Five years ago, by a twist of fate, she gave herself to a certain man. She lost her innocence and her identity, the position of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family was usurped, and overnight, s...
Gu Tingchen looked solemn, he felt as if he was listening to a suspense novel.
"So, you suspect..." Gu Tingchen did not continue with the next words, worried that it would irritate Meng Xianchen.
But Meng Xianchen immediately understood what Gu Tingchen meant. He nodded vigorously and widened his eyes. His originally dark and shiny eyes were now filled with too much fatigue and red bloodshot.
"Yes, I suspect that he is not my father." Meng Xianchen said, biting his lips tightly and looking a little nervous.
This is indeed a very scary thing. The person closest to you has completely changed, and it seems like he has been switched.
"But based on the current strength of the Meng family, no one should play such a big game to plot against you, right? Are you mistaken?" Gu Tingchen knew that this was like stabbing a knife into Meng Xianchen's heart, but he couldn't care less.
Meng Xianchen shook his head helplessly, obviously unable to figure out the problem. He was very distressed.
"The only person I can think of who can help me now is you." Meng Xianchen suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Tingchen with pleading eyes. Obviously, he had high hopes for Gu Tingchen.
The topic just now was too heavy, and Gu Tingchen wanted to ease the situation, so he stood up and patted Meng Xianchen on the shoulder.
"You are under too much pressure now, which is not good for your health. You just came back. Have you arranged a place to stay?" Gu Tingchen deliberately talked about some lighter topics to divert Meng Xianchen's attention.
Meng Xianchen lowered his head and then shook his head.
"Stay at my house tonight. No, stay at my house from now on." Gu Tingchen said with a smile.
Mo Cheng was a little stunned when he heard what his boss said. Even his most valuable client, Gu Tingchen, never invited him to live in his house, with the exception of Meng Xianchen.
"Is this okay?" Meng Xianchen looked up awkwardly, trying to test whether Gu Tingchen was really inviting him.
Gu Tingchen stretched out his hand and gently pointed at Meng Xianchen: "I know you miss Jiang Ranran. You will be able to see her later, but if you still have improper thoughts about her, I promise to make you pack up and leave."
Meng Xianchen knew that Gu Tingchen was joking and shook his head desperately to indicate that he didn't dare.
"That's fine, come with me." Gu Tingchen patted Meng Xianchen's shoulder again.
"I asked you for this request, and you..." Meng Xianchen was still thinking about that matter.
Gu Tingchen interrupted Meng Xianchen directly, "Don't worry, I will help you, okay?"
Meng Xianchen wanted to say something more, but when he saw Gu Tingchen's determined eyes, he nodded and stopped talking.
Sitting in Gu Tingchen's car, Meng Xianchen was worried all the way.
It was not until he arrived at the Gu family that Meng Xianchen's expression eased slightly.
Gu Tingchen walked in with Meng Xianchen. As soon as he entered the door, he excitedly called out to Jiang Ranran: "Ranran! Look who I brought here?"
Hearing this, Meng Xianchen seemed a little embarrassed.
He is no longer the proud and fearless Meng Xianchen.
Jiang Ranran ran over with brisk steps, wanting to see who had come. When she saw it was Meng Xianchen, her eyes immediately showed a deep surprise.
"Meng Xianchen! Why are you here?!" Jiang Ranran ran over in surprise and joy, her eyes bright.
Meng Xianchen gave a distant smile and said, "I have something to ask Gu Tingchen for help."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Ranran asked curiously.
"Let's not talk about this for now. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Do you want to have a drink tonight?" Gu Tingchen stopped Jiang Ranran in time and gave her a look. She immediately understood and knew that it was not a good thing.
Jiang Ranran quickly stopped talking, changed the subject, and continued along the lines of Gu Tingchen's thoughts, "Okay, I'll ask the kitchen lady to prepare some delicious dishes, or I'll cook it myself!"
Meng Xianchen was not surprised when he heard this, but just smiled politely.
After a few seconds of silence, he looked up at Jiang Ranran tenderly, his expression slightly affectionate: "It seems that you are living a happy life. I am relieved."
In the past, Jiang Ranran would feel very uncomfortable when he spoke like this, but now she is completely calm.
"Thank you, I'm really happy."
"Come on, don't just stand there. My children haven't met you yet." Jiang Ranran said, pulling him to introduce them to the children one by one, and the atmosphere instantly became joyful.
After all, Jiang Ranran's children are so cute, how could Meng Xianchen not like them?
With the children gathered in a circle, Meng Xianchen seemed to forget the troubles in his heart for a short while.
At dinner time, delicious dishes were already placed on the table, and Gu Tingchen personally opened his treasured red wine and poured it for Meng Xianchen.
Meng Xianchen looked at the glass of wine and suddenly wanted to release his emotions. He picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp.
"This bottle of wine is not cheap. Don't drink it alone, or I'll feel bad." Gu Tingchen said jokingly, deliberately trying to anger Meng Xianchen.
Meng Xianchen drank some wine, his cheeks flushed slightly, and his attitude of speaking became more relaxed.
"Why didn't I realize you were so stingy before?" Meng Xianchen spoke in a somewhat impolite manner.
Gu Tingchen was slightly stunned, and stared at Meng Xianchen with some disdain: "Oh, are you trying to get close to me now? Be careful or I'll kick you out."
"Whatever. If you can bear to see me sleeping on the street, just kick me out." Meng Xianchen also poured a glass for Gu Tingchen.
Seeing how harmoniously they got along, Jiang Ranran was actually a little moved.
After a few drinks, Meng Xianchen's face had turned red. He put down his glass and said a little excitedly, "Gu Tingchen, I really don't know who to ask for help. Since the decline of the Meng family, no one is willing to help me."
"They are already very polite by not stepping on me." Meng Xianchen had a hard time saying anything and could only pour himself one glass of wine after another.
Gu Tingchen pressed down Meng Xianchen's glass and said, "Don't drink anymore. You've already had too much."
"Let me drink to my heart's content. I want to vomit out all the bitterness in my stomach." Meng Xianchen pushed Gu Tingchen away and said.
Gu Tingchen let go of her hand, but he was still trying to persuade her: "Drinking is for you to reminisce about the past with me, but you treat me like a tree hole."
Seeing Meng Xianchen's painful expression, Jiang Ranran also felt choked up. "Forget it, just let him talk. Maybe he'll feel better if he talks about it. He's going to get sick if he keeps it bottled up."
Meng Xianchen took a few deep breaths, and suddenly his eyes became extremely serious.
He said coldly, "I now suspect that my father is not my father. He has been replaced without my knowledge."
This sentence stunned Jiang Ranran and Gu Tingchen instantly. Is there such a bizarre and unbelievable thing?
