Ye Xingbei’s heart suddenly throbbed.
She gazed at him, entranced.
After a long while, she lifted her face, kissed Gu Junzhu’s lips, and murmured, "Gu Junzhu... I love you..."
She truly loved this man deeply.
Every word he said sounded beautiful to her.
Every sentence he spoke seemed reasonable to her.
As long as he was there, her eyes would automatically follow him.
She loved everything about him.
Gu Junzhu hugged her tightly, let out a low laugh, kissed her ear, and in a charming voice, as melodious as heavenly music, said, "Ye Xiaobei... I love you too!"
By the time the car stopped at Xiao Shumiao’s school gate, Ye Xingbei had calmed down for a while, but her face was still flushed like she had drunk wine, making her look even more captivating than usual.
Gu Junzhu said, "Don’t get out of the car."
He really didn’t want anyone to see his wife looking so delicate.
Ye Xingbei punched him, "It’s all your fault!"
"Alright, blame me, blame me." Fifth Lord of Gu admitted his mistake in a good-natured way, kissed her, and got out, carefully closing the car door.
A few minutes later, Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue, Qin Junye walked out of the school gate with the life tutor.
From a distance, Xiao Shumiao saw Gu Junzhu and waved excitedly, "Daddy, Daddy, you’re here! Xiao Shu missed you so much!"
He looked so excited, as if he hadn’t seen his parents for a long time, even though it had only been a day.
Gu Junzhu smiled at him from afar and waved back.
Xiao Shumiao sprinted towards him like he was in a 100-meter dash, climbing onto him with both hands and feet, "Daddy!"
"Good boy!" Gu Junzhu bent down, picked him up, ruffled his little head, and kissed him hard.
"Daddy, where’s Mommy?" Xiao Shumiao asked, "Why isn’t Mommy with you?"
Gu Junzhu turned around holding him, "Your mom is in the car."
Gu Chi opened the car door for them.
Gu Junzhu put Xiao Shumiao into the car.
Seeing Ye Xingbei sitting inside, Xiao Shumiao threw himself into her arms, "Mommy, why didn’t you come out to wait for me? Are you feeling unwell?"
Every time Ye Xingbei and Gu Junzhu came to pick him up, they would wait for him outside the car.
"Uh... no..." Ye Xingbei was embarrassed to lie to her son, nor did she want to tell the truth, so she coughed and changed the subject, "Did you have fun at school today?"
"Fun, it was so much fun," Xiao Shumiao said excitedly, "The teacher rearranged the seats and now Brother Xiaoyue sits on my left, Brother Ye sits on my right."
"Really?" Ye Xingbei said, "That’s wonderful."
"Yes," Xiao Shumiao nodded vigorously, "It’s so wonderful!"
Lingyue and Qin Junye got into the car too, and upon seeing Ye Xingbei, Lingyue called her "Teacher’s wife," while Qin Junye called her "Aunt."
Ye Xingbei was stunned for a moment, suddenly realizing that Qin Junye hadn’t officially become their apprentice yet; she and Gu Junzhu were not his teachers yet.
When chatting with Gu Junzhu privately, she’d often talk about the apprentices, subconsciously considering Qin Junye as one. Just earlier at Zhi Foliu’s flower shop, she even told Zhi Foliu she had taken a new apprentice.
But was that true?
Not really!
She felt a bit dejected.
People often say pregnancy makes you silly for three years.
She hadn’t even been pregnant yet, so why was she already so silly?
As she was feeling regretful, she heard her precious son whispering to Qin Junye, "Brother Ye, don’t ask my mom why she’s feeling unwell."
