My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce-Chapter 823 - : Acknowledge Qiao Yin Back into the Gu Family
Chapter 823: Chapter 823: Acknowledge Qiao Yin Back into the Gu Family
However, what Gu Chengqiao was thinking inside, he would not show on his face. His face was full of shame, “Yes, Dad, I was indeed foolish, I don’t know what came over me at the time, seeing others have sons, I myself was like possessed, wanting a son.”
“So, you were with Shen Tang because you wanted a son?”
The color of guilt on Gu Chengqiao’s face deepened, “Half of it was for that reason, and the other half was that I really found her attractive, and did like her a little.”
Gu Guotai’s brows furrowed tightly, “Then why did you cut off your relationship with her later? Because she couldn’t bear your child?”
“No.”
Gu Chengqiao paused before saying, “It was because she was also carrying a daughter… a daughter… didn’t have much use, I wanted a son.”
Gu Guotai was startled and quickly responded, “Could it be that Qiao Yin is—”
A faint smile surfaced on Gu Chengqiao’s face, “Right, Dad, Qiao Yin is actually your own granddaughter, you don’t have to reluctantly acknowledge her as your granddaughter, this could also be considered a good thing, right!”
Gu Guotai sat immobile in the wheelchair and looked at him for a good while, “So she already had a child, yet you broke off with her, hiding it from me, what unseemly, despicable things have you done?!”
“Dad, I know what I did was wrong back then, but I had no other choice, Jinhua was also making trouble with me and threatened to tell you about this, so I could only break off contact with Shen Tang.”
Sighing, Gu Chengqiao said, “It’s all because of my confusion at that time. However, don’t you really think it’s a good thing that Qiao Yin is your own granddaughter?”
Gu Guotai fell silent.
After a long time, he lowered his eyelids and said, “Indeed, it is a good thing.”

Gu Chengqiao smiled, knowing that his father was concerned about Qiao Yin’s medical skills and had considered acknowledging her as his granddaughter. Learning that she was truly his granddaughter must have relieved his heart.
Gu Guotai spoke in an even tone, “You should’ve told me earlier about this matter; then there wouldn’t have been all these complications.”
Gu Chengqiao quickly said, “I had just received the paternity test results and hadn’t had the chance to tell you when Jinhua stirred up trouble. What was supposed to be a joyous event was ruined by her; she really is spoiled beyond measure by the Hou Family, and I’m at a loss with her.”
“Indeed, she has been spoiled by the Hou Family.”
Gu Guotai didn’t like troublemakers, and he would be displeased with sons or grandsons who caused trouble, let alone a daughter-in-law.
However, now that Qiao Yin had suddenly become his granddaughter from an unrelated person, the trouble caused by Hou Jinhua didn’t seem significant anymore, after all, they were all from the Gu Family. Even if Qiao Yin was an illegitimate daughter, she still carried the Gu Family blood, and she wouldn’t escalate the matter.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t do Qiao Yin any good if the Gu Family lost face.
After thinking for a while, he said to his son, “Chengqiao, regardless of everything, we must acknowledge Qiao Yin back into our family. She possesses extraordinary medical skills, and for this alone, we should recognize her. And only by recognizing her and giving her the title of Miss Gu will her grandmother stop escalating your matters.”
Gu Chengqiao knew well that giving Qiao Yin the title of Miss Gu was just a pretense, what his father really wanted, was for Qiao Yin to continue treating his leg.
The medical skills of Qiao Yin and her grandmother were what truly held value. With them, his father’s future health was secured. If Qiao Yin wasn’t acknowledged, they would certainly not treat the Gu Family members again.
But, in truth, Gu Chengqiao didn’t actually want to acknowledge Qiao Yin back into the family; otherwise, he wouldn’t have dragged on until today before admitting this to Gu Guotai.
Because this was a stain on his character.
“Dad, I too want to acknowledge Qiao Yin back. However, she might not be willing to recognize the Gu Family, and she doesn’t seem to be the kind of person who would scheme for power and wealth. Moreover, what do we say to the outside world if we acknowledge her? We can’t just say she’s my illegitimate daughter; it’s not good for her, nor is it good for the reputation of our Gu Family.”
