Became a vicious male mother

204

The role-playing mission suddenly takes place in a way that involves using someone else to do the dirty work.

Upon hearing what the system said, Gu Xinglan subconsciously looked towards the courtyard again.

In the yard, Li Taihe was stroking the belly of the big dog, which was smooth and shiny.

The dog twitched its nose a few times, its eyes darted around, finally settling on a certain direction, and then suddenly started barking loudly.

The sound led everyone in the yard toward the direction of the barking dog, but the place was empty; there was no one there.

If you look quickly enough, you can see how someone is frantically trying to hide.

Gu Xinglan was so frightened that her legs almost went weak, and she hid behind the curtains without moving.

The dog was so big that it could probably reach his chin when it stood up. It was all muscle. One look at it made him feel like he had become the dog's prey. He decided to go upstairs to find Li Hetai first.

-

When Gu Xinglan came out of the room, there were a few people cleaning outside. When they saw Gu Xinglan, they all stopped what they were doing.

"You're Gu Xinglan?"

Someone put down what they were holding and slowly walked over.

"I heard that people in your year were fired for stealing from their employers, right?"

"Why are you the only one who stayed behind?"

The mass layoffs at the villa occurred a few months ago. Long-term employees sold off antiques in the villa, and after the scandal broke, they were all laid off.

"I arrived in the middle of the journey," Gu Xinglan shook her head.

The man snorted and turned around to continue wiping things.

The once gloomy passageway in Changgu Villa has now been equipped with lights and surveillance cameras.

Gu Xinglan, who wanted to go upstairs to find Li Hetai, stopped at the top of a staircase and hesitated for a long time.

His hidden storyline hasn't been touched for a long time.

The system in his mind also popped up: [Now is the perfect time to investigate, host, what do you think?]

[Host?] The electronic voice sounded somewhat excited.

"What if there's danger in here?" Gu Xinglan had witnessed firsthand how, without a map, one might quietly meet their demise.

System: [Let's go take a look; we might find something.]

You're right.

Gu Xinglan swallowed hard, then turned and walked into the passageway.

The lights were excessively bright, blurring the cracks in the walls and brickwork, making them look like smooth, shiny silk at first glance.

I don't know how long I walked, but at the end of the passage, instead of a fork in the road, there was a painting.

The woman in the painting is wearing a retro cheongsam with a black mink shawl over her shoulders, which makes her head look extremely small. She is elegant and dignified. Her hair covers her face, but the side profile that is visible is exactly the same as Li Hetai's.

Is this Li Hetai's biological mother?

Gu Xinglan rubbed his eyes, and when he looked again, the lights suddenly went out as if they had been turned off, startling him into a gasp.

As I reached for my phone, a strange warmth enveloped me.

The instant the flashlight was turned on, he could only see a fleeting glimpse of cold light, which quickly swept across the sharp lines. The next second, Gu Xinglan took off running, his face a blur of expressions.

The last time I came to investigate, I encountered a similar situation of him running and being chased, but Li and Tai helped him hide. This time...

After running for an unknown amount of time, when Gu Xinglan returned the way she came, she found herself in a different hall, not the original stairwell.

Returning the way he came carries the risk of getting lost, and if he encounters the man with the axe again, his life will be in danger.

He knew the way well; the lobby led to the outdoor swimming pool.

He had previously seen Li Taihe diving in the pool, but his kindness was misunderstood. At that time, he even cooked a bowl of noodles for Li Taihe.

The other party made a solemn vow, saying that he would be reborn from the ashes.

What's the point of this promise now? Is it just empty talk? Not only did they find a new person to replace him, but they also ignore him completely.

When you're busy, treat him like gold; when you're idle, leave him to the side like sand.

Fortunately, he managed to cling tightly to the Li family's big ship.

This trip was thrilling but ultimately safe.

When Gu Xinglan walked from the hall into the outdoor swimming pool, there was no ice there, nor was there any sign of "outdoor".

A transparent dome stretched straight out from the inside, and even the swimming pool was steaming.

The key point is that the two people who were just playing with the dog in the yard are now soaking in the pool wearing bathrobes.

Steam rose from the pool, enveloping the entire body of water.

Gu Xinglan couldn't see them clearly, but she could distinguish their voices.

He pressed himself against the wall and slowly moved toward the passageway furthest from the two people.

You can get back to your room in Le Hoi and Tai by going around the outdoor pool; the two places are very close to each other.

Just as he feared, a few splashes came by his ear, and the woman's figure became blurred in the ripples, the waves coming from the direction he was in.

The extent of the danger he was in was evident from just a single gesture, such as peeking out to breathe.

He quickly picked up his slippers and quickened his pace.

The wet, slippery floor had intricate patterns that hurt a little when you stepped on it, but they made it easier to move faster and faster until you were almost out.

Suddenly, the sound of rumbling wheels echoed through the passageway, and Gu Xinglan's heart tightened.

It was too late for regrets; he quickly turned around and went to the nearest cover.

There was a long tablecloth on the table, enough to cover his body, and he quickly crawled inside.

The air inside was stuffy and hot, and the underfloor heating was so hot that it made the soles of his feet extremely uncomfortable.

With a few splashes, the woman came out of the pool and smiled at the maid, "I'll do it. Go and get two more bottles of freshly squeezed pomegranate juice."

The carts were filled with staple foods, and the only drinkable option was corn cream soup.

The wheels were slowly pushed toward the table, and in less than half a minute, Li Taihe could be seen there.

Yu Yue smiled and pushed the cart to the table.

Li Taihe was extremely gentlemanly. He came over and draped a clean bathrobe over her, then took the trolley and set the table.

There were only the two of them there, so quiet that even their heartbeats could be heard clearly.

"Thank you for staying with me." Yu Yue's face flushed red from the heat, her eyes fixed on someone.

"I should."

After setting the table, Li Taihe wiped his hands with a handkerchief and said softly, "From now on, you are the master of this place. Treat it as your own home and enjoy it."

The two people sat facing each other on opposite sides of the table.

Just then, snowflakes drifted down from the sky, like tiny fragments draped over a transparent veil, while tender green vines twined around the wall, winding upwards, with a few thorny grafted roses dotting the leaves, creating a tranquil yet romantic atmosphere.

The most important person is the one sitting opposite you.

Her long, slender eyelashes were clearly defined, and a drop of water, brought out by the heat, glistened between her noses. Her nose was high and straight, and below it were two thin lips, pale in color.

Such beauty was irresistible; Yu Yue couldn't take her eyes off her, and didn't even lift her knife and fork.

"You are the least businessman-like person I have ever met."

"What does that look like?" Li Taihe asked with a slight smile as he cut his steak, his knife and fork still moving.

Yu Yue pursed her lips slightly, her gaze still fixed on someone's face, her mind frantically searching for the right words.

After a moment of thought, her eyes lit up, and she said in a sweet voice, "You are more like an artist. It's hard to describe the feeling you give me. There is an indescribable composure, unlike those businessmen whose minds are only filled with profits and numbers."

Gu Xinglan, who was being forced to eavesdrop, trembled like a leaf.

The air around my nose was hard to circulate, the floor heating under my feet was unbearably hot, and my head was spinning. I could only be led by what was happening outside.

The word "artist" is like a hook, instantly linking the image in one's mind of a villain who constantly whips someone with a barbed braid and forces them to hold a knife.
