That being said, Senior Master Gu wouldn’t have chosen such a beautiful Ye Xingbei for their Fifth Brother if she wasn’t so beautiful, would he? They suspect their Fifth Brother wouldn’t be interested otherwise.

Not to mention, Ye Xingbei’s beauty alone is unrivaled throughout Beijing.

Besides, she’s also the world-renowned Asterism.

Probably only a woman like Ye Xingbei, who has both beauty and talent, could conquer their woman-avoiding Fifth Brother.

As he daydreamed, Gu Junzhu glancing back at him while cradling Xiao Shumiao: “I’ll take your sister-in-law home first and check on her injuries. If they’re serious, we’ll have to cancel tonight’s gathering and reschedule.”

Chu Dingbang wanted to protest, all the brothers were keen to meet their surrogate sister-in-law and nephew.

If the gathering were to be canceled because of an incident at his place, he would be inundated with complaints from those heartless ones tonight.

But he could only voice these complaints in his heart. How could he have the gall to utter them out loud?

The person was injured at his place. If the injuries were serious, shouldn’t they be allowed to rest at home?

However, Ye Xingbei said, “I’m really fine, there’s no need to cancel.”

She knew these people all had busy lives.

Being able to free up time for a gathering is no easy feat, she didn’t want to ruin their mood because of her.

“It’s okay,” Gu Junzhu said, “we’re all brothers, there are no outsiders.”

What else could Chu Dingbang say?

He could only reluctantly agree: “Yes, sister-in-law, your health is the most important.”

Being called ‘sister-in-law,’ Ye Xingbei felt a bit awkward. She gave him a smile but said nothing.

Chu Dingbang escorted Gu Junzhu out of the hotel and tapped the car window as Gu Junzhu got in.

Seeing the window roll down, he rested his arm on the roof and leaned over to say to Gu Junzhu: “Bro, if Senior Master Xiang gives you trouble over this incident, count me in!”

Regardless of the fact that this incident happened at their hotel, even if it hadn’t, they wouldn’t stand by if their Fifth Brother was in trouble.

They always had each other’s backs.

Gu Junzhu waved his hand at him, “We’ll be in touch.”

In the car, the young one had cried himself exhausted and was hugging Ye Xingbei’s neck. He closed his eyes in fatigue after a while.

Gu Junzhu didn’t go back to his office or the Xie family home. He took them directly to his villa.

He took Ye Xingbei and Xiao Shumiao straight to his bedroom, left Ye Xingbei to look after Xiao Shumiao, took Lingyue to the guest room himself, and instructed the butler to take good care of Lingyue.

Once Lingyue was settled, he returned to the bedroom. Xiao Shumiao had already fallen asleep.

The little guy was sleeping but still looked distressed, holding Ye Xingbei’s hand tight.

Hearing footsteps, Ye Xingbei lifted her gaze to Gu Junzhu, then looked back at the little guy, giving him a compassionate kiss on the face, “Xiao Shu was terrified, he’s never seen anything like this.”

“How has he not seen it?” Gu Junzhu gently stroked the little one’s tender face, “Last time when Xiang Bingzhi was attacking you with a knife, didn’t he see it?”

“I asked him about it, he said you were blocking him the whole time, he didn’t get to see clearly.” Ye Xingbei said with relief.

Then she lamented, “He saw it clearly today, his face went pale with fear. He madly bit the security guard’s hand, even drew blood.”

Gu Junzhu fondly ruffled the little one’s hair, a smirk curving his lips, “This kid… raising him hasn’t been in vain.”

He was so young yet he knew how to protect his mother.

When he grows up, he’ll sure be something!

“Indeed!” Ye Xingbei leaned over and kissed him, feeling love she didn’t know how to express.

Gu Junzhu patted her, “Go take a bath. I’ll get your medicine ready.”

Ye Xingbei chuckled shyly, “There’s no need. I was just grazed a little, it doesn’t hurt at all.”

Gu Junzhu held the medicine unnervingly, looking at her with a playful yet sober stare.

“Alright…” Ye Xingbei surrendered.

She got up to shower in the bathroom,

After returning to the bedroom, she found that Gu Junzhu had already showered. He was now dressed in his pajamas laying on his side, watching Xiao Shumiao with his head propped on one arm. His stunningly handsome face was filled with warmth and fondness.

Her heart instantly melted at the sight. She walked quietly towards the bed.

Seeing her approach, Gu Junzhu seized her hand, with one strong force, he pushed her down onto his lap and ripped off her bathrobe..
