“Fantastic!” Jiang Siyou exclaimed, unable to contain her excitement. She glanced down at her outfit, “I need to go home and change my clothes.”
“Okay,” Jiang Lingyu affectionately wrapped her arm around Jiang Siyou’s, “Let’s go, I’ll accompany you! Sis, you’re already a beauty who can allure any man. After dressing up a little more, you’ll certainly bewitch our second cousin into marrying you! Once you marry him, we won’t have to live at the mercy of Ye Xingbei any longer!”
Despite sincerely believing that her possible future marriage to Xie Jinfei would have little to do with Jiang Lingyu, Jiang Siyou realized that her relationship with Xie Jinfei was far from guaranteed.
Anticipating that she might need Jiang Lingyu’s help in the future, she decided to indulge her now.
She affectionately held Jiang Lingyu’s arm and promised, “I guarantee! As long as I can marry our second cousin, I will ask him to assist you in finding a dashing young man! His friends come from prestigious families, so he can definitely find you an excellent man!”
“Hmm,” Jiang Lingyu leaned her head against Jiang Siyou’s shoulder, her face beaming with satisfaction, “Sis, I’m depending on you for my future happiness, you must try your best!”
Meanwhile, the sisters were busy making plans for their bright future, and elsewhere Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei were preparing to take Xiao Shu to dine at Jiang City’s finest restaurant.
Jiang City’s grand restaurant was the best in town.
In the morning, Gu Junzhu had told Xiao Shu that he would treat him to dinner at the best restaurant in Jiang City that evening.
As the car stopped outside the school, many children were already lined up, waiting for their parents to pick them up.
Ye Yiyang recognized Gu Junzhu’s car, bid his teacher farewell, put his backpack on, and dashed towards the vehicle.
The moment Gu Junzhu stepped out of the car, the little fellow threw himself into his arms, clinging onto him like a koala. In his child-like voice, he sweetly warbled, “Daddy, daddy, I missed you.”
Gu Junzhu laughed as he bent down to scoop him up and kissed his tender cheeks, “Darling, daddy missed you too!”
Xiao Shu wrapped his tiny arms around Gu Junzhu’s neck, snuggling into his embrace and appeared as though he wished to be absorbed into his body.
Ye Xingbei also got out of the car, he playfully smacked his little bottom, teasing, “So you only want daddy, not mommy anymore?”
Xiao Shu giggled, his arms still wrapped around Gu Junzhu’s neck, he swiveled to plant a kiss on Ye Xingbei’s cheek, “Daddy is more muscular and thus better suited to hold me. Mommy has worked hard all day, she should rest.”
“…” Ye Xingbei smacked his little bottom again, “You little elf!”
Seeing the jealousy on Ye Xingbei’s face, Xiao Shu was about to appease him a little when he spotted Xueno standing not far behind Ye Xingbei. His beautiful big eyes sparkled, his voice ringing out crisply, “Brother Xueno!”
Xueno looked at him and warmly smiled.
Xiao Shu was overjoyed, “Brother Xueno, when did you get here? And where’s Brother Yu Nuo?”
Gu Junzhu, still holding Xiao Shu, narrowed his eyes at Xueno.
As if having a masseur bodyguard like Xueno wasn’t enough, there’s also a Yu Nuo?
Who might that person be?
However… Xiao Shu referred to Xueno as “brother”.
His wife’s bodyguard was of the same generation as Xiao Shu.
This made him a generation younger than him and his wife.
A bodyguard willing to be the junior would most likely have no interest in his wife.
Otherwise, he would have persuaded Xiao Shu to call him “Uncle” long ago.
When Gu Junzhu heard Xiao Shu call Xueno as “brother,” his suspicion of Xueno dropped a few percentage points..
