After Losing My Memory, My Husband Begged Me to Love Him Again

Chapter 11

Gu Wan's other hand was also injured, so of course she couldn't stay at the hotel any longer.

Although Gu Wan didn't think this was a big deal and it was just a minor injury, why should such a trivial thing affect her mood? Even if she couldn't play anymore, she could still watch him play.

However, when Lu Yu heard this, his brows were tightly knitted. He insisted on having the driver come to pick Gu Wan up without any discussion.

Something that would have seemed like the sky was falling down to her in the past had now become a lightly brushed off "It's nothing, just a minor injury" from her mouth.

There was an inexplicable discomfort in Lu Yu's heart.

Gu Wan didn't know what she had said wrong again. In just a blink of an eye, his expression had changed again.

Unable to figure it out, Gu Wan didn't dwell on it. Seeing Cui Shang next to her, whose concern had clearly gone beyond just feeling bad for her, Gu Wan couldn't help but feel amused.

She knew he was grieving over those few horses that had just been brought over only to be abandoned. If these horses had been bought by Gu Wan with her own money, she wouldn't be stingy about lending them to Cui Shang to ride for a few days. Unfortunately they weren't bought with her money, so she didn't have the power to decide what to do with them.

As for regarding Lu Yu's belongings as her own, Gu Wan didn't even consider that for a second.

Lu Yu, who was on the side, also noticed that Gu Wan seemed to be quite fond of Cui Shang. At first, there was some discomfort in his heart, but seeing that although Gu Wan understood Cui Shang's current feelings, she still didn't say anything about wanting to lend the horses to Cui Shang, Lu Yu no longer had the leisure to think about whether she liked Cui Shang or not.

She still distinguished their relationship very clearly.

But that was okay. As time went by, things would slowly get better between them. This was how Lu Yu comforted himself.

Just thinking about the intimacy from last night, Lu Yu quickly cheered up again.

The car soon arrived at the hotel. Lu Yu and Gu Wan got in the car and in a little over an hour, the car stopped.

Seeing them return so quickly, the housekeeper was shocked. And after seeing that Gu Wan's other hand was also injured, the housekeeper was far beyond just shocked.

He thought some other problem must have happened between the two again, possibly even escalating to violence. But looking at how the two of them were behaving, it didn't seem to be the case.

Compared to when the husband and wife went out, the current lady and President Lu seemed to be much closer now. At the very least, President Lu himself was taking a lot more initiative.

On the other side, the first thing Gu Wan did when she got home was to look for Beibei.

Seeing the puppy that had rushed up to her, humming and shaking its tail wildly, Gu Wan felt a little regretful that she didn't bring it along.

"Beibei must have been so worried not seeing Mommy for a few days," Gu Wan hurriedly started looking for the dried fish snacks she had brought back specially from the hotel.

"Look what Mommy brought back for our Beibei."

Seeing the dots of tenderness and gentle indulgence in Gu Wan's eyes, along with her soft tone, for a moment Lu Yu actually felt that he couldn't even compare to a dog.

Gu Wan was completely unaware of what the man next to her was thinking. Seeing that Beibei seemed to really like the dried fish snacks she brought back, Gu Wan couldn't help but smile too.

Seeing this scene, a thought flashed in Lu Yu's mind. He said, "Let's take it out together tonight."

Not just Gu Wan, even the housekeeper felt shocked at these words.

It was known that the previous President Lu was a very efficient man. He always felt that getting his subordinates to do something that he could do himself was a waste of life.

Gu Wan didn't feel like a small puppy like Beibei needed two people to walk it either, especially since the other person didn't seem to be particularly close to Beibei. So she asked, "Don't you have work?"

She thought those few days Lu Yu spent not working at the hotel was already his limit.

If it was before, Lu Yu would probably be very happy to hear this. But now...he was not happy, on the contrary he felt a little uncomfortable.

He actually didn't want Gu Wan to see his work as more important than him.

Seeing Lu Yu insist, Gu Wan didn't say anything more.

In the afternoon, as expected, Lu Yu couldn't resist sending messages to the company. Just when Gu Wan naturally assumed that he would stand her up, as Gu Wan was putting on the leash for Beibei, about to head out, she saw Lu Yu emerge from the study at some point.

Seeing her already packed up and almost at the door, Lu Yu couldn't help frowning, "Why didn't you call me?" If he hadn't been paying attention to the time, would she have just left without saying anything?

What Lu Yu didn't know was that a long time ago, Gu Wan already understood one thing - don't believe other people's words, and especially don't foolishly believe other people's promises. And most of all, don't take someone else's assurances seriously, and then question them when it's obvious they don't intend to keep their word.

She could never make someone do or not do something, no matter who the person was or what kind of relationship she had with them, even if it was just a trivial little thing. The only thing Gu Wan could do was take care of herself. When it came time for the appointment and the other person still hadn't shown up, she only needed to silently leave according to her original plan.

If she kept pestering and clinging on, stubbornly insisting on an explanation, all that awaited her was disappointment.

Gu Wan felt weary, she didn't want to feel disappointed anymore.

And now although Lu Yu had actually come down, Gu Wan still just smiled and said, "I was afraid of disturbing you, so I didn't go up."

Lu Yu found it hard to describe how he felt at this moment. Although she didn't show anything overtly, he still felt an unusual sense of concern. So casually, as if just chatting, Lu Yu brought up, "You really dislike people who don't keep their promises?"

Although he had only gone back on his word about accompanying her for a small matter, Lu Yu didn't use to care much. But seeing that look in her eyes, he immediately recalled all these instances.

Gu Wan was startled for a moment. "Dislike? I don't think I would go that far."

"There was a period of time when I did pay special attention to it. But after getting past that special time period, it got better."

Although no matter when, Gu Wan would never break her word, no matter how small the promise was. But she also knew that there were no perfect people in this world. As long as they were human, everyone had their own flaws here and there, it was completely normal.

So as Lu Yu felt her persistence, he also felt her tolerance towards others, and his own weight in that group of "others" was surely especially heavy.

After a while, Lu Yu hoarsely said, "You'll end up spoiling others like this."

Lu Yu finally realized, unknowingly, he had already been spoiled by her.

"But what can be done about it?"

Gu Wan seemed to laugh for a bit. For a moment, Lu Yu actually didn't dare look into her eyes.

The next second, he heard her say in an extremely soft voice, "Some things simply can't be forced..."

She wasn't tolerating others, she was just trying to spare herself.

A stretch of continuous heartache suddenly welled up in Lu Yu's heart.

Gu Wan turned her head and saw the man's eyes filled with what seemed like pain and anguish.

Gu Wan was startled, then seemed to react. She asked, "Could it be that you lied to me a lot before?"

Although Lu Yu didn't say anything, his expression had already given the answer.

Gu Wan was still just as amiable, "It's okay since I don't remember anyway."

But she discovered that the more she said, the more intense the emotions in the man's eyes became.

Before Gu Wan could speak again, she heard him say, "It won't happen again in the future."

And this, was still a promise.

Gu Wan's movements halted for a moment. When she heard this, she couldn't help but smile: "Alright, I know." As for whether she really took this to heart, the answer was obvious.

Lu Yu felt a slight soreness in his heart, but he did not mind.

The two of them stayed outside until ten o'clock at night. In between, they also took a boat ride and toured a lake.

All around the lake shore were people taking their pets for walks. Lu Yu saw several large dogs enthusiastically catching frisbees, then looked at Beibei who had already started fussing to be carried after just walking a little further. Seeing Gu Wan staring over at them, Lu Yu thought she was interested, so he said: "Do you want another pet?"

Although Lu Yu was not very enthusiastic about pets himself, if Gu Wan liked them then he did not mind getting a few more for their home.

Yet in the next moment, without even thinking it over, Gu Wan declined: "No need."

Gu Wan then added: "For my whole life, just Beibei is enough."

No matter what others thought, Gu Wan would not get a second dog. Although it sounded laughable to say a pet was the "one and only", as long as she did not find it funny, then all was fine.

Lu Yu was visibly startled, then he did not say anything further.

By the time they returned home, it was already very late. The two of them went to the master bedroom. After closing the door, it was still Lu Yu who helped her wash up and get ready for bed.

Seeing him getting drenched in sweat from the exertion halfway through the process, Gu Wan wondered what exactly he was trying to accomplish and why he suddenly enjoyed this.

After Gu Wan exited the bathroom, after quite some time passed, Lu Yu finally picked up his phone nearby and sent out a message.

[Help me investigate something.]

Even though it was just an offhand remark Gu Wan made back at the grasslands, Lu Yu still remembered she had attended the same middle school as him.

Lu Yu suddenly became interested in learning more about many things regarding Gu Wan's past that he never cared about before.
