Chapter 2378: Chapter 2382: Cherishing
Ye Xingbei: "...Fine, fine, I can’t win against you. I’m too sick, that’s why I’m arguing with you. I’m just asking for trouble!"
Gu Junzhu laughed and kissed her on the forehead, "It’s okay. If you can’t win the argument, you can try to ’subdue’ me with sleep... Tonight we’re sleeping in a tent, it will definitely feel completely different from being at home in bed."
He didn’t need to write it out; Ye Xingbei already knew exactly which "sleep" he meant.
Ye Xingbei glared at him, "We’re outside right now. The tent’s soundproofing is terrible, and we have three kids here. Don’t do anything foolish, or I’ll definitely lose my temper!"
Gu Junzhu hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear, "Our tent can be pitched further away from theirs, so they won’t hear anything."
"Go away," Ye Xingbei nudged him with her elbow, "Don’t even think about it!"
"Mom, did you see? The stars here are so beautiful!" Xiao Shumiao excitedly ran over.
"Yes," Ye Xingbei smiled as she looked down, stroking his head, "The stars here are especially beautiful. When I was little, I often came here with your uncle to watch the stars. In summer, there are also fireflies, and your uncle would catch them for me."
She lifted her head and gazed at the starry sky, a nostalgic expression in her eyes.
"Mom, which uncle is it?" Xiao Shumiao asked, "Is it Uncle Li?"
"No," Ye Xingbei looked down and touched his little face, "It’s another uncle... one you’ve never met..."
Before she met Gu Junzhu, she thought her foster brother had passed away in an accident.
If that weren’t the case, her foster brother wouldn’t have disappeared for so long without finding her.
After meeting Gu Junzhu, he told her that her foster brother might have been sent undercover, which is why she couldn’t track him down.
Accepting Gu Junzhu’s explanation, she never mentioned her foster brother to anyone.
Undercover work is extremely dangerous, the more careful, the better.
She subconsciously wanted to protect him.
Perhaps her actions were useless, but she couldn’t help overthinking due to how much she cared.
"Do I have other uncles?" Xiao Shumiao looked up at her, curiously saying, "Mom, I have so many uncles!"
Ye Xingbei smiled sweetly and ruffled his hair, "Yes, you do have many uncles!"
"Oh right, Mom," Xiao Shumiao suddenly remembered something, "Mom, where are we going to play tomorrow? Brother Xiao said he’ll take me to catch fish in the stream tomorrow! Brother Xiao said the water is shallow, so I can catch fish too! Mom, can we go with Brother Xiao to catch fish tomorrow?"
Seeing the longing in the little one’s eyes, Ye Xingbei smiled and nodded, "Okay!"
It doesn’t matter where they go to have fun.
As long as her son is happy!
"Yay!" Xiao Shumiao cheered, "I’ll go tell Brother Xiao!"
He let go of Ye Xingbei and ran back cheerfully to Qin Junye and Lingyue’s side, "Brother Xiaoyue, Brother, my mom agreed, we can go to the stream to catch fish tomorrow!"
Lingyue nodded.
Qin Junye asked, "Does your family make grilled fish as delicious as grilled chicken or rabbit?"
Just now, Qin Junye had the most satisfying meal he’d had in over a month.
He discovered that the food made by these people tasted different from that made by people in their village.
Even though they used the same ingredients, their cooking was so much more delicious, indescribably so!
