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

Chapter 356 Cherish

“I know, I just feel…” He Yi paused for a moment, then perked up again, “You’re right, I shouldn’t let her influence me. Although Gu Zhiyao hates me, she won’t hurt the innocent. Over the years, she has cared for and loved Chenchen and Niuniu, trying every means to bring them back to her side. She treats the children as her children, and she treats me as herself.”

Seeing He Yi's unusually dramatic emotional swings, Quan Xinyu guessed what he was thinking, but didn't say much. He couldn't very well say directly, "President, after you divorce Ms. Zheng, then go and treat Gu Zhiyao well, let her feel your love, and maybe she will soften slowly."

First of all, it's unclear whether He Yi will really divorce Zheng Yuanxi, and I think the possibility of them divorcing is not high, otherwise it wouldn't have dragged on for so long!

Secondly, Gu Zhiyao might not even care!

Even if they once loved each other, so many years have passed and so many things have happened, each one piercing their heart. Even the deepest love will fade, especially since she has such a good choice as Xiao Lin by her side, or at the very least, Yi Fei.

Yifei is also a very rare and good match.

And thinking about the possibility that Gu Zhiyao might actually get together with Yifei in the future, or even get married, wouldn't she have to call He Yi "uncle"? President He would probably be so angry he'd want to vomit blood.

He Yi rolled down the window and lit a cigarette.

Quan Xinyu silently stayed by his side.

After he finished his cigarette, he instructed Quan Xinyu, "Go and check on Gu Zhiyao's place."

However, when they arrived at Gu Zhiyao's villa, they saw a car coming out of it.

"President, it seems like Gu Zhiyao is sitting in the car," Quan Xinyu reported.

He Yi saw it too and told Quan Xinyu to follow.

The car stopped after about half an hour; it turned out to be a temple.

Gu Zhiyao got out of the car, and Aunt Hua followed suit.

What are they doing at the temple?

Quanxin Yu's car didn't dare to get too close, but he could still get a general idea and noticed that there were many people entering and leaving the temple, and they were all Chinese.

He Yi was also full of doubts and slowly walked over. Quan Xinyu quickly followed and they entered the temple together.

This temple was actually built specifically to support a certain faith among the Chinese, and the monks in the temple were all Chinese who voluntarily became monks.

In China, many people place their hopes on deities. When they have any wishes or encounter any troubles or hardships, they are accustomed to seeking blessings and protection from the gods. This custom has spread to other countries.

Gu Zhiyao had heard about this place from Aunt Hua before, so today she came here with Aunt Hua to transcribe scriptures and pray for the unborn child.

She spent a full hour copying a scripture that was several hundred words long. Kneeling before the Bodhisattva, looking at the sacred bronze statue, she couldn't help but let her tears flow freely.

Aunt Hua knelt beside her, looking at her pale, haggard, and tearful face. Remembering the serious injury she had just suffered, she whispered, "Don't be like this. Even if there is a mistake, it is that man's fault. He forced you and made you suffer. Baby will understand you. You have copied the scriptures so diligently. If you pray well, Baby will come back to your side in the future."

can you?

Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but think of the child she had miscarried last time. She had lost the child because Zheng Yuanxi had forced her to take medicine. She was also a victim, so the baby wouldn't blame her and would come back again.

But since she was involved this time, is the baby still willing to forgive her and continue to choose her as his mother?

I doubt it. Who wants a heartless and cold-blooded mother?

“Come on, let’s begin,” Aunt Hua continued.

Gu Zhiyao looked at Aunt Hua, who was full of concern, and nodded, then put her hands together in a devout prayer.

He Yi saw all of this.

The same applies to Quanxin Yu.

Quan Xinyu was deeply moved. Watching Gu Zhiyao repeatedly kowtow to the Bodhisattva, he couldn't help but say, "President, you see, I wasn't wrong. She still loves the baby very much. Losing the baby is the most painful thing for her. Her eyes are swollen from crying, which shows how sad she is. I used to hear some old ladies in my hometown say that if a pregnant woman unfortunately miscarries, she will copy scriptures to pray for the fetus. They believe that the fetus will remember the mother and will come back to find her when it is reincarnated. Although this is superstition, it seems to make sense. Therefore, many people believe it. Perhaps this is a kind of hope and longing in their hearts. Gu Zhiyao also hopes that this baby can return to her womb."

He Yi remained silent, his eyes fixed on Gu Zhiyao, his emotions surging, a wave of tenderness he hadn't even noticed washing over him.

After a while, Gu Zhiyao finally finished praying. Aunt Hua helped her to the temple keeper to donate some money for incense oil, receive a lucky charm, and then leave the temple.

The car sped away.

He Yi returned to the car and sat there for a long time, his mind filled with the scenes he had just seen in the temple. Gu Zhiyao was diligently copying scriptures, kneeling before the Bodhisattva to pray and kowtow, her eyes red and swollen from crying, her whole body trembling.

He actually didn't know about this custom; he only discovered it today.

He couldn't help but think of the child from last time. Was she also making these kinds of prayers, just like today, so that the child could come back?

I think so.

When Gu Zhiyao returned home, Chenchen and Niuniu had just come home from school. Yifei had brought them back. Upon seeing her mother, Niuniu ran over and asked, "Mom, where did you go? Didn't you say you were going to wait until you were better before going back to work? Are you alright? Your eyes are so red. Did your boss bully you?"

Looking at her daughter's concerned face, Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but recall the day when the little girl had a tiff with her because of He Yi, and Yi Fei comforted her by saying that Niu Niu still cared about her.

Indeed!

Gu Zhiyao felt a warmth in her heart and gently pulled her daughter along, saying, "Mom hasn't gone to work yet. Mom will go to work next week. I just went to take care of some things with Grandma Hua."

"Then why are you crying?"

"Yes, it's because of some things, but it hasn't affected my health, so don't worry." Gu Zhiyao looked at Chenchen, indicating that he didn't need to worry, and finally her gaze fell on Yifei, "Yifei, thank you for your hard work, let's have dinner here tonight."

Yifei's eyes were as gentle as ever. "Okay. I'll take Chenchen and Niuniu back to their room first. It seems like the kindergarten has a paper airplane folding project for them today. I did it when I was little, so I can teach them."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Everyone went inside.

Yifei took the two little ones to wash their faces and hands and change their clothes. This wasn't the first time he had done it, so he was quite skilled at it. Gu Zhiyao, on the other hand, was called to the bedroom to rest by Aunt Hua.

She was indeed tired, and her body wasn't fully recovered, so she decided to take a good rest.

Xiao Lin returned around 7 o'clock.

Seeing Yifei, he was taken aback at first, then greeted him warmly, "Yifei, you're here. Have dinner here tonight."

"Okay. Brother Xiao, are you back so early today?" Chenchen and Niu Niu had just finished their crafts and were watching TV when Yifei walked up to Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin put his things away, poured two glasses of wine, the first one for Yi Fei, and then everyone went to the small garden.
