After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Chapter 457 Do you believe him?

“Assistant Quan, you are indeed very optimistic. You know how to fill me with hope,” He Yi said.

"President, you flatter me. I was just telling the truth." Quan Xinyu chuckled. After all these events, his status in He Yi's eyes had risen, and they were no longer as reserved with each other as before. Love really is a wonderful thing!

He Yi chatted with Quan Xinyu about some work-related matters, gave some instructions, and then ended the call.

My mood calmed down considerably, and I soon fell asleep.

The next day, I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing.

"Dad? Where are you?" It's Niu Niu.

He Yi glanced at the time and realized it was already eight o'clock!

He promised to make breakfast for the little girl!

"Dad? Are you listening, Dad?"

"Yes, Dad's here," He Yi replied, his voice hoarse from the early morning.

Niu Niu's childish voice continued, "Daddy, didn't you say you'd make me a sandwich for breakfast today? But I didn't see it."

"Uh, I'm sorry, Niu Niu, Daddy had to go back to the company because of an urgent matter. He's on his way and is almost here. I'll make it for you in a bit."

"You're at the door?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then come in first, Dad!"

After hanging up the phone, He Yi rubbed his temples. He had been too tired lately, which was why he could sleep so soundly even in this kind of environment!

Being cramped in such a small space was extremely uncomfortable. After getting out of the car, He Yi found that his legs were sore and even a little numb.

He stretched for a bit, and only went into the villa when he was almost done.

Niu Niu immediately came to open the door, took his hand, and called out sweetly, "Daddy!"

Looking at her charming and adorable appearance, He Yi's heart melted, and he quickly squatted down and kissed her.

"Haha, it itches! Daddy, you haven't shaved!" the little girl giggled.

“Dad is too busy, he doesn’t have time to do these things. Why don’t you help Dad, Niu Niu?” He Yi said with a doting smile.

“Okay, Daddy, let’s go to the bathroom. You can use Uncle Xiao’s razor.” The little girl led him inside.

As He Yi walked, he looked around for Gu Zhiyao, then asked his daughter, "Where's Mom?"

"Mom is making omelets in the kitchen!"

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the bathroom.

He Yi took Xiao Lin's razor, shaved off his stubble, and washed his face. He looked refreshed and radiant.

"Daddy is so handsome!" Niu Niu exclaimed happily as she looked in the mirror.

He Yi looked down at her and said with a smile, "Really? Then remember to tell your mother how handsome your father is?"

"Huh?" The little girl was taken aback at first, then grinned mischievously, "Okay, Daddy, I definitely will."

Hehe, you little devil!

He Yi rubbed her head and led her out of the bathroom. Just as they reached the living room, they saw Gu Zhiyao coming out of the kitchen. Gu Zhiyao was also taken aback when she saw him.

"Good morning!" He Yi greeted him casually, then added somewhat apologetically, "I promised to make sandwiches for Niu Niu, but I overslept. Last night, Quan Xinyu called to report on some work matters, and I spent some time with him. I didn't go to sleep until almost one o'clock, and then..."

"It's alright, Aunt Hua has already taken care of it." Gu Zhiyao said hesitantly, then looked at her daughter, "Niu Niu, go and call your brother out for breakfast."

"Okay, Mom! Dad, you sit down first." The little girl ran off.

He Yi stood still, motionless.

Gu Zhiyao put her things down, glanced back at him, took a deep breath, and spoke again, "Come and eat with us, Aunt Hua has prepared your portion."

"Oh, okay!" He Yi strode over and sat down.

Soon Niu Niu and Chen Chen came out. Chen Chen first greeted his father with a calm demeanor, and then everyone sat down.

Niu Niu sat next to He Yi in a row, while Chen Chen and Gu Zhiyao sat opposite her. Niu Niu faced her brother, and Gu Zhiyao faced He Yi.

It's clearly a picture of a family of four sitting together.

Gu Zhiyao hadn't expected things to turn out this way, and she felt a little awkward. But Niu Niu kept trying to liven things up, and seeing that the two little ones were having a great time, she didn't want to spoil their fun, so she gradually relaxed as well.

The whole scene naturally becomes more heartwarming.

He Yi watched all this silently, in a very good mood, and even secretly took a picture when Gu Zhiyao wasn't paying attention.

However, just as breakfast was almost finished, Xiao Lin returned!

The two little ones didn't think much of it, and greeted Xiao Lin politely and warmly, happy that he was back, but Gu Zhiyao's mood was different.

She felt as if she had done something wrong!

Her smile froze instantly, her body stiffened, and she stared blankly at Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin approached, his face beaming with his usual smile. "After eating bread, bacon, and meat over there for days, seeing these side dishes makes me feel like I'm ascending to heaven!"

Gu Zhiyao quickly got up and walked over to him, saying, "Brother Xiao Lin, didn't you say your flight was this afternoon?"

"The workers over there are on strike, so we moved our flight up." Xiao Lin took the porridge from Aunt Hua and sat down.

He greeted He Yi before starting to eat.

The atmosphere naturally changed, and Chenchen seemed to sense something was off. He, who rarely spoke, started asking Xiaolin about his business trip.

A smile appeared in Xiao Lin's eyes as he chatted earnestly with the little girl. Then Niu Niu joined in, asking if Uncle Xiao had brought her a gift. Xiao Lin immediately laughed and said, "Of course, anyone could not bring one, but how could I forget our little princess!"

Niu Niu smiled proudly, "Thank you, Uncle Xiao. I was just asking. Of course I know you remember. I'm Uncle Xiao's little darling!"

Haha, this girl is really something.

Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but laugh.

As He Yi watched, he unconsciously revealed the pride and doting affection of a father.

This breakfast was a pleasant one.

Gu Zhiyao and Xiao Lin went to the study to explain why He Yi was there.

Xiao Lin smiled at Gu Zhiyao, indicating that she didn't need to be nervous. Then, his expression turned serious, and he asked Gu Zhiyao, "Zhiyao, you believe it all?"

Gu Zhiyao was taken aback. "Brother Xiao Lin, you mean..."

“I’m sorry, I don’t know why I think that way. Maybe it’s because I’ve always felt that he hasn’t given up and still wants to be with you, especially since he pretended to have amnesia!” Xiao Lin said. “However, even if he did that, it’s because he wants to be with you again, so it’s not a bad thing.”

Xiao Lin meant that He Yi was willing to fabricate such a lie in order to get back together with Gu Zhiyao.

Perhaps that was the truth about the car accident, but Xiao Lin didn't think it was true that Wenya had gotten involved with a powerful figure.

Gu Zhiyao hadn't really thought about these things. She wasn't sure if she was too naive or if she subconsciously lacked any aversion to them, so when He Yi said it like that, she had no doubts at all.
