Chapter 1080: Chapter 1084: Baby Chapter 1080: Chapter 1084: Baby “Thank you, Fifth Brother!” Xie Jinfei immediately accepted the tea Gu Junzhu passed to him with stunned delight.

Fifth Lord of Gu was actually offering him tea personally!

What an honor that was.

He assured himself that there can’t be more than ten people in all of Beijing who could enjoy such treatment!

Indeed, there were advantages to being Fifth Lord of Gu’s uncle.

Even though he couldn’t put on airs, Fifth Lord of Gu was especially polite to him, right?

“Don’t mention it,” Gu Junzhu stood up and sat down between Xie Jinfei and Ye Xingbei, draping an arm around Ye Xingbei’s shoulder with an especially warm smile, “Drink up. Drinking too much tea at night can cause insomnia, and if you can’t sleep, you can continue to daydream.”

Xie Jinfei: “…”

Xie Yunlin held his forehead, unable to face his foolish younger brother.

Xie Jinfei stuttered, “Day, day, daydream?”

Suppressing the urge to scorn his stupid younger brother, Xie Yunlin looked at Gu Junzhu and said, “Xiao Fei was just using a metaphor. He meant that the three of us siblings will always stick together. He didn’t literally mean for our sister to come home to live.”

“Ah…” Xie Jinfei was taken aback, then nodded profusely, “Right, right, right, that’s what I meant!”

Ye Xingbei had no words.

Second Brother, I’ve just come back from a trip around Feng City in Country Y, how can you still be so timid?

Xie Yunlin pulled his foolish younger brother up to leave, “Fifth Brother, Beibei, it’s getting late. We should head back now. You both should rest early as well.”

Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei also stood up to see them off in their car.

As the car drove off into the distance, Ye Xingbei twisted Gu Junzhu’s arm and glared at him, “Can’t you be nicer to my brother? Look how scared you made my Second Brother!”

“Is it my fault he’s timid?” Fifth Lord of Gu looked innocently, “I was actually quite polite. Otherwise, why isn’t your elder brother scared?”

Ye Xingbei rolled her eyes at him, muttering, “Can’t be bothered to argue with you!”

Although he could be temperamental, he was extremely dependable when it mattered.

Whatever the problem, as long as he was around, it was sure to be resolved with ease.

And he took her concerns to heart.

Whether it was Jiao Tao or Xie Motong’s affairs, he didn’t hesitate and went all out to help her.

Considering this, she decided not to nitpick.

After all, no one’s perfect!

And looking at her Second Brother, he didn’t seem to take it to heart at all.

Ye Xingbei somewhat shamelessly thought her Second Brother must have grown accustomed to being bullied by Fifth Lord of Gu.

Returning to the bedroom, Gu Junzhu had some business to attend to and entered the study to work.

She took Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue back to their room to sleep.

After getting the two children to sleep, she returned to her and Gu Junzhu’s bedroom to take a bath.

After her bath, while she was blow-drying her hair in front of the mirror, her phone rang.

It was a video call invitation from Yian Jingxue.

She clicked accept and Yian Jingxue’s grinning face instantly appeared on the screen.

Upon seeing Ye Xingbei, Yian Jingxue’s eyes lit up, “Wow, I’ve timed this perfectly, catching a beauty after her bath again. Baby, look at our connection. I reckon you’re meant to marry me!”

Ye Xingbei continued to towel her hair dry while smiling, “What, giving up on your handsome brother?”

Yian Jingxue clutched her heart, “Baby, my love for you is deep-seated. If you’re willing to marry me, it doesn’t matter about any handsome brother, even if it were the imperial younger brother, I’d cast him aside like old shoes. I only want you!”

“Just keep joking!” Ye Xingbei asked her with concern, “Did your second uncle and third uncle’s family leave? They didn’t give you a hard time, did they?”
