The Real Rich Daughter Who Was Replaced - Chapter 17

“What did you say? Divorce cooling-off period? What is this?”

Bai Su looked at the Civil Affairs Bureau’s staff in disbelief. Was this a joke?

“Madam, here’s the thing. Starting from January 1, this year, new marriage laws and regulations have been implemented. One of them is to set a divorce cooling-off period. Divorce needs to be applied first. If neither party has any objections, the divorce will take effect thirty days later. In other words, there’s a month of a cooling-off period.”

Although it was a little absurd, rules were rules.

“It’s like this. We’re already very calm, so calm that we can’t be any calmer. Can’t you make an exception?” Bai Su had a dejected expression. It was rare for Mu Chen to have thought things through. What if he went back on his word in the next 30 days?

“Sorry, the rules are the rules. Please fill in the application form here.”

The staff member was in a difficult position. Even if this really didn’t make sense, he could only follow the rules.

The divorce was delayed just like that.

Bai Su asked for two days of leave from Mu Chen and helped Gu Yan settle the admission procedures. She found an attending physician and discussed the specific time for the surgery.

She had always hoped that Gu Yan could leave the wheelchair and run around as healthily as before. This way, the guilt in her heart would lessen a lot and she could also try to have a good chat with him.

Gu Yan was very important to her, but she didn’t love him.

After she finished dealing with all sorts of miscellaneous matters, she returned to the ward, but Gu Yan wasn’t in the ward. After the two of them quarreled that day, although they tacitly stopped talking about it, it didn’t mean that nothing had happened.

After asking around, Bai Su found out from the young nurse that Gu Yan had pushed his wheelchair to the back garden.

He had never liked crowded places. Just like before, he liked to find places to hide.

When Bai Su arrived at the small garden, she immediately saw Gu Yan, who was in the corner. His back was facing her and in front of him, there was a cluster of perfectly opened tulips. The young man was sitting quietly in a wheelchair. The scene looked cozy and peaceful. Bai Su slowed down her footsteps. She couldn’t bear to go forward and ruin the vibe.

When Gu Yan turned around, she was stunned again.

Gu Yan had changed into a white shirt. The warm sunlight shone on the young man’s gentle facial features. At that moment, Bai Su felt like she had returned to many years ago when she first met Gu Yan.

He looked elegant and refined.

“You’re a little late. Come here, I have something to tell you.” He smiled and waved at Bai Su.

Bai Su walked closer and squatted down to look at Gu Yan.

He looked at Bai Su with gentle eyes and said in a soft voice, “I’m sorry for making you worry during this period of time. I’ve figured it out. Whether the surgery succeeds or not, I have to live on.”

Bai Su was stunned and relieved.

It had been two years, and he had finally figured it out! He was finally willing to face it!

In the past two years, she had been cautious and treaded on thin ice every day because she was afraid that the slightest mistake would hurt Gu Yan’s fragile feelings.

She was too tired, and she didn’t expect that she had the chance to finally be relieved of the burden.

“Why are you crying?”

Gu Yan shook his head and raised his hand to gently wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes. He took out a ring from his pocket. “I prepared this beforehand and never had the chance to give it to you. Perhaps now isn’t the best time, but I’ve really thought it through. I hope you can accept it.”

Unlike the previous time, when he forced Bai Su, Gu Yan looked at Bai Su sincerely this time.

Bai Su was confused.

Of course, she couldn’t agree to Gu Yan’s proposal. Firstly, there was no romance between them. Secondly, she had yet to divorce Mu Chen. How could she start another marriage?

However, Gu Yan would undergo surgery tomorrow, so she couldn’t disappoint him.

Gu Yan looked at Bai Su gently and pulled her hand to his. He stroked it gently and put the ring on her ring finger.

“If you don’t say anything, I’ll take that as a yes.”

Bai Su became even more anxious.

No, she couldn’t accept Gu Yan’s ring just like that.

Before she could get up, she heard a shrill female voice coming from behind!

“Bai Su! What are you doing here? You’re actually cheating on my brother!”

Mu Xing came to the hospital to visit her friends. It was still a little early to go back, so she walked to the back garden and strolled around. She happened to see Bai Su squatting beside the wheelchair. She looked very intimate with the man in the wheelchair.

Anger rose in her heart!
