The little guy snuggled into her arms, his small arms wrapping around her waist, “I’m worried about mom, I don’t want to go to school.”

He looked up at Ye Xingbei, “Mom, don’t be mad, Xiao Shu can still rank first even without going to school! I’ll always be the top, if I can’t, mom can spank me!”

His gaze was clear and clean, filled with uneasiness and attachment.

Ye Xingbei’s heart softened to a mess, she rubbed his head and smiled, “Mom’s not mad! Xiao Shu is only five years old, it’s too early for him to be in grade three. All because of the unreliable little uncle, who sent Xiao Shu into primary school. Otherwise, Xiao Shu should be in kindergarten now. It’s okay if you can’t rank first. If you can’t keep up with the study, we will repeat the grade next year. Xiao Shu is still young, we have plenty of time.”

“No, Xiao Shu likes being in the third grade!” The little guy shook his head and clung tightly to Ye Xingbei, “Not only do I want to be in the third grade, but I also want to skip grades in the future! I want to graduate from university very early, find a job, earn a lot of money, and let mom enjoy life.”

“Little elf, who taught you this?” Ye Xingbei was amused, she rubbed his little nose, “School is also a kind of enjoyment, Mom doesn’t need Xiao Shu to earn money. Mom wants Xiao Shu to be like other kids, one step at a time, steady, secure, and grow up happily.”

The little guy snuggled his face into Ye Xingbei’s bosom, gently rubbing it, “As long as mom is with Xiao Shu, Xiao Shu will be very, very happy!”

Ye Xingbei hugged her son tight, bending over to kiss him on top of his head.

Although her son didn’t say it out loud, Ye Xingbei could tell, her son was scared last night.

At that time, she was pinned down to the ground by Xie Jinfei, she didn’t see when her son came in.

Did he see Xiang Bingzhi holding a dagger, viciously slashing at her?

If the little guy saw it, would it leave a psychological scar on him?

Everyone says Xiao Shu is smart, but no matter how smart, he’s still only a five-year-old child.

The mind of a child is always vulnerable.

Ye Xingbei dared not ask, for fear that in case the child didn’t see it, her asking might make the child more scared.

All she could do was silently resolve to spend more time with her son, comforting him, and making him forget about last night’s incident as soon as possible.

The door was gently pushed open, the little guy twisted his small body to look, his big eyes dewy from sleep instantly brightened, his little voice which was originally sullen, became crisp immediately, “Daddy!”

Gu Junzhu walked in with a smile, first ruffled the little guy’s hair, then looked at Ye Xingbei, “Awake?”

“Mmm.” Ye Xingbei nodded shyly, turning her face to the side, trying not to let Gu Junzhu see.

Though she just woke up, without the chance to look in the mirror, she could imagine how her bruised face from last night’s ordeal would still be visible.

Now that it’s daylight, everything can be seen in fine details.

She must look terrible now!

Gu Junzhu saw her shyness and chuckled, he ruffled the little guy’s hair again, “When you wake up, get out of bed and clean yourself, then come downstairs to eat with our son.”

Ye Xingbei was surprised, looking at her son, “Xiao Shu, haven’t you eaten breakfast yet?”

Upon awakening, she saw the little guy sitting neatly dressed, reading by her side, she thought he had already eaten.

Gu Junzhu patted the little guy on his head, “He insisted on not eating until you woke up, so he could eat with you..”
