Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Jinrong and his sister were dumbfounded by his cute and innocent appearance.
Is this kid the sa person they know?
Who was it that made faces at them just now?
And who was it that sat on Gu Jinyue?
“Uncle, don’t be deceived by his appearance! It’s all an act!” Gu Jinyue quickly spoke up, afraid that Gu Zhicheng would be fooled by Gu Xiaonan.
Qitian Yu finally regained his senses and realized that this child was the result of an affair between Gu Qingluan and an unknown man, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.
However, he said, “Miss Gu, could it be that you have so misunderstanding about this child? He is still young and innocent. How could he pretend to be soone he’s not?”
When Qitian Yu looked at her, Gu Jinyue blushed slightly, and her voice unconsciously softened. “Fifth Prince, you don’t know. This kid is the illegitimate child of Gu Qingluan, born out of wedlock. He has no manners, lacks respect for elders, speaks rudely, tells lies, and is quick to resort to violence. Please don’t be deceived by his appearance.”
Qitian Yu was greatly surprised and shook his head in disbelief. “I believe that a child raised by Gu Qingluan wouldn’t be as you described. Miss Gu, you must have misunderstood.”
Feeling anxious at Qitian Yu’s response, Gu Jinyue couldn’t maintain her gentle facade and spoke urgently, “Fifth Prince, you must believe ! This kid is full of mischief. Just look at my face; he caused to fall like this! He deliberately sat on earlier, causing more injuries.”
Worried that Qitian Yu wouldn’t believe her, she pointed to Gu Zhicheng and Gu Jinrong. “If you don’t believe , you can ask my uncle and brother. They both witnessed it.”
Gu Jinrong imdiately nodded in support of his sister.
Gu Zhicheng also nodded in agreent.
Gu Xiaonan, being held in Qitian Yu’s hand, looked pitifully innocent. “I didn’t an to. They were going to hit , so I got scared and ran. Who knew this aunty would suddenly fall where I was standing? I accidentally stepped on her and then got startled by this uncle, causing to slip and fall.”
Qitian Yu glanced at Gu Jinyue. “Miss Gu, it seems there has been a misunderstanding.”
“He’s just trying to argue, Fifth Prince! Please don’t believe him!” Gu Jinyue was extrely agitated.
“Miss Gu, he’s just a child. Why bother arguing with him? In my opinion, let this matter go!” Qitian Yu replied calmly.
Gu Jinyue wanted to refute, but Gu Zhicheng interrupted her, “Fifth Prince, this is a family matter of our Gu family. Please allow us to handle it ourselves.”
“If it were any other matter, I naturally wouldn’t intervene. But I have had a deep relationship with Qingluan for many years and can’t just stand by. I hope the head of the Gu family will take my relationship into consideration and releases this child.”
Gu Xiaonan looked at him in confusion.
According to Yuanxi, Qitian Yu wasn’t a good person and had even been beaten by his own mother before.
Why was Qitian Yu helping him?
Beware of those who offer excessive kindness unprovoked, as they may have ulterior motives!
This guy definitely had no good intentions!
“And what if we don’t release him?” Gu Zhicheng’s face turned serious. “Fifth Prince, I advise you not to ddle in this matter!”
Qitian Yu replied firmly, “If the head of the Gu family insists on taking him, then I have no choice but to take matters into my own hands!”
As soon as he finished speaking, several dark figures silently appeared behind Qitian Yu.
“Today, as long as we’re here, no one can take away Qingluan’s child!”
“Arc you crazy, Fifth Prince? This is Gu Qingluan’s illegitimate child, born out of her affair with an unknown man! She betrayed you, so why are you helping her?” Gu Jinyue asked incredulously.
Why?
Why was the Fifth Prince protecting Gu Qingluan?
Shouldn’t he be angry at the sight of this illegitimate child?
Has he already forgiven her for making him a laughingstock?
