Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 370
Chapter 370: Chapter 371: Baby!
Ye Xingbei finished her hygiene routine, intending to call him back to bed. As soon as she entered the room, she saw him lying on the pillow, deep in sleep.
Lingyue was sitting beside him, holding a book. When he saw her coming in, he put down the book and lowered his voice, “Sister-in-law.”
Although Lingyue had already called her “sister-in-law” more than a dozen times, Ye Xingbei still felt all sorts of embarrassment, discomfort, and unfamiliarity.
How did she, a beautiful young girl of only twenty-one, become a sister-in-law?
The title “sister-in-law” sounds like it should belong to a woman in her thirties or forties.
But she was afraid that if she made it too obvious, Lingyue might think she wasn’t willing to accept him as her apprentice, so even though she was uncomfortable, she gritted her teeth and bore it.
She walked over to Xiao Shumiao, reached out her hand to check his forehead temperature, “Is he asleep?”
“Yes,” Lingyue nodded, speaking softly, “You don’t mind if Xiao Shu sleeps here tonight, do you? I am afraid he might wake up if we move him.”
Ye Xingbei hesitated for a moment before nodding.
The bed was large enough for two children with room to spare.
Lingyue, being a considerate person, wouldn’t have any issues putting Xiao Shu to bed.
After reminding Lingyue to turn in early, she left his room and shut the door for them.
As she closed the door, she couldn’t help wondering how elated the Fifth Lord of Gu would be knowing that Xiao Shumiao was sleeping in Lingyue’s room tonight.
Humph!
As expected, the Fifth Lord of Gu was overjoyed.
At first, he loved having Xiao Shumiao sleep with them because it was a novel and warm experience.
However, ever since he and Ye Xingbei started doing some adult activities at night, having Xiao Shumiao around became inconvenient.
Ye Xingbei was modest and reserved.
With a child around, she would hold herself back even if she couldn’t breathe, her whole body trembling, managing to make no sound, let alone let him try any more daring positions.
But tonight Xiao Shumiao wasn’t there, so he had free rein to do this and that, and then again!
He pressed himself on Ye Xingbei, hands wandering around.
Ye Xingbei knew she wouldn’t be able to avoid it tonight, so she didn’t struggle futilely. She simply bit down hard on his shoulder.
While she still had some strength, she would vent out a little first and worry about the rest later!
Gu Junzhu untied her sleeping gown, kissed her shoulder, and pinched her tender cheek, “My darling, I noticed you’re different from other women. You have exceptional restraint! Are you really not curious about my secret?”
Ye Xingbei responded with her expressionless face, “You can tell me now!”
Since there’s no escape tonight, she needed to get at least a little something in advance, right?
Gu Junzhu chuckled, his fingers tracing her delicate collarbone, “Aren’t you going to the company tomorrow?”
Ye Xingbei nodded, “Yes!”
She had been absent from Star Palace for a while, and Ye Xingli had been the one holding the fort, which had nearly driven him to distraction.
Although she had managed to write a song while she was in Beijing and passed it to Ye Xingli, and Ye Xingli was quite pleased with her new song and confidently claimed that it would top the charts next season, it still wasn’t enough to soothe his aggrieved spirit.
The day she returned to Jiang City, Ye Xingli had called her and complained so loudly that Gu Junzhu, who was sitting next to her, could also hear him. He could bear it no longer, snatched the phone and said, “It’s fine to have moss growing on your body, just don’t let it grow on your head.”
Her poor Second Brother almost choked on his words, and in his haste, he hung up the phone.
Now that everything about Lingyue was settled, he and Xiao Shu would go back to school tomorrow, and she could finally return to Star Palace to rescue Ye Xingli, liberating him from his misery..
