Chapter 639: Chapter 640: Can You Call Me Dad?

Xia Yangyang, faced with Gu Zhaohan, felt completely powerless.

What she had to say, she had already said countless times.

The one thing Gu Zhaohan has in common with Gu Qichen is

his near-obsessive stubbornness.

And these geniuses seem to believe they possess the power to change the reality.

Xia Yangyang didn’t want to say more.

Xia Yangyang started, “I will return to the United States as soon as possible.”

As soon as Xia Yangyang finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Xia Yangyang went to Gu Qichen’s bedroom.

The bedroom door was open.

Gu Qichen was inside.

Xia Ye was sitting on the sofa and chatting with Gu Qichen.

“People say you’re my dad.” Xia Ye said.

Gu Qichen said calmly, “Yes, I’m your biological father.”

“My mom said that I don’t have a dad.”

“That’s because your mom didn’t tell you the truth. Every child has a father and a mother.”

“I know that, but I thought you guys were divorced.”

Gu Qichen was silent for a while before saying, “Yes, we are divorced.”

Xia Ye’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “Why did you divorce? Don’t you love my mom?”

A hint of pain flashed in Gu Qichen’s eyes, “You’re still young, you don’t know that in this world, two people in love can’t always be together. There are many things mandating that your mother and I can’t be together.”

Xia Yangyang did not expect Gu Qichen would speak from her perspective.

In front of their child, he did not blame their separation on her.

But it was clear that he hated her.

An unspeakable bitterness surfaced in Xia Yangyang’s heart.

Xia Ye was a little confused, “Maybe I don’t understand the feelings of adults yet, but will you guys get back together in the future?”

Gu Qichen stroked Xia Ye’s hair, “Yes, I promise, you will have a complete family.”

It seemed Xia Ye was deep in thought and responded with a simple, “Okay.”

The room fell into a calm silence.

Suddenly, Gu Qichen asked, “Can you call me dad?”

Xia Ye looked at Gu Qichen, his voice cold, “Sorry, I must get my mom’s permission.”

Gu Qichen helplessly replied, “Okay, then you can call me Uncle Gu.”

Xia Yangyang couldn’t bear to hear any more.

She continued standing at the doorway, fearing she might soften up.

Xia Yangyang finally walked in, “Summer, it’s time for us to leave.”

Xia Ye stood up from the sofa, “Mom, you’re back.”

Xia Ye glanced at Gu Qichen, said nothing, asked no questions.

Gu Qichen also stood up, “Xia Ye can’t leave with you.”

“Gu Qichen, I don’t want to argue with you in front of the child. You said that as long as I return to the Gu family with you, things would be concluded. I have returned with you, so I hope you’ll keep your promise.”

Gu Qichen’s complexion darkened, but he fell silent.

He had not expected Gu Zhaohan to suddenly return and interfere.

Actually, he had clearly sensed, the old man’s attitude wasn’t as rigid as before.

Gu Qichen was confident that he could persuade the old man.

Everything was ruined by Gu Zhaohan.

Even if he persuaded the old man, what about it?

Her heart was as hard as a rock.

Not to mention the issue between her and Xiaohan…

At this time, Gu Zhaohan also walked in.

Gu Zhaohan said to Xia Yangyang, “For now, let Xia Ye stay here. A new drug has been developed for this research, I have brought it back. Starting today, Xia Ye will take it, but I need to observe the effects.”

Xia Yangyang had absolute faith in Gu Zhaohan’s diagnosis of Xia Ye’s condition.

Leaving Xia Ye in the care of Gu Zhaohan, Xia Yangyang was completely reassured.

Moreover, now that Xia Ye’s identity had been revealed, there was no point in continuing to hide and deny.

Plus, Xia Yangyang had things to attend to.

Before returning to the United States, she had to find that remittance slip.

Perhaps she might have to visit Beijing once again for Liu Ruyan.

And for Gu Mingzhu, she needed to find an opportunity.

Xia Ye’s presence at the Gu’s residence provided just that.
