Chapter 561 Suddenly Appears
"You're awake?" Sister Qiu walked in, holding Xiao Bao in her arms.
Gu Zhiyao's attention quickly shifted, and she reached out to take the baby, asking, "Has the baby had his milk yet?"
"Yes, Young Master He is feeding him. I must say, Young Master He is a really responsible father. When Xiao Bao wakes up at five in the morning, he immediately wakes up and takes care of him. When Xiao Bao falls asleep at seven, he gets up to have breakfast with Chen Chen and Niu Niu and take them to school. When Xiao Bao wakes up again, he continues to feed him before going back to work." Sister Qiu said with a smile, "He also told me not to wake you and to wait until you wake up naturally."
Gu Zhiyao smiled awkwardly. When Sister Qiu asked her if she wanted to get up, she handed Xiaobao back to Sister Qiu and went to wash up.
After breakfast, the old lady came over.
The old lady was clearly very happy. She grabbed Gu Zhiyao's hand and said, "I heard that Ayi slept here with you last night? That's wonderful! Also, you don't need to feel embarrassed. It's perfectly normal. I've told you before that you still can't let go of Ayi. He's been trying his best to show you his love, so it's only natural that you're touched. In short, I'm really happy!"
Hearing the old lady say that, Gu Zhiyao naturally couldn't be coy anymore, so she simply asked the old lady, "Is your cough any better? Is it still hard to breathe?"
"Much better, just some old ailments, nothing serious."
Yes, people always have various minor ailments when they get old. The old lady is already 85 years old. If she is lucky, it would be very precious if she could live another ten years, but ten years is not a long time.
"What's wrong?" The old lady asked when she saw that Gu Zhiyao's expression suddenly became sad.
Gu Zhiyao shook her head, pursed her lips and remained silent, her eyes filled with sadness as she looked at the old lady.
The old lady quickly understood and smiled with relief, "Silly child, getting old, sick and dying is the natural law. Compared to many people, Grandma has actually made a profit."
"But I still hope you can live to be a hundred years old, or even longer," Gu Zhiyao said, her voice choked with emotion.
"Yes, Grandma will try her best. When I saw you and Ayi like that a while ago, I was really heartbroken. I even dreamed about your grandfather several times. I really wanted to go with your grandfather. But recently, I felt that I should stay here for a few more years and see you and Ayi truly love each other before I go."
"Thank you, Grandma, and thank you for your concern."
“Silly girl, it’s none of your business. You’ve already done so well. Ah Yi is lucky in the end. He’s fortunate to have your forgiveness. Grandma should be thanking you. Ah Yao, Grandma thanks you!”
Gu Zhiyao shook her head. Just then, Sister Qiu returned from sunbathing with Xiaobao, and the old lady's attention turned to the little guy. She played with him, and the whole scene was very heartwarming. Gu Zhiyao felt very gratified.
Around noon, Chenchen and Niuniu were picked up, had lunch, rested for a while, and then set off for the airport at 2 p.m.
Then, I received Xiao Lin on time.
Chenchen greeted him politely, while Niu Niu was more lively, excitedly shouting, "Uncle Xiao, I'm so glad to see you! I've missed you so much!"
Xiao Lin then picked her up and said cheerfully, "Really? I thought you'd forgotten about your uncle!"
"How could this be? How could this be? I could forget anyone but you!"
"Hehe, you little rascal, with just that mouth of yours, you'll be very popular and loved in the future!"
"Of course, I'm not like my brother who just tries to act cool all the time. You know, a girl in our class wanted to be friends with him, but he ignored her. So, a few girls gave him a nickname: 'Stinky Beauty Chen'!"
Chenchen immediately frowned and looked at Niu Niu with displeasure.
Niu Niu stuck out her little tongue and said, "I'm telling the truth. They originally told me not to tell you, but I only told you secretly because you're my brother. Anyway, you should change your ways in the future. Like Tingting said, you're very handsome, but you're too cold. If you could be gentler, they would like you even more!"
Who cares if they like it!
Chenchen shrugged, secretly scoffing in his heart.
Gu Zhiyao looked back and forth between the two little ones, feeling both amused and exasperated. Then, she exchanged a glance with Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin turned her attention to Xiao Bao and said, "He's even bigger than he looks in the video. Has he grown faster recently?"
"Uncle Xiao, don't you know? Humans grow rapidly during infancy, and the growth rate only slows down after the age of 3. So, it's normal for my little brother to grow fast. That's what Dad told me," Niu Niu, the social butterfly, said eagerly.
Xiao Lin smiled and said "oh," then looked at Gu Zhiyao again with a strange look in his eyes.
Gu Zhiyao knew what he was thinking, and her expression immediately showed a little unease.
Just then, Niu Niu called out, "Daddy!"
He Yi appeared.
He seemed a bit travel-worn as he strode up to the group. He first responded gently to Niu Niu, then looked at Gu Zhiyao, and finally his gaze fell on Xiao Lin, where he nodded to greet him.
Xiao Lin immediately expressed his gratitude, "You... you came separately from Zhiyao and the others? I originally planned to tell Zhiyao not to come, thank you for your help."
“No trouble at all,” He Yi said, glancing at Gu Zhiyao again. “There was a small accident at the factory, so I went to check it out, which is why I’m late.”
Gu Zhiyao was also surprised by his arrival. She remembered telling him that day that he didn't need to come, and he didn't insist on it. She thought he had accepted her suggestion, but she didn't expect him to come anyway.
However, she didn't think much of it. He came because of her, right? She couldn't be angry.
“I heard from Zhiyao that we’re going straight to your villa later? After we put our things down, we’ll go out for dinner. I’ve booked a room nearby, just to welcome you home,” He Yi said to Xiao Lin.
"Thank you, I'm sorry to have troubled you," Xiao Lin said politely.
"It's nothing." He Yi paused for a moment, then continued, "Compared to what you've done for Zhiyao and Chenchen over the years, this is nothing. I've always wanted to formally thank you, and this is a good opportunity for me to do my part as a host on behalf of Zhiyao. I'm truly grateful to you for those years, Xiao Lin!"
Everyone's thoughts were self-evident. Xiao Lin looked at He Yi, whose eyes were full of sincerity and gratitude, and his emotions fluctuated slightly. Then, he said, "From the orphanage, I have regarded Zhi Yao as my younger sister. Unfortunately, I lost my memory in those years and missed the chance to recognize her. Although I have been helping Zhi Yao these past few years, they have also been the happiest time of my life. I also want to thank Zhi Yao for giving me such a precious experience."
“Yes, she is great!” He Yi said, his eyes then looking at Gu Zhiyao with burning passion.
