When Shen Qianqian heard Gu Hecheng's attitude, she began to feel uneasy. Thus, she subconsciously said to Jiang Di, who wanted to help her, "It's okay. We were just discussing something."
Although Jiang Di was worried, since Shen Qianqian had already said so, he naturally could not say anything more. He could only watch as Gu Hecheng pulled Shen Qianqian away without looking back.
When Shen Qianqian was about to be pulled to the corner by Gu Hecheng, she looked back and saw that Jiang Di was still there. Thus, she hurriedly waved at him and said, "Don't wait for me. You can go back first."
Jiang Di had no choice but to watch the two disappear from his sight. Then, he turned around and left.
There was a large patch of green outside the wall, which made people feel relaxed and happy. However, Shen Qianqian and Gu Hecheng were obviously not in the mood to appreciate it.
Gu Hecheng forcefully pulled Shen Qianqian and pinned her against the wall. He tried his best to suppress the anger that wanted to strangle Shen Qianqian's neck. He suppressed his voice and asked, "Let me ask you. Are you hiding anything from me?"
Shen Qianqian gritted her teeth and looked at Gu Hecheng. She could clearly see the anger in Gu Hecheng's eyes that could almost devour reason. However, she still turned her head and answered firmly, "No, I'm not hiding anything from you."
"You're not?" Gu Hecheng stared at Shen Qianqian with bloodshot eyes. He did not expect her to be so stubborn and refuse to tell the truth.
Gu Hecheng looked at Shen Qianqian, who was deliberately avoiding his gaze. He felt as if his heart was bleeding. The corners of his mouth twitched helplessly and bitterly. He could not understand why Shen Qianqian would do such a thing to him.
Gu Hecheng suddenly reached out and grabbed Shen Qianqian's chin tightly. He asked, "Say that again?"
Shen Qianqian's eyes were forced to meet Gu Hecheng's. She wanted to break free, but she realized that she was powerless. Her heart was beating wildly at this moment.
Although Gu Hecheng did not say anything, Shen Qianqian was extremely afraid when she saw his expression. She felt that he might really know. However, as long as he did not ask, she would not admit it. She would rather the two of them continue to waste time like this.
Gu Hecheng was the same. He wanted to wait for Shen Qianqian to confess, but it seemed that it was impossible. He first released his hand and lowered his head so that Shen Qianqian could not see through his thoughts. Then, he suddenly waved his hand and punched the wall behind Shen Qianqian.
The heavy wall collided with the force of his hand and made a muffled sound. Shen Qianqian jumped in fright. She looked down and saw that the back of Gu Hecheng's hand was already bleeding.
Shen Qianqian frowned and looked at him silently. After a while, Gu Hecheng seemed to have made a great decision and finally said what was on his mind.
"Let me ask you. Do we have a child?"
Gu Hecheng's voice was very soft but also very heavy. To Shen Qianqian, it was like a heavy blow to her heart.
What was supposed to happen had happened. However, Shen Qianqian still could not figure out how he knew.
Shen Qianqian's mind was in a mess. She was shocked and trembling. She tried hard to control her emotions so that she would not look so flustered. She tried hard to think of an excuse.
"No. We don't have a child. " Shen Qianqian raised her head and looked into Gu Hecheng's eyes to prevent herself from sounding nervous. "We don't have a child."
"You don't?" Gu Hecheng looked at Shen Qianqian with a faint smile. Did she still want to hide it until the end?
"Then what about Xiao Kong? Who's Xiao Kong? " Gu Hecheng gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Qianqian. Suddenly, he held her shoulders tightly and said, "I found out from the school that Xiao Kong is your child. Don't tell me whose relative he is. That was just to cover for you, right?"
School? Shen Qianqian was extremely shocked when she heard Gu Hecheng's words. She did not expect Gu Hecheng to go to the school.
"You … when did you start investigating?" Shen Qianqian finally could not help but ask. However, before Gu Hecheng could speak, she turned her head stubbornly and said, "Okay, that's right. I'll tell you. Xiao Kong is my child, but it has nothing to do with you."
"No?" Gu Hecheng sneered and pressed Shen Qianqian's shoulders to prevent her from taking another step forward.
"I said no." Shen Qianqian was about to break down because of Gu Hecheng. "If he's really our child and he's already grown up, why would I hide it from you? Tell me why."
"Yes, I also want to know why." Gu Hecheng looked at Shen Qianqian with a bitter smile. He did not know what to say at this moment.
Shen Qianqian raised her head to look at Gu Hecheng's pained expression. An inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. What's more, she felt an inexplicable thrill of revenge.
Back then, Gu Hecheng had drunkenly asked her to abort the child, as well as the way he had threatened her when he was sober. These were all imprinted in her mind like a nightmare. He actually didn't remember it. Even if she deliberately wanted to forget it, at this moment, everything would still be recalled.
Shen Qianqian's gaze gradually turned cold. She looked at Gu Hecheng with eyes full of resentment.
If she had not been hiding Xiao Kong for so many years, perhaps Xiao Kong would not have had the chance to be born. If she had not been afraid that he would take Xiao Kong away, she would not have been so heartless as to leave Xiao Kong alone in the temple for so long.
And now, Gu Hecheng wanted to use this sudden news to question her. He did not have the right to do so.
"Gu Hecheng, this child is not yours." Shen Qianqian's gaze suddenly became very cold. She looked at him lifelessly and said, "Have you forgotten? I was kidnapped back then. That child was conceived at that time. After I married you, I wanted to give birth to the child. I was worried that you would not agree, so I lied to you. Why? Is there a problem?"
Gu Hecheng frowned. He looked at Shen Qianqian with a pained expression. Even now, you still want to lie to me?
Shen Qianqian looked at Gu Hecheng, who was silent for a moment. She did not know if he really believed her or not. She thought for a while and continued, "Now that you know, are you satisfied? Can you let me go?"
In the face of Shen Qianqian, who could not wait to leave, Gu Hecheng suddenly sneered. He really did not know what to say at this moment.
Gu Hecheng shrugged. He wanted to go back to the car, but he remembered that he did not have the test results. He could only look at Shen Qianqian and say, "You still refuse to admit it?"
"Do you really think that I don't know anything and came unprepared?" Gu Hecheng pointed at Shen Qianqian and said, "I wanted you to confess, but you refused. Fine, I will give you the evidence."
When Shen Qianqian heard the word 'evidence' coming out of Gu Hecheng's mouth, she was stunned. Could it be that he had really gotten the paternity test results? Could it be that the two of them had met again? When and where?
A series of questions occupied Shen Qianqian's mind, and she almost could not breathe.
Shen Qianqian felt that her legs were starting to turn to jelly, and her whole body was on the verge of collapsing. Gu Hecheng's next words were just as she expected.
"I will definitely make Xiao Kong come back to my side …"
"He will not come back to your side." Shen Qianqian said subconsciously. She suddenly thought of her cousin and laughed. "Xiao Kong is not my child now. He is my cousin's."
"Didn't you say that you came fully prepared? Then don't you know that Xiao Kong's account is now under Mo Yanfan's name?" Shen Qianqian suddenly sneered. "I don't care if you really have evidence or not, but you can't take Xiao Kong away. You can't take him away."
"Don't go near Xiao Kong, or I will never forgive you." Shen Qianqian looked coldly at Gu Hecheng, shook off his hand, and left, pretending to be calm.
However, this calmness was just an act for Gu Hecheng. When Shen Qianqian returned to her room, her legs turned to jelly, and she directly knelt on the ground.
Mother Liu had just returned from the courtyard. When she saw Shen Qianqian going upstairs, her face was very pale, and her body seemed to be a little stiff, she immediately put down her work and hurried after her.
When Mother Liu opened the door, she saw Shen Qianqian kneeling on the ground and trembling all over. She was shocked and hurriedly helped her up. "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
Shen Qianqian didn't say anything for a long time. Her whole body was trembling violently. After a long time, she finally opened her mouth with difficulty. "Gu Hecheng, he knows. He knows about Xiao Kong's existence."
"How could that be? How did he know?!" Mother Liu looked at her in disbelief. However, Shen Qianqian could only shake her head at this moment. She couldn't say anything else.
Shen Qianqian painfully shook her head. "I don't know how he found out either."
"I haven't seen him since more than a month ago. Now that I think about it, maybe he already knew that something was wrong. But I was too careless."
Shen Qianqian's eyes were red, and Mother Liu couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Mother Liu hugged Shen Qianqian in her arms. Her warm hands caressed her trembling back as she comforted her. "Everything will be fine. Everything will be fine."
In the room, Mother Liu and Shen Qianqian leaned against each other in silence. Downstairs, Gu Hecheng was sitting in the car. When he thought about how Shen Qianqian refused to admit it, he slammed his fist on the steering wheel.
