Gu Junzhu rubbed the back of his little guy’s head, “We’ll be having breakfast soon!”
“My father is the best, the greatest, and the strongest!” The little guy happily kissed Gu Junzhu’s cheek with all his might.
Soon, five luxury off-road vehicles came to a halt outside the hotel.
Gu Chi bolted into the hotel and quickly arranged the dining procedures.
The hotel only served buffet breakfast, which just so happened to be the two little guys’ favorite.
The hotel’s buffet breakfast came in three levels: high, medium, and low; they chose a high-end luxury meal with few diners and a nice environment.
Once Xiao Shumiao entered the buffet restaurant, his big eyes lit up even more; holding Lingyue’s hand, he felt like a little fish lost in the ocean, weaving through various foods.
Ye Xingbei usually didn’t eat much for breakfast, so she was quickly satisfied. Seeing that Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue had someone to accompany them, she left the buffet restaurant and headed for the restroom.
Halfway back from the restroom, someone called her from behind, “Beibei?”
She instinctively turned around.
Standing behind her was unexpectedly Jee Xiu!
Jee Xiu, with an expression of both surprise and joy, quickly approached Ye Xingbei. “Beibei, it is really you! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me!” “Brother Xiu?” Ye Xingbei was also surprised, “What are you doing here?”
“I am shooting a film nearby and I stayed here last night,” Jee Xiu’s gentle eyes were full of delight. “How about you, Beibei? What brings you here?”
Ye Xingbei said, “I’m taking Xiao Shu to Misty Mountain for fun, we passed by here and decided to stop for a bite.”
Jee Xiu was about to speak, but someone called him from behind, “Xiu!”
Jee Xiu turned his head, frowning involuntarily, “Mother…”
Ho Yiman came to Jee Xiu’s side telling him, “Xiu, Xiaofang is looking for you, you go have a look.”
Jee Xiu frowned, “Mother…”
Ho Yiman cut him off, her brows furrowed even more tightly, her voice cold, “Xiu, don’t make me repeat myself!”
Jee Xiu, already used to his mother’s domineering attitude, helplessly furrowed his brows, telling Ye Xingbei, “Beibei, I have something to deal with, remember to give me a call.”
He was actually hoping to get Ye Xingbei’s number, but Gu Junzhu kept interfering.
Ye Xinglan had already expressed her disapproval of him having too many interactions with Ye Xingbei, so there was no way for him to get Ye Xingbei’s number from Ye Xinglan.
His only hope was for Ye Xingbei to take the initiative and contact him, so he left his business card with Ye Xingbei.
Ye Xingbei nodded with a smile. “Okay, Brother Xiu, take care of your business.”
Jee Xiu gave her a nod, and went back to his room.
After the room door closed, Ho Yiman crossed her arms, gave Ye Xingbei a disinterest inspection, showing contempt in her eyes and said arrogantly, “Ye Xingbei, stop pestering my son! I admit that you are beautiful and talented, but solely based on your unmarried mother status, my family will never accept a woman like you!”
Ye Xingbei was taken aback.
It took her a moment to come back to her senses, then she tried to explain, “Auntie, you’ve misunderstood, I have not been pestering Brother Xiu, I simply brought my son to Misty Mountain and happened to pass by here…”
“Ye Xingbei, don’t try to make excuses!” Ho Yiman sneered with utter contempt, “I’ve been accompanying my son in the entertainment circle for nearly a decade, is there any trick I haven’t seen? A coincidence? Are there that many coincidences in this world? Your lame excuses will only deceive my naive son who has fallen for your beauty!”
Ho Yiman then took a few steps forward.
With her above average height and her ten-plus cm high heels, while Ye Xingbei had only worn flat shoes for the journey, Ho Yiman towered over Ye Xingbei.
