Hearing this, Gu Xiao threw a strange look at Ji Chen and took the doc.u.ment from him.

She read it bit by bit, and her expression gradually turned ugly.

Chu An sat at the side and was curious about the contents of the doc.u.ment that Ji Chen had given her. However, without Gu Xiaos permission, he didnt take the initiative to peek at it.

After reading the contents of the doc.u.ment, Gu Xiao took a deep breath and handed the doc.u.ment to Chu An before looking at Ji Chen again.

Brother, you already knew about this?

Ji Chen shook his head. When the Ji Group was in trouble, 1 had more interactions with our father, so I noticed the change in him.

For example, if he was around, Ji Gao wouldnt pick up the phone even if he heard it ring. He might even hang up directly, and the ringtone for those calls were all the same. However, after he left, Ji Gao would call back. He should be calling back the person he had previously hung up on.

Ji Gao wanted to hide it from him, but he was still discovered by him. He was afraid that it would affect Gu Xiao, so just as Gu Xiao and Old Master Ji fell out and Ji Gao wanted to chase Gu Xiao away under Li Wens pressure, he took the opportunity to let Gu Xiao leave the Ji family.

Now, it seemed that his decision back then was not wrong.

Gu Xiao frowned. Brother, then you

Although its a little unexpected, I can still bear it. After all, he was not very close to Ji Gao.

When he was young, perhaps he still had some kins.h.i.+p with Ji Gao. However, when Old Master Ji discovered his talent in business and nurtured him as the heir, Ji Gao gradually distanced himself from him.

In fact, in the few times they met after that, he would notice that Ji Gao was hiding his jealousy and fear of him.

Chu An had also finished reading the contents of the doc.u.ment. He looked at Ji Chen in disbelief and then at Gu Xiao lovingly.

This, Ji Gao actually has an illegitimate child outside? Hes even about the same age as Xiaoxiao?

Chu An was a little surprised, and his voice sounded a little surreal.

Even if he didnt understand the situation in the aristocratic circle, he had heard of Ji Gao and Jiang Hes loving relations.h.i.+p. They were famous.

However, he did not expect such a loving couple to have such a thing behind their faithful, loving facades.

Chu An found it a little funny, but also a little sad.

Ji Chen nodded at Chu An. At that time, when I found out that my father had an affair and the illegitimate child was the same age as Xiaoxiao, I felt that there was something wrong, so I investigated further.

After all, these things were too coincidental.

When Gu Xiao was just born, she was deliberately swapped. The mistress child was only half a month younger than Gu Xiao. Such coincidences made people suspect that there was something fishy going on.

Some things that even ordinary people would suspect, Ji Chen, who was even more thoughtful, would not let go of the suspicious points, so he continued to investigate.

Ji Chen looked at Gu Xiao and pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

Gu Xiao, on the other hand, had already guessed something. Seeing Ji Chens expression, she was completely sure.

She smiled at Ji Chen. If you have found out anything else, why dont you tell me? Dont worry, I can handle it.

The thoughts of everyone present werent simple. When Chu An heard Gu Xiaos words, he understood the meaning behind them.

Now, he could not care less about Ji Chen who was still there. He moved closer to Gu Xiao and held her hand comfortingly.

Under Chu Ans cover, Gu Xiaos slightly cold hand gradually warmed up, as if the other partys hands had given her endless strength.

Perhaps it was only with Chu Ans support that she could face the truth with ease.

Although Ji Chen could not bear to see Chu An taking advantage of Gu Xiao, after seeing Gu Xiaos expression improve a lot, he still tacitly agreed to Chu Ans actions.

Ji Chen sighed. Under Gu Xiao and Chu Ans gazes, he said lightly, Its indeed as you think. The Gu couple wasnt the only reason why Xiaoxiao was swapped.

Gu Xiao and Chu An already had some guesses in their hearts, so they didnt seem very shocked by Ji Chens words..
