Chapter 556: Chapter 554: He Comes to the Airport to Stop Her
On the phone, Song Yulan did not clarify what the matter was, only that he needed to quickly return to the Gu Family.
Gu Siting did not know what had happened, but hearing Song Yulan’s anxious tone, he had to pause the meeting and hurriedly drive back to the Gu Residence.
Song Yulan was already waiting at the villa’s main entrance. When she saw Gu Siting return, she hurriedly greeted him.
“Mom, what happened?”
With great emotion, Song Yulan said, “Little Orange followed Yaoyao and left.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Siting’s dark eyes slightly darkened.
She might have come to replace Xia Yiwan to pick up Little Orange!
“Mom, I know you like Little Orange, but after all, she is someone else’s child. It’s normal for her to leave.”
No sooner had these words fallen, than Song Yulan smacked his arm hard.
“What if Little Orange were a child of our family?”
Gu Siting was stunned.
His brows furrowed tightly, “Mom, what nonsense are you talking about?”
Song Yulan mentioned the incident from that morning when Little Orange had an allergic reaction after drinking black soy milk.
“It can’t be such a coincidence. Little Orange only took a sip, and she had an allergic reaction. This is clearly related to our family’s genetics.”
The more Song Yulan thought, the more agitated she became.
“Look, it’s always Yaoyao who comes to pick up Little Orange. The moment Little Orange saw her, she was extremely fond of her. What if Yaoyao is Little Orange’s mommy?”
The lines of Gu Siting’s face tightened, and his hands, hanging by his sides, suddenly clenched into fists.
He suddenly remembered the first time he saw Little Orange at the Presidential Residence; she said she was looking for Trashy Dad.
Yanxi is not her daddy, and Gu Yanyu is not either. Why would she go to the Presidential Residence to find her daddy?
And there was also a time when she said her Trashy Dad had no taste because the wife he chose was not as pretty as her mommy!
Seeing that Gu Siting was stunned, Song Yulan promptly pushed him, “I have a feeling that if Little Orange is Yaoyao’s daughter, she might be taking her away. Hurry and go find them!”
Gu Siting took out his cell phone and immediately made a call.
…
Ming Yao, upon seeing the rash on Little Orange’s face, fed her a pill.
Not daring to delay, she took her straight to the airport.
Deep down, she had a vague bad feeling.
She had already purchased the tickets and changed the boarding pass, taking Little Orange to the VIP lounge.
Watching her mommy in such a rush, confusion flashed through Little Orange’s large, grape-like eyes, “Mommy, don’t we need to say goodbye to Auntie Wanwan?”
“No need. Your Auntie Wanwan has gone back to Li City. Next time, mommy will bring you back to see her.”
Little Orange nodded.
Ming Yao glanced at her wristwatch several times.
Finally, the time to board was approaching, and the sweet voice of the airport staff could be heard over the loudspeaker.
Ming Yao carried Little Orange in one arm and pulled along a small suitcase with the other, heading toward the boarding gate.
Just when it was almost their turn to enter, several airport staff approached.
“Excuse me, are you Miss Ming?”
Ming Yao’s heart skipped a beat, and the vague bad feeling grew stronger.
Swallowing hard, Ming Yao nodded, “I am.”
“Miss Ming, we have found a dangerous item in your checked luggage. Please come with us.”
Ming Yao had a sinking feeling about what was happening.
What dangerous item could there be in her luggage? Clearly, someone wanted to detain her and Little Orange!
“Mommy, what are they doing?”
Ming Yao gently patted Little Orange’s back, “Baby, don’t be scared.”
Ming Yao made a phone call to Jing Hang, and soon, Jing Hang arrived.
Ming Yao handed Little Orange to Jing Hang, “You take her to the waiting room and wait for me first.”
“Sister, is everything okay?”
Ming Yao pursed her red lips, “I’ll go and see first.”
Ming Yao had been standing in the lounge for less than five minutes when the door suddenly opened.
An imposing and distant figure strode in.
Gu Siting had arrived.
He seemed to have just come from the Office Hall, dressed in a pristine, sharply pressed white shirt with a business vest over it. The vest bore a glittering badge on the chest. Tall and long-legged, his handsome features were cool and forbidding, carrying a sense of decisiveness that came with holding a high position for a long time.
Looking into his unfathomable, dark eyes, Ming Yao felt her unease grow.
He had hurried over as if he knew something?
“In such a hurry to leave, what are you afraid of?”
Ming Yao’s heart tightened.
But on her cold and charming face, there was not the slightest sign of panic.
Her red lips slightly upturned, “I don’t know what Mr. President is talking about?”
The man took a few strides and reached her.
His tall frame cast a shadow over her.
Under the short black hair of the man, his facial contours appeared sharp and profound amidst the interplay of light and shadow.
Just a step away, their gazes intertwined.
Dark and deep, they were like two swirling vortices, poised to draw her in completely.
Ming Yao needed a great deal of courage to meet his gaze.
“Little Orange is Xia Yiwan’s daughter, isn’t she? What are you doing, taking her away?”
The man’s dark eyes were tightly fixed on her, like a beast of the forest, with an aggressive and imposing aura.
The room was so quiet that she could clearly hear both her and his breathing, both of which were somewhat heavy.
Truth be told, Ming Yao’s heart was a bit flustered and at a loss at this moment.
If he could find this place, it meant he was prepared to press her for answers!
After much turmoil, Ming Yao had adjusted her disordered emotions, her red lips curving up slightly, “Wanwan wants to take Little Orange on a holiday abroad. She will go back to make arrangements for Father Xia and Mother Xia, and she will join us soon.”
“I am Little Orange’s godmother, taking her there first, is there a problem?” Her voice turned seductive, and a captivating smile appeared on her radiant face. The tear mole at the corner of her eye made her seem alluring, “Mr. President, you’ve gone to great lengths to detain me here, don’t tell me you think Little Orange is my daughter with you?”
Seeing her seductive yet somewhat mocking smile, Gu Siting’s thin lips tightened into a straight line.
“So, is Little Orange my daughter or not?”
The mocking look in Ming Yao’s beautiful eyes intensified, “Crazy.”
No longer wanting to talk to him, Ming Yao intended to leave.
But the next second, her delicate wrist was forcefully grasped by the man’s large hand.
Before Ming Yao could say anything, the man flung her toward the floor-to-ceiling window.
Ming Yao’s slender back hit the glass, cold and hard, with a slight sting and numbness.
She forcefully shook off the man’s hand, her radiant face cooling down, “Are you sick or what!”
Gu Siting, however, had no intention of letting her go, his tall figure stepping in front of her. One hand was propped against her waist, and the other was placed above her head.
Taking advantage of his height, he looked down at her from above.
His presence was already formidable, and being enveloped by him at such close range was even more suffocating.
Ming Yao frowned subtly without a word, “Mr. President, we no longer have any relationship. Don’t you think this is quite ungentlemanly?”
Gu Siting tugged at his thin lips, pulling a faint curve, “Ming Yao, do you think I won’t verify it just because you don’t say it?”
