Chapter 718: Chapter 718: He Doesn’t Like Children
Qi Qi didn’t mind either, continued to chew, her mouth full of saliva, with a drop dripping down her chin.
She wore a small handkerchief around her neck as a bib.
The handkerchief looked familiar, identical to the one Lin Chuxia used to wipe his sweat the other day, presumably bought together.
Gu Peng quietly looked at the little girl in his arms, even missed what Lin Chuxia said to him.
Lin Chuxia gave him a puzzled look, “Gu Peng, what do you think? Is there any difficulty?”
Driving lessons shouldn’t be a big deal for him, right?
Gu Peng finally snapped out of it, “What?”
Well, he hadn’t heard a thing she said for a long time.
Seeing Qi Qi again in his arms, Lin Chuxia curled a smile, “What are you dazing about, have you never held a baby before?”
In her past life, she had no children, knowing it was her bodily issue. The Li Family looked down on her for not being able to bear children, and she herself felt inferior for not having kids.
Gu Peng held her in contempt for such thinking, forcefully changed her mindset.
Spoke with disdain towards children.
Consequently, he never married, only dated girlfriends, and refused to have children with those young girlfriends.
Remember a woman who spent a long time with him, though Gu Peng had clearly told her before they dated, he couldn’t offer her marriage.
After one or two years, the woman began to feel dissatisfied, and wanted to use a child to tie him down, swap for a marriage.
The woman was careful, only revealed it to Gu Peng when she was nearly four months pregnant, unable to hide anymore.
The four-month fetus was formed, and it was Gu Peng’s bloodline.
She thought, even if Gu Peng didn’t want to marry, he would compromise for this blood connection.
Even if he truly didn’t marry, having his child would make him take responsibility for her and the child, supporting them for life.
However, once Gu Peng knew, he didn’t hesitate, directly took her to the hospital, watched the doctor abort the child.
The woman cried her heart out, Gu Peng didn’t give her a glance once the procedure was done, turned and left.
In the past, the women broke up peacefully with him once tired of each other, even received some breakup fee.
Yet this woman got nothing but a cold stare.
People said Gu Peng was ruthless, not sparing even his own child.
He simply couldn’t stand people touching his bottom line.
He didn’t like children.
Lin Chuxia had asked Gu Peng why he didn’t like children, he replied disdainfully.
“What’s the point of having children? Like you, living a chaotic life, pulling a child into it as well? It’s just because you can’t have children, that old lady in the Li Family, Li Guangyuan’s character, having a kid in such a family would be his greatest misfortune too. Lin Chuxia, has it ever occurred to you why you can’t have kids? Maybe it’s not your fault, maybe it’s because the Li Family has done so many wicked things, fate intends to cut off their bloodline.”
Though Lin Chuxia felt Gu Peng’s comparison was inappropriate, her life was in chaos, while Gu Peng could clearly lead a good life, but he was just stubborn, caught in some fixation.
Perhaps he had faced something unbeknownst to her, casting a shadow on his perspective on children.
Lin Chuxia looked at him indifferently, with kindness in her eyes.
Qi Qi seemed to understand Mommy’s words, looking up at the uncle above her, babbling baby talk.
Gu Peng got back to his senses, shook his head, then nodded, “Never held one.”
Lin Chuxia chuckled softly, “Then you better hold her well for me, don’t drop my daughter, this little girl cries loudly.”
“Oh,” Gu Peng answered again.
Such a silent Gu Peng was very uncharacteristic to Lin Chuxia.
She knew that for Gu Peng, they’d just met, and she was someone whose status was much higher than his as a boss.
Moreover, she was a female boss, hiring him as an assistant for no apparent reason, offering him a generous salary.
He never believed in good fortune dropping from the sky, thought there was a trap, guarded against her.
But Lin Chuxia didn’t intend to change her attitude towards him.
At the garment factory, Wang Tianxue saw Lin Chuxia brought Qi Qi, held the beloved child in her arms, cherish her for a long time.
Lin Chuxia introduced Gu Peng to her.
Wang Tianxue proactively reached out to shake his hand, then deeply scrutinized him.
During this period, the garment factory’s business was stable, several new styles produced were selling well in the market, post-holiday orders flooded in like snowflakes. Follow current novels on n0velfire.net
All production lines were bustling with activity.
Wang Tianxue asked the design department to seize the opportunity, drafted several new styles suitable for spring and summer.
This time, she invited Lin Chuxia to come over, wanting her to review the new design drafts.
Meanwhile, they aimed to launch their own clothing brand with unique designs in these new styles.
The two discussed the design drafts, Lin Chuxia knew Gu Peng wouldn’t comprehend these, so she asked him to wander around the factory area.
Just now, when Wang Tianxue contacted the design department staff to fetch the design drafts, Qi Qi ended up in Gu Peng’s arms again.
Upon hearing it, Gu Peng intended to take Qi Qi out, but Wang Tianxue stopped him.
“Go by yourself, leave the child with me.”
Gu Peng handed the child to Wang Tianxue, upon exiting, Wang Tianxue fiercely glared at Lin Chuxia.
“What are you doing? So casually letting him hold the child, did you forget or something?”
Lin Chuxia teased her daughter, smiling back, “No worries.”
In the past life, having spent decades together, she understood Gu Peng’s character deeply.
Though he claimed to dislike children, and could mercilessly lead a woman carrying his child to abortion, that was simply because the woman violated their prior agreement, crossed his boundary.
In reality, Gu Peng was a thoughtful and compassionate man.
While insisting he didn’t like children, he donated to welfare institutes, occasionally spending time at orphanages playing games with the children.
Even stray cats and dogs on the roadside received his goodwill.
Earlier in the car, it was evident he wasn’t accustomed to handling kids.
Yet he tried his best to make Qi Qi comfortable in his arms.
Her daughter wasn’t one to settle easily, should anything discomfort her, she’d cause a fuss.
Qi Qi didn’t even fuss during the journey, gave her beloved teething biscuit to Gu Peng.
Children perceive intuitively, she could sense the kindness from this uncle.
Wang Tianxue didn’t appreciate her relaxed attitude, “What do you mean by ’no worries’? How much do you know about this person? I heard from Tianyu you noticed him on a construction site, just randomly picking a man off the streets, handing over your child to him? Lin Chuxia, pay more attention.”
“What do you mean by randomly picking a man off the streets?” Lin Chuxia laughed, “Making it seem like I’m pretty frivolous.”
“So those things Tianyu mentioned are true?”
Lin Chuxia blinked, “What sort of look is that? Now what has Wang Tianyu told you?”
