Chapter 557: Chapter 555: She Admits Little Orange is His Daughter
“The cup she used for drinking milk this morning hasn’t been washed yet, or maybe there are strands of her hair left in the bedroom where she slept. If I go and have a DNA comparison done, wouldn’t I be able to find out everything?”
Ming Yao knew that when Little Orange first arrived at the Gu Residence, Gu Siting had a DNA test done.
Little Orange had tampered with it, and he didn’t discover anything.
Now, just based on the allergy to black soy milk, it can’t prove anything.
He is trying to trick her into revealing something right now.
She must not lose her composure.
“Go ahead and do it, why come and tell me?”
Seeing Ming Yao still stubborn at this point, Gu Siting’s handsome face turned ashen. He clenched his teeth, his voice low and cold, “Ming Yao, no need to be obstinate with me. Until the results come out, you and Little Orange are not allowed to leave the capital for even half a step!”
Ming Yao’s face, which she struggled to keep calm and composed, finally showed a crack.
She placed her hands against the man’s chest and pushed him away with force.
“Gu Siting, on what grounds?”
Gu Siting’s deep black eyes narrowed, emitting a chilling glint, “If the result shows she’s not mine, I will personally apologize to Xia Yiwan.”
“If she is, I will absolutely not allow her to call another man Daddy, nor will I let you take her away again!”
Hearing his last words, Ming Yao’s complexion instantly turned pallid.
The reason she was anxious to leave with Little Orange was that she feared he would fight her for custody.
He is the all-powerful Mr. President, and she is just a commoner. How could she possibly win a lawsuit against him?
When she was pregnant with the twins, during the late stages, she had a low-lying placenta, risking premature birth at any time. Fearing for the babies’ safety, she stayed in bed constantly.
Those were the most difficult months for her, fraught with anxiety every single day!
Giving birth to children is never an easy process.
The twins are her lifeline; she couldn’t possibly let Gu Siting take them away.
Gu Siting, an extremely astute man, noticed the subtle changes in Ming Yao’s eyes, which immediately confirmed his suspicions.
Little Orange is his and her daughter!
Realizing this, Gu Siting’s hand, hanging by his side, couldn’t help but clench into a fist.
An indescribable joy surged in his heart like a tide.
He forcefully restrained his emotions, not showing them on his face.
“I’m going to have the DNA test done right now! Ming Yao, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. You probably know full well that you have no chance of winning a lawsuit against me!”
Gu Siting turned to leave.
Ming Yao could no longer stay calm.
She knew that she could no longer hide Little Orange’s identity!
As the man’s tall figure was about to reach the door, her voice trembling, she said, “Gu Siting, what right do you have to fight me for our daughter?”
Gu Siting turned back to look at her.
Her body stiffened, her beautiful eyes reddening, like a provoked little beast.
Gu Siting pursed his lips tightly, his voice hoarse, “So, you admit it?”
Ming Yao’s fingertips dug tightly into her palm, “Yes, Little Orange is your daughter.”
Though he had already guessed, hearing her admit it personally had a different impact.
His chest felt like it had been struck by something, both exhilarating and somewhat unbelievable.
It turns out, the Trashy Dad the little girl talked about was truly him!
It turns out, after she left that year, she gave birth to a daughter!
A smile broke through Gu Siting’s usually stern and severe face.
In a few quick strides, he reached Ming Yao, pinning her against the floor-to-ceiling window.
Once again he drew near, Ming Yao instinctively put her hands against his chest, not wanting him to get too close.
But in the next second, the man grasped her chin and kissed her fiercely.
“Mmph!”
The kiss was like a tempest, overwhelming and inescapable.
Her lips were sealed tightly, her waist gripped firmly, rendering her unable to move.
It happened so suddenly that Ming Yao had no chance to react.
Between breaths and taste buds, all she could sense was his presence.
He was domineering and wild, not allowing her any retreat.
Ming Yao felt both ashamed and annoyed.
How could he do this?
It took nearly all her strength to push him away; she wasn’t someone to be trifled with, like a little wildcat, she raised her knee intending to hit him where he was most vulnerable.
Gu Siting quickly caught Ming Yao’s knee.
His large hand lifted, pulling her forcefully into his embrace.
In the silence of the air, it seemed they could only hear each other’s uneven, shallow breathing.
Ming Yao’s fair ears uncontrollably flushed with red.
She angrily pushed the man away, “Gu Siting, I won’t hand over Little Orange’s custody to you!”
Gu Siting’s chiseled features tensed, his dark eyes glaring sharply at Ming Yao, “I will never allow my daughter to recognize another man as daddy.”
Seeing the man’s murderous gaze, Ming Yao’s long eyelashes trembled.
“Don’t worry, I haven’t let her recognize another man as daddy.”
Now that he knew, she couldn’t be heartless enough to prevent father and daughter from knowing each other.
As long as he didn’t vie with her for custody, she would even allow Little Orange to stay at the Presidential Residence for a month or two each year.
This was her biggest compromise.
Thinking this way, Ming Yao also voiced her thoughts.
She had thought that Gu Siting would be pleased upon hearing this, but his tense visage replied, “She is a precious princess, I could never let her live outside.”
“How could she be living outside? She lives with me on Tang Sect Island, leading a privileged life.”
“Is Tang Sect secure enough?” Gu Siting’s deep-set eyes narrowed slightly, “If enemies seeking vengeance find Tang Sect one day, can you ensure my daughter’s absolute safety?”
Ming Yao, “…”
“Let her live in the Presidential Residence. If you want to see her, you can come over, or you can take her to stay with you for a month or two.”
Ming Yao was almost amused by Gu Siting’s words.
“If you like kids so much, why didn’t you let Dai Na have one for you?”
No sooner had she spoken than the temperature in the air noticeably dropped several degrees, becoming stiff and icy.
The man’s face darkened, as if frost could be scraped off it.
It was a long while before Gu Siting spoke up hoarsely, “Ming Yao, believe it or not, aside from you, I have not touched another woman.”
Ming Yao’s beautiful eyes widened abruptly.
What did he say?
He hasn’t touched Dai Na?
How could that be?
They had been married for four years, and additionally, when she had gone to the Presidential Residence to measure him, she had encountered Dai Na and seen ambiguous marks on her neck.
Seeing Ming Yao’s skeptical look, Gu Siting pursed his lips before saying, “When I agreed to the marriage with the princess of Country Y, I was ready for a divorce. Over these years, I have been planning and scheming, wanting to seize power to have enough say and no longer be passive to others’ commands.”
He looked into her eyes, deepening a few shades, his long, strong hand grasping her delicate shoulders, “All so that one day in the future, should we meet again, I would still be worthy to pursue you anew.”
