Translator: ShinoJ
Cheng Qi’s gaze became colder and colder. He checked Gu Manxi’s clothes from top to bottom. Fortunately, Cheng Qi came on time. Gu Manxi still had her clothes on, so the worst had not happened yet.
Cheng Qi put Gu Manxi back on the bed and covered her with the blanket.
He turned around and kicked Director Li fiercely again.
Cheng Qi said in a low voice, “You deserve to die.”
Director Li howled and felt his leg break. His face was covered in sweat from the pain and the drunkenness in his head dissipated a little. Only then did he see Cheng Qi’s face clearly.
.
Director Li was stunned for a moment and kept the profanity in his heart. This was the young master of the Cheng family. He couldn’t afford to offend him for the time being. His eyes rolled around and he endured the pain to explain himself. “Young Master Cheng, this is my fiancée. Please don’t misunderstand...”
“Mommy, Chuchu has finally found you!” Gu Chu ran in limping a little. She saw Gu Manxi, who was still fully dressed, on the bed. She then glanced at Director Li, who was on the ground. Gu Chu finally let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
Gu Chu stretched out her two small arms, looking aggrieved as she wanted to hug her. “Mommy, Chuchu is hungry.”
Her adorable voice was like a beam of gentle sunlight, instantly dispelling the darkness in Gu Manxi’s gloomy world.
Gu Chu was her hope.
Gu Manxi quickly wiped away her tears and got off the bed to hug Gu Chu. She sobbed, “Chuchu, be good. Mommy will bring Chuchu to eat later.”
“Why is Mommy crying?” Gu Chu clumsily wiped away Gu Manxi’s tears with her chubby hands. “Mommy, are you hungry? I’ll give the milk cake to Mommy to eat later. Mommy, don’t cry.”
Gu Chu’s heart was a mess. She felt sorry for Gu Manxi.
In her previous life, Gu Chu was an orphan. She had no parents. When she first came to this world, she had become a child. Initially, she didn’t like any of this and even wanted to sneak away. Gu Manxi was weak, kind, and sweet. She was tortured miserably in the novel, but she was still a good mother.
Gradually, Gu Chu started to treat her as her own mother.
Director Li, who was lying on the ground, widened his eyes in disbelief. “You actually have a child?”
What did Tang Chunxiu tell him? She said that her eldest daughter, who was pure and innocent, had been raised abroad since she was young and did not know the affairs of the world!
Director Li felt that he had been deceived.
Gu Manxi hugged Chu Chu and ignored Director Li. She turned around and thanked Cheng Qi gently. “Thank you. I will repay you when I have the chance.”
Cheng Qi raised his eyebrows. He felt that her tone was a little strange. Cheng Qi glanced at Gu Manxi from head to toe and asked tentatively, “Don’t you remember me...”
Before he could finish his sentence, the sound of continuous footsteps came from outside the door. Tang Chunxiu’s angry and angry voice sounded, “Yan, I already said that Manxi was greedy for money and deliberately hooked up with Director Li! She came from a remote village. When she saw a rich man and tried to climb the social, do you think I could stop her?”
“Mom, take me to Manxi.”
“You’re so stubborn! You and Manshi have been brother and sister for 18 years, and yet you only care about Gu Manxi?!” Tang Chunxiu’s tone was quite dissatisfied.
Zhao Yan was anxious. The Empire Hotel was famous for being luxurious and high-end. The guests who could stay in the hotel were either rich or noble. Therefore, the hotel was very good at keeping secrets and would not easily reveal the information of the guests.
Even Zhao Yan, who could already be considered as someone with power and influence, could not get Gu Manxi’s room number from the lobby manager.
Fortunately, Zhao Yan met Tang Chunxiu.
Tang Chunxiu was surrounded by more than ten relatives. In name, Tang Chunxiu wanted to bring her relatives to meet her eldest daughter, Manxi. But in fact, she wanted to catch her and expose her relationship with Director Li.
