Chapter 978: Chapter 975: Revelations

Le Zhengsheng couldn’t reach Gu Xiaoning and was completely puzzled.

He came here to pick up Jiujiu, and Yu Sangwan saw him looking worried, "What’s wrong? Things not going well with Ningning?"

"Hmm?" Le Zhengsheng furrowed his brow, "Did His Highness tell you?"

"Yeah." Yu Sangwan nodded, handing Jiujiu to him, "I think Jinxuan is right... Don’t dwell on the past, if you still like her, look forward."

Le Zhengsheng was silent for a moment, "Wanwan, let me ask you something, why did you give birth to Qingming back then?"

"Huh?" Yu Sangwan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Do you even need to ask? Because that’s Jinxuan’s child."

Le Zhengsheng furrowed his brow, "Yes, Qingming is His Highness’s child... So, why did Ningning give birth to Jiujiu?"

"..." Yu Sangwan was slightly stunned, "Because..."

She thought of something, "What are you trying to say?"

"Don’t you find it strange?" Le Zhengsheng shook his head, furrowing his brow, "I still don’t understand why Gu Xiaoning, who had already transferred her affections and refused to look back, gave birth to Jiujiu? Since she wanted to be with someone else, wouldn’t my child be an obstacle?"

Yu Sangwan chuckled, "You’re only thinking about this now? Didn’t I remind you back then?"

"..." Le Zhengsheng was speechless, "Did you?"

"Yes." Yu Sangwan nodded, "I asked you, isn’t it strange that such a good Ningning suddenly changed? It’s completely unreasonable!"

Le Zhengsheng was stunned, cold sweat trickling down his spine...

He remembered, Yu Sangwan did ask!

But what was he doing at that time? How come he didn’t care?

Yes, he was just engulfed in the pain of being abandoned, unable to think straight!

Le Zhengsheng nodded, "Right, you’re right! Ningning must have had a reason for acting like that! Definitely!"

He looked at Yu Sangwan, "But why is she ignoring me now?"

Yu Sangwan was surprised, "Did you do something?"

"I..." Le Zhengsheng’s cheeks flushed slightly, "I couldn’t hold back, I..."

No need to explain, Yu Sangwan understood and glanced at him, "You! Can’t you hold back? She might feel that you disrespected her."

Le Zhengsheng felt a heaviness in his heart, heaven knows, how could he?

You have to know, he hasn’t had any indulgence for two years. That day, he really couldn’t hold back!

Yu Sangwan patted his shoulder, "Keep at it, actually, Ningning is quite easy to coax and pursue..."

She pointed to her head, "That girl, it’s all straight here... right to her heart."

Le Zhengsheng nodded, "Hmm."

...

Professor Cui came to Holy City, initially planning to stay in a hotel, but Ling Yu had someone bring him to Lingyun Manor.

As a result, Cui Ruoya also followed along.

Ling Yu specifically made time to host Professor Cui.

"Uncle Cui, feel at home here, don’t be a stranger."

Professor Cui nodded with a smile, "Yes, I won’t be a stranger. Mainly, Ruoya’s place is just a single apartment, really too small, otherwise I wouldn’t need to book a hotel. It’s fortunate that Young Master Yu heard and took special note, even coming to pick me up."

"Don’t mention it." Ling Yu smiled lightly, "If it weren’t for Uncle Cui, I wouldn’t have survived at birth. Rest easy living here, there’s a driver for going out anytime, very convenient."

Cui Ruoya nestled beside her father, smiling, "Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

On the side, Gu Xiaoning came over with a tray, which contained vegetable and fruit juice.

Whenever Ling Yu was home, she would take care of these tasks.

"Please enjoy."

Gu Xiaoning placed the vegetable and fruit juice down, smiled slightly, and then withdrew.

Professor Cui was taken aback, this girl... isn’t she Little Gu? He couldn’t help but glance at his daughter, how did she end up here?

Cui Ruoya whispered an explanation, "Dad, I’ll explain everything to you later, this matter... you’ll have to help me."

After chatting a little, Professor Cui just got off the plane and needed to adjust to the time difference and rest.

The butler reported, "The guest room is ready."

"Uncle Cui, go up and rest." Ling Yu checked his watch, "Just right, I also need to go out for a bit, I’ll be back in the evening to have dinner with you."

"Alright."

Cui Ruoya accompanied Professor Cui upstairs, taking the opportunity to tell him everything.

Professor Cui listened, continually sighing, "I understand, ah... I know what to do."

He couldn’t help but look at his daughter, "Ruoya, do you really like him that much? I’m worried..."

"Dad." Cui Ruoya pursed her lips, "I really like him, how much I like him, don’t you know?"

Looking at his daughter, Professor Cui remained silent...

Facing them, Gu Xiaoning walked over.

Startled for a moment, she then bowed, "Professor Cui."

Professor Cui tugged at the corner of his lips, "Ah, hello."

Cui Ruoya acted surprised, "Oh? Dad, Miss Gu, you know each other?"

"Ah." Professor Cui nodded, "Yes... Ruoya, I have something to discuss with Miss Gu."

"Oh." Cui Ruoya responded with a smile, "Then I’ll go organize your luggage first, you two take your time."

Saying so, she even flashed a smile at Gu Xiaoning, "Miss Gu, who would have thought... you know my dad? What a coincidence."

Gu Xiaoning tugged at the corner of her lips, "Yes."

Cui Ruoya entered the guest room, leaving only Professor Cui and Gu Xiaoning in the corridor.

Professor Cui actually felt a bit reluctant in his heart, but he was a father, naturally more biased towards his daughter.

"Little Gu." Professor Cui spoke kindly, "You’ve been back for a while, how’s your health?"

Gu Xiaoning nodded with a gentle smile, "Thank you for your concern, Professor, my health is fine."

"Hmm." Professor Cui nodded, advising her, "Research can cause some harm to your body, but you received a considerable amount of money, make sure to use it well to restore your health, understand?"

Gu Xiaoning nodded silently, how could she touch that money? This is her fate for life, she has to save it for when Jiujiu grows up...

However, she was surprised at the moment, to find out that Cui Ruoya was actually Professor Cui’s daughter. Right, they both have the last name Cui, and both are doctors, how come she didn’t realize?

Professor Cui sighed, "I didn’t expect to see you here... Little Gu, I know about your situation. My daughter is now with your ex-husband, you won’t have any problem with that, will you?"

"Uh?" Gu Xiaoning was caught off guard by his question, hurriedly shaking her head and waving her hands, "No, how could I?"

She is already the ex-wife, what ground does she have?

"Sigh." Professor Cui sighed, "You’ve had it tough, I know it better than anyone. But my daughter has had it tough too, she pursued this field because of Ah Sheng... By the way, did you know? Two years ago, it was Ruoya who performed surgery on Ah Sheng, it’s thanks to her that he recovered his health."

"..."

Gu Xiaoning was stunned, she really hadn’t thought of that.

Is that so? Then, in that case, Cui Ruoya is also her benefactor!
