Chapter 311: Chapter 193: The Child Who Misses His Mother Can’t Be Hurt Chapter 311: Chapter 193: The Child Who Misses His Mother Can’t Be Hurt Seeing that his own little meat bun finally willing to speak, Gu Changsheng was so excited he could hardly contain himself.
“Son, why are you crying? What exactly happened?”
“Wu…” Little Meat Bun shook his tiny head, gasping between sobs, “Mom… Mom doesn’t want Gu Ze anymore… Wah…”
Taken aback by these words, Gu Changsheng quickly patted his little back and explained, “How could that be! My son is so well-behaved, so obedient, how could mom not want you?”
“Wu… Mom… Mom just doesn’t want Gu Ze anymore, Uncle Wood is back, and you only want Uncle Wood to accompany you, you don’t want Gu Ze anymore…” Little Meat Bun rubbed his meaty little hands across his face, turning his happy face into that of a little calico cat.
Gu Changsheng halted his subordinates who were about to go search for Yue Xilou and patiently continued to coax his son, “My dear, who told you mom only wants your Uncle Wood?”
“Auntie Qiu… Auntie Qiu is a bad person! Auntie Qiu won’t let me come back to see mom, saying that mom has Uncle Wood to accompany her, Wah…”
“F*ck!” Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but curse under his breath, inwardly cursing Han Qiu.
You say you skip home under the guise of her son’s name, and yet you even snitch in front of her son!
Han Qiu must have been sent by the heavens specifically to torment her, right?
“Gu Ze! Come out to your master at once!”
Just as Gu Changsheng was about to wipe his son’s messy face, a thunderous shout echoed through Baili Mountain, startling the birds into flying away in all directions.
In the brief moment Gu Changsheng was startled, Little Meat Bun Gu Ze jumped down from her body like a flying bird and quickly hid behind her and Zhou Mu.
Gu Changsheng exchanged a puzzled look with Zhou Mu, both of their eyes revealing a trace of confusion.
If she hadn’t misheard, it was the voice of Yue Xilou, the Flower Peacock, right?
Why did it sound so furiously thunderous?
Gu Changsheng craned her neck to look in the direction of the sound, only to see a strikingly vibrant figure darting across countless branches and speeding toward them with well-practiced qinggong.
Above the towering ancient trees, amidst the intersecting branches, that figure moved as fleet as smoke, leaving behind a streak of illusory colors.
“What’s going on here?” Gu Changsheng voiced her confusion to Zhou Mu, “Why do I feel like Flower Peacock is in a mood to fight someone to the death?”
He just called for Gu Ze, her little meat bun of a son, didn’t he?
Zhou Mu, with his tall and graceful figure, shook his head.
Hidden behind them, Little Meat Bun tightened his grip on their clothing at the mention of a fight, his little hands unconsciously clenching tighter.
Gu Changsheng had a bad feeling…
But in just a few breaths, the figure of Yue Xilou appeared before them. However, he wasn’t alone; he had someone tucked under his arm.
Gu Changsheng squinted as she looked over, then was taken aback.
The person he was carrying was none other than her runaway maid, the one who threw the blame onto her as the host, Han Qiu.
With a resentful glance at Gu Changsheng, Yue Xilou angrily tossed the unconscious Han Qiu to the side.
Yuan Bao and Dong Lei, with cotton stuffed in their nostrils causing a comical look, reacted swiftly and hurriedly caught Han Qiu just before she hit the ground.
“Gu Ze! Come out to your master now!” Yue Xilou’s voice was as fiery as if he had swallowed hot peppers, barely able to hide his anger.
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng instinctively hid her son further behind her.
Damn, Flower Peacock looks terrifying!
The usually beauty-conscious Yue Xilou now looked completely disheveled, with pearls and jades adorning his hair, true, but with his beaded hairpin crooked, his burst hairpin askew, and his five-colored brocade clothes stained with plenty of dust and mud, clearly not washed for days.
This was definitely not Flower Peacock’s usual manner.
Flower Peacock always made sure to dress impeccably, shining and flawless, and one could tell from the small hand mirror he never parted with just how much he loved beauty!
But at this moment, Flower Peacock didn’t just look less like a peacock in full display, but rather like a drowned chicken!
This… Gu Changsheng’s foreboding feeling intensified.
Especially upon seeing the unconscious Han Qiu…
A very ominous speculation suddenly rose in her heart…
“Gu Ze, will you come out yourself, or shall your master have to drag you out?” Yue Xilou’s intense gaze, burning like fire, fixated on the small patch of clothing that was visible behind the two.
Gu Changsheng exchanged another look with Zhou Mu, both sensing a small head behind them shaking like a rattle-drum.
“Cough cough!” Gu Changsheng fake coughed twice and put on a smiling face to face Yue Xilou, “Ah, Flower Peacock, you’re back. Why do you look so disheveled? Come on, let’s go back and get you cleaned up.”
For Flower Peacock, the opportunity to clean up should be quite a temptation, right? That’s what Gu Changsheng thought.
