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

Chapter 35

Gu Wan reluctantly packed up her entire set of ski equipment and put it into the ski bag.

Upon receiving the news, the coach was almost moved to tears with joy. Ever since Gu Wan had arrived, he had been on edge every day, feeling like she might send him to the hospital at any moment.

The next day, however, when more than half of the registered students suddenly disappeared, the coach couldn't smile anymore.

He had thought his luck had finally turned around, but apparently not?

Meanwhile, Gu Wan certainly didn't care what her former coach was thinking. She was just curiously examining the private jet in front of her.

To be honest, this was Gu Wan's first time on a private jet. Although she had some money, a private jet was still a luxury item for her - something she could afford but needed to consider whether it was worth the price. So of course, Gu Wan didn't own one.

Seeing her unabashedly examining everything around her, Lu Yu curled his lips and asked, "Do you like it?"

"It's yours."

Lu Yu was about to make a call to transfer the ownership of the private jet to Gu Wan's name.

Gu Wan quickly withdrew her gaze and hurriedly grabbed his opened phone. "No need, no need."

What would she do with this thing? Every time she traveled, she only had Beibei, her dog, as a must-bring companion. She didn't need such a grand setup.

Not only was it useless, but it also required paying a large sum of parking fees, management fees, and many other expenses every year, adding up to at least several million. Although several million wasn't much, it was enough to invest in a small to medium-sized project. For her, it was purely burning money.

He had thought that after these few months, she wouldn't be so distant from him anymore...

Lu Yu was slightly lost in thought.

Gu Wan, however, had already turned her gaze to the window outside.

Two hours later, the plane landed steadily at the airport in City A.

After experiencing it, Gu Wan felt that a private jet was indeed much more comfortable than first class. At least Beibei had enough space to move around without disturbing others.

So, after the dividends from various places came in this year, should she consider getting one?

Gu Wan was tempted again.

But even if she wanted to buy one, there was no rush. Moreover, she had just refused Lu Yu's offer.

When Gu Wan got off the car holding Beibei, she looked up and saw the villa decorated with lights and full of festive colors. Looking around, Gu Wan found that even the neatly trimmed evergreen trees in the garden were hung with red ribbons, not to mention the clusters of roses climbing all over the fence.

Gu Wan noticed that the grass in the garden was green and showed no signs of withering or dying due to the change of seasons.

It wasn't until she had been standing for a while and her feet didn't get cold that Gu Wan belatedly realized that the garden also had underfloor heating.

Looking at the scene before her, Gu Wan was momentarily lost in thought.

Lu Yu, who got out of the car after her, saw that she had been standing still for a while and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Gu Wan came back to her senses and smiled, "Nothing."

After thinking for a moment, she added, "I just suddenly remembered that when I was little, I also liked to buy lots of pretty ribbons during the New Year and decorate the whole house beautifully before New Year's Eve."

Back then, Gu Wan would even tie a bow on every vase in the house.

As she spoke, Gu Wan pointed to the handrail at the villa's entrance, "See, just like this."

However, she didn't notice that when she finished speaking, Lu Yu's breath suddenly hitched.

What Lu Yu didn't tell Gu Wan was that this was also something she used to do here before she lost her memory. He had specially instructed the housekeeper this year, which was why it looked like this now.

So, in fact, Gu Wan had always treated this place as her home.

Before Lu Yu could continue his thoughts, he heard Gu Wan sigh softly, "Back then, I thought if I decorated the house beautifully, making it less cold and empty, my mom and dad would come back."

Later, she learned that if a person's heart wasn't in a place, it didn't matter how beautifully you decorated the house.

Gu Wan's tone was very calm when she talked about these things. Perhaps she had long passed that naive age.

Whether it was her parents, him, or many other people, they had all disappointed her expectations more than once.

He was indeed no different from those who had let her down.

A shadow of gloom passed through Lu Yu's eyes. He reached out, wanting to touch her cheek, but Gu Wan had already composed herself and pushed open the villa's door, walking in before he could.

Lu Yu's hand hovered in the air for a few seconds before slowly withdrawing.

Originally, Gu Wan found it strange that no one opened the door when they returned this time. When she entered the villa and found it empty without a single person in sight, she was even more surprised.

"Huh? Where are the housekeeper and the maids?"

Later, Gu Wan learned that early this morning, Lu Yu had given them time off, letting them go home to reunite with their families.

No matter how considerate the housekeeper and maids were usually, they were still just doing their job for money. They had their own families and lives, and even if they had feelings for their employers, it was indeed limited.

Lu Yu, who had hung his coat on the rack, ignored Beibei, who had gotten down but still felt unsatisfied and was circling around Gu Wan's feet. He stepped forward and embraced her from behind, leaning close to her ear and whispering, "For the next few days, it will be just the two of us at home."

Gu Wan only felt the man's breath coming towards her, carrying a faint scent of tobacco.

It seemed he had been smoking.

This thought flashed through Gu Wan's mind, but she didn't intend to dwell on it. She just sighed helplessly, "Then what are we going to do for the next few days?"

It wasn't that she couldn't understand that the housekeeper and maids also needed rest. It was just that Gu Wan knew her own culinary skills well. From childhood to adulthood, she had either eaten food made by maids or school cafeteria meals. Not long after graduation, she married Lu Yu and continued to live a life of eating food prepared by chefs. She really hadn't had many chances to cook for herself.

However, upon hearing this, Lu Yu's movements paused slightly. After losing her memory, Gu Wan had also forgotten the cooking skills she had acquired for him.

Lu Yu had eaten meals prepared by Gu Wan more than once. He opened his mouth, but in the end, couldn't bring himself to say it.

Gu Wan continued, "But nowadays, restaurants are open during the New Year period, right? It's only the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, I feel like we could still call a home service company in time..."

Gu Wan was listing solutions to the problem in detail. Her slender white neck moved slightly with her breathing, emitting a faint cool fragrance.

Lu Yu couldn't control himself and kissed her deeply.

In the end, the two of them went out together, pushing a cart to the supermarket to buy the food ingredients needed for the New Year.

Gu Wan was surprised to find that nearly half of the refrigerator was empty. Logically, the housekeeper and the maids shouldn't be so careless. Even if one was careless, it was impossible for all of them to be so negligent. After careful consideration, Gu Wan couldn't help but think, Lu Yu was really bored...

She didn't understand why he liked to do such meaningless things.

Although she thought this, Gu Wan still went out with him in the end.

There happened to be an imported supermarket not far from the villa area. The two of them spent over an hour picking and choosing before they bought everything they needed.

Early the next morning, Gu Wan had just finished breakfast when Lu Yu dragged her to the entrance to paste couplets.

Looking at the man who had already brought out the ladder, Gu Wan thought for a moment, but in the end, swallowed the words that had come to her lips.

Just as Gu Wan was secretly pondering what kind of hobby this was, she inadvertently noticed that the neighbors in the adjacent villa seemed to be watching from afar.

"This couple's relationship is really good..."

Faintly, from the scattered passersby, Gu Wan seemed to hear such sighs.

Gu Wan suddenly realized.

But some things, the more you try to prove them, the more it means they don't exist.

Just like that giant wedding photo in the living room.

Gu Wan, feeling quite helpless, didn't say anything.

By noon, Gu Wan was half-lying on the sofa watching TV. Lu Yu seemed to be busy with work somewhere. When Gu Wan finally pulled herself out of the movie plot, she realized that Lu Yu had gone to the kitchen at some point, and sizzling sounds were even coming from there.

Gu Wan hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to get up and walk over.

At this moment, Lu Yu was doing something that only Gu Wan used to do. Noticing Gu Wan watching from the side for a while, he seemed to think of something and then opened the refrigerator behind him.

Lu Yu's movements with the pot handle suddenly became a bit lighter.

This was already very good, even if her initial intention wasn't for herself.

The more she looked, the more it seemed off. She glanced at Beibei, who had somehow gathered around her feet. After a good while, Lu Yu first froze, then chuckled.

It turned out she was just making dog food.

Gu Wan thought it was one thing if the two humans had nothing to eat, but they couldn't let Beibei eat dog food during the New Year, could they?

It's worth noting that except for occasional emergencies, Gu Wan had always fed Beibei fresh meats and vegetables from all over the world.

At first, Gu Wan thought Beibei wouldn't mind her cooking skills, but when she actually started, she discovered that her culinary abilities were surprisingly not bad.

Gu Wan quickly deleted the basic tutorial and searched for the master version of gourmet dog meals instead.

At 11:30 AM, as Lu Yu brought the last dish to the dining table, Gu Wan also successfully scooped out the final lobster, poured sauce over it, and placed it in front of Beibei.

Lu Yu: "..."

Seeing Gu Wan crouching there, unwilling to leave until she saw Beibei finish everything, Lu Yu couldn't help but rub his brow and urged, "Xiao Wan, come eat lunch quickly."

"...Oh." Quite reluctantly, after observing the whole process, Gu Wan washed her hands and sat down opposite Lu Yu.

Then Gu Wan discovered that Lu Yu's cooking skills seemed quite good too.

She felt he was quite capable in many ways.

So far, apart from his fear of heights, Gu Wan hadn't found any other flaws in him.

Gu Wan didn't hesitate to praise him, "It's delicious."

Lu Yu couldn't help but smile, "I learned all this while studying abroad."

As he spoke, he pushed the stir-fried shrimp that Gu Wan liked a little closer to her.

Gu Wan's movements paused, and she replied, "I see."

She didn't continue asking, seemingly not very interested in his past, nor willing to delve into his various experiences.

Gu Wan had always only been curious about people she cared about.

Lu Yu gently removed the rice grains from his chopsticks bit by bit. Then he thought of something he had to bring up during this time close to the New Year.

Lu Yu slowly exhaled, and after a while, he said, "Tomorrow is the 29th, and the day after is New Year's Eve. You might need to accompany me back to the old house to meet my grandfather... and father."

Gu Wan didn't notice the flash of disgust in his eyes when he mentioned "father". At this moment, Gu Wan's mind was left with only one thought—

Wait, Lu Yu actually has a father and grandfather??

After the slight shock, Gu Wan belatedly realized that Lu Yu wasn't like her; of course he would have a father and grandfather.
