Chapter 453 Forced Marriage
As night falls, the city lights twinkle like stars.
The Gu family's villa was quiet.
Gu Suiwan dragged her tired body home, her eyes revealing a hint of loss and exhaustion, as if she were shrouded in a gloom.
Looking at Gu Suiwan's pensive expression, Li Yan couldn't help but feel a sense of worry.
She walked quietly to Gu Suiwan's room and knocked on the door.
"Suiwan, are you there? Mom's coming in." Li Yan's voice was gentle and caring.
Gu Suiwan looked up and replied, "Mom, come in."
Li Yan pushed open the door and saw Gu Suiwan sitting at her desk with a pile of documents spread out in front of her. Her tone was full of concern.
"It's almost the end of the year, what's wrong? You don't seem very happy."
Li Yan walked to Gu Suiwan's side and gently stroked her hair.
Gu Suiwan sighed and said, "Mom, I spent all day looking for a shop, but I couldn't find a suitable one. Either the location was bad, the rent was too expensive, or the shop was too small."
Gu Suiwan looked dejected and helpless.
Li Yan smiled and comforted her: "Don't be discouraged at the end of the year. Finding a shop is not an easy thing. It takes time and patience."
You must believe in yourself; you will definitely find the right one.
Gu Suiwan nodded and said, "Mom, I understand. Thank you for your comfort. I will continue to work hard."
A glimmer of hope rekindled in Gu Suiwan's heart, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
The next day, the sun shines brightly.
Li Yan decided to accompany Gu Suiwan to look for a shop.
They wandered through the city's streets and alleys, carefully examining and analyzing every shop they saw.
"Mom, what do you think of this shop? The location seems pretty good, but I don't know how much the rent is."
Gu Suiwan pointed to a shop on the street, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Li Yan looked at it carefully and said, "Let's go in and ask. But, Suiwan, you need to think it over carefully. You need to consider not only the location, but also the surrounding environment and the flow of people."
They went into the store and started talking to the landlord.
However, after some investigation, it was discovered that the store had some problems and was not suitable for opening a dessert shop.
Although Gu Suiwan and Li Yan were somewhat disappointed, they did not give up and continued to travel to various corners of the city.
Although I was physically tired, my heart was filled with joy and hope.
On the other hand, Duan Yujing is facing pressure from his grandfather to get married.
The atmosphere inside the Duan family's old house was unusually tense.
Grandpa Duan sat on the sofa, his face serious, his eyes revealing a sense of authority.
"Yu Jing, you're not getting any younger, it's time to get married. When are you and Li Yan having your wedding?"
Duan Yujing frowned, feeling somewhat helpless.
"Dad, I don't want to get married right now. I have a lot of things to do," Duan Yujing tried to brush it off.
Duan Yujing followed Li Yan's lead in everything.
She didn't want to be busy with the wedding recently, and he didn't pressure Li Yan.
Moreover, he and Li Yan had already held a grand and unforgettable wedding.
Li Yan isn't really keen on having a wedding right now.
But Old Master Duan, unaware of this, stomped his feet in anger, shouting, "You disobedient child! I don't care, you have to give me an explanation. I'm giving you a deadline; if you don't act now, I'll personally come and arrange things for you!"
Duan Yujing sighed helplessly: "Grandpa, please don't force me. I'll consider it."
At the hospital, Gu Tingyan used his physical discomfort as an excuse to have Jiang Yi stay by his side as his private doctor.
"Jiang Yi, I really think you are the most suitable doctor. Only you understand my situation best. Please help me."
