I RAN AWAY AFTER THE RICH OLD MAN WAS PREGNANT WITH MY CHILD (24)

Lu Mingshi was shaken to make him awake.

 

His beautiful and elegant mother who would soon to be mother-in-law asked him softly in the tone of coaxing him to breastfeed when he was a child, "My son, where is my daughter-in-law?"

 

It must be a dream, Lu Mingshi thought. How could his mother speak so softly?

 

Lu Mingshi turned over and went to sleep again.

 

Mother Lu was dumbfounded. She looked at Father Lu helplessly. "Is my son tired and sick? Or why should we call him so hard to wake up?"

 

Father Lu received his wife's gaze for help, and his masculinity surged. Two hands clamped Lu Mingshi's shoulder and dug him out of the quilt. Lu Mingshi opened his eyes in a daze.

 

His father looked at him worriedly. "Mingshi, what's this?"

 

Father Lu carefully stretched out a finger.

 

Lu Mingshi stared at his father. He pinched his leg hard.

 

"Hiss…… Four?"

 

Father Lu and Mother Lu looked at each other.

 

"Hurry up and get him dressed then go to the hospital." Father Lu said decisively to Mother Lu. He was looking for clothes while blamed himself. "It must be because we haven't come back for a long time. Mingshi finally has a wife and children. He was too happy until it short-circuits his mind. ..."

 

"My mind didn't short-circuit."

 

Lu Mingshi, who was finally sober, had a black line. He decisively pulled back his pants from the old man's hand.

 

Lu Mingshi tightened his trousers, frowned, and saw to the parents who suddenly appeared.

 

"Didn't you say you want to leave this sad place, travel the world, enjoy your life, and never come back?"

 

Mother Lu groaned. "This child, we now have a daughter-in-law. We still have to come back to see."

 

Lu Mingshi thought about it for a while and questioned, "Didn't you just say you came back to see me?"

 

Mother Lu calmed down. "Yes, we did, and also take a look at our daughter-in-law by the way."

 

Mother Lu wrung her fingers and said in hope. "Son, where is my daughter-in-law? Where is him?"

 

Lu Mingshi's mind still couldn't react. He saw his watch in a muddled manner. "It's only six o'clock."

 

Mother Lu said, "You know it's only six o'clock... You usually always go to bed at ten o'clock. Why do you go to bed so early today?"

 

Lu Mingshi answered, "I'm sleepy."

 

Mother Lu advised, "If you sleep now, you won't be able to sleep at night."

 

"It won't. I now..."

 

Lu Mingshi just wanted to say that he had to sleep twelve hours a day when he fully woke up.

 

What looked for him! Obviously, they came back to see the male daughter-in-law!

 

But.

 

Now, where could he find that daughter-in-law!?

 

Lu Mingshi's palm was sweating. He wiped it to his pants calmly. Lu Mingshi wondered how to make things happened.

 

The door was suddenly pushed open.

 

Gu Yixin, who was only wearing pants, stood at the door and said casually, "My bathroom is broken so come to your house to wash a... goose*?"

T/L: 鹅; goose.

Gu Yixin was led by the manager to register with the Municipal Labor Bureau during the day. During this period, people from other offices kept coming over to observe like monkeys.

 

Gu Yixin filled out a lot of forms, stamped a lot of papers, and copied a lot of documents. Every time he went to an office, people paid attention to him.

 

But he was used to it.

 

To Lu Mingshi's blessing, more people know him, Gu Yixin, than An Luoyu.

 

Gu Yixin came out of the labor bureau. The manager told him not to go back to the construction site. So he walked surrounding the city. After that, for lunch, he remembered the place where sold yellow stewed chicken rice that he had eaten before.

 

The owner was promoting business at the door. She was very happy to see him here and pulled him into the restaurant to sit down. Gu Yixin didn't really want to eat yellow chicken rice today, he preferred to eat teriyaki duck neck rice. But the owner was so enthusiastic. Gu Yixin was late to refuse and the foods already in front of him.

 

The owner insisted not to charge money. She only held a Polaroid and took a photo of Gu Yixin. In the photo, Gu Yixin was wearing the black and gray construction outfit, with a simple and honest smile. His left hand was giving a thumb and his right hand was holding a chopstick with a slice of yellow chicken.

 

The boss was very satisfied.

 

The lady boss posted the photo on the table Gu Yixin was sitting at today. After Gu Yixin left, the lady boss found thirty yuan under the vinegar bottle.

 

The lady boss was very moved.

 

The owner often wrote blogs on a certain website in her spare time, especially stories. When she got excited, she entered the local forum to post and praised Gu Gōngzǐ, who was thrifty and not greedy for petty cheapness, hardworking and good at moving bricks, etc.

 

The post quickly became popular.

 

The love stories of wealthy families spread all over the city. Many people were very concerned about the next story.

 

After the lady boss posted a picture to prove it, everyone realized that the protagonist’s personalities were very different from the rumors!

 

Ten minutes later, someone posted a picture in the thread. That was the official list of candidates for the first city model worker selection. Gu Yixin was on the list. The profile of candidate Gu Yixin was something that the manager hired professionals to polish up. A large number of photos of Gu Yixin while worked were posted in it. Several touching stories were also attached.

 

"Working efficiency should be ten, creating a new concept of moving bricks"

 

"The construction site is home, and love to work is part of the soul"

 

"One's own power to change the atmosphere, refuse pornography, gambling, and drugs start with me."

 

"Standing forward in times of crisis, he bravely rescued other workers from the blade of the machine. No money can buy your golden heart!"

 

...

 

Gu Yixin's Yan fans were moved and cried. They thought that Gu Yixin was a scumbag of a rich man but they never thought that he was a storm in life.

By the way, Gu Yixin came back from getting off work, passed by the living room, and was shocked by the large bags that were about to touch the ceiling. He noticed that all of them were all kinds of milk powders, paper diapers, children's carts, and imported rice cereal. Even if Lu Mingshi were going bankrupt, was he so poor so he must open a nursery at home to generate income.

 

So what was going on with this scenery of raising cubs?

 

Gu Yixin returned to his room full of doubts. He took off all his dirty clothes and threw them into the washing machine. He was naked and started taking a shower. Halfway through taking a bath, the water stopped.

 

Gu Yixin was full of bubbles. His whole body was wet. He was looking down at the foam on his body. Then he put on his pants silently and he went to find Lu Mingshi intending to borrow the bathroom.

 

As expected, Lu Mingshi didn't lock the door, as if waiting for someone to push it. As soon as Gu Yixin appeared, Father Lu's and Mother Lu's eyes widened.

 

This kid used to be shy and introverted, how could he come to their son's room while dressed like this?

 

Father Lu's and Mother Lu's eyes fell on Lu Mingshi's face in unison and found the big embarrassment in their son's eyes.

 

Father Lu and Mother Lu looked at each other, their eyes crackling.

 

Father Lu said silently with a look in his eyes, "80% of this is a good thing the son did."

 

Mother Lu also replied silently with her eyes, "If Xiao Gu is our daughter-in-law, it would be more joyful."

 

The two reached a consensus. So they turned around, stared at Gu Yixin with an extremely gentle expression.

 

They said in unison, "Baby, we are back~"

 

Lu Mingshi. "..."

 

Who was your son anyway?

"..."

 

Gu Yixin tried to identify the two elders, said hello politely, then pointed to the bathroom. "I want to use the bathroom... Do you mind?"

 

"It's okay, it's okay."

 

"You can use it."

 

"This kid, don't act like an outsider. What isn't yours in this family, which one do you prefer to use?"

 

Gu Yixin then took a bath. After taking a shower, Gu Yixin was taken to the living room by the two elders.

 

Lu Ming was frowning. He got dressed and came down to accompany him.

 

Mother Lu held Gu Yixin's hand with an expression of incomparable love and occasionally slipped her eyes to look on his stomach.

 

Still couldn't see anything yet.

 

Mother Lu thought distressedly, it must be because the infant was too thin.
