Gu Zecheng burst into laughter and kissed Lin Zixi's tense face loudly, "After the end of the month, I’ll be forty years old, Baby..."

Although Gu Zecheng said such words, he resolutely gave his baby son and his dear lover an analysis, "Your little uncle, Gu Zeyi, was actually my fraternal twin brother. Your grandparents didn't have us until they’re in their thirties. Gu Zeyi's heart wasn’t too good when he was a child, so even though the two of them had always been very strict with me, they doted and spoiled your little uncle excessively. Doting and spoiling to the point..."

Gu Zecheng's face showed a harsh look that Lin Zixi had never seen before, "Doting and spoiling to the point that they made this animal undisciplined and out of control. He and a group of princelings ran amok together and even took a few lives, but several family elders joined hands to protect them…. I learned about this incidentally when I was in the army. Only then did I get a military discharge and return to B City. I wanted to go back to clean up the door for the Gu family and for the country."

"What?" Lin Zixi absolutely didn’t expect that after the cognition of his dad and his mom was subverted tonight, his cognition of his little uncle, who was the object of his role, was also subverted.

"But it's probably because God has eyes. Before I could do it, Gu Zeyi and a few of his scumbag friends had an accident in a drunken street race. Two died instantly, and one was disabled. Gu Zeyi was one of the two who died." When Gu Zecheng said this, there was no sorrow in the death of his close relative, but elation and relief instead.

But soon, he sighed—Dad Gu probably sighed enough for a year tonight—and continued, "I think God has eyes, but your grandparents couldn't accept this. Your grandma was actually so upset at that time that she became muddled. She always thinks that your little uncle is still alive, and now she even treats you as him. And your grandpa… wasn't very obvious at that time, but then his health deteriorated day by day, and he died of illness within two years after retiring."

Lin Zixi held his dad's hand comfortingly, and the other party squeezed his hand in return.

Gu Zecheng showed an expression like a smile yet not a smile, "People of their rank generally rely on special medicines every day to prolong their lives and can live to more than 80, but my old man left at the age of 62. At that time, I thought this was probably our family’s retribution. To settle the debt for the lives in Gu Zeyi's hands, our Gu family deserves to have no descendants. After I die, all the assets of the Gu family will be donated to the country."

Gu Zecheng kissed Lin Zixi's face, which completely wrote ‘my three views are broken’, "In addition, I’ve been busy with my career development, so I’ve always been alone all these years. I haven’t had any inclination or idea to find a man or a woman to fall in love with and get married, until I met you…. When I first knew you back then, you looked so similar to Gu Zeyi, and you also wanted to borrow my name to hype. Your grandma even mistook you for your little uncle and insisted on seeing you. I really wanted to kill you."

Lin Zixi subconsciously nodded. No wonder his dad back then always found him unpleasant, and all kinds of things were nitpicked over and madly disliked. His manners were so poor that the elegant demeanor of Big Boss Gu, a superior, was lost—if it were him, facing a person who looked like his evil younger brother and whom he could not get rid of, his manners would not be much better either.

"I wasn't willing to see you at that time, but I also didn’t feel at ease letting you get along with the old lady at home. So every time you’re brought home by your grandma, I was actually watching through the surveillance camera. Watching and watching...... and then my old tree sprouted, and my old house was on fire. It's just that love has never been in my life plan, and you're also a star in the entertainment circle, so I was still a bit hesitant."

"Later, you’re injured and almost died. Then I figured it out and felt that even if it's a bottomless abyss, I was also willing to walk through it together with you." As Gu Zecheng spoke, he stroked the scar on Lin Zixi's neck lightly and then laughed, "Who knew that an extreme danger of 'father and son blood relationship' was still hidden in this bottomless abyss?"

Dad Gu’s mouth said so, but his face showed no scruples, "When I just found out that you’re the son of Lin Zhenzhen and I, I thought it was a violation of moral relations, and I also felt that the Gu family had indeed suffered retribution. But what I felt the most at that time was actually fear. I was afraid that all this was because of my wishful thinking, that I’d mistake your meaning and hurt you. And I was even more afraid that I’d lose you."

When Lin Zixi realized his own feelings for Gu Zecheng, both of them had already slept together; how could he have thought that his dad had actually thought so much.

He silently digested what Gu Zecheng had said tonight for a while, and then he suddenly kissed his dad on the mouth with a ‘smack’, "Whether it's a bottomless abyss or a mountain of daggers and a sea of flames, we'll walk through it together in the future."

Gu Zecheng at once smiled and pushed him down onto the large sofa. After kissing him hard enough, he caressed Lin Zixi's lips with his fingers and asked casually, "Then, Zixi also tells Daddy, since you know that I’m your biological father, why do you like Daddy?"

Lin Zixi's mind exploded when he heard his own dad's question.

Was this a trap question?!

It was okay for a little girl who had just found her first love to ask such a question, but for a big old man over thirty like Gu Zecheng to ask?!

If he answered that it was because his dad had a handsome face, a good figure, and a big tool with good workmanship... would his dad kill this superficial, unfilial son?!

Lin Zixi thought about it for a long time but still told the truth, "Maybe it's the so-called 'love arises out of nowhere, and it’s getting deeper and deeper'. If I knew why, I’d get away from you and leave before we’re deeply in an improper relationship."

He did not regret deciding to be with Gu Zecheng, but if he could turn back time, Lin Zixi hoped that they could be a pair of ordinary father and son.

Gu Zecheng did not seem to be surprised by this answer at all. He took Lin Zixi back into his arms and used his two strong and powerful arms to firmly confine him—like a castle, but also like a cage—before muttering beside his ear, "Even if you know why in the future, you won't be able to get out... I’ve given you a chance."

Big Boss Gu's tone was half joking and half serious, but he wanted Lin Zixi to know that his words were not just intimate banter between lovers.

But Lin Zixi blinked at his dad and still couldn't help but try to court disaster, "What if I stubbornly want to leave then?"

His dad immediately took off the blanket and pajamas on his body, leaned over, and pressed him onto the sofa, "Then I have to make you have no strength to even walk every day."
