Chapter 1580: Chapter 1585: You’re Sleeping in the Study Room Tonight1
Ye Yingsu let out a soft gasp, her eyes suddenly opening wide. She was panting heavily and sweat was dripping down her forehead. It had been another nightmare.
But today’s dream seemed exceptionally real.
Ye Yingsu clutched her chest tightly. Even after so much time had passed, her chest still hurt terribly.
Upon hearing his mother’s voice, Xiao Yi rushed in to see his mother’s face covered in sweat and tears. He quickly pulled out some tissues to wipe her face.
“Xiao Yi… its just you and me,” Ye Yingsu suddenly embraced her son, holding him tightly in her arms.
Xiao Yi blinked, wrapping his small arms tightly around his mother.
…
At dusk, Gu Qingxin was focused on designing clothes when her phone rang. Without checking the caller ID, she picked up the call.
“Hello?”
“Miss Gu, long time no see.”
Upon hearing this annoying voice, Gu Qingxin was about to hang up, but Long Xuxu quickly said, “Don’t hang up so soon, let me finish.”
“I don’t have time to waste on you.”
“Gu Qingxin, don’t you want to know why Beiming Han likes you?”
“That’s between him and me, none of your business.”
“Because you look a lot like Guan Yue!”
Long Xuxu’s words stopped Gu Qingxin just as she was about to hang up. She scoffed, “Long Xuxu, your attempt at sowing discord is rather low-grade. I don’t look anything like Guan Yue!”
“No similarities? Why don’t you ask others, see if you and Guan Yue look alike. I always wondered how Beiming Han could fall for an insignificant girl like you! Now I finally understand.” Long Xuxu’s voice held a sense of satisfaction.
“Like I’ve said before, take your medication, don’t go around biting people. Rabies is contagious,” Gu Qingxin snapped, hanging up the phone.
Long Xuxu was so angry that she almost smashed her phone. That damned Gu had insulted her again!
Gu Qingxin sketched a few more strokes with her pen before tossing it aside in irritation. She got up and looked at herself in the mirror. Did she look like Guan Yue? Had Long Xuxu developed delusions?
There was absolutely no resemblance at all!
Gu Qingxin shook her head. She had been too bothered by Guan Yue’s presence. How could she possibly believe Long Xuxu’s words?
However, her design inspiration was gone. She washed her hands and left the bedroom. In recent days, Ye Yingsu had suddenly changed. She was no longer spaced out, nor sad. Now she had once again become an expressionless, aloof woman, training Xiao Yi every day.
Xiao Yi seemed to have grown up overnight. Unlike his earlier reluctance, he was now earnestly training himself.
Watching the mother-son pair, Gu Qingxin sighed helplessly. Yingsu had given up hope completely, while Xiao Yi didn’t want to see his mother in pain anymore.
Just as Gu Qingxin was lost in her thoughts, Ye Yingsu waved a hand in front of her face. Gu Qingxin snapped out of it. Yingsu said, “I told Beiming Han that I’m going to be his personal bodyguard. He hasn’t agreed yet, but I told him I would go after a month whether he agrees or not.”
“That’s not what I was thinking about,” Gu Qingxin said.
“Then what were you thinking about?” Ye Yingsu asked her.
“Look at my face…” Gu Qingxin shook her face from side to side.
“You’ve gained weight!”
“Get out…”
“So what were you asking me to look at?” Ye Yingsu crossed her arms, looking at her, perplexed.
“I was asking you … tell me honestly … do I look like Guan Yue, even just a tiny bit?” Gu Qingxin asked, somewhat troubled.
