her in time, or she might be looped.
