Chapter 137

A sense of panic unlike any he had felt before came crashing over him like a tidal wave.

He couldn't bear to imagine life without his mother.

But... that man was strong, he would protect his mother, wouldn't he? He had said so before, hadn't he?

He had promised.

After his father transformed into his Pure Wolf Form, in his son's eyes, he seemed as massive as a car. Surely he could protect his mother?

Through tears that blurred his vision and a heartache so intense it left him breathless, the thought that "maybe Dad is a hero" brought him great comfort.

In truth, his father did keep his promise.

His mother returned, unharmed and without a drop of blood spilled.

He would not end up miserable.

Baby Shang gripped his mother's clothes tightly and gazed at Gu Wen, his young voice earnest: "Thank you, Dad."

For five days after that, Baby Shang clung to Shang Xi every minute, until he finally gave Gu Wen some time alone with her.

He figured that since his mother liked his father and they were together now, he should give them some private space.

That day, the blonde uncle took him away to play games.

"Be careful, kiddo. Stay close to your uncle," Shang Xi cautioned, standing at the door watching the pair leave.

"Don't worry, sis-in-law. I'll take good care of the little one," Gu Chen waved at her as they departed.

Shang Xi realized that her son had been cooped up in the hospital with her every day. It must have been quite dull and boring for him, even though she had noticed that he wasn't as restless as other children his age. But he was still at that mischievous age after all.

"I really don't understand you." She tilted her face slightly, her pale skin with a reddish glow. The light from the window illuminated the fine down on her face. He could see her distinctly feminine shyness and hear the petulant tone in her voice.

Lying in the hospital bed, his body numb, his head still a bit foggy, Gu Wen felt that all this beauty was so surreal.

He swallowed, sighing softly, "If this is a dream, I might go crazy when I wake up."

Upon hearing this, Shang Xi paused, then slowly turned to look at him.

This lone wolf...

Did he really need to seem so pitiful?

Well, in his current state, unable to move anything but his head, he did look quite pitiful.

"I can't deal with you," Shang Xi said, leaning down to kiss his forehead.

She straightened up.

And saw Gu Wen's wide black eyes.

She cleared her throat lightly. "This is not a dream! Understand?"

A spark lit up in Gu Wen's eyes as he pressed his thin lips tightly together, restraining himself. If only... if only he could move his body now, he would definitely grab the back of her head and kiss her until she was breathless!

Shang Xi she

...

Was just too adorable!

Too unfair!
