Before he fell asleep, he was still clutching the soft toy tightly in his arms. He loved it so much that he would not let go of it. When Chu He saw this, she was helplessly amused and simply let him be.
In her daze, she caught a trace of a movement. She suddenly opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the sound. She saw a tall and lean figure standing in front of the bed in the darkness.
The moonlight fell on his feet. Seeing that she had woken up, he raised his finger slightly and pressed it against his lips, indicating for her to not wake the child.
Gu Jinglian had entered the room and walked to the side of the bed. She had been careless. In the past, even the slightest movement would wake her up. Unexpectedly, this time, he was already near the bed by the time she woke up.
It seemed that after staying in the Gu family for so many days, even her sense of crisis had diminished. She should have woken much earlier.
Gu Jinglian looked down and saw Baby Chu in Chu He’s embrace, sleeping soundly with his arms around the soft toy!
His arms were wound tightly around the toy, unwilling to let go even when he slept.
Just how much did he like this soft toy? But in Gu Jinglian’s eyes, this toy was so ugly that it was worse than nothing.
He slowly sat on the side of the bed and sized the boy up. Looking at Baby Chu’s chubby and fair little face, he could not help teasing him. He reached out his long fingers and gently pinched the child’s nostrils close.
When Chu He saw this, her lips twitched. She did not expect this man to have such an evil sense of fun.
In his sleep, Baby Chu suddenly felt like he was suffocating. He opened little mouth with a soft “pop” and he started breathing again, but he did not wake up.
This fellow sure slept soundly!
Gu Jinglian could not help feeling that this fellow was especially cute when he was asleep.
At least, he was quiet.
The child’s thick eyelashes became especially noticeable when his eyes were shut!
Gu Jinglian moved closer and caressed those eyelashes with his fingers.
Even in his sleep, the little fella could feel the abnormality of his eyelids. He subconsciously waved his hands and gave a kick, causing his soft toy to be kicked off the bed onto the ground.
What a temper.
Gu Jinglian pinched his cheek. Now that the soft toy had been kicked onto the ground there was space for him next to Baby Chu.
Chu He watched as the man lay down beside Baby Chu and suddenly felt uncomfortable!
Was he planning to sleep here tonight?
Chu He felt her limbs stiffening up, so much so that she could not help but retract her arms that were around Baby Chu, as though afraid that she would make contact with the man.
Gu Jinglian saw her awkward expression from the corner of his eye but did not pay much attention to it.
He gently hugged Baby Chu’s shoulders and closed his eyes.
During the day, he was busy with work, and the little fellow had to go to kindergarten for classes, so they did not spend much time together.
Even though the little fella would try to get close to him sometimes, he felt that the kid was too clingy when he was awake. This only made him want to kick the boy as far as he could.
On the other hand, when the boy wasn’t around creating a din, he would start missing him. It was truly inconceivable. It seemed that he had not adapted well to the role of a father!
Gu Jinglian closed his eyes and Chu He, who was beside him, finally could let down her guard. It seemed like he just wanted to sleep next to Baby Chu.
Hence, she did not think too much of it and fell asleep watching over the boy..
