From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!

Sure, here is the translation:

However, Gu Qidong isn’t indifferent, rather he knows that children have their own ideas. He lets them be wild, and when they’ve had enough and are tired, they’ll naturally come home on their own... Of course, this doesn’t include Gu San, whom he personally cast out.

Gu Qidong said to Gu Ningyi, ”We must avenge your brother in the Gu Family. No matter how powerful the Jialanluo Clan is, we need to give them a ruthless blow so they won’t underestimate the Human Alliance’s Gu Family as being made of mud. I know you’re close to someone from the Jialanluo Royal Family; from today, stay away from them... who knows, one day, he might die at your hands...”

Gu Qidong, though an Alliance Admiral, is first and foremost the father of his three sons! As an Admiral, he can’t offend the powerful Jialanluo Clan just for Gu Ningxuan’s death. But as a father, anyone who backs down is a coward!

”I know... I’ve already severed ties...” Gu Ningyi said with a cold face, his expression revealing no emotion.

Gu Ningxuan is already dead, and there’s no way to save him... But he left behind two children. Gu Ningzhi won’t let them get hurt either. So, Gu Ningzhi made a bold move. Facing Huaixi, and seeing Gong Yulu’s stunned eyes, he said, ”Xiao Xi, do you remember your uncle? Uncle has been here before when you were quite small...”

Huaixi naturally doesn’t remember, and Gu Ningzhi doesn’t feel discouraged. Instead, he says with a smile, ”Your mother and I are good friends, and now... well... would you and Xiao Feng like to live with uncle? Uncle will take care of you as if you were his own!”

”Why?” Huaixi isn’t a three-year-old child; he’s not easy to deceive. Whether or not this uncle is a friend of his mother’s is beside the point; suddenly wanting to take care of him and treating him like his own child... that’s strange.

”Because... by blood relation, you and Xiao Feng should call me Second Uncle.” Gu Ningzhi raised his hand to touch Huaixi’s hair, speaking softly, ”Your father’s name was Gu Ningxuan, the man who lived with you for five years. He’s my third brother, but because of certain incidents, he forgot past events and had a misunderstanding with your mother... so he didn’t know about you two, and missed the best chance to acknowledge you... It’s dangerous out there now, so why don’t you let your Second Uncle take care of you?”

Gu Ningxuan? Is he Ningxuan Uncle? Is Ningxuan Uncle his real dad? Huaixi and his little friends were all shocked!

He always wished Ningxuan Uncle could be his dad and hoped Ningxuan Uncle and his mom could be together, but when someone told him his wish wasn’t just a dream but a reality... his heart wasn’t as happy as it initially would have been.

Under Changxi’s guidance, Huaixi’s mind isn’t that of an average six-year-old; he has his own way of thinking. Gu Ningzhi’s move, however, ended up backfiring, making Huaixi doubt what happened before... doubt Gu Ningxuan...

”I don’t believe it!” the little guy replied with a stern face, not revealing the joy Gu Ningzhi expected... he thought that after losing all relatives, suddenly having family again would make the little guy happy, but unexpectedly... he denied it outright?

”If you don’t believe it, we can compare your genetic sequence with mine, and also your dad’s...” Gu Ningzhi offered, asserting that when it comes to gene sequences, proof is as solid as a mountain!

”Even if compared, I still don’t believe it!” Huaixi suddenly raised his voice, then his expression turned dim, ”I’m sorry... uncle, I didn’t mean to be like this... it’s just that I can’t comment on matters from my mother’s generation... if she truly loved my real dad, she wouldn’t have told Xiao Feng and me, ’Even without a father, Mom will take good care of you and give you the best life.’ Did Ningxuan Uncle lose his memory, but did my mom forget him too?”

In the little guy’s opinion, his parents surely must’ve fallen in love before they had him and his brother, so even though Gu Ningxuan forgot, he could act as if nothing happened, but his mom must remember. However, after meeting Ningxuan Uncle, she acted normal, not even like she knew him... so, this indicates she might not be keen on them acknowledging this father?

According to his logic, this inference isn’t wrong. But the error is that Su Jiameng actually doesn’t know Gu Ningxuan, much less know that he is the biological father of the two little buns! And Gu Ningzhi’s explanation was rather ambiguous...

So, the ”deceased” Gu Ningxuan can only helplessly take the blame. The good impression the two little buns had painstakingly built up to the level of ”admiration” has now reset to zero, and even shows signs of negativity... he’s truly hit while lying down in the crossfire _(:з)∠)_

Gu Ningzhi finally realized the massive mistake he made, but unfortunately, it was too late to remedy it. Could he tell Xiao Xi and the little bun that their mom and dad didn’t follow the normal process but created the buns without even meeting each other?

He had a hunch that if he said it, this little guy might turn dark and put a cross over his already ”deceased” third brother!

”Sigh... even if that’s the case, you and Xiao Feng are Ningxuan’s children, bound by blood, and that’s not something you can deny with words. You’ve suffered too much before, and now... for the sake of your father, who has passed, can you forgive his negligence and mistakes?” Gu Ningzhi dropped a monumental bomb, causing Huaixi’s eyes to widen, stumbling a step back.

”Let Second Uncle, Big Uncle, along with grandparents and other elders, take care of you?” Gu Ningzhi continued, ”Even if you don’t want to, think of Xiao Feng, Uncle Qian Chen, and Xiao He...”

Even though Huaixi is precocious, he’s only six years old. Within a few short minutes, he discovered who his real dad was, and before he could proudly decide not to like this dad, his Second Uncle told him... that dad was already gone...

Huaixi always knew Changxi was hiding something... but now he’s found out, and he doesn’t even have a mom anymore... (to be continued.
