Xia Ran was slightly stunned after hearing Gu Zheng's words.
"You...you're telling the truth?"
Even without looking at Xia Ran, Gu Zheng could tell from her tone that she was happy and joyful.
For a moment, Gu Zheng's mood seemed to have soured, and when he answered Xia Ran, he only gave a faint "hmm".
"Um."
However, Xia Ran didn't detect anything wrong with Gu Zheng's tone at all, and just responded excitedly.
"So that's how it is, baby, Daddy really loves you!"
After Xia Ran finished speaking, she lowered her head and gave Gu Chen a hard kiss on the face.
Gu Chen was stunned by the kiss, his round eyes filled with confusion.
Is the little tyrant no longer angry with him?
Although he couldn't understand much of what was being said at the hospital, he knew he had upset Xiaobaba, which was why he hadn't dared to speak and was feeling down.
But now the little bastard actually says he loves him?
Seeing Xia Ran's bewildered expression, Xia Ran was even happier.
"Baby, Daddy loves you so much! But baby, it's okay if you want to grow taller, but when you eat, just eat until you're full. You mustn't eat too much, or your tummy will hurt, and Daddy will be worried about you, okay?"
At this moment, Xia Ran's heart was truly filled to the brim.
"Yes! I know!" Gu Chen replied firmly with a smile.
Gu Zheng, who was driving in front, couldn't help but speak up for some reason.
"Are you happy?"
Xia Ran, whose smile hadn't faded, nodded quickly.
"Of course I'm happy! Xiao Chen is so good to me, how could I not be happy? Aren't you happy, A Zheng?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zheng simply snorted heavily and remained silent.
Xia Ran was taken aback, and then assumed that Gu Zheng was feeling uncomfortable because he felt that Gu Chen was good to him.
"Ah Zheng, don't be sad. Xiao Chen actually loves you very much too. Just spend more time with him in the future."
Hearing Xia Ran's words of comfort, Gu Zheng paused, but still did not reply.
He wasn't upset because Gu Chen was nice to Xia Ran; he just didn't know why he was unhappy...
"By the way, Zheng, go to the pharmacy and buy some digestive tablets."
Gu Zheng didn't speak, but Xia Ran knew that Gu Zheng had taken it to heart.
They arrived at the pharmacy. Xia Ran put Gu Chen in the car and prepared to go to the pharmacy to buy the medicine himself.
Gu Chen certainly wanted to go with Xia Ran, but in the end, Xia Ran coaxed him to stay.
After summer, Gu Chen pouted, looking aggrieved.
Gu Zheng turned to look at Gu Chen, gave a soft snort, and said,
"What kind of man pouts all the time?"
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, Gu Chen stopped pouting, but he pursed his lips tightly. He was originally facing Gu Zheng, but now he turned his head and looked directly at the pharmacy outside the window. Xia Ran had already entered the store.
Seeing Gu Chen's expression, Gu Zheng couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
Xia Ran went into the pharmacy and immediately told the clerk that she wanted some digestive tablets, cold medicine, and herbal tea powder suitable for children. In short, she got all sorts of prepared medicines.
He has very few of these things at home, and he needs to start preparing them now.
I bought a lot of things and it cost several hundred yuan. When I paid, the clerk said that because I bought so much, I would get a gift.
Xia Ran only heard that something was being delivered, but didn't ask what it was.
Because he was looking down at his phone, he didn't see the clerk put two boxes of pink Durex condoms inside...
After the shop assistant said that everything was packed for him, Xia Ran picked up the bag and left.
But at the door, he unexpectedly ran into Yu Chao.
"Senior?"
"Xiao Ran? What are you doing here?"
The two spoke in unison, both with surprise on their faces, never expecting to run into each other here.
Yu Chao, in particular, had a bright look in his eyes.
He had lost his phone and therefore lost Xia Ran's contact information.
Last time when he was in his hometown, Xia Ran left in a hurry, so he probably didn't have time to ask where Xia Ran was now.
However, thinking of the child and man with Xia Ran last time, Yu Chao's eyes flickered slightly again.
Xia Ran burst out laughing and said,
"Senior, what a coincidence! I'm here to buy some things, what about you? What brings you here?"
"I'm here to buy some things too. What did you buy? Are you sick or feeling unwell?"
After all, this is a pharmacy, so people coming here to buy things like medicine.
Xia Ran: "No, it's just that my son ate too much today, so I came to buy some digestive tablets."
"Son?" Yu Chao thought of the child he had seen last time. "You... how did you suddenly get married? And that child..."
Yu Chao didn't finish his sentence, but Xia Ran understood the general meaning.
Gu Chen, who was sitting in the car staring intently out the window, widened his eyes when he saw Xia Ran chatting with others.
He turned to look at his father, who was still looking down at his phone, and suddenly started banging on the window!
"Big...Daddy! Look! Look!"
He still can't say a complete sentence directly.
But his words still made Gu Zheng raise his head.
"Look? Look at what?"
Gu Zheng's first glance was naturally directed at Gu Chen, so he didn't notice that Xia Ran was chatting happily with someone else outside.
Seeing his big dad look up, Gu Chen quickly pointed out the window.
"There are...there are bad guys!"
Chapter 50 Don't Abandon Your Baby
"Hmm?" Gu Zheng looked in the direction Gu Chen was pointing.
When he saw Xia Ran and Yu Chao chatting, his eyes immediately turned cold, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.
He turned to look at Gu Chen and asked, "Do you want to go find your stepfather?"
Gu Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded vigorously.
Gu Zheng got out of the car and carried Gu Chen out of the car. As he walked toward Xia Ran, he gave Gu Chen some instructions.
"Good, you know there are bad guys. Remember to tell me next time there are bad guys, otherwise your stepfather will be gone, and you'll never see him again, understand?"
Gu Zheng didn't think there was anything wrong with him threatening Gu Chen, because he was in a very bad mood right now.
Upon hearing that his beloved little father was about to be gone, Gu Chen immediately nodded in agreement.
Gu Zheng was very satisfied with Gu Chen's reaction.
"When we get there, if you call him 'Little Daddy' right away, will he cry?"
Gu Chen nodded, "Yes!"
Gu Zheng: "Then when you go over there, hug your stepfather and cry, ask him if he doesn't want you anymore, understand?"
Gu Chen nodded vigorously again, "Understood!"
After teaching Gu Chen well, Gu Zheng strode towards Xia Ran and the others.
Watching Xia Ran and Yu Chao chatting face to face, he couldn't help but recall the words Qin Hao had told him.
Just because you don't like Xia Ran doesn't mean others don't.
At the time, he confidently asserted that Xia Ran would never like anyone else, and of course, he still has that same confidence now.
However, he felt very uncomfortable watching Xia Ran chatting with others.
Although he didn't like Xia Ran, she was still his nominal partner, and he wouldn't allow her to cheat on him.
Xia Ran was somewhat surprised to hear Yu Chao's words.
"You said you know a very good pediatrician? Someone who is very experienced with children who are late talkers or have other developmental issues?"
During their conversation, Yu Chao asked about Gu Chen. He had seen Gu Chen before; the four- or five-year-old child was at a very active age.
However, Gu Chen, whom he saw at the time, was very quiet, so Yu Chao said something out of turn.
Xia Ran saw that Yu Chao had already asked, so he added a sentence.
Xia Ran would never have said this to anyone else.
But Yu Chao was different. Yu Chao had helped him a lot when he was in school. He treated Yu Chao very differently from other ordinary friends.
"Yes, if you want to take your child to see a doctor, I can recommend you. However, there are long queues at his hospital. If you want to see a doctor, I can take you to his home so he can examine your child privately."
Xia Ran was immediately tempted upon hearing this.
"Is this alright? Won't it be too much trouble for you?"
Although being attracted to someone is one thing, Xia Ran is also afraid of causing trouble for Yu Chao.
Yu Chao smiled slightly and said,
"No, we have a very good relationship."
"In that case, I'll trouble you. Whenever you have time, please take me to see it," Xia Ran said.
Yu Chao: "Okay, but I lost my phone and I don't have your contact information anymore, so could I leave you my contact information now?"
