Gu Mingcheng's smile froze on his face, and he was somewhat embarrassed.
Tang Li didn't intend to give him any face. Chu Jingyi's words had made her realize one thing clearly: Gu Mingcheng was not worthy!
Shen Qingxu offered a way out at the right time, "Mr. Gu, you should leave first. Tang Li is in a bad mood right now, and she doesn't want to see any guests."
When Gu Mingcheng left, his face was very ugly, but he had to pretend to be indifferent.
Once he got into the Gu family's car, he couldn't help but start cursing.
"So what if the child is lost? I think that mother deserves it. It would be better if she never found her, so she'll learn her lesson!"
The butler cautiously reminded him, "Young Master, it's fine if you say this to us, but please don't say it to Miss Tang, otherwise there will really be no hope!"
Gu Mingcheng snorted coldly, "Look at the way she treated me today, do you think I still have a chance?"
The butler pursed his lips and said nothing, but couldn't help but mutter a few complaints in his heart: "That's the young master's own problem!"
He used to pursue disreputable girls, but now that he's met the right one, he acts all high and mighty.
They wouldn't even bother with me!

On the other side, Chen Lei was dumbfounded when he saw the little baby his girlfriend had brought.
"Anqi, is this the birthday present you're giving me?"
Ye Anqi nodded. "Yes, Chen Lei, I was originally planning to buy you a game console, but I think this gift is more important to you!"
Chen Lei looked at the silly kid in front of him and was speechless.
"Was this your child, or mine?"
"I am Lu Jianshen's son!" A-Lu suddenly burst out with a smile.
Chen Lei stared blankly, and for a moment felt that the child looked familiar, or rather, very familiar.
He walked over and asked, "Is your mother Tang Li?"
A-Lu nodded obediently.
He was taken away by Gu Qiquan's men today. I understood when I saw that this young lady's phone screen saver was a photo of Chen Lei and Ye Anqi!
Ye Anqi is Gu Qiquan's assistant and Chen Lei's girlfriend, while Chen Lei is Lu Jianshen's most trusted assistant.
A-Lu secretly asked Ye Anqi for help.
Chen Lei understood; this was the son of his boss's ex-wife, but why did he look somewhat like his boss?
A bold guess formed in Chen Lei's mind, but he was not entirely sure yet.
This child does indeed look a bit like Shen Qingxu!
"Anqi, thank you!"
Ye Anqi raised an eyebrow. "If my boss finds out about this, I'll lose my job. I'll have to rely on you from now on!"
Chen Lei comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, I've got your back!"
The two of them took the child to dinner first. After thinking about it, Chen Lei decided to take the child to Lu Jianshen's house first.
Little did anyone know, Lu Jianshen was on a business trip to Mingcheng that night.
"Boss, did you go to Mingcheng?"
"Yeah, is something wrong? I just got off the plane!" Lu Jianshen said, wiping the wound on the corner of his mouth.
Before deciding to go on the business trip, he happened to see Shen Qingxu and his blind date, so he got into another fight with Shen Qingxu and rushed to Mingcheng with injuries.
"If you have time, please come over as soon as possible. I need your help here!"
Without hesitation, Chen Lei immediately searched for plane tickets to Mingcheng; there were still flights available later today.
He even forgot to contact Tang Li and took the child directly onto a plane to Mingcheng.
Around 1 a.m., after finishing his meeting, Lu Jianshen returned to the hotel and saw Chen Lei asleep on the sofa in the living room of the presidential suite.
"Did you finish making the report I requested? Why are you asleep so early?"
Upon hearing his boss's voice, Chen Lei jumped up. He had been so tired that he had accidentally fallen asleep.
"Boss, I just sat on a plane for over three hours, I'm so sleepy!"
As Chen Lei spoke, he yawned.
He was about to turn on his computer and send the work files when he looked up and noticed that his boss had an injury on his face and a small bandage on it.
"Why are you injured on your face? Who hit you?" Chen Lei immediately became agitated.
Weren't they here to discuss business? How come they got beaten up?
"Just before boarding the plane, I ran into Shen Qingxu and his blind date, so I rushed over and got into a fight with him. It wasn't too serious."
Lu Jianshen sat down on the sofa with an indifferent expression.
"If Shen Qingxu dares to go on another blind date and act irresponsibly, I'll beat him up every time I see him!"
Chen Lei pursed his lips, his gaze seemingly casually sweeping over the direction of the lounge.
Shen Qingxu's child is hiding there. The boss is so angry, is he going to beat the child up later?
"Um... I actually brought another person with me today..."
Chen Lei stammered, just as he was about to introduce A-Lu.
The little guy has already stuck his head out.
Why did you hit my uncle?
Lu Jianshen's expression froze.
This is Mingcheng, a thousand miles away. Why is this child here?
"Chen Lei, what's going on?"
Chen Lei was startled. "Boss, let me explain. It was Gu Qiquan's men who kidnapped this child. My girlfriend was worried, so she rescued him, and then... that's how complicated things went!"
Lu Jianshen looked the little boy in front of him up and down, and felt that he looked familiar.
This brat looks a bit like me, but he also looks like Shen Qingxu!
Wait a minute, what did he just say?
