"Have you heard? President Gu brought a child to the company today!"
"Do you think this is Mr. Gu's illegitimate daughter?"
"It's hard to say. Our CEO Gu is handsome and rich. Maybe he was secretly born to some woman who is obsessed with him."
"How old is that child? What kind of woman would dare to steal our CEO Gu's seed?"
...
The Gu Group was thrown into turmoil early in the morning by a bombshell dropped by its own president.
Inside Gu Tingxiao's super luxurious office on the 39th floor, the two people, one big and one small, who were at the center of the discussion, were harmoniously playing with the antique golden toad ornament worth millions on President Gu's desk.
Even Assistant Zhou, who knew the inside story, was surprised that their boss, Mr. Gu, who always kept his personal and professional life separate, would bring this child to the company.
Let's go back to this morning, to the dining room of the Gu family villa in Royal Bay.
After finishing the last sip of milk, Xiao An put down her small cup, a ring of milk foam around her pink lips.
Sitting to the side, Gu Tingxiao watched her adorable, satisfied expression after finishing her milk, and a warm smile appeared in his usually aloof eyes.
He reached out and wiped the milk foam from Xiao Anman's lips.
"I'm going to the company now. Why don't you stay home and play? If you want anything, just ask the housekeeper to get it for you."
In the new quarter, there are many things in the company that need to be consulted with him every day, requiring him to make final decisions, and there are many other things that need to be handled by him.
Strictly speaking, Gu Tingxiao is a complete workaholic.
Even as a CEO, he spends almost all his time working, except for necessary appointments.
Today was Xiao Anman's first day at home, and he was worried that she might be scared and not used to it, so Gu Tingxiao patiently sat here and ate breakfast with her.
So he has to go to the company now.
But as he put his hand down and prepared to leave, he heard Xiao Anman, who hadn't uttered a single word since they met yesterday, speak up. Her voice was soft and sweet, full of a milky fragrance: "Daddy."
At that moment, Gu Tingxiao's heart melted; he couldn't bear to leave Xiao Anman alone at home.
So he bent down and picked up Xiao Anman, his palms covering her soft hair, his heart burning with warmth.
"Does An'an want to be with her dad?"
Xiao An nodded softly, her beautiful, crystal-like eyes reflecting Gu Tingxiao's image.
She seemed completely unaware that her sudden outburst had given Gu Tingxiao a great surprise.
Gu Tingxiao, who was overjoyed to have a daughter, is 27 years old, unmarried, 1.85 meters tall, the current president of Gu's Group, and the number one diamond bachelor on the rich list.
At his age, there are plenty of children running around everywhere.
But before he met Xiao Anman, in his eyes those children had nothing to do with crying and making a fuss.
Unlike those little devils disguised as angels, Xiao Anman is sweet, soft, obedient and cute. Gu Tingxiao, who has a daughter's filter, thinks there is no child in the world more beautiful than Xiao Anman in his arms.
"An'an, please call me one more time, okay?"
Knowing that An'an's experience was different from that of ordinary children, Gu Tingxiao was so excited that he couldn't calm down for a moment. He lowered his head and gently coaxed her, hoping that An'an would call him again.
Hi!
How strange.
Why does his voice sound a little strange when he talks to me after I call him "Daddy"?
That was the effect of Gu Tingxiao trembling with excitement but desperately trying to remain calm.
but……
Held in Gu Tingxiao's arms, Xiao An poked his firm chest with her short little finger, looked up at him with her big, watery eyes, and then said in her cute little voice, "Daddy."
Upon receiving a response, Gu Tingxiao softly hummed in agreement, controlling himself not to get too excited. Like a giant mountain bowing its head to gently kiss a delicate little flower bud blooming on the ground, he lightly and shallowly placed a kiss on Xiao Anman's forehead.
“Dad is here.”
...
Then the two, one big and one small, who had just confirmed their father-daughter relationship, seemed to stick together and couldn't be separated.
Reluctant to leave his beloved daughter at home, and also worried about her being out of his sight, and with Xiao Anman also reluctant to part with him, Gu Tingxiao simply brought her to the company.
Little Anman is simply the easiest child in the world to take care of.
Gu Tingxiao was initially a little worried that she wouldn't adapt well to the unfamiliar environment. However, after playing with the golden toad set up, she had to work, so she asked her assistant, Zhou, to prepare a bunch of snacks and toys for her.
Xiao Anman sat in the middle of the large sofa, looking at the dazzling array of trinkets in front of her, and finally chose to look at the colorful cartoon pictures.
She carefully flipped through the pages, and when she came across something interesting, her little eyebrows would twitch slightly in sync with her mood.
While handling company matters, Gu Tingxiao would occasionally glance up at her.
It was almost lunchtime, and Gu Tingxiao, whose meals were not usually very regular, finished his work early.
Leaving his desk, he went to Xiao Anman, who was still engrossed in reading cartoons on the sofa. He picked her up and put her on his lap, asking softly, "An'an, are you hungry? How about Daddy takes you to eat?"
Upon hearing the word "food," An'an, who wasn't hungry before, suddenly felt hungry.
So she stopped looking at the cartoon and stared silently at Gu Tingxiao with her big, dark eyes, as if asking, "What kind of duck do you want to eat?"
What does An'an want to eat?
As soon as the words left his mouth, Gu Tingxiao realized his mistake. An'an had been treated so badly by that family that she probably hadn't eaten anything decent. If he asked her what she wanted to eat, she probably wouldn't be able to tell him.
