In this article we classify four dimensional gradient Ricci solitons (M, g, f) with half harmonic Weyl curvature and at most two distinct Ricci-eigenvalues at each point. Indeed, we showed that, in a neighborhood V of each point in some open dense subset of M, (V, g) is isometric to one of the following: (i) an Einstein manifold. (ii) a domain in the Riemannian product (ℝ², g₀) × (N, ${\tilde{g}}$), where g₀ is the flat metric on ℝ² and (N, ${\tilde{g}}$) is a two dimensional Riemannian manifold of constant curvature λ ≠ 0. (iii) a domain in ℝ × W with the warped product metric $ds^2+h(s)^2{\tilde{g}}$, where ${\tilde{g}}$ is a constant curved metric on a three dimensional manifold W.
