Upon hearing Aunt Zhang's voice, Gu Aiguo hurriedly came out of the kitchen.

As soon as he came out, he saw Niu Aifang holding a cloth over her head. He asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Niu Aifang said aggrievedly, "I was at home taking care of your precious grandson today, and I don't know what happened, but your stool hit me." Su Li felt nauseous listening to the middle-aged woman's delicate voice.

It seems her real intention wasn't what she claimed to be doing; she said she was looking after the children, but she was actually after that old geezer, Gu Aiguo.

Hearing her words, Gu Aiguo asked incredulously, "You were hit by my stool? Did you accidentally bump into it and fall?"

Niu Aifang said, "No, it was your stool that chased me and hit me. Look at my head, I even suspect I have a concussion. If I hadn't run fast today, I would have been killed by your stool."

Gu Aiguo wondered if he had misheard; "You mean, my stool chased you and hit you?"

Niu Aifang nodded, and Gu Aiguo suspected that this person was probably a little mentally unstable.

How could his stool possibly chase someone?

Gu Aiguo looked at Aunt Zhang and pointed to her daughter's head.

"Auntie, there's something wrong with her. If that's the case, you should come and see the child yourself! Otherwise, I'm a little worried."

Aunt Zhang glared at her daughter before quickly explaining, "She was just joking. Today, while she was watching the child, she tripped over a stool and fell, hitting her head. We came today to... ask about the medical expenses..."

Thinking about Niu Aifang's efforts during this time, Gu Aiguo nodded and said, "Take her to the hospital, and I'll pay for the medical expenses."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang grinned and said, "That's great! I'll take her to the hospital right now and try my best not to delay her from coming to see the child tomorrow."

Gu Aiguo nodded; "Then you can go!"

Seeing that they had left, Su Li also walked outside.

After leaving the residential compound, she found a secluded spot and emerged from her spatial dimension; it was almost dusk.

When Su Li arrived at the guard post, Chen Shujing was still standing there dumbfounded.

When she saw her, Chen Shujing was at a loss. It wasn't that she didn't want to tell Su Li about the child during this time.

Instead, seeing her running around all day looking for Huanian, she felt sorry for her and thought she could talk to Gu Aiguo about it herself.

She waited here all afternoon, and finally saw Gu Aiguo. She pulled him and made him bring the child out.

Gu Aiguo told her impatiently to wait there.

As a result, she had been waiting for half an hour after Gu Aiguo went in, but hadn't seen a single person.

"Ah Li, you... what brings you here?"

"Come pick up the child."

Despite her concise and clear words, Chen Shujing's face turned somewhat pale; she knew Su Li was angry.

"Ah Li, this is my fault..."

Before Chen Shujing could finish speaking, Su Li interrupted her, "Auntie, let's talk later. I'll go say a few words to the gatekeeper first."

Chen Shujing nodded somewhat blankly. For some reason, she felt that Su Li was unusually cold today.

Su Li walked towards the gate and said directly, "We need to go in and find Gu Aiguo. My child is at his house."

The gatekeeper hesitated, saying, "But Comrade Gu specifically instructed that you cannot be let in."

Su Li smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll go report it to the police first. My son has been taken away, and I can't even get him back now. I want to see if there's any injustice in Beijing."

As she spoke, Su Li turned to leave, and of course, she meant more than just saying it.

If she can't get through this door, she's really going to call the police.

The baby was born after she carried him for ten months, even if he was nominally related to Gu Aiguo by blood.

But now that she's not married to Gu Huanian, there's no way he'd leave the child without a clear explanation.

Seeing that Su Li's face was cold and her words didn't seem like she was threatening anyone, the gatekeeper quickly advised, "Comrade, don't get agitated. I'll go and pass on your message right now. Please wait here for a moment."

"If I don't get a result within ten minutes, I'll go to the police station to demand an explanation. If that doesn't work, I'll go to the military base and have a serious talk about whether soldiers can just snatch other people's children."

The gatekeeper nodded and quickly ran to Gu Aiguo's house, where the gate was open.

He was sitting in the main room, picking out noodles to eat.

When he saw the gatekeeper, he thought Chen Shujing was causing trouble outside again, so he said directly, "Tell that woman not to come looking for me unless she agrees to divorce. If she wants her child back, tell her not to even think about it."

The gatekeeper wiped the sweat from his brow. What a mess! It was their family matter, and he, a guard on duty, had no desire to get involved.

"No, this time it's Battalion Commander Gu's ex-girlfriend. She said if you don't give her the child, she's going to report it to the police. Do you want to come out and take a look?"

Gu Aiguo was surprised that it was Su Li who came this time, and his face turned cold and stern.

Angrily, she slammed the noodle soup bowl onto the table with a loud "bang".

Gu Aiguo said angrily, "Go and let them in. I want to see what this ignorant woman can say."

Upon hearing this, the gatekeeper quickly ran out.

Su Li came in again, her mood slightly calmer.

Chen Shujing would glance at Su Li every now and then, but she just strode on without saying a word.

She wanted to explain something, but the two of them were already outside the courtyard.
