Chapter 162: Chapter 162: His Daughter (1)

Cheng Qi said goodbye to Gu Chu and returned to the capital.

Gu Manxi held Gu Chu’s little hand and watched Cheng Qi leave. Gu Manxi couldn’t help but exclaim, “The young master of the Cheng family is really a good person. He has helped our family too much. He doesn’t seem to be quite the same as the rumors say.”

Gu Chu thought to herself, Mommy, this kid is obviously trying to woo you. Can’t you see that it’s so obvious?

The mother and daughter returned to Hengdian film and television base.

“Mommy, can I have supper tonight?” Gu Chu licked the corner of her mouth and transformed into a little greedy kitten. “On the way here, Brother Cheng Qi said that Hengdian has a lot of snacks.”

Gu Manxi lightly tapped Gu Chu’s little nose bridge. “Okay, but don’t eat too much.”

“Yes, yes.”

However, Gu Manxi didn’t expect that Cao Yuezhi, who happened to pass by, would see the scene between her and Gu Chu.

“Auntie, is Gu Chu the daughter of that beautiful auntie?” A look of envy appeared on Mengmeng’s small face. “Gu Chu’s mother is so beautiful. She’s like a rose.”

Cao Yuezhi narrowed her eyes.

She happened to pass by and heard Gu Chu call Gu Manxi “Mommy”?

Mommy?

When did Gu Manxi become a mother? She seemed to be only 24 years old this year…

An extremely bold and unbelievable thought surged into Cao Yuezhi’s mind. Could it be that Gu Manxi had mysteriously left the entertainment circle because she was pregnant?

Back then, Gu Manxi had used the alias “Gu Ruoxi”. Lu Shanhe had taken a liking to her the moment she entered the entertainment circle. She was at the peak of her career. However, not long after she became famous, Gu Manxi gradually faded out of the entertainment circle and eventually disappeared without a trace. Cao Yuezhi took this opportunity to rise to fame and quickly became famous.

“Pregnancy… and giving birth before marriage…” Cao Yuezhi sneered. This Gu Manxi was really not simple. If the child was exposed, how much negative news would it bring?

Cao Yuezhi had her own personal studio. As long as Cao Yuezhi gave the order, a batch of marketing numbers would immediately secretly expose the scandal of Gu Manxi having a daughter.

“Now, I finally have something I can hold against you,” Cao Yuezhi muttered to herself. Suddenly, a memory flashed into her mind.

Wait —

Cao Yuezhi remembered where she had seen Gu Chu recently! A few days ago, her best friend Cheng Qingyun sent her a photo of Gu Chu, asking her to check Gu Chu’s identity privately through her connections.

“Strange, why is Qingyun checking Gu Chu’s identity?” Cao Yuezhi felt strange, so she sent a text to Cheng Qingyun and left with her niece.

…

As for Cheng Qingyun, she was still pretending to be sick in the hospital.

Doctor Li checked the hospital’s patient information and was surprised to find that all the personal information about the little girl was deemed confidential.

Even the director was not allowed to look at Gu Chu’s medical records without the permission of the higher-ups.

“You said you can’t look at the little girl’s information?” On the bed, Cheng Qingyun put down her chopsticks and could not believe her ears. “Could it be that she’s some big shot and the hospital has to keep it a secret? What a joke.”

This was the Cheng family’s private hospital and it had the best medical standards in the country. Doctor Li was also a director in the hospital, and his authority was high. It was not a problem for him to check the private medical records of some rich people, so why couldn’t he check Gu Chu’s medical records?

Doctor Li pushed up his glasses and said, “The director said that this was arranged by Young Master Cheng Qi.”

Cheng Qingyun instantly lost her voice.

Her fingers trembled slightly. Every time she heard the word “Cheng Qi”, she always felt an indescribable fear in her heart. She clearly remembered the scene she saw from afar when she passed by the special ICU last year…
