That man was probably still in the study at this hour.
He always rested late, it would be maybe 3 am or 4 am before he retired to bed. But as soon as dawn broke, he’d wake up, work all morning before he’d nap for another three hours during his lunch break. Damn the routine.
This was an opportunity!
If she was not wrong, Baby Chu was probably sleeping soundly on his bed!
Chu He approached the door and listened carefully to the sounds in the room. She could vaguely hear the sound of someone snoring.
It wasn’t heavy, but it wasn’t light. It was the sound of the sort of light respite that belonged to a child.
This snoring sound was extremely familiar to Chu He!
Baby Chu!
It’s Baby Chu!
He was in this room!
Chu He was so excited that her eyes reddened at once. She grabbed the door handle and twisted it gently. The room was not locked. She entered swiftly and locked the door behind her.
The room was huge. It was the master bedroom, a Chinese-style courtyard suite.
The entire Gu residence was decorated in Chinese style. Even the bedroom was characteristically Chinese in style.
Chu He looked around. The furnishings in the room were slightly different from what she remembered.
Indeed, a person could undergo big changes in five years.
She walked through the arched doorway and slowly made her way into the master bedroom. On the large bed, Baby Chu’s limbs were stretched wide open. He was sleeping comfortably. The weather had been rather cold these past two days, and he had the habit of kicking off his blanket in the middle of the night. Perhaps it was because he had caught a slight cold doing this, but when he slept soundly, his tiny nostrils were filled with snot bubbles!
Chu He, who was initially tense from being on the alert, could not help breaking out in laughter at this scene!
This chap!
How could he sleep so peacefully?!
At the thought of this, she felt a little off kilter!
In order to find him, she had been obsessed with recovering as soon as possible. Now that she had risked all sorts of dangers to sneak into the Gu family residence, this little fellow was actually sleeping so comfortably and soundly here!
But at least, there was one thing that comforted her – she was certain that this stubborn little fellow had not suffered much in the Gu family!
She had originally thought that, being the noisy boy he was, he’d surely get into trouble if he made Gu Jinglian uncomfortable.
However, she did not expect Gu Jinglian to have been able to tolerate this guy.
He must have caused a lot of trouble at the Gu family residence these few days!
To think that Gu Jinglian had not ‘expelled’ him?
Chu He was flabbergasted.
She walked over and patted his chubby cheeks. She made a little sound and said in a low voice, “Baby Chu!”
“Woo…” Chu Xiaobao was still immersed in his beautiful dream. Now that he was disturbed, he squinted his eyes and immediately reached out to pat her hand. He mumbled,” Don’t make so much noise…”
“Stinky Baby Chu!”
Chu He was a little angry. She couldn’t resist poking at his cheek to try to wake him up.
It seemed too rough a method to wake him, she felt a little sorry for him.
Although Baby Chu was only five years old, he already had serious morning grumpiness.
When she would accidentally wake him in the middle of the night, he would sit up in bed with a sullen expression on his face, ready to burst out in tears. First, he would throw the pillow around in frustration and then cry out in dissatisfaction, as if to vent his displeasure at being woken up.
Chu He was afraid that if she were to forcefully carry him away, it would be too unmanageable if he should wake up with a bout of morning temper!
