It was still the same anonymous number just now. Gu Lian's intuition was a little strange. She took the phone and walked behind Lu Zechen.
"It's still the same number."
Lu Zechen washed the fruit and said casually: "You take it."
Gu Lian answered the call, but this time he didn't speak. Instead, he put the phone next to Lu Zechen's face.
"Hey." Lu Zechen said.
There was silence on the phone for a while.
Gu Lian thought that the other party was going to be silent again, but the next second, a crisp voice came over.
"dad."
The kitchen was quiet for a while, except for the sound of water running from the faucet.
The volume of the mobile phone was loud, and Gu Lian was close enough to hear clearly even if the speakerphone was not turned on.
Lu Zechen frowned, "Who are you?"
"Is it daddy?" It was obviously a child's voice.
Lu Zechen didn't even think about it and looked at Gu Lian, "I made the wrong call. I'm going to hang up."
When Gu Lian heard the word "Dad", he was basically sure that the other person made a mistake.
Her heart dropped heavily and she stared at Lu Zechen, her hand movements slowing down for a moment.
The voice came from the phone again, "That's right, dad, I was just calling you."
Lu Zechen turned off the faucet and wanted to get his phone.
Gu Lian took a step back, looked at him steadily, and pressed the speakerphone at the same time.
The child's voice was very clear and he continued: "Mom said I can call you."
Mother……
Gu Lian was almost certain.
It's Milan.
Lu Zechen also realized that this was not a joke. His eyes flickered and he looked up at Gu Lian. His first reaction was not to let her misunderstand.
But the voice on the phone continued. It was obviously a simple and cute baby voice, but it sounded like the voice of a devil.
The child kept asking if he was his father.
After a long time, Gu Lian found his voice and asked, "Who is your mother?"
As soon as she spoke, the phone went silent for a moment and hung up.
This kind of cover-up attitude is too suspicious.
Gu Lian put down his hand and held the phone tightly. His expression was numb and calm, but his hands were shaking unconsciously.
Lu Zechen threw away the fruit and frowned, "It's just a phone call, are you going to sentence me?"
Just like on a cruise ship.
The feeling of falling from heaven to hell, Gu Lian felt numb and helpless, while Lu Zechen felt angry and unwilling to be played.
He took a step forward, and before Gu Lian had time to retreat, he held her shoulders with both hands.
"I asked you to give me more trust. A phone call means nothing."
He was actually right. The phone call just now had no substance. In fact, it could be treated as a nuisance call.
But she had previously suspected that he and Mi Lan had a child, and this phone call was undoubtedly a confirmation.
Lu Zechen met her eyes, trying to see a little trust in her eyes, but failed.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't hurt, but he didn't want to accuse him.
He came closer and held her in his arms, "Just wait a moment, I'll have someone check the source of the call."
Gu Lian leaned in his arms, motionless.
Somewhat shaken.
In her heart, she didn't actually believe that Lu Zechen and Mi Lan would have a child. She just knew their past clearly and couldn't help but care about it. Underneath the grudge, there were seeds of doubt.
Lu Zechen let him go and went out to make a phone call.
The temperature in the space dropped instantly.
Gu Lian sat on the sofa outside. His appetite disappeared instantly. He pushed Nian Nian's cradle, but what he was thinking about was Lu Zechen's lost expression just now.
