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

Chapter 227 He actually brought Lele to see her?

Gu Zhiyao naturally wouldn't be bothered by Zhong Yi for long. After all, as a representative of a foreign country, she followed proper procedures in such a formal setting, and no one would be too casual or intimate with them.

Moreover, these meetings all had fixed times, and Gu Zhiyao left the venue and returned to the hotel after the time was up.

She sought out Lin Yu and spoke to her about Zhong Yi.

Lin Yu didn't know Zhong Yi, but coincidentally, a while ago a celebrity had a relationship with Zhong Yi, which caused quite a stir. However, Zhong Yi used his power to suppress it and gave the celebrity a lot of compensation, so the matter was dropped.

Therefore, Lin Yu immediately said with concern, "Does it really have to be this way? There's no other choice but him. This person is utterly despicable and his methods are extremely vile and vile. I'm afraid you'll suffer the consequences."

“I know, but he’s the most suitable right now. He’s good in every way and I can make use of him,” Gu Zhiyao said calmly.

"But……"

"Ayu, I understand your concerns, but I'm not the same person I used to be. No one can take advantage of me unless I want to. Do you believe me?"

"Alright, since you've gone this far, I have no choice but to trust you. But you must tell me if you need anything. It'll be more convenient for me to handle many things."

"Yes, I will need your help. Don't worry, I will definitely ask you for help."

"Row."

After finishing her video call with Lin Yu, Gu Zhiyao saw that she had some free time, so she decided to go back to the orphanage.

When she appeared alive and well in front of the headmistress, the headmistress was almost petrified.

Gu Zhiyao took the lap of the hospital director's arm as she always did, and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, Director, I had no choice but to do that at the time, and I'm sorry for making you sad."

The dean, having recovered his composure, shook his head, then grasped her hand and choked out, "Although I don't know why you had to do that, it's good that you're alive. When I thought you were really gone, I was so sad that I couldn't sleep for several days. I went to the back hill and looked at your photo all night. And those children, they missed you so much too, and they went to talk to you almost every day."

At that moment, the dean happened to be on the back hill, so he took Gu Zhiyao to her grave.

Gu Zhiyao found that the grave had been cleaned up and some fresh flowers had been placed there, so it didn't look like it had been there for very long.

Such a large bouquet of flowers could not have been arranged by the director, as it would have been too expensive, and the orphanage needed the money so much.

Could it be Arabic?

Or perhaps Lin Houze?

The dean told her that it was He Yi who brought it!

I was here just last week!

"Back then, your funeral arrangements were all made by Mr. Quan. I thought they were considering that you had worked at the He Group for two years. But I never expected that Mr. He would come to see you so often, and stay for one or two hours at a time. What's even stranger is that he brought a child with him. I heard that he was his son. Especially on the anniversary of your death every year, the father and son would always arrive on time. Once I saw Mr. He guiding the child to toast you from afar."

Gu Zhiyao was also stunned.

A child.

Is it...Lele?

She never expected this to happen!

She never imagined that He Yi would bring Lele to pay respects to her.

Is it because of a guilty conscience, or because...?

So Lele already knows her identity? She knows she's her biological mother?

Seeing that Gu Zhiyao was very agitated, the headmistress gently called to her, "Zhiyao, what's wrong?"

Gu Zhiyao naturally couldn't tell the dean about Lele's situation, and said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little surprised."

"Yes, it was quite unexpected. It's a pity I didn't dare ask him, or even get close to him."

They stayed there for a while before leaving to return to the orphanage.

"By the way, Zhiyao, now that you're still alive, there's no need for this grave?" the headmistress suddenly asked.

Gu Zhiyao pondered for a moment, then asked the dean, "What do you think?"

"According to superstition, it's true that we shouldn't keep it any longer, since it's considered unlucky. How about this, the temple in the west of the city is very efficacious, I'll go there tomorrow and ask how to handle it."

"Okay, thank you, Dean."

"You're welcome. It's good that you're alive." The headmistress looked at her, her eyes welling up with tears again.

Gu Zhiyao was also filled with emotion, and then her thoughts returned to the time when He Yi brought Lele to pay respects to her. Later, they returned to the orphanage and happened to arrive at the house where the fire had occurred years ago.

The dean told Gu Zhiyao, "That Mr. He has come here a few times. Once he even brought his child and pointed inside, telling the child that this was the place where his father and mother first met. His father was trapped in a fire, and his mother risked her life to run in and stay with him. It was from that time that his father promised to marry his mother. I didn't dare to get close at the time, and I only vaguely heard that he said something like that! I never expected that Mr. He, who seemed so aloof and indifferent on the surface, would be such a nostalgic person."

Gu Zhiyao was startled again upon hearing this.

Did he really say that?

But then she suddenly remembered that he had always thought that the person who accompanied him back then was Zheng Yuanxi!

So, when he said "mom" to Lele, he was referring to Zheng Yuanxi?

Yes, he had already decided to give the child to Zheng Yuanxi and treat her as his own child, so why would he mention to Lele that she was the biological mother?

The emotion that had touched Gu Zhiyao instantly cooled down. She shook her head, gave a self-deprecating smile, and then resolutely walked away.

Afterwards, the children all came home from school. Although they didn't understand why Gu Zhiyao had come back to life, they were all happy. They excitedly grabbed Gu Zhiyao's hands and called her "sister." Looking at their innocent faces, Gu Zhiyao was also deeply moved. She took out gifts for everyone and played with them.

At the invitation of the dean's mother, she stayed to have dinner with everyone. Gu Zhiyao told the dean's mother that she was now the deputy mayor of an economically developed city in Canada. The dean's mother was pleasantly surprised and happy. Gu Zhiyao took out a bank card and handed it to the dean's mother.

The hospital director was taken aback and quickly refused, "The card you gave me back then still has a lot of money in it, and I've never used it."

"It's alright. The orphanage has high expenses. You can use this money to buy more things for the children, or if they want to go on a graduation trip, you can give them some from here. Although we are orphans, we also have the right to enjoy the same happiness as others, right?"

When the dean heard Gu Zhiyao say this, she immediately guessed that Gu Zhiyao was thinking about her own life when she was young, when even eating was a problem, let alone playing or traveling.

So the headmistress accepted it, saying with tears in her eyes, "All the children who come here have suffered hardships. I hope that each of them can change their destiny and live a good life like you have in the future."

"I definitely will. Please take good care of yourself and don't be so reluctant to eat. Eat when you're hungry. I've called you 'Dean Mom' since I was little, so you are my mom. I hope you're doing well."

"Okay, I'll do as you say. By the way, how long are you staying this time?"

"I'll be staying for a while. I'll come back to see you when I have time. You can contact me anytime if you need anything. Oh, and you can also contact Ayu."

“Ayu is a good girl, and Mr. Lin is also very kind. He often brings us a lot of things and gives us a lot of money. Zhiyao, don’t worry, the children’s lives now are different from your generation. They are much better now,” the headmistress said excitedly.

"Mmm." Gu Zhiyao's eyes were also glistening with tears.

Around eight o'clock, she left the orphanage, which was located in the city center, and strolled along the bustling streets.

At that moment, He Yi was also driving along the road.

Today, Gu Zhiyao appeared before him as if she had come back from the dead, which shocked him greatly. He couldn't calm down all day and couldn't even concentrate on his work. After get off work, he just wandered around aimlessly.
