Chapter 224: Chapter 224

Two days before the start of school, Ye Honglian called Gu Yi, saying she hadn’t seen her for a long time and wanted to visit.

Gu Yi quickly gave her the new home address.

Gu’s father knew that Gu Yi had a friend coming over.

He went to the market early in the morning to buy groceries.

Unexpectedly, he ran into Ye’s mother there.

"In-law, when did you come? Where is Yiyi now?"

Ye’s mother was quite excited to see Gu’s father.

She had heard from Ye Hao last time that Gu Yi returned to R City for the holidays, and didn’t expect to run into Gu’s father here.

"Please don’t call me in-law, they’re divorced now, I’m unworthy of that title."

Gu’s father knew he shouldn’t blame Ye’s mother, but his precious daughter married her son and ended up .

How could he not be angry inside?

So when he spoke, there was a bit of aggression.

"In-law, this matter is our Ye Hao’s fault. I know you’re angry. We were furious too when we found out, Ye Hao’s dad even gave him a harsh beating. But at the time, Ye Hao was injured, his mind was unclear, which led to some unreasonable actions. However, he’s fine now, he realizes his mistake. He went to find Gu Yi last time but heard she went back to her hometown. He was like a lost soul. I was thinking of going to the school to talk to Yiyi. Ye Hao truly knows he’s wrong and hopes Yiyi can give him a chance."

Ye’s mother quickly admitted the fault and explained the situation.

Gu’s father had heard from Gu’s mother about Ye Hao’s injury, could it be that he divorced Yiyi due to a brain injury?

"I know my daughter very well, once she decides on something, not even ten oxen will pull her back. Aunty, you better not go to the school looking for her. If you do, you’ll be forcing her to reconcile with your son, which will only push her further away from Ye Hao."

Gu Yi had said that the Ye Family didn’t know she was pregnant, and she didn’t want them to find out.

If Ye’s mother went to the school, then the secret would be out.

So he deliberately said some things to scare Ye’s mother.

Indeed, after hearing him, Ye’s mother dared not act rashly.

"In-law, what should we do then? We can’t just watch the two kids fall apart . Yiyi always listens to you, could you please persuade her when you go back?"

Ye’s mother had to place her hopes on Gu’s father.

"Alright, I’ll go sound her out when I get back. You all shouldn’t do anything, it might backfire."

Gu’s father threw in one last word.

Yiyi wouldn’t say why she and Ye Hao divorced.

If what Ye’s mother said earlier was true, that it was because of Ye Hao’s injury affecting his mind, then there was still hope for the two of them.

As parents, they still hoped the two could be together.

After all, Gu Yi was already carrying Ye Hao’s baby.

If Gu Yi found someone else in the future, would that person care for the baby?

But Gu Yi is so young, and if she doesn’t find someone, growing old alone would be too lonely.

Gu’s father mused over an emotional drama while buying vegetables.

In the end, he decided to do as he told Ye’s mother and would go back to sound out Gu Yi.

"Yiyi, how serious was Ye Hao’s injury back then?"

Gu’s father asked while selecting vegetables, pretending it was unintentional.

Gu Yi paused for a second upon hearing this.

"Why do you suddenly bring this up?"

"Oh, it’s just that you had called home saying Ye Hao was injured. We were planning to come over but something happened with your brother, so we didn’t. I wanted to know what the situation was at that time."

There had been an accident at the Gu Family Brothers’ factory, injuring some workers.

Also, Gu Yi said Ye Hao was already fine, so the old couple didn’t come over.

"Well, it was quite serious at the time, he stayed in the ICU for several days. I was afraid he’d just pass away."

Though it had passed, the thought of it still made Gu Yi’s heart tremble.

Gu’s father listened, realizing some credibility in Ye’s mother’s words.

But then he started feeling sorry for Gu Yi.

She must have been extremely scared back then.

As parents, they weren’t there for her, and she had to bear everything alone.

Gu’s father remained silent for a long while after hearing this.

"Dad, it’s all in the past now."

Gu Yi knew from her father’s expression that he was feeling sorry for her.

But since all this had passed, there was no need to dwell on it.

"Was Ye Hao’s brain injured back then?"

Gu’s father regretted the question as soon as he asked.

"Yes, the doctor said he had hemorrhagic shock which affected him."

Gu Yi didn’t think much of it.

With this, Ye’s mother’s words seemed true.

At the time, Ye Hao had brain injury, leading to divorce with Gu Yi.

But from what he knew of his daughter, if that was all, she definitely wouldn’t have divorced.

Ye Hao must have done something to upset Gu Yi, for things to end up .

Though he believed it would be best for them to be together, if Ye Hao really hurt his daughter.

He would be the first to oppose.

A little after ten in the morning, Ye Honglian, Wu Chunmei, and Fang Hong arrived together.

Upon seeing Gu Yi, they were stunned.

Wu Chunmei was surprised to see Gu Yi’s belly.

They were all angry when they heard about Ye Hao and Gu Yi’s divorce but never heard about her being pregnant.

"Yes, I’m pregnant, nearly 5 months. Don’t stand at the door, come in quickly."

Gu Yi said with a smile.

Gu’s father hurried to pour water for them.

They quickly stood up.

"Have a seat, don’t stand. Try my cooking today."

Gu’s father spoke cheerfully and went to the kitchen.

"Have some water, Fang Hong, your belly is so big, you must be due soon, right?"

Gu Yi was a bit shocked at the sight of Fang Hong’s belly.

"Yes, I’m here to be admitted to the hospital, and the sisters-in-law mentioned visiting you, so I came along."

Fang Hong replied with a smile.

"Where’s your Jianjun, didn’t he come with you?"

"He did, he went to the hospital first, will come to pick me up later."

"He can’t afford not to come, he now wishes to take Fang Hong everywhere, afraid she’ll have reactions if he’s not around."

Wu Chunmei teased after Fang Hong spoke.

"That’s how it should be, the belly is big now, something might happen if you’re not quick."

Ye Honglian quickly steered the conversation seeing Fang Hong’s embarrassment.

"But Yiyi, we only heard you divorced Ye Hao but didn’t know you’re pregnant with a baby?"

Ye Honglian shifted the topic to Gu Yi.

"No, even Ye Hao doesn’t know, so don’t spill the beans when you go back."

Gu Yi said with a smile.

"Aren’t you planning on telling him? After all, he is the child’s biological father, he should be responsible for the kid."

Wu Chunmei disapproved a bit.

"Sister-in-law, I know you mean well, but since I divorced him, this child is mine alone. Whatever happens, I won’t bother him."

Gu Yi replied firmly, looking at Wu Chunmei.

", you’ll suffer later."

"I know, but I don’t want to have any more connections with Ye Hao because of the child."

After Gu Yi finished speaking, the atmosphere turned a bit awkward.
