"What? You’re not keen on the idea?"
"That’s not it, it’s just quite emotional." She sighed, "As if guarding against women isn’t enough, I have to guard against men too, how sad."
Long Yubei laughed, "You should look at the upside of this situation, seeing that you’ll have to keep a close eye on me. Otherwise, today I’m your husband, tomorrow I could be your ex."
Gu Lili closed her eyes, "So what if you’re not around, there are thousands of excellent men waiting for me. You should be the one watching out. If you dare to find a mistress, I dare to bring home ten or eight men for a wild party."
When the plane arrived at the Qinyuan District in City A, Gu Xichen was already waiting.
Seeing her being carried down by Long Yubei, Gu Xichen asked, "Are you okay?"
"My legs are almost broken."
Gu Xichen quickly said, "Then let’s go to the hospital."
"No need." Long Yubei interjected, "Going to the hospital will only result in those pen pushers writing nonsense. Our family doctor can handle it."
Gu Lili felt this made sense, "Right." Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI~Fire.net
After being rebandaged, Gu Xichen asked, "Who exactly took you away?"
Just as Gu Lili was about to speak, she noticed Long Yubei looking at her meaningfully, hinting her not to tell.
She pouted, "Just some pervert and lunatic man, I don’t know him."
"If you don’t know him, why did he go to such lengths to capture you?"
"I already said, it’s a madman and lunatic, do they need a reason to do things?"
"Did you offend him somehow?"
"My very existence offends him."
Gu Xichen subconsciously looked towards Long Yubei, "Is it because of you?"
Long Yubei replied indifferently, "If there’s nothing else, you can leave."
Gu Xichen huffed, "I am Lili’s brother, Long Yubei, you don’t call me ’brother’, fine, but you’re also chasing people away?"
"Call you what, scram already." He hurried Gu Lili, "Don’t let him come to our house in the future, I can do without seeing him."
Saying so, he left first.
Gu Xichen almost choked on his breath, "Look at what kind of husband you’ve found. He treats your family ; he must not be much better to you usually."
Gu Lili spoke lazily, "Mind your own business. My husband is right, if there’s nothing else, you can leave."
"..." Gu Xichen rolled his eyes, "You two really are a matched pair in singing the same tune. Fine, I’ll leave, you ungrateful person."
No sooner had Gu Xichen left, than Old Madam Long and Mr. Long arrived.
"Grandpa, Grandma, why have you come?"
"Beibei said you’d safely returned, we hurried over to see, Lili, how are you?"
"Nothing much, I’ll be fine after a few days of rest." She leaned back against the headboard of the bed.
"It’s good you’re okay, but you’ve suffered. Take good care of yourself." Old Madam Long took her hand, "And then there’s the matter I’m most concerned about; you must take it seriously. Have a child, get pregnant soon."
Gu Lili chuckled awkwardly, "But, Yu Bei doesn’t really want it yet."
"Silly girl, men are all like that. How many of them truly love children before they get married? But once the baby is born, they fall in love with it." Old Madam Long whispered her teaching, "Don’t listen to him. You have to use some little tricks, you know?"
"Grandma... what tricks..."
Old Madam Long whispered in her ear, leaving Gu Lili in shock, "Grandma, he’ll kill me if he finds out, right?"
"With Grandma here, what are you afraid of? You must do as Grandma tells you. Lili, Grandma wants to hear of your pregnancy within these two months, or I will not rest in peace."
