Mu Ning was afraid that Gu Zhiyin's hand would leave sequelae, so to be on the safe side, he asked Luther to operate on him.
Luther was reluctant at first. After all, he said that the surgery fee was very expensive, and why should he operate on Gu Zhiyin?
But when he thought about how Gu Zhiyin would take care of Mu Ning and the little guy because of his poor health, he agreed again.
From beginning to end, Luther hoped that Mu Ning could live happily.
Because Mu Ning is Si Yuening's daughter, she can also be regarded as his half sister.
During the riots in France that year, Si Yuening risked her life to save him several times and treated him as her own child.
But he didn't want to be Si Yuening's adopted son at all, he wanted to be her man.
But he was too weak at that time and couldn't protect her at all. He could only watch her fall in love with Elon.
Now that he has grown up and has his own power, he wants to protect women but is no longer there.
The regret for Si Yuening was transferred to Mu Ning.
Ningning was his lover, but unfortunately Ningning was no longer alive. He wanted to protect her daughter well.
…
After Gu Zhiyin woke up from the operation, the first thing he did was to settle the score with Mu Ning.
Luther stood in front of Mu Ning and showed a charming smile, "Mr. Gu, you owe me another favor. You said you owe me so much, how can you repay it?"
Gu Zhiyin stared at Luther gloomily, "Are you going to get out or not?"
He was standing in front of his dead wife. If he hadn't just woken up from anesthesia and was so exhausted, he would have kicked Luther out of the window.
Luther said proudly, "Mr. Gu, as a doctor-patient relationship, I helped you treat your hand. Should you pay me accordingly?"
He said to himself, "The reward is waived and you let me be Simo's godfather..."
"Phew!" A kettle grazed the side of Luther's face and smashed against the wall.
"roll!"
Mu Ning was afraid that the two men would fight, so he quickly winked at Luther and asked him to go out first.
Luther snorted coldly and walked away gracefully. How could there be such a man with no martial ethics?
His efforts were in vain and thankless.
The man who had just lost his temper was lying on the bed, his eyes red and his chest heaving with anger.
Mu Ning stepped forward to calm him down, "Hubby, calm down and don't hurt the wound."
Gu Zhiyin gave her a cold look.
He reached out and pinched Mu Ning's ears, "Awesome!"
Mu Ning hissed and slapped his hand away, "If you want to scold me, scold me, don't do it!"
He was almost mad to death, and he arranged everything for him in private. In order to let him get the bullet, he even contacted Tong De to plot against him!
Maybe, he even tricked his son into participating in it!
Mu Ning looked at the cursing man on the hospital bed.
"Mr. Gu, why are you talking so much now?"
Mu Ning couldn't help complaining, "Do men become older when they get older..."
Gu Zhiyin's face suddenly darkened, "You think I'm old and nagging me?"
"No." Mu Ning didn't want to be the same as him, so he got up and wanted to go out and clean his lower ears.
"Now you start to think that I talk too much? Mu Ning, tell me clearly, do you think that I am too long-winded?" Gu Zhiyin held Mu Ning's hand and refused to let her go.
Mu Ning stood by the bed and tucked him in, "I mean, the ward should be quiet. You just had the operation. Talk less and rest more."
Of course Mu Ning wouldn't say it. She thought he was too noisy. He had been lecturing her all morning, from being a woman to being faithful in marriage, and all sorts of nonsense. Her ears almost became calloused.
Gu Zhiyin's face was still ugly.
Mu Ning had no choice but to hold Xiao Yanxi to comfort him.
"Dad, don't be angry."
The little guy took Gu Zhiyin's left hand and said, "Dad is ready, I can hold Yanyan."
Gu Zhiyin felt much better when she saw her son's expectant eyes.
Sitting on the hospital bed with the little guy in his arms, holding a storybook and telling him fairy tales.
As expected, this trick proved to be effective every time. No matter how angry Gu Zhiyin was, he couldn't resist his own son's healing.
Mu Ning sat aside peeling fruit and watched Gu Zhiyin explain it to the little guy gently and patiently. The little guy is always obedient and quiet, nestled in his father's arms.
It seems that Gu Zhiyin really likes children, but he still treats his own children differently from other people's children.
Although he doted on Xia Xia before, he didn't have so much patience. The noise made him annoyed and he still lost his temper.
However, Gu Zhiyin's temper is much better now. He used to be really weird. Maybe it's because he has a wife and children. His inner wishes have been fulfilled, and he has become more responsible as a father and husband.
Mu Ning was happy in her heart. Whenever she saw the tender scene between father and son, the corners of her mouth couldn't stop rising.
…
Gu Zhiyin was discharged from the hospital within a few days. Mu Ning was not willing to let him stay for a few more days, and said firmly, "What's the difference between recuperating at home and in the hospital?"
Mu Ning was speechless, but there was no big difference.
Gu Zhiyin hugged Xiao Yanyan as soon as he came home. Mu Ning had already seen through him and wanted to stay with his son at home.
Gu Zhiyin rested at home for more than a month. Mu Ning asked him to return to the company. He had a good reason for refusing, "It's hard enough to take care of you and the children, how can I have time?"
Gu Zhiyin was busy, taking care of her son during the day, not to mention at night. She put her son to bed in the first half of the night and put her wife to bed in the second half of the night. How could she still have the time and energy to go to work?
"So are you planning to be a stay-at-home dad?"
Gu Zhiyin hummed, "It's more interesting than going to work."
"..."
Mu Ning couldn't stand Gu Zhiyin's behavior of taking the initiative to retreat behind the scenes and become a househusband. She didn't even want to take care of the baby at home after she gave birth.
How could a grown man like him have such thoughts?
And based on their conditions, there is absolutely no need for it.
Yanyan is sensible and obedient, and has been easy to take care of since she was a child. There are servants and Aunt He at home, so there is no need for Gu Zhiyin to worry about it, but he insists on coming in person.
But considering that Gu Zhiyin didn't see Yanyan's birth nor witness Yanyan's two years of growth, Mu Ning could probably understand him.
He wanted to spend more time and energy with his son, which was a comfort to his own heart and a compensation for the banquet.
Mu Ning had no choice but to go back to the company by himself.
On the day she went to work, Gu Zhiyin brought her son to pick her up from get off work.
When the lady at the front desk saw Gu Zhiyin coming in from the door, she was so shocked that she opened her mouth wide in shock, "Sure enough, the person I saw that day was Mr. Gu! He is really back! Is he going to come back and take office...wait a minute! "
"What is he holding in his arms...?"
Gu Zhiyin passed by the front desk with her child in her arms. The two front desk ladies quickly bowed and said hello, "Mr. Gu, good afternoon!"
Gu Zhiyin said a faint "hmm" and suddenly stood still, "I am no longer a member of LM."
The ladies at the front desk were both stunned.
Gu Zhiyin gave all his shares to Mu Ning and left the workplace. Naturally, he could no longer call him Mr. Gu.
After the front desk lady reacted, she couldn't help but look at him.
Gu Zhiyin wore a minimalist casual outfit today, paired with a light-colored long windbreaker. It was completely different from the cold and solemn feeling he had when wearing a suit in the past, and he looked very approachable.
He saw Gu Zhiyin holding a beautiful little boy in his arms, with facial features very similar to his.
A front desk lady couldn't help but asked curiously, "Is this your son?"
"Um."
The receptionist was shocked and asked boldly, "Your and Mr. Mu's son?"
"if not?"
The front desk lady realized that she had offended and quickly made up for it, "No wonder he looks so much like you and Mr. Mu. He is so handsome. He combines the best qualities of you and Mr. Mu... Hey, are you here to pick up Mr. Mu after get off work?"
"Um."
"Do you need me to inform you?"
"Need not."
After saying that, Gu Zhiyin looked at the little guy in his arms and said, "Goodbye, auntie."
Yanyan waved to the lady at the front desk.
The lady at the front desk was confused.
Until Gu Zhiyin walked away holding her son.
"What happened in the past two years? Didn't you say you got divorced? Mr. Gu, who had disappeared for two years, actually had a baby! Damn it, did Mr. Gu hide from everyone and have a baby?"
Gu Zhiyin's image was so deep in their minds that even if he was no longer in LM, they still couldn't change their words.
"This is your focus! Haven't you noticed that Mr. Gu has changed a lot?"
"What has changed? Aren't you still so handsome?"
"You were able to strike up a conversation with him before?" The lady at the front desk rolled her eyes at her companion, "When he passed by us in the past, he didn't even look at us, right?"
"When you say that, it seems true! I can actually talk to him! I have been working here for several years, and the opportunities I have to communicate with Mr. Gu are not as many as today!"
"But having said that, I have never dared to imagine the scene of Mr. Gu raising a child. I thought that after he had a child, he would still fight in the business world and make his career more prosperous for his wife and children."
"I didn't expect that he would be in charge, but Mr. Mu would be outside..."
"What do you know? This is the good man of the Gu family. Tsk, Mr. Gu is so charming even when he holds a child. More than two years have passed, and the years have not left any trace on his face. How do you think he takes care of himself?"
…
Gu Zhiyin carried his son to the senior management department. When people passing by saw him holding the child, their eyes popped out of their eyes in shock.
He pretended not to see it, and when he arrived outside Mu Ning's office, he opened the door.
He saw Mu Ning and a man smiling happily together.
