I Became Super Rich After Resigning-Chapter 246 - : Letting Go of Feelings for Gu Hanchen
Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Letting Go of Feelings for Gu Hanchen
Yan Ke heard Yuan Xi say this and smiled meaningfully, “Yuan Xi, I’m going to go in and see Mr. Gu first.”
Yuan Xi nodded indifferently, watching Yan Ke enter the house.
Mrs. Gu said to Yuan Xi, “Who knows if my Hanchen has such good fortune.”
Yuan Xi hummed in confusion.
Mrs. Gu said, “The Yan Family is an old acquaintance of our Gu Family. Yan Ke is a child with many talents, good-looking, and from a good family background. Now she has even debuted as a celebrity…”
Yuan Xi smiled and said, “Mrs. Gu, the first rule of being an idol is that you shouldn’t date.”
“Ah?” Mrs. Gu was stunned, “Why can’t idols date?”
Yuan Xi didn’t know how to explain it to Mrs. Gu, “It’s an unwritten rule… But nowadays, there are quite a few idols who are dating.”
“That’s good,” Mrs. Gu said.
As soon as Gu Hanchen returned to the Gu Family, he was visited by wave after wave of people. Annoyed, he simply hid away in his room.
When Zhong Xiaoyi entered the room and saw Gu Hanchen smoking, she frowned slightly.
Gu Hanchen, upon seeing Zhong Xiaoyi come in, frowned and snuffed out the freshly lit cigarette, “Didn’t I ask you to guard the door outside and not let anyone in to disturb me?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Miss Yan Ke has come to visit you.”
Gu Hanchen said, “Let her in then.”
“Hanchen.”
Yan Ke entered from the doorway, seeing Gu Hanchen in the wheelchair, her eyes full of concern, “How did you get hurt so badly?”
Gu Hanchen said, “It’s much better now; it’s just been an unlucky year. I need to check the almanac every day before going out.”
Looking at Gu Hanchen with heartache, Yan Ke said, “It must hurt a lot, right?”
Gu Hanchen: “Isn’t that obvious? How could it not hurt?”
Zhong Xiaoyi chuckled softly in the background.
Yan Ke glanced at Zhong Xiaoyi and said, “Hanchen, I came to visit you, but also to thank you for making me the spokesperson for Forest Pursuit. I will do my best as the spokesperson for Forest Pursuit.”
Gu Hanchen hummed indifferently, “Your fanbase is very young; you are a suitable choice to endorse Forest Pursuit.”
Yan Ke smiled and said, “Regardless, I still owe you thanks. Is there a chance I could treat you to a meal?”
Glancing at Yan Ke, Gu Hanchen said, “Sure. Tomorrow evening?”
Yan Ke said, “That works.”
Yan Ke said, “Hanchen, how about we play a round of Forest Pursuit together?”
Gu Hanchen picked up the phone beside him and said, “Sure, I’ll guide you. In a few days, you’ll be making an appearance as the spokesperson at the celebrity match. You can’t be too bad; let me help you improve.”
Yan Ke looked around and said, “There doesn’t seem to be any place to sit here.”
Gu Hanchen pointed at the bed next to him, “You can sit on my bed; I don’t have as many hang-ups about cleanliness as Yuan Xi.”
After Yan Ke sat down, she opened her phone and joined Gu Hanchen in playing Forest Pursuit.
Zhong Xiaoyi watched from the side, her heart aching considerably. As Gu Hanchen got engrossed in the game, she quietly walked to the backyard and started feeding Gu Hanchen’s little rabbit.

Mrs. Zhong approached Zhong Xiaoyi and said, “The Gu Family had quite a few guests today. Xiaoyi, could you help care for Mr. Gu a bit more?”
As she stroked the rabbit’s fur, Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Mom, about Miss Yan Ke…”
Mrs. Zhong said, “Miss Yan Ke is one of the potential matches selected by Mrs. Gu for Mr. Gu, and she is the one Mrs. Gu is most satisfied with as a daughter-in-law.”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Oh.”
Mrs. Zhong deeply looked at Zhong Xiaoyi and said, “Xiaoyi… ”
Zhong Xiaoyi stood up with a smile and said, “Mom, I’m fine. Mr. Gu and Lady Yan are playing games together; they won’t need me for a while, so I’ll play with the little bunny.”
Mrs. Zhong was very busy today, so she didn’t pay further attention to Zhong Xiaoyi and went inside to help Mrs. Gu with her work.
“Sister Xiao, is this a little bunny? It’s so cute!”
Zhong Xiaoyi turned around and saw Gu Ying. She smiled and said, “Yes, it’s a little bunny.”
Shihuo looked at Zhong Xiaoyi feeding the little bunny and said, “The little bunny should eat carrots! I will get a carrot to feed the little bunny.”
Zhong Xiaoyi smiled and said, “Actually, little bunnies don’t eat carrots. They really love this bunny food. Do you want to feed the little bunny?”
Xiao Shihuo nodded his head and said, “Yes!”
Zhong Xiaoyi taught the two kids how to feed the little bunny.
Xiao Shihuo cradled the little bunny carefully and said, “I really like the little bunny. Previously, my mom wouldn’t let me keep a little hamster, and Sister was also afraid of hamsters. But surely Mom will let me keep the bunny!”
Xiao Shihuo’s eyes were fixed on the cute little bunny in his arms.
Zhong Xiaoyi looked at Xiao Shihuo and asked, “Can you take good care of the little bunny?”
“I can, I will take good care of the little bunny! I will be even more careful than when taking care of An’an and Lele!”
Zhong Xiaoyi gave Xiao Shihuo’s cheek a squeeze and said, “Since I am going to go abroad soon and won’t be able to take good care of the little bunny, I’ll give it to you. You must help me take good care of it.”
Xiao Shihuo puffed his cheeks and said, “Why do you and Uncle Yingying like to touch my face too?”
Zhong Xiaoyi chuckled lightly, “Because you’re cute.”
Gu Ying, feeling jealous, asked, “Sister Xiao, who is cuter, me or Huohuo?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Both are cute.”
Gu Ying held Zhong Xiaoyi’s hand and asked, “Sister Xiao, where are you going abroad? Will it be like Mommy’s short business trips?”
“No, Sister is going to study.”
“Will Sister come back?” Gu Ying clung tightly to Zhong Xiaoyi’s hand, reluctant to let go.
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “I don’t know yet.”
Zhong Xiaoyi wasn’t sure when she could let go of her feelings for Gu Hanchen. The fluttering emotions of her youth were not so easy to set aside.
There were plenty of boys who confessed their feelings and pursued her in university, and even now at work, men never stopped trying to court her—many of whom were extremely outstanding.
But Zhong Xiaoyi couldn’t allow herself to get close to other boys while her heart still held onto someone else. This was why she couldn’t let go of Gu Hanchen; after all, the best way to forget a man is to start a new romance.
However, Zhong Xiaoyi couldn’t bring herself to start a new romance.
Nor could she bear to watch Gu Hanchen sweetly dating and marrying another woman. It made her feel that her own thoughts were dirty.
Leaving Jiang City, getting away from Gu Hanchen, perhaps going to Australia was the best choice.
At dusk, Yuan Xi saw that it was getting late and went to find Xiao Shihuo to go home.
Upon seeing the little bunny in Xiao Shihuo’s hands, Yuan Xi said, “Isn’t this the bunny that Gu Hanchen gave to Zhong Xiaoyi?”
Xiao Shihuo said, “This is the bunny Sister Xiao gave to me. She said she is going overseas and can’t take good care of the bunny, so she asked me to take good care of it. Sister, are you afraid of bunnies?”
Yuan Xi chuckled lightly and said, “Not afraid.”
Xiao Shihuo excitedly said, “Then I can keep the bunny!”
Huo Shiyan helped Xiao Shihuo with the bunny cage and said, “Time to head back.”
Xiao Shihuo turned and waved goodbye to Gu Ying.
“Stop right there!”
Just as the three of them were about to get into the car, Gu Hanchen approached in his electric wheelchair and said, “Who gave you permission to take my bunny away?”
Xiao Shihuo, holding the bunny cage, said, “This is the bunny Sister Xiao gave to me, not your bunny!”
