Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 981

Chapter 981: Feel Like Eating It

“Second Brother, h-he did something bad,” Movie King Gu said softly. The most tragic thing was that he had no right to chide him for doing something wrong.

Lin Xiaojuan went to the kitchen and boiled some water. Then, she brewed a cup of tea and placed it in front of Gu Xie. “You must have been really busy lately. Did you have enough sleep? Your dark eye circles are very deep.”

Gu Xie reached his arms out and hugged Lin Xiaojuan. He leaned back slightly and hugged Lin Xiaojuan as they lay sideways on the couch. The beautiful and soft girl was in his arms, yet his heart still could not find a sense of security. Lin Xiaojuan’s face reddened, but she was a little worried.

“What’s wrong with you?”

“Xiaojuan, hug me.”

Lin Xiaojuan reached out and hugged him by the waist. She could hear his heartbeat when she turned her head. The familiar scent overwhelmed her senses as if it was trailing its way through her guts and immersing itself into her bones. It made her feel really warm.

In between her breaths were his.

“Ok!”

Gu Xie asked, “Xiaojuan, do you hate Black Rose?”

“Yes,” Lin Xiaojuan said. “She is mentally psychotic. I don’t know who she is, how old she is, and how she looks like, but judging from how she treated Qianshu, I feel like she’s a mental psycho. Cruel and mean.”

Gu Xie was silent.

When had he ever felt good about Black Rose?

Suddenly knowing that there were traces of Black Rose’s blood in his body, he wished he could return all of himself back to her.

He suddenly felt like emulating Nezha the third prince. He wanted to return his bones to his father and his flesh to his mother.

He did not want to have the slightest bit of association with her.

“What about you?” Lin Xiaojuan asked.

“I hate her,” Gu Xie said. “I hope Little Shu is safe and sound.”

“She’s really so cruel. Say, doesn’t she have any kids? How could she bear to hurt other people’s children?”

“Perhaps, she just doesn’t give a damn.”

Lin Xiaojuan said, “Nonsense. What kind of parent doesn’t care about their children?”

“Some parents don’t. Being her children is a very tragic thing too. No one wants to be them.”

“Yeah.”

Lin Xiaojuan agreed with this point.

“But no one gets to pick the family they are born into,” Gu Xie said.

Lin Xiaojuan looked at him, feeling a little confused, yet she could only see the side of his face. He seemed like he was very worried about some things. Lin Xiaojuan hugged him tightly. “Yeah, people can’t choose the family that they are born into, but they can choose to be a righteous gentleman or to be a fake and evil loser.”

Gu Xie’s body shook, and his tone was a little tense. “In your eyes, am I a gentleman or a loser?”

“In my heart, you are, of course, a righteous gentleman,” Lin Xiaojuan said and hugged him calmly.

Gu Xie’s heart hurt.

I’m not as good as you make it sound like!

On the island.

After getting the shot, Shen Qianshu’s fever went away fully. Her body no longer ached at all. When she was speaking to Black Rose, she felt like she was drunk. Now, she began eating properly and trying to get her body back to good health. Yet, she was very unhappy with one thing.

Monica and Maxi were sitting near her, and they were eating a lobster.

It was a huge lobster that looked really appetizing. It was as big as her palm, and Shen Qianshu salivated from looking at it. Monica dug the lobster flesh out and put it onto Maxi’s plate. Beside them, there was also a plate of salt and pepper mantis shrimp that was thicker than two of her fingers.

Shen Qianshu looked down at her plate.

Boiled vegetables, tofu, and two pieces of chicken meat. They were not even chicken drumstick.

How could she bear with it?

Monica could sense her resentment. She looked up. “What’s up?”

“I want to eat that too.” Shen Qianshu salivated as she looked at the mantis shrimp. It was so thick and fleshy. There were at least 20 of those mantis shrimps on her plate, and they looked like very fleshy ones. Monica and Maxi would not give her the lobsters and crabs, but maybe they would give her two mantis shrimps.
