Gu Xiaotian opened her big eyes and rushed over, burying her head in his arms and acting coquettishly, "Mommy, I want Daddy to come with me."
This made Gu Anran realize something was wrong. She turned to look at Ye Lichuan, who waved his hand to indicate that he knew nothing. In reality, he was planning to buy another set of physics test papers for Xiaotian as a reward.
Gu Anran found Xiao Tian's actions very agreeable, but Ye Lichuan, who was tied up with work, shouldn't have chosen to go abroad with them at this time. As the company's president, he had to be responsible for his employees.
"I will handle the work-related issues."
Gu Xiaotian held up a finger, "I'll vouch for my dad." After saying that, he lowered his eyes again, "I also hope my dad can be by my side during the competition."
Gu Anran almost agreed to those words, but reason held her back. She ruffled Xiaotian's fluffy hair and said, "I'll think about it. You should go and get some rest."
Ye Lichuan's pupils contracted, knowing that success was not far away. Gu Xiaotian looked at him, then tiptoed and kissed Gu Anran before leaving.
After Gu Xiaotian left, she slammed the door shut and looked at the man who was pretending to be calm. How could this man be so childish as to ask his son for help?
"I will not agree." After saying that, she pulled the blanket over herself and refused to listen to Ye Lichuan.
"We all know why Xiaotian chose to compete abroad, and as her father, I can do a good job of guiding her and helping her get out of her depressed mood."
Seeing the blanket shift slightly, Ye Lichuan pressed on, listing all the benefits of his visit, and finally said, "How could I not be where my darling is?"
Gu Anran's eyes were full of disgust. He leaned over and kissed her forehead, repeatedly assuring her that he would handle the work matters well.
Thinking of Xiaotian's words earlier that he wanted his father to be with him, Gu Anran sighed. Xiaotian had been by her side since birth. As a single-parent family, he lacked fatherly love. Now that he had a father, it was normal for him to want more companionship. Maybe she should just let him go.
"I've also experienced heartbreak, so I have a lot to say about this, and I can offer some advice to Xiaotian."
Gu Anran abruptly threw off the covers and hurled a pillow at him. The soft pillow didn't hurt when it hit his face. Ye Lichuan used this opportunity to feign misery, saying, "Anran, how cruel you are. As a man you once hurt..."
Unexpectedly, he was so shameless. Gu Anran jumped up and tackled him, sitting on his waist with a fierce look on her face. She grabbed his neck and asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
She didn't realize that her seat was dangerous because her actions made Ye Lichuan's heart flutter. Gu Anran, who noticed the abnormality, blushed and buried her face in his neck, whispering "shameless".
The Ye Lichuan of the past was cold and aloof; how could he possibly say such things? Now, he seems like a completely different person in front of her.
Ye Lichuan pulled her down into his arms, suppressing his desire, "If you move around and something happens, I won't be responsible."
Gu Anran froze immediately upon hearing this, her heavy breathing hitting her earlobe. She pursed her lips and forced herself to remain still.
After a while, Ye Lichuan finally let go of her. The sheets were all wrinkled. Gu Anran quickly straightened her clothes, got off him, and walked to the opposite corner of the room, keeping a distance from him.
Ye Lichuan didn't dare get any closer to her for fear of reigniting the fire, so he softened his voice and said, "Let me go, okay?"
A soft "Mmm" soothed her ears. Avoiding his burning gaze, she nodded and said gruffly, "Hurry up and get ready!" before shutting down and going into the bathroom.
Ye Lichuan immediately went to handle company matters. After finishing, he asked his assistant to book plane tickets and sit next to Gu Anran. The assistant had no choice but to suffer in silence, having gone through great lengths to finally get the tickets.
After coming out of the bathroom, Gu Anran began to help him pack his luggage. She changed to a large suitcase and put their belongings together.
The three of them set off early the next morning. Gu Anran assumed that the three of them would have different seats, until she realized that the person next to her was Ye Lichuan, and her eyes widened.
How did you get here?
"That's fate."
Gu Anran chose to ignore him, and soon began to feel sleepy, falling asleep on his shoulder.
Gu Xiaotian, who was sitting in the first row, had already seen through everything and silently muttered, "Naive."
Gu Xiaotian's adorable appearance attracted a lot of attention. Even the flight attendants noticed that he seemed to be traveling alone and came over to ask him about it, but he didn't bother to explain.
"Hey, do you see that couple in the last row? His wife is sleeping, and he told us not to go over and disturb them." He overheard the flight attendants whispering and knew without a doubt that they were his parents.
"Could you please give me a glass of water, sister?" He smiled, revealing his small tiger teeth on both sides. His soft voice and smile made the flight attendants feel maternal. He also received special care on the plane. It wasn't until they arrived at the airport and saw a good-looking couple taking Gu Xiaotian from them that they realized what was going on.
After they came out of the airport, the people arranged by Ye's father were already waiting. They were a little surprised to see that there were three of them, but they still took them to the hotel.
Fortunately, Father Ye arranged a suite, which was much more spacious for the three of them. After receiving the room key, Gu Xiaotian led the way and swiped the card to enter the room.
The room was simple, with upholstered furniture. It didn't feel like a luxurious hotel, but rather like a cozy home. The crystal chandelier overhead had been replaced with a small chandelier.
All three bedrooms are located near the forest. You can see the dense woods when you open the curtains. The air is also fresh. Xiaotian's room has a soft-edged sand waterbed, which can help you relax your body and ensure good sleep quality.
"Xiao Tian, do you want to go swimming?" Opening the balcony door reveals an outdoor swimming pool, its surface shimmering in the sunlight.
“Okay!” Ye Lichuan answered first.
Swimming in the hot weather was undoubtedly refreshing. The three of them started a water fight in the pool. After a while, Gu Anran brought Xiao Tian out, while Ye Lichuan started swimming.
Her agile figure and beautifully defined muscles, combined with the flowing water, were dazzling. Gu Anran blushed unconsciously, turned around and went to the bathroom. After taking a shower, she felt refreshed and lay on the sofa, not wanting to move.
Birdsong drifted in from outside the window, blending with the rustling of leaves to create a unique symphony. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere almost made her fall asleep.
"Mom..." She vaguely heard Xiao Tian's voice, but she couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell asleep.
Gu Xiaotian looked at her helplessly. Ye Lichuan walked in from the balcony and didn't move her, but just turned the temperature down a bit. She knew that Xiaotian was leaving and that she often couldn't fall asleep until two or three in the morning.
I was truly relaxed then, which is why I slept so soundly without any defenses.
