Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Ye Qian’s Past Life

This was the first time Gu Yi heard Ye Qian talk about her thoughts on the future.

This also made Gu Yi determined that in this life, he would never let Ye Qian and her past life’s husband get together.

In her past life, Ye Qian went out to work and met her future husband, Wu Liang.

He was from a neighboring county, living in the village, with an average family background.

After Ye Qian got married, she wanted to go out to work and earn money again, but Wu Liang was resolutely against it.

Ye Qian said she wouldn’t go far, just in the county, but he still disagreed. After they got married, life was tough, and they often had heated arguments over trivial life issues.

When Ye Qian was five months pregnant, the two had another argument, and during the tussle, Wu Liang pushed Ye Qian down, causing her to lose the child she was carrying.

Because she was fundamentally injured, the doctor told Ye Qian she could never conceive again.

By the time the Ye Family received the news, it was several days later. Ever since Ye’s mother heard the news, she had been crying at home. Ye Hao also rushed back from the army and went with Ye Fu and Gu Yi to bring Ye Qian home.

When they saw Ye Qian, she was sitting on the bed with disheveled hair, her face sallow, lips pale, staring blankly into space, neither moving nor speaking.

They called her several times, and it was as if Ye Qian woke up from a dream. She slowly turned her head to look at them, tears continuously flowing from her eyes, but she remained silent.

Seeing Ye Qian like this, Ye Hao and Ye Fu were heartbroken. Ye Hao kicked Wu Liang, who had just entered, to the ground, and Ye Fu went up to slap him.

Ye Qian stared blankly at them fighting, with tears flowing endlessly.

"Qianqian, Dad and your brother are here to take you home. We won’t stay here anymore, be good."

Looking at Ye Qian in front of her, Gu Yi couldn’t help but go forward to hug her and cried out loud.

"Dad, I want to go home."

The first thing Ye Qian said was this.

Hearing Ye Qian’s voice, Ye Fu quickly stood in front of her.

"Okay, okay, Qianqian, we’ll go home."

Ye Fu was so choked up that he couldn’t finish his sentence.

Ye Qian was carried on Ye Hao’s back as they left, and the Wu Family members wanted to stop them, but intimidated by Ye Hao’s fierceness earlier, they only dared curse from a distance, not daring to step forward.

"Brother, call Wu Liang to come with us."

Ye Qian weakly yet resolutely said from Ye Hao’s back.

"Qianqian, why call that beast along?"

Ye Fu thought Ye Qian didn’t want to separate from Wu Liang.

"We’ll pass by the county on the way, let’s go to the civil affairs bureau and get the divorce done."

Ye Qian knew they misunderstood and quickly explained.

"Qianqian, it’s not urgent right now. Once you’re well, we’ll go find that beast."

Ye Fu was worried Ye Qian’s body wouldn’t hold up.

After all, the divorce was certain. Even if Ye Qian wanted to stay with Wu Liang, their family would still separate them.

"Dad, let’s listen to Qianqian, the sooner the better. I also agree to sever ties with the Wu Family today."

At this time, Gu Yi stood up to reassure Ye Fu.

Ye Hao glanced at Gu Yiyi and called for Wu Liang to follow.

The group went to the civil affairs bureau and processed the divorce for Ye Qian.

Wu Liang tried to talk to Ye Qian all along, but even after the divorce certificate was in hand, he hadn’t said a word.

After the divorce, Ye Qian never remarried and continued to live with Gu Yi and the others.

Although she seemed to have moved on from that marriage, her family knew she was still immersed in the pain it caused.

Later, several men with good conditions expressed their interest in her, but she firmly rejected them each time, not giving others hope, nor herself.

"Qianqian, we’re not in a hurry. After all, you’re still young, we can take our time looking."

Looking at the young and vibrant Ye Qian in front of her, Gu Yi was truly grateful that the heavens gave her another chance at life. Some tragedies, she vowed, would never happen again, no matter how hard she had to try.

"Mm, thank you, sister-in-law. I want to learn a craft from you first; for now, I don’t want to think too much about other things."

Ye Qian was filled with hope for the future, and looking at her child-like demeanor, Gu Yi couldn’t help but marvel again at the mysterious ways life unfolded.

The next day, Gu Yi and Ye Qian got up early, and Ye Hao brought them buns to eat on the road. After putting them on the bus, he went back to train.

When Gu Yi and Ye Qian arrived at the department store, Li Yitian was already waiting for them at the entrance.

He led them directly to the store.

It was only eight o’clock, and the department store opened at nine. Li Yitian told them that in the morning, there weren’t many people in the mall, so Gu Yi and the others had plenty of time to set up the store.

As soon as Gu Yi entered, she saw five mannequins she had designed the day before in the store.

She instructed Li Yitian to place these mannequins in her designated spots.

Since there were no glass windows yet, everything had to be displayed inside the store.

Gu Yi placed two figures near the entrance, one by the mirror, and another two by the wall next to the cash register.

These spots were where customers could easily see and linger longer.

A bench was placed between the two mannequins at the entrance. One was dressed in a dress, the other in a pencil skirt, with a bag and a pair of shoes on the bench, both matching the outfits.

By the mirror, she paired a short-sleeve top with cropped pants.

On either side of the cash registers, there were two sets of long-sleeve tops with pants. Every figure had a scarf tied around their neck, one over the shirt, the other under, to balance the colors.

Gu Yi asked the staff to help arrange the clothes by color, from light to dark, from thin to thick. The folded pants were also unfolded and hung on hangers.

She coordinated several sets to hang in prominent areas on the walls.

By the time they finished, it was already eleven o’clock.

Gu Yi reviewed the overall style of the store. Although it couldn’t compare with modern retail outlets, it looked much better than other stores at the time.

Overall, she was satisfied. Now it was up to the customers to see if they would accept it.

At noon, Li Yitian took Gu Yi and Ye Qian out for lunch. Eager to see the store’s performance, they quickly ate and returned to wait.

After one o’clock, foot traffic in the mall picked up. Perhaps it was the weekend, but there were more people than usual.

Nearly every woman who walked past the shop stopped to look inside, and many directly purchased the outfits Gu Yi had put together.

In the afternoon, all three store assistants were busy running around.

Li Yitian couldn’t have been happier. His initial intention with this store was merely to avoid doing what his family had planned for him.

He didn’t understand the market or delve into consumer needs deeply, so business had been average. But the scene that afternoon suddenly ignited his passion. He wanted to work hard and make his parents see him in a different light.

Gu Yi was also pleased with the results. Although she couldn’t design clothes, seeing others appreciate her styling made her happy and feel that her capabilities were recognized.
