Chapter 35

Gu Zimu let out a breath of turbid air, further deepening his determination to send He Shouxin away when he and He Youran got married.

However, showing his annoyance towards He Shouxin now was not conducive for him to pursue He Youran.

He suppressed his annoyance and squatted down to look at He Shouxin in the eye, forcing out a loving smile.

“You’re He Shouxin, right? That’s a good name.”

“Uncle, you don’t want to talk to me, right? Your smile is so ugly,” He Shouxin said innocently.

“…”A vein popped out on Gu Zimu’s forehead.

Why is this damn kid so unlikable? !

As expected, his patience was limited since He Shouxin wasn’t his son.

He adjusted his emotions and tried to make his smile look better.

“No, uncle likes you very much.”

“Then, are you going to be my stepfather?” He Shouxin asked innocently again.

“…”A vein popped up on Gu Zimu’s forehead.

Was it so hard to say that he was going to be his father? Why did he have to add the word “Stepfather”?

The word “Stepfather” reminded Gu Zimu of the mistakes He Youran had made and reminded him that the woman he had taken a fancy to had been slept by another man!

The intense frustration made it difficult for him to maintain his expression. Seeing that he was on the verge of going berserk, He Youran quickly pulled He Shouxin behind her and tapped He Shouxin’s forehead with her finger.

He Shouxin touched his forehead that had been poked red, feeling wronged. He silently complained to He Youran with his eyes.

[ He Xiaoran, I don’t like this man! ]

[ I know, I don’t like him either. ]

The mother and son exchanged a look. He Youran coughed and decided to end this quickly.

“Gu Zimu, our engagement has been dissolved. I don’t like you either. Please don’t pester me in the future.”

“If you follow Lu Qingzhuo, what can he give you?”

Gu Zimu suddenly asked.

He Youran? ? ?

She could not keep up with this Gu Guy’s brain.

Why was he bringing up Lu Qingzhuo again?

“Can Lu Qingzhuo accept someone else’s child?” After Gu Zimu finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something and sneered. “Oh, he should be able to accept it. After all, he has a problem there. He won’t have a chance to have a child of his own in this lifetime.”

He Youran frowned.

She didn’t like Lu Qingzhuo, but she disliked Gu Zimu’s attitude even more.

“You can get money by following him now, but the He family of imperial capital is eyeing the Lu family covetously. Just Lu Qingzhuo alone won’t be able to last long. In ten, no, five, or maybe even three years, the Lu family will completely decline!”

Gu Zimu’s expression was crazy, and his eyes were filled with jealousy.

“Also, I heard that Lu Qingzhuo has a fiancée, right? The marriage between the Lu and He families has become a norm. Even though He Yaoxing, who wants to marry Lu Qingzhuo, was adopted, she received an elite education since she was young. She’s also a big star. What can you compare with her?”

He Shouxin’s words of ‘stepfather’ touched Gu Zimu’s sore spot.

A five-year-old child already had his own thoughts. He did not have the patience to coax other people’s children. Right now, he only wanted He Youran to wake up. She would not have a future with Lu Qingzhuo!

Gu Zimu was agitated. Her voice was a little loud and gradually caused a commotion in the hotel.

He Youran was extremely annoyed. She was not afraid of rumors, but she was afraid of trouble.

Moreover, He Shouxin was also there.

She could not care about what others thought, but she cared about what others thought of He Shouxin.

“Have you said enough?”

He Youran’s eyes were cold and her words were like ice shards.

“Because I gave birth to a child for the Lu family..”
