Baby Chu didn’t buy it when he heard this and retorted, “No!”
“…”
“If you dare to rip Mommy to shreds, I… I will…”
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinglian asked provocatively, “You will…?”
“I’ll…” When Baby Chu saw Gu Jinglian’s fierce gaze, he instantly cowered. He gulped and said timidly,” I’ll settle the score with you when I grow up! Hmph! ”
“At least you know your place!”
He even knew that being a tiny fry, if they arm-wrestled, the man would only need to use a single finger to flatten him.
Gu Jinglian heavily ravaged his little face. At this point Butler Fu pushed open the door and walked in. When he saw that Baby Chu was still in Gu Jinglian’s arms, he immediately walked over to carry him.
“Baby Chu, it’s getting late. Time to rest!”
“No!” Baby Chu suddenly looked crestfallen. He sulked and pulled a long face. The mention of sleeping was as though someone was trying to kill him!
He was nestled cozily in Gu Jinglian’s arms, his hands and legs stretched out comfortably.
While Gu Jinglian was busy flipping through the dossier, he would cling on to the man, like a little hamster, chomping non-stop on his snacks while watching the hottest fantasy drama, “Fighter of the Destiny”.
He liked the pretty lady in it, and would be so happy when he saw her come on screen, that his eyes would be fixed on the screen, not blinking even once.
The moment he was asked to go to sleep, the little fella felt uncomfortable all over.
“I don’t want to sleep… It’s still early!”
Butler Fu glared at him. “It’s still early? It’s already past ten, you should sleep early! You can only grow taller if you sleep early!”
Butler Fu would use these words on other children and now he was trying to talk the boy round the same way.
Baby Chu did not buy it, however.
He continued to pester Gu Jinglian and fooled around in the man’s arms, unwilling to go to sleep.
For some reason, Butler Fu started to get nervous when he saw this!
In his memory, it seemed that other than the cat that Gu Jinglian had raised a few years ago, no other creature had ever dared to be so lawless and reckless in his arms!
Gu Jinglian had been kind to Baby Chu for the past few days. It was probably because there hadn’t been any annoying matters to attend to, and there hadn’t been any trouble in the business.
He had been rather patient with the boy’s reckless antics.
However, with Gu Jinglian’s indulgence, Baby Chu seemed to be getting a little arrogant.
Gu Jinglian treated the boy well probably because his paternal instincts had finally been awakened. Whichever way the man looked at this little fellow, the kid was pleasing to the eye.
“Let him watch a little longer!” Gu Jinglian said.
When Butler Fu heard this, he thought for a while before mustering his courage to say, “Master, a child shouldn’t have his own way all the time! You can’t spoil him like this!”
“Who spoils him!?” Gu Jinglian snorted arrogantly. “It doesn’t matter if he sleeps a little later!”
Butler Fu immediately explained, “The younger a child is, the more they should get their quality sleep. Otherwise, not only will they not grow tall, their physical fitness will also decrease very quickly!”
Gu Jinglian narrowed his eyes slightly. “Oh? Is that so?”
Butler Fu nodded gravely.
Gu Jinglian then said, “Well, quickly carry him off to bed!”
Butler Fu walked over and picked Baby Chu up. The boy reluctantly grabbed Gu Jinglian’s hand and begged pitifully, “Let me watch for a while more!”
