The wife he married through an arranged marriage is so sweet, Mr. Lu can't control himself.

"As long as your mother agrees, I can bring this ungrateful wretch into the Gu family right away."

"Presumably adopted from an orphanage."

"Who would have thought that your mother would develop severe depression? I had barely started to mention adoption when she burst into tears, which attracted your grandfather to come and see what was wrong."

"Anyway, it made me never dare to mention adoption again."

"I was actually quite afraid of your grandfather back then."

"Waaah, I really didn't know Sun Qin had contacted your mother in private."

"She also bribed someone to switch your mother's medicine."

"Waaaaah, how did I end up getting involved with someone like that!"

"I clearly told her that she should be a shameful mistress, and I would work with her to make this ungrateful wretch a princess in the Gu family."

"How could she have gotten close to your mother, switched her medication, and killed her?"

"Waaah, it's all my fault! It's all my fault!"

"I remember."

Shen Lifeng's tears flowed incessantly.

"When I was wearing a mascot costume, I entered the mall where you and your mother were. As I passed the children's play area, I turned around and deliberately let you see my face inside the mascot's head. How happy you were, little one!"

"You loved me so much as your father back then."

"As soon as you saw me walking out, you immediately wobbled along happily and followed me."

"I went into the alley, and you thought I was playing with you, so you wobbled along and followed me into the alley."

"When I stopped in the alley and took off the mascot headgear, you even ran happily, rushed over, hugged one of my legs, and shouted in a childish voice with bright eyes, 'Daddy, Daddy, I caught you!'"

"Waaah—"

But this time, Shen Lifeng didn't even have time to cry out loud.

Gu Zhi's expression suddenly hardened, and she stepped forward to deliver a side kick.

He kicked Shen Lifeng away.

I kicked it for my two-year-old self.

The police were stunned.

They were holding Shen Lifeng on either side, but were they holding him so loosely?

How did the person just fly out of their hands?

The bodyguards were stunned.

Some of them even had their mouths open.

Good heavens, that posture, that strength—the lady truly is skilled in martial arts.

Lu Yanshen just returned.

However, because of the police cars blocking the way, his convoy had to stop at the back.

As he got out of the car and was about to walk towards Gu Zhi, Gu Zhi suddenly stepped forward and kicked him from the side, which startled him.

But the next second, he strode over even faster.

However, he stood in front of Gu Zhi.

He had his back to Gu Zhi.

It's clear that even if Gu Zhi takes action, no one will be allowed to do anything to her.

Gu Zhi was already seething with anger; not only was her pale face as cold as iron, but her heart was also as cold as iron.

But Lu Yanshen blocked her way, and she looked at his tall and slender back.

Her face suddenly regained its color.

Her almond-shaped eyes were clear and bright.

Even my whole heart felt warm again.

Even though she was the one who hit him, Lu Yanshen instinctively worried about her, protected her, and shielded her behind him.

Shen Yuyao was completely stunned.

His mouth was open and he couldn't close it.

This was the first time she had seen Gu Zhi violently attack someone.

When Gu Zhi slapped her before, was it because Gu Zhi's wheelchair restricted her movement?

She suddenly remembered what Gu Zhi had said at the Ji family that day: "It's a pity, I'm almost healed, not already healed, otherwise I would definitely kick each of you."

At the time, she didn't believe it; she didn't believe that Gu Zhizhen would kick them herself.

So Gu Zhizhen was capable of doing something like this.

Is it still that good?

The man flew out of the police's grasp.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuyao didn't dare to beg anymore. She immediately ran away in a panic without looking back.

I fell down several times while running.

She was afraid that Gu Zhi would catch up and beat her.

Gu Zhigang said he would beat them to a pulp!

Gu Zhi dared to hit Shen Lifeng in front of the police, so she would definitely dare to hit her too!

Gu Zhi didn't care whether Shen Yuyao had run away or not.

Shen Lifeng was kicked away and fell to the ground.

He was certain his ribs were broken.

He was wincing in pain, sweat pouring down his face.

But he felt even more regret.

He wept bitterly and confessed to Gu Zhi:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry to your mother... I deserve it... I deserve it..."

"You deserve to hit me."

"Waaah, I deserve to die even more!"

"Your mother is dead!"

"Thank goodness your grandfather found you."

The police saw that Shen Lifeng was just lying on the ground repenting and did not seem to intend to pursue the matter of Gu Zhi hitting him.

They all pretended not to have seen Gu Zhi hit someone.

They continued to escort Shen Lifeng into the police car.

Because Gu Zhi kicked Shen Lifeng, Shen Lifeng was in so much pain that he no longer had the strength to struggle.

This time, it was quite easy to get Shen Lifeng into the police car.

Gu Zhi watched as the police cars drove away.

Then he jumped in front of Lu Yanshen.

She looked up with her snow-white face up.

He smiled and said to Lu Yanshen, whose face was already extremely cold:

"Worried? Don't worry, I'm fine. I was the one who hit him, not the other way around."

Lu Yanshen's expression softened considerably, but his cold eyes still betrayed his worry: "Are you alright?"

He was actually asking her if she was alright.

Is it very uncomfortable?

They've all taken action.

But Gu Zhi thought he was asking about her physical condition:

"Didn't I tell you? I was the one who hit him, I only kicked him once, nothing happened to me."

"If you're worried, should I take off my shoes now and let you see if my feet are okay?"

The following sentence is clearly a joke.

Seeing her smiling face made Lu Yanshen's heartache and worry even more suppressed.

His cold eyes softened again: "It's good that you're alright."

Perhaps because she was now completely unguarded around Lu Yanshen, Gu Zhi herself casually remarked:

"I actually hit him because of my two-year-old self. I don't care about him at all."

Lu Yanshen felt a pang of pain in his heart upon hearing this.

Isn't she herself at two years old?

If she separates her two-year-old self from her past self so much, does that mean she also separates her childhood experiences from her present self?

Is this a way she's figured out after going through so much, a way to protect herself from sadness and to be happy every day?

But Lu Yanshen said, "Yes, we don't care about him."

"Of course!" Gu Zhi immediately hugged his arm, her fair face beaming even brighter. "I told you a long time ago, I don't care about Shen Lifeng at all."

Lu Yanshen nodded: "Mm."

"However," Gu Zhi said with a grin, "since we're all getting off here, why don't we just walk back and treat it as a stroll?"

"Hmm." Lu Yanshen naturally had no objections.

He even took the initiative to hold her hand.

Gu Zhi couldn't suppress the upward curve of her lips.

The two walked back hand in hand.

Not long after entering the villa, Gu Zhi's eyes darted around, and she decided not to hold hands anymore.

She went directly behind Lu Yanshen and jumped onto his back.

She asked Lu Yanshen to carry her on his back.

Lu Yanshen's cold eyes were full of doting and indulgence.

He carried her steadily on his back, letting her play around on his back.

She even took him along on the walk.
