Gu Liyan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go in and take a look!"
"You should just forget about it and go back to the car to rest. What if there's danger?" Mo Chen hurriedly pulled Gu Liyan along.
"Don't worry, don't forget I've trained too!" Gu Liyan said with a smile.
Mo Chen was speechless. Even with his physique, he hadn't seen any results from training!
"I will protect Xiao Li!" Hua Baixian said earnestly, linking her arm with Gu Liyan's.
Mo Chen really didn't know what to say. Both of them were show-offs! In the end, the three of them went in together. Mo Chen walked in front, while Gu Liyan and Hua Baixian followed behind, carefully making their way inside.
Strangely enough, despite being uninhabited year-round, the Quanjiu Orphanage is remarkably clean and tidy, without a speck of dust.
Mo Chen looked around with a serious and wary expression, as if afraid that a man-eating monster might suddenly appear from somewhere.
Hua Baixian was also looking nervous. Gu Liyan looked around and couldn't help but ask, "Then..."
"Ah!" Before Gu Liyan could finish speaking, Hua Baixian exclaimed in fright.
Mo Chen turned around and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Gu Liyan awkwardly pointed to the switch next to him and said, "Don't you think it's very dark if we walk in the dark?"
As he spoke, he reached out and turned on the switch, and the lights in the corridor instantly turned on, as if it were daytime.
Mo Chen was about to speak when he noticed his reflection in both the floor and the ceiling. Looking around, Gu Liyan and Hua Baixian also noticed this phenomenon.
"This place is really eerie!" Gu Liyan said with an awkward laugh.
Gu Liyan's laughter echoed, and Hua Baixian turned pale and trembled with fright. She hurriedly said, "Little Li, stop laughing! I feel so scared here!"
Gu Liyan laughed heartily, "You just said you would protect me, so don't go back on your word and run away if there's any danger!"
Hua Baixian quickly interjected, "No, I'll carry you and run away!"
Gu Liyan couldn't help but laugh; Hua Baixian looked so adorable.
Mo Chen said irritably, "You two should stop flirting right now. There are definitely people around. You two better be careful!"
"Oh!" Gu Liyan and Hua Baixian, like children caught red-handed, lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes.
Mo Chen glared at them and continued walking forward.
Hua Baixian clung nervously to Gu Liyan's arm, as if afraid he would abandon her.
Gu Liyan had also filmed horror movies before and had seen places even scarier than this. The lighting made him feel that there was not much danger.
The rooms were all sealed off, making it impossible to see the main hall or what was inside. After walking for several minutes, we still hadn't reached the end.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and Gu Liyan stopped in his tracks. Hua Baixian, trembling, asked, "What happened?"
Gu Liyan glanced at the room beside him and walked towards the door. Hua Baixian hurriedly said, "Don't go! It's dangerous!"
Mo Chen also stopped in his tracks, and seeing Gu Liyan about to go over, he hurriedly said, "Don't go!"
Gu Liyan ignored the two of them and knocked on the door. Hua Baixian and Mo Chen were so nervous that their throats were almost in their throats. They looked at Gu Liyan with great tension.
Creak—the door opened!
A small figure emerged, yawning and rubbing their eyes. "Who is it? Didn't you say you wouldn't wake me up? Why..."
Her delicate and lovely face made her look only ten years old. She had big, watery eyes and smooth, delicate skin like a porcelain doll. She was extremely beautiful.
He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence because he saw the stunningly beautiful young man standing at the door.
"Daddy!" Xiao Tao rushed over and jumped onto Gu Liyan's lap.
Gu Liyan instinctively hugged him to prevent him from falling.
"Daddy, I missed you so much! You finally came to pick me up!" Xiao Tao rubbed against Gu Liyan's face. "You know what? I was so bored here!"
Gu Liyan was dumbfounded. She quickly put him down and said irritably, "Who's your dad? Don't go around claiming relatives like that!"
Gu Tao looked at Gu Liyan and Hua Baixian beside her with a wronged expression. "You and Mother are both here, why don't you recognize Xiao Tao?"
"Xiao Tao?!" This time it was Hua Baixian's turn to be surprised. She squatted down, looked at Gu Tao, and excitedly hugged her. "You're Xiao Tao? How did you get here?"
Gu Tao hugged Hua Baixian and said with a wronged expression, "Mother, it was Aunt Momo who told me to wait for you here."
"Mo Mo?" Hua Baixian was completely puzzled: Who is Mo Mo?
"Isn't it Ai Xuan? Who is Aunt Mo Mo?" Mo Chen asked in confusion.
"Aunt Aixuan works under Aunt Momo and takes care of my daily needs!" Gu Tao said with a grin. "Uncle Mo Chen, you look very handsome in modern clothes! Do many pretty young ladies like you?"
"Ahem, children speak without thinking!" Mo Chen blushed.
Gu Tao said with a grin, "Aunt Mo Mo really didn't lie to me. Father, Mother, and Uncle Mo Chen are all here!"
The three looked at each other, still unsure who Momo was.
Gu Liyan frowned and said, "You brat, get down here right now! Don't you know how heavy you are?"
Hua Baixian said, "It's not heavy."
“Yes, Xiao Tao isn’t heavy!” Gu Tao said, blinking her big, watery eyes.
Gu Liyan looked at Gu Tao in Hua Baixian's arms, his face dark. "Get down right now, did you hear me? If you want to be held, let your Uncle Mo Chen hold you. Your mother still has to take care of your father!"
Gu Tao's eyes lit up, and she knew what Gu Liyan meant. She jumped down and went to hug Mo Chen with a grin.
Hua Baixian pouted, "Why are you being so fierce?"
"You believe him when he says it's your child? When were you born? When did I have your child?" Gu Liyan said irritably.
