What do you mean by that?
Song Ye was not one to speak without reason, so Gu Tingxiao had more doubts than anger.
"You can answer my question first, or you don't have to answer it. Actually, I already have the answer in my heart."
"Explain yourself clearly."
"An'an isn't your biological daughter, is she?"
At this point, Songye turned off the lighter, and the faint flame went out instantly. His face was hidden in the darkness, leaving only his handsome features.
Gu Tingxiao felt a chill run down his spine. Song Ye must know something to be so certain of An An's identity.
What exactly are you trying to say?
"Half an hour ago," the deep male voice seemed to recall the terrifying scene in the tunnel, hence the slightly enigmatic tone: "I almost died in a car accident."
Clearly, he hadn't died, so Gu Tingxiao was waiting for his next move.
"I feel like your daughter saved my life."
That delicate and beautiful little dumpling, as exquisite as a crystal porcelain doll, possesses a mysterious and unknown power.
An'an... saved Songye?
Even though he knew that Xiao Anman was no ordinary person, Gu Tingxiao did not understand what kind of power she possessed, or to what extent.
So for a moment, the two men who could change the very foundation of Ancheng fell silent.
"Don't worry, even if it weren't for your sake, just because she saved me, I would do everything in my power to protect her and her secret."
Song Ye made this call simply to confirm something, and now that Gu Tingxiao is acting this way, there's nothing he doesn't understand.
Song Ye meant what he said and wanted to put Gu Tingxiao at ease.
But how could Gu Tingxiao be at ease?
Without his knowledge, Xiao Anman might use her own power on someone.
What if the other party has ulterior motives, and Xiao Anman can't tell the difference?
The elderly father, Gu Tingxiao, hung up the phone with deep concern and went to see Xiao Anman.
Onesie pajamas are a killer for looking cute.
After taking a bath, the fair-skinned little dumpling changed into a panda onesie. When Gu Tingxiao pushed the door open, Xiao Anman was fiddling with the various gift boxes on the blanket.
Rolling around~
A crystal ball found by a baby's fist rolled to Gu Tingxiao's feet.
Little Anman, who was looking for a gift, spotted it and tried to chase after it, but she missed the crystal ball and rolled away with it because she was unsteady.
Snap—
After hitting the obstacle, Xiao Anman rubbed her bumped head and looked blankly at Gu Tingxiao, whose expression was slightly complicated.
"Daddy~"
The little guy gave a sweet shout, and the panda headgear tilted slightly.
"Hmm~"
A smile unconsciously crept onto her lips. Gu Tingxiao squatted down, reached out and easily picked up the little panda An'an, then placed her on the flat blanket next to her and reached for the crystal ball that she had tried to catch but couldn't.
"for you."
"Thank you, Daddy!"
The crystal ball was actually quite heavy, but Xiao Anman didn't feel it was heavy at all when she held it in her hand.
The gifts piled up like a small mountain after the death of the red panda An An.
Gu Tingxiao pinched her panda ears, looking at her innocent and naive nature all day, and was a little unsure where to begin talking to her about her identity.
"What is An'an looking for?"
"A gift for Daddy~"
Xiao An, who habitually answers Gu Tingxiao's questions, realized she had spoken too quickly as soon as she opened her mouth, clutching the crystal ball in her hand.
So the poor crystal ball rolled away again, and Xiao An covered her mouth with her two little hands, her big, clear eyes filled with regret.
Oh dear, what should we do?
She's already said it.
Gu Tingxiao was completely charmed by the adorable little panda An'an. He pretended not to hear what An'an said, stretched out his long arm, and retrieved the crystal ball that had rolled away for An'an.
After feeling annoyed, Xiao An looked at Gu Tingxiao's unmoving expression and wondered if her father had been listening to her, since he hadn't reacted at all.
Okay, since it's going to be given to Dad anyway, let's just take it out now.
Xiao Anman placed the crystal ball next to herself, then turned around and huffed and puffed as she crawled over a pile of beautifully wrapped gift boxes. After searching for a while, she finally found what she wanted.
It is a small rectangular box in white gold.
"Daddy, here you go~"
"Is this a gift from An'an to her father?"
"Um."
With expectant eyes, she looked at Gu Tingxiao. "Daddy, look! It's a gift An'an prepared for you!"
Gu Tingxiao's slender fingers untied the gift box and then opened it.
Inside was a chubby blue porcelain doll, quite pretty, but with a slightly serious expression.
"Daddy, Daddy, is it pretty?"
She and her aunt Xuexi both thought the doll looked a lot like her dad, so they brought it back as a gift for him.
"nice."
Inside Gu Tingxiao's room drawer, there is still a dried green fruit and a beautiful blue butterfly that has been made into a specimen, both gifts from Xiao Anman.
Looks like we're getting some new stuff.
"Let's secretly show Daddy Helian's gift."
Xiao An was so happy that the gift she brought back was liked that she couldn't help but want to share the rest with Gu Tingxiao.
There are actually two smaller boxes.
A little girl wearing a skirt and with her hair in a little bun, and a chibi-style boy doll.
It's obvious that one is Xiao Anman and the other is Helian Min.
"Daddy, look down there~"
The little gift was very exquisite. Gu Tingxiao turned the porcelain doll in his hand over, and there was a small smiley face on the sole of its feet.
"I had the shop owner draw it on!"
Gu Xuexi actually suggested writing their names, but Xiao An thought the smiley face looked better, so she asked the shop owner to carve a small smiley face on the bottom of each doll.
"Thank you, An'an."
Gu Tingxiao stroked the chubby porcelain doll. The little baby in front of him was lying on the blanket, holding his chubby little face, looking at him with joyful eyes.
After a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Did An'an run into someone while she was with her aunt today?"
Wow, Daddy is so amazing! He even knew that!
She had originally planned to ask her dad about the uncle who looked a lot like him later.
She looked at Gu Tingxiao with admiration and nodded.
"Daddy, how did you know I saw that uncle?"
Gu Tingxiao thought that Xiao Anman was referring to Songye.
Xiao Anman thought Gu Tingxiao was talking about Song Yanlin.
"Did An'an see anything strange?"
Song Ye himself may not know exactly how Xiao Anman saved him, so Gu Tingxiao now wants to find out exactly what Xiao Anman did and what he did.
