After Annuling, She Seized the World's Heart

Qiao Ning was no longer bored after having a little friend. Every morning, after he got up and finished his homework, he would beg Qiao Nuan to send him to the top floor and find Gu An to play with.

Coincidentally, Qiao Nuan would at times go out on her own to take care of things, so she often entrusted Qiao Ning to Gu An to help take care of the mischievous child.

“Gu An, Qiao Ning has troubled you today too. Thank you for helping me take care of him.”

Qiao Nuan squatted and gave Gu An a hug. She looked at him worriedly. “Have you recovered? You’re still wearing a mask today.”

“I’m almost recovered from my cold. I’m a little worried that I’ll infect Qiao Ning, so I can’t take off my mask yet.” Gu An hugged Qiao Nuan back. “Don’t worry, Ma’am. Qiao Ning and I will behave.”

This child was really too cute. Qiao Nuan held Gu An’s face and planted a kiss on his forehead.

Gu An’s face instantly turned red, feeling the soft touch, and he stood there in a daze.

Qiao Ning protested from the side, “Mommy, I want a kiss too, I want two kisses!”

Qiao Nuan found it funny that this child would be jealous. She also held Qiao Ning’s chubby face and planted a loud kiss on both his cheeks.

“Are you satisfied now?”

“Hehe…” Qiao Ning stood on his tiptoes and gave Qiao Nuan a kiss on the cheek. “I’ll kiss mommy too.”

Qiao Nuan rubbed her son’s head helplessly. “You’re so smart.”

When she stood up, Qiao Nuan saw a man standing not far from where the children were living.

At that moment, Gu Cheng was wearing light-colored home clothes. His temperament was not as fierce as the last time they met. He actually looked a little more gentle.

Although Qiao Nuan did not like this suspicious and toxic man, seeing that the two children were on such good terms, Qiao Nuan could not bear to give him a hard time.

So, Qiao Nuan smiled and greeted Gu Cheng, “Hello, Mr. Gu. I’ve sent Qiao Ning to accompany Gu An. Please take care of him.”

Gu Cheng looked at Qiao Ning, who looked precisely like Gu An after washing his face. He felt very messed up inside.

When he looked at Qiao Nuan again, he felt that she was a woman who had used the child to get close to him with ulterior motives.

He looked at her coldly. “I will take good care of the child. What else do you want to say?”

Qiao Nuan felt that this was indeed a baffling question. She shook her head and replied blankly, “N-nothing.”

‘Ha! She’s still quite calm,’ Gu Cheng thought to himself. It seemed that it would not be easy to figure out this woman’s true intentions. ‘Since that’s the case, let’s see who’s more patient.’

“In that case, Miss Qiao, feel free to leave.”

Even after walking out of the hotel, Qiao Nuan still felt that Gu Cheng was behaving kind of strange. The previous few times, the two had always been at loggerheads. Every time they met, Qiao Nuan always wanted to beat Gu Cheng up. Today, although Gu Cheng was polite, it made Qiao Nuan feel uncomfortable all over.

It was as if she had stepped into the other party’s trap.

The next moment, Qiao Nuan shook her head and brushed away the thought. Her identity as a doctor was still well hidden. As a single mother, there was nothing for Gu Cheng to covet.

However, what Qiao Nuan did not know was that her intuition was not wrong. Gu Cheng was coveting the most precious asset of a single mother—her child.

When they met at the hospital, Qiao Ning did not like Gu Cheng very much. She felt that he had always had a gloomy face and looked very fierce.

In the past two days, however, Qiao Ning had spent more time with Gu An, and from the child’s words, Qiao Nuan understood her father. She was no longer cautious of Gu Cheng, who had a serious expression.

“Mr. Gu, How are you?” Qiao Ning waved and greeted Gu Cheng politely.

Gu Cheng’s heart softened. “Hello, Qiao Ning.”

Gu Cheng was supposed to go to the company today, but he changed his mind after seeing Qiao Ning.

Gu Cheng thought that the child would always be innocent no matter what the adults were up to. Moreover, Qiao Ning was his own son. Before he found out the truth, he had to build a good relationship with Qiao Ning.

Thinking of this, Gu Cheng couldn’t help but ask Qiao Ning, “Qiao Ning, do you want me to be your father?”

This question confused Qiao Ning. He blinked and thought for a while before answering.

“Mr. Gu, you like my mother too?”

Gu Cheng didn’t expect Qiao Ning to misinterpret his meaning, but he didn’t want to explain too much to Qiao Ning. “No, I just want to be your father.”

“I am indeed a baby that everyone loves.” Qiao Ning held her face with both hands and sighed in distress. “Mr. Gu, although you are also excellent, I want Mr. Huo to be my father more.”

Gu Cheng could not help but feel frustrated.

Gu An interrupted unhappily from the side. “Qiao Ning, why don’t you want to be a father’s child? My father is clearly the best in the world!”

“Every father is the best in his child’s eyes.” Qiao Ning patted Gu An, attempting to comfort him. “But I’ve never had a father before, so I wanted to choose the one I like the most. Compared to your father, I like Mr. Huo more.”

In the hospital, Huo Ting suddenly sneezed..
