Chapter 552 Giving You Romance Again

"Mr. Cheng, are you here to discuss business?" He Yi continued to say to Mr. Cheng.

"Heh, it just so happens that I've come to discuss business with Miss Gu. Miss Gu is truly capable, a remarkable woman. Many of her views and ideas have impressed me as a man, and I have to admit defeat."

When Gu Zhiyao heard what President Cheng said, she immediately raised her eyebrows.

Wow, the changes are too drastic!

Although he did praise himself from time to time earlier, it was nothing like now, where he was praising her to the skies.

He Yi noticed Gu Zhiyao's expression and couldn't help but smile slightly. He continued to ask President Cheng, "She is indeed quite capable. So, has your cooperation been finalized today?"

"Of course, there's absolutely no better partner than Miss Gu. Miss Gu, when are you free tomorrow? I think we should sign the contract?"

what?

Gu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment. She glanced at He Yi's ambiguous smile and quickly came to her senses, saying, "I'm available anytime. You can decide the time, Mr. Cheng."

"So, at this time? By the way, I wonder if Mr. He is free tomorrow evening? I would like to invite you and Ms. Gu to dinner as a celebration. It's been a pleasure working with you!"

"Tomorrow night? Let me see, it should be fine." Seeing that he was so sensible, He Yi decided to do him a favor.

Mr. Cheng was overjoyed upon hearing this. “Okay, okay, it’s settled then. I won’t bother you any longer. See you tomorrow, Miss Gu.”

"See you tomorrow, Mr. Cheng," Gu Zhiyao replied quickly.

She remained stunned for a long time after watching President Cheng leave.

Until He Yi put his arm around her shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go."

Gu Zhiyao's attention finally returned to him, and she asked in surprise, "You...why are you here?"

"I'll pick you up from get off work. I told you, I want to pursue you again," He Yi said in a low and frank tone.

Uh—Gu Zhiyao was a little embarrassed.

However, I followed him out of the building and to where he parked his car.

He didn't rush to get her into the car. Instead, he took her hand and led her to the back of the car. He opened the trunk, and a magnificent and beautiful scene immediately came into Gu Zhiyao's view.

There were so many fresh flowers, including roses, lilies, gardenias, and baby's breath, as well as some small fairy lights, all cleverly arranged in a heart shape, just like the ones you see on TV.

"Do you like it? I've been thinking about it and I don't know where to start. I remembered a movie I just watched, so I imitated it. Don't you think it's unoriginal?" He Yi looked at her intently, his expression both cautious and full of expectation.

Gu Zhiyao's throat tightened with emotion. Although she had seen many such scenes before, they all belonged to others; she had never experienced one herself. She remembered how, in her youth, she had dreamed of one day receiving such love as the heroines in dramas. Unfortunately, she waited and waited, but it never came. Now, no longer a young girl, her wish had finally come true.

Happy? Or regretful?

Gu Zhiyao didn't know how she felt; she just felt like crying.

"I'm sorry for this love that came too late!" He Yi hugged her.

Gu Zhiyao sniffed hard, suppressing the tears that were about to well up, and stared intently at the flowers, saying, "They're beautiful, thank you!"

A look of joy immediately flashed in He Yi's eyes.

Gu Zhiyao met his burning gaze, turned her face away, and said, "I just don't know how to move it home. It would be such a waste to just throw it away like this, or should I just leave it in the car like this?"

“It’s okay, I’ll take care of it. Where do you want to put it in your house? On the balcony of your room, or in your bedroom?” He Yi asked.

"I... I'll go back and check first."

"Okay, take your time thinking about it, no rush. Come on, let's go eat first, you can watch it again after we eat."

"Going out to eat? We..."

“I’ve already told Grandma that I’m taking you out to dinner tonight, and we won’t be eating at home. Grandma is very happy and told us to go out and have fun. She’ll take care of the children.”

Gu Zhiyao was filled with emotion again. After getting into the car, she still made a phone call to the old lady.

"I've never seen this guy so excited before, like a teenager or a young boy in his late teens or early twenties. Zhiyao, just enjoy yourself. This must be a rare treat for you, right? Have fun and don't worry about home. Grandma's here for you."

"Thank you for your hard work, Grandma."

"It's not hard work at all, and Grandma would love to experience this kind of hard work every day! You understand." The old lady was clearly excited and happy.

Gu Zhiyao didn't know what else to say, so she exchanged some polite words and then ended the call.

She leaned back in her seat, and after a moment, glanced sideways at He Yi in the driver's seat.

He Yi freed one hand and gently covered hers, which immediately brought warmth. But as he repeatedly squeezed her fingers, Gu Zhiyao became a little uncomfortable and stammered, "You, concentrate on driving and be careful."

“Okay!” He Yi replied cheerfully, finally removing his hand.

The car moved forward steadily, but Gu Zhiyao's emotions remained unsettled for a long time. The beautiful scene she had just seen in the trunk kept flashing through her mind until the car stopped.

That's a revolving restaurant by the sea, a famous landmark in Yuncheng. You can see all kinds of couples there, mostly young, but occasionally there are some like them.

He Yi had already made reservations. He told her that he had originally planned to book the entire venue, but then felt that she should experience it like a normal person. However, compared to the quiet atmosphere of booking the whole place, Gu Zhiyao definitely preferred the current atmosphere. And she didn't tell him that this was something she had once dreamed of.

Not only was the ambiance excellent, but the food was also top-notch. Gu Zhiyao ate with great relish, while He Yi barely ate anything, glancing at her from time to time. Gu Zhiyao gradually became embarrassed, and he smiled, "Don't feel embarrassed, just eat your food. I like watching you eat."

"By the way, do you remember when you were pregnant with Chenchen? It seems like you were about eight months along then. I took you to a Western restaurant, and you had a bigger appetite back then than you do now. I thought to myself, the baby must be very strong and healthy, and I was very happy. Gu Zhiyao, there are many things that I haven't even noticed myself. My initial intentions for getting you pregnant back then may have been terrible, but as you've gone through each stage of your pregnancy, my mindset has long been focused on the child and you. Those original intentions have long been forgotten."

As Gu Zhiyao listened to his deep, magnetic voice speaking these words, her emotions surged, and her memories returned to that time.

She remembered that she did have such an experience.

Besides that, he also took her out to eat and play many times, and even accompanied her to maternity and baby stores, buying her a lot of things for the baby. At the time, she was very happy and felt very blessed. Later, when she learned the truth, she believed that he was just putting on an act to deceive her into giving birth to the child.
