Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle - Chapter 290 Too different

“Your father’s birthday is in a few weeks, “An Qinyan replied. “Don’t forget to buy a gift and visit him. I don’t want to hear that you wished him through the phone like last time.”

Although the whole family was pretty peaceful, the two exes still behaved like they were at each other’s throats. Thankfully, they tried to stop doing this before children.

“Fine, “Lu Xuan exhaled. “If you say, I will personally go to his office and wish him a happy birthday and convince my old man to take retirement because he needs it.”

An Qinyan suddenly said, “It’s not like we old generation doesn’t want to leave work, it’s just work that doesn’t leave us. If Shangyan was here….”

“Mom, “Lu Xuan stopped before she could say anything. He knew how much his mother wanted Gu Shangyan to join the family company. She did so much for him. When Gu Shangyan was in high school, she would tell him about different architecture competitions and they would enthusiastically discuss them. He knew that Gu Shangyan was his mother’s first choice to take over the company but his brother was not there. Gu Shangyan had a life of his own.

“I’m not complaining son, “An Qinyan sighed. “I just miss him.”

“He has a life in Europe, “Lu Xuan reminded her “He works in one of the excellent architectural firms there. He is living his best life.”

It had been seven years and his mother had to finally realise that her other children had their life and they wouldn’t come back to her just because she wanted them to. She needed to see who had been with her all these years. Him. Not them. It was not that he didn’t love them, he did. But those two were too involved in their own life to give a damn about others. So, his mother needed to stop thinking and start accepting.

“That’s why I always stop when I want him to come home, “An Qinyan whispered as if she could see the thoughts clear on his face. “Yanxi misses him too much.”

“That’s why uncle wants to take early retirement, “Lu Xuan smirked. Don’t get him wrong. He was just glad that at least someone was considering retirement and travelling to enjoy life.

“He just wants to live a comfortable life now, “An Qinyan said with a smile. “We both have worked too much in our life that we want a break.”

“Then, take a break. I’m here, “Lu Xuan reminded her.

“You are not ready, Lu Xuan, “An Qinyan suddenly said. “You can’t handle business all on your own yet. You need time. And you need to enjoy your life too. You are just twenty-five. I don’t want you to only know work all your life like me. Meet new people. Make new friends. There is so much to do than just working.”

“Yes, mom.” Lu Xuan said. He had so much to prove now. How could he live a fun life? Sometimes, he wished that he had an amazing life like Gu Shangyan was living in Italy.

People don’t lie when they say that something only looks beautiful from far away.

“This is enough!” Gu Shangyan said, banging his hand on the table.

“Gu Shangyan, what is enough?” Yoona asked him, angrily meeting his eyes. The benefit of being a tall woman was that she didn’t need to crane her neck to look at him.

“Yoona, I gave you all my life!” Gu Shangyan shouted. “I want to settle down now!”

This drama was something that was happening in their life on a daily basis. There was just no end button to it. It’s not that they loved fighting. It’s just that fighting had become inevitable.

“Shangyan, you know that is not possible right now, “Yoona answered. “Modeling career is short term. I’m just twenty-five. I need to take this opportunity. Let’s move to the US.”

“No!” He was clear on his decision. He was not moving to the USA.

“What do you mean by no?”Yoona asked him. “I left London and moved to Italy because your work demanded so. I am giving and giving and giving. It’s my time that I expect something in return.”

“China and Italy were options, Yoona. You chose Italy for me, “Gu Shangyan answered him. “If you sacrificed. So did I! I sacrificed seven years of my life too. “

“Shangyan, you can’t say this, “Yoona said. She couldn’t believe that he said this. Was being in a relationship meant he sacrificed his life? Oh my god, what was wrong with him?

Gu Shangyan took a step ahead and asked her, “Why not? If you can make me count everything you did for me I can do it too! Isn’t that what you were doing?”

Yoona pursed her lips. After keeping mum for a while, she asked, “What’s the problem with moving to the US?”

“I don’t like that fucking country!” Gu Shangyan replied.

“Okay. Fine. Let’s take a break.” Yoona suggested. “You want to go back to China. You can do so while I will go to Newyork.”

He knew that she was giving him an ultimatum and he didn’t like it a bit.

“Yoona, let’s get married, ” He begged her.

“We are so young to be married, “Yoona cried. She didn’t want to marry like this. Out of desperation. She wanted marriage when they were ready and in love with each other. Not like this. “We have to make a career first. How can we marry just like this?”

“Okay, “Gu Shangyan replied with a sigh. He couldn’t do one thing right.

“What do you mean by okay?” Yoona said as she looked at his calm and collected self.

“You can go to Newyork, “Gu Shangyan said finally. “I’m not moving there.”

“Long distance never survives, “Yoona told him.

“I have been in a long distance with my family and we are surviving all fine, ” He retorted.

“I’m not in the same category as your family,” Yoona said. “I’m your woman.”

“A woman who is scared to be my wife, “Gu Shangyan concluded. “You know what? Let’s break up. Last time, when you asked me to break up, I felt as if you lost your mind. But I think it makes sense now. Everything makes sense now.”

“You are breaking up with me because I’m chasing my dreams now?” Yoona asked.

“No, because we are no longer the same people who loved each other. We have changed. We don’t want the same things. We are just too different.”

Gu Shangyan knew that it was not a breakup. Just a small break that they needed to survive in their relationship. Sometimes, taking a step back was better than ruining something good.

Yoona suddenly smiled at him and nodded her head. “I think you are right. Breaking up is for the best.”
