The important thing Li Xiwu could think of might be related to her father. Or perhaps it had something to do with her mother.
However, she did not expect that the important matter that Old Master Cai had specially come to talk to her about was actually related to Gu Lanshi.
âMissy, Iâll apologize to you here for what happened last time.â Cai Buquâs expression was solemn.
Li Xiwu asked, âWhat happened last time?â
âLast time, I shouldnât have listened to Mr. Gu and almost let him hurt you.â Cai Buquâs tone was very guilty. âSo after he came to look for me this time, I came to look for you immediately.â
Li Xiwu pursed her lips. âThen what did Gu Lanshi tell you this time?â
Cai Buqu did not answer. Instead, he asked first, âMissy, may I ask if you still remember what happened between you and Mr. Gu in Country T back then?â
This question was indeed presumptuous. Li Xiwu didnât know how to answer for a moment. She thought for a few seconds and asked, âWhy donât you tell me what Gu Lanshi said to you this time?â
She wanted to confirm if Gu Lanshi was up to something again.
âAlright.â Cai Buqu looked at Li Xiwu steadily and slowly replied, âMr. Gu didnât say anything, but this time, he brought a little girl.â
Hearing this, Li Xiwuâs eyebrows twitched. âLittle girl?â
Cai Buqu said, âThe little girl is a little more than four years old. Iâm not sure about the exact four years and months.â
Because when he asked, Youyou only said that she was four years old. Cai Buqu regretted it a little. He should have chased after her and asked clearly. That way, he could have conveyed the information to Missy completely.
Li Xiwu asked in confusion, âThen what does this little girl have to do with me? Or rather, whatâs Gu Lanshiâs relationship with this little girl?â
Cai Buqu said simply, âThat little girl called Mr. Gu⦠Daddy.â
Li Xiwu was dumbfounded.
âAre you saying that Gu Lanshi had a four-year-old daughter?â Li Xiwu was worried that she had misheard, so she asked again with uncertainty.
Cai Buqu nodded and replied, âYes.â
The shock on Li Xiwuâs face faded and slowly became the expression of a bystander. âIn other words, Gu Lanshi is already married, and he has always been in a secret marriage.â
Because he could only be in a secret marriage state, Gu Lanshi could convince his mother to participate in the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law show. Otherwise, if the netizens found out that he was already married, the show would definitely change people.
Cai Buquâs expression was even more solemn than before. âIâm not sure if heâs married, but his daughter is indeed more than four years old.â
After hearing this, other than the shock from before, Li Xiwu was also a little puzzled. âThen what does this matter have to do with me?â
Otherwise, Old Master Cai would not have specially rushed over just to tell her that Gu Lanshi had a daughter. There had to be something else.
However, Li Xiwu never expected this to happen to her.
Old Master Cai was indeed not finished. He looked at Li Xiwu with a complicated expression. His mouth opened, but he hesitated.
Li Xiwu could tell. âGo ahead.â
Cai Buqu said seriously, âThat little girl is at least 60% similar to you when you were young, Missy.â
Li Xiwu was stunned. âWh-what?â
Cai Buqu repeated what he had just said. âMr. Guâs four-year-old daughter is at least 60% similar to you when you were young.â
The next second, Li Xiwu suddenly stood up.
Earlier, she had a look of disbelief and shock because she found out that Gu Lanshi already had a four-year-old daughter. But she immediately found out that Gu Lanshiâs daughter had some possible relationship with her.
Cai Buqu also stood up and advised solemnly, âMissy, calm down first. As long as thereâs no direct scientific evidence, that little girl has nothing to do with you at the moment.â
Li Xiwu lowered her eyes and took a deep breath. She turned to Old Master Cai. âDo you have a photo of the little girl?â
âNo.â Cai Buqu shook his head.
At that time, he only wanted to come and see Missy as soon as possible. He didnât have time to think about anything else.
âOh, right.â Cai Buqu looked at Li Xiwu. âMissy, that little girlâs name is
Youyou.â
Li Xiwu suddenly looked up and turned to look at Old Master Cai. ââ¦You, You?â
Seeing that Missyâs reaction when she heard this name was even greater than when she found out that the little girl looked like her, Cai Buqu guessed, âHas Missy already come into contact with a little girl called Youyou?â
Li Xiwu was speechless. âIâ¦â
Cai Buqu did not see the live-stream on the pleasure boat. He had been watching the live-stream since night time, so he missed Youyouâs earliest appearance.
Li Xiwuâs expression became more and more solemn.
Youyou..
The first thing she thought of was the little girl she had seen on the pleasure boat that day. Her name was also Youyou. She said she liked grapefruit cake. That day, because the grapefruit cake was gone, she gave her a strawberry cake.
She had a deep impression.
When she returned, she mentioned Youyou, who had given her a cupcake after only meeting her once, in front of Pei Jingzhou many times.
âMissy?â Cai Buqu shouted worriedly.
Li Xiwu came back to her senses and saw Old Master Cai looking at her worriedly. She shook her head. âIâm fine.â
Cai Buqu said worriedly, âYou donât look too good.â
âI just⦠thought of somethingâ¦â Li Xiwu pursed her lips. âIf Iâm not wrong, Gu Lanshi probably brought that little girl to see me. Itâs just that I didnât know at that timeâ¦â
Cai Buqu was surprised. âYouâve already met?â
Li Xiwu frowned. âIâm not very sure either, because I didnât know who she was at that time and didnât see her parents. But now that I think about it, if Gu Lanshiâs daughter is Youyou, who I saw on the pleasure boat that day, then the man who hasnât shown his face in the pleasure boat should be Gu Lanshi.â Of course, this was only a guess.
When she first met Youyou on the pleasure boat, she only felt that they were fated. The first time they met, she learned how to call her Mom according to the Internet. She even gave her a cake.
From the looks of it, the first time they met on the pleasure boat did not seem to be a coincidence.
âMissy, do you remember what happened between you and Mr. Gu in the past?â Cai Buqu asked.
Li Xiwu shook her head. âI donât remember.â
Cai Buqu was puzzled. âYou admitted your identity during the live-stream that nightâ¦â
Li Xiwu said, âAlthough I donât completely remember the past, I already know that Iâm Li You and know many things related to my background.â
Cai Buqu nodded. âI see.â
Li Xiwu pursed her lips and remained silent.
âItâs time for me to go back.â Cai Buqu looked at Li Xiwu and said, âI donât know when weâll meet next. If Missy wants to come back, thereâs no need to contact me in advance. Just come back directly. Iâve been guarding the Li Mansion.â
Li Xiwu nodded. âOkay..â
