When Gu Yu Cheng returned to the company, he locked himself in his office all afternoon.

He thought about how he could end this strange experience and return to reality, his real world.

That place has the woman he loves, his children, and his responsibilities.

Gu Yu Cheng tried to find clues about the things that happened before he was transported to this place.

Just then, a knock on his office door by Wang Zhou sounded.

Wang Zhou deliberated over what to say and spoke, “Chairman, uh… Miss Bai is here. She said that she wants to speak to you about what happened last night.”

During last night’s annual meeting, the chairman drank too much and went to the hotel room to rest. He wasn’t sure of what happened midway, and he just heard a few passersby saying that they saw the chairman and Bai Xin Yu in the same room.

Originally, it may not hold much weight with a few passersby’s unclear words.

But the small rumour quickly spread on the internet because Bai Xin Yu, a famous celebrity, has just returned to the country.

In the end, it was he who used Gu Company’s network to suppress the popularity of this rumour.

From his understanding of the chairman, Wang Zhou felt that the incident last night was mostly a misunderstanding.

However, since this matter was related to the chairman’s personal reputation, it would depend on how he wants to deal with it.

Moreover, Miss Bai and the chairman were classmates. They are considered old acquaintances. Miss Bai came because of last night’s incident, so Wang Zhou did not give much thought and invited her in.

However, Wang Zhou did not expect the chairman’s face to change so quickly after hearing who came.

“Bai Xin Yu?” Gu Yu Cheng asked coldly.

“Uh, yes.” Gu Yu Cheng’s attitude made Wang Zhou momentarily unsure. “She said that she wanted to talk to you, the chairman, about last night’s incident.”

……

Bai Xin Yu was very sure that Gu Yu Cheng would meet her.

It was just that Bai Xin Yu did not expect that he would actually have such an expression when she sees Gu Yu Cheng again in this life.

It was not the indifference she was familiar with.

Gu Yu Cheng looked at her with a look of utter disgust, a hint of hostility, as well as a killing intent. This made Bai Xin Yu shudder in fear.

“What do you want to say?” Gu Yu Cheng asked coldly.

Gu Yu Cheng could not possibly have a good expression with this woman who had hurt his wife and child.

If it was in his previous world, he would have already sent this woman to the security room.

Gu Yu Cheng’s attitude disrupted her pre-planned pace. Presently, Bai Xin Yu could only bolster herself and rigidly said, “Er… Er… I actually came here today to talk to you about last night’s incident.”

In her last life, she was forced to come back when she was 37 years old and met Gu Yu Cheng by chance at the same hotel.

At that time, she found that she was in the wrong room. And very coincidentally, she walked to the door of Gu Yu Cheng’s suite by mistake.

In fact, she did not go to his room and didn’t even know the person was Gu Yu Cheng, whom she had a crush on when she was young.

However, just when she was about to leave, she was photographed by the paparazzi waiting for Gu Yu Cheng.

From an angle, the photo does easily cause people to misunderstand her coming out of the room.

Thirty-seven-year-old Chairman Gu was unmarried and did not have a girlfriend. This originally garnered a lot of attention from the outside world. That room number was the temporary resting room of Chairman Gu.

As soon as the photo was published, it caused quite a buzz on the internet.

However, the photos online and comments were removed by Gu Company.

But there were still people around her who knew that it was her when they saw the photo online.

Those people around her were talking very harshly about it. They were saying that she was trying to pay off her debts by hooking up with rich people.

When one doesn’t have anything, they are especially concerned about their reputation.

This was how she was in her previous life.

She was so distraught by the rumours and suspicions of the people around her that she sought help from Gu Yu Cheng.

At that time, Gu Yu Cheng was very busy and did not seem to care about these things.

She went to Gu Yu Cheng, and he gave her two options. One was to let her handle herself by giving her a sum of money to spend however she likes and find a lawyer to settle the rumours around her.

What Bai Xin Yu did not expect was the second option Gu Yu Cheng gave her. It was to take responsibility for the rumours and give her the status of “Mrs Gu,” help her settle the Bai family’s debts, and all she had to do was sign a contract and live peacefully as Mrs Gu at home.

At that time, she chose the latter without any hesitation.

After her rebirth, she returned back to the country ten years earlier with the regrets she had in her past life.

The accident and coincidence of her previous life could not happen. But she could fabricate the same misunderstanding of her previous life.

Things went well. Furthermore, because she was now a popular celebrity and with the studio’s actions in the background, the whole misunderstanding spread very quickly online.

Even though Gu Company was suppressing public opinions, there were still a lot of discussions online.

Bai Xin Yu acted to be troubled about it and said, “It is true that it is hard to explain what happened last night, but I am a public figure. Those comments online…”

As long as Gu Yu Cheng offers to take responsibility for the public opinions, she can become Mrs Gu once again.

In this life, she would definitely cherish what she has.

Bai Xin Yu has already begun to imagine a bright future.

However, in the next second, it was mercilessly shattered by Gu Yu Cheng.

Gu Yu Cheng sneered with mockery. “What do you want me to do? To be responsible for the online public opinion, or to be responsible towards you?”

“Uh, I…” Ignoring the hostility in Gu Yu Cheng’s tone, Bai Xin Yu’s heart started to race.

Unfortunately, the next thing she heard was Gu Yu Cheng saying, “Did Miss Bai forget that the hotel has surveillance?”

Although Gu Yu Cheng did not experience it himself and he was unaware of the actual situation last night, he felt that there would be nothing between him and Bai Xin Yu based on his sharpness and self-consciousness as a married man.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xin Yu’s face hardened.

Of course, she knew of this. But Gu Yu Cheng did not bother about these things in her previous life!

“Yu Cheng, why are you…”

“Put away those preconceived ideas of yours. Also, take your team and get lost.”

When Wang Zhou entered the chairman’s office, he saw an aghast Bai Xin Yu being “escorted” out of the office by two security guards.

What exactly happened? Why did Miss Bai’s face look so ugly? Wang Zhou also felt immense fear.

“Wang Zhou.”

Upon hearing the chairman’s voice, Wang Zhou hurriedly entered the office.

“Chairman.”

“Pull out the hotel surveillance from last night. Post it online and send out an announcement to dispel the rumours. In addition, have a lawyer contact Bai Xin Yu’s studio. If they continue to waver public opinion, undergo legal proceedings. One last thing, go and investigate the Bai family’s debts over the years, Bai Xin Yu’s sources of income abroad, as well as the financial issues and tax evasions in recent years.”

Although Gu Yu Cheng had a strong premonition that he would not stay in this place for too long, he did not mind solving some hidden issues for “him” in this world in advance before he leaves.

After Gu Yu Cheng finished his sentence, he looked at Wang Zhou and asked, “What business do you have?”

“Oh, right. Miss Su Rui came again and is currently downstairs.

The word “again” clearly reflects Wang Zhou’s disapproval of Miss Su’s previous visit to make a fuss. However, Wang Zhou was momentarily indecisive due to the chairman’s strange behaviour from last night until now as well as the visit to the Su family’s residence.

“Chairman, you see what….”

“Let her leave.” Gu Yu Cheng said succinctly.

“All right.”

“Hold on.” When Wang Zhou was about to leave and asked “Su Rui” to leave, he was stopped by Gu Yu Cheng.

“Take her to the small conference room next door.”

“Uh, okay.” You are the boss; you have the final say.

……

Gu Yu Cheng still felt it was strange seeing “Su Rui” dressed in a hip-hop outfit in the meeting room.

“Say, what do you want?” Gu Yu Cheng looked at “Su Rui” in front of him and asked.

“I… I want to ask what exactly is the purpose of visiting my house this morning.”

After that blind date, “Su Rui” pursued Gu Yu Cheng and tried to come to Gu Company several times. Unfortunately, she faced hurdles a few times. The young girl also wanted to save face, so she temporarily tossed this man out of her mind.

But Gu Yu Cheng’s sudden visit caused a spark in “Su Rui’s” heart again.

“I came to apologise for what happened before. I made it very clear when I was at your house.”

“There is nothing else other than the apology?”

“That’s all.”

“You’re lying!” “Su Rui” did not believe Gu Yu Cheng’s words.

“I’ve come to find you so many times before. You wouldn’t let me in. And today, you came to my house. Why? Did you regret it? Did you fall in love with me? Let me tell you…”

Gu Yu Cheng furrowed his brows in annoyance while hearing “Su Rui” rambling to herself.

He felt that he really could not communicate with the girl in front of him.

According to what he would usually do, he would probably throw this girl out now.

It was just that Gu Yu Cheng felt that, even though he knew that this person was not Su Rui, he could not do that while looking at a face exactly like Su Rui’s.

Gu Yu Cheng looked at “Su Rui” and said, “I don’t like you.”

“I don’t believe you! Then who do you like? The sickly girl who just left your office?”

“No.” Gu Yu Cheng froze for a moment and continued, “I’m telling you upfront just to avoid any misunderstanding. Regarding the rest, it is none of your business.”

“Furthermore, I have someone I love.” Here, Gu Yu Cheng used the word “love” and not a mere “like.”

“Who?”

“My wife.”

Upon hearing Gu Yu Cheng’s answer, “Su Rui’s” face was immediately filled with shock. “Your wife? You have a wife? You’re married? What unspeakable matter do you have that you actually conceal your marriage? You have a wife, and you’re still out on blind dates. You are cheating on my feelings! Scum!”

As “Su Rui” cursed at him, she raised the cup of water and hurled it at Gu Yu Cheng. Then, she turned and trotted away.

Gu Yu Cheng, who was splashed with water, raised his hand to wipe the water on his face.

When did he cheat on her feelings? The original owner in this world did not, and neither did he.

Gu Yu Cheng wanted to refute.

However, in the next second, all he could see was darkness.

……

“Gu An An! I asked you to wake your dad up, not for you to take advantage of the opportunity to retaliate! Do you believe that your dad will beat you up when he gets up?!”

“I didn’t. It was my maternal grandpa who said that washing your face with cold water is healthy and keeps you awake.”

“Sophistry. Is that the original words of what your maternal grandpa said?” …

The familiar sound of his wife and son’s conversation in his ears instantly woke Gu Yu Cheng up. He sat up from the bed.

He took the wet towel soaked with cold water off his face. From a single glance by Gu Yu Cheng, Gu An An, who knew that he did something wrong, was sprinting with his short legs in the direction of the living room and Su Rui.

“Gu An An, run slowly at home!” Su Rui admonished and walked to the bedside with a cup of nourishing tea for the stomach.

“You’re awake. Drink this first.”

Su Rui handed the quilt to Gu Yu Cheng. Then, she lifted her hands and gently massaged Gu Yu Cheng’s head.

The next second, her hand was held by Gu Yu Cheng.

Su Rui glanced at Gu Yu Cheng and asked, “Doesn’t your head hurt anymore?”

“Why is An An here?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.

After that ten-hour trip through the other time and space, Gu Yu Cheng was sure that he was back. But he was unsure what time it was.

“Mum is going to physical therapy tomorrow, so I picked Gu An An after he finished his lessons.”

“He has already finished class?”

“Pftt.” Upon hearing Gu Yu Cheng’s question, Su Rui could not help but laugh. Then, she glared at Gu Yu Cheng.

“Do you know what time it is? It’s already 7:00 in the evening. It’s getting dark. You’ve been sleeping all day. Are you confused from your sleep?” Su Rui complained.

Su Rui pinched Gu Yu Cheng’s ears to punish him.

“Mr Gu, you are now in your early thirties. Can you do things with a sense of proportion and degree?”

Regarding drinking and that thing.

It’s not like he is a youngster in his teens or twenties to just do whatever he wants.

As Su Rui spoke of this, her body swayed, and she was hugged tightly in Gu Yu Cheng’s arms.

“Yu Cheng, what are you doing?”

“Let me hug you.”

Although it was a very short time and really dream-like, that kind of fear and anxiety can only be understood only after experiencing that world without Su Rui.

At this moment, Gu Yu Cheng finally calmed down after hugging the woman in his arms and hearing her voice.

“I had a dream while I was asleep.”

“What dream?”

Gu Yu Cheng froze for a moment. He smiled and said, “A dream that we would have another daughter.”

The author has something to say:

I did not expect this extra to be so long as I wrote it. Haha.

This chapter explains Su Rui’s origins. Actually, Su Rui nearly drowned to death when she was thirteen years old. They happened to transmigrate to each other’s world,^[1] and then Su Rui transmigrated back.

Also, the other “Su Rui” is a little rebellious, a loud personality, and a free-spirited young girl. She isn’t bad. You can just say that her personality is not suitable for “Gu Yu Cheng.” Haha.

^[1] This would mean that Su Rui transmigrated into “Su Rui’s” world (the world where Su Rui suffers from AS syndrome), while “Su Rui” transmigrated into Su Rui’s world. So technically the world Su Rui thought she transmigrated into is actually the world she came from.
