Chapter 270 Tell the truth
He Yi simply carried her to the bed, reached out and gently wiped away the tears on her face, and said tenderly, "I'm sorry."
"Apologize for what? Apologize for the promises you made to me so casually? Apologize for all the hurt you've caused me?" Gu Zhiyao asked tearfully.
He Yi hesitated for a moment, then said, "I can't explain things between Zheng Yuanxi and me to you right now. You don't need to worry about it. If you want to see Chenchen, come back to China. Don't worry, I won't have any conditions. I won't make you accompany me...do that kind of thing again. Whenever you want to see Chenchen, I will arrange it for you. Gu Zhiyao, this is the most I can do for you right now. Stop being stubborn and fighting with me, okay? The mayor's job is not suitable for you. Resign and come back to where we are."
Gu Zhiyao pursed her lips and did not respond to his words. After a while, she changed the subject, "When I gave birth to Chenchen, I was really framed. The murderer was Zheng Yuanxi."
He Yijian frowned slightly. "I sent people to investigate what happened back then, but they couldn't find any concrete evidence, which means it was just an accident."
Accident?
Gu Zhiyao felt a sorrowful laugh in her heart again, and her eyes dimmed inch by inch.
She completely stopped crying, stopped speaking, and didn't even want to look at him.
He Yi's gaze remained fixed on her. He dealt with a message on his phone a little later, then continued watching her until around midnight before leaving.
Gu Zhiyao returned to the quiet space, her mind racing with thoughts. She had told him so much tonight, partly because the scene reminded her of painful memories, and partly because she wanted to use these things to evoke his guilt.
Although he still defended Zheng Yuanxi, he was also moved. So, when she tells the truth to the old lady of the He family tomorrow, will he not be so furious?
Also, he should be able to bring Chenchen over as scheduled tomorrow.
Gu Zhiyao didn't sleep well that night, only getting a few hours of sleep intermittently. The next morning at nine o'clock, the doorbell rang.
Chenchen is here!
The person responsible for bringing Chenchen here was Quan Xinyu.
"President He has a breakfast appointment today, so he asked me to bring Chenchen over," Quan Xinyu explained.
Gu Zhiyao didn't care who gave it to her; perhaps it would be better if Quan Xinyu did. She thanked Quan Xinyu.
Quan Xinyu left.
Gu Zhiyao's attention returned to her son. Looking at the handsome and charming little guy, who was already very attractive despite his young age, she hugged him without saying a word.
The little one quietly let her hold him until she let go on her own.
"Auntie will take you to the amusement park." Gu Zhiyao took the little one's hand and left the hotel.
I arrived at the place I had arranged to meet the old lady.
With an hour to go before their meeting, Gu Zhiyao took Chenchen to the nearby amusement park first. When the old lady arrived, she would witness this heartwarming and joyful scene.
The old lady recognized Chenchen and stared in disbelief.
Gu Zhiyao also looked at the old lady and led Chenchen over.
Chenchen quickly ran to the old lady and asked in surprise, "Great-Grandma, what brings you here?"
The old lady regained her senses, took Chenchen's hand, and said to Gu Zhiyao, "Ayao, how do you know Chenchen? You two..."
"Dad said that Aunt Gu took care of me when I was just born, and he wants me to remember Aunt Gu's kindness. It's a good opportunity for Aunt Gu to come back to China during this time so that I can spend some time with her!" Chenchen said.
The old lady was even more surprised and curious. How come she didn't know about this? She doted on her first great-grandson and would often come to see the little guy every few days. Although there were nannies and postpartum caregivers, she didn't pay much attention. But Ah Yao didn't look like one of those nannies or postpartum caregivers at all.
Gu Zhiyao met the old lady's puzzled gaze with a smile and nodded.
Seeing this, the old lady didn't think much of it and was actually quite happy. This meant that everyone's relationship could become even closer. The old lady said in a good mood, "Ayao, do you know, when I watched you and Chenchen playing just now, you were just like a mother and son!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiyao felt a surge of joy. This was exactly the effect she wanted. It seemed that everything was proceeding according to her plan.
She couldn't wait to move on to the next stage, so she let Chenchen continue playing at the amusement park. She and the old lady sat down next to each other, and she looked at the old lady and suddenly said, "Grandma Gu, the reason I invited you here today is to tell you something."
"Oh, please go ahead and tell me," the old lady said with a smile.
“Actually, I am not Chenchen’s nanny, but Chenchen’s biological mother.” Gu Zhiyao said clearly, her gaze fixed on the old lady.
Sure enough, the old lady's expression changed drastically. "What did you say? Ayao, are you serious? Chenchen is your biological child? But why did Chenchen become Ayi's child? Could it be that they switched babies at the hospital back then? But that can't be right. That was our hospital, and we are very careful. There's no way such an accident could have happened."
“There was no mix-up. Chenchen is indeed He Yi’s son, but he came from my womb and has nothing to do with Zheng Yuanxi. Zheng Yuanxi is infertile, so she instigated He Yi to make me have a child for them. Actually, I’ve always been in contact with He Yi. He Yi often comes to see me… to do that kind of thing. After he confirmed that his IVF with Zheng Yuanxi had failed, he simply decided to have me have a child for them. In fact, I had already been pregnant with a child before Chenchen…”
But Zheng Yuanxi and Wen Ya messed with me and caused me to lose the baby. At the time, I was thinking of escaping with the child, but they caught up with me on the way and forced me to take abortion pills. The baby was lost on the road. Chenchen was my second child. I thought it was compensation from Brother He Yi, but who knew that he was actually using my uterus to have children for them. Gu Zhiyao choked up as she finished speaking.
The old lady was stunned.
How could my proud grandson do such a thing?
What kind of relationship do Ayao and Ayi have?
Ah Yi loves Zheng Yuanxi the most, so why is he keeping another woman outside? Even if Zheng Yuanxi's physical problems can't satisfy him, given his personality, he wouldn't go out and mess around.
Gu Zhiyao continued to recount the entire story of her relationship with He Yi. She started with the fire 18 years ago, continuing until now, including the times He Yi had forcibly taken advantage of her!
The old lady found it even more unbelievable. She stared intently at Gu Zhiyao, her voice trembling, and asked, "Zhiyao, is everything you're saying true? Are you sure you're not lying to me? Are you sure you're not making it up?"
"Grandma He, everything I said is absolutely true. If there is even the slightest falsehood, I am willing to accept any punishment from God!"
The old woman stared at her resolute yet sorrowful expression, her body trembling uncontrollably. Suddenly, her eyes widened, and with a thud, she fainted.
Gu Zhiyao was also stunned and quickly helped her up, "Grandma He, what's wrong? Please wake up."
But the old lady didn't react at all.
