Chapter 472: Chapter 473: Because You Bring Good Luck to Your Husband
“No need, no need,” Qiao Zui walked in with a mischievous grin, leading Fang Yao to sit across from Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei. He greeted Ye Xingbei, “Hello, little auntie!”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
She felt anything but fine!
She quickly stood up, “I’ll make tea for you!”
She dashed into the kitchen as if fleeing.
Qiao Zui looked at Gu Junzhu with an innocent face, “Don’t blame me, we agreed on fifty minutes, and I came right on time, not a minute more, not a minute less!”
“Why should I blame you? What did you see?” Gu Junzhu picked up his water cup and shot him a cold glance. Every move he made was elegantly picturesque.
Qiao Zui shook his head with a righteous face, “Right, I saw nothing! When I walked in, I just saw my little uncle drinking water alone… Wait, where’s little auntie? How come I don’t see her?”
Fang Yao: “…”
He really wanted to beat this embarrassment to death!
Ye Xingbei quickly brewed tea and brought it over, cut some fruits, and served desserts. She was being exceedingly hospitable.
Qiao Zui loved sweets, and as he ate the delicious dessert he praised, “Little auntie, you are really virtuous, both beautiful and domesticated. Little Uncle, you have a good eye.”
Gu Junzhu gave Ye Xingbei a glance and smiled faintly, “After a whole night, you finally said something sensible.”
Qiao Zui: “…”
He was afraid he could never decently chat with his little uncle in this lifetime.
His little uncle was certainly a conversation terminator!
Only little auntie was nice!
She’s gentle, beautiful, and considerate. And most importantly, she isn’t afraid of little uncle.
A true heroine!
According to his observations, his little uncle had the potential to be a henpecked husband. Therefore, he decided to cling to little auntie whenever he could.
Who knows when little auntie’s thigh might morph into a Golden Cudgel that could shelter him from wind and rain, helping him to escape his little uncle’s reprimands!
It was getting late, the group didn’t chat much. Ye Xingbei asked the housekeeper to show Qiao Zui and Fang Yao to their guest rooms.
The next morning, she got up early to prepare breakfast.
She personally made a few refreshing dishes and cooked fruit porridge.
She noticed that Qiao Zui had a sweet tooth.
The sweet fruit porridge, both Lingyue and her son loved it, and presumably, so would Qiao Zui.
While she was busy in the kitchen, Gu Junzhu greeted her from behind with fresh fragrance after bathing, looping his arms around her waist, with his chin resting on her shoulder, “Baby, what Qiao Zui said is not wrong, you truly are a virtuous woman.”
His lips close to Ye Xingbei’s ear, the warm breath tickling her earlobe.
Ye Xingbei tilted her head a little, “Stop fooling around, I’m busy.”
“I’m not fooling around, I’m comforting my hardworking wife!” Gu Junzhu held her tight, “Baby, do you admire Fang Yao a lot? I’ve never seen you being so cordial with anyone else.”
Even Xie Yunlin, Xie Jinfei, and Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli were never treated this well!
“Yes,” Ye Xingbei said, “Plus, Fang Yao and the others are injured! They got hurt for safeguarding the nation, of course, I should be nicer to them.”
“I also got injured for safeguarding the nation, why haven’t I seen you treat me any better?” The Fifth Lord of Gu felt wronged.
Ye Xingbei looked at him curiously, “Since the day I met you, many people have been telling me that you’re gravely ill. Senior Gu also said you left your previous workplace due to an injury and that you had a hidden injury that could flare up any time, but I’ve never seen any signs of it?”
“That’s because after I married you, it never flared up again,” Gu Junzhu gave her a peck, “That’s why my father said you bring good luck to your husband! See how my father likes you? He listens to everything you say, why? Just because you bring good luck to your husband!”
