Chapter 1024: Baby~ I was wrong~

Knowing that Gu Le and Chu Yan had returned, Grandma Gu and the others quietly left the audience seats after watching the program they had been looking forward to.

Fortunately, it was nearing its end, and the important figures had all left ahead of time, so there was nothing unusual about their departure.

After returning home, another night of rain and whispers began in the same bed.

The joy that followed came to an abrupt end when he learned that Chu Yan would be leaving the next night.

"So, you can only come back for one day? Not even two more days? We can go together then."

Gu Qinglang felt that time was too rushed. Since they were already back, staying a couple more days wouldn't hurt.

Chu Yan explained again, "I came back secretly. Now is a crucial moment in the election, and I don't have much freedom around me. The longer I stay out here, the more dangerous it becomes."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qinglang said worriedly, "Then you should go back early tomorrow, or go back tonight? Safety first!"

Chu Yan: "......" No, father-in-law, I'm already back, and you're not going to let me chat with my wife for a bit before kicking me out?

Li Mengxin, who was standing next to Gu Qinglang, patted him on the shoulder speechlessly: "Then you and Ale should leave tonight too."

"No way! I haven't seen you for a year, I'm not leaving!"

Li Mengxin rolled her eyes: "You know this all too well!"

Gu Qinglang snapped out of his daze, glanced at Chu Yan, then at his own daughter. Okay, he misspoke.

"Well then, let's leave tomorrow."

Everyone: "......"

After the New Year, everyone was tired.

Gu Yin looked at Chu Yan: "Where are you staying tonight?"

Chu Yan checked the time: "Here, can you get my pajamas and stuff out for me? I'm going home to talk to them."

"Okay, go ahead."

The Chu family had barely entered the door when Chu Yan arrived.

The old woman exclaimed anxiously, "What are you doing here? Go back!"

Chu Yan: "...No, Grandma, isn't this my home? I can't even go home?"

"It's only for one day. You and Ayin should just stay here and watch us. We've been watching you for over twenty years, we're sick of it! Go back now!! We'll be happy as long as you and Ayin are doing well!"

Chu Yan sighed helplessly, "I miss not only Ayin, but also you all. Let's chat for a while, then I'll go over there to rest later, Grandma."

"Let's go to the study to talk then, let's go," said Old Master Chu, and the old lady stopped talking.

Family-oriented.

Chu Yan used to have his own room here. Gu Yin took out his clothes, but after thinking about it, she took them to her own room instead.

Anyway, they're a married couple, so it's normal for them to sleep together.

I ran into Li Mengxin as soon as I stepped outside.

Li Mengxin was coming from the front yard.

"mom."

"Ayan went back over there? Why didn't you go with her?"

Gu Yin held up the pajamas in her hand: "He's going to chat for a while, he'll be back in a bit."

Li Mengxin nodded: "It's only natural. The family hasn't seen each other for so long. Alright, it's freezing cold, you should go inside now, don't rush him."

"I know."

After Li Mengxin left, Gu Yin went into the house.

I want to sleep but I'm not sleepy, so I get up to read for a while, but I can't concentrate.

Gu Yin got up, walked to the mirror, and looked at her skin.

"Oh my, you have this side to you! What, are you afraid that you're not pretty enough and Chu Yan will dislike you?"

Gu Yin ignored 001, looked at her still fair and youthful skin in the mirror, and then at her dark and sparkling eyes, and felt at ease.

"It's normal for a woman to dress up for the man she loves, and it's also normal for a long absence to make a new marriage. But it's a miracle that I've lived two lives and gone through so much, and I still have this girlish mentality."

As she was talking, she picked up her lipstick, applied a little, thought for a moment, then took her finger, dipped it in the lipstick, and rubbed it on her cheeks a few times.

"Hmm, not bad, she looks a little shy."

001: "...I can't bear to look!" After saying that, he turned around and entered the system space.

Gu Yin ignored it, finished her work, returned to her desk, and started reading again.

Chu Yan returned at around 2 a.m.

He wasn't surprised to see that Gu Yin was still waiting for him.

"You're back?"

Chu Yan nodded: "Have you been waiting long?"

Gu Yin shook her head and put down her book: "I'll just take a look at the information."

"I'm going to take a shower."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yin handed over a nightgown.

001 doesn't understand. How can he be so calm? Is this normal? Is this a normal person?

One didn't say why they weren't asleep yet, and the other didn't say why it took them so long to reply.

He knew she would wait for him, and he wanted her to wait for him too.

She knew he would come back, and she knew he wouldn't keep her waiting too long.

They both know that the other understands them, so there's no need to say certain things.

When Chu Yan came out after taking a shower, he saw that Gu Yin was already lying down.

He went to the bathroom to dry his hair, leaving only the light on by the window. He walked to the bedside and quietly looked at the person on the bed.

He thinks about this scene every day, every single day, both in his dreams and in his sleep. They say that what you think about during the day, you dream about at night, but Gu Yin rarely appears in his dreams. When he does dream about her, he doesn't want to wake up.

The person was right in front of him, and he was afraid it was all a dream. When he woke up, he would find himself alone on the cold, empty bed.

Gu Yin hadn't fallen asleep at all; she knew the moment Chu Yan stood in front of the bed.

Ten minutes passed, and the person stood motionless in front of the bed. What did that mean?

Just as she was about to open her eyes and get up, the other person moved.

In the dimly lit room, Gu Yin opened her eyes and saw him carefully get into bed, lie down, turn her over, and hold her in his arms, remaining still.

...It stopped moving...

Is this how a human being does things?

Gu Yin: "...Hehehe!!"

People can actually laugh when they're angry!

"Tell me, have you been doing something bad outside? Otherwise, why are you so quiet? This isn't like him!"

"Pfft! Haha, I thought you could hold out for a long time. What nonsense are you talking about? You'll know if you try it yourself and see."

Looking at the other person's expression, Gu Yin was furious: "...Go sleep on the sofa."

The laughter stopped abruptly.

"I was wrong, Ah Yin, I was wrong, wife, I was really wrong, baby, I was wrong, please don't ignore me, wife~~"

Gu Yin could barely suppress the smile on her face. She was aloof and dignified in front of outsiders, gentle and refined in front of her family, and would occasionally act silly in front of him, but this was the first time she had ever acted like this!

The contrast is too striking!

"Honey~ I was so wrong~ Please talk to me~ Don't ignore me~"

"Cough, where did I go wrong?" Gu Yin forced a smile.

"The mistake was leaving the meat uneaten..."

Before Gu Yin could react, she felt a sudden weight on her body, a burning and painful sensation on her lips, and her muffled groan was completely swallowed up.

The bed curtains swayed gently, the quilt billowed red, and the night went on.

The next morning, the old lady started helping to distribute gifts so that people could take them to pay New Year's visits.

In the end, only the two elderly people and Gu Le were left at home.

People from the Chu family also came over.

"Ah Le, this is a red envelope. May you have a peaceful and happy New Year!" Old Master Chu handed a huge red envelope to Gu Le.

Gu Le grinned as she took it: "Wow! It's so thick! I love it, thank you Grandpa Chu!!"

"This is from Grandma Chu!"

"This is from your aunt and me. Study hard and come back to China soon."

Gu Le grinned as she accepted the red envelopes one by one: "Thank you, Grandma! Thank you, Uncle and Aunt! Oh my, today is so happy!! I received so many red envelopes this morning! I'm just waiting for my sister and brother-in-law's!"

"They're not up yet. Some people might come over to wish us a Happy New Year later. Would you like to receive them?"

The adults in the family have all gone out, and the two elders don't know anyone. Gu Le has learned so much; he should be able to stand on his own now.

Gu Le thought it was something serious: "Great, Grandma! If there are any people I don't know, just introduce them to me!"

As a result, no one came to wish them a Happy New Year until after 10 o'clock. The Gu family members did not think anything of it, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.

When Gu Yin opened her eyes, the room was already brightly lit.

I reached out and touched it, and just as I picked up the phone, it fell to the table with a thud.

"What's wrong? Are you awake?"

Gu Yin looked at her still trembling hands: "..."
