Chapter 1125: Chapter 1209: Time is Peaceful, Years are Tranquil

She is the distinguished Young Lady of the Xie family, isn’t she?

Her veins flow with the noble blood of the Xie family.

She should have been high above, glory unlimited.

How did her life come to this?

She collapsed on the ground, wishing this was all a dream.

After waking from the dream, she would still be the Young Lady of the Xie family, all commands followed, dressed in luxurious silk…

*

At the Gu family’s large courtyard.

When Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei returned home, it was already late.

The Senior Master and the two children had gone to bed.

They first went to the children’s rooms to check on them.

The children were sleeping soundly.

Lingyue was still sleeping rigidly straight, while Xiao Shumiao was still mischievously resting a leg on Lingyue.

Ye Xingbei chuckled and leaned down to kiss Xiao Shumiao and moved her back to the pillow.

She looked down at Xiao Shumiao for a long time, then turned off the light and reluctantly left the children’s room with Gu Junzhu.

After closing the door, she sighed somewhat sadly, “Xiao Shu used to need to hold my hand to fall asleep. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Shu has grown up, and now he can sleep soundly even when I’m not around.”

Gu Junzhu wrapped his arm around her shoulders, pulling her into his embrace, “Haven’t I told you? After children grow up, they fly away like little birds. Only your life partner will stay with you forever! So you don’t have to feel sad about this. As long as he can grow up healthy and happy, that is our greatest fortune.”

“Yes!” Ye Xingbei smiled, snuggled into his embrace, and teased, “As long as I don’t raise Xiao Shu to be like my uncle or like Xie Motong, I’ll be thankful to heaven!”

“That wish of yours is quite easy to fulfill,” the two walked to the bedroom door, Gu Junzhu opened it, led her inside, closed the door, and pressed her against it, kissing her lips, “With our abilities, not to mention raising one Xiao Shu, even raising ten or eight, we surely won’t raise an idiotic fool like Xie Wenhui or a despicable villain like Xie Motong.”

Ye Xingbei was silenced by the kiss.

Gu Junzhu kissed her for a moment and then carried her into the bathroom.

Though they had been intimate before, Ye Xingbei still found it hard to accept bathing together.

She chuckled and struggled, hitting Gu Junzhu’s shoulder, “Go out, go out, I don’t want to bathe with you!”

“Together, together!” Gu Junzhu put her in the bathtub and kissed her closely, “There have been too many unhappy things recently, I urgently need your comfort.”

Ultimately, Ye Xingbei lacked his strength, and indeed his words tugged at her heartstrings, so she finally gave in to his wish, and they battled fervently in the bathroom.

After the bath, feeling refreshed, they returned to the bedroom and lay on the pillow. Ye Xingbei nearly instantly fell into a deep sleep.

Before falling asleep, she thought groggily that being tired out by the Fifth Lord of Gu was indeed a good sleep inducer.

Just as Gu Junzhu had said, several disappointing things had happened over the last few days.

She should have been restless and unable to sleep.

But now, what is an inability to sleep?

Is it just hitting the pillow and sleeping well?

She slept soundly until morning.

When Ye Xingbei woke up, Gu Junzhu was no longer by her side.

After washing up and changing her clothes, she went downstairs, where no one was in the living room.

She went to the backyard familiarly; there the whole family was exercising.

Gu Junzhu was sparring with Senior Master Gu.

Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue were practicing martial arts with Uncle Yanbing.

The yard was rich with the fragrance of flowers, the chirping of birds, and the air was fresh, making it delightfully peaceful.

Ye Xingbei couldn’t help but exhale deeply, her lips curving into a smile.

At such times, she felt a sense of peace and tranquility, as if everything around her had slowed down.

The wind was gentle, and the clouds were light.

Seeing her coming over, Senior Master Gu stopped his movements and looked at her with a smile, “Is Beibei up?”

“Yes,” Ye Xingbei called him dad, “Good morning.”

“Good morning,” Senior Master Gu said happily, “Let’s go, it’s time to eat. After eating, you guys help Xiao Qiao and Xiao Mi prepare; today they are getting engaged!”

Joy was evident in people on happy occasions.

The Senior Master was spirited and vibrant, his eyes even brighter than usual, showing how much he valued and looked forward to this day.

“Okay, dad.” Ye Xingbei obediently responded.

Gu Junzhu also said, “Dad, don’t worry, everything is ready.”

“Yes, I trust you,” Senior Master patted his shoulder, turned around, and called out to Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue, “Xiao Shu, Xiao Yue, let’s go eat!”

“Here!” Xiao Shumiao responded crisply, running over, and collided with Ye Xingbei, climbing up her with hands and feet.

Ye Xingbei chuckled and bent down to pick him up, kissing his rosy cheeks, “Martial arts really work, Xiao Shu’s complexion has much improved.”

“That’s a must!” Xiao Shumiao patted his little chest proudly, “Mom, I’m now very powerful, I can do a whole set of boxing! Wait, mom, I’ll be as powerful as Uncle Yanbing and protect you!”

“That great?” Ye Xingbei smiled and kissed him again, “Our little Xiao Shu is amazing!”

“Uncle Yanbing is really amazing,” the little guy pointed at a large tree in the yard, “Uncle Yanbing touched that big tree and whoosh, climbed up it faster than a monkey!”

Uncle Yanbing, following behind them, twitched the corners of his mouth.
