Assistant to My Contracted Husband

In the amusement park:

Gu Mochen crouched down in front of Tang Bao, carefully observing the expression on the little girl’s face.

Especially seeing the big, watery eyes of the little girl about to burst into tears, he became more flustered inside.

The moment he saw Tang Bao and Jian Ran’s reddened eyes, he nearly lost his composure.

Tang Bao, afraid that Gu Mochen hadn’t heard her, confidently spoke again.

"Daddy, you’re Tang Bao’s good daddy, you’re not that bad daddy. Tang Bao doesn’t like that bad daddy, Tang Bao only likes you."

Gu Mochen: "..."

The little girl was clearly feeling wronged, pouting her small lips, choking up as she reached out her arms to hook around Gu Mochen’s neck, allowing herself to lean in his embrace.

Hearing the little girl’s sobbing, Gu Mochen felt a deep discomfort inside.

"I’m sorry, Daddy didn’t lie to you just now... Tang Bao, Daddy is indeed that bad daddy, but believe me, Daddy had his reasons at the time. If I could have known about Mommy and Tang Bao sooner, Daddy would have stayed by Tang Bao and Mommy’s side. Can Tang Bao forgive Daddy?"

Upon hearing Gu Mochen’s words, Tang Bao almost immediately refused without hesitation.

"No..."

Gu Mochen: "..."

The little girl actually had a personality like Jian Ran’s, stubborn when she needed to be.

Feeling wronged, the little girl didn’t believe the truth before her; Gu Mochen could only hold her in his arms, lifting his hand to gently stroke her back, soothing her emotions.

"Daddy, I don’t like the bad daddy..."

"Mm, Daddy knows."

"When Mommy used to take care of me, often we didn’t have enough to eat... it was all because of the bad daddy."

"Mommy had to work to support me, and people say, Daddy should work, and Mommy should take care of the baby."

"People also said, Mommy and I were abandoned by Daddy because the bad daddy found someone better."

Tang Bao sobbingly shared her grievances intermittently.

All these grievances, Gu Mochen was well aware of...

Gu Mochen felt a deep sense of guilt in his heart, for many years, his life wasn’t easy either.

"Mm."

Tang Bao pouted, speaking softly, "I hope that bad daddy never comes back, I want you and Mommy, and little brother, the four of us and grandpa to be so very happy together."

Pausing, Tang Bao lifted her head from Gu Mochen’s embrace and said hoarsely.

"I forgot to say, I also want a little sister."

Gu Mochen: "..."

With two streams of tears still on her fair cheeks, the little girl earnestly discussed wanting a little sister with him.

Gu Mochen was entirely amused by the little one before him, feeling heartache but also warmth in his heart.

"Okay."

Tang Bao pouted, looking at Gu Mochen, meeting the man’s deep dark eyes, unsure how to speak to the current Gu Mochen.

"Then Daddy, I want to go home to find Mommy."

It seemed the little girl didn’t want to be with him anymore, hearing her words, Gu Mochen pursed his lips, raised his hand to ruffle the little girl’s hair softly.

"Mm, we’ll listen to Tang Bao."

...

On the way back, moved by emotions, Tang Bao sat in the back child seat, pouting, deep in thought as Gu Mochen drove.

Knowing his daughter’s mind was troubled, Gu Mochen squinted his dark eyes.

After leaving the amusement park, Tang Bao instinctively chose not to speak much with him.

He noticed all the little girl’s retaliations.

...

After returning to the Gu Family, the moment Gu Mochen opened the car door, Tang Bao immediately ran out towards the living room.

Jian Ran was taking care of Gu Jinchen in the living room, still worried about the father and daughter.

Seeing Tang Bao running toward her, Jian Ran quickly squatted down and hugged Tang Bao in her arms.

"Mommy’s hug."

"Mm."

Jian Ran noticed the little girl’s red eyes and clearly wronged expression, her heart filled with ache, seeing the little one’s pale face, she directly embraced and comforted her.

"What, didn’t have fun with Daddy?"

"No..."

Hearing the little girl’s muffled reply, Jian Ran’s heart almost shattered.

Seeing the little one’s aggrieved appearance, Jian Ran gently spoke to the nearby Cubao.

"Gu Jinchen, say hi to your sister."

"Sis... Sis..."

Little Cubao, learning to speak, though only a year old, could already say quite a few words; his adorable appearance was extremely cute.
