101. Warmth
After Gu Qi's full moon celebration, Ke Qi returned to school.
Fortunately, there were fewer courses in her senior year, so Keqi's one-month leave didn't cause her too much trouble.
After returning home, she received many blessings from her classmates.
After all, there are people like her who get married, register their marriage, and have children during their university years, but they are not many.
And, she talked about Gu Damowang, the most difficult person to talk to, from the neighboring sports school, and even made him the husband who died after giving birth, a glorious achievement that is still talked about in the forums of the two schools.
Logically speaking, given how far they've come, any suitors who still have feelings for them should have given up long ago.
But to Ke Qi's surprise, there was still someone who persisted.
At this very moment, at the gate of University A.
Fang Zeqing looked at Ke Qi and said, "I never thought you would actually end up with him today."
Ke Qi looked at him speechlessly without replying.
However, in the nearly two years since then, Fang Zeqing has changed a lot.
The former campus heartthrob of University A now looks much more weathered and worn down by the realities of life.
They are no longer as spirited as they once were, nor as arrogant and overbearing as they once were.
"Qiqi, I regret it so much."
He looked at Ke Qi with red eyes and said, "I'm sorry. You were so good to me back then, but I didn't know how to cherish it."
So after the breakup, perhaps as punishment from God, he never met such a good girl again.
Good-looking, good-tempered, multi-talented, and gentle and considerate to her lover.
It's true that people only know how to cherish something after they've lost it.
His gaze swept over her increasingly beautiful face and her figure, which had shed its girlish naiveté and become even more alluring.
"Qiqi, if only I had been nicer to you back then."
He looked at her hopefully, "Would you have married me and borne me a baby back then?"
Will it?
Ke Qi did indeed have this idea back then.
pity……
"One cannot always dwell on the past."
She looked at Fang Zeqing calmly, unable to muster any further emotions, not even disgust.
"Fang Zeqing, there's no point in bringing up these things from the past. You're not a child anymore, look forward."
"My husband and I are very happy now, please don't bother me anymore, thank you."
After she finished speaking, she coldly brushed past him.
"Qiqi!"
Fang Zeqing turned around and grabbed her arm: "Wait a minute!"
Just as Ke Qi was about to explode, he said in a self-deprecating tone, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to bother you this time."
After he finished speaking, he handed her the tote bag he had been carrying from the beginning.
"I heard that you and your baby have reached their one-month milestone. This is a gift for your baby's one-month celebration."
His eyes were smiling, but slightly reddened: "Please accept it, as a small token of my appreciation as a friend."
Upon hearing this, Ke Qi's anger subsided, and she looked at him with some surprise.
She no longer saw any scheming, resentment, or jealousy on that face.
All that remains is regret, bitterness, and... a sense of relief.
Can you still be friends after breaking up?
Yes, it's possible, but Keqi doesn't want to.
"Thank you," Ke Qi said sincerely. "But it's alright, making money isn't easy, you should keep it for yourself."
After she finished speaking, she gave him a faint smile, then resolutely turned and left.
The warm spring sun illuminated her slender figure, like a blooming flower; the more beautiful she was, the more unattainable she seemed.
Fang Zeqing thought to himself, "I was once fortunate enough to have it too."
But now, she is destined to be completely separate from him for the rest of her life.
All those past events resurfaced in my mind.
A charming and beautiful girl would cook for him when he was exhausted.
When he was sad and disappointed, we encouraged and comforted him in every way possible, and tried everything to cheer him up.
He can still remember every detail of every hug and kiss he shared with her.
So soft and sweet...
It turns out that momentary pride, complacency, and arrogance can cause one to lose so much.
If time could turn back...
He couldn't help himself and opened the photo in the album again.
It was a lovely baby.
He has a beautiful face that is about 50% similar to Keqi's, with big, expressive eyes, cute little horns and a tail.
So, this adorable baby should have been conceived by her.
The lingering resentment surged within Fang Zeqing once more. He took a deep breath, and his feigned relief crumbled little by little as he painfully closed his eyes.
...
That night, in the Cloud Realm and the Courtyard.
The nanny who was supposed to help take care of the baby has disappeared.
In the living room, an early childhood education cartoon was playing on the television.
As Ke Qi walked to the door, she could see from afar a tall, handsome young man lounging lazily on a fluffy baby rug in the middle, teasing a little baby lying opposite him in the same position.
“Pa~”
Little Gu Qi braced himself with his chubby little paws, trying to touch his father's long, slender fingers.
But after several attempts, it still ended up face down on the carpet, with only its small, pale blue tail sticking up and swaying in the air.
The young man was amused, straightened up and sat cross-legged, easily picked up the little one and put him in his arms, and couldn't help but lower his head and plant a series of kisses on the little face.
“Pa~ Eeya~”
The little cub protested and struggled as it was kissed, stretching out its soft little paws and swearing quite rudely, while also gently slapping its father's face with its little tail.
But the protest was ineffective, and the young man, who was several sizes older than him, also revealed his large, pale blue tail, easily catching him in the act of misbehaving.
"You've gone too far! You dare to lay a hand on your father?"
"Punish him by kissing him to death!"
Gu Zhao laughed and scolded, then lowered his head and showered his son's face with another whirlwind of kisses.
This heartwarming scene caught Ke Qi's eye, and she couldn't help but chuckle as she changed into her slippers and walked over.
"How can you be so childish, arguing with a baby like that?"
As she spoke, both the young man and the baby in his arms paused for a moment.
"Mada~"
Little Gu Qi's expression instantly became excited, and she waved her little paws in the direction she was.
Gu Zhao immediately stood up, carrying the baby, and walked over to hug her. "Wife, you're back?"
He kissed her cheek. "Have you missed me and the baby?"
It's only been half a day since we last met.
Ke Qi was both amused and exasperated. "Yes, I want to."
She gave him a few kisses out of politeness, until the little one in his arms cried out loudly before she stopped.
"Okay, okay, Mommy will hug you."
After comforting her husband, Ke Qi gently took the baby from his arms and planted a kiss on his cute little horns. "Was the baby good today?"
"Ya ya~"
Little Guqi giggled happily at her, its light blue tail wagging as if it could be used to hula hoop.
"Okay, I know." Keqi rubbed his little tail. "Our baby is super well-behaved."
"Tap~" Little Gu Qi seemed to really enjoy having his mother pet his tail, and he wrapped his tail around her slender fingers and acted coquettishly.
Ke Qi's heart softened completely, and she instantly transformed into the husband she had been just minutes before, showering her child with kisses.
The little guy was eventually exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
Ke Qi then got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
However, a few minutes later.
"Gu Zhao!" she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Could you please get me something? I left it in the locker in my bedroom."
"good."
Gu Zhao, who was in the living room, heard her voice and knew what she wanted to take without asking.
But instead of taking her instructions, he went straight to the bathroom.
"Snap~"
The door opened, and Ke Qi looked at her husband who walked in empty-handed. She crossed her arms and asked疑惑地问道, "Where are the things?"
Gu Zhao said matter-of-factly, "I didn't take it."
He approached her step by step and scooped her directly out of the bathtub. "I'm here."
He glanced down at her figure, which was noticeably fuller than before she gave birth, and chuckled, "There's no need for that useless thing."
After saying that, he bowed his head.
