Chapter 1530: Chapter 1534: But Ye Xingbei Can
“My big brother is doing it for me!” Ye Xingbei lifted her chin proudly, beaming with delight, “My second brother said that my big brother promised to succeed and become my solid support, so no one can bully me!”
Looking at her proud and sweet expression, Gu Junzhu chuckled and ruffled her hair but didn’t tease her as he usually would.
This poor little girl, desperately lacking love, can be exceedingly grateful and happy as long as someone shows her a bit of kindness.
Xie Yunlin and Xie Jinfei cherish her dearly, always keeping her in their thoughts, adding a great deal of happiness to her life.
Although he often complains about Xie Jinfei’s cluelessness, likening him to someone who eats flies without spitting out the wings, whenever they provide Ye Xingbei with more happiness, he silently endures it.
Enduring how that fool would suddenly get touchy-feely with his woman!
The two discussed as they walked home, took a shower, and planned to nap.
Ye Xingbei placed the box with her wedding dress by the bedside, planning to admire it thoroughly for a few days before storing it away.
Gu Junzhu found it amusing, yet her silliness was endearing.
Every move she makes carries an indescribable charm.
In the afternoon, Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue came back home.
The moment the two kids arrived, the courtyard was filled with their carefree and crisp laughter, warming the hearts of those who heard it, and unknowingly uplifting spirits.
In the evening, after taking care of the two children and putting them to sleep, Ye Xingbei returned to the bedroom.
After showering, she lay in bed, engaging in some small talk.
After just a few minutes, Gu Junzhu started becoming physically affectionate, and the two began their shameless nighttime activities.
When it ended, Ye Xingbei was dazed, hugging Gu Junzhu’s neck, having him hold her as she bathed, before returning to bed, snuggling into his arms, and falling asleep.
She had no idea how long she slept before her phone rang.
Startled awake, she opened her eyes and grabbed the phone.
The name displayed on the phone screen was Tang Fan.
He was her second brother’s personal bodyguard.
Her heart skipped a beat with a sense of foreboding, hurriedly answering the call, “Hello?”
“Miss Beibei? This is Xiao Tang,” Tang Fan spoke urgently, “I’m really sorry to disturb you so late at night, Miss Beibei.”
“It’s nothing,” Ye Xingbei responded urgently, “What’s wrong? Is there something with my second brother?”
“Yes… No… I’m not sure if Second Young Master has something or not,” Tang Fan said, “Tonight I accompanied Second Young Master back to the Xiang’s ancestral mansion to visit the old lady. Around seven in the evening, the mansion’s steward called Second Young Master, saying the old lady had fainted. Second Young Master rushed there immediately. After he entered the living room, we were ushered into the side courtyard by the steward. Until now, Second Young Master hasn’t contacted us. I called him several times, but no one answered. I’m really worried, so I went to find Second Young Master; however, the steward said the old lady was feeling unwell and Second Young Master took her back to her bedroom to rest. I have no way to break into the old lady’s bedroom, but without seeing Second Young Master, I can’t feel at ease…”
At this point, his voice became hesitant and tentative, “Miss Beibei, could you possibly come over to the Xiang’s ancestral mansion and have a look?”
As a bodyguard, he absolutely couldn’t intrude on the old lady’s room.
But Ye Xingbei could.
Visiting a grandmother in poor health, with the granddaughter going over, is perfectly reasonable.
“Alright, I understand, I’ll go over immediately.” After hanging up the phone, Ye Xingbei quickly dialed Xie Jinfei’s number.
She called twice; no one answered.
Gu Junzhu sat up, “What’s wrong?”
