Chapter 122: Chapter 122: This Day is Unbearable

"I’ll go wherever I want, get out of my way."

Long Yubei just wouldn’t let her go, "Explain yourself."

"Are you still playing dumb?" Gu Lili glared at him, "I want you to confess. You know what you’ve been hiding from me. There’s no need to hide it anymore!"

Long Yubei thought hard about what he might have concealed from her, then suddenly remembered he had been to Yunanyuan tonight, and she had even called to ask where he was, could she have seen him?

"Did you see me at Yunanyuan?"

Gu Lili pursed her lips and kept silent, which was as good as confirming it.

"So it’s about that, did it really need such a fuss? Couldn’t you have just asked me directly?"

"Hmph, lying about working overtime, and what really?" Gu Lili scoffed, "Going to see your mistress and your illegitimate daughter, why didn’t you tell me sooner that you have an illegitimate daughter? I wouldn’t have married you if you had!"

Long Yubei’s sparkling dark eyes lit up with amusement, "Who told you that child is my illegitimate daughter? Isn’t your imagination a bit too rich?"

"I did my inquiries; someone heard the child calling you ’daddy’!" Gu Lili sat back down on the bed, "Still pretending?"

"I can explain this properly. I didn’t think it was a big deal, to avoid your wild guesses about why I’m in a high-end district at night, I didn’t tell you. That child is not my illegitimate daughter; she calls me ’daddy’ because I’m her godfather."

Gu Lili didn’t believe a word of it, Godfather?

She unknowingly became a godmother? This was no small matter, she knew nothing about it, and he hadn’t mentioned it ever.

"I can’t live like this."

"I’ve explained it to you."

"Long Yubei, what kind of explanation is this?" Gu Lili grabbed a pillow and threw it at him. "Godfather? Nice story, who would believe that?!"

"That woman’s name is Nan Yuesheng, the child’s father is Mo Lingqi, he’s my sworn brother, we were roommates in college, very close friends. He disappeared overseas, and his whereabouts are unknown till now, I truly am the child’s godfather. Yunanyuan is the apartment I rented for them. They originally lived in Qin Garden, but after marrying you, Yuesheng thought it inconvenient and worried it might cause misunderstandings, so she moved out voluntarily."

Gu Lili finally softened after hearing this explanation, "Then why didn’t you tell me?"

"I didn’t think it was anything serious, and I assumed if you knew, for sure you’d go and check if what I’m saying was true, so I chose not to tell."

Gu Lili lay down, "When did your friend Mo have his incident?"

"Yuesheng was heavily pregnant at that time, now he’s missing, neither alive nor dead, and we’ve been searching with no news. Yuesheng grew up in a difficult family, her father a gambler, and her mother remarried, she had nowhere else to go, so I looked after her, thoughts of my illegitimate daughter, your imagination really goes wild, it would be quite a joke if outsiders knew."

"What’s the child’s name?"

"Mo Ningyi, she’s now two years old and not yet registered in the household, the Mo Family never accepted Yuesheng since they weren’t married, and with Ling Qi missing, dead or alive, and the child being a girl, they didn’t acknowledge her identity."

Understanding the whole story, Gu Lili said, "That’s so pitiful, let’s bring them back here to live with us."
