Chapter 127 The Child’s Father…

Gu Xixi opened her eyes wide in the darkness in the back seat, looking at the front driving seat with some disappointment.

She thought the handsome dad was going to get close to her and ask her idol directly if he was her mother.

If she is really an idol, she has been hanging out with idols a lot recently, and the gossip system hasn't given any clues.

Do I really have to eat enough melons from 7 specific melon-eaters before I can unlock her mom?

Gu Xixi looked at the night scene passing quickly outside the car window, feeling a little bit of anticipation in her heart.

Who could be her mother?

After confirming with Shen Ruoan, Gu Jingyan decided to strike while the iron was hot and talk to Yu Jia next.

Shen Ruoan and Gu Xixi have some friendship after all, and he has a rough idea of ​​Shen Ruoan's temper.

But Yu Jia had no connection with him at all.

The only contact was that day outside the bathroom, when Yu Jia encountered the killer and did not run away, but stayed to help.

Gu Jingyan also took this opportunity to invite Yu Jia to dinner as a token of thanks.

The reserved private room is in the tallest restaurant in the city center, with a 360-degree panoramic floor-to-ceiling view.

This time, Gu Jingyan did not bring Gu Xixi with him. He made a special appointment to meet Yu Jia at noon. Gu Xixi was in kindergarten.

Yu Jia was wearing casual clothes, sunglasses and a hat, for fear of being recognized by passers-by.

If someone were to photograph her meeting Gu Jingyan, who knows what strange news would break out.

"Mr. Gu, I didn't help you much that day," Yu Jia was not a person who liked to be polite. As soon as he sat down, he got straight to the point. "The person who really helped you was Shen Ruoan."

Gu Jingyan has come into contact with many people with different personalities. As soon as the other person opens his mouth, he can judge what kind of person he is.

And Yu Jia's straightforward way of speaking makes it really hard to guess what he is saying.

"I know." Gu Jingyan nodded and motioned for her to drink coffee first.

Yu Jia combed her hair and sat opposite Gu Jingyan, farthest away.

"Then Mr. Gu, is there something else that you want me to do?"

"Why not just come straight out and talk about it."^o^

"I have to join the crew tomorrow, so it's not very convenient for me to come out."

"If Mr. Gu has more questions, how about asking them all at once today?"

He had seen people who played straight balls before, but this was the first time Gu Jingyan encountered a style of player who could hit the ball straight to the point of killing someone.

Yu Jia casually tied her hair into a low side ponytail and tilted the brim of her hat to the right so that she could drink coffee more conveniently.

"Then, Miss Yu, can you keep today's question a secret?" Gu Jingyan's dark eyes seemed to have a mysterious magic, forcing Yu Jia to seriously stop what she was doing.

Without any hesitation, Yu Jia nodded: "I will keep it a secret."

Gu Jingyan had already checked Yu Jia's reputation.

She is a carefree and loyal person. She speaks her mind directly and hates people beating around the bush.

The reputation in the circle is polarized.

Some people think she is too direct, has no emotional intelligence, and has an unpleasant personality.

But some people like her because she is loyal, carefree, free but has a bottom line.

She accidentally caught a female actor who was in the same crew with her having a tryst with a male actor.

The two begged her to keep it a secret, but she kept it secret until they announced their marriage three years later, and she never mentioned what happened that day.

After getting married, the couple laughed and revealed the secret, praising Yu Jia for being a very good person.

Gu Jingyan is not used to pinning his fate on others.

But even Gu Xixi, with such powerful mysterious powers, couldn't find the woman that night. Gu Jingyan thought he had to do something.

"Ms. Yu, shall I just be frank?" Gu Jingyan hoped to get an answer as soon as possible.

Yu Jia drank coffee while poking at her phone and replied: "Go ahead."

"Do you have children?"

Yu Jia: “Cough cough cough…”

Halfway through drinking her coffee, she started coughing violently and her throat felt burning.

Yu Jia coughed so hard that she couldn't speak. She could only wave her hands constantly, her cheeks flushed.

Gu Jingyan handed her a glass of lemonade. She snatched it and drank a few sips before she felt a little better.

When hearing the word "child", Yu Jia's eyes changed drastically.

From the calm and nonchalant attitude just now, he was suddenly covered with a layer of guilt and uneasiness.

As if someone had discovered her secret, Yu Jia immediately exuded a defensive aura and her eyes became more vigilant than before.

"What do you mean?"

"Miss Yu asked me to speak frankly, so I asked." Gu Jingyan keenly sensed the changes in Yu Jia.

This question... probably has something to do with cat poop.

Yu Jia drank a sip of lemonade in silence, gently clearing the discomfort in his throat.

He looked down at the table, as if he was in a fierce psychological struggle.

"Mr. Gu..." The woman sitting opposite him spoke in a hoarse voice, as if someone was holding her lifeline, and her tone was like begging, "I just promised you that I would keep it a secret, what about you? If I answer you, will you keep it a secret for me?"

Gu Jingyan nodded seriously and gently.

His eyes have the power to deceive people into believing in his magic.

Yu Jia took another sip of lemonade and whispered, "I have a child."

After that, the room fell into silence.

Gu Jingyan felt something hit his chest, and his calm expression changed silently.

Yu Jia smiled helplessly: "How do you know? It's impossible for outsiders to know this."

Gu Jingyan looked at her in a daze: "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Yu Jia's tone suddenly rose, "You don't know why you suddenly ask me this?

She felt like someone had stepped on her tail and almost jumped up in excitement.

"Do you just like to ask others if they have children for no reason?"

"I remember

Maybe we didn’t know each other before?”

"We have no grudges against each other, why do you want to dig into my privacy?"

"If I or someone around me has offended you, you can just say it directly, instead of doing something behind my back."

The woman opposite instantly raised her sharp thorns, which was an instinctive defensive state.

"Ms. Yu, I think you misunderstood."

"I don't mean to pry into your privacy. I'm just looking for someone."

Yu Jia frowned: "Who are you looking for?"

Gu Jingyan did not answer her question, but instead asked a new one and waited for her answer.

"Miss Yu, do you really have a child?"

At this point, Yu Jia didn't want to hide it anymore: "Yes, I have a child, he is four years old."

"The child's father..."

"Don't mention him to me!"

Yu Jia's face turned livid, and the anger in his eyes almost burned out of his head.

The child's father was someone she didn't want to think about anymore.

"Ms. Yu, I won't hide it from you anymore. The person I'm looking for is Xixi's mother."

"What do you mean?" Yu Jia was stunned.

"I did investigate you before, because I got some evidence showing that you might be Xixi's mother."

Listening to Gu Jingyan's words, Yu Jia became as stiff as a stone statue that had been weathered for a long time, and he stood there completely.
