You get married, I hijack the marriage

Chapter 496 I Love Her More Than Anyone Else
Shen Shuna asked, "Have you recovered?"

He nodded calmly: "It's completely healed."

Aunt Li knew that he would have dinner here today, so she specially prepared his favorite dishes and placed them all on his side.

It was just that after the car accident, his taste had become lighter, but he didn't want to disappoint Aunt Li, so he only took two symbolic bites of each dish.

After dinner, the two of them played a treasure hunt game with Gu Yiyi. They hid toys in a corner of the living room and asked Gu Yiyi to find them.

Shen Shuna looked at Gu Yiyi, who was walking like a little duck, with a gentle smile on her face. She tilted her head to talk to Gu Jinchen, and saw him looking at Gu Yiyi absentmindedly, so she asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Jinchen lowered his gaze and stared at the water cup in his hand. His eyes were gray as if covered with a layer of dust. The grief seemed to grow freely from the cracks in the dry ground, gradually flooding his heart, making his voice hoarse: "She and I thought about having a daughter after we got married."

Shen Shuna was speechless. Not to mention Gu Jinchen, even she had not expected things to turn out like this today.

Gu Jinchen held the water cup and was silent for a long time, then continued: "My name is Gu Yiyi, the only one."

Shen Shuna looked at him in shock. No wonder when Shen Youran heard Gu Yiyi's name for the first time after returning to China, he was so distraught as if the whole world collapsed in an instant and could never be put together again.

She recalled that when she first brought Gu Yiyi home, the child could only take Gu Jinchen's surname. When she discussed it with him, he softly murmured the three words "Gu Yiyi" with a very strange expression. Later, he loved Gu Yiyi very much.

Now she finally understood. When he was holding Gu Yiyi in his arms, his eyes were gentle and doting. She thought he liked children, but it turned out not to be the case. At that time, he probably treated Gu Yiyi as the non-existent child.

There was an indissoluble sadness between Gu Jinchen's brows, which gradually spread throughout his body, like the bleak autumn and winter. After losing the girl he had loved for more than ten years, his heart no longer had spring and warm sunshine.

His eyes were dim and he said in a hoarse voice: "I love her more than anyone else."

Shen Shuna listened quietly. She had witnessed the beautiful love between Gu Jinchen and Shen Youran with her own eyes. In addition, Shen Youran had not been by his side for the past three years. He was in so much pain that he felt like he was going to die, but he had to work day and night to bring her back as soon as possible.

She understood his pain now, but she couldn't help him because it was Shen Youran's own choice: "She has Ji Jinchuan now."

"I know." It was because she chose Ji Jinchuan that he didn't bother her. Even though the piercing pain every day and night was about to tear him apart, and her shadow was all he saw in his dreams at midnight, he was unwilling to force her to do anything.

If Ji Jinchuan forced her to stay by his side, he would have tried his best to get her back even if it meant risking everything. However, that was her own choice and he was powerless to change her.

"Shuna." He called Shen Shuna's name. Shen Shuna looked at him. He lowered his eyes. The water cup in his hand had lost its temperature, just like his heart, which could never be warmed up again. His voice was hoarse and sad. "Let Yiyi take your last name."

Shen Shuna didn't react at first, but later she gradually understood that even though Gu Yiyi and Gu Yiyi had the same pronunciation but different characters, he didn't want anyone to occupy the name.

Although that Gu Yiyi never existed from the beginning to the end, she was the daughter he and she had imagined, and no one could replace her.
