Gu Jia stood up and covered Han Tao's mouth with her hand, and said with relief:
"You don't have to feel guilty. I've known who you are from the beginning to the end. Since I chose to be with you, it means I've thought it through. I believe Xiaoqin and Manni have thought the same way."
After saying that, Gu Jia looked at Zhong Xiaoqin, who also nodded without any hesitation and expressed her true feelings and thoughts.
"Okay, as long as you don't regret it, don't feel wronged, and are willing to stay with me forever, I, Han Tao, will never let you down, and will never leave you."
"Of course we want to be with you forever!" Zhong Xiaoqin and Gu Jiahao said in unison as if they had made an appointment.
………………
Just as the atmosphere was becoming more and more heated, and several people couldn't help but feel endless tenderness and affection in their hearts, as if they were going to perform the most moving music in life together, a little head came over.
Xu Ziyan asked in a crisp voice: "Godfather, are you going to be Ziyan's new father?"
Gu Jia was caught off guard when she heard Xu Ziyan's words. Although her relationship with Han Tao had reached this point, she still felt a little embarrassed to have it exposed by a child.
She was also a little worried. After all, she had lived with Xu Huanshan in Grand Hyatt Mansion before, and the property management was very aware of the situation. She was worried that gossip would leak out.
Although I later sold the house and moved here, and I am single now, I don't have to care about what others say, but it is inevitable that my children will care.
Even if he is very young now and does not understand the truth, what should he do when he grows up and is misled by some distorted words that have been spread?
Thinking of this, Gu Jia adjusted her mentality, squatted down and asked:
"Zi Yan, tell mom, why did you say that? Who told you anything?"
Xu Ziyan looked at Gu Jia and said like a little adult, "What's so difficult about this? The mother of a kid in the class found a new father for him, and then he lived with the new father.
Now we live together, and not at Manni's godmother's house. Just now my mother said that we will be together forever, so isn't the godfather my new father?"
Children of this generation are exposed to more information and have different experiences. Divorce is very common for their parents and there are classmates in the class with this situation too, so he didn’t think much of it.
“Zi Yan…”
When Gu Jia heard Xu Ziyan say this, she felt relieved, but she didn't know how to explain her relationship with Han Tao to her son.
If I say they are not together, not only will Xu Ziyan not believe it, I can't say it myself.
But if they were together, they had no plans to get married, because Xu Ziyan was still young, and this idea had never occurred to Gu Jia.
The one who feels the most sorry about the divorce is the child. Han Tao saw that Gu Jia was silent and knew that it was not easy for her to talk to Xu Ziyan about this matter, so he stepped forward and hugged Xu Ziyan and said:
"Zi Yan, then tell your godfather if you are willing to let him be your father?"
Xu Ziyan nodded: "Yes, my godfather and godmother both love me. They buy me toys and take me to the playground. I like my godfather."
Han Tao pinched his little face and said with a smile: "Okay, then we will live together as a family from now on, but Zi Yan doesn't need to call me dad, just godfather.
And if Ziyan misses his father in the future, he can always tell mom or godfather, and then mom will take you to see him."
"Okay, I understand, godfather. Can we eat now? Ziyan is starving!"
Xu Ziyan didn't have any deep feelings about his parents' divorce, and his godfather had said that he could visit his father anytime, so he didn't care much.
Besides, my father is often on business trips, and my mother and the aunt at home are always with him. The current situation is almost the same as when he was on business trips before.
The most important thing is that compared to Xu Huanshan, he likes Han Tao more. At least Han Tao will play with him whenever he comes back, take him to the playground, buy him a lot of toys, and eat a lot of delicious food.
Even if his mother was not at home, his godfather and godmother would take him out with them. And ever since his father had a beautiful aunt, he was less likely to be accompanied by himself.
In fact, the world of children is so simple. They will only use the love they can feel as the standard of good and bad.

Chapter 823 A Warm Dinner
Looking at the cute Xu Ziyan, Han Tao smiled and scratched his little nose and said:
"Zi Yan is hungry, so Godfather and Mommy should stop chatting and let Mommy go make something delicious for Zi Yan."
Xu Ziyan nodded and responded in a baby voice: "Godfather, I want to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes and braised pork. The braised pork ribs made by mom are better than those made by Sister Chen."
"Okay, Mom will make Zi Yan's favorite braised pork ribs."
Gu Jia nodded, then looked at Han Tao and said, "It just so happens that I gave Sister Chen a day off today, so let everyone have a taste of my cooking!"
"Okay, come to think of it, I haven't tasted Gu Jia's cooking skills other than cakes."
Han Tao couldn't help but look forward to it. Although they had been together for quite some time, he had never eaten any dish cooked by Gu Jia except desserts, because she and the nanny always cooked together.
It just so happens that our nanny, Sister Chen, is not at home today, so I can see for myself what a perfect life is and what a good wife and mother is.
"Our Gu Gu is a perfect woman who can both be a lady in the living room and a cook in the kitchen. She cooks delicious food. You are in for a treat today!"
Zhong Xiaoqin must be supporting her best friend. She had always envied Gu Jia, who had really managed both family and career, and managed everything in order.
"Okay, then I'm going to have a good taste today."
Han Tao smiled and looked at Gu Jia. "The babysitter is not here. Can you handle it by yourself? Do you need me to help you?"
"No, just a few home-cooked dishes. You play with Zi Yan for a while, I can handle it myself!"
"That's right, the kitchen is a woman's world. You play with Zi Yan, and I'll help Gu Gu. It will be done soon."
Zhong Xiaoqin also nodded, and then pushed Han Tao and Xu Ziyan towards the toy room.
Originally Han Tao was worried that she would get bumped into something, so he insisted on helping, and Xu Ziyan also wanted to join in the trouble.
But both of them were kicked out, and Han Tao was looked down upon by Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin. After some scientific knowledge, they learned that except for strenuous exercise and high-risk sports, during the early stages of pregnancy, you can do housework.
Moreover, Zhong Xiaoqin repeatedly emphasized that she is not that squeamish and that she has no problem with routine work or daily life. She just needs to be careful not to get too tired.
"Well, be careful not to hurt yourself. Call me if you need help, Liu!"
Han Tao didn't want to make trouble. After telling her to be careful, he took Xu Ziyan away.
Gu Jia was left watching the two men, one big and one small, talking and laughing. She breathed a sigh of relief and went into the kitchen with Zhong Xiaoqin.
However, out of concern and love, Zhong Xiaoqin only picked and washed vegetables, while Gu Jia did all the work such as cutting and cooking by herself.
As for Xu Ziyan, with Han Tao playing with him, he was not limited to the toy room. He ran back and forth between several rooms and became exhausted after a while.
Han Tao looked at this innocent child and felt a lot of emotion in his heart when he thought of the pregnant women.
Before I knew it, there were already four pregnant women, and after the New Year I would be the father of several children.
After a long while, the Gu family finally finished cooking. They served the dishes outside and called them to eat.
"Zi Yan, stop pestering your godfather. The meal is ready. You two can come out and wash your hands and eat!"
"Okay, let's go eat!"
Hearing the shout, Han Tao took Xu Ziyan to wash his hands, and then they sat down at the dining table together.
Gu Jia first picked up a dish for Han Tao, then picked up dishes for Zhong Xiaoqin and Xu Ziyan, and said expectantly: "Try it and see how my dishes are today."
Han Tao picked up the chopsticks, picked up some and took a bite. These dishes were indeed delicious, and the amount of ingredients was just right, so he praised:
"Well, it tastes really good, with good color, aroma and flavor. The cooking time is also very good, comparable to the chef in the restaurant."
Anyone would be happy to hear that their cooking skills were recognized, and Gu Jia was even happier since the person who was praising them was Han Tao.
"That's good. I was worried that the food I cooked wouldn't suit your taste. If you like it, eat more. Come, try this!"
After saying that, Gu Jia gently picked up a piece of braised pork ribs for Han Tao with her chopsticks, her eyes full of tenderness.
Of course, she did not forget her son and her best friend Zhong Xiaoqin. After picking up food for Han Tao, she also picked up food and served soup for them.
The atmosphere was harmonious and the family enjoyed the meal together. After the meal, Zhong Xiaoqin strolled in the living room to digest the food, while Han Tao and Gu Jia played with Xu Ziyan for a while.
When the time was almost up and the adults and children were tired, Gu Jia went to give Xu Ziyan a bath, and then the mother and son went to the bedroom to read a storybook to put him to sleep.
After they closed the door, Han Tao took Zhong Xiaoqin and slowly walked to the terrace garden. They looked at the scenery and neon lights in the distance, and gently hugged her from behind and whispered to her.
After some sweet talk, Zhong Xiaoqin finally let go of the burden in her heart and started to imagine her future life of raising children with Han Tao.
Han Tao looked at Zhong Xiaoqin's cute appearance, smiled and teased in her ear: "Then you have to work hard, don't be so hesitant, try to have more children!"
Hearing this, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't help but turn her head and glared at Han Tao, saying coquettishly: "Do you think I'm a pig? Why give birth to more children? I'm already satisfied with this one.
It would be best if it was a daughter. I really want a soft and cuddly little girl. Every time I think of this, I can’t help but feel happy.
You don’t know, the clothes worn by little girls in the mall are so beautiful, so nice-looking, I didn’t notice it before, but now every time I visit the mall I can’t help but take a few glances.”
"Okay, then we'll have a girl. They say a daughter is a little cotton-padded jacket, while a son is a debtor. I want a daughter too!"
Looking at Zhong Xiaoqin who was radiating maternal love, Han Tao couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that she had really thought it through, otherwise she wouldn't have spoken in that tone.
"You're dreaming. It's not up to us to decide whether it's a boy or a girl!"
"So I said we should try to have more children. Since we both like girls, we should keep having them until we have daughters.
It's not like I can't afford to support you and the baby, so I'm not afraid of having more children, and having more children will make the house more lively!"
"Bah, you still treat me like a pig, that's why I don't give birth to so many children for you. Besides, other rich families or big families all like sons, why do you think differently?"
"What's so good about having a son? There's no throne waiting for him to inherit. Daughters know how to love others, but sons are no longer yours once they get married.
So if it's a son, let them be self-reliant when they grow up, and if it's a daughter, you must train her well, raise a son poorly and a daughter well!"
"Ah, how can that be possible..."
Seeing Han Tao's serious look, Zhong Xiaoqin was really worried. She was afraid that if she gave birth to a son, Han Tao would really dislike him!
"Hahaha, I'm just kidding. I'd like any child to be born. As long as it's ours, I'll treat them the same regardless of gender!"
"Phew, you scared me to death, I thought you really didn't like your son!"
Zhong Xiaoqin patted her chest, turned around to look at Han Tao, and happily kissed him on the lips.
Feeling the softness on his lips and seeing her happy look, Han Tao felt that it was good for Zhong Xiaoqin to be simple and happy like this.
She was originally an ordinary, naive girl with a naive and lovely personality, and was very well taken care of by her parents.
She has no big ambitions at work, is sentimental and cries easily, loves watching Korean dramas, and lives a romantic life. She has neither the courage of Gu Jia nor the fighting spirit of Wang Manni.
If it weren't for the miscarriage during her last pregnancy, she might never have grown up. She probably wouldn't have had the melancholy she had before and would still be living in a daze.
Therefore, Han Tao felt that there was no need to make her become like Gu Jia and Wang Manni. A big family needs people like Zhong Xiaoqin.
...........................
Chapter 824 Morning Exercise
After Gu Jia coaxed her son Xu Ziyan to sleep, she did not go to the terrace to chat with Han Tao and Zhong Xiaoqin. Instead, she said hello and went back to her room.
Zhong Xiaoqin has been struggling and hesitant for some time recently. Gu Jia knows that she has finally relaxed now, and she is pregnant, so she needs Han Tao's company and comfort.
At the same time, she also wanted to be alone for a while, because after what happened in the evening, her heart was a little confused, or she finally untied a hidden knot in her heart.
Recalling the path she had taken over the years and her experiences after meeting Han Tao, Gu Jia closed the door, then squatted down and cried silently.
When she was 15 years old, her mother died of illness, leaving her and her father alone. However, the young Gu Jia didn’t know how to communicate with her father, so she could only learn to grow up on her own.
Even when I had my first period, I didn't know how to tell my father, so I had to bear it myself.
In order to avoid these embarrassing moments, she chose to attend boarding school in high school. When she went to college, she stayed in the dormitory and did not go home. Gradually, the father and daughter became estranged.
There is no way out. The adolescent girl faces her middle-aged and taciturn father. She cannot tell her father all her thoughts. Both of them want to communicate but don’t know how to start.
It is also because of this background that Gu Jia has to make many decisions on her own when growing up, whether it is studying or working.
Including everything we have today, most of it was created by myself.
Even after having a child, Gu Jia still insisted on exercising. She didn't dare to get sick or have any accidents, for fear that her child would experience the same thing as she did.
It can be said that since her mother passed away, Gu Jia has become very independent, but behind her independence are her high demands on life and the exploitation of herself.
Therefore, Gu Jia doesn’t want her son to be like her, with no one to help pave the way for him, and no one to plan his life in advance, and every step he takes when he becomes an adult will be very difficult.
However, Gu Jia did not blame her parents, because her parents did not have the conditions to give her a better life at that time.
Especially when the mother is sick, the father has to support the family and pay for the mother's medical treatment with one salary. It is not easy to be debt-free, so how can he create a future for his daughter?
So, behind Gu Jia's strength is a lack of love, and the sense of security and happiness she longed for was not given by Xu Huanshan, but by Han Tao.
It was also Han Tao who made her feel protected, loved and cared for. Only when she was with Han Tao, she was no longer someone else's daughter or someone else's mother, but herself.
It is for this reason that she cherishes this hard-earned relationship more than anyone else, and her inner bottom line has also taken a big step back.
In front of everyone and her bestie, Gu Jia has always maintained her pride and tenacity, and has performed outstandingly in terms of her outward temperament, inner cultivation, and personal abilities.
But only in front of Han Tao, she did not hide her inner weakness, because Gu Jia knew what she wanted and knew how to grasp this hard-earned emotion.
