Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Li Jiang's scalp tingled as he looked at the appraisal report in Lu Zhiyuan's hand. The moment he received the report, he couldn't resist his curiosity and took a quick glance.

Due to anonymity, only the results were displayed.

Confirmation of parent-child relationship!

Lu Zhiyuan gazed at the thin sheet of paper, almost making out nothing due to his shock. Li Jiang held his breath, looking down at his toes. This was definitely a shocking piece of gossip.

No wonder, when he first saw the young master, he reflexively obeyed him. It wasn't him being obsequious; it was because he was genuinely the young master.

Third Young Master, your youth is gone.

Not only gone, but he also had a son. What about Miss Gu Ci? Wouldn't Third Young Master be driven to madness? Oh, they couldn't confront him directly or kill him, but he could only destroy himself!

The imminent arena of unknowns sent shivers down Li Jiang's spine.

After a long silence, Lu Zhiyuan said calmly, “Destroy it!”

He handed the appraisal report to Li Jiang, saying, “Keep this matter to yourself.”

“Yes! Third Master, there's no need to command me, and I dare not speak either. Third Young Master… Can 1 say something?”

Lu Zhiyuan looked at him with deep eyes.

A chill ran down Li Jiang's spine. “Yes, I understand.”

It was past four in the morning. Lu Zhiyuan headed to the hospital room. Gu Ci stood by Gu Ziyu's side, holding the little cold hand. Gu Ziyu lay on the hospital bed, looking very obedient.

His son!

In the hospital room, only a bedside lamp was on, casting dim light. When Lu Zhiyuan stood beside Gu Ci, shadows almost shrouded the mother and son, blocking the moonlight from outside the window.

“Your personalities are exactly the same, even your preferences.” Gu Ci chuckled lightly. “Lu Zhiyuan must be feeling suffocated, why should he resemble you?”

She could already imagine Lu Zhiyuan's explosive expression.

“Why?”

Gu Ci kissed her child's hand. “It's like a beautiful dream. One day, he descended from the heavens and came to my side. 1 don't know why, it's a gift from above.”

Lu Zhiyuan never believed in a higher power. This situation was strange. The answer was almost obvious. Gu Ci was reborn, and Gu Ziyu traversed worlds. She retained memories from a past life.

“He shouldn't have appeared!” Lu Zhiyuan's voice was cold.

Gu Ci looked up at him, dangerously narrowing her eyes. “What did you say?”

He knew she misunderstood him, but he had no intention of explaining. Gu Ci asked coolly, “Third Master, do you not feel any familiarity or warmth when you look at Ziyu?”

“No!” He firmly denied it, cutting off all her thoughts, even denying Ziyu's identity. “He is his son!”

In fact, the first time he saw Gu Ziyu, he felt a strong sense of familiarity.

Seeing the scars on his body by the pool, he even found it curious why he had so many wounds. He rarely felt curious about others. Once he felt curious, it meant he wanted to understand.

Gu Ci laughed at his indifferent attitude. “That's why I knew you were Black Hawk but kept it from Ziyu.”

Because he wouldn't acknowledge Ziyu!

Ziyu was a determined and stubborn child. If he knew, he would be devastated. “Third Master, if you don't love him, stay away from him. Don't let him know.”

Lu Zhiyuan wanted to ask Gu Ci about her past life, but she refused to communicate with him. He didn't recognize Ziyu, hurting Gu Ci in the process. Lu Zhiyuan looked at her stubborn figure and closed his eyes in despair.

He turned around, leaving this suffocating world behind.

Gu Ci followed him out, calling out in the hospital corridor. Lu Zhiyuan didn't turn back. Behind him, Gu Ci asked, “Third Master, no matter what happens, you won't acknowledge Ziyu, right?”

The anticipated answer didn't come. Gu Ci only saw his determined figure growing distant.

Gu Ci's eyes were slightly red. After all these years of madness, what had it all been for? In her reborn life, she wanted reunification, but her lover had severed their affection and refused to continue their connection.

When Ziyu woke up, the anesthesia had worn off, and the wound was a bit painful. Gu Ci felt heartache but couldn't take his place. Ziyu gazed at Gu Ci, his eyes turning slightly red.

“Baby, what's wrong? Is the wound hurting?”

Ziyu shook his head. In fact, every time Gu Ci called him “baby,” he felt happy. The truth was, he had long passed the age when he could be called that. “1 thought… 1 would never see Mom again. I thought I had gone back.”

A pang of fear struck Gu Ci. Gone back? When did Ziyu go back?

“Ziyu, you won't go anywhere. You'll be by Mom's side for your whole life.” She couldn't bear to let Ziyu go back to a world without her or Lu Zhiyuan.

“Okay, Ziyu won't go anywhere. I only want to be by Mom's side.”

His love and attachment to Gu Ci were much deeper than that of an ordinary son. With a touch of obsession, besides being intertwined in life and death, there was also regaining what had been lost. Someone who had experienced love was like clutching a life-saving piece of driftwood. They would rather die than let go.

“Did he die?”

Gu Ci knew who he was asking about. She wasn't clear about Lu Shijie's situation. The wound Ziyu had inflicted was quite deep. Before she could answer, Chen Liangdong arrived, accompanied by two police officers who were there to take statements.

“Baby, you've suffered.” Chen Liangdong patted Ziyu's head. Gu Ci adjusted the hospital bed to make him sit up against the pillow. Chen Liangdong was from the National Security Bureau, specially tasked with investigating the case of Gu Ziyu's kidnapping. He had carefully examined everything from their exit and the photographs to the video of Gu Ziyu's abduction.

Gu Ci was the first to give a statement, including her decision to leave Lu Zhiyuan and search for Gu Ziyu alone in the abandoned building. She recounted everything. They were supposed to give statements separately, but for some reason, Chen Liangdong had them do it together in the same hospital room. Gu Ci truthfully described how Gu Ziyu had stabbed Lu Shijie, using vague terms to describe the situation.

When it was Ziyu's turn to give his statement, it was simple. “When 1 woke up, the dagger was stuck in my waist. My sister and a few bodyguards were fighting. Lu Shijie was next to me, trying to hurt my sister. Worried, 1 pulled out the dagger and stabbed him in the waist.”

The dagger was covered in his blood and fingerprints. He couldn't deny it. Lu Shijie's fate was unknown. When he woke up, he would probably insist that Ziyu had stabbed him. It was better to be honest about it.

“Then how did you manage to escape?” the investigator asked. “Lu Shijie's bodyguards said you jumped off the building while holding Gu Ziyu?”

“Yes!” Gu Ci said. “At that time, Ziyu had already lost consciousness due to excessive bleeding. I didn't want to confront them, so I jumped off with Ziyu. Lu Zhiyuan and the bodyguards caught us below.”

When the investigators entered, Li Jiang had already smoothed things over. He had coordinated with Gu Ci earlier.

The investigator said, “According to our measurements, the abandoned building is on the eighth floor. You jumped off while holding the child and were caught by someone intact?”

Gu Ci nodded sincerely. “Yes, Lu Zhiyuan has incredible strength.”

The investigators were left speechless.

Miss Gu, the strength needed for that catch is inhuman..
