After speaking with Shen Nianxu, Gu Tingyu turned and left.
Shen Nianxu was left standing there alone, staring blankly at his retreating figure.
Shen Nianxu stood there, her eyes fixed on Gu Tingyu's departing figure, her gaze filled with despair.
Her relationship with Gu Tingyu was like that of two parallel lines that would never intersect; they would never meet again.
My heart felt like it had been pounded hard, the pain unbearable, yet there was nothing I could do.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then slowly turned around and walked in the opposite direction from Gu Tingyu.
Shen Nianxu's steps were heavy and slow, each step as if bidding farewell to her past fantasies.
After leaving the theater, Gu Tingyu went to a flower shop.
The flower shop was filled with all kinds of beautiful and vibrant flowers.
He lingered among the bouquets for a while before finally choosing a bunch of carnations in full bloom.
Next, Gu Tingyu went to a time-honored pastry shop and bought Li Yan's favorite pastries.
Gu Tingyu hummed a little tune, seemingly in a good mood, and walked home with light steps.
When he got home, he saw Li Yan sitting on the sofa in the living room looking at her phone; Gu Tingyan had not yet returned.
With a smug smile on his face, he said, "Mom, look what I brought you back!"
Gu Tingyu held up the flowers and pastries in front of Li Yan, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Li Yan put down her phone, and when she saw the flowers and pastries, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Xiao Yu, why are you being so thoughtful today? Is there something you want?"
Li Yan had a faint smile on her lips.
Gu Tingyu is obedient, well-behaved, and sensible, which makes Li Yan, as his mother, extremely happy.
His mother's smile made Gu Tingyu even more smug.
He placed the flowers on the table, opened the pastry box, and said, "Mom, these are your favorite pastries. I queued for ages to buy them."
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at the door, seemingly waiting for Gu Tingyan to return so that he could witness his "great achievements."
Just then, Gu Tingyan returned.
As soon as he entered the room, he heard Gu Tingyu's boastful voice. Seeing the flowers and pastries on the table and Gu Tingyu's smug look, he couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.
"Tingyu, what amazing thing have you done? What, are you trying to cover up your failure in love with these things?"
Gu Tingyan crossed his arms and looked at Gu Tingyu with a half-smile.
Upon hearing this, Gu Tingyu glared at Gu Tingyan and said angrily, "Brother, what are you saying? I'm just being filial to Mom. Don't talk nonsense."
Li Yan found it strange to see the two brothers acting like this.
She laughed and said, "What's wrong with you two? Xiaoyu, what's this about your brother's failed relationship?"
Gu Tingyu glanced at Li Yan, then at Gu Tingyan, and pursed his lips.
It seems that Shen Nianxu's matter can no longer be kept secret, and he doesn't want Li Yan to be disappointed in him.
He sat up straight, his eyes becoming serious.
"Mom, you know, I might have been a little confused about relationships before."
I treated Shen Nianxu as a substitute for Xu Rou, and that was wrong of me.
But now I've thought it through. I don't want to be entangled in relationships anymore, and I won't be fickle.
Shen Nianxu and I parted amicably, and besides, I don't want to cause her any more harm.
Gu Tingyu's voice was firm and powerful, his eyes fixed on Li Yan, as if to express his determination.
Li Yan felt somewhat gratified after hearing Gu Tingyu's words.
