Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2387: Chapter 191: From Now On, He Means Nothing to Her

Gu Zhitong stretched her neck, watching Momo delete Ji Anyun, then opened Ye Zhan’s profile picture.

She thought Momo was going to delete Ye Zhan, so she reached out and grabbed Momo’s hand, saying, “Momo, why don’t you ask Ye Zhan first if he has the same thoughts as Ji Anyun, and then delete him.”

Momo was angry, not because of Ji Anyun, who was irrelevant.

It must be because of Ye Zhan.

Because she cares, she feels sad and angry.

Momo gave Gu Zhitong a weird look, and asked jokingly, “Sister Tongtong, why are you nervous? I’m not going to delete him. I just want to tell him that his matters with Ji Anyun have nothing to do with me.”

Gu Zhitong let out a sigh of relief, pulled her up, and said, “Let’s go upstairs and ask. Don’t let Aunt worry.”

“Worry about what? You aren’t children anymore. I believe you can handle your own affairs. Go upstairs.”

Wen Ran said, waving her hand.

Momo and Gu Zhitong returned to her room upstairs.

She remembered that morning at Kangning Hospital, she called Ye Zhan, but his phone was off.

However, just now Ji Anyun said she and Ye Zhan compared mutual friends.

This means they are together.

She felt some resentment at her own unease and sadness.

Taking a deep breath, Momo quickly typed out a sentence and sent it.

Staring at Ye Zhan’s name, she truly felt like deleting him.

She told herself if she deletes him this time, she’ll never add him back. From then on, Ye Zhan would be nothing to her, Momo.

She didn’t believe she couldn’t forget a man.

“Momo, let’s play chess.”

Seeing her emotional turmoil, Gu Zhitong’s face looked unpleasant. She opened a drawer, took out her Gomoku, and laid it on the coffee table.

“Okay, let’s stake a bet.”

Momo looked at Gu Zhitong’s Gomoku and joked.

As if she hadn’t been the one who was just angry and upset.

“What kind of bet?”

Gu Zhitong raised an eyebrow, ready to stay the course.

Momo thought for a moment and said, “If I lose, I’ll delete Ye Zhan from my heart.”

“…”

Gu Zhitong stared at her for a few seconds, “And if I lose?”

“Who knows? Sister Tongtong, you decide. If you lose, do something you find most difficult.”

For her, the hardest thing right now is to completely forget Ye Zhan.

“I don’t think I have anything that’s difficult to do.”

Gu Zhitong said confidently.

This amused Momo. She picked up a piece, made the first move, then raised her eyebrows at Gu Zhitong, “If you lose, how about switching careers, no longer being a doctor?”

“This…”

“Sister Tongtong, that’s the fairest.”

“How is that fair?”

Gu Zhitong chuckled.

Momo said in a light tone, “Although Ye Zhan doesn’t like me, I currently like him. Deleting him from my heart is quite difficult and something I’m reluctant to do. I don’t want to cut ties with him forever, so I must try hard to beat you.”

“…”

“You love the medical profession, so you must not want to change jobs either. Using someone and something we both love as a bet, isn’t that the fairest?”

“When you put it like that, it does seem to have some twisted logic.”

Gu Zhitong nodded, “Alright, I agree but this means I won’t go easy on you.”

“Best out of three, each one relying on skill.”

Momo glanced at her phone tossed on the table, and said with confidence.

Her message was sent but no reply came.

Momo didn’t know if Ye Zhan saw the message but didn’t reply, or if he never saw it.

Just like when she called him earlier, uncertain if he later turned on his phone and knew or not.

Though it’s just Gomoku, Momo and Gu Zhitong played intently, each move made after careful consideration.

Their chess skills have always been evenly matched.

This stretched out the time quite a bit.

In the first game, Momo won by a move.

Looking at the loss, Gu Zhitong lamented, “Momo, let’s go again.”

“No rush, I’ll go to the bathroom first.” Momo, in good spirits after winning, headed to the bathroom with a smile.

Gu Zhitong picked up her phone and called Tang Jinchen.

No one answered.

She felt a bit frustrated.

In the bathroom, Momo came out, glanced at her phone on the table, and tapped the screen to check the time.

During the second match, Momo seemed a bit absent-minded.

“Momo, why don’t we continue another day?”

“…”

Momo said nothing but continued playing.

She lost.

“Let’s stop, it’s a draw today.”

“No, I still want to win.”

Momo insisted on playing the third match.

In truth, she wanted to lose.

From the beginning, she aimed for Gu Zhitong to bet her career, and she was set on this idea.

Gu Zhitong glanced several times at Momo’s phone.

No message alerts, no incoming calls.

Finally, Momo lost.

Accepting defeat, she picked up her phone and deleted Ye Zhan’s WeChat and phone number.

This time, it was even harder than the last.

And more decisive than the last.

“Momo, there are plenty of good men in the world. When Tang Zhixian suddenly disappeared back then, I cried many times over. But now that you see him every day in front of me, my heart is calm.”

“I can do it too.”

Momo’s smile curved her eyes, but inside was desolate.

She gave herself a chance and also gave Ye Zhan a chance.

She had sent a message to clarify she hadn’t shared Ji Anyun’s photos on social media.

Yet, Ye Zhan ignored her.

He said that night if she felt bad, she could find him.

In truth, those were just empty words.

She tightened her lips and said cheerfully, “He’s just a man, no big deal. Sister Tongtong, I think Tang Jinchen is better than Tang Zhixian. You might try with him.”

“We’ll see where things go.”

Gu Zhitong thought of Tang Jinchen, and unknowingly softened her expression.

These past days, she often recalled Tang Jinchen saying he wanted to change careers for her, not wanting her to live in fear, and not wanting his profession to endanger her.

Gu Zhitong felt affection for Tang Jinchen, and even a bit of infatuation.

She didn’t want to force him to do anything, whether now or even someday when she falls deeply in love, she didn’t want to demand he change careers or make such huge sacrifices for her.

——

That night, Momo booked a ticket to travel abroad.

The next morning, when she announced at the breakfast table that she wanted to travel, Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran had no objections.

They simply reminded her to stay safe and be cautious outside.

Momo smiled cheekily and said, “Dad, Mom, don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself. With Ziyi and Qingqing in Imperial City and not back, you two can enjoy a world of only two.”

“That’s true, will you return for the Spring Festival?”

Mo Xiuchen nodded in agreement, his eyes gentle and warm.

“We’ll see.”

Momo said casually, “If the outside world is too tempting, I might not come back for Spring Festival, maybe return directly after to work.”
