I Regained My Memories and Became Rich After Getting Divorced Chapter 282: Uncle

Chapter 282: Uncle

Translator: _Min_ |

Gu Dai quickly noticed a young girl, around five or six years old, running around the restaurant. In the diagonal direction, a waitress was carrying a tray with several dishes, unable to see the child due to a blind spot.

The two were getting dangerously close to colliding.

Gu Dai instantly dropped her bag back onto the chair and rushed out, pulling the little girl into her arms just in time to avoid an accident.

After the waiter moved past the girl’s location, his mind raced as he realized what had just happened. His face turned ashen, and he turned to Gu Dai, repeatedly thanking her.

Gu Dai waved her hand dismissively, “It’s alright, you can go back to work.”

She then gently seated the girl and asked softly, “Sweetheart, what’s your name?”

Jiang Sui replied, “My name is Jiang Sui, you can call me Suisui.”

Gu Dai nodded gently in acknowledgment, then spoke softly, “Suisui, you shouldn’t run around in the restaurant, okay? You’re still small, and the big brothers and big sisters are too tall; they might not see you. You could easily b.u.mp into someone, and both of you might get hurt.”

Jiang Sui, slightly stunned, obediently nodded her head.

Song Ling, observing Gu Dai’s smiling face as she comforted Jiang Sui, recalled the tender way she looked at Gu Yin in the hospital and couldn’t help but be captivated.

He asked somewhat subconsciously, “Do you really like children?”

Gu Dai glanced at Song Ling, then looked away and responded indifferently, “I do.”

Song Ling felt a tremor in his heart, unable to resist fantasizing about what it would be like if he and Gu Dai had a child.

Surely, the child would be as strong as him and as beautiful as Gu Dai.

Without looking at Song Ling, Gu Dai knew what he was thinking and interrupted his thoughts with a cold voice, “There will be no children between us.”

“Why?” Song Ling asked.

Gu Dai increasingly found Song Ling foolish and forgetful.

Impatiently, she explained, “Because we’re already divorced. And even when we were married, it was you who didn’t want children.”

Gu Dai remembered how, during her amnesia, w.a.n.g Lan had ridiculed her many times for not having children and would take away the gifts her grandfather had given her.

The frightening part was that, at that time, not only did she not know how to resist, but she even felt that w.a.n.g Lan was right. She harbored guilt for not having borne a child.

Now, Gu Dai could only find it laughable. After all, having a child requires two people; without Song Ling’s cooperation, how could she possibly conceive? Through parthenogenesis?

Song Ling’s expression froze as he also recalled the past.

Gu Dai had once expressed a desire to have a child with him, but he thought she was trying to tie him down with a child, fueling his disdain for her and even causing him to stay away from home.

Watching Song Ling’s changing expressions, Gu Dai couldn’t help but scoff.

Lowering his gaze, Song Ling softly said, “Daidai, I’ve changed my mind now.” Hearing Song Ling’s use of her nickname, Gu Dai felt a chill in her heart. Frowning, Gu Dai spoke earnestly, “President Song, please address me by my full name. We are not that familiar. You should maintain a sense of distance.” Pausing for a few seconds, she added softly, “President Song, you should know, just because you’ve changed your mind doesn’t mean I will agree.” Song Ling remained silent, eventually responding with a faint acknowledgment.

He extended his hand towards Jiang Sui, asking softly, “Suisui, may Big Brother hold you for a while?”

Jiang Sui glanced at Song Ling, then turned to Gu Dai, firmly wrapping her arms around Gu Dai and shaking her head while refusing, “No, I don’t want uncle to hold me, I only want sister to hold me!”

Uncle? Song Ling’s smile froze.

Gu Dai almost laughed out loud, a smile curling at the corners of her mouth. Taking a deep breath to suppress his irritation, Song Ling reminded himself that Jiang Sui was just a child, without any malice, merely expressing her thoughts, and that he, as an adult, should not take it to heart.

Burying her face in Gu Dai’s embrace, Jiang Sui cried out, “Big Sister, I can’t find my mom and dad.”

Gu Dai softly asked, “Did you get separated from your mom and dad here in the restaurant, Suisui?”

Jiang Sui nodded, speaking in a small voice, “My cup was empty, and mom and dad were busy working. I tried to find the drink myself, but I couldn’t find it, and now I can’t find my mom and dad either.”

Gu Dai gently patted Jiang Sui’s back, comforting her, “Don’t cry, we’ll tell the waitress, and she’ll help you find your mom and dad soon..”
