Ling Tianyou looked at Gu Ningyue’s pretty face, couldn’t help but reach out to pinch her cheek again, but this ti Ning Yue caught the motion out of the corner of her eye and imdiately stepped away: "Are you trying to pinch my face again?"
Ling Tianyou smiled faintly, firmly denying it: "No, you’re seeing things!"
Gu Ningyue stared into Ling Tianyou’s eyes and said, "You’re doing it, I can tell!"
Ling Tianyou shrugged: "Alright! I did, but who can testify? Without a witness, it didn’t happen."
Gu Ningyue: "..." Since when did this guy beco such a rascal? She couldn’t understand it.
Ling Tianyou watched Gu Ningyue’s expressionless face, though her eyes were extrely complicated, and a smile curved at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing her at a loss for words was rather amusing.
Because Ling Tianyou returned slightly later than planned today, their chat led them to the cusp of noon at 11 o’clock.
Gu Ningyue decided to turn to a nearby servant and said, "Go ask Aunt Zhang how much longer until the al is ready? I’m feeling a bit hungry."
The servant nodded and went into the kitchen, returning shortly to say, "Young Madam, President Ling, it will be ready soon; it’s just about to be served."
Gu Ningyue stood up and told Ji Qianqian next to her, "Qianqian, are you hungry? Lunchti is here!"
Ji Qianqian nodded, "I’m hungry!"
Gu Ningyue chuckled, "Let’s go, let’s sit down. We can eat soon!"
Ji Qianqian responded and turned to Ling Tianyou, "Sister, isn’t Uncle going to eat?"
Gu Ningyue also glanced at Ling Tianyou, who then got up and accompanied Gu Ningyue to the dining table.
After a short wait, the servant laid out the prepared dishes on the table.
Probably because an extra person was present, the kitchen prepared more food.
One of the dishes was sothing Ji Qianqian said she liked yesterday but hadn’t gotten to eat; it was clear she was very pleased.
Ji Qianqian’s smiling expression was beautiful, especially while eating; the satisfaction on her face was enough to make others feel hungry, too.
Seeing this, Gu Ningyue suddenly had an idea.
If her future child was a daughter and was as pretty and cute as Ji Qianqian, that wouldn’t be too bad.
The thought surprised her.
What in the world am I thinking? Is having a child sothing I can casually desire?
No, definitely not!
Just thinking of the pain of childbirth, even for an angel, imdiately dismissed the notion.
"What’s wrong? Why does your face look like that?" Ling Tianyou asked when he saw Gu Ningyue’s indescribable expression.
Gu Ningyue shook her head, "Nothing, just so unpleasant thoughts crossed my mind."
Ling Tianyou assud Gu Ningyue was thinking about taking Jin Chenglong to et Shangguan Wuyue tomorrow and reassured her, "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure the people I bring handle Jin Chenglong so he won’t cause any trouble."
Gu Ningyue nodded, not arguing with his misunderstanding, letting it continue: "Hmm, I know. With you around, I’m at ease."
Ling Tianyou chuckled, looking at Gu Ningyue with a aningful glance: "The way you say that, it’s as if I’m your little follower."
Gu Ningyue was taken aback, picked up a piece of bamboo shoot, and said, "Who in City A would dare make Master Ling their follower? Am I crazy?"
Ling Tianyou looked at Gu Ningyue and said, "If you want, I can be your follower for a day."
Gu Ningyue skeptically examined Ling Tianyou from top to bottom: "No thanks, the cost might be too much for to bear."
Having Ling Tianyou as her follower for a day, obeying her commands, would likely result in her getting "eaten clean" by him afterward.
This was a risk she couldn’t afford.
Ji Qianqian watched the two of them and suddenly giggled.
Both Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou turned their gaze to Ji Qianqian and simultaneously asked, "Qianqian, why are you laughing?"
Ji Qianqian looked at them and said, "Sister, you two look like a couple bickering on TV!"
Gu Ningyue was startled: " and him? Flirting?"
Ji Qianqian nodded earnestly, "Exactly the sa."
Ling Tianyou gave Gu Ningyue a glance and said with aning, "Try not to let Ji Qianqian watch those romance dramas, it’ll spoil the kids."
Gu Ningyue looked wronged, "Lately, I’ve only shown Qianqian ani or cartoons, no romance dramas."
Ji Qianqian chid in upon hearing this, "It was Sister Qingqing who showed them to at ho, not Sister Ning Yue."
Gu Ningyue conveyed, "See! I told you it wasn’t teaching her."
Ling Tianyou looked at Ji Qianqian and asked, "Why did Sister Qingqing let you watch those shows? Can you understand them?"
Ji Qianqian sipped her glass of milk: "At first, I didn’t understand much, but after watching a lot, I got it. Sister Qingqing said no man is good, and she’s afraid I’ll be tricked in the future, so watching more helps accumulate experience!"
"Ahem..." Gu Ningyue nearly choked on Ji Qianqian’s words, "I think the next ti we et, I should have a good chat with your sister."
Ji Qianqian looked at Gu Ningyue in confusion, unaware of what she intended to discuss with her.
Ling Tianyou contemplated and said to Gu Ningyue, "No need! Who knows, Qianqian might recover soon."
Ji Qianqian asked, "Uncle, recover from what? Why can’t Qianqian understand what everyone is saying lately?"
All the doctors say there’s nothing wrong with her body, so why do Sister Ning Yue and Sister Qingqing keep thinking she’s ill?
Especially since coming to Sister Ning Yue’s place, it’s always talk about recovering, but recovering from what? Ji Qianqian didn’t understand.
Gu Ningyue looked at Ji Qianqian and said, "It’s nothing, Qianqian, just eat well. When you’re done, sister will tell you a story."
Fortunately, Ji Qianqian was obedient and didn’t ask further.
After the al, Gu Ningyue’s phone suddenly rang, it was Lu Qingqing calling: "Has Qianqian been fine these days? Haven’t caused you and President Ling any trouble, right?"
Gu Ningyue shook her head, looking at Ji Qianqian still seated at the table: "She’s always been well-behaved."
Lu Qingqing responded, "That’s good, as long as there’s no trouble. See you tomorrow, then?"
Gu Ningyue smiled softly, "Alright, see you tomorrow."
Gu Ningyue then handed the phone to Ji Qianqian, and after a few words with Lu Qingqing, Ji Qianqian seed even more delighted than she had at the water park.
Observing from the side, Gu Ningyue beca increasingly curious about the relationship between the two.
After hanging up, Ji Qianqian returned the phone to Gu Ningyue and obediently went back to her bedroom.
