Reborn To Love

Chapter 267 Yi Qiansi’s Story (1)

He Xinyan nodded, “We will.”

Gu Yechen smiled as he kissed her gently on the forehead one last time before he reluctantly let go of her and turned around, walking out the room.

Yi Qiansi immediately closed the door, and He Xinyan was left alone inside of the room again. 

However, she wasn’t so sad anymore. She had met Gu Yechen and he was alive!

He also promised to get her out of her as soon as he could, and he never broke his promises to her. She trusted him. . .

Besides, she wasn’t alone anymore.

He Xinyan looked down as she placed one hand over her stomach. Maybe it was only her mind playing tricks on her, but she almost felt a small feet kick her stomach.

She smiled and rubbed her stomach gently. She had to take good care of herself now, because she wasn’t alone.

This baby. . . Her baby with Gu Yechen. . . She had to take very good care of him.

Gu Yechen left the castle with his workers under Yi Qiansi’s escort, and he glared at Yi Qiansi for a very long second before finally stepping foot out of the castle.

He would totally just forcefully take He Xinyan out of the castle and have her fly back to Country Z with him, but he knew that wasn’t possible.

Not only was the palace very heavily guarded, but Yi Qiansi was also not such a simple and stupid person. 

Yi Qiansi. . . The youngest leader of the KMK group. There was no way he was that simple to trick or fight.

Gu Yechen angrily clenched his fists together before he walked away with his people behind him. They left the Wei Jing palace and entered the plane they had used to get here.

Gu Yechen sat down and got ready to leave Country X and return home.

He was furious that he couldn’t find a way to get He Xinyan out this time, and he had to hurry up. He couldn’t have her be in there for any longer.

The airplane took off and they were on the plane ride back to Country X again.

On the plane, Gu Yechen closed his eyes to prevent himself from slamming something or. . . someone from fury.

However, as he closed his eyes and the darkness surrounded him, memories slowly began to surface back into his mind.

Yi Qiansi. . .

— 17 years ago

Gu Yechen arrived at the best private school in Country Z. He was wearing the school uniform with his black backpack on his back.

His dark black eyes coldly stared in front of him as he walked slowly towards the school gate, where two guards were standing.

Although his face was slightly chubby because of his young age, the coldness in his expression was not something fit for his age.

He entered the school gate and continued to walk, attracting looks from other boys and girls and even teachers as he walked by.

Suddenly, he felt a tap on his shoulder and he turned around a little annoyed, but the annoyance disappeared when he saw who it was.

”Yechen!” The other little boy called as he brushed his fingers through his silver hair. 

Gu Yechen smiled softly, “Come on, Qiansi. Let’s go to class.”

Yi Qiansi nodded and the two of them walked into the classroom, where other kids were seated already and the teacher was waiting at the front of the room.

”Yechen! Qiansi! Good morning.”

Gu Yechen nodded his head slightly as a sign of acknowledgement and Yi Qiansi replied back, “Good morning, Mrs. Li!”

The two of them sat down next to each other in their chairs and began playing games as they waited for class to start.

However, even after class had started, they continued to play. The teacher didn’t care because she couldn’t do anything about it anyway and the two of them were always number 1 and 2 in the entire school during tests.

”I heard there is a bird nest in the tree at the back of the school and there are bird eggs inside. Let’s go steal one,” Yi Qiansi suggested, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

Although Yi Qiansi was a smart and good kid in school that always respected the teachers, they all knew that he was always up to no good.

He always found ways to get himself out of trouble though by making the teachers forgive him. 

Gu Yechen thought for a few seconds before slowly nodding his head, “Sure.”

Yi Qiansi smiled excitedly and clapped his hands together as they started another round of the game they were playing.

After meeting on the first day of school, the two of them had become best friends. Both of them were from prestigious families, Gu Yechen from the most powerful family in the entire country.

Maybe it was because their two personalities attracted each other, but they quickly became close friends and stuck together during school.

Gu Yechen’s parents didn’t really approve of his friendship with Yi Qiansi since his parent’s business wasn’t very on the right track, but he didn’t care.

After school, the two of them walked to the back of the school and looked up at the gigantic tree. 

Gu Yechen put his backpack onto the ground and looked up. 

”Do you see it?” Yi Qiansi asked, looking up slightly confusedly.

”I don’t.” Gu Yechen walked closer to the tree and put one leg up on the trunk.

”What are you doing?”

Gu Yechen reached up for the lowest branch since he was still short even though he was the tallest in his grade, “I’m going to climb the tree and look for the nest.”

Yi Qiansi shrugged and watched as Gu Yechen climbed up one branch at a time. He was several feet off the ground already but the nest was still not in sight.

”I don’t see it. Are you sure there is a nest here?”

Yi Qiansi’s eyes narrowed, “Did Yu Lingxi lie to me?! How dare he?! Let’s go beat him up tomorrow!”

Gu Yechen climbed up a little further and he lifted his head up above a branch on top. Suddenly, something came into view.

”Qiansi! I see it! There is a nest up here!”

Yi Qiansi gasped, “Really?! I’m coming up!”

”Wait!” Gu Yechen looked down, “I don’t think we should both be up here at the same time.”

Yi Qiansi shrugged and continued to climb. Gu Yechen knit his eyebrows together and didn’t say anything.

Yi Qiansi climbed up but he had to stop below Gu Yechen because he was up there, “Take an egg down so I can look at it.”

Gu Yechen frowned, “I don’t think that’s a good idea. How about I get down and then you can climb up and look for yourself?”

Yi Qiansi knit his eyebrows together, “Don’t worry! Just take an egg! Just one!”

Gu Yechen looked around and didn’t see the mother or father bird. However, he still didn’t feel good about stealing an egg from the nest.

After several seconds, Gu Yechen finally reached up for an egg because Yi Qiansi was swinging the branches by now.

However, before his hand could touch the egg, there was a loud caulking sound as a bird jumped down from nowhere, his large wings flapping up and down.

”Ah!” Yi Qiansi screamed hearing the noise as he immediately jumped down. He was close to the ground so he was able to jump down without a scratch.

However, not only was Gu Yechen closer to the bird, he was also further away from the ground. The bird’s claws scratched his arm and he lost hold of the branch.

He fell down straight for the ground. Yi Qiansi didn’t know what to do and he watched as Gu Yechen dropped from the tree, landing onto his back.

”Yechen!” Yi Qiansi looked around anxiously and ran to find a teacher.

Half an hour later, Gu Yechen was riding on an ambulance to the hospital. He had lost consciousness, but he could still hear the beeping sound of the truck as it rushed to the hospital.

The next time he woke up was a day later, and there was a cast wrapped around his arm and neck. 

Sitting next to his bed was Gu Hanyu and Xu Mengya, each with different expressions. Xu Mengya’s eyes were red and it was obvious she was crying, and Gu Hanyu had an angry expression on his face.

Before Gu Yechen could speak, Gu Hanyu did before him.

”Your friend. . .” he said, emphasizing the word friend, “Yi Qiansi. I kicked him out of the school.”

Gu Yechen’s eyes widened in surprise, “It wasn’t him! He didn’t cause me to fall off the tree. . . It was I who wanted to see the bird nest.”

He licked his lips as he decided to cover up for Yi Qiansi.

However, Gu Hanyu shook his head and the furious expression on his face worsened, “You don’t have to help him. He is too much of a bad influence on you. I heard from the teachers that you don’t focus in class anymore and you even bully other kids with him. I cannot let you hang out or even go to the same school as kids like him.”

Gu Yechen pressed his lips together and didn’t say anything. 

A few seconds passed before Gu Hanyu stood up, “You rest. Me and your mom are going to go home and we will come bring you dinner later today.”

Then, Gu Hanyu left, obviously still mad at his son for making such stupid decisions, pulling Xu Mengya away with him.

The door closed and Gu Yechen sighed, obviously knowing that whatever he did now was too late.

— IMPORTANT:

I have a question for everyone. So I am at the point where I am about to start the third and most likely final plot arc, or conflict. However, I’m not sure if you guys would still want to continue to read it. This final conflict isn’t exactly between our main leads and there won’t be any separation or memory loss. If I include it, it may add another 10-30 chapters?

So, I want to take a poll. Please let me know in the comments whether you would continue reading or if you would like for me to write the final conflict. Thank you very much!
