Chapter 3: Return to The Capital (1)

He then noticed the beautiful five-year-old girl next to her.

He let out a helpless sigh.

Do you know how long I've been looking for you... You actually have a child now?

Will you still remember me?

"Send someone to keep an eye on the mother and daughter's movements." The man seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on his usually cold face. The corners of his thin lips curled up slightly. "She's extremely careful, remember to keep a distance from her."

The assistant's throat tightened, and he hurriedly replied, "Yes, Young Master."

...

On the other side, Gu Chu had no idea that someone had gone to check on her house.

At this moment, she still had to pretend to be a five-year-old child and snuggle in her mommy's arms. Her pair of big black eyes pretended to be curious as she observed the city scenery outside the car.

"Mommy, there are so many cars outside. Wow, that car is so beautiful." Gu Chu looked as if she had never seen the world before.

Nobody would know that in her previous life, she had been hunted down by a certain bastard across the globe. She had seen everything and played with everything.

Gu Manxi hugged her child tightly and smiled gently. "Chuchu, this is a big city. Of course there are many cars."

"Oh, Chuchu likes cars. Our town is full of bicycles and tricycles. Chuchu has never seen those with four wheels," Gu Chu said in a baby voice.

The driver in front saw the mother and daughter in plain clothes through the rearview mirror. The driver sighed in his heart. He didn't expect the missing young lady of the Zhao family to have an idiot child.

Her biological father was also still missing.

Having an illegitimate child was definitely a scandal in a wealthy family.

Thinking of this, the driver felt even more contempt in his heart, but he still tried his best to speak in a respectful tone. "Miss, you can sleep for a while in the car. We still have a few hours before we arrive in the capital."

"Sorry to trouble you, Uncle Wang." Gu Manxi always had that gentle and soft-spoken good temper. She did not feel that it was unreasonable to take a small shabby car to the capital.

On the other hand, Gu Chu raised her little head from Manxi's embrace. She gently pursed her pink laps asked pitifully, "Uncle Driver, does Grandmother really like Chuchu and Mommy?"

The driver was stunned for a moment. Recalling Mrs. Zhao's exhortation, he hurriedly nodded. "Of course. Miss is Mrs. Zhao's daughter. Mrs. Zhao is very happy to be able to find her lost child. The Zhao family welcomes Miss to come back."

A smile appeared in Gu Manxi's eyes.

Gu Chu pursed her lips and said in a childish voice, "Since Grandma likes Mommy and Chuchu so much, why didn't she send a plane to pick us up? Chuchu watched TV before. It says that from here to the capital, it's only a two-hour flight."

Gu Chu was still young, but her words were quite orderly. She didn't have any inarticulate words like her peers, but her voice was still a little immature and sounded quite cute.

Gu Manxi's hand that was caressing the child paused slightly, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed. She didn't expect this.

The driver also didn't expect that a five-year-old child would ask such a question. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer. He could only say awkwardly, "but, maybe the tickets are sold out... the tickets to the capital are very popular."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Chu Chu understands." Gu Chu glanced at his mother and thought, I've been explicit enough. Mom, you should have noticed the problem here!

Gu Manxi was a person who had seen the world. She had been in the entertainment industry and had been a lover of a rich man. Naturally, she knew that it wasn't difficult to book a ticket.

There would always be empty seats in the VIP cabin.

In fact, the Zhao family was considered a wealthy family in the capital. They had more than one private plane and more than one luxury car.

If Tang Chunxiu really missed her daughter, if the Zhao family really welcomed Gu Manxi back to her family, why would they send a shabby van to bring the two of them into the capital as subtle as possible?

Thinking of this, Gu Manxi finally felt a little worried. She tightened her arms around Gu Chu. She vaguely sensed that something was not right.
