In the past, Qiao Nuan had thought that all children were mischievous little devils. She did not expect to see a polite little angel today, and she immediately fell in love.
She smiled as she picked Gu An up and weighed him. “So, my eyes didn’t deceive me. You’re much lighter than you were two days ago. Were you scared and didn’t eat properly?”
Gu An, who was suddenly picked up by someone, was stunned. He had rarely been hugged so intimately in his memory, but he did not reject Qiao Nuan’s intimate touch at all.
Deep down, Gu An longed for his mother. Although Qiao Nuan was not gentle, she made Gu An feel like she was his mother.
Gu An did not react for a moment, so Qiao Ning raised his hand to answer, “Mom, I took Gu An’s pulse just now. He’s a little weak and needs some nourishment!”
Qiao Nuan glared at Qiao Ning. “Stop showing off your medical knowledge. What kind of pulse would a little child take?”
Qiao Ning pouted unwillingly.
Gu An was very loyal and spoke up for Qiao Ning, “Ma’am, Qiao Ning is excellent. He can treat patients.”
Also loyal, Qiao Ning said, “Mom, Gu An is very good as well. He made a lot of money by buying stocks!”
“Okay, okay…” Qiao Nuan rubbed the heads of the two children helplessly. “You two really hit it off. You’re even starting to flatter each other.”
Qiao Nuan did not take Qiao Ning’s words to heart. In her eyes, stocks were all metaphysics. Perhaps Gu An was lucky enough to earn some money through stocks, so nothing was to care about.
That was why Qiao Nuan did not think that this child who had hit it off with her son was an absolute genius.
Qiao Nuan had only treated Gu An as a new friend of Qiao Ning’s. She took the two children to the children’s lounge area of the hotel and watched them play in the foam ball pool.
But what Qiao Nuan did not know was that Gu An’s father, Gu Cheng, was different from her. Gu Cheng never thought Qiao Ning was an ordinary child, so he spent a lot investigating Qiao Nuan and Qiao Ning.
Qiao Nuan’s identity could be easily found, information regarding her identity was quickly placed in front of Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng looked at the photo of Qiao Nuan five years ago that was so fat that her facial features were unrecognizable. Compared to Qiao Nuan, who now had bright facial features and a good figure, he could not tell that they were the same person.
Temporarily putting aside the fact that Qiao Nuan’s figure and appearance had undergone such a drastic change, Gu Cheng focused on the information about Qiao Nuan giving birth five years ago.
When Qiao Nuan had given birth, her father had sent her to the hospital in the city next door. At that time, there was a rare storm in the city next door, affecting the entire city’s power grid. With an unstable power supply at the hospital, and according to the information, Qiao Nuan’s child only survived after several days of emergency treatment.
Among the information, what Gu Cheng was most concerned about was that Qiao Nuan’s child was born in the same hospital as his son, Gu An, and was also the same attending doctor as the woman who had given birth to Gu An. This caused Gu Cheng to make a connection between the two.
Gu Cheng recalled the scene five years ago when he suddenly learned that he had a son.
At that time, Gu Cheng had just entered the family business and was hounded by his second uncle and youngest uncle. At that time, a woman holding a child made an appearance in the media.
“Gu Cheng is an irresponsible scumbag. He pretended to be an ordinary person to deceive my feelings and left without saying goodbye after getting pregnant. I always thought that he had his own difficulties. It was not until I saw Gu Cheng’s figure in the official news of the Gu Financial Group that I realized that I had been deceived…”
At that time, that woman had used her status as a single mother to gain the sympathy of many people. At the same time, she had also caused a huge dent in Gu Cheng’s public reputation.
Gu Cheng had no choice but to respond, “I don’t have any feelings for that woman. I admit that I had a one-night stand. I need to confirm whether the child is mine through the paternity test. If it is my child, I will take on the responsibility of being the father.”
Alas, the results of the paternity test showed that Gu An was indeed Gu Cheng’s son. Thus, Gu Cheng became the father of a child without any preparation. However, the woman who had wanted to marry into the Gu family through the child failed to have her wishes fulfilled.
Because of the turmoil five years ago, Gu Cheng’s development in the Gu Financial Group was restricted. However, in these five years, Gu Cheng had achieved everything he wanted through hard work.
Although Gu An’s appearance had caused trouble, he truly loved his son very much. Because of this, he would not allow his blood to wander outside.
If Qiao Ning was really related to him by blood, then no matter how Qiao Nuan got that child, he would try his best to bring Qiao Ning back to his side.
Although he had only met Qiao Nuan a few times, he knew her character very well, so he did not plan to provoke a lioness with a cub.
So, he found another way to meet Qiao Nuan’s father, Qiao Lin.
“Mr. Qiao, tell me about your eldest daughter and her child,” he asked directly. “I want to know if there were any accidents on the day Miss Qiao gave birth..”
