After a secret marriage, I became the biological mother of a rich and cute baby

Gu Jinlan was startled and felt that Shi Ye was looking at her as if he was going to pounce on her at any time.

She subconsciously leaned back, pressed against the back of the chair, and asked stutteringly, "Why...why are you suddenly talking about having a wedding again?"

Shi Ye said: "I just want the whole world to know that you are my wife, so that when you return to the Zhao family in the future, no one will dare to bully you or look down on you."

Gu Jinlan's eyes dodged, "I... I didn't say I wanted to go back to the Zhao family."

Shi Ye looked at her tenderly, "But in fact, you are looking forward to reuniting with your family, but you have concerns in your heart."

At noon in the restaurant, he noticed that the way she looked at the brothers Zhao Jinchen and Zhao Jingchuan was different from before.

At that time, her eyes were very gentle and filled with emotion.

Gu Jinlan denied: "I have nothing to worry about."

Shi Ye said firmly, "You do. You are worried that they won't cherish you after you agree to meet them, so you don't dare to have any expectations of them because you are afraid of being disappointed. You are afraid of being hurt, so you want to prevent everything from the beginning. After all, the best way for a person to avoid being sad is to not be tempted."

Gu Jinlan was stunned and his eyes widened slightly.

When did he become a worm in her stomach?

He actually saw through her thoughts!

She admitted that this was part of her concern.

Shi Ye continued, "You seem unwilling to accept my feelings. You don't dare to trust me or completely entrust yourself to me because you're afraid that one day in the future, I will let you down."

“……”Gu Jinlan was speechless.

Is he cheating today?

Every word touched her heart.

Even so, her "cowardice" is nothing compared to what she is really afraid of.

"Lanlan, I won't let you down, nor will I let the Zhao family let you down. Do whatever you want. Don't be afraid. I will be your strong backer!"

Shi Ye looked at Gu Jinlan with sincere affection.

Although the relationship between the Zhao brothers is better than that between the Shi brothers, the Zhao family is still a big family after all.

There are many gossips in a big family. If anyone knew that Lanlan had married him but didn't even have a proper wedding, they would definitely gossip about her behind her back and look down on her.

Especially those relatives who have a good relationship with Zhao Shiyun, they might make things difficult for Lanlan after she returns to the Zhao family.

He didn't care whether Zhao Jinchen could protect Lan Lan in the Zhao family, but as Lan Lan's husband, he would never let her suffer any grievances when she returned!

Therefore, he wanted to hold a grand wedding for her before she returned to the Zhao family to recognize her ancestry, so that everyone would know that she was the woman that he, Shi Ye, carefully protected, and no one would dare to bully her.

Gu Jinlan was speechless for a long time.

Shi Ye's affectionate and serious gaze made her heart itch, and she almost nodded in agreement.

After a long silence, she suddenly smiled, her smile was so calm and there was no emotion in her lively eyes.

Shi Ye lowered his eyes slightly, "What are you laughing at?"

Gu Jinlan said, "When I gave you a psychological test before, I did say that you are very good at guessing people's minds. But this does not mean that you can read minds. What you said just now is all your subjective imagination."

"I don't have such complicated thoughts. I don't care whether the Zhao family treats me well or not."

"Although we are related by blood, we have never met in the past twenty years, so there is no emotional basis for us. I have a good impression of Brother Zhao because he is indeed a good person and a good friend of yours."

"As for Zhao Jingchuan, he is now the husband of my good friend. I love him and his wife, so I am naturally willing to get in touch with him."

"That's all the relationship between me and the brothers."

"As for our wedding, I said I haven't decided whether to stay with you forever. It's not because I'm afraid of being let down by you and dare not get close to you."

"It's just because I didn't think it through. Anyway, I'm not as hypocritical as you guessed."

The tenderness in Shi Ye's eyes disappeared, and a trace of anger appeared in his eyes, "Do you know that what you said is very hurtful?"

He is not one to express emotions.

But for her, he took the initiative.

Those heartfelt words he just said were all spoken after he had rehearsed them many times in his mind.

But she acted like she didn't care!

Gu Jinlan sighed helplessly, her tone still sounding calm and indifferent, "If telling the truth hurts others, then I'm sorry."

Shi Yexuan's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, "We have been together for a while, have you not considered it yet? Or am I not doing something right?"

Gu Jinlan shook her head, "No, you're fine. It's my problem. Just treat me as a heartless person."

Shi Ye stared into her eyes, trying to tell from her eyes whether she was lying.

But she looked into his eyes without flinching, with a calm look in her eyes.

"Okay!" Shi Ye nodded and had nothing to say.

This was the first time in my life that I opened my heart to a girl, but this was the result I got in return.

Thinking back to what he had just said, he found it a little ridiculous.

Shi Ye stood up to leave, but was stopped by Gu Jinlan.

"Wait, let me show you something."

Shi Ye stopped and turned to look at Gu Jinlan in confusion.

I saw her pick up her phone, not knowing what she was doing, and then his phone rang.

Gu Jinlan raised his phone and said, "I sent it to you, take a look."

Shi Ye opened WeChat and saw that she had sent him a document containing a person's information.

Gu Jinlan added: "He is the hacker who attacked the group that day. I guess he was instructed by someone. There must be someone behind him. You should be able to find out who that person is better than me. After all, you must know your enemies better than me."

Shi Ye glanced at the information casually, and when he looked up at her again, the anger in his eyes had dissipated, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips, "A woman who says one thing and means another."

Gu Jinlan was stunned for a moment, "You...are you scolding me?"

Shi Ye held up his phone and said, "If it's true as you said, that you don't care about me, why did you help me find this person?"

Gu Jinlan smiled and said, "We are husband and wife after all, it's just a piece of cake."

Shi Ye no longer believed Gu Jinlan’s lies and sat back in the chair in front of his desk.

Gu Jinlan frowned, "Um... Mr. Shi, you can go now. I have already sent you the things."

Shi Ye said: "Let's talk more."

"..." Gu Jinlan raised his hand and stroked his forehead speechlessly, "Haven't we already talked it over very clearly?"

Shi Ye said: "Let's not talk about the Zhao family first, let's talk about the two of us."

"You clearly care about me, but you refuse to admit it. I'm sure you have concerns in your heart, so you choose to close your heart."

"If it's not the reasons I guessed before, then maybe it has something to do with your experience abroad?"

"Or maybe...Is it me who makes you feel insecure?"

"Didn't you keep asking about Ranran's mother? I'll tell you now."

He thought that perhaps only if he opened his heart to her first and let her truly feel his honesty and unreservedness, would she be willing to open her heart to him.
