Now that Gu Chi hadn't returned, they began to ask where he had gone.

"Dad still has things to attend to, he'll be back soon."

Actually, Cheng Keqin went out for a walk alone after leaving Gu Chi before returning.

She also didn't know why Gu Chi hadn't come back yet.

But looking at the time, Gu Chi should be handling things now. It's to free up tomorrow's time to grab Cheng Ruor.

Cheng Kexin and Mengbao finished their meal, but they still hadn't seen Gu Chi. Cheng Kexin then called Gu Chi.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Chi answered the phone, his voice sounding a little tired.

"Why aren't you home yet?" Cheng Kexin asked Gu Chi.

"We're almost there."

After saying that, Cheng Kexin nodded and hung up the phone. Soon, Gu Zhi really came back.

But by then, the baby had already fallen asleep.

"Why are you back so late?" Cheng Kexin looked at Gu Chi who had just entered the room, her brows furrowed.

In Cheng Ke Xin's mind, Gu Chi had never come home this late before. What was the reason for tonight?

"Today the company has something to deal with, Gu Xiao stretched out his hand and came here. I have to fix it as soon as possible to eliminate future trouble."

Gu Chi couldn't tolerate Gu Xiao being so arrogant and domineering anymore, even in prison, he couldn't live peacefully, could he?

Then he truly should be given a good treatment.

So tonight I got home much later than usual.

"Well, then come to sleep. It's getting late." Cheng Kexin listened to Gu Chi's words, only feeling a little sorry for Gu Chi having to bear so much pressure alone. She felt guilty.

He couldn't help her at all, and she felt so useless.

Perhaps Gu Zhi noticed Cheng Ke Xin's feeling of loss, and immediately comforted her by putting his arm around her.

Chén Kěxīn relaxed her mind and fell asleep in Gù Zhì's embrace.

The next morning, Cheng Ke Xin saw Gu Chi was already making breakfast.

Cheng Ke Xin usually wakes up with Gu Chi, but this morning, Gu Chi made breakfast himself.

Isn't he tired?

Cheng Keixin thought about it, but seeing Gu Chi's energetic appearance, she didn't think much of it anymore.

Gu Chi is an adult, he should know best how tired he is and what condition his body is in.

"Come on, eat up."

Gu Chi placed the last dish on the table and watched Cheng Ke Xin with anticipation.

This was Gu Zhi's first time trying this dish today, and as for whether it was good or not, Gu Zhi wasn't quite sure.

So now we can only wait and see what Cheng Keixin's reaction will be.

"Mmm, delicious."

Cheng Ke Xin took a sip and it was indeed much better than usual. It seemed that Gu Chi's skills had improved a lot.

"If it tastes good, eat more."

Gu Zhi reached out and rubbed Cheng Ke Xin's nose, then sat down and ate with her.

"Let's go take a look first and make sure Cheng Ruo'er is here today. If she is, we'll notify the police."

Gu Chi watched Cheng Ke Xin had already finished eating, so he let her go to the room to tidy up, and then followed her.

Cheng Ruor is a living person, and she can run. If she's not at the nursing home today, then the police will have wasted a trip.

"Okay, let's go."

After Cheng Kexin tidied up, she took Gu Chi's arm and walked outside together.

Today, because she had a lot of things to do, Cheng Ke Xin dressed very simply.

A white shirt and a pair of jeans. Although it's a relatively simple outfit, it still perfectly wraps Cheng Keixin's figure.

Even Gu Chi couldn't help but glance at it a few times.

"You said, what exactly is Cheng Ruor doing there?" Cheng Keqin felt that Cheng Ruor didn't like Su Ya'fen, so why did she still stay there?

"Because I have no money."

Gu Chi's single sentence pointed to the crux of the matter, but Cheng Ke Xin believed it was impossible.

In Cheng Kexin's mind, Cheng Ruor was always like a peacock, an animal known for its pride.

How could someone possibly end up living with a mother they dislike just because they're broke?

Cheng Kexin racked her brains but couldn't figure it out, she could only bear to refrain from asking.
