The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend

Chapter 601: Trending Actor Chi Yu Accompanies Girlfriend to Hospital, Suspected to Be..._3

She would only ever say it like that.He waited to see what else Gu Yuan would say—

Just as that girl fan was about to lean in a little more for another look, Gu Yuan raised her hand to signal at the other woman’s behavior: "Sorry, you really got the wrong person. He’s my husband. I’m not feeling well today so my husband’s here with me at the hospital. It’s an honor you guys mistook him for a celeb, but he really isn’t that star. What you’re doing right now is a bit out of line."

As soon as those words fell.

Chi Yu’s lowered eyes suddenly lifted, his gaze landing on the back of Gu Yuan’s neck, some strange emotion churning in his dark pupils.

The girl fan’s move drew the curiosity of the people nearby; they all glanced over, wondering what was going on.

The girl fan hadn’t reacted yet, but her bestie’s face had already turned embarrassed.

She tugged at her a couple of times, lowered her voice and whispered, "Hey, that’s her husband. The couple’s here to see a doctor, he’s not some big movie star."

The girl fan was still a bit dazed. She wasn’t exactly embarrassed—what popped into her head instead was: Chi Yu is married???

Of course, that first flash of reaction was quickly shoved aside for the time being.

That man wasn’t Chi Yu!

He was just some super handsome guy who happened to belong to someone else’s husband!

’Ding!’

The elevator doors slid open.

While Chi Yu was still in a bit of a daze, a warm touch slipped into his hand. He looked down to see Gu Yuan taking his hand, first giving it a light, tentative squeeze, then closing her fingers firmly around his and leading him out of the elevator.

The others, seeing that nothing was happening and pressed for time, all filed out one after another.

As Gu Yuan walked out, the girl fan was still spacing out, standing there blocking the way.

"Excuse me, can we get by?" Gu Yuan said.

Thankfully the girl fan’s bestie gave her a tug, pulling her to the side so Gu Yuan and Chi Yu could get out of the elevator smoothly.

As Chi Yu walked past the girl fan, her eyes flew wide open.

H-h-h-h-h-he!!!!!!!

Seeing the elevator doors about to close again, the bestie dragged the girl fan out: "What are you doing, you totally fried my brain just now."

Then added, "You didn’t see your own eyes just now, they were about to pop out like copper bells."

"Was it that ridiculous?" The girl fan touched her eyelids.

Thinking back to that side profile she’d just seen—how perfectly it matched the face on Baidu Baike, plus that very eye-catching tear mole—everything lined up exactly with his features.

"What is it?" Her bestie could tell something was off.

The girl fan giggled a few times, then leaned in with this mysterious tone and told her bestie, "That’s Chi Yu!!!"

"I can confirm it one hundred percent without a doubt."

"He really is Chi Yu!!"

Her bestie was shocked: "For real?"

The girl fan nodded: "For real, absolutely him. I didn’t see his mouth, but the face shape already overlapped perfectly with the photo."

"Could you be mistaken? There are a lot of people who look alike these days." The bestie remained skeptical, mainly feeling like they couldn’t be that lucky—just happen to come to the hospital and just happen to run into one of the hottest stars right now.

The girl fan nodded vigorously: "It’s him! It’s him! It’s definitely him!!"

She added, "That woman is so pretty, there’s no way she’s just his assistant or manager, holy shit..." The girl fan suddenly stared at her bestie in utter shock: "We just accidentally stumbled onto some major gossip!!"

"What major gossip?"

"Top male star Chi Yu secretly on a date with his girlfriend! No, wait, the headline could be: Top male star Chi Yu accompanies girlfriend to the hospital, suspected to be..."

???

...

Outside the hospital.

The one picking Gu Yuan up was the driver, Old Bai.

She and Chi Yu sat in the back. The car was currently headed toward the Gu Mansion. She was just about to ask if Chi Yu wanted to swing by his place to grab anything when she turned her head and met Chi Yu’s pitch-black eyes.

"What’s wrong?" She shelved what she’d been about to say.

Chi Yu had been looking at her for a long time. From the moment they stepped out of the elevator, through the hospital lobby, into the car—his gaze had never really left her.

And now, when their eyes met, he was the one who looked away first.

Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow. "Why are you clamming up again?"

Chi Yu stared straight ahead. "You’re always like this—give me this brief surprise and warmth, and just when I lose my head over that brief surprise and warmth, you stab me in the back without a second thought."

Gu Yuan: "..."

What a "stab me in the back," like she was some heinous serial killer or something.

"Sorry, I have no idea which incident you’re referring to?" Since he insisted on putting it that way, she might as well play dumb on purpose.

He continued staring ahead. "When you said just now that I’m your husband, did you think it through before saying it?"

"Nope." Gu Yuan said.

Chi Yu glanced at her, then drew his gaze back, falling silent, looking rather depressed.

Seeing his sulky expression, the smile she was holding back still crept onto Gu Yuan’s face. "You are my husband, why would I need to think it through?"

The moment the words landed.

His eyes snapped back to her.

Gu Yuan shrugged. "Am I wrong?"

Light flickered in Chi Yu’s dark pupils. He spoke softly, "Aren’t we divorced..."

Gu Yuan scooted over a bit closer to him. He glanced at her, not sure what she was about to say this time, waiting for her to speak—then heard her say, "When did the country pass a new law that says divorced couples can’t remarry?"

The way she said it, you’d think it was some century-old unsolved riddle.

Did the country make a rule that divorced couples can’t remarry?

Did it?

Chi Yu’s expression went blank. "...No."
