Chapter 203: Father and Son Don’t Know Each Other

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Gu Ci: Grandma, 1 have money.

Grandma: I’m going to give you pocket money. Christmas is coming; buy something you like.

Gu Ci: Thank you, Grandma!

Following Grandpa’s lead, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang Minghua, along with the elderly lady, also gave some money to Gu Ci. Gu Ci was both moved and puzzled. After dealing with these matters, Gu Ziyu returned.

Ziyu had a cold expression, clearly in a bad mood. Gu Ci asked, “Are you hungry?”

Ziyu remained silent. Gu Ci was confused. Was the mission not going well? She couldn’t ask too much. When Ziyu came out after taking a shower, he still hadn’t spoken a word, leaving Gu Ci even more puzzled.

Ziyu was not someone who brought work emotions home.

“Ziyu, what’s wrong?” Gu Ci asked.

Ziyu pursed his lips, suddenly revealing a gap where two of his front teeth used to be. “My teeth are gone…”

His speech was now muffled and almost unintelligible.

Gu Ci choked back a snort of laughter.

“Don’t laugh, Mom.” Gu Ziyu hid in his blanket. “I’m going to get mad!”

Gu Ci chuckled. With such a long sentence, the muffled speech became even more pronounced. Gu Ci rarely saw Ziyu in such an awkward state and couldn’t help but laugh.

Losing one front tooth could make speech slightly unclear, but losing two was truly challenging.

Gu Ci burst into laughter and pulled him out from under the blanket. “Come on, let Mommy see.”

Ziyu’s ears turned red, and he was very shy. He was a bit vain and didn’t want to open his mouth. Gu Ci said, “Be good, let Mommy take a look. If they fall out improperly, the new teeth won’t grow well.”

Reluctantly, Ziyu opened his mouth, and Gu Ci examined his teeth. “1 think it will be another week before they naturally fall out. How did they suddenly come out?”

“I ate an apple, took a bite, and they fell out,” Ziyu grumbled. “French apples are too hard!”

Gu Ci thought to herself, with your front teeth so loose, why would you bite into an apple? How could they not fall out?

“Does it hurt?”

“No, just a little bleeding.”

“What about your teeth?”

Ziyu said, “Chen Fei said that when he was a child and lost his baby teeth, his grandmother told him to throw the fallen teeth onto a high roof. That way, the new teeth would grow big and white. So, I threw mine onto the roof of the museum.”

Gu Ci was speechless.

Gu Ci thought, “Wow! You threw your two rotten teeth onto the roof of the Paris museum!”

“Alright, alright, don’t be upset. It’s common for kids to lose their teeth. We’ve all been through it. Your dad lost two front teeth at the time, and 1 did too. They’ll grow back in about six months.”

Ziyu remained silent.

“Have you eaten anything since you lost your teeth?”

Ziyu wasn’t in the mood and hadn’t eaten anything. Gu Ci said, “Change your clothes. Mommy will take you out for a late-night snack. Babies need to eat well to grow.”

“Okay!”

Gu Ziyu changed into clean clothes and, after informing Chen Fei, Gu Ci took him out for a late-night snack. Chen Fei discreetly stayed about ten meters behind them, not wanting to disturb the mother and son.

“Next door is the racetrack. Do you want… to have a late-night meal with Dad?” Gu Ziyu asked. It had been a long time since he had seen Lu Zhiyuan, and he felt a bit awkwardly nostalgic.

The hotel was only two streets away from the racetrack; it wasn’t far at all. Gu Ci also hadn’t seen Lu Zhiyuan for a while and missed him terribly. Third Master and Third Young Master shared their memories. If Ziyu called him “Dad,” Lu Zhiyuan would definitely inquire about it. With the race approaching, it was best not to be distracted.

It was the final race of the Fl Formula One Championship. Gu Ci said, “Baby, let’s wait until after the race.”

“Okay!”

The hotel offered late-night snacks, but Gu Ziyu wasn’t fond of them. He didn’t like Western food, so Gu Ci checked the reviews and found a Chinese restaurant nearby that was still open.

It was a popular place on the food street, with a decent crowd. In a foreign land, neither Gu Ci nor Gu Ziyu wore masks. They sat casually in the outdoor seating area and ordered some late-night snacks.

Gu Ci ordered a plate of fried noodles, seafood congee, a few skewers of grilled meat, and some side dishes. Gu Ziyu pitifully asked, “Mommy, since my teeth are gone, can I have soda?”

Gu Ci hesitated for a moment. She couldn’t allow him to have soda with his new teeth growing in. Gu Ziyu sighed, “Ah, even seafood congee doesn’t taste good anymore.”

Gu Ci couldn’t help but smile as she accompanied Gu Ziyu for their late-night meal. She glanced at a table behind them and furrowed her brows. She sent a text message to Chen Fei. Gu Ziyu asked, “Mommy, what’s wrong?”

“Someone has been following Mommy all day,” Gu Ci said with a light laugh. “It’s nothing.”

“Who’s following you?” Gu Ziyu frowned. “Did Dad send someone to protect you?”

“Perhaps,” Gu Ci replied. It was indeed someone from Li Jiang’s side, but not this particular group. Most likely, it was Pei Qiuying’s people. Pei Qiuying was quite patient, and Gu Ci wasn’t sure what she was planning.

“Mommy…” Gu Ziyu blinked, feeling a bit embarrassed. In all his years as a big shot, he had never felt this awkward. “I’m a bit short on cash.”

Gu Ci raised an eyebrow. “How much do you need?”

Biting into a shrimp, Gu Ziyu raised his chubby little hand and jokingly said, “Fifty million?”

“That’s nothing, how about adding a zero?”

Gu Ziyu cleverly and mischievously added, “You’re not spending money anyway, so why not spend it on me?”

His mother had a huge fortune, but she wasn’t materialistic, and he was indeed a bit short on cash.

“What do you need so much money for?”

“There’s some equipment funding that they just won’t approve. The old man goes to beg for it every day, and he’s losing his temper. We might as well handle it ourselves and not rely on others.” Gu Ziyu grumbled, “Let’s just get it done.”

Biting into a skewer of beef, Gu Ci lightly smiled and said, “How about you talk to Uncle Chen about this?”

“You agree?”

“If he’s okay with it, then I’m okay with it.”

“Great!”

Gu Ci watched her son’s smile and felt content and proud. Her precious son had transformed since he first arrived, now knowing when Ji Chi had a stomachache and making pumpkin porridge for him. He also noticed Chen Liangdong’s financial worries and was willing to raise money for him.

It was wonderful!

“Mom, dad…” Gu Ziyu’s sharp eyes spotted Li Jiang, and when he looked further back, he saw Lu Zhiyuan. Lu Zhiyuan seemed to be heading somewhere. Before getting into the car, he noticed Gu Ci and Gu Ziyu. Without glancing their way, he got into the car. Li Jiang waved to them before joining him, and they both drove away together.

“Mom, did he just ignore us?” Gu Ziyu frowned unhappily.

Gu Ci chuckled lightly, “Maybe he didn’t see us.”

“He saw us. Li Jiang waved to us,” Gu Ziyu was displeased. Li Jiang had seen them, so why didn’t Lu Zhiyuan acknowledge them?

Gu Ci said, “Let’s focus on our meal and not worry about it.”

“Mom, that’s how men are. They climb the ladder of success and forget about their wives and children. I’m the perfect example of a cute little boy who is more loyal to you,” Gu Ziyu said, constantly teasing Lu Zhiyuan.

Gu Ci couldn’t help but smile. “Yes, Mommy likes Ziyu the most.”

Gu Ziyu felt comforted by the praise. He glanced in the direction Lu Zhiyuan had gone, furrowing his brow slightly.. A night outing by his dad with such high-level security, even overseas, for a racing driver, did he really need such a tight security team?
