Chapter 801: Finale (1)single-person

Hearing that, Qin Wange felt a little better.

It was good to know that she wasn't singing a single-person opera.

In her heart, Gu Qingmo was indeed a cruel person.

Not contacting her for years...

Qin Wange chatted a while with Gu Qingjiu. But afraid that Gu Qingmo would see her when he came to find Gu Qingjiu, she opted to return to her room.

The remaining people arrived at Penalan over the next few days.

Relatives from the Gu family were all gaping.

They would have never expected a commoner family like theirs to marry into a royal family.

Not only did Gu Qingjiu invite her relatives, but she also invited her old classmate, Zhong Xiaoxiao.

Ever since the students' gathering, they've been keeping in contact with each other, and they shared an amicable relationship.

She was the only one Gu Qingjiu invited.

For guests, if they did not have an invitation, they would not be able to enter the Penalan Royal Grounds.

The complicated feelings which welled up within Zhong Xiaoxiao upon knowing that Gu Qingjiu was marrying into a royal family were indescribable.

She would've never imagined Gu Qingjiu's partner to be of such background.

But Zhong Xiaoxiao did feel happy for Gu Qingjiu.

She would've never thought that the plain chubby girl back then would become this outstanding, so much so that they would have to look up to her.

Without mentioning that Gu Qingjiu became a princess consort, Zhong Xiaoxiao also found out that she was a popular and talented person amongst the country's military schools during the wedding.

And that she clinched a high glory for the country. She didn't know the specifics, but she knew that Gu Qingjiu's future in China wouldn't be bad.

She was already miles away from the paths her classmates took.

Thinking about those former classmates of hers, Zhong Xiaoxiao found it laughable.

Although Gu Qingjiu's marriage was not released to the media, Zhong Xiaoxiao could still snap some photos of the decorations at the place.

Such a great place. It was a place where numerous big shots would pass by every day.

Zhong Xiaoxiao casually took a few photos and sent them into the class chat, causing mayhem in the group.

It was too shocking to see those big shots since they were people who would only appear in magazines.

And Zhong Xiaoxiao mentioned that those were guests of Gu Qingjiu's wedding.

It was not hard to imagine what kind of family Gu Qingjiu married into.

Perhaps there was envy, jealousy, and even hatred, but they were no longer in contact with Gu Qingjiu.

It was all because Gu Qingjiu didn't bother keeping in touch with them.

Even if they were to ask Zhong Xiaoxiao for ways to contact Gu Qingjiu shamelessly, she wouldn't give them.

She clearly understood that it was no longer suitable for Gu Qingjiu to keep in contact with these people.

The day of the wedding drew closer. As the bridesmaid, Yu Bao'er enjoyed VIP treatment and had a private jet bring her to Penelan.

When she found out that the Chief Instructor was the prince of Penalan, she almost screeched out loud.

If it weren't in consideration of Gu Qingjiu's pregnancy, she would've tightly hugged her.

She bounced beside Gu Qingjiu. "Qingjiu, I've decided. I will stay by your side for this life. It is my fortune of three lives to have met you. You're insane!"

Huo Yingcheng snickered mockingly at her lack of knowledge as he looked at them.

Chapter 802: Finale 2

No matter how shocked people were, they could only accept this reality.

The things which ordinary people thought of as impossible were about to happen.

October 1st. Gu Qingjiu's wedding officially began.

Although the wedding was not open to the public, many attendees and media agencies from Penalan and other countries knew about it.

That a spectacular wedding would be held for the Penalan royal family.

They couldn't enter the venue, so there were no grounds for speculations as well.

Penalan held a grand banquet that evening. Gu Qingjiu wore a dreamy wedding gown as she met with many people she would've never thought she would get to meet.

And at the banquet, many people knew that the bride came from a commoner's family.

But in the eyes of these big shots, the bride was gracious, not any less than the members of noble families.

Magnanimous and befitting of her position.

And the Penalan prince, Lance, known to be cold-blooded, yet the adoration he held for his bride was evident.

He loved her.

But he was possessive as well. Even if it was a handshake, people were not allowed to hold hands with the princess consort for more than a second.

The second day of the wedding struck at the hearts of people like the wedding of the century.

It took place at the famous Lina Castle located in the capital of Penelan. The place was first built at the very beginnings of Penalan as a place to gather for the revolutionaries.

For the citizens of Penalan, the place held a different meaning.

For any royal wedding to be held there, it meant that the royal family member's partner was recognized and respected by the royals.

For the wedding of a princess consort from a commoner background to be held there, it implied something.

They even specially invited the Queen of the Morian royal family to be the officiator of the marriage.

Who was also the current Queen of Penalan.

It was evident that they saw the marriage with great importance.

A castle, the queen as the officiator, a dreamy wedding gown, big shots as guests, and a wedding of the century, they all cost a billion yuan.

Although the wedding was not publicized, it was to be recorded into the annals.

More people would know that a princess consort of a commoner background joined the royal family.

The wedding Helian Niancheng gave Gu Qingjiu was sufficient to let people know the importance of the princess consort and that her place in Penelan was not to be underestimated.

At the wedding, whether it was because of its luxurious setting or some other reason...

When they saw Gu Qingjiu walking down the aisle with Gu Hong in her hand as she walked towards Helian Niancheng, members of the Gu family couldn't help the hot tears welling in their eyes at this touching scene.

Qi Yuefeng couldn't hold back her tears in her happiness.

Even Yu Bao'er, who was their bridesmaid, was touched.

The ceremony ended. The wedding moved many people's emotions.

A perfect wedding, a dreamy scene, and to have a person who loved you as much as you loved them by your side was already an unimaginable dream for many.

It was a beautiful story and a fantasy for every girl.

*

In life, people yearned for happiness. Gu Qingjiu attained her happiness, a full stop to her story.

No matter how the future may be, her choices now were already in their best state.

Here's hoping for everyone to live their lives happily with their partners.

Chapter 803: Gu Xiaobao (1)

Gu Xiaobao was turning three this year.

He had three names.

First was his official name, Helian Qingcheng.

From what he knew, this name was given to him because of his father.

His father was a tyrant, adamant in his ways of wanting his name to be a combination of his own and his wife's.

Gu Xiaobao did not have many opinions, but he held many for his father.

Because he was too small, he couldn't hit his father.

Gu Xiaobao's English name was Heaviside. Only his grandparents in Penalan would call him with that name.

However, in China, Gu Xiaobao was Gu Xiaobao.

His name represented the adoration his family had for him.

Gu Xiaobao was a smart and respectful child, but was a little too mature for his age.

Furthermore, Gu Xiaobao favored women over men.

The person Gu Xiaobao loved the most was his mother because she was the only one who would play with him seriously.

Not like that cold-faced father. Not only was he not gentle to him, he even snatched mother away from him.

Since young, Gu Xiaobao knew that his status was different from others. His grandparents from Penelan were the same as him, but he was different from his grandparents in China.

But Gu Xiaobao adored his grandparents in China.

He grew up in Penalan under the care of his grandparents and the royal family.

Now that he was turning three, his mother felt that he was old enough to leave Penalan to stay in China for a while.

That was his mother's home country.

Gu Xiaobao liked the place because it was the place where his mother grew up.

It was Gu Xiaobao's first time going to China alone, but he wasn't going weak because of it.

Before he left, he said his farewells to his grandparents. Gu Xiaobao then left for China with his bodyguards.

At the airport, his grandparents from China came to fetch him.

The small Gu Xiaobao carried a tiny school bag. His first steps in this unfamiliar land and the different air caused him to scrunch up his tiny face.

Gu Xiaobao was too obedient. Cute wide eyes and exquisite features inherited from his father. It was evident that he would grow up to be a handsome man.

His blue eyes, which were as beautiful as gemstones and fair skin, snow white and soft, he inherited from his mother.

He was a boy, but he was so pretty that even girls couldn't compare.

He carried a small blue school bag with his favorite doll in it and was clad in a small camisole top and a pair of shorts.

They revealed two fair and short legs.

Frowning and surrounded by huge bodyguards, the great contrast melted people's hearts as they watched the scene.

"Oh gosh, who is that child? So cute!! So pretty!!"

"He's a boy. God, what a cute boy!!"

"How did he get eyes like that? They're like twice my size..."

"So adorable!! I really want to bring him home!"

"How is he so obedient!! How can he be so cute!!"

"He's a mixed blood, right? He's too cute. Look at the bodyguard behind him. That contrast is insanely cute!!"

Gu Xiaobao was already used to what these people were saying.

He had always been smart. Although his vocabulary was not strong, his English and Chinese were not bad. He could effortlessly switch between the two languages when conversing with his parents and grandfather.

Furthermore, words like adorable and cute were something he had heard countless times.

Chapter 804: Gu Xiaobao (2)

When Gu Xiaobao first entered the airport hall, people around him took out their cell phones to crazily snap photos of him.

The bodyguards at the side went up to stop some while the remaining protected him.

He was, after all, a prince. Although they had to be subtle about it, his safety was still their priority.

Gu Xiaobao already had the temperament of a general at this young age. He looked upon the crazy crowd fearlessly.

His doe-like eyes scanned the crowd for his grandparents.

Not seeing them, he played with his fingers unhappily. The cute pouting look melted the hearts of people.

"Aiyo, Xiaobao, Xiaobao!"

Suddenly, Gu Xiaobao heard his grandmother's voice.

He looked up only to see his grandmother, Qi Yuefeng, running up towards him.

A face full of smiles as she saw him.

Gu Xiaobao smiled at that, his smile capable of melting glaciers.

It caused people to be mesmerized.

Using his not too accurate Chinese, he said in an adorable tone, "Grandmother, slower, slower..."

With his short legs, he ran over to his grandmother.

"Aiyo, please be slower."

Qi Yuefeng's heart melted when she saw Gu Xiaobao, and he was even worried about her.

When Gu Xiaobao was in front of her, Qi Yuefeng scooped him up.

Gu Xiaobao held Qi Yuefeng's head and kissed her forehead in an exaggerated motion. "Grandmother, I missed you."

People around were envious enough when they saw Qi Yuefeng scoop Gu Xiaobao up. Now that they heard the child's obedient voice, they hated that they couldn't just snatch the child out of her hands.

If it weren't for the terrifying bodyguards around them, it would probably be hard for Qi Yuefeng to hug the child.

"This child. Didn't we just meet last week? How is your mouth so sweet?"

Spring blossomed in Qi Yuefeng's heart. She smiled from ear to ear as she pecked Gu Xiaobao's soft cheeks. "Let's go. I've prepared many delicious foods for you. Grandfather's waiting for you at home."

Gu Xiaobao frowned a little upon hearing that. "Grandfather's not working...?"

"You're coming over today, so he's not going to work. We will keep you company at home."

Gu Xiaobao tilted his head and turned to Qi Yuefeng with a radiant smile. "Grandmother keeping me company is enough. Grandfather should go to work and earn to feed grandmother!"

A giggle escaped Qi Yuefeng at his words. "Grandmother knows. Don't say that in front of him, or he will be sad. He misses you as well."

She carried Gu Xiaobao while his bodyguards followed behind. They always had to protect him.

When the pair finally left happily, many people were still discussing at the airport.

"Gosh, it's my first time seeing such a good-looking child."

"Did you get a photo?"

"I took one!"

"Too adorable!"

"Gosh, now when I see my child, I get worried... If the child is this good-looking, I wonder how good-looking his parents are."

"His family background is probably not average as well since he had bodyguards. So envious of this child."

"And he's so obedient! When he hugged his grandmother and called out, my heart melted."

"Aish, I want one for myself. If I had such a child, I would agree to whatever he does."

Society now was all about looks. With such a cute child, everyone wanted to bring him home.

Chapter 805: Gu Xiaobao (3)

When they arrived home, Gu Xiaobao finally saw his grandfather which he hadn't seen for a while.

Even though he said somethingt about grandfather at the airport, when he saw him, Gu Xiaobao obediently called out, "Grandfather."

Gu Hong was elated as he scooped Gu Xiaobao up and stuck his face to his. "Aish, our Xiaobao is so obedient. How long are you staying this time?"

Qi Yuefeng couldn't hide her smile. "Isn't Qingjiu leading some people at the squad? She said that she would get a break mid-month so we can bring Xiaobao there too. His father is here too. If Xiaobao is bored, we can bring him to find his father."

Gu Xiaobao pouted upon hearing that. "I don't want father, just grandfather and grandmother will do!"

Qi Yuefeng and Gu Hong exchanged a glance before they chuckled.

When Gu Qingjiu got pregnant before her wedding, they still felt that it was too sudden.

When the child was born, the two families, including the royal family of Penalan, doted on the child like crazy.

On the other hand, the child's parents did not pamper him as much and were stricter with his education.

Gu Xiaobao had been obedient and smart since young.

How could people not dote on such a child?

Because of Helian Niancheng's personality, he treated Xiaobao strictly from a young age.

He always had a stern face on, so Xiaobao didn't like being together with his father much.

But Xiaobao still loved his father. The two of them were similar in the sense that they were not used to overt expressions of affection for each other.

"Okay, we won't look for him. I made you a lot of delicious things. If you have anything else you want to it, I will buy it for you."

Gu Xiaobao smiled. "Everything which grandmother makes is nice."

"This child is always good with his words."

Qi Yuefeng's heart melted as she looked at him.

Ever since Gu Qingjiu got married, they moved from Dayi City to the capital to stay in her villa, making it easier to take care of her.

Her daughter and son-in-law were busy people. Her daughter would always be out for missions, so it was mostly the two of them.

Furthermore, when the child was born, feeling that the education at Penalan was better, they did not rush to bring their grandson back, opting to visit him there instead.

Although their in-laws were the royal family while they were of a common background, their interactions were pretty enjoyable.

Especially since the angel Xiaobao had always known the right things to say, the two families were tied closely together.

Qi Yuefeng took Gu Xiaobao for a meal. After a while, her daughter called back.

"Qingjiu? Mm, Xiaobao reached. He's eating now."

Hearing that it was his mother, his eyes shone and plopped onto his grandmother as he called out, "Mom, mom..."

A crisp voice sounded from the phone, a rare adoration in her tone. "Xiaobao, are you eating obediently?"

"I am~~"

Gu Xiaobao always talked more cutely with his mother. Qi Yuefeng smiled as she switched the call to a video call for the two of them.

Holding onto a phone bigger than his hands, Gu Xiaobao sat on the sofa as he talked to his mother.

Although the video appeared a little blurry, Gu Qingjiu's face appeared no different.

Instead, her aura seemed to become stronger because of her training in the army. Looking at Gu Xiaobao, her smile was like the moon. Gu Xiaobao and her seemed to be from the same mold.

"Hehe~"

Gu Xiaobao revealed the same smile as his mother. Tilting his head, he revealed his white teeth, looking a little silly, making Gu Qingjiu giggle.

Chapter 806: Gu Xiaobao (4)

"Mm, they are video calling."

When Gu Xiaobao and Gu Qingjiu were chatting, someone's call probably didn't get through, so he called Gu Hong.

The said person was Helian Niancheng.

After Gu Hong said that Gu Qingjiu and Gu Xiaobao were on a call, Gu Qingjiu probably received some message on her end.

Gu Xiaobao was originally interacting sweetly with his mother when she suddenly said, "Xiaobao, your dad wants to video call as well."

Gu Xiaobao was speechless.

His smile vanished immediately.

"Puhahaha." Seeing the smile leave Gu Xiaobao's face, Gu Qingjiu couldn't help but tease, "Xiaobao, when your dad wants to have a video call with you, don't be like this. He will get angry."

"Hmph!"

Gu Xiaobao frowned. "I'm angry too!"

He was enjoying his time with his mother, so why did his father have to interrupt.

But within seconds, the screen, which only had Gu Qingjiu's face, split into two, revealing a handsome face.

Even if it was a camera of lower resolution, it couldn't hide his great looks.

Seeing Gu Xiaobao and his wife, who he missed dearly, Helian Niancheng's expression softened. He looked at Gu Qingjiu and asked gently, "How are you recently?"

Gu Qingjiu smiled as she nodded. "Pretty great. Hubby, what about you?"

"Mm, I am doing pretty..."

"Your son is here as well!"

Not to be outdone, Gu Xiaobao faced the camera as he raised his tiny fist to emphasize his presence.

When the couple showered each other with affection, they tend to forget about their son's existence.

As if only noticing his son, Helian Niancheng asked casually, "Son, what have you been doing?"

His tone was so flippant that even a three-year-old like Gu Xiaobao could tell that he was being brushed off.

Gu Xiaobao slowly uttered a meaningful sentence pointedly, "I was originally having a happy conversation with your wife..."

Was, originally, happy.

The three words caused Helian Niancheng to raise his brows.

Gu Qingjiu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Gu Xiaobao was a child with his own mischief. He was only three, but he knew more than other children, and his words held his own opinions well.

It often made Gu Qingjiu laugh.

Helian Niancheng. "Okay, eat your food obediently. What is a three-year-old child like you playing with a cell phone during meal time? I still have things to say to your mother."

Gu Xiaobao was speechless.

????

Helian Niancheng was good at wielding his power as a father during these times and got Gu Qingjiu to cut off her call with Gu Xiaobao.

Seeing the video call stop, Gu Xiaobao stomped on the sofa in frustration.

"Bad father, bad father!!"

Gu Xiaobao was so angry that tears almost fell.

Qi Yuefeng quickly came over to coax him. "Okay, be good, Xiaobao. Let's eat first. Your parents have things to discuss."

Seeing his grandmother call him, Gu Xiaobao wiped at the tears in his eyes and replied in a pitiful soft tone, "Okay, Xiaobao will eat."

Qi Yuefeng's heart couldn't take it when she heard that voice of his. She stood from her moral point of view as she chided, "This Niancheng is really... It's rare for Xiaobao to see his mother. How could he interrupt them..."

As a man, Gu Hong was calmer.

He lowered his head to look at Gu Xiaobao. As expected, there wasn't much sadness on his face, and a pleased expression was present instead.

What a scheming child.

Chapter 807: Gu Xiaobao (5)

Gu Xiaobao had always wanted a younger sister.

But mom was always too busy, so there wasn't much time.

Mom had always soothed him by saying that she would give him a younger sister when he was older and let him bring her around.

Gu Xiaobao had always been looking forward to it.

Gu Xiaobao always liked his younger sister, so he always preferred girls over guys.

For example, in the afternoon, Gu Xiaobao watched an animation he liked on the television.

Qi Yuefeng walked over. "Xiaobao, I want to watch television. Can I switch channels?"

Gu Xiaobao raised his head and passed the remote control obediently to her. "Okay, here you go, grandmother."

"Mm, what an obedient child. Come, let's watch together."

Gu Xiaobao ended up lying in Qi Yuefeng's embrace obediently as they watched the television.

During the night, when Gu Xiaobao watched an animation on the television once again, Gu Hong walked over. "Xiaobao, I want to watch the news."

Silence.

Gu Hong repeated patiently, "Xiaobao, I want to watch the news."

Silence.

Gu Hong became angry. "Helian Qingcheng!"

Gu Xiaobao raised his head slowly. Looking at Gu Hong, he chided in a sweet voice, "Grandfather, you're already so old. Why would you fight over the television with your grandson?"

Gu Hong was speechless.

He was so angry he laughed.

In the end, Gu Xiaobao couldn't win over the stronger power, and so Qi Yuefeng carried him to sleep.

A problem arose on Gu Xiaobao's first night with the Gu family.

He probably wasn't used to it since it was his first time coming to China.

Adding that to the fact he missed his mother, Gu Xiaobao woke up in the middle of the night.

He started to wipe at his tears.

He didn't know why. He was just upset because he missed his parents.

The last time he saw mom was already half a month ago.

The Gu Xiaobao, who everyone doted on, was weeping secretly in the middle of the night.

Not too long later, sensing something off, Gu Hong woke up. Seeing that his grandfather woke up, he shrank and pretended to be asleep.

But Gu Hong still saw.

Gu Xiaobao slept in a cradle. Gu Hong walked over and looked at Gu Xiaobao, who was pretending to sleep. He reached out and caressed Gu Xiaobao's face.

It was wet.

Gu Hong bent down and scooped Gu Xiaobao up. He asked softly, "Xiaobao, why are you crying? Did you miss your mom?"

Gu Xiaobao squeezed into the embrace as tears fell silently.

He was not still not used to it since it was his first time leaving Penalan for China.

Qi Yuefeng played with Gu Xiaobao the entire day, so she was deep in sleep. Gu Hong brought Gu Xiaobao out.

Only when Gu Hong closed the bedroom door did Gu Xiaobao start to sob softly. He choked out, "I miss mom and dad."

Even if he disliked his dad, when he missed them, he would think of him too.

Gu Hong was initially deep in sleep, so he was still not fully awake. With Gu Xiaobao in his arms, he sat on the sofa and called Gu Qingjiu.

Gu Qingjiu's cell phone was switched off.

She was probably somewhere where she couldn't answer phones in the middle of the night.

Gu Hong looked at the time. It was two in the morning.

He had no idea if Helian Niancheng was asleep at this time.

Gu Hong called, and within a few seconds, Helian Niancheng answered. "Hello, Dad?"

A low but clear voice. He was still busy and had yet to sleep.

Gu Hong lowered his voice. "Niancheng, have you slept? Xiaobao is looking for you."

After speaking, he handed the cell phone to Gu Xiaobao.

Gu Xiaobao took the cell phone with a bitter face. Helian Niancheng looked at the time and said, "Why are you not sleeping at this time? You even woke grandfather."

But when Gu Xiaobao called out 'Dad' in a sobbing voice, Helian Niancheng fell silent.

Chapter 808: Gu Xiaobao (6)

"What's the matter?"

Gu Xiaobao got Gu Hong to change it to a video call. When the screen lit out, Helian Niancheng could see Gu Xiaobao's tear-stained face.

Gu Xiaobao saw that his father was still in his office.

After so many years, he was already used to it. He asked pitifully, "Dad, you're still busy?"

"Mm, I am."

Helian Niancheng then asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Xiaobao held the cell phone. Knowing that Gu Xiaobao would be chatting with Helian Niancheng for a while, Gu Hong returned to the room to rest.

Gu Xiaobao had a miserable look on. He laid on the sofa as he stared at his father in the video. "Dad, I miss mom."

This young child's soft voice was full of pitiable misery.

It melted hearts.

Helian Niancheng sighed from the screen. Putting the documents on hand down temporarily, he looked at the screen. "Do you miss her a lot?"

Gu Xiaobao nodded. "Yes."

"Come over tomorrow. I'll be with you."

Hearing that, Gu Xiaobao agreed but with reluctance, "Okay."

After hanging up, he returned to the bedroom and climbed into his cradle before falling asleep soundly.

On the second morning, Gu Hong sent Gu Xiaobao to Helian Niancheng's office.

In consideration of Gu Qingjiu, who was in the army, Helian Niancheng shifted his focus to China and started to dabble in business.

If he remained as a major-general in Penelan, who knew how long he wouldn't be able to meet Gu Qingjiu.

It was why Helian Niancheng had his own business and why he was busy when Gu Qingjiu was not around.

It was the first time Gu Xiaobao had been to Helian Niancheng's office. He carried his small bag. Helian Niancheng's secretary came down personally to pick him up, and his attitude was respectful.

When the secretary brought him up, the people who saw him were all speculating.

"Oh gosh, that child is so cute. Whose child is he!?"

"Could he be the CEO's son? I saw Secretary Lin pick him up personally."

"I heard that the CEO got married early, and his son is three years old..."

"The CEO is married??? My gosh, then there's no hope for me!!"

"Enough of that. With how you are, you can't even go up to the CEO's office. What's more to say about you catching his attention..."

Speculations spurred on. Meanwhile, Gu Xiaobao arrived at the floor on which Helian Niancheng's office was located.

The vast office on the top floor of the building was Helian Niancheng's private office. There was even a bedroom for him to rest when he was too busy to go back.

Helian Niancheng was currently in a meeting. Gu Xiaobao could see him clearly through the glass door.

Many people were listening to Helian Niancheng attentively.

Seeing that Helian Niancheng was inside, his eyes shone. Ignoring the secretary who was trying to stop him, he ran in.

"Dad!"

Gu Xiaobao's voice broke the silence of the meeting room. Everyone looked to the door in shock. Helian Niancheng's expression was indifferent, and no one could tell if he was angry.

Gu Xiaobao dashed over and climbed up Helian Niancheng. With a single hand, Helian Niancheng pulled Gu Xiaobao onto his thigh while his other hand held the report. "Continue with the report."

The cold voice caused the gaping people in the meeting room to recover.

And they continued with the meeting.

The turmoil was roaring in their hearts.

They knew that this young CEO was married, but they didn't expect his child to be this big.

And he hated being interrupted during his meetings. This child dashed straight in, and he didn't even say a single thing.

What was more... Wasn't this child too good-looking!!

He inherited the CEO's good looks entirely.

Chapter 809: Gu Xiaobao (7)

"Not used to being in China for the first time?"

After the meeting, Helian Niancheng chased the curious glances out. He carried Gu Xiaobao into his office and placed him on the sofa.

"Mm~~ Carry!"

Gu Xiaobao started to act cutely the moment he was put down, running straight at Helian Niancheng.

Probably because of the unfamiliar environment, Gu Xiaobao, who disliked his father started sticking to him.

Helian Niancheng frowned slightly but did not stop Gu Xiaobao and carried him up with a single arm.

He used the office phone on the table and called his secretary. "Secretary Lin, get someone to buy some snacks which kids like."

"I understand, Boss."

Helian Niancheng turned and looked at Gu Xiaobao. Those soft cheeks were a shadow of his mother's.

Helian Niancheng, who originally wanted to reprimand him, couldn't in the end. "Did you miss your mother a lot?"

Gu Xiaobao snuggled into Helian Niancheng's embrace and nodded hard. His fair face revealed a trace of misery as he pouted.

"I miss her too."

Helian Niancheng said in a low voice, "Your mother's busy recently. She will come back to see you in a while. If you're not used to it, you can stay with me for the time."

"Then Dad, can you bring me to the amusement park?"

Gu Xiaobao raised his head and looked at him.

Helian Niancheng frowned slightly. "How old are you already, and you still like that?"

"Xiaobao is only turning three this year!"

Gu Xiaobao was dissatisfied. "It's normal for children to like going to the amusement park."

After thinking for a bit, Helian Niancheng eventually agreed. "I will accompany you when I have the time."

"Okay!"

Gu Xiaobao agreed obediently.

He got out of the embrace. Removing his shoes, he hopped around on the sofa.

Seeing that he was happy to play by himself, Helian Niancheng went back to his desk and busied himself with his work.

Not too long later, the secretary brought in a vast array of snacks. Since he didn't know what this young master liked, he simply picked a few suitable ones.

Gu Xiaobao didn't fancy snacks, but there wasn't much to do to burn time. His parents didn't allow him to play with cell phones as well.

He was too young, so it was better for him not to contact these things because of the radiation.

Gu Xiaobao broke a small piece of chocolate. The bar of chocolate was bigger than his entire face. After spending so much effort, he only managed to nibble at the corner, and the edges of his mouth became dirty.

Gu Xiaobao didn't mind. As he was nibbling happily, he suddenly recalled something and asked cheerfully, "Dad, when are you and mom going to give me a younger sister?"

Helian Niancheng placed the pen down as his lips curled up. "That's a great idea, son. I will try to get your mom to give you a younger sister soon."

"It's a promise then. My sister will play with me, so she will keep me company even when the two of you are not at home."

The 'not at home' which his son mentioned caused a strange feeling to stir within Helian Niancheng. "Don't the sisters and brothers at the royal family keep you company?"

"No, Xiaobao wants a younger sister. A younger sister from Dad and Mom."

Gu Xiaobao said it straightforwardly.

At this time, a slender beauty walked into the office.

Gu Xiaobao stared at her.

She brought documents in as she looked at Helian Niancheng unblinkingly. After putting down the documents, her voice seemed to be carefully intonated as she spoke gently, "Boss, this is the report for the five companies for the last quarter. Please have a look."

Chapter 810: Gu Xiaobao (8)

Helian Niancheng would always appear cold in front of outsiders. Seeing that, he simply nodded indifferently. "Okay. I will get Secretary Lin to bring it down after I signed."

"On your way, get the head of the development department to see me."

"I understand, Boss."

Even if this man's tone was always cold and emotionless, even if it won't give anyone warmth...

Hearing him talk so much still made the beauty feel happy.

She knew her boss's temperament and knew that she had to leave at once.

She could only leave longingly. From the corner of her eye, she saw Gu Xiaobao and felt a piercing pain in her heart.

Gu Xiaobao still had bits of chocolate at the side of his mouth, which made the beauty think that the child was sloppy.

Such a person was the boss's child. She didn't know how his mother taught him. Filthy!

Gu Xiaobao inherited his mother's intuitive senses. At a single glance, he could tell that this person didn't like him.

He smiled sweetly. "Good afternoon, Auntie."

Although Gu Xiaobao's face was a little dirty, it was undeniable that he had a cute face.

Even if she was dissatisfied, the moment he smiled, the beauty thought she saw a little angel sent down from the heavens.

But that auntie...

Auntie!

She was only in her twenties.

But since the child called out to her, it meant that she had more time.

She smiled, revealing her most pleasant and perfect smile. "Hello, my little treasure."

Gu Xiaobao was initially smiling, but it fell the moment he heard that. "Who's your little treasure?"

The beauty was speechless.

Helian Niancheng, who was behind, looked at the scene with deep eyes. His lips curled up as he beckoned Gu Xiaobao. "Xiaobao, come over. Wipe your mouth."

Gu Xiaobao jumped off the sofa and bounced over without even wearing his shoes.

The beauty stood there awkwardly.

Helian Niancheng took out a tissue and waved his hand.

He made it clear.

The beauty lowered her head, knowing that her boss would get angry if she didn't leave.

After she had left, just as Helian Niancheng was about to wipe Gu Xiaobao's mouth, he suddenly lowered his head, stuck his mouth onto Helian Niancheng's clothes, and vigorously wiped it clean using his clothes.

Helian Niancheng was speechless.

Even if his clothes were dark-colored, for a person who was a clean freak, this was unacceptable!

But this was his son. After cleaning his mouth, he even looked up at Helian Niancheng with an innocent look.

Helian Niancheng resisted the urge to beat his son up as his expression darkened. "Helian Qingcheng, when you were in Penalan, was this the royal etiquette your grandparents taught you?"

"What royal etiquette? We are in China!"

Gu Xiaobao puffed up. "That auntie who was trying to flirt with you. Is she as pretty as mom?"

Helian Niancheng took off his coat and got Secretary Lin to bring a new coat in. His expression was terrible. "How can she possibly be as beautiful as your mother? But aren't you acting a little too impudent?"

He never gave these people hope. Most importantly, he couldn't control other people's thoughts of him.

Gu Xiaobao was being unreasonable.

"Wah!"

Secretary Lin walked in only to see the angelic son of his CEO ranting. "Lance, wait on. Not only will I tell my grandparents in Penelan, but I will also tell my grandparents in China, Mom, godmother, godfather, and my teacher. I will get you reprimanded for your morals!!"

Secretary Lin was speechless.

What insanity. He was only three and could say that. The CEO's son was a monster.
