Chapter 335 I Am Her Father!

Du Xiaoxian pulled Du Niannian and ran away.

After all, Du Niannian was still a child. After running for a while, she could not run anymore. Du Xiaoxian had no choice but to carry Du Niannian and run. Du Xiaoxian had been good at running since she was a child. But now, she had a school bag on her back and was carrying a child. She could not bear the burden and was panting.

Du Niannian wrapped her arms around her mother’s neck and looked back. Gu Nianbin stood there motionless. As the distance between them increased, he gradually turned into a blurred shadow. Then Du Niannian shouted, “Mom, mom, don’t run. The bad guy didn’t follow us.”

Du Xiaoxian turned around to take a look. Sure enough, Gu Nianbin was nowhere to be seen. Only then did she put Du Niannian down. With her hands on her waist, she panted heavily.

Du Niannian asked as she stood on tiptoe to pat her mother on the back, “Mom, who is that uncle? Is he a bad person?”

After resting for a while, Du Xiaoxian held Du Niannian’s hand and hurriedly walked forward. “He is not a bad person. But you should stay away from him when you see him, and you can’t go with him. Do you understand?”

“I surely won’t go with him,” Du Niannian said in an adult tone, “I don’t know him. If he wants to take me away, I’ll ask the police to arrest him.”

Du Xiaoxian touched Du Niannian’s head with relief, but her heart was not at ease. Gu Nianbin finally came. He knew the child’s name. What else did he know? What was he trying to do? Was he really going to take her child away?

When she returned home, she still felt uneasy. Du Huayue was on the night shift today and would not return until tomorrow morning. She had no one to consult. What should she do? She washed the rice and put it into a rice cooker, but she forgot to plug in the power cord. She put a pan on the stove but forgot to add oil to it. The pan was heated to smoke. She quickly turned off the stove and plugged in the rice cooker. She took two deep breaths and told herself to calm down. Then she called Lu Haochen. Hearing the gentle and sweet voice of the man on the other end of the line, she finally felt a little relieved, because Lu Haochen said that he would come over soon.

She whisked the eggs, put the cut tomatoes on a plate, and washed the vegetables. Just as she was about to steam the fish, she heard someone knocking on the door. She did not expect Lu Haochen to come so quickly. She hurriedly ran out to open the door.

However, Gu Nianbin was standing outside the door. She took a step back in shock and her lips trembled. “You, how did you come here?” He clearly didn’t follow her, did he?

Gu Nianbin stepped in expressionlessly and closed the door. “Where is the child?”

Du Xiaoxian wanted to stop him. But looking at the cold gaze of the man, she was terrified and could only retreat step by step. Du Niannian thought that Lu Haochen had come and quickly ran out of the room. As soon as she said “Dad”, she was stunned. The person standing in the living room was the man who had just stopped them at the gate of the kindergarten!

Seeing her mother standing there in panic, she bravely stepped forward and fiercely shouted at Gu Nianbin, “Who are you? Why did you come to my house? Hurry up and get out!”

Gu Nianbin frowned and looked at her.

“Are you still not leaving?” Du Niannian looked around, picked up the broom by the wall, and pounced on him, “Hurry up and get out, get out!”

Gu Nianbin grabbed the broom and looked at Du Xiaoxian. “Is this how you taught her?”

When Du Niannian saw that her weapon had been taken away, she crawled into the bottom of the tea table and took out a pair of scissors from the workbox. She said to Gu Nianbin, “If you don’t leave, I will poke you!”

Gu Nianbin’s eyes suddenly turned cold. He grabbed her wrist and snatched the scissors. His tone was stern. “Didn’t your mother tell you not to play with scissors?”

Du Niannian felt that the man’s hand was like an iron clamp, almost breaking her wrist. She was like an irritable little lion, punching and kicking Gu Nianbin, “You bastard, let go of me quickly, let me go!”

Du Xiaoxian stepped forward and begged Gu Nianbin. “Please let go of her! You’re hurting her.”

Gu Nianbin ignored her and just stared at Du Niannian. There was no emotion on his face. In the end, he let go of her.

Du Xiaoxian quickly pulled Du Niannian to her side. “Niannian, go back to the bedroom.”

Du Niannian raised her head, and her face was full of unwillingness. “No, I want to stay here to protect you!”

“Come on, be good. Go back to the bedroom.” Du Xiaoxian was afraid that Gu Nianbin would say something inappropriate in front of the child, so she pushed Du Niannian into the room. “Don’t worry, he is not a bad person. He won’t do anything to me. He will leave after a few words with me.”

Du Niannian looked at her and then at Gu Nianbin. She was a little suspicious.

Gu Nianbin ignored them and placed the scissors under the tea table before sitting down on the sofa.

Du Niannian was still a little worried when her mother pushed her to the door. She stretched her neck and looked at Gu Nianbin again, whispering, “Mom, if he dares to bully you, just call me.”

“He won’t,” Du Xiaoxian comforted her. “Stay in the room. I will call you out after talking to him.”

Du Niannian nodded and closed the door. Du Xiaoxian stood by the door and composed herself. What must be must be. It was inevitable. For Niannian, she had to face it bravely.

She made a cup of tea in the kitchen and placed it in front of Gu Nianbin. Then, she sat on a chair a little further away from him. She lowered her head and said softly, “You made a mistake. Niannian is not your child.”

Gu Nianbin raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a judgmental gaze. “Did I say that she was my child? You are in such a hurry to clear your name. You protest your innocence too much.”

Du Xiaoxian bit her lips and did not dare to speak again. She knew that she was indeed a little anxious. Perhaps Gu Nianbin was not like what she thought. She shouldn’t be flustered before he spoke.

But as soon as she heard what the man said, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and all the blood in her body seemed to be frozen.

He said, “It’s useless even if you don’t admit it. I’ve already investigated it thoroughly. This child is mine. Her name is Du Niannian. She was born at four o’clock in the afternoon on November 15th, 2011. Type O blood. She studied at the Cuckoo Art Kindergarten. She will be five years old next month. Am I right?”

Du Xiaoxian was flabbergasted. He actually knew so much about the child!

“Even so, how can you prove that she is your child?” Du Xiaoxian insisted.

Gu Nianbin took out a piece of paper from his pocket and threw it on the tea table. “This is her birth certificate. It clearly stated that she was born in full-term delivery. When you left me, you had been pregnant for more than two months. Am I right?”

“She is not your child.” Du Xiaoxian could only refuse to admit it.

Gu Nianbin’s eyes turned cold and his tone became aggressive. “What evidence do you have to prove that she is not my child?”

“I,” Du Xiaoxian rubbed her hands in panic. How could she find evidence in such a short time?

“You have nothing to say, right?”

“No,” Du Xiaoxian suddenly blushed and her voice became even softer. “We, how can we have a child? Didn’t we always use…” Although she was shy, she still said it bravely. Now, this was the only evidence she could think of.

Gu Nianbin knew what she meant and smiled coldly. “You are right. We should not have had a child. But you should know how we had her. Do you want me to remind you? On the yacht…”

Du Xiaoxian’s expression changed. She thought that he had forgotten it. It turned out that he remembered everything. Only at that time, they did not take any contraceptive measures. At that time, she did not pay attention to it. She even did not know it when she had been pregnant for more than a month! Otherwise, she would not have entered Du Huayue’s room that night.

“What else do you have to say now?” Gu Nianbin coldly stared at her.

“You, what do you want?” Du Xiaoxian looked at him pitifully.

“Take her away.” Gu Nianbin looked around the room. “My daughter can’t live in this kind of place. I want to bring her back and raise her well.”

“No, you can’t take her away,” As the thing that she had been worried about for so long finally turned into reality, Du Xiaoxian became agitated. “She is not your child, not yours.”

“Whose child is she?”

“She’s Brother Ah Yue’s.”

“Du Xiaoxian,” Gu Nianbin sneered, “Are you so confident and natural now when you lie through your teeth?”

Right now, there was nothing more important than Du Niannian in Du Xiaoxian’s heart. Even if she had to risk her life to keep her daughter by her side, she would do it, let alone lie through her teeth.

“Anyway, she is not your child,” She insisted, “You can’t take her away.”

“I am her father. I must take her away.” Gu Nianbin’s expression was firm.

“I am her father.” Someone stood at the door and said in a clear voice.

As if she had seen a reinforcement, Du Xiaoxian hurriedly walked towards Lu Haochen. “Haochen, he, he wants to take Niannian away.”

“Don’t worry, I’m here.” Lu Haochen came up to her and gently embraced her. “I won’t let him take Niannian away.”

Gu Nianbin sneered, “You are a loving couple. Since that’s the case, why don’t you give birth to one yourself? I’ll take my daughter away so that she won’t be a hindrance to you.”

“Niannian is my daughter,” Lu Haochen looked at him in a commanding manner. “Xiaoxian and I are going to get married soon. If we get married, she will be my stepdaughter. She will stay with us all the time.”

“That’s impossible,” Gu Nianbin’s cold gaze fell on Du Xiaoxian’s face. “If you insist on this, I will let my lawyer talk to you. It won’t be good for the child if we go to court, right?”

“Don’t scare me. It’s just a lawsuit!” Lu Haochen said indifferently, “We will fight against you to the end. Niannian has never left Xiaoxian since she was a child. She has no feelings for you. The only thing you can give her is a good life. I can do it, too. Do you think you have the chance of winning this lawsuit?”

“In that case, let’s wait and see!” Gu Nianbin stood up and glanced at Du Xiaoxian who was trembling slightly in Lu Haochen’s arms. The corners of his mouth raised as if he was disdainful.

Just as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Du Niannian’s clear voice, “Dad!”

He suddenly turned around and saw Du Niannian happily jump into Lu Haochen’s arms. She kissed his face and said in a spoiled manner, “Dad, why did you come back so late? You’re always busy with work and you almost forget about Mom and me.”

“How could that be?” Lu Haochen also kissed the child and picked her up. “You and your mom will always be the most important persons in my heart. How can I leave you behind?”

“Dad, a bad guy came to our house just now and bullied Mom and me. He even pinched my hand. It hurts.” Du Niannian raised her wrist to show it to Lu Haochen. “Look, there are still red marks.”

“Come, let me blow my breath on it,” Lu Haochen gently blew air on Du Niannian’s slender wrist. “It won’t hurt if I do this.”

Du Niannian suddenly glanced at Gu Nianbin who was still standing at the door and screamed, “Dad, it’s him. That is the bad guy!”

Looking at Du Niannian’s hostile gaze, Gu Nianbin instinctively closed the door and ran downstairs. He did not understand why he was so afraid that he ran away at this moment. The person who was afraid should be Du Xiaoxian, right?
