Gu Junzhu smiled and nodded at him. He then picked up the red packet and flashed a sweet smile at the adults, “Thanks, Uncle!”
The little fellow’s laughter was so tender and sweet, melting hearts instantly. Had it not been their first encounter, they’d have wasted no time in scooping him up for cuddles, worried less about scaring the child.
After accepting the red packet and expressing gratitude, the little fellow grabbed onto Lingyue’s hand, ran to a corner of the sofa and started opening the red packet.
Seeing her son’s excited, flushed face, Ye Xingbei was caught between laughter and tears.
She just realized that her son seemed to have a soft spot for money!
After everyone sat down and exchanged a few pleasantries, Ye Xingbei fell silent.
Mainly because she was unfamiliar with these men. She didn’t have much to say.
She knew that if a man willingly introduced a woman to his circle of friends, it generally indicated he valued her.
Like Gu Junzhu said, it was a mark of respect towards her.
But she would rather not have that respect.
It was too boring.
Being the only woman among men, the topics they were discussing failed to pique her interest.
She finally couldn’t help but whispered to Gu Junzhu, “Eh, why are you the only one who brought a girlfriend?”
She had assumed others would also bring their girlfriends.
If there were other girls present, she wouldn’t feel so awkward.
Chu Dingbang, who was sitting next to Gu Junzhu, heard Ye Xingbei and before Gu Junzhu could answer, he interjected, “Sister-in-law, didn’t Fifth Brother tell you that among all of us brothers only he is in a relationship while we’re still single! If you have classmates or girlfriends who are as gentle, beautiful, intelligent, and reliable as you, please remember to introduce them to me!”
Qiao Jieran, who had just peeled an orange, tossed the peel towards Chu Dingbang, “Bang Zi, why are you so selfish? Among us brothers, you’re the youngest, what’s the rush? If there is any introduction, I should be the first one to get introduced!”
Chu Dingbang swiftly dodged the peel attack, picked up the peel from the couch, and threw it back at him, “Bug off! You’re even younger than me, you’re not next in line!”
Lu Shiqiu chuckled softly, “Why are you guys arguing? Sister-in-law won’t necessarily only have one friend. What if she happens to have six friends, or even more?”
The men all looked at her.
Ye Xingbei’s mouth twitched, “Are you guys in a hurry to find girlfriends?”
“Yes, absolutely!” Qiao Jieran sighed, “We were in a hurry before, and now that Fifth Brother has registered for marriage and even has a son, we are even more anxious!”
Ye Xingbei was puzzled, “Why?”
What’s the rush to get married because Gu Junzhu got married?
Qiao Jieran heaved another sigh, “For what else? Of course, it’s due to the pressure to marry by the ‘old man’ and women in our families! Before, all of us were single, with the elders occasionally urging us, but now that Fifth Brother is married, our grandfather would rather be like Grandpa Gu and throw a woman on my bed, I…”
Lu Shiqiu, who was sitting next to him, elbowed him.
Realizing his slip of tongue, Qiao Jieran smiled awkwardly, “Sister-in-law, what I meant was, Grandpa Gu’s act might have been unconventional but it miraculously led to your blessed destiny with Fifth Brother! Our grandfather is thinking, perhaps I might end up being as lucky as Fifth Brother!”
He coughed a little and said earnestly, “However, I think that’s quite unlikely. After all, we’ve always been scapegoats for any misdeeds in our childhood while all the benefits went to Fifth Brother!”
At this point, he shot a glance at Gu Junzhu with a somewhat resentful look in his eyes.
Ye Xingbei glanced at Gu Junzhu, then with sympathy looked at Qiao Jieran and the others, “So, he’s been such a devil since childhood?”
