Chapter 243: Wife, Children, and a Warm Bed
When Gu Zhaoye pushed the door open, the children were curled up on the small bed in the mini castle like lazy cats, holding their stuffed dolls in their arms, blinking their big eyes, and listening obediently to Jiang Zhiyue's story.
After a while, Jiang Zhiyue's clothes were tugged, and a soft little hand pointed at the door, smiling sweetly and saying, "Sister, brother is here!"
Gu Zhaoye was late in coming in and didn't see Jiang Zhiyue coaxing the children to sleep. As soon as they saw him, the two little babies immediately reached out for hugs and kisses.
If you don’t know, you might think he is the father of the child. It’s quite unbelievable.
His Adam's apple rolled again and again, and his voice was hoarse: "Did they kiss you just now?"
Jiang Zhiyue held the storybook in her hand and turned a page.
Gu Zhaoye moved closer behind her. The breeze lifted the hair on her shoulders. He couldn't help but move closer and sniff greedily.
The scent of milk filled the air, even overshadowing the girl's original body fragrance. Gu Zhaoye curled his lips, pinched Jiang Zhiyue's cheek, and said in an unquestionable and overbearing tone: "No one can kiss here."
Jiang Zhiyue ignored him and continued telling the story in a soft voice.
Gu Zhaoye glanced at the little kid who looked like a good baby, and suddenly laughed, "Why call me brother? Call me dad."
"Good baby, let your mother kiss your father." He stretched out his fingers and pinched the baby's chubby face.
This was too bold. Jiang Zhiyue frowned and looked back at him.
Gu Zhaoye raised his eyebrows, "See, only at times like this will you react."
"Scared? Nervous? Even in front of two kids who know nothing, you don't dare to face me with ease."
"Don't talk nonsense." Jiang Zhiyue said.
Gu Zhaoye didn't care, "Why do you care about me?"
He ordered the babies to call him "Mom", then held them in his arms and kissed them. The two babies were very supportive. They waved their little fists, exerted their strength to suck milk, and called "Mom" softly, each voice sweeter than the last.
Jiang Zhiyue was startled and it was too late to stop it.
"Mom!" The child was playing with the toy puppy in his hands with an innocent smile on his face.
This is Jiang’s child. Mrs. Gu’s maternal family is one of the top ten real estate companies in the world, with extensive overseas operations. The successor to Jiang’s is Gu Zhaoye’s uncle.
Jiang Zhiyue could only correct him. Gu Zhaoye smiled narrowly, lifted the little one on the bed up high with both hands, which made the little kid giggle and call "Daddy" happily.
What a good baby.
Gu Zhaoye's amber eyes were deep and bright, staring at Jiang Zhiyue without any concealment.
He had a perfect bone structure, and the corners of his lips curled up a little bit, and he smiled when he opened his mouth.
Jiang Zhiyue felt a little hot in front of her eyes and avoided his childish smile.
The boy raised his eyelashes slightly and leaned closer to her, their breaths intertwined.
"Don't you like it?"
"Master, you are not a child anymore." Jiang Zhiyue tried hard to hold back her complaints.
Gu Zhaoye leaned down closer, his long eyelashes drooping, almost brushing her cheek. She stepped back, and a big hand clasped her waist, "I like it very much."
"I like it very much." He emphasized.
The boy's handsome thin lips moved closer, his breathing became more and more heated, his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously again and again, and just when his lips were about to touch her tightly pursed red lips, Jiang Zhiyue suddenly turned her head away, and his cool thin lips gently brushed the hair on the side of her face.
Gu Zhaoye clicked his tongue and looked unhappy.
Jiang Zhiyue stuffed the storybook in her hand into his arms, "It seems that the children like you very much. You can coax them well. In the future, can you please not ask me for such trivial matters? I know I can't refuse your request..."
"Then don't refuse." Gu Zhaoye interrupted.
He held the girl's hand on her slender waist and gently rubbed it through the thick clothes. There was a hint of restrained dissatisfaction in his tone, "You know I hate being rejected by you the most, but you always find ways to reject me. I just want to find a chance to be alone with you. I have been studying hard with my father recently."
"It's really hard to study the most annoying things and deal with the most annoying people. I miss you when I'm studying and when I'm upset. It's always hard to see you and it's hard to talk to you..."
Gu Zhaoye didn't know how to describe it. There were too many eyes hiding in the dark in this family. He was obviously the person closest to her. He wanted to smile at her openly and hug her openly, but he had to take some things into consideration.
"I lied to you to coax the child, but I really wanted to see you." Gu Zhaoye only asked: "Next time, will you be fooled again?"
He had a stern face and looked very arrogant.
He looked like he would explode on the spot if Jiang Zhiyue dared to answer him with words he didn't want to hear, and he didn't know what she would do next.
Jiang Zhiyue didn't want to anger him, so she would naturally say what Gu Zhaoye wanted to hear.
The expression on the girl's face was as gentle as ever, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The current Gu Zhaoye was completely different from the wild character in the plot. He had learned to act according to the situation.
The two little kids couldn't understand the adults' conversation. One of them was playing with a puppy on the bed and gradually fell asleep, while the other was held in Gu Zhaoye's arms and fell into a sweet dream under his patting.
Only then did Gu Zhaoye dare to act without any scruples.
Jiang Zhiyue nodded, and Gu Zhaoye couldn't help laughing again. He took out an envelope from his pocket mysteriously and said it was her year-end bonus.
Jiang Zhiyue had a questioning expression on her face.
Gu Zhaoye coughed and explained, "I've been working in my dad's company recently. The old man gave me a salary, and with my pocket money, it's rounded up."
The envelope was very thin and contained a bank card. His bank statements were all recorded in Mrs. Gu's accounting system. Jiang Zhiyue shook his head and pushed the envelope back.
Gu Zhaoye forcefully pushed the envelope over. "The bank card is in your name, and all the money is in cash. No one will find out."
"I should give you a reward anyway. You rushed to protect me when I was in the most dangerous moment. This is what you deserve. You have to learn to accept what you have won."
Jiang Zhiyue nodded and stopped refusing, and asked about the injury on his arm.
Gu Zhaoye's eyes lit up, he looked at her and smiled, "It's just a minor injury, it's nothing."
The boy leaned over, rested his head on her shoulder, and mysteriously took out an exquisite jewelry box from his pocket, claiming that it was a holiday gift for her.
Jiang Zhiyue was not interested and pushed his head away.
Gu Zhaoye came closer again and urged her to open it quickly in a bad mood.
Seeing that she was still unwilling, he simply opened the jewelry box himself and put the bright and sparkling diamond ring inside firmly on the girl's ring finger.
Jiang Zhiyue was stunned.
The boy's eyes were obscured by his hair, and his voice was hoarse and awkward, "I will not get engaged, nor will I let anyone be my fiancée."
