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

Gu Jinlan was dumbfounded.

"Star Sea" is a pair of sea blue diamond earrings. With delicate cutting surfaces and unique design, it looks like a blue star reflected on the sea surface, shining with mysterious light in the sparkling waves.

When blue officially released the design drawings, the response was extraordinary.

It was bought as soon as it was released.

And on her birthday last year, "Star Sea" returned to her hands.

Matt had given it to her as a birthday present.

At that time, she called Matt a spendthrift.

She doesn't own a single piece of blue jewelry. Her original intention of designing jewelry was mainly to make money, and only secondarily as a hobby.

As a result, if your own people buy it and give it to your own people, isn't it just a waste of the product that you worked so hard to design?

Later, after Matt's persuasion, she stayed, because she really liked "Star Sea" very much.

However, at this moment, she looked at the "sea of ​​stars" in front of her and felt it was extremely dazzling.

But Shi Ye found it anyway.

No wonder he has been acting so abnormal recently, behaving strangely, and even confessed his love to her and asked her to be Ranran’s stepmother.

It turned out that he wanted to test her.

Fortunately, I had no intentions towards him, otherwise I would have fallen into the trap.

Gu Jinlan looked at the "Sea of ​​Stars" and sighed heavily.

Is this her fate?

It is destined to go through this disaster, there is no way to hide or avoid it.

"Teacher Gu, do you like the gift I gave you?"

Shi Ye's voice suddenly sounded behind him, frightening Gu Jinlan so much that he shivered.

Is it a ghost?

Why did it suddenly appear?

There is no sound when walking!

In fact, Shi Ye had been knocking on the door for a while, but Gu Jinlan was staring at the "Sea of ​​Stars" and didn't hear it.

He was worried that she would die suddenly after drinking, so he just pushed the door open and came in.

"Thank...thank you." Gu Jinlan felt like a thorn in his side. "This gift is too...too valuable. I can't accept it."

I didn't even dare to look back.

Gu Jinlan lowered his head, slowly stood up and prepared to leave.

Without even wearing shoes, she walked barefoot towards the door behind Shi Ye.

It seems that as long as I walk out of this door, I can escape this disaster.

"Where are you going?" Shi Ye grabbed her forearm and pushed her back gently.

Gu Jinlan felt like a lamb to be slaughtered at this moment. He turned around and went back to the bed, picked up the quilt that had fallen on the ground, put it back on the bed, and crawled into it.

If fate is doomed to fail...she still wants to avoid it!

"..." Shi Ye looked at the arched quilt coldly, "Are you an ostrich? Do you think you can escape everything by burying your head in the sand?"

The quilt was motionless.

Gu Jinlan closed her eyes tightly inside.

She was not a person who liked to escape, mainly because she was in the wrong in this matter.

Now that Shi Ye has discovered me, I feel so ashamed and I can't face him.

"Weren't you quite arrogant and talkative last night?" Shi Ye's patience was running out.

last night?

Gu Jinlan opened her eyes in confusion in the quilt. What did she do last night?

Not impressed at all.

Apart from facing Shi Xingran's problems, how could she dare to be arrogant in front of him?

"Gu Jinlan, I'll count to three. If you still want to escape from reality and responsibility, I will make you bear the consequences you cannot afford."

"One, two..."

Gu Jinlan popped his head out from under the quilt and knelt on the bed with a serious expression, "Mr. Shi, is this the way you usually communicate with Ranran?"

Shi Ye: “???”

Gu Jinlan: "Always saying 'count to three' is a commanding way of communication that will weaken children's desire to communicate. Under this kind of authoritarian education, there are many hidden dangers..."

Shi Ye raised his hand to interrupt Gu Jinlan's words, his face cold, "Am I discussing the child's education with you?"

Looking at Shi Ye's cold eyes, Gu Jinlan was a little scared again, and said weakly: "Can you give me a cigarette and let me explain it to you slowly?"

Shi Ye’s jaw was taut, as if he was trying his best to endure it.

Gu Jinlan whispered, "In the interrogation room, when a prisoner confesses to the police in exchange for leniency, the police will give him a cigarette out of humanitarianism."

Shi Ye said coldly: "The plot you saw on TV?"

Gu Jinlan nodded.

Shi Ye sneered: "Watch less fictional dramas. Reality is not so humanitarian, it's even more cruel."

Gu Jinlan heard a threat or intimidation in Shi Ye's words.

I felt like I had been sentenced to death by him and no explanation was of any use.

She hung her head in frustration, but Shi Ye threw a pack of cigarettes next to her.

Gu Jinlan was stunned for a moment, as if he saw hope.

He was still willing to treat her humanely, which meant he had not sentenced her to death.

Gu Jinlan picked up the cigarette and pressed the issue, "Can I borrow another light?"

Shi Ye raised his eyebrows, "Do you need me to light it for you?"

Gu Jinlan tried hard to force a smile, "No need to be so polite, I can do it myself."

“……” Shi Ye took out a lighter from his trouser pocket and threw it next to Gu Jinlan.

She climbed out of bed holding a cigarette lighter and sat down at the coffee table.

Seeing that Shi Ye was still standing there, he called out, "Mr. Shi, don't be impatient. Come and sit down and listen to me slowly."

Shi Ye turned and looked at Gu Jinlan: "Are you playing psychological tactics with me?"

He was procrastinating and talking about irrelevant things. He must be thinking about something.

Gu Jinlan smiled as he held the cigarette butt in his mouth. "Mr. Shi, you're overthinking it. I dare not play any psychological tactics in front of you."

Admit that she is a fool.

She really wanted to ease the atmosphere, let him relax his guard and ease his hostility towards her, so that he would be more willing to believe what she said.

But it is obvious that Shi Ye is not an ordinary person. He has a strong sense of self and is not easily influenced by others.

Shi Ye sat down on the sofa on the other side of the coffee table and looked at Gu Jinlan leisurely, "Can you tell me now?"

Gu Jinlan exhaled a puff of smoke, looked at him through the curling smoke, and smiled lightly.

It did work. He was obviously more relaxed than when he came in just now, and the aura around him was no longer so overbearing.

"Mr. Shi, first of all, I am not shirking my responsibility. What happened that day was indeed my fault. I solemnly apologize to you. To express my apology, I also left an earring as compensation."

Hearing the word "compensation", Shi Ye frowned.

"Don't be impatient, just listen to me." Gu Jinlan said quickly, "That earring is the most valuable thing I own, which shows that my apology is sincere!"

"And I really didn't know your identity at that time. I thought you were just an ordinary man. I never thought you were the famous Tenth Master."

Gu Jinlan did not deliberately praise Shi Ye in her sincere apology.

Seeing his tense handsome face relax a little, Gu Jinlan continued: "I drank too much that night and walked into the wrong room, so that's what happened. I'm really sorry."

Shi Ye's brows relaxed a little and he lit a cigarette for himself.

Considering her drunken state last night, this explanation is reasonable.

"Mr. Shi, I swear, that night was really just an accident. Becoming Ranran's teacher was just fate, not my elaborate plan."

"I don't have any improper thoughts about you. I really don't like you, and I don't care about your identity or money. I hope you can put aside your suspicion and vigilance towards me."

Hearing this, Shi Ye's hand holding the cigarette suddenly stopped.
