And... a child? When did he and Li Xia have a child?
Could it be that this child...
The more Gu Weicheng thought about it, the heavier his heart became.
Hu Songlin was stunned because he was too sad. He and Gu Weicheng had been partners for many years, and Gu Weicheng had a child without telling him!
Do you still consider him as your brother? ! !
"Okay, Brigade Commander, I understand." Gu Weicheng said.
Coming out of the brigade commander's office, Hu Songlin reached out and hooked his arm around Gu Weicheng's neck, saying unhappily:
"Gu Weicheng, you are such a good kid. You didn't even tell me that you had a child. Do you still consider me as your brother? If I knew my sister-in-law had a child, wouldn't I have to prepare a gift for the child? At least I should let the child recognize me as the godfather?"
Gu Weicheng was in no mood to play around with him, and said coldly, "I just heard the news, too."
Hu Songlin was stunned again: "No, you are..."
He couldn't say the rest of the words. Could it be that his brother was cuckolded? After all, he hadn't been back for so many years.
Hu Songlin's eyes instantly turned pity when he looked at Gu Weicheng.
"Put away that sympathetic look in your eyes." Gu Weicheng said coldly. He didn't need anyone's sympathy.
"Okay, okay, I'll put it away. Didn't the brigade commander say that they are in the guesthouse now? I'll go with you to take a look." Hu Songlin said. What if the child really isn't Gu Weicheng's...
Oh, he really didn’t know what to do. What was going on?
When they arrived at the guesthouse, the female soldier on duty immediately told them the room number where Li Xia was staying as soon as she saw Gu Weicheng.
The door of the room was not closed tightly, and there was a gap, which Li Xia left for ventilation.
A gentle female voice and a child's tender voice were heard from inside.
"Mom, do PLA soldiers have to run so many laps every day?"
"Well, they not only have to run a lot of laps, but also do more training tasks to prepare for war. The People's Liberation Army is the cutest people in the world. Without them, we would not have the peace we have now."
"My dad is also a member of the People's Liberation Army. Does that mean he is also the cutest person?"
"Of course, Dad is also the cutest person." Li Xia taught An An patiently.
These words were all heard by the two people outside the door. Hu Songlin whispered:
"Gu Tuan, what my sister-in-law said makes sense. She doesn't seem like that kind of person. Maybe there's some misunderstanding here."
I hope so.
As they were husband and wife, Gu Weicheng didn't want to think too badly of Li Xia, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
An An heard a knock on the door and immediately ran over to open it: "It must be Uncle Li!"
The door was opened, An An looked up and found that the person standing in front of the door was not Uncle Xiao Li, but was actually the soldier uncle he had met before!
An An turned around happily and said to Li Xia: "Mom, they are the two PLA uncles I met on the train!"
"An An!" Hu Songlin was also extremely surprised when he saw An An, and he understood all of a sudden, "So your father is Gu Tuan?"
Seeing An An's face, what else is there to not understand?
An An never expected that the PLA uncle whom he called "Dad" on the train was actually his dad.
He looked back at Li Xia, seeking an answer.
Li Xia stood up from the chair and looked at Gu Weicheng.
He has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, three-dimensional facial features and a jawline as sharp as a knife. He is worthy of being the male protagonist in the novel and his appearance is indeed superior.
Apart from anything else, Gu Weicheng is far better than Zhou Qingshan in terms of appearance. I really don’t know why the original owner liked Zhou Qingshan.
"An An, call me daddy." Li Xia gave An An an affirmative look.
An An got a positive answer, but he didn't know what happened. Before he met his father, he was particularly looking forward to seeing his father. Now that his father was standing in front of him, he couldn't call out his name for a moment.
He opened his mouth but no sound came out.
Gu Weicheng didn't blame him at all. He squatted down and looked at An An at eye level, so that An An didn't have to look up at him all the time: "Your name is An An?"
Gu Weicheng usually trained his soldiers a lot, so he was used to speaking in a cold and harsh tone. For fear of scaring the child, he deliberately softened his tone, which seemed a little strange.
An An nodded and whispered, "An An is my nickname, and my full name is Gu Shi An. Gu means take care of, Shi means time, and An means peace."
Gu Shian, who has the same surname as him, is his son.
It's not just because of the surname, it's just that An An looks so much like him.
Gu Weicheng looked at the serious little guy and felt a little warm in his chest: "It sounds good."
An An chuckled and glanced at Li Xia: "That's the name my mother gave me!"
Gu Weicheng searched his pockets, trying to take out some children's candy, but he came in such a hurry that he had not prepared anything and could not take anything out.
"I have it here, I have it here." Hu Songlin took out a few fruit candies from his pocket and handed them over.
Gu Weicheng took the candies and gave them all to An An, then said to Hu Songlin, "You can go first."
Hu Songlin: “…”
You just throw the person away after you use him, right?
Forget it, he endured it because his good brother had finally reunited with his wife and children!
"Okay, then I'll leave first. You three can have a good chat. Sister-in-law, I'll be leaving first." Hu Songlin greeted Li Xia.
Li Xia nodded and watched Hu Songlin leave.
After Hu Songlin left, Li Xia said, "An An was born four years ago. This is his birth certificate. His birthday is in May..."
Before she finished her words, Gu Weicheng said, "I'm sorry, I wasn't with you when you gave birth. Raising a child is not an easy thing. You must have had a hard time these years."
Li Xia choked. She was afraid that Gu Weicheng would suspect that An An was not his son, so she took out the birth certificate to show him.
After all, the original owner and Gu Weicheng had no feelings for each other from the beginning. She had always liked Zhou Qingshan. The two had not met for so many years. Now a child suddenly appeared. Anyone would suspect that the child was not his.
I didn't expect his first words would be an apology.
But it's true that An An is exactly like him.
Before seeing Gu Weicheng, Li Xia only knew from the information given in the original text that An An looked very similar to Gu Weicheng. But she had no way of knowing how similar they were. Now that she saw Gu Weicheng, she understood everything.
An An is like a smaller version of Gu Weicheng, but she looks much cuter than Gu Weicheng.
"No need to apologize, it's not your fault." Li Xia said.
How could he be blamed for this? The original owner had not told him about her pregnancy, and even refused to contact him.
"No matter whether it is true or not, I still owe you in this matter," said Gu Weicheng.
Thinking of the divorce letter he had received before, Gu Weicheng wondered in his heart why Li Xia came to the army this time. Could it be that she came here to divorce him because she saw that he had not returned?
If there were no child, he would definitely agree if Li Xia insisted on getting a divorce, but now they have a child...
Although they only had that one ridiculous night and there was no love between them, for the sake of their children, he wanted her to reconsider the divorce.
He knew very well how hard life was for a child without a mother.
Gu Weicheng said: "I received the letter you sent me before. You came here this time..."
Li Xia also spoke up: "I had a falling out with my uncle and his family, and I couldn't stay in my hometown any longer, so I brought An An to join the army. Do you have any objections?"
"Follow the army?" Gu Weicheng's originally tightly pursed lips visibly lifted up, and he immediately said,
"Of course I have no objection. I just came out of the brigade commander's office, and the brigade commander also said that it is a good thing for you to come with the army."
Li Xia glanced at him and asked, "So you agreed because your brigade commander said so?"
Gu Weicheng immediately denied: "Of course not, I have always hoped that you could come with the army."
Seeing that Gu Weicheng looked nervous, afraid that he might have said something wrong, Li Xia couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. It was quite interesting to see a serious person in a panic.
