July was fading away, and August was sweltering. Gu Chu had been working for over a month. Ever since the news broke that she was Liang Ru's aunt, Liang Ru no longer dared to openly target her. At the end of her internship, she performed exceptionally well and was promoted by the Minister of the Municipal Organization Department to become the Minister's secretary.

That day, Gu Chu received a call from Rong Shi, who told her that several test results were in.

Qiu Chuji and Sheng Jinfeng are related by blood, but not as biological children; they are relatives. Sheng Jinfeng and He Shiran are not related by blood. Qiu Jinlong and He Shiran are mother and son, but Qiu Chuji is not related by blood.

Gu Chu was shocked when Rong Shi told her that she and Qiu Chuji were not related by blood.

Gu Chu had mixed feelings.

If Sheng Jinfeng and Qiu Jinlong aren't actually twins, then where did the other twins in the Sheng family go? Or was it that Sheng Shuxian gave birth to twins instead of twins?

If she and Su Wan are Sheng Shuxian's daughters, then why aren't they Qiu Chuji's daughters?

Or is it that the twins Sheng Shuxian gave birth to have died?

In short, the results of the paternity test made Gu Chu realize that there was a shocking secret about the Sheng family hidden inside, and this secret was very likely related to Sheng Shuxian's disappearance.

Just then, Rong Shi sent Gu Chu a photo, a picture of Qiu Chuji and Sheng Shuxian when they were young.

After seeing the photo, Gu Chu became even more certain that she was a child of the Sheng family, because her face shape and mouth looked very similar to Sheng Shuxian's, but her eyes and nose did not resemble Qiu Chuji's.

Therefore, the most likely scenario is that she and Su Wan were born to Sheng Shuxian and another man.

Gu Chu made a bold assumption:

The eldest daughter of the Sheng family became pregnant out of wedlock, so she had to find someone to take her in. She found her college classmate Qiu Chuji, a man from the countryside, and made him her live-in son-in-law.

Qiu Chuji married into the Sheng family for wealth and status, becoming a "fall guy" (someone who takes over a family business). However, after the child was born, Qiu Chuji regretted it. He took Sheng Shuxian and Su Wan away and abandoned them, and then took his brother's or sister's daughter.

If that's the case, how do you explain the mother-son relationship between Qiu Jinlong and He Shiran? How could Qiu Chuji willingly raise someone else's son?

Let's make another bold assumption:

Qiu Chuji and He Shiran were originally lovers. Qiu Chuji abandoned He Shiran for wealth and status. In order to get revenge on Qiu Chuji, He Shiran became pregnant with another man's child and then lied that it was Qiu Chuji's child. In order for his own child to enjoy wealth and status, Qiu Chuji used a trick to replace Sheng Shuxian and Su Wan after Sheng Shuxian gave birth.

Therefore, Qiu Chuji always believed that Qiu Jinlong was his and He Shiran's son, and only in this way would he be willing to raise the two children.

Gu Chuyue felt he was getting closer to the truth. It would be very interesting if Qiu Chuji knew that Qiu Jinlong was not his child.

Thinking about all this, Gu Chu called Rong Shi and told him all her guesses.

Rong Shi thought the same way as her, suggesting that Qiu Chuji know that Qiu Jinlong was not his child. This way, Qiu Chuji would definitely get angry and interrogate He Shiran, and they would have a chance to find out what really happened.

"Chu Chu, don't worry, I'll take care of everything. No matter what your identity is, you're Rong Shi's woman," Rong Shi said earnestly and affectionately.

Gu Chu's eyes were a little blurry: "Yes, Rong Shi, I miss you!"

Rong Shi's deep voice rang out: "I miss you too!"

Gu Chu added, "I've already adjusted my vacation schedule. Wanwan's due date is in two weeks, and I'll go visit her for a few days then. That'll be the time we can meet."

Thinking of how Gu Chu had been bullied and cried by him, Rong Shi's voice was a little hoarse: "I can't wait any longer."

Gu Chu smiled shyly, "Look forward to it!"

"expect."

·········

Three days later, in the afternoon, Gu Chu received a call from Rong Shi.

"Chu Chu, go home early after get off work," Rong Shi said.

Gu Chu: "Hmm, is there any news about that matter?"

"I have something to do, I'll hang up now."

Rong Shi hung up the phone, and Gu Chu looked puzzled.

That's it?

Did you call just to tell her to come home early?

At this moment, Rong Shi was busy in the kitchen of Lijing Apartment. He squeezed out two and a half days to come to City A to tell Gu Chu the results of the investigation. He was worried that Gu Chu couldn't handle it, so he came to her side.

When Gu Chu returned home, she heard noises coming from the kitchen as soon as she opened the door. Her first thought was: Has a thief broken into the house?

Just as she was about to pick up her phone to call the police, a tall, familiar voice came out of the kitchen carrying dishes.

"Rong Shi!" Gu Chu exclaimed in surprise.

Rong Shi put down the dishes and smiled at her, "You're back. Go wash your hands and get ready to eat."

Gu Chu changed her clothes and ran towards Rong Shi: "When did you arrive?"

Rong Shi immediately went to greet him: "I've been here for two hours. You gave me the key last time, and I was thinking of giving you a surprise."

The two embraced, and Gu Chu looked up at the handsome face she had been longing for, feeling a little unreal.

Not long ago she was thinking about this man, but now he's right beside her.

"Hmm, you surprised me." Gu Chu said, burying her head in Rong Shi's chest, feeling his strong heartbeat and familiar body temperature.

It seemed that only in this way could she realize that what she was seeing was not a dream, but real, and that the person she longed for was right in front of her.

Rong Shi gently stroked her cheek, his voice low and husky: "You've lost weight again after a month apart."

Gu Chu closed her eyes and carefully felt Rong Shi's presence: "Rong Shi, I miss you so much."
