Chapter 40: Gu Pei's Departure

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Under Xie Chaochao’s cute pleading, Xie Zhou helplessly agreed to bring Gu Pei to the doctor.

However, he was still wary of Gu Pei.

“Leave immediately after you’ve recovered. Our family does not welcome people of unknown origins!”

Gu Pei knew that Xie Zhou was worried that his daughter would encounter bad people.

He nodded and said, “Thank you!”

Gu Pei was struggling to walk, so Xie Zhou helped him down the mountain.

Xie Zhou didn’t bring him to the doctor. The doctor would be able to tell that he was injured by a knife.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xie Zhou went to the village clinic to get some medicine and treated Gu Pei’s wound himself.

During the process of applying the medicine, Gu Pei silently endured it, which made Xie Zhou’s attitude toward him improve.

“Alright, here’s some fever medicine. Eat it and rest! You can rest here for the next few days!” This was an empty room. There was only one bed inside, and Xie Zhou brought him a blanket.

After that, Xie Zhou looked at Xie Chaochao. “Go back and sleep. You have to go to school tomorrow afternoon!”

Xie Chaochao nodded and looked at Gu Pei. “Brother Gu Pei, rest well. I’ll visit you again tomorrow!”

After the little girl left, Xie Zhou’s expression turned even colder. He looked at Gu Pei, who was sitting by the bed, and said, “I don’t care who you are. After you recover, you must leave this place. Also, stay away from my daughter!”

Gu Pei sized up Xie Zhou. A few seconds later, he asked, “I heard from Chaochao that you raised her. Where’s her mother?”

As he spoke, he kept his eyes fixed on Xie Zhou’s expression, not letting go of even the slightest hint of abnormality.

Xie Zhou’s gaze turned even colder. “What are you trying to say?”

“I’ve seen a woman before. Chaochao looks very similar to her. I want to confirm if this is a coincidence!”

Gu Pei voiced out the doubts in his heart. As expected, Xie Zhou’s expression changed.

He was more certain of his guess.

“Chaochao is my daughter. No matter who that woman is, since she abandoned Chaochao back then, Chaochao has nothing to do with her now!”

Xie Zhou said coldly, “Even if Chaochao’s biological parents come, I won’t let Chaochao go with them!”

Xie Zhou walked out of the room and slammed the door.

Gu Pei sat on the bed and stared at the shaking wooden door, deep in thought.

Xie Zhou said that Xie Chaochao was abandoned?

This did not match the information he knew!

What was the truth?

Did that family cover up the truth? Was that child not dead but lost? Or was Xie Chaochao really not that woman’s child?

…

Xie Chaochao knew nothing about this.

The next day, the first thing she did was run to Gu Pei’s room.

Seeing Gu Pei sit on the lounge chair in the courtyard, she immediately ran over with a smile.

She touched his forehead.

“It’s not hot anymore. Brother Gu Pei’s fever has gone down!”

Gu Pei smiled. “That’s right. I still have to thank Chaochao. If not for you, I wouldn’t have recovered so quickly!”

Xie Chaochao waved her hand like a little adult. “No need to thank me, it’s nothing!”

Gu Pei laughed out loud, his thoughts running wild.

Perhaps living here with Xie Zhou was the best thing for her!

A child who grew up in such a big family would not be as carefree as she was now.

Xie Chaochao was going to school in the afternoon. When she left, it was Xie Zhou who sent her off in a transporter.

Before leaving, she was reluctant to part with him. “Brother Gu Pei, you have to recuperate well. I’ll be back in five days. By then, your injuries will definitely be healed. I’ll bring you up the mountain to play!”

Gu Pei smiled and replied, “Alright, you have to take good care of yourself in school!”

Xie Chaochao sat in the car and kept waving at Gu Pei. Gu Pei smiled and waved back at her as he stood at the entrance.

When Xie Zhou saw this, he felt jealous. He stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away.

The little girl was only thinking about Gu Pei. There was no place for her father anymore.

When Xie Chaochao parted ways with Xie Zhou, she even reminded him, “Daddy, you must remember to change Brother Gu Pei’s dressing. This way, his injuries will heal faster!”

Xie Zhou threw the little girl into the school and drove away. He didn’t want to hear her talk about Brother Gu Pei anymore.

For the next few days, Xie Zhou and Gu Pei basically didn’t interact.

Xie Zhou’s attitude was the same as before. He told Gu Pei to recuperate and leave as soon as possible.

Gu Pei didn’t ask for trouble either. He either stayed in his room or sat in the courtyard to bask in the sun.

Xie Chaochao counted the days in school every day, wondering if Brother Gu Pei’s injuries had healed.

When she finally reached home, she did not find the person she had missed dearly.

Gu Pei had left. He stayed here for only two days. He left before dawn on the third day.

He had only left a letter for Xie Chaochao in her room, and it was even held down by a dagger.

Xie Chaochao took the letter and dagger from Xie Zhou, and returned to her room dejectedly..
