Chapter 110 Baby
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
The one who couldn't sleep was naturally a certain young master surnamed Gu.
Now, not abroad, nor when they first returned to China, ever since he moved into Xingheli, no matter how busy he is during the day or how late he comes home at night, the two of them sleep in the same bed every night, even in the sweltering summer heat—if it's too hot, they just turn the air conditioning down a bit.
From the day he took Lu Fengqing to the Xie residence, there was one less person beside him in bed.
At his age, when he's full of energy, he can tolerate not being able to sleep with someone when they're not around, but the fact that he can't even sleep with them when they're clearly back is something the young master finds hard to accept.
For a fleeting moment, he even considered ignoring everything and going back to his apartment.
But that won't work.
Even if I succeed in embracing her tonight, that woman will still be angry tomorrow, and might even run away again in a fit of rage.
He couldn't actually break her legs and handcuff her to the bed.
"It's okay if you can't say it now. Try to overcome it as soon as possible, and don't wait until you're not familiar with each other before you speak up."
Huo Huai'an's words echoed in his ears.
Try to overcome it...
To be honest, it's a bit difficult to overcome.
For him, doing is harder than saying.
The young master closed his eyes tightly and picked up his phone.

Lu Fengqing is having a video call with Ruirui Tong.
In the video, Rui Rui is wearing a frog-themed onesie and sitting cross-legged on the bed. She looks like a tiny, adorable little bundle.
"Potatoes, fish, chicken wings, radishes, tofu..." Rui Rui counted on her fingers as she told Lu Fengqing what dishes she had eaten today.
Lu Fengqing was listening attentively and ignored the message sent by Gu Suixing.
After Rui Rui finished counting, Lu Fengqing said, "Rui Rui can't be a picky eater. She needs to eat more meat to grow tall."
Unlike other children, Rui Rui prefers to eat vegetables but doesn't like to eat meat. She only eats when her elders are watching her.
Rui Rui usually listens to Lu Feng Qing, especially when she can't see her and misses her a lot. "Okay."
Lu Fengqing thought of the sweet words she hadn't heard from that scoundrel during the day, and a thought struck her. She began to coax the child, "Auntie is in a bad mood. Rui Rui, can you comfort Auntie?"
When Rui Rui heard that her aunt was in a bad mood, she immediately frowned, her little expression showing both heartache and worry.
Upon seeing this, Lu Fengqing immediately regretted it and quickly said, "Auntie just wanted Rui Rui to comfort her, and she'll feel better right away after hearing it."
Rui Rui's brows relaxed, and she looked at Lu Fengqing with a puzzled expression. After thinking for a moment, she said in a soft, sweet voice, "Auntie, be happy, don't be sad."
"Rui Rui grows up, protects, Auntie, little fairy."
"Rui Rui, make money for your aunt."
"Auntie, I love you."
"Hug me, kiss me."
As the little guy spoke, he made a hugging gesture towards the camera and even leaned in for a kiss.
Lu Fengqing's eyes welled up, and she almost burst into tears.
What an angel on earth!
Not only do they have to grow up to protect their aunt, but they also have to earn money for their aunt.
I really want to record this and let some jerk hear it!
Lu Fengqing wished she could reach into the screen, pull her precious item out, and give it a big kiss.
Lu Fengqing gripped the blanket tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Rui Rui, Auntie loves you too."
The little guy gave a shy "hmm".
Lu Fengqing then said, "You don't need your father anymore, how about you become your aunt's son?"
The little guy frowned again, a conflicted expression on his face.
It's like she's torn between wanting her dad or her aunt.
Lu Fengqing felt a pang of sadness and gave a self-deprecating laugh to herself.
In Rui Rui's heart, his older brother is his father.
Even if a father doesn't care about you, he's still your father.
Lu Fengqing forced a smile back onto her face, suppressing her sadness, and changed the subject: "In another month, Rui Rui will be able to see her aunt. Aunt bought Rui Rui lots of cute clothes, and Rui Rui can wear them to show her when she comes back."
Rui Rui nodded happily, "Mmm."
A gentle female voice came from the other end of the video call, seemingly urging Rui Rui to go to sleep.
Lu Fengqing glanced at the time and realized it was already nine o'clock.
Children are different from adults; they should go to bed earlier.
Looking at Rui Rui's fair and pretty face, Lu Fengqing felt a little reluctant, but still coaxed Rui Rui to hang up the phone.
When I don't want to think about it, it's fine, but once I do, I feel a nagging, unbearable ache in my heart.
I'm really in a bad mood now.
Lu Fengqing sat on the bed for a long time until her emotions calmed down. She shook her head vigorously, turned on her phone again, and tried to distract herself.
Open the chat window of a philanthropist.
[Philanthropist: Baby]
"..."
That scoundrel wouldn't call me that for no reason.
Lu Fengqing frowned warily and replied: [Wrong message?]
[Philanthropist: No mistake, it's this precious little treasure]
His typing is quite flirtatious; I wonder if his mouth is just as flirtatious.
Lu Fengqing snorted and made a phone call immediately.
Once the call connected, he immediately said, "Repeat what you just said."
A philanthropist: "..."
Lu Fengqing deliberately asked, "Where is he? Is he asleep? Why isn't he making a sound?"
Gu Suixing: "You really want to hear it?"
"Nonsense." Lu Fengqing was in a bad mood, and her tone was also unpleasant: "If you don't tell me, I'm hanging up."
There was no response from the other end of the phone.
A surge of anger rose in Lu Fengqing's heart.
Damn it, is it so hard to say something nice?!
She's not as important as his pride, is she?
Even a scumbag can say sweet things to coax someone, but this dog of a man can't even...
"Baby, don't hang up."
A deep, magnetic male voice suddenly came from the receiver.
This bastard...
Lu Fengqing's mind went blank.
What was it again?
A sudden tingling and itchy sensation rose in her ears, and Lu Fengqing trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
Everything in the world seemed to quiet down.
Lu Fengqing didn't speak, but two blushes appeared on her cheeks, the color spreading outwards.
Under the same night sky, in another apartment building, the man sitting on the bay window of his bedroom wasn't much better off.
Beneath her short, wispy hair, her fair ears were flushed and hot.
