Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Panda Novel

In Gu Yuanli’s small villa, Gu Xie, Fourth Brother, and Fifth Brother were there. Second Old Master Gu was looking after Tong Hua.

Ye Ling’s face was really cold.

Gu Yuanli looked up at him. “Y-You…”

“Why did you destroy all the water lilies? Because that pond of water-lilies was the thing that caused Fang Hongxiu to be unconscious, isn’t it?” Ye Ling hollered.

Gu Xie, Fourth Brother, and Fifth Brother were shocked.

Fourth Brother said, “Ye Ling, you may have some misunderstandings. Mom has been in a coma for over 20 years. It is not because of the water-lilies. Pa is the one who grew the water lilies. There’s no way he could have messed with it.”

“Gu Yuanli, I’m asking you. Is it so!” Ye Ling raised his voice slightly, ignoring Fourth Brother.

Gu Yuanli replied. “No!”

He grabbed his head in pain. Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother were silent for a moment. Gu Xie looked at him in disbelief, and his heart skipped a beat. He had a sudden premonition. Why would Second Brother cause Mom to be unconscious for so many years?

“Then why did you destroy all the water-lilies? Wild from being drunk?” Ye Ling said. “Do you take me for a fool? I had long suspected that Tong Hua’s relapse had something to do with the water lilies! I sent someone to examine the water lilies but did not get much out of it. Other than the fact that there was nothing suspicious about the water lily, did you know that you almost killed Tong Hua?! He’s Qianshu and my biological son!”

Fourth Brother’s eyes widened. “What?”

Not adopted son?

Ye Ling looked at the shocked expression in Gu Yuanli’s eyes. “Look at Tong Hua. How does he look like an adopted son of me, Ye Ling! From the hair on his head straight to his toes, which part of him didn’t get my genes? When he was just born, you did not take good care of him and almost caused him to die. Now that he has grown up, you connived with the murderer and almost killed him. Or should I say that when you sent him that water lily, your plan was already to kill him! Because you are jealous of me. Because Qianshu doesn’t love you, she loves me. So, you want to ruin our family! You want my family to be wrenched apart!”

“No!” Gu Yuanli was on the verge of breaking down from being interrogated by Ye Ling’s pushy self. “I did not know that he is yours and her biological son. I thought… I thought he had died long ago. I’m not the one who did the water lily thing either. I only suspected it. Why would I want to hurt him?”

Fifth Brother was really confused. He had always not been very good at speaking, nor was he good with interacting. He sat by the side and listened quietly.

Gu Xie’s heart skipped a beat. “Second Brother, what’s going on?”

Gu Yuanli wiped his face. “I never thought of hurting Qianshu’s son. Back then, I gave my all to protect them. I wished to wait for Qianshu to give birth and then move to another place. Who knew that Black Rose would know what I was thinking? She used Yang Lihua’s child as a threat. She wanted Doctor Shen to mess with Qianshu during the examination.

“Tong Hua was already drugged when he was in the womb. She gave birth to him prematurely because she affected the womb. The poison had hurt the child. I really have no idea why the kid that died was Doctor Yang’s while Qianshu’s child survived.”

Gu Yuanli knocked his head softly.

“Tong Hua and I have done a genetic test before. 100% confirmed,” Ye Ling said. “Gu Yuanli, your relationship with Black Rose isn’t shallow. She never hides anything she does from you. What about when Tong Hua had a relapse? What about the pond of water lilies? There’s no way this could just be a coincidence. Neither could it purely be you being drunk and wild.”

The brothers in the Gu Family looked at each other.

Gu Xie said with a deep tone, “Second Brother, up till now, we don’t even know if Qianshu is dead or alive. What else are you hiding from us? What exactly is going on? Tell us, hurry!”
