Chapter 153 - 154: Did you remember, or didn’t you?
A moment later, he figured it out, and pinching Ye Xingbei’s chin, he chuckled, “Ye Xiaobei, your drunk, aren’t you?”
“Scram!” Ye Xingbei swatted his hand away and glared at him, “I am not drunk!”
Her eyes were wide open, just like a silly but cute cat.
Gu Junzhu couldn’t help but smile, bending down to kiss Ye Xingbei’s lips…
*
All night, Ye Xingbei was so tired that she dreamt incessantly.
She woke up startled.
Opening her eyes, she saw Gu Junzhu, completely entangled around her, sound asleep.
Ye Xingbei was so angry that she twisted him with all her might and pushed him.
Gu Junzhu woke up, motionless, and planted a kiss on her lips, “Good morning!”
“Good morning my foot!” Ye Xingbei bit him in anger, “Why can’t you sleep in your spot? What are you doing coming over here? You gave me nightmares all night long, OK?”
She wiped off the cold sweat on her forehead, her heart still pounding with fear.
She was terrified of snakes.
Dreaming of being tightly wrapped around by a python, she woke up with her heart still pounding with fear.
Gu Junzhu looked down at his own posture, holding Ye Xingbei tightly in his arms, he cleared his throat, letting go of Ye Xingbei and raising his hands in surrender, “I’ll be careful next time!”
Ye Xingbei gave him an icy look and then twisted him hard again. She was about to say something, when Xiao Shumiao’s soft voice rang, “Good morning, Mom and Dad!”
The words were halted at Ye Xingbei’s lips, replaced with a warm smile, “Good morning, sweetheart!”
Gu Junzhu clucked his tongue, “Ye Xiaobei, did you learn from a master of face-changing in Sichuan Opera?”
She was ruthless towards him.
But with their little guy, she was as gentle as spring water.
Ye Xingbei glared at him, “Xiao Shu is saying good morning to you!”
“Good morning, wife!” Gu Junzhu planted a kiss on Ye Xingbei’s face, turned to scoop up their little guy and gave him a kiss, too. “Good morning, son, let’s get up now!”
The little guy laughingly echoed him, “Let’s get up!”
The father and son, laughing and playing, dressed up and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
Ye Xingbei found it both funny and exasperating. Suddenly, she felt as if she wasn’t raising one son, but two.
If she recorded Fifth Master of Gu’s indecent behaviour at home and showed it to people who knew him, they would probably think she hired an impersonator to imitate him.
Shaking her head, she threw off her blanket, wanting to get out of bed to freshen up.
Once she moved, she felt her body aching everywhere, as if it had been disassembled and put back together haphazardly.
She was stunned for a moment, and the events of last night slowly surfaced from the depth of her mind.
Ye Xingbei froze at the bedside, her face as if it had been struck by lightning.
Had she… Did she sleep with Junzhu last night?
Ye Xingbei felt like crying but had no tears.
How could she really have slept with Gu Junzhu last night?
How could she be so shameless, so undignified, so dishonourable?
There were no feelings between her and Gu Junzhu, they were just living together, how could she have slept with Gu Junzhu?
It was all because of those damn drinks!
‘In wine, there’s truth’, the ancient wise were not lying!
Ye Xingbei regretted deeply, banging her head hard against the wall.
But it was already too late for regret.
Fortunately, she and Gu Junzhu were legally married.
She had slept with her own husband, not someone else’s husband or boyfriend, so no one would charge her with adultery or condemn her from the moral high ground.
This must be the silver lining of the cloud.
She tried her best to recall and everything about last night became clearer and clearer.
She even remembered her own unconscious moans of pleasure.
She was so embarrassed that she covered her face, wishing the earth would swallow her up.
She would never dare to drink again.
Really.
Never again!
However, she wasn’t the type to shy away from reality.
If she had been spineless and cowardly, she would have been forced to marry the lame son of the deputy mayor by her unscrupulous aunt and uncle when she was fifteen and wouldn’t have the life she has today.
Since it happened, she would face it bravely.
Ye Xingbei slapped her face hard, telling herself, it’s alright, last night she was drunk, she hired a gigolo and had a good time!
How did Xiang Bingzhi hook up with Luo Fengming?
Gu Junzhu is much more handsome than Luo Fengming!
By this calculation, she still profited from last night.
Ye Xingbei had been through tough times and twists of fate in her life, it was by this indomitable spirit and self-deception that she survived and made her life better and better.
She quickly adjusted her mentality and got out of bed to freshen up.
After Gu Junzhu and the little guy had finished washing and dressing up, Ye Xingbei also freshened up.
They all came out of two different bathrooms, Gu Junzhu cast a probing glance at Ye Xingbei, he noticed she looked the same and was a bit puzzled, did Ye Xingbei remember last night’s events or had she forgotten?
