Chapter 419 Dating
The misunderstanding between Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu had already been revealed. Everyone was happy.
But…
After Gong Tianhao’s deception was exposed, he could no longer step into the Xiao family.
Mother Xiao said, “Young Master Gong, my house is too small for a big character like you!”
Father Xiao said, “Young Master Gong, please leave us in peace for now!”
Gong Tianhao, “…” He knew that something like this might happen.
“Uncle, Auntie, I can explain.” Gong Tianhao said. He and Xiao Lingyu finally had a heart-to-heart. Their true feelings were revealed. The way was paved to marriage. However, his secrets were exposed to the Xiao Family too. And it was when he was faking an illness.
Gong Tianhao’s face was filled with distress.
The Xiao family had refused him to come to their house. They had even sternly barred him from meeting Xiao Lingyu. After being turned away for the umpteenth time, Gong Tianhao paced around the living room in annoyance. He scratched his hair a few times. In the living room, a few other people saw Gong Tianhao’s expression and drank their tea calmly, completely ignoring Gong Tianhao’s annoyance and anxiety. Eventually, Old Master Gong couldn’t stand it anymore. He placed the teacup on the table and said unhappily, “Scratch, scratch. If you continue to scratch your head, you’ll become bald.”
Situ Xing agreed, “Yes, yes. However, for a handsome man like Boss, even if he becomes bald, he’ll still be the most handsome bald man. But I do wonder if sister-in-law will complain about that.”
“…” Gong Tianhao glared at him and said unhappily, “It was your stupid idea. Instead of helping me, you’re here making sarcastic remarks. Do you still want to go to the Xiao family for meals?”
Situ Xing immediately disagreed, “Boss, it was not a bad idea. Look, hasn’t it solved the problem between you and sister-in-law? Now we know she does have feelings for you. Speaking of which, you still have to thank me.” When he came up with this idea, he had expected repercussions, but it was not his fault. “Boss, you only have yourself to blame. You let slip two big secrets, and your acting was exposed.”
Situ Xing defended himself, “Sister-in-law is carrying your child, and you’re the richest man in China are both shocking news for the Xiao Family.
“If I were part of their family, I would break your leg. You’re lucky that they only forbade you from entering their house.”
Xiao Lingyu was pregnant with Gong Tianhao’s child. No matter how this child came about, Gong Tianhao knew that this child was his, but he never told the Xiao family or anyone. Instead, he let Xiao Lingyu suffer the criticism and contempt of outsiders. Any member of the Xiao Family would be furious. He was intentionally hurting their daughter.
He might have his reason, but that didn’t change the fact that he had hurt Xiao Lingyu. The Xiao Family loved their children very much. They wouldn’t forgive Gong Tianhao so easily.
This was already the fifth day.
During these five days, not to mention seeing Xiao Lingyu, he could not even step into the Xiao family.
Gong Tianhao’s sharp gaze glared at Situ Xing as he said, “Do you want me to kick you out too? I heard that Lan Yue is looking for you…”
“Boss. Please don’t!” Upon hearing the name Lan Yue, Situ Xing’s expression changed drastically. He said anxiously, “I’ll shut up now.”

If he were caught by that crazy woman, Lan Yue, he definitely wouldn’t have a good life.
Gong Tianhao curled his lips and said, “I don’t need you to shut up. I need you to figure out how to solve this problem. What should I do now?
“Situ Xing, you were the one who told me to fake an illness. So you have to think of a way to solve it. Or else, I’ll call Lan Yue…”
“Please, Boss. I’ll work on it now!” Situ Xing immediately said. But in his heart, he muttered to himself, ‘You were the one who approved of that idea. You lost control of yourself and exposed the false illness. How can you push the blame on me?’
But since he was Boss, there was nothing he could do. Otherwise, with a call from his boss, he might need to leave this Taoyuan Village and the many good foods.
Gong Tianhao looked at Situ Xing and asked suspiciously, “Ol Eight, why are you muttering? Are you scolding me?”
Situ Xing immediately quivered and shook his head violently. Then, he said with an embarrassed smile, “Boss, you are my Boss. Why would I scold you?” Technically, he was only complaining.
Gong Tianhao nodded with satisfaction and said, “In that case, think of a way to help me get back into the Xiao Family.” At this point, he glanced at Old Master Gong, who was sitting on the side, and Situ Xing, who was feeling wronged. He said, “I don’t believe that you don’t want to go to the Xiao family after so many days.”
Old Master Gong was instantly enraged when he heard this.
He said loudly, “You Little Brat, how dare you bring this up? Even I am now banned by the Xiao Family because of you!”
However, Gong Tianhao didn’t feel guilty at all, “Grandfather, you were my accomplice in the first place. You knew about those two secrets. The Xiao family naturally won’t be merciful towards accomplices.”
Ever since Gong Tianhao’s secrets were exposed, the Xiao Family showed no mercy to Old Master Gong either. They rejected him from coming for free meals. Old Master Gong said he wanted to see his granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson, but that only angered the Xiao Family even more.
As for Situ Xing, Gong Tianhao sold him out easily. The Xiao Family found out he was the one who came up with the idea.
Old Master Gong was speechless. He regretted hiding those secrets for the brat. If he didn’t, the Xiao Family wouldn’t be so angry at him.
Old Master Gong glared at Gong Tianhao and said, “Brat, you’ve dragged me into this, so this is your fault. You have to solve this as soon as possible or else just wait and see. Even after the child is born, he’ll have nothing to do with
you!”
Gong Tianhao, “…” He also wanted to resolve it as soon as possible.
That evening, Xiao Lingyu rubbed her stomach, looking very relaxed. After wiping her mouth, she said to the Xiao family, “Dad, Mom, I’m going out for a walk.”

Mother Xiao’s gaze was cold as she glanced at her and said, “It’s already so late. Why are you still going out?”
“I just finished eating, and my stomach is full. Of course, I have to go out for a walk to aid digestion,” Xiao Lingyu said. “And it’s only past six o’clock now. The sky is still very bright. It’s not late at all.”
Mother Xiao nodded and said, “That’s fine. Shuo ‘Er, go with your sister.”
Mother Xiao called out to Xiao Lingshuo, who was eating fruits at the side.
Xiao Lingshuo was holding an ice-cold watermelon and eating it slowly. Suddenly, he heard Mother Xiao’s voice and raised his head. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and replied, “Yes, okay!”
Mother Xiao immediately instructed him, “Shuo ‘Er, you know that your sister is pregnant. Nothing can happen to her. No living beings are allowed to get close to her. Those dogs and children are definitely not allowed to get close to her. Oh, you also can’t let that big liar get close to her too. Understood?”
Xiao Lingshuo looked at his sister and said, “Big Liar, who is that?”
Mother Xiao replied with a faint “hmph”, her eyes sharp.
Xiao Lingshuo’s eyes flashed for a moment before he replied, “Oh, I know. I will definitely listen to Auntie and stop all living beings from approaching my sister!”
Xiao Lingshuo supported Xiao Lingyu as they walked to the side of the road. Then, they saw a figure standing by a big tree. Xiao Lingshuo’s eyes flashed for a moment before he said, “Sis, there are a lot of mosquitoes under that tree. Pregnant women attract more mosquitoes. Why don’t we go to the other side of the road?”
Xiao Lingyu glanced at this kid and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve used some harmless moxa grass to drive the mosquitoes away.”
Xiao Lingshuo, “…” His Sister was now like a young lady who was secretly dating her lover behind her parent’s back.
His second aunt sent him out to accompany his Sister. It was clear that his job was to stop the couple from meeting each other.
‘But to stop or not to stop?’ Xiao Lingshuo thought to himself.
Just as Xiao Lingshuo was thinking, the two of them had already arrived under the big tree.
Then, Gong Tianhao walked out calmly with something in his hand.
The moment Xiao Lingshuo saw Gong Tianhao, he immediately stood in front of Xiao Lingyu and said to Gong Tianhao, “Brother Gong, I’m sorry. Under second aunt’s orders, any living being is barred from coming near my sister, especially a big liar with the surname Gong.”
The big liar with the surname Gong, “…”
Gong Tianhao raised his eyebrows and curled his lips. He looked at the thing in his hand and said calmly, “It seems like I have to throw this latest game console away then.”
Xiao Lingshuo’s eyes flashed. He asked curiously, “Game console? What game console?”
“Of course, it’s…” Gong Tianhao hooked the fish and said, “Why should I tell you?”
Xiao Lingshuo, “…” What is going on? Isn’t Brother Gong supposed to bribe me? How did he get the upper hand so fast?
However, the temptation of the game console was too great. Xiao Lingshuo looked around and said loudly while holding his stomach, “Aiyo, my stomach hurts so much. I have to go take a shit now. Sis, wait for me here for a while.”
After saying that, he bent his body and ran away. However, as he ran away, he took the game console from Gong Tianhao’s hand and left. Then, he stopped not far away, sat on the grass, and played the game console seriously.
Xiao Lingyu looked at him and said with a laugh, “You and your endless bribes. Yesterday, you bought a set of cosmetics for my sister, and the day before yesterday, you gave my grandmother a box of sweets. Today, you bought a game console for my brother.”
All the bribed individuals found an excuse to leave and left the couple be.
Gong Tianhao spread his hands and said with a smile, “This is all thanks to you for telling me their weaknesses. Or else I couldn’t come up with the perfect bribe.”
After Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu talked about it, Xiao Lingyu forgave Gong Tianhao’s acting. She understood his intention behind it.
However, the Xiao family was different. They didn’t care much about Gong Tianhao’s identity. They cared more about the fact that Gong Tianhao had allowed Yu ‘Er to suffer all the humiliation while he knew the child in her stomach was his.
It was hard for them to forgive him.
If he had confessed to them in the past, they would still be angry, but it was ultimately an accident that Xiao Lingyu got pregnant with his child. Eventually, they would forgive him.
But, now… He had been to Taoyuan Village for months, there were many opportunities for him to come clean. He didn’t say anything, which made them very angry.
Therefore, ever since the Xiao family had brought Xiao Lingyu back home, the Xiao family had refused to let anyone from the Gong family visit them. These members of the Gong family, of course, included Old Master Gong, Situ Xing, Xiao Wang, Xiao Zhao, and others.
As for Gong Tianhao, he was the main culprit.
Pity the young couple who was in love. They had to find many ways to date away from the prying eyes of the Xiao Family.
However, Mother Xiao and Father Xiao were very cautious. Every time Xiao Lingyu wanted to go out, they would send someone to accompany Xiao Lingyu. So it was hard for the couple to be alone.
To be alone with Gong Tianhao, Xiao Lingyu had thought of many ways. For example, she would complain of thirst in the middle of the walk. She would send her guardian back to get the water. As soon as the guardian left, Gong Tianhao appeared and quickly disappeared with Xiao Lingyu.
When the guardian returned, they knew what Xiao Lingyu had done.
After Mother Xiao found out, she immediately prepared a thermos cup. When Xiao Lingyu went out, she had to carry the thermos and snacks. She wouldn’t be able to complain of hunger and thirst anymore.
Since this couldn’t work anymore, Xiao Lingyu had to think of something else.
Gong Tianhao stepped up and thought of bribery. He bribed the guardians one after another.
This style of dating was very novel and exciting for Xiao Lingyu.
