No one wanted to stop He Sisi from recognizing Wu Zhihua and his daughter more than Su Lin.

Qi Ning did this for the mission, but Su Lin genuinely wanted to get revenge on her husband and didn't want Wu Zhihua to know that he had an illegitimate daughter.

Knowing this, Qi Ning entrusted the matter to Su Lin with peace of mind.

Just then, Wu Zhihua went out of town on business and wouldn't be back for at least a month or two, so Su Lin took advantage of his absence and quickly got to work.

After He Sisi visited Qi Ning at the hospital that day, Gu Lixuan found out about it.

When Gu Lixuan learned that He Sisi had asked Qi Ning for help but was rejected, he lost face and had another argument with her, telling her to stay home and take care of the children and stop thinking about asking for help.

He Sisi stayed home to take care of the child during this time, while Gu Lixuan continued to work at the factory.

Gu Lixuan secretly gave gifts to the factory director and is expected to become a formal employee of the factory. If he becomes a formal employee, his salary and benefits will increase significantly.

Just as Gu Lixuan was waiting for news with high hopes, he suddenly received news of his dismissal.

Gu Lixuan was completely bewildered: "This is impossible! Why would the factory manager let me leave? I want to see the factory manager!"

The person in charge waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, alright, do you think you can just see the factory manager whenever you want? You'd better pack your things and get out of here, or I'll kick you out."

"No, I must see the factory manager. I gave him a gift, and he's already turning his back on me?"

Ignoring all attempts to stop him, Gu Lixuan rushed to the factory manager's office. Unexpectedly, the factory manager turned his back on him and refused to admit that he had accepted the gift.

"Nonsense! When did I accept your gift? Throw him out!"

Gu Lixuan was carried out of the factory by two men and thrown out like that.

He got up and kicked in the air towards the factory gate, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Pah! If this place doesn't want me, there are plenty of other places that will. It's not like your factory is the only one in the city."

Gu Lixuan turned and left, intending to find another job.

However, Gu Lixuan encountered setbacks everywhere he went in his job search. Even if he found a job, he would be targeted by the people there, who would even take pleasure in bullying him. At best, they would mock him, and at worst, they would beat and kick him, making it impossible for him to stay.

He Sisi knew about Gu Lixuan's situation but couldn't help him, so she could only worry anxiously at home.

Not long after, He Sisi suddenly received news that her biological father, whom she had been searching for, had passed away more than 20 years ago. It turned out that all her and her mother's years of waiting and searching had been in vain.

Upon hearing the news, He Sisi was devastated and cried her eyes out at home.

Gu Lixuan returned home in the evening after a setback. He had expected to at least have a hot meal when he got back, but when he arrived, he found only a pile of cold pots and pans. He Sisi hadn't cooked at all and was lying on the bed crying incessantly, with the three children crying and making a fuss beside her.

Seeing this, Gu Lixuan was furious and yelled at He Sisi, "I'm working myself to the bone outside trying to make money, and you're at home doing nothing and crying like a baby? You haven't even cooked a meal!"

He Sisi looked up and cried as she told him, "Lixuan, my father is dead. It turns out he died more than 20 years ago."

Gu Lixuan was stunned for a moment before he realized what she was talking about.

He was never optimistic about He Sisi finding her father whom she had never met, and because of this, He Sisi didn't even cook, which made Gu Lixuan even more dissatisfied.

"So what if you're dead? I told you long ago that you wouldn't be found, and even if you were, they wouldn't acknowledge you. Otherwise, they would have already. Now you can give up."

"you!"

He Sisi's eyes widened as she glared at Gu Lixuan: "Gu Lixuan, how could you say that? That's my father!"

"What father? He's just a man who played with your mother. Only you guys took it seriously."

"Gu Lixuan!"

He Sisi screamed at the top of her lungs, looking at him in disbelief. She hadn't expected that Gu Li would not only not offer a word of comfort, but also say such sarcastic things.

In fact, Gu Lixuan was just in a bad mood because of work troubles, and he accidentally blurted out his true feelings. The moment he said it, he knew he had said the wrong thing.

"Alright, alright, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Gu Lixuan touched his hair, slammed the door and left, leaving He Sisi and the three children still crying at home.

After he came out, he spent the little money he had left, found a place to buy some food, and bought two bottles of wine.

Gu Lixuan drank alone until he was completely drunk, and only staggered home late at night.

But just as he reached the edge of a deep ditch, whether by accident or not, he stepped on a pebble, slipped, and fell into the ditch, where a sharp rock stood at the bottom.

"what--"

With a scream from Gu Lixuan, his leg was pierced by that sharp stone.

Gu Lixuan clutched his legs at the bottom of the ditch, howling in agony for help, but it was the middle of the night, and there was no one outside. Who could come to his rescue?

That night, He Sisi waited at home all night, but Gu Lixuan didn't come back.

She was still angry with Gu Lixuan for what he had said, so she didn't go out to look for him, only thinking that he would come back on his own.

To He Sisi's surprise, early the next morning, someone came to tell her that Gu Lixuan had fainted in a ditch outside the alley and had been taken to the hospital; one of his legs was broken.

He Sisi rushed to the hospital with her child, crying, and found that Gu Lixuan's right leg was indeed broken.

"Doctor, doctor, can my husband's leg still be cured?" He Sisi asked, grabbing the doctor's arm.

The doctor shook his head, his face grave: "No, this comrade's injuries are too severe. Moreover, he was injured last night and only brought here this morning. It's too late. It's already a miracle that he's alive."

He Sisi's vision went black, and she immediately fainted.

When He Sisi woke up again, she was also lying in a hospital bed.

"What's wrong with me?"

When the nurse saw that she was awake, she scolded her, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you know you were pregnant?"

"I...I'm pregnant again?" He Sisi asked incredulously.

"Yes," the nurse replied, then added, "It's good that you're awake. Your three children are still crying. Get up and take care of them. Also, you and your spouse haven't paid your hospital and medical bills yet. Go and pay them quickly."

After saying that, the nurse left the ward.

He Sisi lay on the hospital bed, stroking her stomach with one hand, staring blankly at the ceiling of the ward, two lines of tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Child, you've come at the wrong time..."
