Qi Xiuming knows Gu Chi.
This kid was notoriously naughty, never caring about anyone except his father, Gu Jueyan. However, the relationship between the Qi and Gu families was good, and he was the elder, so he never expected that this brat would dare to mock him openly and secretly.
If it was Gu Jueyan who came today, he would have been more tolerant and let the matter go, but who the hell is this brat who is still wet behind the ears?
Qi Xiuming's face was stern, and he asked harshly, "Gu Chi, I'm taking care of the household affairs now, why are you butting in?"
Gu Chi stood in front of Qi Sen and looked at Qi Xiuming with disdain: "I called you dad, but you narcissistically claim that this is a family matter. You're just trying to get rejected, don't you know?"
Qi Xiuming's face flushed red, and he pointed at Gu Chi, about to get angry. Jiang Ying, who was standing by, held his hand down and gently persuaded him, "We know your father, and our families have a good relationship. Why make such a scene in the hospital? It would be bad if it got out."
Gu Chi continued to refute him, "You didn't seem to feel bad when you were threatening people in the corridor just now. Did you feel guilty because of my presence?
After saying that, he smiled and said sarcastically, "I didn't expect I had this ability."
Jiang Ying, who is usually gentle and good-tempered, had a stiff expression, but after all, he is an actor, and his ability to control his emotions is far higher than that of ordinary people. But after a while, he returned to his usual self.
She seemed not to hear Gu Chi's mocking words, and smiled softly: "Gu Chi, Qi Sen is our child, can you let us have a good talk with him?"
Gu Chi shook his head in embarrassment: "No. My adopted daughter calls him brother, so rounding it off, I am his father."
"How about this," Gu Chi turned his gaze to Qi Xiuming, "Let's have a good talk between our fathers?"
Qi Sen: ....
Qi Xiuming snorted, glared at Gu Chi and Qi Sen fiercely, and left quickly.
He wanted to see how long this man could remain so proud.
As for Qi Sen...
Just send that kid away.
Jiang Ying frowned slightly and left without saying a word.
In the corridor, Gu Chi laughed proudly and said, "This is not a good temper. He didn't even give my dad three points and left before he finished speaking. It's boring."
Qi Sen, who had been silent since Gu Chi came, paused. Somehow, he began to feel sad for the "dad" Gu Chi mentioned. It seemed that he had suffered a lot of bullying.
After Gu Chi handed the rainbow candy to Cancan as a surprise, before he had time to talk to Cancan, his father called him home with a life-threatening phone call. He sighed when he returned home.
Cancan held the candy and watched her father walk away. After Gu Chi's back disappeared in the corridor, she still stood there and looked at him pitifully.
"Do you like him very much?" Qi Sen asked.
Cancan nodded heavily, her voice sweet, "When I have a stomachache and don't take medicine, Daddy just holds Cancan in his arms and rocks him while telling him stories. Even when Mommy scolds Daddy, he just smiles. He never gets angry."
The little girl's cheeks were soft, and when she mentioned the word "daddy", her eyes seemed to be filled with stars, so bright and moving.
"Daddy said that no matter what problems my brother Cancan encounters, he can protect us." Cancan raised his head and said seriously, "Daddy is so brave."
Qi Sen's gaze was fixed on the empty corridor, and there was a tenderness in his eyes that he himself had not even noticed.
**
In the evening, Qi Sen went home to get some reference books for Pei Shen, and Cancan and Taotao also followed him home.
Cancan sat on a small stool with his back to the stool, rocking it back and forth like a horse, and obediently repeated Qi Sen's words: "Don't open the door to strangers. You have to ask your brother before you can open the door."
"Brother, am I right?" Cancan raised her little head and asked proudly.
"right."
Cancan chuckled and said, "Why is there no reward for answering correctly?"
Qi Sen laughed.
Cancan's little head is always thinking about how to eat more candy.
Putting two rainbow candies in her little hands, Qi Sen reminded her: "Remember to brush your teeth after eating."
Cancan nodded seriously, "I will use a small broom to clean my teeth."
Qi Sen shook his head helplessly, "That's a toothbrush."
He stood up and placed the key on the table. He nodded politely to Taotao and said, "Cancan, please take good care of her and don't open the door to anyone."
"Yes, yes, yes." Taotao nodded repeatedly.
Yesterday she let the little princess leave with the Emperor. When Goddess Qisen found out, her face was gloomy. She still felt scared when she thought of that scene, and she absolutely didn't have the courage to open the door for anyone again.
However, the only people the little princess knows in this world are two princes and the emperor. It seems that no one will come to see the little princess.
Thinking of this, Taotao felt a lot more at ease.
But to Tao's surprise, someone knocked on the door just half an hour after Qi Sen left.
"Is anyone there? We are from the Shangcheng Subdistrict Police Station. Please open the door."
Cancan, who was drawing, stared blankly at the door.
When she was still a little fairy, her third brother told her many things about the human world, the most important of which was: if you encounter problems, ask the police for help.
But she has no problem now?
Cancan walked to the door carefully and said in a baby voice, "Brother said not to open the door."
The two policemen standing outside the door looked at each other. They didn't expect that there was really a child here.
"Little friend, is your name Cancan?"
"Yes." Cancan said loudly while tiptoeing outside.
Seeing this, Taotao hurriedly carried Cancan back to the room and called Qi Sen on the way with a bitter expression.
Help!
Why are there people looking for the little princess every day? !
**
In the hospital, Pei Shen was in a good mood.
He raised his phone. "That student I'm tutoring sent me a text saying your adoptive parents were fired from the factory and might go to jail. So, are you happy?"
Qi Sen calmly wrote down the calculation formula with a pen in hand. After a long while, he replied calmly, "Hmm."
Pei Shen was speechless.
"This is the expression on your face for such a great event that's worth celebrating with firecrackers?"
Qi Sen: “Yeah.”
Pei Shen: ...Forget it.
Let’s just study.
It was quiet for only a few seconds. Pei Shen couldn't suppress his inner joy and kept moving here and looking there.
He is very curious.
What kind of thing could cause Qi Sen's emotions to fluctuate?
Winning a five million lottery ticket?
Or did you get the provincial top scorer in the college entrance examination?
Just as Qi Sen was daydreaming, his phone vibrated.
Qi Sen answered the phone calmly, and after listening for two seconds, his eyes gradually became gloomy.
"What's wrong?" Pei Shen asked worriedly.
Qi Sen held back his breath and said, "Things at home, you should take a good rest."
Before he could finish his words, he walked away.
When Qi Sen trotted all the way to the police station, Cancan was sitting, her little head tilting to the side from time to time as if fishing. When she saw him coming, she rubbed her eyes sleepily and pointed at Qi Sen and said, "My brother is here."
The policewoman smiled and brought a glass of warm water. "You're so good. Lie down on the chair and rest for a while."
Cancan shook her head and held Qi Sen's hand, refusing to move even a little.
Qi Sen's Adam's apple rolled. Although he already had the answer in his heart, he still asked nervously with the last bit of hope: "What's the matter?"
The policewoman's smile faded a little. "We received a report from the public saying that you secretly raised a child you found in your home."
Qi Sen's eyes dimmed, and his hope faded like fireworks after being set off.
"Is this your biological sister?" asked another policeman.
Qi Sen didn't know how to explain it to them.
He rubbed his eyebrows silently, looking tired.
So many things happened that day. Pei Shen was hospitalized, and now Cancan's affairs were revealed again.
He thought of his biological parents and his face became even gloomier.
Cancan's sleepiness disappeared a little, and her little voice was clear and bright: "Yes, it is me."
"This is my second brother. My third brother is sleeping in the hospital. Daddy doesn't know where he is, but he bought rainbow candies for Cancan during the day."
The police had heard this sentence no less than ten times. At this moment, they just smiled perfunctorily and did not believe a word Cancan said.
The child said that her father's name is Gu Chi, the son of the richest man, her third brother is a genius student, her second brother is from a family rich in gold, silver and jewelry, and her eldest brother is a top star in the entertainment industry.
There are three older brothers, each one is more powerful than the other, and their father is even more powerful, becoming the unattainable son of the richest man.
Everyone knows that Gu Chi, the son of the richest man, is only twenty years old. How can a twenty-year-old have an eighteen-year-old child!
Could this lie be a little more truthful when it was made up?
A group of police officers sat collapsed in their seats.
One of them said in a more serious tone: "We need to find this child's family as soon as possible."
Qi Sen: "What if we don't find it?"
"If they are not found, they will be sent to a children's shelter. Later, abandoned children may be sent to an orphanage to be adopted."
The policewoman handed Qi Sen a glass of water and asked, "Do you know where her parents are?"
Qi Sen did not answer this question, but asked: "If I can't find her parents, can't I raise her?"
As soon as the words fell, someone laughed and said, "How can you support her? Even if you support her, she won't be able to register for household registration or go to school. In this world where ID cards and household registration books are needed everywhere, how can you let her survive?"
The policeman looked at Cancan, then at the silent Qi Sen, his expression tired.
The child was talking a lot of unrealistic things, so how could they find her parents?
According to their past experience, such children would most likely not be able to find their parents and would be sent to shelters.
"Can I take her back?" Qi Sen asked, "She only recognizes me as her brother."
The police also discovered this.
But Qi Sen is a boy, and Cancan, although small, is a girl after all.
The news on the Internet now is so scary, with all kinds of perverts. Naturally, they can't let Cancan live with Qi Sen anymore.
Qi Sen knew it was hopeless, so he whispered, "I'll find a hotel near the police station for her to stay temporarily, and this girl named Taotao will take care of her. Is that okay? There are surveillance cameras in the hotel, and we can check everything."
When it came to surveillance, the police looked at each other and nodded in agreement helplessly.
Cancan was completely confused and thought that the matter was resolved. She was preparing to go home happily with her brother, but she never expected to be sent to a house where her brother was not there. She immediately burst into tears in the hotel.
Why would the brother she finally found no longer want her?
Cancan cried aggrievedly: "I want my brother wuwuwu"
Qi Sen squatted down and comforted softly: "Sister Taotao will accompany you."
"I don't want it, I want my brother."
Qi Sen took out ten yuan from his pocket, put the money into Cancan's little hand and said seriously: "Second brother will come to pick you up tomorrow morning, don't be afraid, Cancan. You can use this money to buy candy, it's sweet, Cancan likes it the most."
Cancan pursed her lips and shook her head repeatedly.
A thick layer of sweat oozed from her forehead as she cried. Her little hands tightly grasped the corner of Qi Sen's clothes and she cried very sadly.
Qi Sen pulled her hand away and left without looking back.
When I walked out of the room, I could still hear her heart-wrenching cries in the room.
At that moment, he made a decision in his heart.
He himself didn't know that this decision was exactly the same as when he was a god in his previous life and left Cancan and Wuwang Sea without hesitation.
After all, it was he who bore all the responsibility.
At eleven o'clock, Taotao walked out of the hotel holding a round plastic toy.
The October evening breeze blew by, and she tightened her clothes and trotted to the stone bench in the park next to the hotel.
Qi Sen sat there without saying a word.
"Asleep?" he asked.
"Well, she cried for half an hour after you left, but she calmed down after she couldn't cry anymore. Then I took her to the supermarket. This time, the little princess didn't buy rainbow candy. Instead, she happily bought a toy called a dragon egg."
As he said that, he handed the toy in his hand to Qi Sen.
"The little princess loves it so much that she holds it in her hand all the time. I'm curious about what kind of treasure it is and I want you to see it."
Qi Sen glanced at it and said lightly: "I haven't seen it either."
"oh."
"No one is answering the Emperor's call yet?" Taotao asked.
"Um."
The surroundings suddenly became quiet.
The evening breeze blew through the treetops, stirring the fallen leaves above.
The fallen leaves lying on the ground only add to the desolation.
Qi Sen looked at the fallen leaves dancing in the wind and asked the question that had been lurking in his heart for a long time: "When I was a god, did I never go home?"
Taotao was stunned and nodded.
"The immortals in the Nine Heavens all say that you are heartless and unfeeling. People like you are the ones who accomplish great things." Tao Tao secretly glanced at Qi Sen and whispered, "But I don't think you are heartless."
Tao Tao pursed her lips, her expression serious: "Although I was just a peach in heaven and couldn't transform into an immortal, there were many immortals who came to the peach forest to observe the scenery, and I heard a lot of things."
"Wuwanghai and Jiuchongtian have ceased communication since the birth of the little princess. I'm not entirely sure why, but the story of the little princess and the young grandson of the Heavenly One vying for the position of future Divine Lord has spread like wildfire throughout the Nine Provinces. How could the Heavenly Lord, who has ruled the Ninechongtian for tens of thousands of years, allow a descendant of the Dragon Clan to seize his position? But since Heaven has designated the little princess as the next Little Divine Lord, this will naturally lead to many complications. These are the exact words of the Supreme God Jingyou."
"The other immortals who don't know the reason say that you abandoned Wuwang Sea and came to the Ninth Heaven for the supreme position. This is all false." Tao Tao's voice was a little excited. "I think you came to the Ninth Heaven as a hostage to protect the peace of the Nine Provinces and the Dragon Clan."
Qi Sen looked at the starry sky without saying a word.
Tao Tao was afraid that he wouldn't believe her, so she quickly said, "Everything I said is true."
"On the day the Third Prince descended to the mortal realm to protect the little princess from disaster, you rushed over. He stood before you, covered in blood, and said to you, 'Second brother, you've shouldered so much for our clan. This time, it's my turn to pay a price.'"
Qi Sen's eyebrows moved, and this time he finally responded.
"Covered in blood?"
Taotao bit her lip.
"The little princess had to survive several thunderbolts when she jumped into the Forgotten Immortal Sea. She was only three hundred years old, and she would have been seriously injured if not killed. To protect her, the Third Prince peeled off all his dragon scales and made a dragon scale armor to help the little princess survive the tribulation."
She thought of the past and was moved to tears by Pei Shen's actions.
"God, even in my absence, everyone in the Nine Heavens knows that the embarrassing story of the Third Prince of Wuwanghai being afraid of suffering and pain has spread throughout the Nine Provinces. How painful must it have been for him to peel off the dragon scales."
Taotao sniffed and suddenly smiled. "I've spent eighteen years with the little princess in the Wuwang Sea. Before I met the little princess, I was very curious about why the Supreme God, the Third Prince, and the First Prince jumped into the Wangxian Sea one after another to protect the little princess from disaster. Their entire families defied the heavens and changed her fate in exchange for a lifetime of happiness. Was it worth it?"
"After meeting the little princess, I realized that the love in this world can never be measured by the word 'worth'."
"The little princess loves gold, silver, and jewelry, but she has no idea what they are for. I just heard that you saved your birthday gifts every year in order to achieve wealth and glory and ascend to the ninth heaven, saying that you would turn them into mountains of gold and silver and give them all to you. That way, you wouldn't run away again."
"She has never met you, but she likes you very much. How can you say whether it is worth it or not?"
Qi Sen remained silent for a long time.
Another breeze blew by, and he stood up and said lightly, "Go back to sleep."
After Taotao left, he made a phone call.
"As long as I go home, will you let someone adopt Cancan?"
Jiang Ying smiled and said, "Yes. My cousin's family will not interfere with Cancan's life. Cancan will still live with your friends. They will also have a sum of money that will allow them to live a wealthy life."
Qi Sen clenched his palms tightly, feeling no pain at all. After a long moment, he said, "Okay. I'll go home tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, he wondered curiously whether he looked like this when he left Cancan and went to the Ninth Heaven.
I was so uncomfortable that I couldn't breathe.
**
Gu Chi's phone rang many times.
Gu Chi looked at the phone that his father had snatched away with annoyance, and said hurriedly: "I have something very important to tell you. My baby is going to be sent to an orphanage!"
Gu Jueyan snorted coldly: "Aren't all your toy dragons in your room?"
"It's not them. It's my Cancan! Dad, can't you just adopt Cancan?!"
Gu Jueyan was playing with his phone with a normal expression.
Gu Chi is tired.
"Dad, as long as you agree to adopt Cancan, I can do anything."
Even if it means letting him stay up all night studying hard so that he can inherit the family business as soon as possible and let his father retire early, it is fine.
Gu Chi looked like he had sacrificed his life heroically.
Kneel down, he's willing to kneel down! !
But Gu Jueyan's request was beyond his expectations.
"If you stop buying toy dragons, I'll agree to adopt Cancan."
Gu Chi nodded without hesitation.
Gu Jueyan was stunned.
How come this guy agreed so quickly?
The shrewd man never expected that Gu Chi would repeat the following sentence over and over again:
"If I'm not buying it for myself, I'm buying it for my daughter. Raising a son and buying a dragon at the same time, perfect!"
The author has something to say:
Gu Chi:!!! My son is finally going to have a home!
