Chapter 1736: Gain From Loss

Gu Nianzhi slowed down and leaned her back against the wall of the laboratory, muttering to herself.

Ever since she had met Huo Shaoheng, he had told her about the other world. After she had disappeared, Huo Shaoheng had found something that he had never thought possible.

For example, he had found Little Nianzhi’s body, he had found He Zhichu’s and He Chengjian’s graves and bones. He had thought he had solved a mystery, but he had not expected there to be a bigger one waiting for him.

Huo Shaoheng had once said, half joking and half rejoicing, that if it hadn’t been for He Chengjian warning him not to go to the other world, he wouldn’t have been completely sure that Gu Nianzhi was here.

It wasn’t until He Chengjian had used the video to shock them that Huo Shaoheng was certain that Gu Nianzhi had come from the other world.

Gu Nianzhi was touched, but she also remembered how Gu Yanran had taken her place after little Gu Nianzhi’s death, which was very similar to Wen Shouyi’s situation..

She had never seen Wen Shouyi’s counterpart in the other world, and she had never seen Gu Yanran’s counterpart in this world either, so she subconsciously wondered if there was some unknown correspondence between the two.

Gu Yanran was a Japanese disguised as a huaxia person, but what about Wen Shouyi?

Could it be the same?

Therefore, she specifically asked this question, hoping to prove her guess from Lu Jin.

The result was actually different from what she had expected.

In that case, Wen Shouyi could not be compared to Gu Yanran.

Wen Shouyi was not so lucky that Gu Yanran could kill Little Nianzhi and replace her identity and status

Right then, Gu Nianzhi let out a long sigh and said to Lu Jin, “Wen Shouyi is very proud. She has always been unwilling to be the gardener’s daughter, so she tried her best to climb up the ladder. Does she know that she was adopted?”

“She doesn’t know that.” Lu Jin shook his head. “Even He Zhichu and He Chengjian don’t know about this.”

He smiled slyly, as if this was a secret between him and Qin Suwen.

“How could she not know?” Gu Nianzhi asked in disbelief. “Didn’t you say that you examined them specifically and confirmed that they were infertile? Didn’t their neighbors, colleagues, and friends know about this?”

“Of course not.” Lu Jin glared at Gu Nianzhi. “I only told you because you’re my daughter. Why would I tell others about this? This is the patient’s privacy! Do you hear that!”

“But Mrs. He knows…” Gu Nianzhi glanced at Lu Jin.

“Mrs. He is the one who took the initiative to help them. What does it matter if she knows?” Lu Jin waved his hand dismissively. “She’s better at keeping secrets than I am. Look, she didn’t even tell her son or husband.”

“Is infertility embarrassing?” Gu Nianzhi couldn’t understand.

“I don’t think it’s embarrassing.” Lu Jin shook his head. “But after Liang Meili found out about her condition, she was so desperate that she almost jumped off a building to commit suicide.”

“Later, Mrs. He gave them a year off and told them to go treat their illness. A year later, they came back with a newborn baby girl in their arms. They said that they had found a good doctor, and that they were finally cured and had a baby.” Lu Jin laughed while winking at her. “No one suspected it at the time because that baby girl really looked like Wen Dayou.”

Gu Nianzhi recalled a facial recognition system she had done before. She had used that system to compare the looks of Wen Shouyi and Luo Piaopiao, and had concluded that there was an 87% chance that they were relatives.

Furthermore, from the looks of it, Wen Dayou was tall and strong. His forehead was narrow, his nose was flat, his nostrils were wide and his nostrils were big.

Liang Meili’s nose was straight and straight, and her nostrils were very small.

Their daughter, Wen Shouyi, also had a flat nose. Her nose was slightly wider, and her nose was slightly upturned, but her overall shape was still very small.

So all in all, she indeed looked more like Wen Dayou.

Moreover, through the comparison of the bridge of the nose, at that time, she felt that Wen Shouyi did not seem to be the biological daughter of Wen Dayou and Liang Meili.

However, at that time, she still did not know that Wen Shouyi was adopted.

“So this secret is only known to you, Mrs. He, Wen Dayou, Liang Meili, and…” Gu Nianzhi paused. “The Qin orphanage knows.”

“Yes. and Qin Yaoguang knows as well.” Lu Jin replied lightly, “Because Wen Dayou and Liang Meili came to her clinic to be diagnosed. Although I was the one who made the diagnosis, Qin Yaoguang and I were lab partners at the time. Our medical records were interchangeable.”

In response, Gu Nianzhi chuckled. “No wonder… Although I hate Qin yaoguang, I still have to give her two thumbs up for this. She actually didn’t mention that Wen Shouyi was adopted.”

Because Qin Yaoguang had always maintained the image of a straightforward female scientist, the probability of her spouting nonsense was very high.

However, she had kept her mouth shut all these years. She had interacted with Wen Shouyi so many times, but she had not revealed a single word.

This was really something that Qin Yaoguang could not say.

Gu Nianzhi clicked her tongue in praise and said, “It shows that she really dotes on Wen Shouyi.”

Lu Jin’s heart skipped a beat. Glancing at her, he asked tentatively, “Nianzhi, you actually want a mother who loves you very much, don’t you?”

“Why wouldn’t I Want One?” Gu Nianzhi giggled. “But I won’t force it. I have the best father in the world, so it’s okay if I’m lacking in mother-daughter relationships. I’ll only gain something if I lose something!”

The Optimist thought about what he had obtained, so even if he saw a dark cloud, he would pay attention to the golden border on the cloud.

The pessimist thought about what he had lost, so even if he saw a flower in full bloom, he would think about how the flowers were always good and the Moon was always round.

Gu Nianzhi was a very optimistic girl.

Lu Jin stroked her head, and there was a hint of pity in his voice. “I’m sorry, Dad. I’ll make it up to you.”

“Make it up to what? Can you make it up to a Mommy?” Gu nianzhi tugged at Lu Jin’s sleeve with a cheeky smile. “Dad, you’re still young. Can you find me another Mommy?”

“Find another one? Aren’t you afraid of being abused by your stepmother?” Lu Jin teased Gu Nianzhi and pulled her to sit on the postmodern ergonomic chair in the lab.

“Which stepmother can abuse me? Can they be more ruthless than Qin Yaoguang?” Gu Nianzhi pointed at her own nose and teased, “Those who escape from the hands of a snake like Qin yaoguang have nothing to fear!”

Lu Jin stared blankly at the dainty and agile Gu Nianzhi. He felt sorrowful and gratified at the fact that Gu Nianzhi had turned a painful experience into a few jokes.

He had done many wrong things in his life, but he did not regret giving birth to Gu Nianzhi or sending her away.

Lu Jin felt a lump in his throat. He quickly lowered his head and turned on the massage switch on the chair for her, he nagged to change the topic, “It’s not good for your spine to always sit in front of the computer with your head lowered. Next time, move this chair to your apartment. I made it specially for you. It comes with a massage function to lose weight.”

Gu Nianzhi intended to say that she was still young and didn’t need a massage chair, but when she heard that it also had a massage function to lose weight she immediately laid down comfortably and enjoyed the service of the ergonomic chair.

“Dad, are you really not going to consider finding another one?” Gu Nianzhi was actually very curious as to why Lu Jin had given birth to her with Qin yaoguang, but she was also worried that it would be a sad matter for Lu Jin, so no matter how curious she was, she wouldn’t dig any deeper.

“I’m already going to carry my grandson, what are you looking for?” Lu Jin glared at Gu Nianzhi and pretended to be angry as he reprimanded her.

Gu Nianzhi was not afraid at all, and even blushed a little.

She held her face in her hands. Thinking about her and Huo Shaoheng’s baby, her heart was almost drunk.

…

In the next few days, Gu Nianzhi immersed herself in preparing for court nervously.

As expected, Lu Yuan agreed to help Gu Nianzhi investigate the Qin orphanage in the south. He took it very seriously and decided to personally take a few of his best men to South Z city.

Before he left, he invited Huo Shaoheng over to have dinner with Gu Nianzhi and Lu Jin, during which he said to Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi, “I’m afraid I Won’t be back for a while. I’m worried about the two of you staying here, so I specifically asked Mr. Peter to accompany you for a while.”

“You already know Mr. Peter’s identity. He admitted to us himself that he used to be a member of the Soviet. The Committee of State Security can only go to the south with peace of mind with him around.”

Lu Jin was unhappy and said with a sullen face, “I can protect Nianzhi. I have all kinds of weapons. If necessary, I can also create a selective biochemical virus weapon that only targets the enemy.”

With a frown, Lu Yuan replied, “What’s the use of making weapons? Do you know how to Cook?”

Lu Jin was in trouble again.

Gu Nianzhi held back her laughter. She was elated and said seriously, “Thank you, Mr. Peter. But you don’t have to protect me. Just cook three meals a day for us.”

“Four meals and a midnight snack.” Lu Jin looked at Huo Shaoheng with embarrassment.
