Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband
Chapter 377: Is There Anything Abnormal About Her?"You found her?"
Gu Hengzhi was stunned. ’This is impossible. If the Gu family’s daughter who disappeared all those years ago was really found, how could I not know about it!’
"Mhm, it’s that nice lady from today. Brother, I like her. I want her to be my sister!"
As Gu Zifan spoke, a light blush crept onto his little face, as if he were a bit bashful.
Gu Hengzhi’s expression cleared. ’So that’s what he meant.’ He’d actually thought his missing sister had truly been found.
But a new feeling quickly followed: worry. He was worried for Gu Zifan, worried about this "nice lady" he mentioned—Shen Nian.
Gu Hengzhi valued family deeply, and Gu Zifan was much the same. In fact, the boy’s craving for familial affection was even stronger than his own.
But in front of strangers, young Gu Zifan was even colder and more aloof than Gu Hengzhi.
That was why the Gu family’s servants found their little young master to be a boy of few words, with a difficult personality that made him hard to approach.
Yet this same boy, so unapproachable to outsiders, had suddenly taken an interest in a woman who had appeared out of nowhere. Moreover, he’d so directly expressed his fondness for her. Gu Hengzhi couldn’t help but worry.
He worried that the woman might be deliberately getting close to Gu Zifan with ulterior motives.
Of course, Gu Hengzhi wouldn’t voice such thoughts in front of Gu Zifan. Seeing the rare look of joy on his brother’s face, he couldn’t bear to ruin the moment. Besides, he didn’t want to expose the young boy to such dark matters.
’As for whether that woman has ulterior motives, I’ll find out myself.’
"Fanfan, had you met her before today?"
"Mhm, I met her at the supermarket last time. The lady is really nice! Brother, you have to like the lady I like!"
"Alright."
Gu Hengzhi smiled at Gu Zifan. His answer made the boy grin in relief.
That evening, after putting Gu Zifan to bed, Gu Hengzhi went downstairs and summoned the servant who had taken the boy to the supermarket.
"Young Master, did you need me for something?"
Although Gu Hengzhi was not the Gu family’s biological son, he held a great deal of authority in the household. Hearing that the Young Master had summoned her, the servant’s heart pounded with apprehension, worried she had done something wrong.
"The last time you took the Little Young Master to the supermarket, what happened?"
At Gu Hengzhi’s words, the servant’s heart began to pound. ’This is bad. Is the Young Master blaming me for not watching the Little Young Master properly? What do I do, what do I do? I don’t want to lose this job!’
"Young Master, I... It wasn’t on purpose! I don’t know how—I just turned my back for a moment, and the Little Young Master was gone. Thankfully, a kind person found him and took him to the customer service desk, and that’s how I found him so quickly."
The servant looked at Gu Hengzhi, terrified, but she didn’t dare hide anything and obediently admitted her mistake.
"And that person... what were they like?"
The servant gave Gu Hengzhi a confused look. It took her a moment to realize he was asking about the kind person from that day.
"She was a very young, pretty woman. The Little Young Master seemed to like her a lot. He started calling her ’sister’ right away and talked to her quite a bit."
This was particularly noteworthy, as the Little Young Master hardly ever spoke to the staff.
"Did you notice anything unusual about her?"
"I don’t think so. She was buying a lot of daily necessities at the supermarket. When she took the Little Young Master to the service desk, her own items were still being held in storage. The way she spoke to him was perfectly normal, nothing seemed out of place."
The servant was confused but didn’t dare ask any questions. She simply recounted everything she had seen that day to Gu Hengzhi in full detail.
"I understand. You’re dismissed."
"Yes."
The servant let out a sigh of relief, gave Gu Hengzhi a nod, and turned to leave.
Gu Hengzhi remained seated, unmoving. Inwardly, however, he had already made a decision.
