The man called to her again, his deep and profound eyes full of endless tenderness.
Gu Li’s heart unexpectedly skipped a beat. She shifted her gaze, somewhat afraid to meet his eyes, worried that he would see the deep affection she struggled to hide from him.
At this critical juncture, if Mo Shiting seized the opportunity to confess his feelings, maybe he could win Gu Li over. However, he instead asked—
“If you are really pregnant, can you come back to me?”
Even though he knew she wasn’t in love with him, he still selfishly wanted to have her. Even if it meant using the child as an excuse to bind her to him.
Along with the finality of his words, Gu Li felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured overhead, extinguishing her last shred of hope.
She should not have been entertaining such fantasies about him…
“Let’s take the test before making any judgments,” she murmured, forcing a smile.
Who said that being pregnant would inevitably force them together?
If she were really pregnant, she would run away with the baby and make sure he never found them.
Mo Shiting, oblivious to her tactical plotting, saw her consent as an opportunity. He was so excited that he immediately scooped her up into his arms.
Gu Li was taken by surprise by his sudden action and struggled to get down. He sternly warned her, “You’re possibly pregnant now, you should be careful.”
Gu Li was torn between tears and laughter.
She had heard of moms-to-be before, but a woman potentially pregnant? It was her first time hearing that.
“I have a three-year-old child sleeping at home. I can’t just go to the hospital with you,” she said, remembering that there was still a baby sleeping in the room.
Mo Shiting narrowed his eyes, his gaze probing, “A three-year-old child? Whose?”
“Mine!” Gu Li boldly lied.
Mo Shiting scoffed, “You think I’m stupid?”
“Aren’t you?”
“Sister Pear ”
A little boy rubbed his sleepy eyes at the bedroom doorway, calling out to Gu Li in a babyish voice.
Of course, in order to protect Murong Qian’s privacy, Murong Yun always referred to Gu Li and Murong Qian as sisters in front of others.
The two bickering in the hallway turned simultaneously at the sound of the child’s voice.
Gu Li’s claim of having a three-year-old baby at home was initially suspect to Mo Shiting. However, within seconds, there was the little boy standing in front of them.
“Hello, Uncle!”
Murong Yun, not a shy boy and quite outgoing, not only warmly greeted Mo Shiting but also said familiarly, “My name is Murong Yun, nice to meet you.” Murong Yun?
With the same surname as Murong?
Could it be Murong Qian’s brother?
He’s very handsome and adorable, and he’s very polite too.
At first glance, Mo Shiting took a liking to this cute and handsome little boy.
“Hello.”
He walked over to the little boy, squatted down to meet his gaze, and said, “You can call Gu Li sister, and you can call me brother.” To avoid distinction in generation gap.
Understanding what Mo Shiting was insinuating, Gu Li almost laughed out loud, “Are you sure you want him to call you brother? You’re so old. I think being called uncle suits you.”
Faced with her teasing, Mo Shiting stood up, leaned in close to her and whispered with a smile, “In that case, how about you call me uncle from now on?”
“Get lost!”
Worrying about leaving the little boy alone at home, the two decided to take him with them.
Lu Yang, who was waiting by the car, was almost shocked out of his glasses when he saw Mo Shiting coming down the stairs with the two.
Had he seen it wrong? Was the young madam accompanied by a child?
The child looked similar to the young madam. Could he be her illegitimate child?
Could the argument between the couple have been because the young master had discovered this secret and was unable to accept it, so they…
Lu Yang overthought, not even noticing Mo Shiting approaching until he was right there.
Mo Shiting shot him a cold glance, questioning, “Why the daze?”
“Ah, young master! Young madam!”
Lu Yang jolted back to reality, giving them a respectful bow.
Mo Shiting heard him dutifully call Gu Li, ‘young madam’, and it brought a hint of a smile to his lips.
Gu Li, on the other hand, smiled awkwardly, too embarrassed to respond.
After all, she and Mo Shiting had long since divorced and she was no longer any ‘young madam’.
“Hello, Uncle!”
The little boy greeted Lu Yang cheerfully, “My name is Murong Yun. I’m three years old. Nice to meet you.”
“Murong Yun? Hi, hi, hello there.”
Hearing the boy’s surname, Lu Yang immediately dismissed the idea that he was Gu Li’s illegitimate child, grinning widely.
Murong Yun gave the uncle, who was grinning like a buffoon, a sidelong glance, thinking, this uncle seems a little abnormal?
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Imperial City Hospital.
Mo Shiting accompanied Gu Li for the check-up, while Lu Yang waited outside with Murong Yun.
After taking a number, it was Gu Li’s turn to have blood drawn.
Seizing the opportunity, Mo Shiting sent a message to Lu Yang, instructing him to take Murong Yun to Lu Cong’s home.
Though perplexed by the young master’s orders, Lu Yang did as he was told..
