Chapter 127: Gu Tingyan knows that for him and Qin Shu, there is absolutely no future this time

~8 min read 1,419 words

When Ji Yanli received the call from Qin Shu, he thought something had happened to her and his heart jumped into his throat; hearing Qin Shu's words, he was stunned.

"What?"

He couldn't react for a moment; Ji Yanli knew how much Qin Shu loved Gu Tingyan.

She loved this man, casting aside all her self-esteem and pride, clipping her own wings, willing to stay by Gu Tingyan's side, loving him to the marrow of her bones.

Outsiders would all sigh at such deep affection.

Only Ji Yanli knew how much torment was in his heart, distancing himself from her while simultaneously unable to stop wanting to be close; loving without being loved in return, he could only silently guard her side.

Qin Shu repeated it again: "I want to see the teacher; I agree to his terms."

Ji Yanli's face held joy, and hearing Qin Shu's words, he said in a low voice: "Good."

——

Qin Shu drove to the Yunyang Hotel, and after reporting the private room at the front desk, she was preparing to go upstairs when a voice behind her called out: "Auntie, it's that bad woman."

Qin Shu looked back and saw Chu Yu holding Chu Chen, standing not far from the hotel watching her; in their eyes, one was arrogant, the other angry.

Qin Shu looked at the child, her brows slightly furrowed; she couldn't bring herself to like him from the bottom of her heart.

He called Chu Yu 'Auntie'? Could it be that Chu Sheng gave birth to him?

Chu Yu walked over with Chu Chen, her lips curling slightly as she smiled at Qin Shu: "You are finally going to be kicked out of the Gu Family, aren't you."

Externally, Chu Yu only acknowledged Chu Sheng as her sister; to her, she and Chu Sheng were born of the same mother, while Qin Shu was the outsider.

The half-sister who would occupy the Chu Family's resources in the future and fight with the two sisters for the family inheritance.

Qin Shu's cold eyes lifted slightly: "You really know how to bark like a dog."

She picked up her bag and turned to leave, too lazy to bother with a clown like Chu Yu.

Clearly possessing off-the-charts combat power, she was pressed to the ground and rubbed by Qin Shu every time, yet she seemed unable to recognize her own position, coming to provoke Qin Shu every time.

Weak yet loves to play.

Chu Sheng played her schemes in the dark, while Chu Yu's schemes were practically written on her forehead.

Seeing Qin Shu's high-and-mighty appearance, Chu Yu was so angry her little face twisted; she wasn't even a true daughter of the Chu Family, what was she so proud of?

"Do you know that Brother Tingyan and my sister have a child?" Chu Yu thought of Chu Sheng's instructions to tell Qin Shu about Chu Chen's identity to force them to divorce.

If Gu Tingyan wanted to hide it but couldn't bear to divorce and marry Chu Sheng, then they had no choice but to use this desperate measure.

Hearing this, Qin Shu's whole body trembled slightly, her heart aching with spasms; she thought she wouldn't feel pain anymore, but at this moment, she still couldn't help it.

Gu Tingyan and Chu Sheng's child?

She turned back to stare at Chu Chen; the child was only a few years older than Chenchen, yet his eyes looked at her with hatred.

It was as if she were the person who had snatched his father away.

"Gu Tingyan and Chu Sheng's child, do you have proof?" Qin Shu tried hard to suppress her emotions, asking in a detached voice.

Chu Yu had come prepared, so of course she wouldn't come empty-handed; her lips curled as she handed the paternity test report to Qin Shu: "Here..."

"To let you give up completely, and die knowing the truth."

"I'll grant your wish."

Qin Shu flipped through the pages of the paternity test report; this report was real, issued by a legitimate hospital, and her face grew paler and paler, her body swaying as if about to fall.

"Oh, right, you don't need to doubt it, Brother Tingyan has known for a long time." Chu Yu crossed her arms, her lips curling as she watched Qin Shu's painful expression, and she lightly raised an eyebrow: "He told us to keep it from you."

"Otherwise, why do you think the Gu Family and the Chu Family are having a marriage alliance?"

She laughed: "Because Gu Tingyan and my sister had a son."

Qin Shu's face turned white again and again; this pain of being betrayed by the man she once loved most swept over her endlessly, making the agony in her heart weigh even heavier.

Qin Shu called Gu Tingyan on the spot, and the other side answered quickly: "You and Chu Sheng had a son?"

"Gu Tingyan, don't lie to me."

Qin Shu's voice was stifled: "The thing I hate most in this life is being lied to."

So that was why he was so impatient to get engaged to the Chu Family and wanted to divorce her.

Hearing this, Gu Tingyan's whole body stiffened slightly, his expression shifted, and he became completely panicked; he wanted to say something but didn't know how to start, his breathing heavy.

Gu Tingyan's voice was low and terrifying: "Who told you."

That bone-deep chill seemed to surge out.

"Daddy."

Chu Chen's voice came from the other end of the phone; Gu Tingyan's face turned white again and again, his fingers gripping the phone tightly until his knuckles turned white, his handsome face nearly twisted beyond recognition.

Gu Tingyan roared: "Don't call me Daddy."

This child was not what Gu Tingyan wanted; his only child would ever be Chenchen.

Hearing Gu Tingyan's angry voice, Chu Yu was so scared that Chu Chen clung to her and cried; she held the child, her brows slightly furrowed: "Brother Tingyan, your son is crying."

This sentence was like a knife, stabbing fiercely into both Gu Tingyan and Qin Shu.

Sure enough, it really was Gu Tingyan's son.

From the man's angry roar and his attempt to distance himself, Qin Shu knew.

So Gu Tingyan had hidden so many things from her.

Coaxing her like a fool.

Qin Shu didn't wait for Gu Tingyan to speak and hung up the phone directly.

Only after hanging up did she seriously examine Chu Chen; the child's features and contours were indeed very similar to Gu Tingyan's, like a pair of biological father and son.

A DNA test report might be faked, but the two of them having such similar appearances could not possibly be fake.

Chu Chen looked just like Gu Tingyan did when he was a child.

Qin Shu pulled a mocking expression, feeling only humiliation.

She thought she was Gu Tingyan's only one, yet he had a child with his 'white moonlight'.

Qin Shu turned and went upstairs with a cold face, no longer caring about the phone in her bag vibrating frantically; they were all calls from Gu Tingyan, but Qin Shu did not answer, nor did she care.

She only felt even more exhausted in body and mind.

Before entering the private room, Qin Shu patted her face, pushed the door open and walked in, seeing the teacher who had once cultivated her with great effort.

Gu Group.

After Gu Tingyan saw that Qin Shu had hung up that call, he became completely panicked; he stood up abruptly and walked out, but Gu Huaiyuan's special assistant blocked his path.

"The board meeting is starting immediately."

"President Gu, this meeting is very important, please do not leave without authorization."

Ever since Gu Tingyan left America without authorization last time, Gu Huaiyuan would have people watch him during important occasions to prevent such irrational things from happening again.

Gu Tingyan's face was cold and gloomy as he returned to the conference room; he crossed his long legs and kept calling Qin Shu with his phone, but the other side had turned it off directly.

Gu Tingyan's thin lips were pressed tightly together, his complexion becoming extremely pale; how was he supposed to explain all of this to Qin Shu?

Gu Tingyan knew that there was absolutely no future for him and Qin Shu this time.

She would not forgive the mistake he had committed; even though it was not his original intention, what had happened had happened.

Qin Shu would not forgive him.
