Chapter 519: Chapter 519: The Person who Disappeared without a Trace (1)

When Gu Annan returned, Auntie Li had already left, and Lu Wanwan was lying on the couch.

The television was still on, but she was already asleep, curled up into a ball.

He closed the door, walked over, turned off the TV, and sat down beside her.

He guessed that person was Bai Youchen, from Song Ning’s determination and Bai Lingyun’s appearance.

And the past affairs between Mrs. Bai and Ye He, he had also heard a bit about them.

That wasn’t considered an extramarital affair at the time; there were few in the family who didn’t know about it.

Gu Heyi was originally from the Gu family, the father’s biological sister, his little aunt.

He ordinarily didn’t pay much attention to such family scandals, and all he knew was that after Ye He died, his little aunt married Bai Lingyun’s father, rapidly had a son Bai Youchen, and later became pregnant with Bai Lingyun.

Then one year, the couple suddenly separated, and the marriage existed in name only.

Since that time, Bai Lingyun’s father had a never-ending stream of women, one after another, and even the Bai family business began to suffer from his neglect.

After that, Bai Youchen disappeared, vanishing without a trace.

Some said he died, others claimed he wasn’t a true descendant of the Bai family, and that this was the way to conceal a family scandal.

If he wasn’t mistaken in his guess, Bai Youchen should be Ye He’s son, which would make him Lu Wanwan’s cousin.

Following the death of the old Madam Ye, she had few relatives left, and if there were any other members of the Ye family still around, she definitely wouldn’t ignore it.

As for how exactly Bai Youchen found her and what his motives were, he still had no clue.

Lu Wanwan moved slightly and opened her eyes.

She wondered why her face felt a bit itchy, Gu Annan was fiddling with her hair, but she didn’t know why.

"You’re awake," he said with downcast eyes, picking her up against him, "Does it still hurt?"

Lu Wanwan pursed her lips and glared at him before finally saying, "So, you think a slap followed by a piece of candy makes everything okay?"

He looked at her and suddenly kissed her.

"Ouch!" She pushed his face away vigorously, reaching up to protect her mouth with her hand.

"Let’s apply some medicine," Gu Annan said as he peeled her fingers away, "Let me take a look. Forget about the candy."

Who wants your kind of candy anyway!

"Stop joking around, if you’re feeling unwell these next couple of days, just stay at home and rest."

She found herself completely encircled in his embrace, the candy something she couldn’t even refuse if she wanted to.

A moment later, taking advantage of his relaxed grip, she pushed at his arm, preparing to wriggle out.

"Have you still been taking the pills recently?"

Lu Wanwan turned her head around, not quite understanding what he was talking about.

Gu Annan’s dark eyes were inscrutable as his hand gently brushed her hair behind her ear, and he asked flatly, "The birth control pills, don’t play dumb."

Although he had agreed to take precautions with her before, there had been a few times when he hadn’t.

"I haven’t been... haven’t..." Lu Wanwan suddenly felt nervous as the topic was brought up.

She didn’t know why she was nervous; it was a perfectly normal thing, after all.

But a part of her felt the impulse to hide it, only to have it exposed.

"Hmm," he responded with no particular reaction, and let go of her.

Her face still confused, what did his ’hmm’ mean?

To continue taking them? Or that he would be sure to take precautions in the future? Or did it mean... they were unnecessary altogether?

"Why haven’t I seen you wearing that scarf?"

Just as Lu Wanwan stood up, lost in thought, she heard him ask.

Each question he asked was more startling than the last.

"It dropped in the bedroom, I’ll bring it back next time," she replied, turning her head, unable to detect anything unusual from his expression.

Just as she was about to relax, he looked at her and said, "I didn’t say which scarf."
