"Eleven, I want to tell you, thereâs a kid as smart as me in our class, and his name is Jiujiu!"
"Oh, really? A boy, huh? Is he good-looking?"
Eleven acted as if she didnât know him at all, they both started acting, as if the conversation was only for them to understand.
"Not to brag, but heâs really good-looking!" Gu Mengmeng excitedly slapped the table, "Just as handsome as our Mr. Gu!"
Gu Liancheng raised his eyebrow at this, looking at Gu Mengmeng, he said, "Are you exaggerating?"
Could there be a boy as handsome as him?
He didnât believe it.
"Wow, really? Iâd love to meet him and see how handsome he is."
Elevenâs backhanded compliment was well received by Gu Liancheng.
"Hmm..." Gu Mengmeng suddenly blinked at Gu Liancheng, biting her finger, "Come to think of it, Jiujiu... oh goodness..."
She suddenly realized.
Jiujiu somehow looks like Mr. Gu of their family!!
Eleven suddenly held Gu Mengmengâs face and turned it towards her, making silly faces.
"What are you two doing?" Gu Liancheng, the head of the family, tapped a porcelain plate in front of him with his chopsticks.
"Hee hee, itâs a secret, we wonât tell you~" Gu Mengmeng gave a mysterious smile.
"Yes, itâs a secret, itâs just between me and Cute."
A secret? They have just met and they already have a secret! What did they agree on last night?
"Eat!" Boss Gu put on a stern face. He didnât think these two could get into any mischief so he let them be.
Shang Muxue: "..."
Only then did Gu Liancheng notice the other person on the dining table. He asked, "Donât you like the food?"
"No... Letâs eat." She said with an embarrassed smile.
Uh...
Su Qing scratched his chin. In fact, he wasnât saying that no matter how you look at it, Miss Shang seems to be the odd one out at the table...
If he didnât know the truth from the start, he would probably think that Miss Mengmeng was his wifeâs child!
My... how illusions can form...
"Mr. Gu..." Su Qing whispered something into Gu Lianchengâs ear.
"You guys continue eating." He left those words and went to the backyard with Su Qing.
"Mr. Gu, weâve checked everyone. âElevenâ is a pretty uncommon name in Xicheng, but no one is missing."
"No one?" Gu Liancheng frowned.
Who exactly is she then?
The matter about the lady is really tough to check. The nun couldnât tell us anything about her life before she came to the orphanage. Even she didnât seem to know a great deal."
"If she was willing to talk, I wouldnât have to go to great lengths."
But he was pretty sure about one thing.
âElevenâ... there was a high chance that this name was false.
"Mr. Gu, should we investigate everything thatâs happened to her from when she was ten until now? There could be some clues."
"...Never mind, letâs leave it at that."
There might not be a need anymore.
"Notify Allen, we can start the divorce process."
Su Qing stared in shock, "Mr. Gu... Are you really going through with the divorce?"
"Go on."
"Yes, sir!"
So, the day has finally come! What will the lady do...
...
Su Qing brought the Maserati to the front door of the house.
Actually, they could all fit into the car. However, before Shang Muxue could say anything, Eleven respectfully requested, "Su Qing, can you take me home?"
"Huh?" Su Qing was taken aback.
Eleven, however, smiled and said, "Whatâs the matter? Surely there isnât just one car here?"
"There are many cars in the garage!" Gu Mengmeng eagerly answered, "But Eleven, why do you want to go with Xiaoqing? Could it be that you two..."
"Little Devil! What are you thinking!" Eleven poked her nose, "Your father, your mother, and yourself, you guys are a family. I wonât disturb you guys anymore, having Su Qing take me home is enough."
