Chapter 369 It seems I've lost.



Xu Zhaozhao's actions are no different from Qin Yueling's direct confrontation.

What's the point of this woman pretending? There's nothing left for them to maintain.

[They were just trying to offer their blessings, why did you react like that?]

Is this really a blessing, or a curse? [picking nose]

[Sister Zhao is too kind-hearted. If it were me, I would have deleted the comment and blocked her immediately.]

...

Xu Zhaozhao stopped looking at Weibo and opened the WeChat message that popped up.

It's already past one o'clock, and Song Zhiyu is still not asleep?

Song Zhiyu: Goodness, why didn't you tell your mother it was my grandson's birthday?

Song Zhiyu: [Withered] Mom also really wanted to celebrate his birthday.

Shh: Okay, Mom, you should go to bed early. I'll bring Yu Yu to visit you tomorrow.

Shh: Get some rest! [Rose]

Song Zhiyu: Okay! Mom, I'm going to sleep right away! [Happy]

Alright, I've already decided on a place to blow the cake on my son's birthday tomorrow.

After dropping Xiao Kai off at home, the nanny carried the sleeping Xiao Kai into the car before slowly driving towards the villa.

After returning home, Gu Yulin was unusually clingy today, clamoring for Xu Zhaozhao to hold him.

Xu Zhaozhao's doting on him knew no bounds. After getting out of the passenger seat, she went around to the back seat, intending to carry him out.

The child has been playing all afternoon and is tired. What's wrong with wanting a hug?

In the end, Xu Zhaozhao didn't get to hug him.

As soon as she opened the back door, she found that Gu Yulin had already been dragged out on the other side.

Bang.

With a cold face, Gu Qingyan pulled him out, supporting him with one hand, and then closed the car door.

The movements were performed in one smooth motion.

"Let me go!"

Gu Yulin struggled, "I want Mommy to hold me!"

Gu Qingyan ignored his struggles, went around to Xu Zhaozhao's side, closed her car door, and then easily took her hand.

The three of them walked towards the door.

His mother was right next to him, but he couldn't be hugged. Gu Yulin's resentment was heavier than that of a ghost.

She looked at Xu Zhaozhao with her almond-shaped eyes, silently acting coquettish.

"or……"

Xu Zhaozhao's heart softened as expected. She was about to ask to take her son into her arms when Gu Qingyan ruthlessly rejected her.

"No way."

He casually uttered two words.

Gu Yulin's face turned red with anger, and without caring whether she would fall, she twisted around wildly.

"Be good, I'll hug you."

Gu Qingyan was still worried that he would fall, so she patiently explained, "Mom is wearing high heels, so it will be hard for her to carry you."

This reasoning successfully convinced Gu Yulin.

"snort!"

He stopped struggling and glared at Gu Qingyan several times. "Why didn't you say that earlier? It doesn't cost anything to say a few more words!"

Xu Zhaozhao was stunned; she hadn't expected Gu Qingyan to be worried about her...

It's true that wearing high heels can make your feet tired, but carrying this for a short distance won't be a problem.

A smile couldn't help but spread across his face.

Gu Qingyan was first pushed into the bathroom by Xu Zhaozhao. In front of Yu Yu's room, Gu Yulin finally got his wish and entered Xu Zhaozhao's arms.

She changed into flat slippers, and Gu Qingyan didn't object. She and Yu Yu went into the room.

Holding Yu Yu in her arms, Xu Zhaozhao faced the makeup mirror and carefully removed Gu Yulin's makeup with cotton pads.

Yu Yu doesn't like having the nanny help with these personal matters. Xu Zhaozhao is worried that he won't remove his makeup properly, leaving some harmful residue that could damage his skin.

I had to do it myself, so I took a bottle of gentle makeup remover and helped him remove the clown makeup from his face.

It took five or six cotton pads to restore my son's fair and tender little face.

Xu Zhaozhao finally felt relieved after washing her face with baby face wash one last time.

Xu Zhaozhao pinched her son's clean, handsome face, and said in a good mood, "Alright, you can go take a shower now."

But Gu Yulin didn't move for a long time, frowning and shaking his head.

Xu Zhaozhao was a little confused and touched his head, "What's wrong, baby?"

Gu Yulin's brows furrowed even more deeply.

"Mom, you..."

Can you please stop calling that stinky man "baby"?! Only he can be called "baby"!!

However, he couldn't bring himself to utter such unreasonable, jealous remarks, and fell silent for a moment.

He grabbed Xu Zhaozhao's sleeve.

Oh my goodness!

Xu Zhaozhao suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, it turns out I forgot to give my dear baby the gift!"

Gu Yulin: ...

Well, that is indeed another big deal.

Xu Zhaozhao ran quickly to her room, while Gu Qingyan was still in the bathroom.

Next to her gift, she saw another gift box with an envelope on it, addressed to four-year-old Gu Yulin.

It must be a gift from Gu Qingyan to him.

Xu Zhaozhao then carried them to Gu Yulin's bedroom.

Xu Zhaozhao pushed Yuyu into the bathroom. "Baby, Mommy will put the gift on your table. You can open it slowly after you take a bath."

She also wrote a letter to Yu Yu, but it was very necessary to avoid it, lest she feel nauseous at her own sentimentality.

Gu Yulin had no choice but to go into the bathroom to take a shower first. After he came out, he immediately saw the box on the table.

He walked over, moved the letter aside, and paused, startled.

Is it a limited edition Ultraman figure, or even a Tiga one? He's been looking for it for ages but hasn't been able to buy it...

For Ultraman's sake, I'll forgive you for using his name today.

Xu Zhaozhao's gift was right next to him; it was also a gift box, but there was nothing on it, so Gu Yulin couldn't tell what it was.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided not to demolish it for now.

He was afraid he wouldn't be able to sleep; it was his birthday tomorrow, and he didn't want to have a bad birthday.

...

When Xu Zhaozhao returned to the master bedroom, Gu Qingyan had already come out of the bathroom, his pink outfit standing on the balcony was quite eye-catching.

The room was dark, but the crimson dot in his hand was clearly visible in the darkness, and white smoke drifted through the air.

Xu Zhaozhao was puzzled.

Why is this guy smoking again?

Since she hadn't showered, she pushed open the balcony door, and was immediately enveloped by the strong smell of tobacco.

"Why are you smoking again?"

There was no blame in Xu Zhaozhao's tone; it was just a simple question.

He turned his head to meet her gaze.

His makeup was off, but his eyes were still red.

The two stared at each other, with Gu Qingyan seemingly having no intention of answering her question.

Xu Zhaozhao waited silently for him to finish drawing.

"Go wash again."

Xu Zhaozhao poked his shoulder, "It stinks."

The next second, Xu Zhaozhao fell into Gu Qingyan's arms, surrounded by an even stronger smell of smoke.

"Baby……"

Gu Qingyan called out the name that made Xu Zhaozhao feel ashamed, his voice still trembling slightly, "The game ended more than an hour ago."

He lowered his head, his forehead pressed against hers, his eyes broken: "It seems I've lost."

The sound was so soft it seemed like it could dissipate in the next second.

Xu Zhaozhao's pupils contracted slightly.

She'd completely forgotten about that lousy game...
