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

Although Gu Jinlan has a cold personality and doesn't like sentimental scenes, she is not a cold-blooded monster without a heart.

The topic has come to this point. Seeing how eagerly the Zhao couple looked at her, she couldn't just walk away.

And she could feel that Brother Zhao was very cautious throughout the whole process and cared a lot about her feelings.

She smiled at him and said, "Brother Zhao, don't be so nervous. Let's sit together and have a meal and chat. You can speak freely. You don't have to care so much about my feelings."

Sooner or later you have to face it anyway.

A smile also appeared in Zhao Jinchen's eyes.

Seeing that Gu Jinlan was no longer so hostile to them today, he was so happy that he finally relaxed.

Zhao Zihua looked at Gu Jinlan with burning eyes: "Lanlan, we are really happy that you are willing to come today. I heard from the boss that you don't really want to come back to us, and you are still considering it... In your heart, are you blaming us for not coming to see you all these years?"

"When I found out that Yoona wasn't you, I started looking for you. I've been looking for more than ten years but still have no clues. I...I thought you had died in the hands of the kidnappers."

"But there has never been a day that I stopped thinking about you."

"To be honest, when I was young... I had the blood of many people on my hands. I thought your departure was God's punishment for me, so I have been a vegetarian and devoted myself to charity over the years, hoping that you can live a better life in the other world."

"I gave up looking for you halfway, it was my fault. Fortunately, Jinchen insisted on looking for you, otherwise I..."

Zhao Zihua tried his best to control his emotions, but his eyes were red and his voice was choked.

Gu Jinlan shook her head. "I don't blame you. Really, Brother Zhao has said these things to me before. I understand you very well."

She had wondered before whether she had been abandoned by her parents.

Some people even speculated that her life story might be like those old melodramatic TV dramas, where her biological parents were too poor, and so in order to let her live a good life, they switched her with children from rich families.

But whatever the reason, she never had any expectations of her biological parents, so she didn't blame them.

The current situation was beyond her expectations.

She didn't expect that they had been looking for her and missing her.

The way they looked at her made her feel the warm family love. She felt that it was real emotion, not fake.

"Then Lanlan, are you willing to come back to us?" Yan Ziyin asked excitedly, "Mom is sorry for you, and I didn't know you were wandering around..."

Before she could finish her words, Yan Ziyin covered her mouth and started crying.

Zhao Zihua quickly put his arm around his wife's shoulders to comfort her.

Everyone was looking at Gu Jinlan, waiting for her answer.

Seeing that Gu Jinlan was a little hesitant, Zhao Jinchen was worried that she might still have concerns, so he said to his brothers and sisters, "You all should also express your opinions on whether you welcome Lanlan back."

"Jin Heng, you are the second child in the family, so I'll start with you."

Zhao Jinheng frowned slightly, looking like he didn't want to talk.

Gu Jinlan said quickly: "Brother Zhao, there's no need to be like this. Whether I return to my parents has nothing to do with your attitude."

She has truly felt the feelings that the Zhao couple have for her.

As for what other people think, she doesn't care at all.

If she wants to go back to her parents, no one can stop her.

Zhao Jingchuan asked: "Lanlan, what are you thinking about?"

Shi Ye looked at Gu Jinlan, observing her expression.

It was a very familiar expression. She had the same expression every time he expressed his love to her.

She was clearly moved, but it seemed as if something was holding her back, preventing her from accepting the answer.

What is she worried about?

Gu Jinlan slowly exhaled, avoiding the Zhao family's expectant eyes: "I'm sorry, I... I've gotten used to being an orphan, and suddenly I have so many relatives. I don't know how to get along with them. I'm sorry to disappoint you... I... I don't want my life to change for the time being."

The Zhao couple were stunned for a moment, and then a deep sense of loss and sadness flashed in their eyes.

Yan Ziyin buried her head in her husband's chest, crying so hard that her body trembled slightly.

Zhao Jinchen and Zhao Jingchuan also looked disappointed.

There was some surprise in Zhao Jinheng's eyes. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Gu Jinlan, finding it a little unbelievable.

She really doesn't want to go back to the Zhao family?

Is she really not interested in the Zhao family's rich fortune at all?

This really surprised him.

At the side, Zhao Shiyun lowered her head slightly, trying to reduce her presence, with a barely perceptible smile at the corner of her lips.

The happiest person at this moment is her.

If she had known that Gu Jinlan didn't want to go back to the Zhao family at all, she would not have done those things before. She ended up shooting herself in the foot and the loss outweighed the gain.

"Why?" Zhao Jinche asked, "Why don't you want to come back and recognize us?"

Gu Jinlan looked at Zhao Jinche.

This guy, who hadn't said a word to her today, is now getting excited.

Without waiting for her answer, Zhao Jinche asked again: "Is it because I pursued you before, and you don't know how to face me when you come back?"

Gu Jinlan: "I..."

Zhao Jinche: "This is not something you should worry about at all. I'm the one who was rejected. I'm the one who's embarrassed, not you! I'm not embarrassed, so why should you be embarrassed? You just..."

"Just think of it as me joking with you. Big brother is right. I liked you before only because you made me feel very close to you. I mistakenly thought that was love, but I didn't expect it was actually family affection!"

Zhao Jinche didn't even give Gu Jinlan a chance to speak and explain.

He became more and more excited as he spoke, and he stood up.

"There's nothing illicit between us, so there's nothing we can't face. From now on, we're just a family, isn't that great?"

"I'm telling you, being my sister is much happier than having me as your girlfriend. Don't even think about it, just call me Fourth Brother right now!"

Zhao Jinche's crazy output attracted everyone's attention.

Even Yan Ziyin, who had been crying with her head buried in her husband's chest, stopped crying and looked up at him in surprise.

After he finished speaking, there was complete silence at the table.

“……”Gu Jinlan opened his mouth in silence and couldn’t help laughing.

Shi Ye also laughed.

Zhao Jinche was stunned for a moment, "What are you laughing at?"

Seeing that his elder brother shook his head, he asked again: "Brother, what do you mean by shaking your head? Am I wrong?"

Zhao Jinchen raised his hand to support his chin, not wanting to even look at Zhao Jinche, "You'd better sit down."

Everyone could see that Gu Jinlan's concerns were not because Zhao Jinche had pursued her before.

What Zhao Jinche said was just his self-consolation.

"No!" Zhao Jinche said stubbornly, "I want to wait to hear Lanlan call me Fourth Brother today!"
