Chapter 17 Let's Get Married

In the past three years, Gu Pan rarely thought about those people.His mother was really good to her. Even at that time, when he was injured, the Chen family didn't say a word of blame.Gu Pan has always felt guilty towards them.

Chen Shaochen looked at her gently, "She asked me when I would return to City D."

Gu Pan was shocked and gestured hesitantly, "When are you going to go back?"

Chen Shaochen looked at her, "Would you like to be with me?"

She didn't reply, she wasn't ready yet.

Chen Shaochen sighed, "There's no rush, I haven't handled the work well here either. Just wait."

At this time, there was a sound of opening the door.

Chen Shaochen frowned, "I'll go and have a look."

It was only then that Gu Pan remembered that she forgot to mention it.

Ye Zirui stood at the door with a big box in her arms, stared straight at the person in front of her, she opened her mouth, "Oh—Senior Brother Chen?"

Chen Shaochen smiled at her and said, "Long time no see."

Ye Zirui was distressed, "Senior Brother Chen, I didn't know you were here."

"You don't want to see me so much?" Chen Shaochen shook his head and said sadly.

Ye Zirui said again and again: "I look forward to your return every day!" She walked in and whispered in Gu Pan's ear, "Why don't you tell me that Brother Chen is back, so I won't come over."

Ye Zirui decided to stay in City B to develop, and now lives here in Gu Pan.She has become a super big light bulb.

What a sin.

When Chen Shaochen went back, Gu Pan sent him downstairs.She gestured, "Zi Rui lives with me."

"There is a caretaker for the two girls." He was a little helpless, "Panpan, did you never think that I would come back? So you have arranged everything properly, except that there is no place for me." Gentle There was a bit of sadness in the eyes.

Gu Pan gritted her teeth, not even daring to look into his eyes, "I'm not sure." She gestured slowly.

"Not sure? To me or to you?" His voice was rustling, like a breeze passing through the tip of his heart.

Gu Pan took a deep breath and looked straight at him, "I will never be able to speak, even if we are together, I will not be able to teach children to speak in the future—"

A lifetime of regret and helplessness.

Chen Shaochen's eyes sank, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved, "Isn't there me?" His tone was very light but every word hit Gu Pan's heart heavily, "What are you worrying about so much? You can't speak, you can write In the palm of my hand. I can teach the child to be the first to call your mother—”

Gu Pan was stunned, his eyes instantly filled with tears.

"I'll go first." He kissed her forehead.

Gu Pan hadn't had that dream for a long time, and for some reason, he dreamed of the night of Dongyao Mountain again tonight.

After struggling all night, her complexion was obviously very bad the next day.

Ye Zirui made breakfast, white porridge with side dishes, "Did you sleep well last night?"

Gu Pan nodded.

"Excited?" Ye Zirui joked.

Gu Pan glanced at her, and his eyes suddenly fell on her neck.Ye Zirui bent down slightly, put the chopsticks in front of her, and Gu Pan saw the hickey right away.She unconsciously thought about what happened to Zirui and Boss Zhou last night.

"Has Senior Brother Chen also returned to City B to develop?"

Gu Pan took the paper and pen on the table, "I work in a software company of a brother."

Ye Zirui rolled her eyes, "Going all the way back to City B, the ulterior motives are not in the bar."

Gu Pan was silent for a moment, and quickly wrote: "Zi Rui, change your clothes, the collar should be higher."

Ye Zirui lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, "The porridge is cold, eat it quickly."

After breakfast, Gu Pan went to wash the dishes.Ye Zirui said at the kitchen door: "I plan to look for a house in the next few days. Don't think too much, this place is a bit far from the studio."

Gu Pan nodded.

Chen Shaochen's company is more than 40 minutes' drive from T University.

Today he took Gu Pan to the company.His reason is to make up for the past.

As soon as they entered the office, someone came over excitedly, "Shaochen, the investment funds have been found, but the other party wants you to discuss it in person." After speaking, he saw Gu Pan, "Huh——the newcomer you recruited?"

Chen Shaochen glanced at him, "My girlfriend Gu Pan, my brother Qin Ke."

"Gu Pan——" Qin Ke was surprised, "I've heard the name for a long time!"

Chen Shaochen squinted at him, "Brother, didn't you say you found the funds?"

Qin Ke secretly smiled, "I don't want to talk to me, so please help me, this is the investor's information."

"Gu Pan, if you have time to talk, I know everything about Shao Chen in the past few years." Qin Ke waved his hand and went to work.

His office is not big, but it is very clean, and there are two pots of plants on the table.

Gu Pan's eyes fell on the plant, which was the succulent plant she had raised in his apartment before.

"It has been placed in my aunt's house for the past three years, and the plants are taken care of by my aunt and younger siblings."

Gu Pan gestured blankly, "You look really good."

Chen Shaochen took out a mug from the cabinet and poured her a glass of water.Gu Pan looked at the cup intently, it was just a pair with the one on his desk.He is so prepared.

"There are books on the bookcase." He said suddenly, "The few people outside are boring, so just ignore them."

Gu Pan giggled, in fact, she still wanted to know more about it.

There was a new message on the phone, it was from Mom and Dad, asking her how she was doing recently.Her father wanted to introduce outstanding young men to her again.

He looked up at the person who was working in front of him. He was more than two years older than himself. I wonder if his parents urged him too?
"Panpan—" Chen Shaochen stopped and called her in a deep voice.

Gu Pan immediately came back to her senses, she looked at him, gestured at him from a distance, "What's wrong?"

"Come here." He said seriously.

Gu Pan walked over and stood beside him, his computer was turned on, she leaned slightly, thinking that there was something wrong with him.

Suddenly he raised his hand and pulled her into his arms, Gu Pan couldn't help being surprised.

Chen Shaochen's accusation has already come, "I was wrong! I shouldn't have brought you here at all, and it seriously affected my work." After speaking, he covered her lips, and hugged her tightly with his hands.

As soon as Gu Pan's body softened, his whole body was attached to his body.Her subconscious mind also reminded herself that this is an office place, and she became nervous inexplicably, in case someone——

Who knows, just in case——

Qin Ke pushed the door open and came in carelessly, "Shao Chen——ah—" he cried out, and immediately left.

Chen Shaochen and Gu Pan ended the kiss in a panic.Chen Shaochen smiled wryly, "I should have locked the door." He raised his hand and wiped the corner of her mouth, "Go and drink some water, your lips are too dry."

A layer of black lines appeared on Gu Pan's ruddy cheeks instantly, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Outside the door, Qin Ke knocked on the door, "May I come in, please?"

"Come in." Chen Shaochen replied loudly.

Qin Ke strode in, "I'm near-sighted at [-] degrees. I'm used to walking directly into your door. I forgot that someone special is here today. I'm sorry."

Gu Pan lowered his head.I'm so ashamed that I lost my face, so I don't want to come to him in the future.

"Look, is there anything that needs to be revised in this cooperation plan?" Qin Ke glanced at Gu Pan, "Let's have dinner together at noon."

Chen Shaochen took the plan and replied coldly: "No time."

The corner of Qin Ke's mouth twitched, "I didn't invite you, please Gu Pan."

Chen Shaochen raised his eyes, "Do you want to be a light bulb?"

Qin Ke had nothing to say and went out to work.

There was a brief silence in the office.

After a long time, Chen Shaochen spoke with a hoarse voice, "Panpan—" He called her name, it seemed that since he came back, he always liked to call her name over and over again.He pronounced her name as if it was the most beautiful name in the world.

Gu Pan's heartbeat accelerated inexplicably.

"Let's get married."

In the ambiguous and quiet office, the second hand of the clock ticks past, like a wordless and beautiful poem.

Gu Pan didn't react for a long time, Chen Shaochen was already standing in front of her, he squatted down, staring at her deeply, she saw herself in his eyes. "It's not a momentary impulse, it's a long-term thought. I know it's you, it's always been you."

It took Gu Pan a lot of effort to regain the ability to think. She gesticulated, "Will it be too sudden?" There was her worry in her heart.

Chen Shaochen kept his head up, looked at her intently, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said in a loud voice, "Why is it sudden? Let nature take its course."

Mr. Chen is getting thicker and thicker.

What about her answer?
Gu Pan was brewing, brewing with heart, just when she was about to do a painting, she suddenly felt a warm current rushing through her lower abdomen, and her brows frowned uncomfortably.

"What's wrong?" Chen Shaochen noticed something.

Gu Pan stood up immediately, anxiously and violently.Xia Tian was already dressed lightly, not to mention she was wearing a pair of apricot cropped pants today, it was really appalling.

Relatives came to report early.

Chen Shaochen understood, and he said unnaturally, "If it wasn't for this sudden situation, I really thought you were rejecting me."

Gu Pan hung his head and gestured, "I'll go back first."

Chen Shaochen took her hand, took his coat, tied it around her waist for her, "Send you back."

"I'll just go back by myself, you're so busy." Gu Pan gestured.

Chen Shaochen has already held her hand, "Panpan, do you think I will let go easily when I come back? You made a decision three years ago, so let me make a decision about you and me."

That's only fair.He can also feel at ease.

He drove her home, and when the car stopped, she didn't feel it.

"I'm going to buy something, you wait in the car."

Ten minutes later, he came back with an extra bag in his hand.

"Panpan—" he called out.

Gu Pan opened her eyes, she wanted to sleep when her relatives came.

"Do you want me to carry you up?" He raised his eyebrows.

Gu Pan immediately woke up.

Chen Shaochen walked beside her.After arriving home, Gu Pan went to tidy up. When she came out, there was a glass of brown sugar water on the table.

"The water is not very hot anymore." Chen Shaochen said, "Stomach still hurts now?"

Gu Pan nodded, Ye Zirui and Tang Tan didn't have this problem, so she didn't know what was going on.My stomach hurts every time I come here.

"Do you have a hot water bottle at home?" He asked.

Gu Pan shook his head, he didn't know where to put the hot water bottle when he moved.

Chen Shaochen said: "Lie down first."

He went to the bedroom and hugged an air-conditioned quilt. The summer in City B is very hot, and Gu Pan is afraid of the heat, so he likes to hide in the air-conditioned room in summer.

Her face darkened.

Chen Shaochen touched her forehead, the temperature was normal, he said in a low and hoarse voice: "I heard that after getting married, the stomach won't hurt anymore."

What is he saying?She raised her eyes and gestured lazily, "Who said that?"

Chen Shaochen turned his face sideways, leaving her with a beautiful profile, "Gao Xixi."

Gu Pan wanted to laugh but still held back, "Is there any scientific basis?"

Chen Shaochen: ...

Gu Pan gestured, "How can you believe rumors that have no scientific basis as a graduate student who has studied abroad?"

Chen Shaochen murmured, "Whether it's a rumor or not, we'll know later."

Gu Pan: ...

She fell asleep in a daze and heard him on the phone.

"Go for me, I have something to do, thank you." He suppressed his voice, but Gu Pan felt unusually warm.

When she woke up, she saw a figure walking around the house.Her heart was at peace.

"Panpan—Panpan—" he called her name softly.

Gu Pan raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, her hands subconsciously grasped his palm, her fingers slid across his palm bit by bit, familiar lines, familiar heat, um, everything is familiar.

"Panpan—" He leaned close to her face.

Once far away, now close at hand.

Why is he in such a hurry?Although he repeatedly told himself not to worry, don't worry, Little Bread needs to be comforted, but everything became uncontrollable after seeing her.

He also felt sudden when he said the word "marriage", but she, the person he always wanted to protect!Those precipitated emotions poured out like a volcanic eruption.

Ye Zirui found a house and moved out.On the day of leaving, Ye Zirui felt a little down.

A week later, when Gu Pan was painting at home, he received a call from a strange person from the hospital.

"Gu Pan? Do you know Ye Zirui? She has an accident and is now in the Affiliated Hospital of T University. Can you come over?"

At that moment, Gu Pan's mind went blank. When he rushed to the hospital, Ye Zirui was still in the operating room.

She stood in the cold corridor, and the police stood beside her.

The house Ye Zirui rented was built illegally by others, and when the house collapsed, she was still at home.She was buried for an hour before being rescued.

Gu Pan leaned against the wall, unable to stand up straight anymore.

The phone rang for a long time, and the music kept singing.

She took out her mobile phone with trembling hands, it was Chen Shaochen's call.The phone shows that there are many unread messages.

Her eyes were dim, and she connected the phone.

"Panpan, where are you?"

There was no sound, just breathing floating.

"Did you see my message?" His words were a little hurried, "Where are you now?"

"Panpan, did you hear me?"

Gu Pan cried silently.

"Panpan—" Chen Shaochen became uneasy.

Finally, Gu Pan raised his hand and knocked.

With a bang, Chen Shaochen's hanging heart relaxed, "Calm down first. Send me your address now, and I'll come right away."

Two lines of tears rolled down Gu Pan's cheeks.

After several long hours, the door of the operating room finally opened.

"When the wall collapsed, the patient hit his head and his right hand fractured. You must be prepared." The chief surgeon is in his 40s, with a clean face showing a bit of regret. .

Chen Shaochen and Gu Pan's expressions were unusually silent.

Chen Shaochen pursed his lips, "Will her hands be affected?"

The doctor nodded solemnly.

In the quiet double room, Ye Zirui has been falling asleep.

Gu Pan stood by, when the door of the ward was gently pushed open.At the dimly lit doorway, Zhou Runzhi walked over, his steps hurried and depressed.His complexion was very bad, and he asked in a low voice, "How is Zirui?"

Zhou Runzhi's eyes were full of guilt and heartache, Gu Pan didn't know what to say to him, and didn't want to say anything.

She walked out of the ward, Chen Shaochen was standing at the door, she walked over, hugged his waist from behind, pressed her face against his back, and felt at ease.

Fortunately, at this time, he was there.

That's good.

Chen Shaochen held her hand, "Don't worry, it will be fine."

Gu Pan hugged for a long time before letting go.She exhaled and gestured to him, "Did you inform him?"

Chen Shaochen looked into her eyes, "Let them settle the matter between Mr. Zhou and Zirui by themselves."

Gu Pan grinned, "But if you let him discover his heart at such a price, Zi Rui is too pitiful."

Painting is their other half of life.

Ye Zirui woke up the next morning, and just as she wanted to move, someone pressed her hand.

Ye Zirui turned around and saw Zhou Runzhi, a new stubble appeared on his chin, and his clothes were also crumpled.

"Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Ye Zirui was in a daze, her mind was in chaos.She thought of the moment the house collapsed, the ground shook and the mountains shook, and before she had time to run, the pain came.

The finger moved slightly, she looked over, her right arm was in plaster, and her five fingers were swollen like sausages.

She smiled slightly, "I thought I was going to die." She spoke slowly and her voice was hoarse.

Zhou Runzhi's face suddenly changed, "No nonsense, no."

Ye Zirui closed her eyes, "Zhou Runzhi, I dreamed of you. I dreamed that you were married, and you were wearing a black suit. You are so handsome, even better than a celebrity."

"Okay, that's just a dream, don't talk, the doctor told you to rest more." He felt guilty, full of self-blame.

Her dream is not finished. In the dream, the bride is very beautiful, wearing a wedding dress that drags the floor, and she stands alone among the crowd of spectators.

"You don't know how much I worry about you, I'd rather be that I don't want you to be like this—" His hands couldn't help shaking.

Ye Zirui smiled unconsciously at the corner of her mouth, and the wound on her cheek was burning with pain, but her heart was calmer than ever.

Figured it out, nothing really matters anymore.

office.

Chen Shaochen was looking at the file.At this time, there were two knocks on the door.

Qin Ke led the people in, "Shao Chen, look who is here."

Zhou Shu was dressed in business attire, mature and generous, "You haven't given me an answer about the cooperation."

Qin Ke had a look on his face, "I'm going to get you a cup of tea."

"This matter is now for Qin Ke to handle." Chen Shaochen said calmly.

Zhou Shu's face changed, and she froze, "Can I talk to you alone?"

Qin Ke was interested, "I still have a job, you can talk about it."

For three years, Chen Shaochen didn't give her a chance, even alienated her.

Zhou Shu's voice was a little depressed, "I heard that you went to see Gu Pan."

Chen Shaochen was silent.

"Why? You obviously haven't been in touch for three years."

Chen Shaochen glanced at the pair of cups on the table, "Three years, 30 years are the same."

Once in love is a lifetime of deep love.

Here is his answer.

She gave him three years because she didn't want to embarrass his parents, because she had a burden in her heart, because she didn't want to tie him down anymore, because she loved him!
Then, he will give her the rest of his life.

Zhou Shu smiled, sad and helpless, "Sometimes you are too cruel."

Chen Shaochen clasped his fingers, "You can think about the cooperation later."

Zhou Shu bit the corner of his lips, and slowly smiled, "Work is work, and one size is one size." She calmed down, "If you have time, ask Gu Pan to come out and have a meal together."

Chen Shaochen thought for a while, "After a while, her classmate is hospitalized during this period, and she has to go there every day."

Zhou Shu twitched the corner of his mouth, "That's good."

He looked at her leaving back, and looked away for a moment.

Gu Pan sent him a message: What do you want to eat tonight?I bought a fish for Zirui and made soup in the afternoon.

Chen Shaochen smiled slightly, this is very good.He pondered for a while, then turned on the phone's audio player, and a voice came out:
"Mommy mommy--"

"I love you mom--"

"Panpan don't go to kindergarten—"

He didn't know how many times he had heard it.At the beginning when Gu Pan proposed to break up, he didn't hold back to visit her, but in the end he only saw her mother.

When Gu's mother saw him, she talked with him a lot, all about Gu Pan.

"Panpan can't talk, this is the heart knot of all of us. This child is afraid of us feeling uncomfortable, and has never shown concern about this matter. But since I met you, I can see that she cares, even doubts Own."

"Shaochen, give Panpan a little time and let her come out by herself." Mother Gu sighed.

Before leaving, Gu's mother gave him an audio, "This is the voice of her talking when she was a child. You can keep it."

At the age when you can afford everything, let's talk about love.

So what if you can't speak?He loves her no matter what.

His fingertips flicked on the screen, "I'll make dinner when I get back."

Ye Zirui's mood was obviously much lower than the previous few days, "Don't hold it up, I don't want to drink, I have no appetite."

Gu Pan wrote on the paper: "It's good for your health."

Ye Zirui smiled and looked at her hands, "How good can it be? I won't be able to draw in the future, and no matter how much soup I drink, it won't help."

Gu Pan was stunned, and his fingers holding the spoon tightened.

Ye Zirui knew what she was thinking, "I'll ask the doctor myself. The doctor said that there will be no problems with normal life, but it's hard to say about precise movements. He put it mildly, that doctor is a knife in this hospital, right? .”

Gu Pan froze there, any comfort at this moment was futile.She quickly wrote on the paper: "Do you remember our last class?"

Ye Zirui nodded, knowing that she had something to say.

"Many things about my mother have not been reported. In fact, my mother's hand was also injured. She was still pregnant with me at the time, and she couldn't hold a pen for a while."

After reading those few lines, Ye Zirui's eyes were filled with astonishment.

Gu Pan nodded solemnly and continued to write: "Miracle exists."

Ye Zirui smiled faintly, "No, Gu Pan, if it was just this, I wouldn't feel so bad. Do you know that Zhou Runzhi's fiancée was chosen for him by his family, and the two families have combined interests and cannot be separated at all."

The relationship didn't work out at all.

"If he proposes to break off the engagement, then he will have nothing." In the end, she was almost powerless.

Gu Pan understood that even if Zhou Runzhi gave up his country for the beauty, Zi Rui would not want to do that.Because she has love in her heart, she doesn't want to see the person she loves fall into a dilemma.

"You are not him. Boss Zhou is a responsible person."

Ye Zirui lowered her eyes, and the hospital gown on her body looked very wide, revealing her slender neck.Her face was still pale, but now she was a little more downcast, "You understand this truth, but why did you make that choice back then?"

Gu Pan kept thinking about this question on the way back.The separation back then was indeed her personal decision, why was she so cruel and decisive back then.

When I got home, there were small noises coming from the kitchen.

She put on her slippers and stood at the glass door. Chen Shaochen stood there, steaming from the pot.Everything is a little unreal, but it seems like it should be like this.

She looked at him in a daze, feeling inexplicably satisfied in her heart.

Chen Shaochen glanced over, his eyes were clear, "I'm back. How is Zirui today?"

Gu Pan walked up to him and gestured, "It's not very good."

Chen Shaochen turned off the fire, packed the dishes, "Do you know what you are doing?"

Gu Pan nodded, and continued to make gestures, "When she recovers, I would like to ask an uncle of mine to help her with acupuncture. My mother's hand was recovered by acupuncture."

Chen Shaochen nodded, "Go wash your hands and eat."

After dinner, the two sat in front of the TV and watched TV. Gu Pan changed channels with the remote control.She has recently become obsessed with several parent-child variety shows, and she watches them with gusto.

Chen Shaochen looked at the documents on the side, and glanced occasionally, "Who do you like?"

Gu Pan compared the painting, "This little warm boy will definitely have long legs in the future, how good-looking it is."

Chen Shaochen smiled silently, "The long legs are due to his parents' good genes, so don't count on it in our family." He squinted his eyes, "It is said that the boy's height follows his mother's."

Gu Pan was stunned for a few seconds before realizing it was blatant discrimination.

Chen Shaochen smiled secretly, "So it's better to have a daughter, like you."

Is the daughter's name Xiaohuihui?She will blame you.

Chen Shaochen looked at her, "How about going to see my mother tomorrow?"

With one side of Gu Pan's face turned away from the light, his face gradually became stiff, "Does she know that we are together now?"

"She knows everything."

"Then did she say anything?"

"She said that if you have time, please teach her to paint. She has recently become obsessed with oil painting and paints at home every day, but the paintings are ugly—" Chen Shaochen laughed.

Gu Pan blinked his black eyes, gestured for a moment, "Okay."

The corners of Chen Shaochen's mouth quickly slid across her cheeks, and he half embraced her with his hands, "Qixi Festival is coming soon, I want to get the certificate that day, but before that, I will go see my uncle and aunt first."

The corners of Gu Pan's mouth collapsed, she gestured slowly, and told honestly, "My dad is very stubborn." That means he no longer recognizes you, you have to work harder now.

"As you can imagine, like a father, like a daughter."
