Chapter 1560: Chapter 1564: So Good, So Sensible
Gu Junzhu pinched her cheek, “Ye Xiaobei, you’re getting more and more outrageous! Do you talk about your husband this way?”
Ye Xingbei swatted his hand away and gave him a playful glare, “I didn’t make anything up about you, just telling the truth as it is. Don’t you realize it yourself?”
Gu Junzhu feigned heartbreak and squeezed next to her, wrapping his arm around her shoulders, “Ye Xiaobei, I heard thick disdain in your tone! Be honest with me, have you stopped loving me? Tell me, have you fallen for someone else?”
Ye Xingbei was giggling from his antics, pushing him hard, “Go away! My brother is sick, and you’re making me laugh so much, it makes me look heartless…too much!”
“It’s just a cold and fever, who hasn’t had one before?” Gu Junzhu glanced down at Xie Jinfei, who was sleeping soundly on Ye Xingbei’s lap, finding the scene a bit odd, he chose to sit back across from Ye Xingbei.
He shook his head and sighed, “It’s not that I’m intentionally looking down on him, it’s just that he’s too disappointing, who’s to blame?”
Ye Xingbei looked down at Xie Jinfei and couldn’t help but laugh, “Just now, when Si Jin and Si Yan saw my Second Brother lying on Mianmian’s bed, their faces turned black instantly, they looked so displeased, I… I actually felt kind of sorry for them.”
Gu Junzhu poked her cheek, “You call that sympathy? Why do I feel like you’re gloating?”
Ye Xingbei swatted his hand away again, then looked down at Xie Jinfei and said, “When I get back, I’ll prepare some beautiful jewelry for Mianmian. As soon as my Second Brother wakes up, he must immediately go to the Si Family to propose. If my Second Brother ever dares to treat Mianmian badly, I’ll be the first to disagree!”
Last night’s actions by Si Duomian, whether for the Si Family or Si Duomian herself, were a big hit to their reputation.
So next, her Second Brother should humble himself a little, or even more, to help the Si Family regain their reputation.
Otherwise, if word gets out, the rumors outside might be terrible.
Like the Si Family is bending over backward to get Xie Jinfei to marry their daughter, inviting him to sleep at their place in the middle of the night, fearing he won’t marry their daughter, and such nonsense.
If such rumors spread, it would greatly damage the Si Family and Si Duomian’s dignity!
Gu Junzhu patted her head, praising, “So good, so sensible!”
“Oh, stop it!” Ye Xingbei gave him a playful glare, “Don’t mess around.”
“I’m not messing around, I’m serious,” Gu Junzhu said, “Ye Xiaobei, your poise and grace make you the perfect lady of the Gu Family, understanding the big picture, seeing the big picture, and especially sensible, I definitely found a treasure.”
Ye Xingbei glanced at him, “People say, unsolicited kindness is never genuine. What are you up to, suddenly showering me with so many praises?”
Gu Junzhu shook his head, “Oh no, oh no, my heart is really shattered into pieces! Ye Xiaobei, only you in the whole world would talk about me like this!”
“Yes, yes!” Ye Xingbei laughed playfully, “Because I’m the one who knows you best in the whole world!”
Gu Junzhu leaned closer, “Is it because we often have intimate, close contact and are the closest to each other?”
“…Get away!” Ye Xingbei glanced down at Xie Jinfei and lowered her voice, “Are you crazy? My brother is still here!”
“Let him be,” Gu Junzhu gave Xie Jinfei a glance full of disdain, “Just a sick cat burning up, clueless about even his name!”
Ye Xingbei: “…I won’t talk to you anymore!”
She kept her word, and no matter how Gu Junzhu tried to tease her next, she remained silent.
