Chapter 54 Assists
"Your mother is beautiful."
"Is she as pretty as my aunt?"
"..They are beautiful in different ways. Your mother looks a lot like me."
Su Hang lowered his eyes in disappointment.
"So he looks like my uncle..."
What does this disappointed look mean? Gu Xiyue was speechless.
"I hope Xiaoxi and his friends will look like my aunt in the future."
Gu Xiyue: Thank you, there is no need to say this.
This child has also changed a bit. Although he still doesn't talk much, there is a shadow of Zhou Nuan in his words and deeds. It is true that birds of a feather flock together.
It's fine if the girl doesn't look like him, but for boys...
"Isn't it good to be like me?"
Su Hang raised his eyes to look at him, then quickly looked away, acting as if nothing had happened.
“…”
He still couldn't bear it, so he comforted her, "Uncle, I'm not saying you're not good-looking, but your face looks like you don't want anyone to get close to you. I'm afraid girls won't dare to get close to Xiaodong in the future."
As an eight-year-old child, his thoughts are too mature and his vocabulary is too rich. Can an eight-year-old child say the phrase "Strange people stay away"? It sounds like something Nuan would say.
Gu Xiyue suddenly missed the timid little Su Hang.
"Uncle," Su Hang moved closer to him, "Aunt is a noble person in our family. You must not lose her and make her unhappy."
This little devil...
"I didn't upset her."
"Really? Then why were you kicked out?"
He didn't know why he was kicked out, but he couldn't admit the fact that he was kicked out in front of a little kid.
Gu Xiyue said with a straight face, "Uncle was not kicked out, it was your aunt who wanted to change clothes, so I stepped aside for a while."
Su Hang's eyes widened. "Why did you avoid me when my aunt was changing clothes? Aren't you a couple?"
Gu Xiyue finally reacted: ... It seems to be the case.
Su Hang looked at his uncle's expression of sudden enlightenment and felt extremely worried. Without him, this family would have to fall apart.
"Uncle, you are so useless! Come in quickly, maybe aunt needs your help."
As they were talking, Xiaoxi's grunts were heard from the master bedroom, and then Zhou Nuan's voice followed, "Mom, mom, come here."
Su Hang pushed his uncle and said, "Go quickly, your aunt is calling you."
Gu Xiyue swallowed back the words "It's not me you're calling" and walked inside under Su Hang's scorching gaze.
When he opened the door, he did not see that graceful figure. The magnolia-colored cheongsam she had just worn was scattered on the ground, and on top of the cheongsam, there was a flesh-colored underwear.
Gu Xiyue: . . .
I raised my head and looked towards the bathroom in the master bedroom. Sure enough, I saw that the bathroom door was half closed, with only a small gap open, and a wet little face poked out.
Zhou Nuan didn't expect that she called Qin Yuezhi but called Gu Xiyue in instead. When she saw his eyes sweeping over the underwear she took off, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
"Where's Mom?"
"Mom is asleep."
"Oh..." She held the door tightly, "It's too hot, I want to take a shower, it seems the child is awake, take a look."
Gu Xiyue turned around and saw that Xiaoxi had indeed woken up. She was looking around with her round eyes open. Perhaps she heard her mother's voice, so she didn't cry.
The noise just now also woke up her brother, and the brother and sister stared at him.
When he looked back, the bathroom door had been tightly shut. Holding a child in one hand, he walked out of the living room.
Su Hang came over when he saw this. "Why is uncle out? Where's aunt?"
"Your aunt is taking a bath."
"Oh, just leave Xiaodong and Xiaoxi to me, uncle, you go in."
Gu Xiyue frowned and was about to refuse when Qin Yuezhi came out of the room. She was a light sleeper and was woken up by Zhou Nuan's shout.
She wanted her son and daughter-in-law to be well, so how could she miss the opportunity? She took the children from Gu Xiyue without saying anything, "Yes, yes, just leave the children to us, you go in quickly."
As he said that, he pushed Gu Xiyue to the master bedroom, and added, "No need to prepare dinner, we are not hungry, and you'd better not come out."
Gu Xiyue was pushed back into the bedroom and looked at the door that was ruthlessly closed in silence. He had no choice but to sit down at his desk and look at the documents.
The sound of water coming from the bathroom made it difficult for him to concentrate. He appeared calm on the surface, but his mind was still unable to focus on the documents, and he never turned over the page he had opened.
I don’t know how long it took, the sound of water stopped, and then the bathroom door was opened, and Zhou Nuan walked out with wet hair and water vapor.
Perhaps she didn't expect that he was still in the room. She paused, and a trace of discomfort flashed across her little face, which was red from the heat.
She quickly picked up her scattered clothes on the floor, calmly hid her underwear, and then asked nonchalantly, "Where are the children?"
"Mom took her away."
There seemed to be a faint aroma of alcohol in the air. Gu Xiyue frowned slightly and looked at her face with an unnatural blush. "Have you been drinking?"
"Uh, I just drank a little." Zhou Nuan's tone was unnatural.
She just saw a bottle of rice wine in the house. She liked to have a drink, and she hadn't had one for a long time, so she couldn't help but secretly took a few sips.
Unexpectedly, this wine looked ordinary but was actually very pure. In addition, this body was not able to tolerate alcohol and she felt a little dizzy now. Fortunately, she did not drink too much, otherwise she would definitely not be able to get up now.
"It's okay. I'll be fine in a minute. You read first. I'll go see if the kids are hungry."
She raised her leg and was about to walk out of the house. Just after she took two steps, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a big hand.
She turned around in surprise and met Gu Xiyue's eyes. His pupils were dark, and there was an emotion in them that she couldn't understand.
The two looked at each other.
After a long while, Gu Xiyue finally spoke in a hoarse voice, "Your hair is wet, be careful not to catch a cold."
He pulled her to sit down beside the bed and, like a magic trick, showed her an old-fashioned hair dryer. Fearing that she had never seen one before and would be scared, he explained, "This is a hair dryer. It's used to dry hair. You haven't seen one before."
Zhou Nuan really wanted to say that she had not only seen hair dryers, but she also had several hair dryers with negative ions and nano water ions at home, waiting in line for her favor.
However, this old model of hair dryer is the first time I have seen it. It has strong wind and loud noise.
Gu Xiyue stood beside her, blowing her hair patiently. His movements were very gentle, though his technique was a little unfamiliar.
The big hands kept moving through her hair. The wind was hot, the palms were hot, and even her face was hot.
Fortunately, the sound was loud enough to cover up her pounding heart.
She might really be drunk, otherwise why would her heart be beating so fast?
The atmosphere was inexplicably harmonious. The little woman below him lowered her head obediently and let him play with her hair. The half of her face that was exposed was fair and she looked well-behaved.
It was just like what he had dreamt before, but now, it was not a dream.
