Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Staying

Gu Zi leisurely sipped her tea while playing with the child in her arms.

After about an hour, footsteps approached the door, and Gu Zi caught a faint whiff of blood. She held the child and looked towards the door.

A man in his thirties entered. He was a pig farmer. With Lin Miao's eagerness to escape, Gu Zi expected to see a beer belly and a simple demeanor.

But what she didn't expect was that a cold and slender man entered. He was dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, exuding an air of coldness.

As the man approached, Gu Zi stood up, still holding the child.

The man was quite handsome, with well-defined features. In her era, he could have become a celebrity solely based on his looks.

Su Shen sized Gu Zi up. When he saw her carrying the child, the coldness in his eyes dissipated a little. "What's your name?"

"Gu Zi," Gu Zi replied, focusing her gaze on the man's face, her voice gentle. "I'm eighteen years old. Lin Miao, who was engaged to you before, is the biological daughter of the Gu family. I'm the daughter of the Lin family, so I'm here to fulfill the marriage agreement between our two families."

Su Shen's eyes shifted to the sofa, his expression indifferent. "Please, have a seat."

Gu Zi sat down on the sofa while holding the child. She didn't know what to say as Su Shen sat nearby, scrutinizing her.

Su Shen had heard about Lin Miao finding her biological parents and the rumor that Gu Zi refused to return to the Lin family because of her dislike for poverty. However, he couldn't understand why she had come to him of her own accord now.

"You might not be aware of my situation," Su Shen said succinctly. "I'm thirty years old now. Have you really thought this through?"

He was twelve years older than her.

Gu Zi smiled faintly and nodded. "I'm aware of your age. I've thought it through."

Su Shen was slightly stunned. His sharp eyes were locked onto Gu Zi. "I have three children, all of whom were adopted from my sister. Even if I remarry, I don't intend to have any more children."

Gu Zi smiled and shifted the child in her arms slightly towards Su Shen. With one hand holding the child, she extended the other towards him. "I will do my best to be a good stepmother and take care of these three."
