Can We Say No to Divorce?-Chapter 626 - 385: When to pursue further studies

Chapter 626: Chapter 385: When to pursue further studies
Lu Xiao took a deep breath under the starry sky, then took out a letter from her pocket and handed it to Zhuo Yufeng, who took it with suspicion: "What’s this?"
Upon seeing it, he was overjoyed: "This is an admission from the Crime Psychology department in the United States. They’ve accepted you? When are you going to study there?"
For a policewoman, it’s very necessary to study and improve oneself before getting married and having children. After having children, a woman’s nature is inevitably focused on them, and it becomes difficult to devote as much energy to further study in her career.
Lu Xiao sighed: "I originally didn’t want to go because I wanted to stay with Brother Gu..."
Zhuo Yufeng instantly rebuked her: "You’ve already promised me that you’ll break up with him. Why wouldn’t you go? Besides, think about it, Xiao Xiao. Even if Ji Su, who’s pregnant with your boyfriend’s child, doesn’t expect Gu Yucheng to take responsibility, do you think Gu Yucheng can just stand by and do nothing? Do you think you can tolerate them still being involved with each other? Be good, listen to Uncle Zhuo’s advice, and go study well in the United States!"
However, Lu Xiao burst into laughter, "Really thought you were an uncle, a senior? I’ve decided to go now, and I’ll set off first thing tomorrow morning!"
"Good!" Zhuo Yufeng immediately said, "I’ll keep your job for you. After you come back, you’ll still be part of our major case squad."
Seeing Zhuo Yufeng as if he couldn’t wait for her to leave, Lu Xiao softly said, "Okay!"
After she finished, she prepared to go upstairs.
Zhuo Yufeng hurriedly followed, and Lu Xiao gave him a look, "What are you doing here?"
"Of course, I can’t let you and him have something happen before you depart," Zhuo Yufeng stated.
Lu Xiao snorted: "You really are nosy, Uncle Zhuo!"
The two entered the door together, and Zhuo Yufeng saw Gu Yucheng lying asleep on the couch. Just as he was about to kick out Gu Yucheng, Lu Xiao stopped him, "Zhuo sir, if you dare touch a hair on his head, I’ll never let you off."
Lu Xiao agreeing to go study doesn’t mean she will allow Zhuo Yufeng to bully Gu Yucheng.
Zhuo Yufeng looked at Lu Xiao, who was also defending Gu Yucheng with a very firm attitude.
Zhuo Yufeng gave in: "I’ll stay here tonight."
"Whatever!" Lu Xiao went into her own bedroom, closed the door, then sat in the chair beside her desk.
Lu Xiao covered her face with her hands; to say she wasn’t emotional would be a lie. Her brother had disappeared without a trace, and now Gu Yucheng was embroiled in issues with his ex-wife and their child. Perhaps, she had always been an outsider. Thus, going abroad for study seemed to be the best choice.
The next day, early morning.
Gu Yucheng was unable to wake up, trapped in a nightmare where he saw Ji Su lying on the operating table, her life hanging by a thread.
"Susu, you have to hang on..." Gu Yucheng gripped Ji Su’s hand tightly, "You must survive, you still have Wanwan, and you have me..."
With tears in her eyes, Ji Su gazed at him: "Yucheng, I’m sorry, my life is at risk, the doctor says the child cannot be saved either... I’m sorry, I always wanted to bear you a son. He would grow up as handsome and charming as you, he wouldn’t suffer the abandonment of a father or the indifference of a mother, he would grow up in our arms, but I cannot fulfill this promise..."
"Don’t say anymore, Susu..." Gu Yucheng choked up, "I just want you, I only want you to live well..."
Shortly after, Ji Su was pushed into the operating room, and Gu Yucheng woke up amidst his anxious wait.
Gu Yucheng fell off the sofa onto the floor; he seemed to have not fully recovered from the bad dream and couldn’t snap back to reality.
"Susu..." Gu Yucheng called her name, then got up, realizing he was in a strange place, in Lu Xiao’s room...
Gu Yucheng then realized it was a dream, he distinctly felt the tears in his eyes.
Gu Yucheng washed his face, trying to make himself more alert, yet his mind was full of the dream he just had.
He stood in front of the mirror, looking at the skinny man in the reflection – once an undefeated man, always victorious, now just an ordinary person tortured by love.
Gu Yucheng gathered himself; he knew what he had to do now.
He came out, the door to Lu Xiao’s bedroom was open; he couldn’t see her, thinking she’d gone on duty, so he left.
When he reached outside the neighborhood, he saw Lu Xiao standing in front of a car, her eyes still watching in the direction he had come from. When she saw him, her face lit up with joy.
Lu Xiao hadn’t expected that before leaving City A, she would have the chance to see Gu Yucheng once more.
