Ye Xingbei could see that it was a little awkward for Lingyue to behave like a child.

But Lingyue did not refuse. He let his son hold his hand and join in the mess running around the living room.

Ye Xingbei watched with a smile, but the more she watched, the more she felt for the two children.

Her son used to be like Lingyue, preferring calmness over activity, looking like a little adult.

With Gu Junzhu, her son’s nature seemed to be liberated overnight, becoming more and more like a child of his age.

Such a child seemed to be living in a honey pot, with everything sweet as honey in their heart and radiant smiles on their faces.

She wished that one day, Lingyue could also be like her son, live like a child.

Ye Xingbei watched the two children play for a while, then waved to them, “Okay, stop playing. Come and take a rest, and let’s eat.”

Xiao Shumiao let go of Lingyue’s hand and ran into Ye Xingbei’s embrace. Holding Ye Xingbei’s waist, he looked up with his little face and called out “mom”, happily coquettish.

Ye Xingbei’s heart melted, she rubbed his little head, and her face was full of smiles.

Lingyue, standing there staring blankly, suddenly thought, it would be nice if his mother was still alive.

His mother would surely be as warm and gentle as Xiaoshu’s mom, lovingly stroking his head.

Ye Xingbei noticed his gaze and also reached out to rub his head. “Didn’t the doctor say you were injured and needed to rest well? Why are you messing around with Xiao Shu? And you…”

Ye Xingbei turned to Gu Junzhu, pretend scolding, “The children are innocent, aren’t you too? Xiao Yue is injured, you should let him rest properly. Instead, you let him practice martial arts with you. You’re older now, why are you so disregarding?”

“How old am I?” Gu Junzhu laughed, “If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you were talking about my father!”

Ye Xingbei derided him, “Anyway, you don’t act like an adult. Don’t you know how to take care of Xiao Yue?”

“No, aunty,” Lingyue quickly said, “Uncle did tell me to rest properly. I wanted to learn, so I secretly followed uncle to practice.”

He wanted to learn martial arts, to become stronger.

Once stronger, Yi Xingling wouldn’t be able to beat him, and he could protect himself and Xiao Shu.

Ye Xingbei gently stroked his head with pity, “Your main task now is to heal your injuries, recover your health. The martial training can wait, there is no rush.”

Lingyue pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, his gaze dimmed.

Xiao Shu was not in a hurry.

But he couldn’t wait.

This was Xiao Shu’s home, but he was just a passerby.

Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after, he wouldn’t be here much longer, he would have to go back to his cold “home”.

He had to seize every moment, learn as much as he could.

Seeing him standing alone, with a slender, pitiful figure, Ye Xingbei’s heart ached. She couldn’t help but touch his little face and softly said, “Xiao Yue, don’t be afraid. You helped Xiao Shu, and aunty will help you too. Even if your mother takes you back in the future, aunty will find a way to take care of you.”

Her voice was as gentle as water, and Lingyue’s eyes reddened. He looked up at her, sincerely saying, “Thank you, aunty!”

Apart from his grandma, Xiao Shu’s family were the kindest people to him.

He was still young, and couldn’t repay them now.

He would have to study hard, learn great skills, and when he grows up, become someone very remarkable. Then, he’d be kind to Xiao Shu and his parents, buying them lots of nice things!

“Alright,” Ye Xingbei rubbed the two children’s heads, cheerfully saying, “Go wash your hands, it’s time to eat!”

The little guy cheered, “Wow, time to eat, yummy!”

He caught Lingyue’s hand, “Brother Xiao Yue, time to wash hands and eat!”

He pulled Lingyue and dashed towards the washroom.

Ye Xingbei watched them for a while with a smile, then turned her gaze away, intending to check how the morning preparations were going in the kitchen, when the housekeeper walked in to report, “Young master, Young madam, Xin City is visiting outside..”
