Chapter 813 - We Were Divorced (1)
Hearing these words after so many years transported Xu Weilai back to the moment they first met at the birthday party.
The noble and unapproachable Gu Yu. Xu Weilai, the girl bearing wonderful fantasy over her betrothed. The cruel words that spilled from his mouth.
Xu Weilai tilted her head slightly.
She tried hard to recall the emotion and the sorrow in her heart back then, but the memory was so foggy that she hardly remembered.
She recalled that she once promised herself that she would definitely not fall in love with him again if she could turn back time. The heavens really gave her such a chance.
Xu Weilai opened her mouth, “I’m not interested in you.”
The corners of Gu Yu’s lips twitched, and involuntarily scorn escaped his lips. His eyes filled with a mean of ridicule. “Assistant Lin has already reported to me you will only sign the agreement when you see me in person. I refused to go to you, but you came to me.”
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the container in her hand again, and his ridicule intensified, “You tried to curry Grandpa’s favour when you can’t get to me. Since you’ve said these words, shouldn’t you at least act according to what you said?”
Before Xu Weilai could answer, Mrs. Lin had already called out to her, “Miss Xu, you’re here... Grandpa was just talking about you, come in, come in.”
Perhaps Mrs. Lin was sent when Grandpa Gu heard of the conversation exchange outside the door between Gu Yu and Xu Weilai.
She knew that Mrs. Lin was afraid that Gu Yu would say something unpleasant to her again.
Although Xu Weilai felt nothing from what Gu Yu said now, she was still thankful for Mrs. Lin’s appearance. She nodded at her and showed her the container she brought with her. “I made some soup for Grandpa.”
“You’re so filial.”
Mrs. Lin praised as she walked in with Xu Weilai.
Gu Yu threw a frosty towards Xu Weilai’s back figure, then expressionlessly looked away. He raised his hand and took a deep drag on his cigarette.
He was inexplicably frustrated, as he could not tell whether he was bothered by this woman’s pestering, or because she told him she wasn’t interested in him.

Grandpa Gu looked fine, but looked even better when he saw Xu Weilai.
His face was filled with satisfaction after Xu Weilai fed him half a bowl of the soup she brought him. He wasn’t stingy with his praise. “Lil’ Weilai’s soup is so delicious. It’s ten thousand times better than Mrs. Lin’s Soup!”
He acted more and more like a kid as he got older. Now that he came back from the brink of death, he became an old boy around families and peoples he was comfortable with.
Xu Weilai wiped the corners of his lips with a towel. Then she held his hand when she talked to him and asked him about his physical and mental condition with a smile.

She felt relieved when she made sure that he had recovered well. Then, she took out a document from her big bag.
Grandpa Gu looked towards document, a bad feeling arose from his heart.
“This is the agreement on transfer of share ownership.” Xu Weilai held the document in her hand and said it in a gentle tone. She looked into Grandpa Gu’s eyes and said each word clearly and seriously, “I’ve signed it. All the shares of the Gu Corporation in my hand will be transferred to you.”
Gu Yu had just finished smoking and was pushing the door open to enter the ward when she said this.
Xu Weilai lowered her eyes and then looked up again. “Of course, it was not without condition...”
Gu Yu stopped in his tracks. Chill flashed through his eyes.
She did not sign the agreement because she wanted an even better offer. Since he refused to see her, she came to see his grandfather.
