Chapter 544: Chapter 547: Fifth Lord Gu is the Bird and She is the Insect
The next day, Ye Xingbei woke up groggily from her bed. Gu Junzhu rubbed her head, “We have a contract signing with the Chi family at ten o’clock, are you coming, Ye Xiaobei?”
Ye Xingbei sat up, “We are signing a contract with the Chi family so soon?”
“Time is money,” He adjusted his cufflinks, bending down, his hands supporting the bed, he kissed Ye Xingbei: “Didn’t Ye Xinglan always say, ‘a mighty dragon can’t crush a snake in its old place’? It doesn’t matter, I will use interests to tie the snake to Gu Group, then we can let that snake charge for us when necessary.”
Country Y is not a particularly wealthy country, at least it pales in comparison to Beijing.
The capital of country Y is not a big cosmopolitan city either. Hence, although Gu Group does have a branch here, it is of limited scale.
The influence of Gu Group in Country Y indeed can’t match up with the Shi or Ye families.
This point greatly displeases him.
Country Y is Ye Xiaobei’s second homeland, they may frequently visit in the future.
He’s used to having everything under his control and dislikes being threatened with “a mighty dragon can’t crush a snake in its old place”.
Since this place is important to Ye Xiaobei, he will cultivate his power here.
Only by being strong here can he defend Ye Xiaobei in this foreign land.
He won’t let the Ye family or the Shi family look down on Ye Xiaobei ever again, there won’t be any opportunity to bully Ye Xiaobei.
He pinched Ye Xingbei’s tender face, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
He kissed her again, “Are you coming? If so, I’ll wait for you.”
Ye Xingbei glanced at the time, “There’s no time, you go yourself, don’t delay official business. Also, I promised Xiao Yue and Xiao Shu yesterday that I would take them around the city.”
“Okay,” Gu Junzhu rubbed her head, “Take a few more bodyguards, and be careful.”
“Don’t worry,” Ye Xingbei said with a sweet smile, “The public security in Country Y is exceptionally good, its low crime rate is internationally recognized, so there won’t be any issues!”
“Good girl!” Gu Junzhu kissed her on the lips, “I’m leaving then, call me if you need anything.”
It was getting late, so Gu Junzhu hurriedly left.
Ye Xingbei got out of bed, washed up and went downstairs.
In the living room, Lingyue and Xiao Shumiao sat on the sofa, Xiao Shumiao was laughing and chat with Lingyue while looking at the computer.
Seeing Xiao Shumiao’s carefree smile, Ye Xingbei felt relaxed and walked over with a smile, “Honey, what are you watching that’s making you so happy?”
“Mom,” Xiao Shumiao looked up at her, calling out excitedly: “I was video calling with Brother Xiao Yue and Lu Maomao!”
“…” Ye Xingbei sat down beside him.
In the computer, the housekeeper of the Gu Family’s mansion in Beijing, was video-calling Xiao Shumiao with Lu Maomao, Black Maomao, and Bai Maomao.
The three plump puppies saw their young master but couldn’t touch him, so they were urgently spinning around.
Xiao Shumiao face was almost glued to the screen, one moment he was telling Lu Maomao to eat more, the next he was telling Black Maomao to be gentler, and not bully Lu Maomao and Bai Maomao.
The three puppy treasures couldn’t touch their little master, their eyes were anxiously watery, it looked as if they were crying, they seemed very pitiful.
Ye Xingbei shook her head with a smile, patting Xiao Shumiao’s head: “Have you had your meal?”
“Mmhm,” Xiao Shumiao nodded, looking up at her with pride, “I ate with daddy! Daddy wakes up the earliest, he asked the kitchen to make us delicious food. Daddy said that he is an early bird catching the worm, and you are a big sloth!”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
The Fifth Lord of Gu is a bird, and she is a worm.
The Fifth Lord of Gu eating her … Yes, that makes sense!
Unconsciously, her thoughts drifted, and she started thinking about the mistake she and the Fifth Lord of Gu made last night in the flower field, gradually, her face flushed red.
She stood up to hide her embarrassment and headed to the dining room: “You guys can play by yourselves for a while, mommy is going to eat, then we will go shopping.”
Xiao Shumiao cheered from behind, “Long live Mommy!”

After Ye Xingbei finished her breakfast, the adult and two children changed their clothes, took Xueno and Yu Nuo, and two bodyguards from the Gu Family, and they departed.
Ye Xingbei took the two little ones to a zoo first, spending over an hour there before it was noontime.
Ye Xingbei took the two little ones into a hotel, planning to eat something and rest for a while before taking them to an amusement park in the afternoon.
This hotel is well-known in Country Y, for its excellent environment and delicious food. Ye Xingbei often came here in the past.
Back then, Xiao Shumiao would barely eat anything.
Revisiting the old place, he can now eat everything with the exception of a few known allergies.
