Princess Fusu is still as impressive as ever, with various novels being published, numerous TV series preparing to shoot, and movies being out of the question... Sigh, look at those time-traveling women, their lives are so busy, constantly making their presence felt, and the public couldnât be more familiar with them.
In comparison, it seems my only business venture currently is the restaurant, which I havenât visited in ages. Truly, the saying âcomparison is the thief of joyâ makes sense. After daydreaming for a while, Su Jiameng planned to win over the two little dumplings.
After all, itâs the Future Interstellar, and childrenâs upbringing isnât as conventional as it was during the Earth Era. Sometimes you can "cheat" a bit.
These two little dumplings, being born with a silver spoon, are growing at an astounding speed. From the time they hatched until now, theyâve already managed to turn themselves over, sit up with some assistance, and while walking is still challenging, crawling is no issue at all.
To ensure her image and memory presence in their minds, Su Jiameng spends an hour or two each day cozying up with the little ones, chatting with them... even though they donât understand what Su Jiameng is saying, and Su Jiameng canât fathom their babbling either.
When Su Mo was asked where the two little dumplings were, her response was unexpected, "At Gu Ningxuanâs place?"
Su Mo nodded with a hint of sadness on her face. Even though she spends the most time with the two little masters, why do they all prefer to stick to Gu Ningxuan? Although Gu Ningxuan is a âmale godâ, in her heart, he canât compare to the two little dumplings.
Going to the basement, she indeed found Gu Ningxuan, freshly washed after work, sitting on a soft blanket. He was playing with the two little dumplings, making funny faces, even managing to elicit laughter from the usually silent and calm Huaixi. The giggles never ceased.
"Xiao Fengfeng, look here at Uncle, here, here..." At that moment, Gu Ningxuan shed his usual serious and expressionless demeanor, smiled, even his eyes were laughing, as he placed his hands on his head making bunny ear gestures, occasionally bending them...
Watching how easily Feng Xiaozi was amused, Su Jiameng didnât know whether to resent her child for not being as close to her or to mock the little guyâs low humor threshold... easily won over just like that.
Watching the trio of one adult and two babies playing gleefully, Su Jiameng didnât know where to start her commentary. Upon seeing Su Jiameng, Huaixiâs smile widened. From sitting on the small blanket, he struggled to prop his hands on the ground, then wiggled his plump, round bottom, trying to crawl towards her, mouth still glistening with drool...
"Hmm?" Gu Ningxuan noticed Huaixiâs movements, and as he reached out to pick him up, he turned his head and saw the dumplingsâ mom watching him with a half-smile. Gu Ningxuan silently felt awkward and guilty... For some reason, he had the impression of a newbie child trafficker caught red-handed by the childâs mother just as he was about to abduct them.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for taking care of Huaixi and the others..." Su Jiameng stepped forward, picking up Huaifeng, who just realized her presence. The little guy seemed a bit tired from playing, let out a delicate yawn, then his little paws rested on her shoulder, his eyes squinting shut.
"Thereâs no need to thank me. I actually really like them and Iâm more than willing to take care of them," Huaixi in Gu Ningxuanâs arms kept trying to lean towards Su Jiamengâs side, his little paws reaching out, trying to grab onto her.
Well, this little guy still has some conscience... Su Jiameng secretly felt proud. Even though the two little dumplings got along well with Gu Ningxuan, she was still their mother. At critical moments, they would cling to her! Thinking of this, she felt triumphant.
Gu Ningxuan, unaware of her conflicting thoughts, noticed they each held a dumpling, and the phrase "family of four" inexplicably popped into his mind. In an instant, his face blushed. Recently, he didnât know how it happened, but strange thoughts seemed to pop up frequently. The more he tried to suppress them, the more they surfaced to grab attention...
He even researched this phenomenon online and concluded there was nothing wrong with his mind... The thoughts emerged because of certain things and people whose presence was too strong, easily leading his mind to wander.
"Miss Su..." Gu Ningxuanâs expression changed slightly, and he asked with a hint of awkwardness, "Itâs been so many days, and I still havenât seen the childrenâs father... Though you mentioned the fatherâs mysterious identity, have you ever thought of searching for him?"
As he said this, Gu Ningxuan inwardly cursed his second personality for making him ask this question. Wasnât it just asking for trouble? Everyone knew that Su Jiameng had forgotten her past and didnât know who she was, let alone about the childrenâs father...
"No... does having or not having this person greatly impact life?" Su Jiameng asked, puzzled.
No matter what others thought, she truly had no expectations for the childrenâs father, even wishing that the man had died in some pleasure-seeking neighborhood, just as long as he didnât show up asking for trouble and annoying people!
At that moment, Gu Ningxuan inexplicably felt a chill down his spine, as if a cold breeze brushed against his back...
In the virtual network of the Augustus Star System, the eldest of the Gu Family logged in at an old friendâs invitation, and the two had an invigorating battle, both sweating profusely. He snorted, "Your familyâs rogue tactics have truly been brought to new heights under your watch."
"This is a skill of the Jialanluo Clan, how can you call it rogue tactics?" A blue-haired young man of seemingly similar age laughed, his eyes carrying a pattern of blue grass leavesâa clear sign of the Jialanluo Clan. "But you, your strength has advanced further over the years; youâre very close to your limit, arenât you?"
"Still a bit more to go..." (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
