Chapter 1040: Chapter 1044 Really Poisonous! Chapter 1040: Chapter 1044 Really Poisonous! “Mom, let me tell you a joke!” Speaking of various things, Xiao Shumiao suddenly remembered a joke and, hugging Ye Xingbei’s neck, he said, “I saw it on TV yesterday, told by a chubby brother. He said that a man took his girlfriend to eat lobster, he wanted a small one, his girlfriend wanted a big one, and he was displeased. So in front of many people, he scolded his girlfriend, saying, ‘What’s wrong with small? What’s wrong with small? Can’t small satisfy you?’ After he scolded his girlfriend, many people looked at him and even looked down on him!”

Ye Xingbei: “…!”

She suddenly covered Xiao Shumiao’s mouth, despairingly saying, “Son, please, could you not casually tell jokes to people in the future?”

Xiao Shumiao’s eyes widened as he pulled Ye Xingbei’s hand from his mouth and asked puzzledly, “What’s wrong, Mom? Isn’t it funny?”

“…” Ye Xingbei was speechlessly choked up.

Was it supposed to be funny?

Where’s the humor in that, son!

All she felt was overwhelming embarrassment!

“I think it’s very funny!” Xiao Shumiao tilted his head and said, “Big lobsters are pricier than small ones, the man must be stingy or broke, unwilling to treat his girlfriend to a big lobster, so he claimed that a small lobster could also satisfy his girlfriend, but of course, the big one tastes better. So, the other customers in the restaurant despised him because he lied to his girlfriend!”

At this, Xiao Shumiao joyfully looked at Gu Junzhu: “My dad is rich and can treat Mom to big lobsters. Dad is the best; he can definitely satisfy Mom!”)
Ye Xingbei’s tears streamed down her face.

Begging you, son, please don’t say anymore!

Gu Junzhu tried hard to hold back his laughter, his shoulders twitching, “Right, Xiao Shumiao got it right, Dad is the best!”

“See!” Xiao Shumiao threw his arms around Gu Junzhu, giving him a kiss, and happily said, “Indeed, we men think alike. Women can’t appreciate jokes like Xiao Shu’s.”

Ye Xingbei ran off in tears.

Her son was toxic.

Really toxic!

The car door opened, and Gu Chi bowed slightly, “Young master, Young Madam, we have arrived.”

Gu Junzhu carried Xiao Shumiao out of the car, setting him down on the ground; Xiao Shumiao looked at the scenery in front of him, awestruck, “Wow! It’s so beautiful!”

Gu Junzhu then covered Ye Xingbei’s eyes with one hand and led her by the hand out of the car with the other.

With her eyes covered by Gu Junzhu, it actually gave Ye Xingbei a moment to relieve the embarrassment she desperately wanted to hide from, casually asking with forced nonchalance, “What is it? Why the mystery?”

“You’ll see soon,” Gu Junzhu, still covering her eyes, led her forward a few dozen meters, then released his hand from her eyes, “You can open your eyes now.”

Ye Xingbei slowly opened her eyes.

As her eyes gradually opened, a sea of flowers unfolded before her.

The light blue flowers were swaying gently with the night breeze, appearing to have a faint luminescence that sparkled intermittently in the night, like stars fallen from the sky to the mundane world, dreamily beautiful.

After staring dumbfounded for a long time, Ye Xingbei finally murmured admiringly, “So beautiful!”

“Of course,” Gu Junzhu smiled slightly, “It’s called Star Grass, blooming only at night, closing during the day. Star Grass is challenging to grow; it requires careful tending and comes at a high cost. This field of Star Grass is the only large-scale plot in Beijing, and the magnificent view before you is unique to Beijing, not available to others!”
