Chapter 1 I am your mother
"Who are you? How did you get in?"

Two voices, one male and one female, sounded at the same time, with surprise and vigilance.

Gu Qingyin, who was standing on the stairs, was so angry that she laughed. She took a closer look at the person downstairs. He was wearing a black suit and had a cold face, but he was handsome. His features were somewhat similar to her man, especially the teardrop mole under the right corner of his eye, which was exactly the same.

She frowned and asked, "Are you from the Huo family? What are you doing here so early in the morning? Huo Yunjing is not at home."

The man downstairs looked at the gorgeous woman who turned her home clothes into fashionable items and said in a low voice, "You dare to break in even though you know this is the Huo family. Who gave you the courage?"

"Why would I need the courage to go back to my own home?" Gu Qingyin looked impatient. "If you don't leave, don't blame me for being rude."

The man sneered, took out his cell phone and dialed the number, saying only two words, "Come in."

A few seconds later, a group of tall men in black suits walked in, and the huge living room suddenly became crowded.

The man looked at Gu Qingyin and said without question: "This lady broke into a private house. Send her to the police station. The police should be able to help her find her home."

Gu Qingyin was suspicious and said loudly: "Butler Li!"

No one responded.

The man's eyes narrowed slightly. He even found out the surname of the old housekeeper. Who is behind this woman?

The bodyguards approached quickly, and Gu Qingyin kicked him away, feeling a little confused. What was going on? Where were all the Huo family's bodyguards? Why did they let these outsiders break in?

The bodyguards saw that she was very skilled and knew they couldn't take her down from the stairs, so they wanted to take the elevator up and surround her from the front and back.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyin's face changed drastically. She turned around and ran upstairs, shouting, "Stop! You are not allowed to go upstairs!"

The man narrowed his eyes slightly and walked upstairs with long legs. He wanted to see what shameful things were upstairs.

No matter how powerful Gu Qingyin was, she was just one person. She had to let her bodyguard take the man upstairs. She wished she could use a talisman to sweep away the crowd in front of her, but the Xuanshu Association had a rule that ordinary people could not be attacked.

Gu Qingyin stood at the door of the baby's room, her face as gloomy as water and her eyes as sharp as arrows. "What on earth do you want to do?"

The man stared at the door behind her and asked, "What's in there?"

Gu Qingyin clenched her fists, trying her best to suppress the urge to attack. "I'll ask you one last time, who are you and what are you doing in the Huo family?"

The man's gaze shifted and fell on her face. Two seconds later, he opened his thin lips and said, "I am Huo Xingye, the current head of the Huo family."

Gu Qingyin was suddenly stunned. The anger on her face had not yet dissipated, but was covered with a layer of astonishment. She looked a little silly with her eyes wide open and her mouth open.

"How come you have the same name as my son?"

"Your son?" Huo Xingye frowned, his tone puzzled.

Gu Qingyin looked him up and down and nodded, "My son is also Huo Yunjing's son." At this point, Gu Qingyin became even more confused, "Wait, you said you are the head of the Huo family, then what about Huo Yunjing? Did you usurp his throne?"

This shouldn't be the case. She's only been gone for half a month. Even if someone usurped the throne, Huo Yunjing shouldn't have been defeated so quickly. Although this man is shameless and extremely arrogant, he is still capable.

Huo Xingye looked puzzled, "So, Huo Yunjing is your husband?"

Gu Qingyin hesitated for a moment before nodding, "I guess so." Although they haven't gotten the marriage certificate yet, they have done everything they should do, and three lives have been taken.

Huo Xingye couldn't help it, and said with a dark face and gnashing teeth: "Then how come you don't know that Huo Yunjing has been dead for ten years."

Gu Qingyin gasped, eyes full of disbelief, "How is this possible!" She lowered her head and raised her hands to start calculating, the more she calculated, the uglier her face became. She had chased the alien beast into the alien space, and in just two days, twenty years had passed outside! Twenty years! How many twenty years can a person have in their life? In these twenty years, Huo Yunjing died, and her six-month-old babies grew up.

Gu Qingyin's breathing became rapid, and she found it hard to accept this fact. She turned around abruptly and pushed open the door of the baby's room.

When she first learned she was pregnant, she hesitated for a long time before deciding to move to the Huo family to give birth. Every item in the baby room, from the crib to the bibs, was carefully selected by her, but her expression changed at just one look.

The baby's room was empty. Not only was there no one there, but not even a single item that the baby usually used was left.

Gu Qingyin pursed her red lips, and the air pressure around her was extremely low.

"Can't continue?" Huo Xingye's voice was cold and icy. "Tell me, who asked you to come?"

Gu Qingyin turned around with a complicated look on her face. "I'm not acting. I really do live here. I'm Gu Qingyin." She looked directly at Huo Xingye and spoke word by word, "I'm your mother."

The head of the Huo family is also called Huo Xingye, so he can only be the son of her and Huo Yunjing.

The next second, Huo Xingye sneered, "I am your father."

Gu Qingyin's forehead jumped. She tried to hold it in, but couldn't bear it any longer. She rolled up her sleeves and rushed forward, "You little bastard! You're rebelling!" She stepped forward and grabbed Huo Xingye by the collar, dragged him into the house, closed the door and put down a ban.

The bodyguards outside the door rushed forward but could not open it no matter what.

Inside the door, Gu Qingyin sneered, clenched his fist, and raised his hand to hit.

Huo Xingye would naturally not just stand there and wait to be beaten. He had been trained as the heir of the Huo family since he was a child, so his skills were naturally not weak. Unfortunately, he was not as good as Gu Qingyin at all. They were not even on the same level.

This one-sided beating lasted a full five minutes.

By the time Gu Qingyin stopped, Huo Xingye could no longer be seen in his original appearance.

Gu Qingyin sat down on the sofa next to the crib and raised her chin. "Can you speak properly now?"

Huo Xingye remained silent. In the past five minutes, he had fought back, been shocked, and been angry. Now he was completely calm.

"I really am your mother." As soon as Gu Qingyin opened her mouth, Huo Xingye's expression stiffened again, with suppressed anger in his eyes.

Gu Qingyin waved her hands, looking helpless. "I don't mean to take advantage of you. Just listen to me first."

Huo Xingye waited quietly for a long time. Gu Qingyin didn't speak again. He endured the pain and urged, "Are you going to tell me or not?"

"Why are you urging me? I have to think about where to start!" Gu Qingyin frowned slightly, "Has Huo Yunjing ever told you what I do for a living?"

Huo Xingye shook his head.

Gu Qingyin clicked his tongue and said, "I'm a celestial master, the kind that catches ghosts and demons, you know that, right?"

Huo Xingye looked at her solemnly without saying a word.

Gu Qingyin rolled her eyes and continued, "Back then, Huo Yunjing and I got married by agreement. Although we were husband and wife, there was no love between us. It was mainly for the purpose of curing the disease. However, people cannot control themselves at certain times, and then I got pregnant."

"Because I had to take care of the baby, I didn't go out to take orders for more than a year. Huo Yunjing was so caring every day, and I had a good impression of him." Gu Qingyin pondered for two seconds and nodded, "I think he should have a good impression of me too."

"I originally thought that it's not impossible to get married first and fall in love later. After all, Huo Yunjing's face is really what I like." At this point, Gu Qingyin sighed, "Unfortunately, things didn't go as I wished."
