When Gu Zhenmu walked out of the guest room, Ye Wan had been squatting outside the whole time, like a loyal Samoyed. When she saw Gu Zhenmu, her eyes lit up, and she asked Luo Muxiu about his situation in detail.
Although Gu Zhenmu did not want to answer her question, he could see her eyes shining with concern.
He seriously massaged Luo Muxiu's hair and blew it dry for him, afraid that he would not be able to adapt to the new environment. He even left a bedside lamp to illuminate him.
As a seven-year-old child, he had already thought it through quite thoroughly.
Ye Wan couldn't find anything wrong with it. She rubbed Gu Zhenmu's head and praised him for doing very well. Seeing that he was wet from a large portion of his body, she brought him to take a bath.
What surprised Ye Wan was that there were three beds, a single small bed, and two very exquisite beds in Gu Zhenmu's room. It was obvious that the three children lived together.
The villa was very big, so the room was naturally larger. Three beds didn't seem crowded, and there were even three desks, each taking up one side.
The other two beds were also occupied. For some reason, this room was not cleaned by a servant, and one of the beds was obviously in an outrageous disarray.
Ye Wan couldn't help but size it up carefully, her gaze turned and saw the most eye-catching thing in the room. It was a model, or more accurately, a model of this villa.
Inside, there were a few little people kneading the mud. The little people's characteristics were very obvious, Gu Jinyuan and the three children, but beside the little person representing Gu Jinyuan, Ye Wan saw a very simple and crude little person. The little person had been pinched until it was very ugly, and she could only barely see a human figure, and not a gender.
"That's my mother."
"…"
Gu Zhenmu stood at the side of the model and pointed to the ugly little person. Ye Wan could understand the feelings of a child missing their mother, but seeing that little person who looked completely different, Ye Wan couldn't help but want to laugh.
Did the child's mother know how ugly she was being pinched?
Not wanting to hurt her child's self-esteem, Ye Wan cleared her throat and comforted him, "Your mother must be a very good person."
Gu Zhenmu didn't hear the smile on her face that she was trying so hard to restrain. With a slight smile, he nodded his head seriously, "Mn, she's fine."
"Alright, it's getting late. Why don't you take a shower and go to bed earlier?"
Ye Wan suggested. She was afraid that Gu Zhenmu would think of those sad memories, so she pushed him into the bathroom and changed the water in the bathtub into hot water. When she looked back, she saw that Gu Zhenmu was still wearing his clothes.
"Close your eyes, I'll take it off myself."
"…"
Such a young child, how can you be ashamed!
She still closed her eyes obediently. Gu Zhenmu swiftly took off his clothes and sat in the bathtub: "I'm ready."
Ye Wan opened her eyes and saw Gu Zhenmu sitting in the bathtub while hugging her legs, especially alert. It was obvious that he didn't want her to help him shower.
This child, does he really not want her and Luo Muxiu to be together?
Ye Wan could not see through his intentions, so she let Gu Zhenmu spread open his hands and placed his body on her palms. "Alright, go wash yourself with the Blisters, I'll wait outside, call me when you're done."
Finished speaking, Ye Wan stood up and walked out of the bathroom.
Gu Zhenmu was startled, he stretched his head out to confirm that Ye Wan was still outside the bathroom door. He heaved a sigh of relief and lowered his head to bathe himself.
He had already started taking a bath himself, and his movements were very fast. Not long later, he came out with a towel wrapped around his wet hair. The first thing he did when he opened the door was to look up at Ye Wan.
"I'm done."
His hair was a little too long. After getting wet, it stuck to his forehead and blocked his eyes. It made his shiny black pupils turn watery. He was like a pitiful kitten that had been drenched by heavy rain.
"Your hair is still dripping, aren't your eyes very uncomfortable? In the future, remember to dry your hair before coming out." Ye Wan pushed Gu Zhenmu to the side of the bed and sat him down. She found a dry towel to help him wipe his hair, afraid that the child wouldn't be able to take her force and would even carefully ask if it was heavy. Gu Zhenmu didn't say anything.
Ye Wan had no choice but to find a breeze to help him blow-dry his hair.
Although he was a boy, it was unknown if it was because he was still young. His hair was very soft, but the quality of his hair was very good.
"Mu Mu's hair feels very comfortable to touch."
Ye Wan couldn't help but praise him. Gu Zhenmu opened his eyes, which were shining brightly with a smile, "Yeah, because I look like I'm buying a mother."
His five senses inherited Gu Jinyuan's cold and hard nature, making him extremely sparse in personality. Only his hair was soft and fluffy like Ye Wanqing's.
Back then, the first time Ye Wanqing helped him blow-dry his hair, she had also said the same thing. This was something that Gu Zhenmu had always remembered in his heart, like a candy that he had never been willing to eat.
Seeing Gu Zhenmu smiling so happily, Ye Wan's chest couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
How much did this child miss his mother? If he was finally sure that she wasn't his mother, wouldn't he be extremely disappointed?
Thinking about how this child's eyes would turn dark after being disappointed, Ye Wan's chest felt extremely stuffy.
In order to alleviate the discomfort, Ye Wan said seriously, "Your dad is very outstanding and very rich. If you really can't find your mom, you can find a new mom to take care of you. You guys are so nice, your new mom will definitely love you guys a lot too."
This was what Ye Wan truly thought. Gu Jinyuan was such a fierce person, no matter who he married, no one would dare to bully his son.
Just as she finished speaking, Gu Zhenmu's eyes turned red, the water in his eyes almost falling down, he forced himself not to cry.
Ye Wan's heart immediately turned to water. She turned off the wind and hugged the person in her arms, "Don't cry, don't cry. Auntie said the wrong thing. Don't be a new mother. You will definitely find your own mother!"
At this time, Ye Wan had no other choice but to say this. Gu Zhenmu grabbed her clothes and secretly wiped her tears away, declaring in a low voice, "My mother will not be replaced by anyone!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Your mother is unique. No one can replace her."
Ye Wan replied. She spent a lot of effort to coax Gu Zhenmu to sleep, then quietly walked out of the door. Unexpectedly, she saw someone standing at the door.
"miss ye, it's me. Sorry to scare you, Mister wants you to answer the phone."
Lu Zhou took out his phone and handed it over. At the moment, it was a video call and Gu Jinyuan's face was clearly displayed on the screen.
He was abroad, on a sunny day because of jet lag, and Gu Jinyuan was sitting in a windy place, holding his cell phone high, with a blue sea behind him.
Inexplicably, when Ye Wan saw that piece of sea, her heart palpitated.
