Chapter 2724: Chapter 2728: Almost Had a Heart Attack

"Hmm, Gu Junzhu has urged me several times to go to the hospital for a check-up, but the last place I want to go is the hospital. He’s urged me many times, but I’ve managed to avoid it by finding excuses," Ye Xingbei said. "Although my appetite hasn’t been great recently and I get tired easily, I sleep soundly and the quality of my sleep is good. When I wake up, I feel pretty comfortable, not like I’m sick. I hate hospitals, I don’t want to go. I think if I just rest for a while, I’ll be fine."

She got up late, chatted with Yao Yaya for a bit, and then wandered around the shop for a while. Before she knew it, it was noon.

After lunch, she played with Xiao Shumiao and a few others in the backyard for over half an hour, then ushered the kids to take their afternoon nap.

The little ones are always full of energy. If she doesn’t watch them, they never obediently take their nap.

For them to nap, she has to issue a strict order before they’ll lie down and sleep.

After ensuring the kids were asleep, she returned to her room.

She had a ten-minute phone call with Gu Junzhu, finalizing their plans to spend Christmas Eve on the boat. After hanging up, she, too, went to sleep.

She ended up sleeping until the evening.

Outside the window, the sun had turned into a unique evening egg-yolk yellow, with a sky full of sunset glow spreading across the yard, creating a romantic atmosphere that made the beautiful courtyard look like a painting.

Standing by the window, Ye Xingbei enjoyed the view of the courtyard and drank half a cup of warm water before changing clothes and leaving the bedroom.

Xiao Shumiao’s bedroom was already empty.

She went downstairs to the backyard.

Before she even reached the backyard, she heard the children’s carefree laughter.

Just hearing that laughter, she knew her son was playing wildly again.

Previously, when there were only Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue at home, Lingyue didn’t like talking much or playing wildly, so the two of them were pretty quiet.

Ever since Qin Junye came to the Gu Family, one of them was mischievous and the other braver than most, they became like kindred spirits, climbing trees and walls, having a blast every day.

Now, there’s also Huo Zhongqi.

Huo Zhongqi seems to be a quiet child, naturally mature, and behaves like a little adult.

But as Ye Xingbei got to know him, she realized that this kid’s courage is no less than Qin Junye’s.

In the yard’s big tree, whatever height Qin Junye dared to climb, he dared to climb to the same height.

On the wall, whatever speed Qin Junye dared to run, he dared to run at the same speed.

Once, she went to the backyard and happened to catch the two kids racing along the top of the wall. One ran from south to north, the other from north to south.

Lingyue sat by the stone table reading a book, while her silly son jumped up and down by the wall, cheering on the two kids.

On a wall several meters high, the two kids ran like gusts of wind, both rushing to the middle.

She stood at the moon door, watching and nearly had a heart attack.

She didn’t dare make a sound, fearing she might startle the kids and cause them to fall off the wall.

Later, after the two kids came down from the wall, she was so angry that her face changed color.

But Gu Junzhu was completely nonchalant.

He said kids are resilient; even if they fall off the wall, at most they’ll break an arm or a leg, but they won’t die.

Is that even human speech?!

Since then, she laid down strict rules for the four children.

They could play, but safety must be ensured.

She gave the bodyguards accompanying the kids a stern warning, too, that if anything like this happened again, they must intervene.

If they refused to listen, she told the bodyguards to call her.

The bodyguards nodded in agreement.
