Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1418: 1417 Don’t even think about it

Gu Kai looked at Fu Jingyi’s photo and couldn’t help but think of his mother.

In his mind, there were only scenes of his mother’s sadness from missing her sister, her reluctance when she passed away, and the nights his father drank to numb himself.

His hatred was truly deeper than his sister’s hatred for Fu Jingyi.

If Gu Kai hadn’t fallen in love with the daughter of Fu Jingyi and Bai Yuqin, perhaps he could have more easily forgotten these grudges, but fate played tricks on him, making him fall in love with the enemy’s daughter.

He was repeatedly reminded that Bai Yiyi’s parents were the ones who caused his mother’s death.

Anyone would be tormented and conflicted.

Bai Yuqin’s voice suddenly pierced his ears, causing Gu Kai’s handsome face to darken suddenly. He turned his eyes, shooting a cold and hateful look at Bai Yuqin.

“…”

Bai Yuqin’s face turned pale. She opened her mouth but couldn’t utter a single word.

Gu Kai looked at Bai Yuqin’s pale face and the guilt in her eyes, then thought of Bai Yiyi. He tightly pressed his thin lips, forcing himself to suppress the hatred in his heart.

His gaze swept past the half-opened door to the room, and he coldly said, “I’ll wait in the car first.” He then walked out of the living room with large strides.

“Yiyi, don’t pack. I’m not going back to G City with you now.”

In the room, Bai Yiyi was only halfway through packing when Bai Yuqin’s voice came from the doorway. She looked up to see Bai Yuqin walking in slowly.

Bai Yiyi furrowed her brows in confusion, “Mom, didn’t we agree just now? Why did you change your mind?”

“Yiyi, Ah Kai is a man worth spending your life with. If you’re with him, he will definitely treat you well.”

Bai Yuqin spoke sincerely.

Bai Yiyi pressed her lips and said softly, “Mom, Ah Kai can’t treat you the way he did before. Do you mind it? Give him some time, and he will definitely respect you as he did in the past.”

“Yiyi, Mom doesn’t mind Ah Kai’s attitude towards me. I just don’t want to affect your relationship because of me.”

“I’ve already broken up with him. You don’t have to worry about affecting us.”

Bai Yiyi’s downcast eyes suddenly lifted, clear and cold.

After speaking, her fingers tightened around the clothes she was holding, a tinge of sadness washing over her heart.

Bai Yuqin’s eyes were filled with deeper guilt, “Yiyi, you broke up because of me. Ah Kai rushing here overnight to pick you up shows that he still loves you. For this reason alone, you can’t make it so difficult for him, forcing him to accept me, to face me. You go back with him tonight, and I’ll take the car to G City tomorrow.”

“Mom.”

Bai Yiyi’s voice carried a hint of conflict.

She knew very well that the words she had said to Gu Kai outside earlier were indeed forcing him.

If he didn’t take her mother, she wouldn’t go with him.

No, it wasn’t just that she wouldn’t go with him; she would distance herself from him in the future.

Gu Kai was such a smart person. How could he not know, and because of it, he was angry.

“Yiyi, your father and I have committed too many sins, but I can’t let the retribution fall on you.”

Bai Yuqin reached to take the clothes from her hand. Earlier, Gu Kai’s look made Bai Yuqin abandon the idea of returning to G City with them.

“Mom.”

Bai Yiyi held tightly, not letting her take the clothes, shouting with a heavier tone.

Bai Yuqin was determined, taking the clothes from Bai Yiyi’s hand and pulling Bai Yiyi up, pushing her to the living room, “Yiyi, Ah Kai is waiting for you in the car. Hurry and go. Early tomorrow morning, perhaps Tongtong would still see you both.”

Bai Yiyi frowned at Bai Yuqin, “Mom, if we leave, we go together. I don’t feel at ease with you taking the long-distance bus alone.”

“What is there not to be at ease about? Didn’t I come back alone before? Hurry and go. Although you shouldn’t abandon your mom for a man, you also shouldn’t trouble the man you love because of your mom.”

Bai Yuqin said, forcibly pushing Bai Yiyi out of the living room.

Bai Yiyi felt some hesitation in her heart, and more of it was conflict.

She turned her head to look at the closed living room door. Behind that door was her sick mother standing inside.

Outside the courtyard gate was the man she loved.

This choice made Bai Yiyi indescribably upset. She tightly pressed her lips, as if making some decision, then turned and walked towards the gate.

Gu Kai was waiting outside the gate.

When she opened the door and came out, seeing it was just her, a trace of surprise flashed in Gu Kai’s eyes. He glanced behind her and asked puzzledly, “Why are you alone?”

Bai Yiyi looked at him for a moment, then averted her gaze. When he reached out to take the luggage, she subtly avoided it.

“Let’s go.”

She carried the luggage to the car, opened the trunk, and put the luggage inside.

Turning around, she saw Gu Kai standing tall and straight in place, not coming over. Her gaze changed slightly, and she went back, “Come on!”

“Where’s Aunt Bai?”

“She’s not coming back. Gu Kai, don’t ask anymore, okay? Just pretend I didn’t say those words earlier.” Bai Yiyi’s tone was a bit off. After speaking, she pulled Gu Kai to the car, opened the driver’s seat door, and walked around the car to sit inside.

The Maybach drove through the cold winter night, as lonely as when it came. Outside the car was the freezing cold, inside was silent and dull.

After an unknown period, Bai Yiyi’s voice broke the silence, sounding clear and cold, “My mom said that riding in your car with us back to G City is making it difficult for you.”

Gu Kai gripped the steering wheel tighter.

He turned his eyes to look at Bai Yiyi sitting in the passenger seat. The dim light cast a shadow over her cool brows, and her eyes were calm as still water, which made him feel uneasy.

“You didn’t make it difficult for me. I just didn’t know how to face your mother for a moment.”

Gu Kai’s voice was somewhat stiff, and his handsome brows furrowed lightly, unable to hide the inner conflict and struggle.

Bai Yiyi listened to his words and her heart inexplicably ached.

“So I really am making it difficult for you.” She finished speaking, echoing a self-mocking smile tinged with sadness, “Ah Kai, you shouldn’t have come to pick me up.”

This was self-torture.

Knowing that coming to pick her up would mean seeing her mother, yet he still came.

Actually, he should have forgotten her and been with another girl. The world is so big; there are thousands of people better than Bai Yiyi, yet he chose to fall for her.

“I know.”

Gu Kai’s thin lips pressed into a cold and resolute line, gaze fixed on the night illuminated by the car’s headlights. In such a dark night, it could still shine like daylight, “I don’t want to continue like this.”

He didn’t want to continue this way with her. He wanted to be with her as soon as possible, so he came knowing he would see those he wished not to see.

Bai Yiyi felt another wave of sadness in her heart. Her eyes looked lovingly at the man beside her, “Ah Kai, don’t make it difficult for yourself anymore. Everything I said before, you should…”

“Don’t even think about it!”

Gu Kai suddenly got angry!
