Chapter 235: Mom, Divorce, Leave Him

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Gu Ci pulled out a chair without paying much attention, and Lu Zhiyuan couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

Lu Zhiyuan was frustrated. Recently, he had been sleeping at night and waking up to spend his first night with Gu Ci. He had been playing the role of Third Young Master during the day, and it took him a moment to switch back.

Lu Zhiyuan thought to himself, “Don’t make any more mistakes. You’re not Third Young Master anymore!”

With a stern face, he created a silent atmosphere and wouldn’t initiate conversation. Gu Ci served him soup and placed it in front of him, smiling, “Try the taste of the soup; it should be very flavorful.”

Lu Zhiyuan remained silent, took a sip, and Gu Ci asked eagerly, “Is it delicious?”

“It’s okay,” he replied.

Gu Ci smiled and offered him some meat, saying, “Then eat more.”

Lu Zhiyuan spoke coldly, “Gu Ci, I’m not him.”

“Do you want beef brisket or spare ribs?” Gu Ci seemed not to have heard and muttered to herself, “The beef brisket is stewed to be very tender, and the spare ribs are also fragrant. You should like them both!”

She served him some beef brisket and sweet and sour spare ribs.

Third Young Master liked foods with higher protein content, while Third Master enjoyed meat and didn’t pay much attention to nutrition. Gu Ci sipped her avocado juice and watched him with a smile.

Lu Zhiyuan’s reflexes made him want to smile, but he held back.

Once you get used to acting like someone, some habits are hard to break.

In recent days, the food he had eaten was all bland, and his mouth had grown accustomed to it. This New Year’s Eve dinner was sumptuous, and Lu Zhiyuan really enjoyed it. Although he was usually reserved about his likes, he had eaten more than half of a plate of curry beef, and Gu Ci could tell that he genuinely liked it.

This dinner was very quiet, and Lu Zhiyuan no longer spoiled the mood. He enjoyed every dish, and even though the fruit juice wasn’t his favorite, he didn’t refuse it. Over the past few days, Gu Ci had been feeding him various fruits, and he had gotten used to it.

Lu Zhiyuan was still recovering from his injuries, so he ate slowly. It took him an hour to finish the meal. After dinner, Li Jiang and Jin Wei cleaned up, and Gu Ci pushed Lu Zhiyuan to the window to watch the snowfall outside.

“It’s a bit lonely for Ziyu to be alone at home, would you like to video call him?” Gu Ci suggested.

“Up to you,” Lu Zhiyuan replied with indifference.

Gu Ci didn’t mind and initiated a video call with Gu Ziyu. Gu Ziyu was spending New Year’s Eve at the Jiangs’ house and had been well taken care of, looking fair and tender.

“Mom, Happy New Year!” Gu Ziyu was playing Sudoku in his room, showing off his achievements. After Gu Ci praised him, he asked, “Where is Uncle and the others?”

“They are preparing New Year’s gifts,” Gu Ziyu replied. He moved the camera, and the Jiang Minghua couple could be seen working on the gifts. Gu Ci even overheard Jiang Minghua say, “Junlin is not at home, although it’s a bit regrettable, it’s really nice… we haven’t seen his recipes all evening.”

Gu Ci couldn’t help but stifle a laugh as she greeted her family members. The old lady and old master were originally playing chess, and they were also delighted to see her. The family chatted happily for half an hour, and then Gu Ziyu took his phone upstairs. Gu Ci turned the camera to Lu Zhiyuan.

Gu Ziyu had a cold expression. “1 don’t want to talk to him!”

Lu Zhiyuan looked at Gu Ziyu in the video but didn’t mind his attitude.

With a cold face, he resembled Third Master when he was like this, carved from the same mold, and a bit intimidating, especially now that Ziyu had lost some of his spoiled and sullen mannerisms, making him more like Third Master. “What’s wrong?” Gu Ziyu asked.

“Fraud!” Gu Ziyu stared at him, his eyes blazing. “Are you trying to tease me, Third Master?”

Call him dad? Impossible!

Lu Zhiyuan also understood why he was angry. “I told you!”

“When did you tell me?” Gu Ziyu demanded.

“I said it; I’m your dad!”

“Fuck!” Gu Ziyu was furious. “It’s outrageous! In that context, anyone would think you’re joking!”

“I’m not joking!”

Gu Ziyu remarked with a sarcastic tone, “Through the internet, who knows if you’re joking or not?”

Gu Ci tried to mediate, “Third Master, how about you apologize to him?”

“Impossible!”

Gu Ziyu said in a strange tone, “Mom, get a divorce and we can live together, without him.”

Lu Zhiyuan calmly stated, “We’re not married yet!”

“You’re just so unlikable!” Gu Ziyu sneered. “I prefer the dad who just went live, hurry up and go to sleep!”

Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan remained silent, creating an awkward and tense atmosphere.

Lu Zhiyuan nervously glanced at Gu Ci, who seemed to be smiling and not saying much, which eased his worries.

He couldn’t help but wonder, was Third Young Master really so likable?

Was he really so unlikable?

“Mom, move the camera away. I don’t want to see him!” Gu Ziyu was irritated. Gu Ci chuckled and moved the camera away.

The mother and son continued their video call, with Gu Ziyu’s tone becoming soft and gentle as he asked, “Mom, when are you coming back? I miss you.”

Lu Zhiyuan witnessed the abrupt change in the young man’s mood.

“Mom will be back soon.”

“Then I’ll pick you up!”

“Alright!”

After some more casual conversation, Gu Ziyu reluctantly hung up. Lu Zhiyuan still couldn’t grasp the reality that Gu Ziyu was his son.

Suddenly having a rebellious son at the age of twenty, and never having raised him for a day, made it difficult to establish any substantial connection.

After ending the video call, there were some fireworks in the distance. Gu Ci stood by the window, watching the fireworks. Lu Zhiyuan had already laid down on the bed; his physical condition didn’t allow him to sit for long.

As he watched Gu Ci enjoy the fireworks, he couldn’t help but think about their past life. Had he and Gu Ci fallen in love and gotten married? If she loved him… it must have been Third Young Master she loved, and the one she married must have been Third Young Master as well!

But why hadn’t Gu Ci realized his split personality?

A person’s character and intelligence didn’t change with reincarnation. They had dated, gotten married, and spent their days together. Gu Ci was a sensitive and intelligent woman; she should have noticed something was amiss.

Why… was she testing him again in this life?

When she fell from the tall building, it was just a test of his split personality. Did that mean that in their previous life, she was unaware of his existence and had always believed they were both Third Young Master?

Impossible!

Could it be that when he acted as Third Young Master at night, they were a couple? How could Third Young Master be willing to do that? How could he?

Unless… both he and Third Young Master deeply loved her and had compromised, loving her together. That’s why Gu Ci hadn’t noticed anything unusual, and that’s why she was so stubborn!

A sudden sharp pain pierced Lu Zhiyuan’s mind. It was a severe pain he hadn’t experienced after regaining consciousness as if something was poking at his nerves. He covered his head with one hand, lying on the soft pillow, cold sweat drenching him. Gu Ci sensed his change in breathing, turned to look at him, and her face paled. “Lu Zhiyuan, what’s wrong?”

She held his hand tightly, and he momentarily forgot his persona. “Cici, call a doctor. I have a headache!”

After saying this, he lost consciousness.

“Li Jiang! Summon a doctor!” Gu Ci shouted in a panic.

In the deep night of New Year’s Day, an unexpected crisis unfolded. Gu Ci, caught off guard, had secured the area like a fortress, fearing that Lu Zhiyuan might have been poisoned or attacked. She had personally checked every food item he consumed, all of which she had randomly purchased.. Why did he suddenly have a headache and lose consciousness after recovering from his injuries?
