Lin Yiqian had already taken Xi Xia’s man away from her. Why would a few succulents matter?

Honestly speaking, Lin Yiqian had already started planning how she would steal Gu Nianshen away from Xi Xia the moment she first knew she had fallen for him. However, she was more self-conscious and had more self-control than the other pretentious women.

Moreover, Lin Yiqian was also more cautious.

Since Gu Nianshen had mentioned that he would get the cleaners to clear the trash, she would not bother with cleaning it up on her own.

Lin Yiqian clapped as she stood up. Meanwhile, Gu Nianshen turned away as he seemingly returned to work.

“Are you going to be busy for a while?” Lin Yiqian asked.

“Yes,” Gu Nianshen answered, without looking at her.

“We haven’t eaten anything the entire day. We’re famished. Why don’t I take him out for some food?” Lin Yiqian asked.

Lin Yiqian was so hungry that she could barely stand straight. Lin Xiaoyu must be even more hungry than she was.

In America, it was nearly time for breakfast. Lin Xiaoyu was a child who could consume two sandwiches, a glass of milk, and one whole egg.

Why else would he be this plump?

After finishing her sentence, Lin Yiqian carried Xiaoyu in her arms and started walking out of the room. She had to send him to Bai Se after they ate.

“Since we didn’t manage to have lunch together, let’s have dinner instead,” Gu Nianshen suddenly said.

Lin Yiqian stopped walking before turning around to look at Gu Nianshen, surprised.

Did she hear him mistakenly? Did he just say he wanted to eat with them?

Right then, Gu Nianshen had already turned his computer off and was clearing up his desk to leave.

“Awesome! Mr. Gu is having dinner with us.” Lin Xiaoyu was overjoyed.

He excitedly wrapped his arms around Lin Yiqian’s neck and gave her a peck on her cheek.

Gu Nianshen’s facial expression turned gloomy.

Without any hesitation, Gu Nianshen walked over to Lin Yiqian and took Lin Xiaoyu away from her. As he held Xiaoyu with a single arm, he started heading out of the door.

Lin Xiaoyu leaned against his chest like an obedient sheep on a farm.

Meanwhile, Gu Nianshen seemed to be carrying Xiaoyu with ease using only one arm.

This was a scene that Lin Yiqian had imagined countless times. Tears began to fill her eyes as she wished she could stay in this moment forever.

She wished that time would stand still for the three of them.

“We’ll bring you to the police station first,” Gu Nianshen spoke into Xiaoyu’s ears as soon as they arrived at the elevator.

“No.” Xiaoyu tightened his grip on Gu Nianshen’s shirt.

He looked at Gu Nianshen as he pleaded and wrapped his legs tightly around Gu Nianshen’s waist.

Gu Nianshen turned his head around and saw that Lin Yiqian had not left the room yet. “Then you will call me ‘daddy’. If you do that, I won’t send you to the police station,” he said, threateningly.

“Mr. Gu, do you agree to be my daddy?” Xiaoyu asked, excitedly.

‘You little jerk! Can’t you speak softer?’ Gu Nianshen thought.

“Call me ‘daddy’,” Gu Nianshen said as he covered Xiaoyu’s mouth with his other hand before glaring at him.

“Daddy.”

As soon as Gu Nianshen pulled his hand away, he could hear the kid calling him softly.

It was a pure sound without any coarseness. Gu Nianshen could feel the gentleness in his heart.

As Gu Nianshen remained silent, he continued to stare at Xiaoyu’s face.

Right then, Lin Yiqian walked out of the room. As Gu Nianshen saw her from the corners of his eyes, he immediately pretended as if he was annoyed with Xiaoyu.

Lin Yiqian stopped walking as soon as she heard Xiaoyu calling Gu Nianshen ‘daddy’.
