Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 66 Principal Gu's Baby Bunny

Anyone who knew that after being cuckolded, they had also raised a child for their lover would be filled with hatred. Li's father was a normal man, so naturally he would care. He didn't have much affection for Li's mother, but years ago, he made a vow to her that his only heir would be Li Wenru. Now, looking back and thinking about how he had taken precautions all these years and hadn't had a single illegitimate child, Li's father was filled with immense regret!

But the matter did not end there. Li Wenru was still unaware of the truth at this point. After investigating, Li's father learned that Li Wenru had no idea he was not his biological son, and that Li's mother had never told him his true identity. He did not hold a grudge against him, but he hated Li's mother and Li Nanmi, and thus became even closer to Li Nanmi.

Li Nanmi was a child brought over by her mother from her ex-husband's family, as mentioned before. Although her father didn't dislike her, he never treated her like his own daughter. After Li Nanmi turned eighteen, she moved out. Although she moved out, she still came home frequently. Li Wenru never suspected her purpose in coming home before. At the time, he thought his sister couldn't let go of him because Li Nanmi was genuinely good to him back then.

Until recently, before his condition started to deteriorate, a friend Li Wenru met online had run into trouble. Although they had never met in person, they were very close. That friend was in dire need of money, and Li Wenru himself was not short of money. He planned to help his friend out, but at the time he was at school and only had his monthly allowance. All the money he had saved since childhood was at home. So he asked his teacher for leave and only went home for a short period of time during evening self-study. He didn't bother Gu Zhichu to sign the form, so he was unaware of the situation.

Li Wenru's home is the old Li family house. Currently, only Li Wenru and his father live there. Li Wenru lives at school except during winter and summer vacations, so only Li's father should live in the old house.

But that night, Li Wenru's worldview shattered.

He rushed home and bumped into two people entangled on the living room sofa as soon as he entered. At first, he thought they were his father and his new lover, but the two looked panicked when they saw him. In the chaos, Li Wenru recognized their faces: one was his father, and the other was his sister.

Ultimately, Li's father could no longer suppress his hatred and attacked Li Nanmi, who was closest to him.

Li Nanmi's biological father wasn't very capable, and their divorce was due to disagreements with Li's mother. After Li Nanmi married Li's father, she finally enjoyed the life of a wealthy young lady that her mother had talked about. She became addicted to this vanity. To avoid her leaving and her father forgetting her, thus losing her comfortable life, Li Nanmi had been going back to the old house ever since she moved out. This was the reason she went back so often, and it was because of this that Li's father had an opportunity to take advantage of her.

Li Nanmi and Li's father had no blood relation at all. Li's father comforted himself with this thought, and then comfortably lured Li Nanmi into his bed.

As a result, Li Wenru witnessed it.

Li Wenru was almost driven mad. He was raised as the heir of the family and naturally had to maintain a clear sense of right and wrong. But what he saw in front of him was a devastating blow.

What devastated him even more was that, after being caught in the act, Li's father, in a fit of rage, revealed that Li Wenru was not his biological son.

Li Wenru left in a daze, his mind a jumble of thoughts all day. In the end, he decided to trust science. He collected all the hair and other things left behind by everyone in his family and sent them to the hospital for examination.

The test results were the same as those of Li's father; the three of them, mother and children, had no blood relation to Li's father.

Li Wenru didn't know whether to be glad that his sister and father weren't illegitimate, or to be sad that he wasn't his father's biological son. He asked his homeroom teacher for half a day off. Knowing that he had good grades, the teacher didn't take it to heart and granted him leave. Li Wenru planned to go back to the old house to have a good talk with his father, but perhaps because he was having bad luck lately, his father wasn't home. Instead, the new young housekeeper reached out to him for help.

Driven by the acute realization that he had no heir, Li's father did something somewhat insane. He needed a child of his own, yet he couldn't guarantee that the child in his mistress's womb would be his. Caught in this contradictory state of mind, he lost his head. He secretly hired someone to investigate girls who matched his appearance and ensured that these girls had clean private lives. Then, he had them all brought to the old house and locked in the basement, all for one purpose: to have children for him.

Even so, he still adopted a strategy of casting a wide net, and the young and beautiful new nanny who came to the old house fell victim to his evil deeds. When she woke up, she was crying in despair. A servant who had worked in the old house for more than 30 years couldn't bear to see her so desperate, so she told the nanny what had happened in the basement of the old house.

The young nanny was quite bold. Out of compassion, she stayed at the old house, trying to find a way to rescue the women in the basement. In the end, she realized that she didn't have the strength to do so, so she went to the young owner of the old house, Li Wenru, for help.

The nanny also brought Li Wenru some devastating news: while cleaning the room where Li Nanmi usually stayed, she found a pregnancy test strip that Li Nanmi had left in the trash can. There was a clear colored band in the test area. The nanny didn't know much about these things, so she looked it up online and found that such a test result was positive, indicating that she was pregnant.

This means that Li Nanmi is pregnant, and as for whose child it is, there's no need to ask anymore.

Li Wenru was utterly devastated. Although he was the heir, he was not yet an adult and had never been involved in the family business. Apart from having some money, he had no power whatsoever. He wanted to rescue the girls in the basement of the old house, but it was heavily guarded, and the people there wouldn't listen to him. He couldn't do anything about it.

So what happened before happened.

Then, Gu Zhichu got involved.

Li Nanmi has taken a liking to Gu Zhichu. In the past, Li Wenru would never have objected, but now it's not an option. Li Wenru goes to Li Nanmi and warns her not to hurt Principal Gu. During their argument, Li Nanmi tells the truth.

“Yes! I’m not good enough for your Principal Gu! But what else can I do? We’re still father and daughter in name only, and there’s no future for us. But he wants this child.” Li Nanmi looked at Li Wenru with a stubborn expression. Having this child would also provide her with a guarantee for her life in the wealthy family. “He can’t let outsiders know about our relationship, so he can only find a scapegoat. He’ll marry me to raise his child. And this scapegoat can’t be unknown. I’m a young lady, I can’t marry a poor boy. I didn’t intend to provoke Principal Gu, but I had no choice. I just mentioned it casually, and he said that Principal Gu has connections that even he can’t match. I can be a scapegoat and also bring the family to another peak. Why not? Wenru, you’re also a member of the Li family. The prosperity of the family is also your responsibility.”

A prosperous family?

Li Wenru was helpless. As a scion of a wealthy family, his family was everything, but he did not want such a family.

In the end, Li Wenru did not continue arguing with Li Nanmi. He was distraught for several days. He had thought about asking Gu Zhichu for help to rescue the group of girls under the old house, but the person who did this was, after all, the man who had raised him for nearly eighteen years. Family ties and morality were intertwined in his mind, making him unable to ask.

During those few days of his inner turmoil, Gu Zhichu got into trouble.

He inquired about what had happened and pieced together the truth from fragments of information. Even after learning that Principal Gu was safe and sound, he remained anxious for several days before finally deciding to tell Gu Zhichu the whole story.

"So, teacher, I'm really sorry!"

Filled with remorse, Li Wenru lowered his head and awaited Gu Zhichu's verdict.

"This is none of your business." After hearing the truth of the matter, Gu Zhichu and Yu Liu had mixed feelings. If they had to summarize their feelings in one sentence, it would probably be: You rich people really know how to play games. The complexity and bizarreness of this story could basically fill 52 episodes of a melodramatic soap opera.

However, this matter has little to do with Li Wenru. He didn't make the mistake, so he shouldn't feel so guilty.

"Actually, as your principal, I am quite pleased. Not only did you do nothing wrong, but you should also be commended in some aspects. Not everyone has your awareness and courage to choose to help the right side rather than your relatives. You are able to distinguish right from wrong and actively try to find ways to rescue those victimized girls. For you, you have already done very well." Gu Zhichu patiently guided Li Wenru, helping him rebuild his confidence without hurting his self-esteem as much as possible.

"You've only just come of age, and there's still so much to learn. Right now, the most important thing is the college entrance exam. What your father did has crossed the line into legal matters. Your family will depend on you to support them in the future. Even if you don't want to inherit the family business, you still need to plan for your future. Studying is a great way out. As for those trapped girls, leave them to the teachers. The teachers will rescue them safely!"

Gu Zhichu's comforting words dispelled all the emotions that Li Wenru had been holding in these past few days. He knew that he would no longer have to face these difficult things. His teacher would stand in front of him, shield him from the wind and rain, and create a bright future for him.

Although they all knew that the girls could never be unharmed again, the bad guys should be punished as they deserved.

Yu Jianghai's investigation into Li's father was also nearing its end. When Gu Zhichu was kidnapped because of Li Nanmi, the kidnappers did not call Li's father. Li Nanmi was not tied up at the kidnapping scene. She had her cell phone in her clothes. Yu Jianghai even found the phone call Li Nanmi made to Li's father during the kidnapping on her cell phone.

If it were really a kidnapping, where would Li Nanmi get so much freedom?

It was also because Li's father was too arrogant, thinking that he could handle things perfectly with just two mercenaries. In reality, once this matter was exposed, it was full of loopholes!

Now, with the evidence provided by Li Wenru, Yu Jianghai immediately led his men to the Li family's old house and found the girl being held captive in the basement.

Only about a month has passed since Li's father discovered that Li Wenru was not his biological son. However, he has already captured more than forty girls in the basement. Many of the girls have reported themselves missing and filed cases with the police. The police have searched for a long time but have not been able to find any trace of these girls. It turns out that they have all been hidden by Li's father.

With witnesses and physical evidence readily available, and the case irrefutably concluded, Li's father was brought to justice immediately. The Li family was left leaderless, and Li Wenru, the heir, was immediately pushed forward. However, Li Wenru knew his own limitations. He directly presented a paternity test report to all the relatives of the Li family, indicating that he was not of the Li family bloodline and could not inherit the Li family business. After that, he returned to school to continue his studies.

The bad guys have received their due punishment, and the good guys continue to live their lives.

In May, the college entrance examination was fast approaching, and Gu Zhichu was so busy that he barely had time to rest. He wasn't busy with the students' exams; at this point, there was nothing he could do to help, and it was up to the students themselves. He was mainly busy dealing with the heads of various universities.

Everyone knows that Guqi Middle School always produces top scorers in the college entrance examination. Most of the students from the school have already entered key universities. Every university needs these talents to support it. Guqi Middle School seems to have a lot of students, but there aren't enough to go around to all the universities. So, it's unclear when it started, but it seems like the universities have made a pact to visit Guqi Middle School in advance. Once they arrive, they find the promising students who can compete for the top score in the college entrance examination during the students' break time and introduce the advantages of their school to them.

These officials came in waves, and the students were overwhelmed. Then it was time for the principal to step in. Gu Zhichu did everything in her power to get rid of them for the sake of her students.

"Principal Gu~"

The soft arm brushed against Gu Zhichu's chest intentionally or unintentionally, and the woman leaned her whole body forward.

Gu Zhichu immediately trembled and instantly moved three steps away from the woman: "No, you guys get out of here right now, or I'll unleash my dogs!"

In order to be able to close the door and unleash the dog when necessary, Gu Zhichu specially asked someone to get her a German Shepherd, and she was full of confidence when talking about letting the dog bite people.

"Why not? I've already offered myself to you, Principal Gu. You're single, and I'm single too. Aren't we a perfect match?"

The woman chuckled as she spoke. Having spent a long time with Gu Zhichu, she naturally understood her personality in private, so joking with her felt quite natural.

"Just let me in for a bit, okay? Studying is useless at a time like this. I can talk to them for a while, it won't take up much of their time. If the top scorer in the college entrance exam chooses our school, I'll give you a commission, how about that? If all else fails, I'll really offer myself to you!"

"Men, unleash the dogs!"

"Oh dear, I didn't get in again, really!"

The woman stomped her foot, turned around with a sour face, and left.

Yu Liu had seen this scene many times. In fact, Gu Zhichu was not as unpopular with women as the information said. In fact, he was quite popular. However, Gu Zhichu always had a way of inexplicably getting rid of women who were interested in him. When they met again, the women would lose interest in him. After all, no one wants to offer their warm face to a cold backside.

"...So if you keep going like this, you'll never find a girlfriend!!"

"Who said I can't find one?" Gu Zhichu retorted confidently. "Don't you just want me to find a woman to spend my life with? Don't I already have one?"

"You're pregnant?" I didn't know that.

"Aren't you?"

"..."

"It's okay if you don't admit it, anyway you're a woman, and you'll spend your whole life with me, so that counts as one!"

"..." (╯‵皿′)╯︵┻━┻I'm still a baby, okay?!
