His excited little face glowed, his eyes sparkling with joy. Just one look at him was enough to tell that he was in a state of intense happiness and excitement.
Seeing the child’s happiness made Ye Xingbei happy too. Observing his beautiful face full of joy made him bloom with happiness, to the extent he could slightly ignore the glaring bloodstains on his cheeks.
On the way, everyone chatted and laughed without letting the injuries of the two little ones affect their mood.
After arriving back at the Gu family’s villa, Gu Junzhu took the two little ones to take a bath.
Gu Qingrun was also called over.
After bathing, the two little ones needed to have their medicine reapplied.
The Gu family’s wound medicine is so effective that it is unaffordable for outsiders.
Ye Xingbei briefly washed and changed clothes then headed straight into the kitchen.
She was full of determination to feed Lingyue and her son till they became chubby kids in the shortest time possible.
Even if they weren’t chubby, she wanted them to be as tall as other kids their age at least.
Her five-year-old son looked like a three or four-year-old.
Lingyue was eight, but doctors said he suffered from severe malnutrition and anemia, and his average height was only that of a six-year-old.
Her son was short because he had been sick often since childhood, and because of his asthma, she dared not let him eat just anything.
Lingyue’s short height, was likely due to his stepmother’s negligence.
Now, apart from a few known foods her son could not eat, he could eat anything else.
Lingyue, now at her house, could also eat to his fill.
Children grow fast.
She believed with her dedicated nurturing, both children would grow up healthy and robust, just like her son’s nickname suggests.
There were no clothes suitable for Lingyue at home. Gu Junzhu temporarily sent someone to buy a few for him. They weren’t a perfect fit, but they looked much better than his loose uniform.
People value appearance, and Lingyue, dressed in new clothes, became even more handsome.
Even Xiao Shumiao was gazing in awe, “Brother Xiaoyue is so handsome, even more than the most beautiful girl in class!”
Junzhu was amused by him and pinched his little face, “You know what beauty is?”
“Of course!” The little one put on a serious face, saying, “Mum is the most beautiful! The most beautiful in the world! Dad is the second most beautiful, Brother Xiaoyue is the third most beautiful!”
Gu Junzhu:
This was his way of indicating his favorite, right?
No matter how much the little guy liked his stepfather, he could never surpass Ye Xiaobei.
However, he should be content. He ranked second!
Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli were not even mentioned!
If Ye Xingli knew that in his adorable nephew’s heart, even Lingyue eclipsed him and dropped to fourth, fifth, or sixth place, Ye Xingli would probably start crying.
Gu Junzhu was quite satisfied, picked up the little guy, squeezed his soft cheek, and smooched him hard, “Honey, let’s go eat!”
The little one chuckled, raised his small arm and cheered, “Let’s go find Mum!”
Lingyue watched in envy as the two laughed and chatted happily, following them silently.
The little one, leaning on Gu Junzhu’s shoulder, waved at him, “Brother Xiaoyue, come on, let’s go eat something yummy! We have lots of delicious food!”
The little one’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Lingyue unwittingly curved his lips into a smile, quickening his steps..
