Chapter 138: Honey, you're getting more and more petty
iu Yiyin last night, was he He came back so early, it must have been Old Master Jun who ordered him.The Jun family's grand and opulent hall boasts a magnificent eight-meter-high crystal chandelier tha...At seven o'clock in the morning, Qiao Baoer was woken up by Fang Da Ma.
It's best not to sleep in right now. Old Master Jun and Jiang Meili are both at the Jun Residence, so if you do sleep in, it might lead to gossip and trouble, which wouldn't be good for your image.
"I'll be more careful in the future."
Qiao Bao'er was very grateful for Grandma Fang's reminder, after all, since the elders were back, she couldn't act out of line.
Rushed into the bathroom to wash up quickly, changed clothes, and immediately hurried to the main house...
"Xiaoxue, how did you sleep last night"
Qiao Bao'er stopped at the door, listening to the faint sounds coming from inside. Suddenly, her mood became complicated.
Xia Chui Xue spent the night at the Jun family's last night...
Qiao Baoer knew she shouldn't overthink it. After all, the Jun family had so many guest rooms. It was just that the Jun family's rules didn't seem to like having outsiders stay overnight.
Does Xia Chuixue count as an outsider
"Xiaoxue, you're not an outsider, so why don't you just stay at the Jun family from now on You wouldn't have to bother finding a place to live, and Zhiyan and I like you too..." This was Jiang Meili's voice. She seemed in a good mood.
Xia Chui Xue was a little embarrassed and softly refused, "Grandfather has rules, it's inconvenient for me to stay."
Jiang Meili said in a beautiful and confident tone, "You don't have to worry about that. Zhi Mu promised to take good care of you. Just tell him, it will be fine..."
The Lord Shepherd promised to take good care of her...
"Madam."
Suddenly a maidservant passing by the door called out.
The two women talking in the living room immediately turned to look at Qiao Bao'er. Suddenly, everyone looked at each other, their faces a little embarrassed.
"What upbringing is this, eavesdropping like that..." Jiang Meili's voice immediately turned cold, her eyes looking at them unfavorably, "The Qiao family raised such a daughter."
Qiao Bao'er's face was tense, wanting to retort, but she bit her lip and held back.
They were chatting so loudly that it made her sound like a rude eavesdropper.
It seemed like every time she ran into Jiang Meili, the latter never wore a good expression. Qiao Baier lowered her head and hesitated at the doorstep, seeming rather unwilling to enter.
"Bao'er, come over quickly and get ready for breakfast."
Xia Chui Xue greeted her with her habitual smile.
"What are you doing here"
At that moment, a familiar figure quickened their pace and approached from behind.
Jun's hand naturally circled around her waist, and he lowered his gaze to see her puffed-up cheeks and unhappy expression. "Woke up from a good sleep, still grumpy"
She raised her eyes to glance at the man beside her, blaming him for her displeasure. In a low voice, she grumbled, "It's all your fault. Why didn't you wake me up when you got up"
Junzhi Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, this woman was truly unhappy.
"It's time to eat."
Master Jun, walking slowly from behind, also entered the main house dining room. Everyone sat down politely.
As last night, the atmosphere at the dinner table was solemn. Everyone spoke little, and even eating was done cautiously, afraid to make too much noise.
However, Qiao Baoer noticed that the old man's mood was much better this morning, at least not as tense as yesterday.
According to Auntie Fang, Junzhi Mu was called by his grandfather early this morning to go to Beiwuan.
These grandfather and grandson must be discussing the company. Previously, someone spread rumors about Jun Zhimu's car accident when he was seriously injured. The grandfather has always been concerned about this matter. However, Qiao Baoer thinks that what the old man cares most about is not the company, but Jun Zhimu.
What has Grandpa been up to in Seattle for over a month
She still wanted to know, pondering in her mind, suddenly Old Master Jun glanced at her. This scared Qiao Baor'er and she immediately lowered her head, quickly scooping up porridge with the spoon and stuffing it into her mouth.
"Eat slowly."
The man beside her frowned slightly and handed her a clean handkerchief.
Qiao Bao'er's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she didn't even dare to raise her head. She silently took it and casually wiped the corner of her lips.
"What, are you afraid of grandpa"
Jun's gaze fell upon her, taking in her at a glance. He could easily see through her thoughts; her feelings were practically written all over her face.
Qiao Bao'er heard him ask this, and her heart became even more flustered. "No."
Turning his head, he casually grabbed a glass of milk, pretending to be very thirsty. He raised his hand and gulped it down, ignoring him as if he didn't exist.
"Bao'er, there's still some milk left. Would you like some"
Across from her, Xia Chuixue saw that she had finished half her cup of tea. Smiling, she pushed her own glass of milk towards her.
She looked at the woman across from her, dressed sharply. To be honest, Qiao Baoer didn't really want to take the thing she was offering. She smiled and said, "Thank you, I've suddenly developed a fondness for milk lately." She came up with a flimsy excuse.
"Joe, don't choke my son... drink it slower."
Jun Zhi Mu glared at her with displeasure, picked up another clean handkerchief, leaned close to her lips, and whispered, "This woman isn't even acting professionally."
"What's going on"
After finishing her breakfast, Qiao Bao'er left the table and went to the lotus pond. She leaned against the railing, her mood heavy as she looked at the vibrant lotus flowers in full bloom.
Behind her was that familiar, deep voice. Junzhi Mu strode towards her.
"It's nothing."
She didn't look back, mumbling a response.
"Qiaoba'er…" He twisted her around with both hands, looking at her directly. This woman clearly had her head hung low and was sullen. "The doctor said a mother's mood can affect the fetus's intelligence..."
"I also feel like my IQ isn't enough."
She rarely argued back, leaning forward so her forehead bumped against his chest. She was a bit dejected, “Junzhi Mu, I feel like... I might really be quite stupid.”
This made him chuckle.
"What are you laughing at I'm being serious," she said, looking up at him with a pout.
Yesterday, Grandpa and the others suddenly returned to the country. Grandpa called Junzhimu for a talk, and she knew it must be something important. Junzhimu was unwilling to tell her, so she naturally asked Xia Chuxue.
Xia Chui Xue naturally retorted yesterday.
This statement doesn't mean anything, but Xia Chui Xue said it, she was naturally hit hard. Implied wasn't it that Jun Zhi Mu didn't tell her, and Xia Chui Xue was very surprised
"She didn't even know herself... then why use that tone" She murmured softly, her face buried in Junzhi Mu's chest.
Last night, I heard it clearly at the foot of the stairs. Xia Chuxue questioned Jun Zhumu, asking what her grandpa had talked to him about. Doesn't this just prove that she, Xia Chuxue, doesn't know anything either
"What's wrong"
Jun Zhimu didn't think much of it. Instead, he found the woman throwing herself into his arms early in the morning and even bumping her forehead against his chest rather amusing.
"As your shepherd, I feel like I'm becoming more and more petty."
She looked depressed. After thinking for a moment, Xia Chuixue probably didn't mean it, and she wasn't the type to be jealous out of the blue. "Oh well, I guess my son has rubbed off on me."
Listening to her unreasonably blaming the son for everything, Junzhi Mu smiled and stroked her long hair, "Being cooped up at home is so boring... There's a company welcome party with fireworks tonight, want to go"We are men. Men are not afraid of hunger."What does A man is not afraid of hunger, isn't he a man if he gets hungry!Lu Qinan was heartbroken. He was so young, yet so treacherous."Pei Haoran, this is t...
