BXBX NOVEL Chapter 253 - 254: Fifth Lord of Gu, Are You Really Alright?
Even Lingyue, she cared for deeply.
She raised her hand to touch Lingyue’s head, saying kindly, “Xiao Yue, don’t rush martial arts training. There’s plenty of time in the future. Nothing is more important than your health. First get better, okay?”
The tenderness and affection in her eyes were obvious.
No one had looked at him with such tender, loving eyes ever since his grandmother left the world.
Warmth started to rise in Lingyue’s chest; his nose became sour as his eyes grew moist.
Fearful of shedding tears, he quickly lowered his head. “Sure Auntie, I’ll listen to you.”
“Good boy!” Ye Xingbei stood up, patted him on the head. “Let’s go, come back home with Auntie. Let’s drink some water and eat some fruit.”
She then touched Xiao Shu’s head asking: “Xiao Shu, have you eaten any fruit today?”
“Not yet!” The kid squeezed between Ye Xingbei and Lingyue, holding Ye Xingbei’s hand with one hand and Lingyue’s with the other, grinning happily, “Let’s eat together with Mommy and Brother Xiaoyue!”
Then, he added, “We should take it to the study for Daddy!”
Ye Xingbei:”…”
Son, you really never forget about your cheap dad when good things happen, do you?
Back in the living room, Ye Xingbei prepared the fruit.
The first plate was eagerly taken by the little one to the study.
A moment later, Gu Junzhu walked out of the study, carrying the fruit plate in one hand and holding the little one’s hand in the other, and sat down next to Ye Xingbei, “How do you feel? Can we go out tonight?”
Ye Xingbei gave him a blank look.
Although she meant to refuse, she thought about his innocent brothers.
It wouldn’t be fair to spoiled their fun just because of this jerk, she swallowed the words as they reached her mouth.
Gu Junzhu looked her up and down: “If you like, let’s cancel. They can gather by themselves, and I’ll stay home with you.”
“No need,” Ye Xingbei said coldly, “I have nothing to do tonight anyway, and it might be good to take Xiao Shu and Xiao Yue out for some distraction.”
Kids love to play and make noise. Being here, not having to go to school, taking them out for distractions is better than moping at home.
The little one glanced at Gu Junzhu, then at Ye Xingbei, before turning his face to Gu Junzhu to ask, “Daddy, did you make mommy angry?”
Gu Junzhu coughed: “No.”
“You definitely did!” The little one jumped off the sofa and rushed into his arms, shaking him by the shoulders, “Daddy, Mommy’s angry. Say sorry to Mommy, quickly!”
Gu Junzhu: “…”
That’s a cheap son for sure!
When it comes to crucial times, he sides with his mom!
He glanced at Ye Xingbei and picked up a piece of fruit, offering it to Ye Xingbei’s lips, “Try this, it’s sweet.”
The little one cuddled up in Gu Junzhu’s arms, blinking his eyes expectantly at Ye Xingbei.
Under the intense watch of the little one, Ye Xingbei had no choice but to eat the fruit.
The little one sighed in relief, beaming, and clapped his small hands, “Mommy isn’t mad anymore! Daddy is the best!”
Ye Xingbei:”…”
In what way was that jerk the best?
I really feel like flipping the table!
Gu Junzhu laughed, holding the little one in his arms and kissed him.
The little guy was tickled by his beard, chuckled and wriggled in his arms, “Daddy, your beard is growing out, you should shave!”
Ye Xingbei glanced at him curiously.
Nothing, though.
His skin was so white and clean with no beard in sight.
Gu Junzhu caught her curious gaze, grabbed her hand and pressed it against his chin, “It’s there. I just shaved this morning and it’s growing back.”
Being a man, quick beard growth implies his virility!
Noticing the triumphant tone in his voice, Ye Xingbei’s mouth twitched.
Feeling proud about quick beard growth?
Are you sure you’re alright, Fifth Lord of Gu?
