Madam Xing truly regarded Ji Zhinan as her daughter. Knowing that something like this had happened to her, she was worried and couldn't help but be a little angry.
This child always reports good news and hides the bad.
Xing Minggao frowned, a rare occurrence for him: "Your aunt is worried about you."
"I know."
Fortunately, Ji Zhinan was not seriously injured, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Today, Jiujin Platinum Palace was exceptionally lively, with the dining tables full. In addition to the Gu, Luo, and Warrens families, the Xing family, Qin Yu's family, and Lin Que were also present.
It's rare to have so many people gathered together, and we had a particularly enjoyable meal.
After finishing their meal, Mr. and Mrs. Xing Minggao sat together and chatted for a while before preparing to go home.
"It's getting late, let's head back."
Luo Ling nodded slightly: "Be careful on the road."
After saying goodbye, Madam Xing looked at her daughter, who had no intention of leaving with them, and asked, "Xiao Fei?"
"Huh?" Xing Fei looked up.
"You silly child, you'll have plenty of time to talk to Nan Nan later. Why aren't you home yet?"
“I…” Xing Fei choked: “My school…”
"Didn't you say you'd finished everything at school?"
"..." She seems to have said that.
Seeing that her daughter's expression was a little off, Madam Xing asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"No!" Xing Fei quickly shook her head: "I mean, my clothes are still at school, so I'll go back to school today and collect my things from school tomorrow before going home."
"It's so late now, let your dad drive us to the school to collect it later."
“…No need.” Xing Fei quickly stood up. Seeing that her parents were looking at her, she stood up and said, “Let’s leave it at school. I’ll pack it up when I have time. Mom and Dad, let’s go home.”
Xing Minggao and his wife looked at each other, not knowing why, but they felt that something was wrong with their daughter, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.
However, since their daughter had said so, they didn't think much of it and looked at Ji Zhinan: "Nannan, we'll head back now."
"Okay." Ji Zhinan stood up: "Goodbye, Uncle and Aunt, Xiaofei."
"Um."
After the servants saw the Xing family of three off, Ji Zhinan calmly turned his gaze to a certain spot.
Gu Yibei, Qin Yu, and Lin Que were talking on the side. Although the living room was large, they could still hear the Xing couple saying goodbye.
Lin Que stared at the doorway, watching Xing Fei leave.
When he pulled his head back, he met Ji Zhinan's ambiguous smile. He was startled and immediately turned his head away from her.
Damn, what kind of look is that!
It was indeed getting late, and soon Qin Yu's family and Lin Que left one after another.
After seeing the guests off, Ji Zhinan went upstairs to rest.
Since becoming pregnant, she has been sleeping more and more, and she is extremely sleepy before 10 p.m. every day.
When Gu Yibei came out after taking a shower, he saw that she was still looking at documents. He glanced at the time next to her, walked over, and habitually lay down on her stomach to listen to her every day.
Aren't you sleepy today?
She would normally be asleep by this time.
"It's alright." Ji Zhinan couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of something.
The man raised his eyebrows and saw the girl's smiling eyes, so he smiled too: "What's making you so happy?"
"Yi Bei".
"Um?"
"I've discovered that being 'idiot' isn't just about being idiotic."
Gently stroking her belly, the man casually replied, "Yeah, he's still a fool, a complete idiot no matter what."
Lin Que's "foolish" image in Gu Yibei's mind had long been deeply ingrained.
