Gu Xiaoxi once again fell into a deep sleep.
She slept for half a month afterwards.
The resolution of the International Alliance affair also spread her legendary status around the world.
For instance, some said she was an angel.
Others claimed she was a child of the Creator God.
And some even said she was the reincarnation of the Goddess of Life...
Within the International Alliance.
Jing Rui, Huo Jin, and others wrote their mission reports.
Most of which were filled with adoration for Gu Xiaoxi.
Even the elders who had once looked down on Gu Xiaoxi did a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn in their attitudes toward her.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxi was regarded as the reincarnation of a god in their hearts.
They could offend anyone, but not her.
In her dazed state, Gu Xiaoxi felt something like a mosquito crawling on her face.
She suddenly opened her eyes to see a round little face in front of her and was startled into sitting up.
"Mommy, you’re finally awake." Quan Jinling happily hugged Gu Xiaoxi’s neck and planted a firm kiss on her forehead.
Gentlely touching her son’s face, Gu Xiaoxi smiled slightly, "Did you miss Mommy?"
"Isn’t that obvious? You’ve been asleep for half a month. I’ve been with you every day, and you didn’t wake up." The little one clung to Gu Xiaoxi’s neck, unwilling to let go.
Looking around, Gu Xiaoxi saw that the curtains were drawn. Through the gap, she could see the bright sun shining outside.
She got out of bed with the child in her arms and drew back the curtains.
The garden was full of flowers competing in splendor.
In the noonday sun, the sky was crystal clear and cloudless.
Such beautiful weather.
"Baby, where’s Dad?" Gu Xiaoxi asked, looking down.
"He’s downstairs with the handsome uncle."
Setting down Quan Jinling, Gu Xiaoxi stretched lazily against the blue sky.
Then, she took the child and went downstairs together.
At the top of the stairs, she could hear Young Master Quan and Ya talking downstairs.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded in understanding, the handsome uncle mentioned by Quan Jinling turned out to be Ya.
"Xiao Xi is out of danger now, and she’s about to wake up. I needn’t keep you here any longer," Quan Shaoqing’s tone was clearly dismissive.
Ya’s voice was slightly cold, "You’re sending me away so quickly? That’s rather inconsiderate. After all, she and I are friends."
"Friends?" Quan Shaoqing looked up, a trace of ice in his eyes.
If they were truly just friends, that would be fine.
He feared that some people harbored ulterior motives!
Luckily, he met her first and took her home as his wife earlier.
If it had been any later, who knows how many admirers this woman would have had.
One Mi Xi was enough, and now there was another Ya.
Did he owe them something in his past life?
"What are you two talking about?" Gu Xiaoxi found their conversation strange. Pulling the child along, she walked over.
Quan Shaoqing, initially in the midst of making tea, nearly dropped his teacup onto the floor upon hearing her voice.
He immediately stood up, taking hold of her hand with immense excitement, "You’re finally awake."
Gu Xiaoxi’s lips gently curved into a smile, seeing the concern in his eyes, she said apologetically, "I’m sorry for making you worry."
Suddenly, Quan Shaoqing wrapped his arms around her, his face bright with a smile, "It’s all in the past now."
Ya, observing their deeply affectionate gaze, coughed slightly.
He stood up, looked towards Gu Xiaoxi, and said, "Now that you’re awake, it’s time for me to leave."
After that, he turned suavely and vanished quickly.
Gu Xiaoxi hadn’t even had the chance to thank him.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxi’s furrowed brows, Quan Shaoqing felt a sourness in his heart, "Wife, where are you looking?"
"Stop it! Ya must have helped a lot..." Gu Xiaoxi’s voice abruptly cut off, and she remembered the International Alliance, asking, "Has the International Alliance been looking for me to return?"
