After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Chapter 402 When Will It End?

Gu Zhiyao listened quietly to these past events, deeply shocked, and unable to shake them off for a while.

"I originally planned to tell you about my background when you were older, but then I had an accident. I suspect that my amnesia might have been caused by your father's later wife. She didn't want me to tell you the truth and deliberately framed me. When I thought that she might still be searching for you and could pose a danger to you, I rushed out to find you!"

“Aunt Zhang…” Gu Zhiyao looked at the kind and loving woman in front of her with tears in her eyes, continuing to quietly process those things.

Aunt Zhang said, "There's one more thing, Zhiyao. Didn't I just tell you that your mother's name is Zheng Xiaoxue? She is..."

Yes, Gu Zhiyao was so focused on hearing the whole story that she didn't pay attention to her mother's name.

Zheng Xiaoxue.

Ah Xue...

His surname is Zheng.

"Aunt Zhang, you mean..."

"Yes, your mother is the daughter of the Zheng family in Yuncheng, and that old woman was probably your maternal grandmother..."

boom!

Gu Zhiyao was once again struck by lightning.

Grandma Zheng is her maternal grandmother, so doesn't that mean Zheng Yuanxi is related to her...?

Do not!impossible!

"Aunt Zhang, are you sure what you're saying is true?"

“I know it’s hard for you to believe, but Zhiyao, it’s true. You are indeed a member of the Zheng family, and you and Zheng Yuanxi are cousins.”

Gu Zhiyao was once again stunned for a long time, as if she had turned to stone. One truth after another came at once, leaving her completely at a loss!

After some time, Gu Zhiyao asked Aunt Zhang, "Auntie, where do you live now?"

“I’m at the orphanage. I came here to see the director, but I didn’t expect to run into you right away.”

"I've been quite busy these past few days. I'll have a proper talk with you after I'm done with my work..."

"Okay, no rush. The director has caught a cold these past few days, and there's no one to look after the children. I was just planning to help her out for a few days."

"The dean has a cold? Is it serious? She didn't tell me."

"It's just a common cold, nothing serious. As you get older, you're bound to have less energy. She probably knows you've been busy these days and didn't want to bother you."

"Let me go back with you to see her."

"are you free?"

"It's nothing, I'll just go over there for a bit."

"it is good."

They left the mall and went to the orphanage.

Gu Zhiyao has been busy bringing Zheng Yuanxi to justice since she returned, so she hasn't contacted the dean yet. She originally planned to visit the dean and the children after she finished her business, so the dean only just found out that Gu Zhiyao had returned to the country.

"Silly girl, you're so busy, don't come to see me. It's just a minor ailment. Besides, Xiao Zhang is watching over me."

Regarding their origins, it's better to have fewer people know than more. Gu Zhiyao and Aunt Zhang agreed not to tell the dean yet.

Everyone enjoyed a pleasant dinner.

Afterwards, Aunt Zhang saw Gu Zhiyao off. "Zhiyao, I told you about your background because I was afraid your father's new wife would find you and cause you harm. Also, I think your mother's death was not simple, and I hope to find out the truth of what happened back then. As for the Zheng family, it doesn't matter whether you acknowledge them or not. You can decide for yourself."

"Yes, I know, thank you, Aunt Zhang."

Aunt Zhang shook her head, touching her face as she did when she was a child, and sighed, "You are even more beautiful than your mother was when she was young. It's a pity that, like your mother, you couldn't find a good husband. But I believe you are still luckier than your mother. No matter what happens, don't be too pessimistic. Treat your child as the most important thing, understand?"

“I understand, Auntie, don’t worry about me. I will live well and raise Chenchen and Niuniu.”

"Okay, go back now. Call me if anything happens. Be careful."

"You too."

When Gu Zhiyao returned to her residence, Lin Yu happened to be there as well, so she told Lin Yu everything that had happened that day.

Lin Yu was stunned for a long time before she could recover.

The first thing she said was, "She appeared on this bone. Are you sure she's really Aunt Zhang, the one who took care of you since you were little? She actually came back to life! That's amazing! Also, could this Aunt Zhang have been bribed?"

"Although I also find it unbelievable, I'm sure she is Aunt Zhang. She knows so much about me, and the birthmark on her wrist confirms it. As for whether she could be bribed, I... don't know, but I think it's unlikely." Having known each other for almost five years, those past events cannot be described in a few words, but Gu Zhiyao truly had no doubt about Aunt Zhang's identity.

Seeing this, Lin Yu didn't dwell on it. "Perhaps it really is just a coincidence. After all, she told you that whether you acknowledge the Zheng family or not is up to you, which shows that her real target is still your father's side. Your father, is this Lin Zhisen? He's quite respectable, and his background is indeed impressive. He used to be a researcher, and later developed many products, applied for patents, and built a research team and group. I heard that he's now one of the richest people in Haicheng. As for his wife, she's also from a prominent local family. They only got married three years after you were born. Logically, it shouldn't have been this late. If they really had an affair, shouldn't they have married her immediately after your mother passed away?"

As Lin Yu spoke, she pointed out the information she had just gathered from the internet to Gu Zhiyao.

Gu Zhiyao glanced at it briefly and said, "Perhaps they didn't know my mother had passed away at the time."

“There’s no reason they wouldn’t know. If they really had bad intentions, they would have been keeping a close eye on the Zheng family in Yuncheng, and that’s why they knew about your mother’s death. Or maybe they didn’t know your mother’s true identity back then.”

"So, we need to verify all of this before we can know for sure," Gu Zhiyao said absentmindedly.

Lin Yu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yao, do you... not want to investigate these things?"

Gu Zhiyao stared blankly at Lin Yu, "My mind is actually in turmoil. Today's events have been too much of a shock, and I still can't process them. Originally, I only wanted to bring Zheng Yuanxi to justice, figure out how to deal with Wen Ya, and then go back to Canada to live a peaceful life with Chenchen and Niu Niu. But suddenly my background has been exposed, and there may be so many hidden dangers... I..."

"You feel annoyed and angry, right? You feel like these endless problems will never end, and why did you have to be in this kind of life?" Lin Yu asked.

Gu Zhiyao remained silent, but her expression said it all.

Lin Yu pulled her close and said, "That's life. No one can be carefree. Your life has indeed been quite turbulent, but since it's your fate, face it bravely and change it! Of course, there's no need to think too much right now. The first thing to do is bring Zheng Yuanxi to justice. We'll talk about the rest later."

"it is good."

"You're exhausted, your brain must be about to explode. Come on, take a rest."

Under Lin Yu's insistence, Gu Zhiyao soon fell asleep as well. Lin Yu, on the other hand, looked at her sleeping face with heartache and concern, deep in thought.

Neither of them expected that the Zheng family matriarch would approach Gu Zhiyao again the next day.
