Chapter 265 Don't Leave Me

"Father!" Gu Yunzhen's small hand grasped Gu Qingsong's finger, tears welling up in his dark and bright eyes, "Grandfather said someone wanted to catch him, and he escaped from Zhen'er's tunnel. He has been gone for a while, please don't catch him back, okay?"

Gu Qingsong's hand that wanted to shake Gu Yunzhen away froze, and he looked back to see his pale and tender face, which was full of sickness, and he couldn't bear it.

"I caught him back to protect him." Gu Qingsong made a gesture, and the guards in the dark instantly entered the tunnel to catch Liu Mao.

He was not in a relaxed mood. Liu was tortured to death by him, and Liu Mao escaped. He was afraid that he would perish together and do something to hurt Gu Huaizhi or even Liu Guixiang.

Only when he imprisoned people under his nose did he feel safe.

"Is that so?" Gu Yunzhen wanted to believe the father he trusted the most in his heart, but after seeing his ruthlessness towards his mother, he was a little afraid of him. He asked carefully, "Will you forgive your mother?"

"No." Gu Qingsong would not continue to raise Gu Yunzhen. Even though he was still young, he was old enough to think. The more some facts were covered up, the more likely they would cause unnecessary misunderstandings in the future. So he squatted down, looked at the boy he had carefully nurtured, and said seriously, "Everyone has to pay the price for their mistakes. Your mother got pregnant with you from someone else and pretended to be my child to get a name. Your mother asked me to raise someone else's child for five or six years, secretly persecuting my own child."

"Zhen'er, I have raised you for so many years, and I have paid real love. It would be a lie to say that I have no feelings for you after learning your true life experience, but I can't keep you by my side." Gu Qingsong's cold face was very gloomy. Seeing Gu Yunzhen would remind him of how he was fooled around by Liu and his dead little son.

He couldn't accept Gu Yunzhen without any grudges.

"No one can choose their parents. You are an innocent child." Gu Qingsong watched Gu Yunzhen bite his lips, tears dripping down, crying silently, feeling equally uncomfortable, and turned his face away from him: "Your body needs treatment, I will send you to Master Mingjue of the White Horse Temple."

"No!" Gu Yunzhen couldn't hold it back as soon as he opened his mouth, and cried loudly: "I don't want it! You are my father! I want to follow you and don't want to go anywhere! Father, please, don't leave me!"

"I don't have a mother, only father!" Gu Yunzhen cried so hard that his nose bubbled, and his fingers tightly grasped Gu Qingsong's hand. The panic of being abandoned swept over him, and he begged desperately: "Father, don't leave me, I will be obedient, and I will not get sick and see a doctor in the future, okay?"

Liu's despair and Gu Yunzhen's panic reminded Gu Qingsong of Liu Guixiang.

She was alone with several children, poor and destitute, her youngest son was seriously ill, and there was no money for treatment. How desperate and terrified must she be at that time?

If he was by her side, their little son would not have died young and would still be alive today.

Gu Huaizhi would not have disowned him as his father.

In this life, even though he had achieved success and fame, he was not worthy of being a husband or a father, and could only be worthy of being the monarch of Xiliang.

Gu Qingsong said cruelly: "Dongxue, pack his luggage."

"Yes." Dongxue packed the boxes and cages swiftly.

Gu Qingsong also wrote a letter and gave it to Qin Ming, asking him to escort Gu Yunzhen to the White Horse Temple and personally hand the letter to Master Mingjue. Half of the family property in the mansion was donated as incense money, which was enough for the White Horse Temple to raise Gu Yunzhen to adulthood.
