Chapter 938: Chapter 937: Even Uncle Bo’s Jealousy Is Refreshingly Unique

Gu Anxi went back to her room and just sat down when that clingy Gu Mingzhu came over again, pulling Gu Anxi in her new pajamas to have a pajama party. Gu Anxi patted her head and frowned, "Are you sick?"

Gu Mingzhu was still quite angry, "I’m not sick."

"If you’re not sick, go write your novel and work on your big career." Gu Anxi coughed lightly, "Even if I have a pajama party, it would be with Uncle, what’s the point of having one with you?"

That remark was quite something, and Gu Mingzhu’s face turned beet red upon hearing it, "Gu Anxi, you’re shameless!"

Gu Anxi looked at her and said with amusement, "That’s shameless? Aren’t you going to live together when you get married? It’s not like in your literary works where you get pregnant with just a kiss, right?"

Gu Mingzhu covered her face and ran off.

Gu Anxi laughed triumphantly, then lay down on the sofa to rest for a while.

Her body really wasn’t what it used to be; taking a bullet for her elder brother had truly left her frail, and she was quite exhausted after a morning of shopping, feeling a bit sleepy as well.

At least she still knew how to take care of herself, pulling a small blanket over her as she dozed off. It was in a daze that Uncle Bo returned, she felt the light come on and then dimmed again. But she didn’t want to wake up and remained lying on the soft sofa.

Bo Xichen sat beside her, gently patted her cheek, "Where did you go? So tired."

A pair of arms wrapped around him, lying in the crook of his arm, she let out a low laugh and then started chatting with Uncle about the day: "Bought some things for Mingzhu, then met... Guess who, Uncle?"

Bo Xichen looked down, placing one hand leisurely behind his head, "Qin Siyuan?"

"How did you know?" Her voice was soft, and she played absentmindedly with the buttons on his shirt.

Uncle Bo just smiled, "Because I ran into him a few days ago."

She oh’d, and when nothing more was said, she asked anxiously, "Aren’t you going to ask about it, Uncle?"

"Nothing worth asking." Professor Bo spoke blandly.

The little mischief seemed distraught, "Oh no, oh no, we’re really like an old couple now."

Uncle Bo chuckled, "Seems like there’s nothing to worry about, just coming home is good."

She also laughed, snuggling softly against him.

Bo Xichen gently pinched her nose, "Is there nothing else you need to tell me?"

She made a sound of surprise, then played dumb, mumbling awkwardly, even going so far as to risk it all by starting a pajama party (poor author~)... Only then did Uncle Bo let her off.

Dinner was in the room; after eating, Gu Anxi lay on the sofa watching TV, clearly lacking energy.

Bo Xichen changed into workout clothes, leaned over, and kissed her, "I’m going to the gym."

Gu Anxi murmured half-asleep, "The gym has a lot of girls dressed very skimpily."

He laughed silently, "Then get up and come with me."

"No, too tired." Gu Anxi complained softly, "Thirty-year-old men are terrifying."

Saying that, she pulled the small blanket over her face, Bo gently pulled it down a bit, looked at her, and then left.

The hotel gym was on the second floor, not far from the restaurant. He first went to meet up with Bo Nianyao, unexpectedly with Gu Mingzhu, who was obediently clinging to Dad Nianyao, probably feeling too lonely. Fortunately, Bo Nianyao also out of respect for Gu Anxi, took good care of her.

Bo Xichen came over to discuss something, making Bo Nianyao a bit surprised, "Moving to a villa?"

Bo Xichen nodded, "Yes."

He paused, coughed lightly, "It’s Mother’s idea. She received Anxi’s little essay and already knew you were sharing a hotel room with Aunt Lu. To keep family harmony, she asked us to move to the villa tomorrow morning."

Bo Nianyao suddenly felt quite disappointed, sighing, "Our little one still sides with her Bo Mama in the end."

After weighing the options, he still agreed.

And Lady Bo quietly took the blame.

Uncle Bo, with no shame at all after lying, said he was going to the gym. Bo Nianyao stopped him: "Aren’t you going to keep your little girl company? What’s the point of going to the gym at this hour?"

Bo Xichen smiled, "She’s already asleep."

Bo Nianyao’s expression turned a bit peculiar, looking at his son with some unexplainable feeling.

After Bo Xichen left, Bo Nianyao said to Gu Mingzhu, "Those two are quite lovey-dovey."

Gu Mingzhu simply oh’d, lowering her eyes, and after a while couldn’t help but say, "Gu Anxi is still young, there’s really no rush for her to get married."

Bo Nianyao, of course, understood what she meant, just smiled without saying anything.

Gu Mingzhu glanced at him secretly, and after a while, mustered the courage to say, "Uncle, can I also call you Bo Dad like Gu Anxi does in the future?"

Bo Nianyao was a bit surprised, but then he smiled slightly, "You can, but you have to properly apologize to Huang Mao."

Bringing up this past incident, Gu Mingzhu’s face fell, and she said in a small voice, "Then if I see him in the future... I will apologize."

Bo Nianyao nodded with satisfaction.

On the other side, Bo Xichen went to the gym, which was quite empty.

But there was an old acquaintance.

Lu Heng.

Lu Heng was running, saw Uncle Bo in the mirror, and smiled faintly, gradually slowing down: "Did you come to see me?"

Bo Xichen leaned on the treadmill beside him: "More or less."

Lu Heng turned around, a touch of wickedness in his gaze: "Feeling uncomfortable?"

"She is my wife now," Bo Xichen said calmly.

Lu Heng got off the treadmill, wiped his sweat with a towel, then his expression turned cold, "But, I was the one who first met her."

"Love isn’t about who comes first," Uncle Bo chuckled lightly, "You’ve also met him, haven’t you? A few years ago, she was in love with Qin Siyuan."

Lu Heng raised his chin slightly: "Seems you came just to give me trouble."

"I wouldn’t dare, just wanted to spar a bit with Brother Lu," Professor Bo was very modest.

Lu Heng sneered: "Even when Uncle Bo gets jealous, it’s in such a pure and unique way."

He tilted his chin up: "Over there."

...

Half an hour later, Bo Xichen delivered a hard kick to Lu Heng.

Lu Heng trembled as he climbed up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "I underestimated your jealousy."

Uncle Bo turned around, leaving behind, "There won’t be a next time."

He paused for a moment: "Also, tomorrow we’ll be moving out of the hotel."

Lu Heng squinted: "You’re afraid she might fall for me?"

Uncle Bo turned back, his expression slightly amused: "If you knew her, you wouldn’t say that."

Lu Heng frowned.

Uncle Bo said with ease: "It’s her who wants to move out, probably thinks there are annoying flies in the hotel."

After saying that, he left, and Lu Heng clenched his fingers.

When he returned to the suite, Mrs. Lu came over, looking at his battered face: "Lu Heng, what happened?"

Lu Heng went to the fridge to get some ice, with an indifferent look: "Nothing."

Mrs. Lu carefully applied the ice to his face, saying, "How did this happen? Really, someone in Jiangcheng dares to hit you."

Lu Heng glanced at his mother, "It was just sparring with Bo Xichen."

Lu Xueman immediately furrowed her brows, dissatisfied: "Sparring and you end up like this, that was a bit harsh."

But a mother always understands her child, and soon she asked softly: "Did you do something?"

Lu Heng looked at her and coughed lightly: "Did nothing!" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

After saying that, he got up and went to his bedroom, Lu Xueman called after him: "Lu Heng, if your father finds out, he’ll break your leg."

Lu Heng turned slightly, and said softly: ’Dad only cares about experimental results, while women are my spoils of war.’

Lu Xueman knew this too, she understood her husband’s temperament all too well.

Unable to deal with her son, and usually doting on him, she sighed softly: "In any case, you’re not allowed to provoke her now. I heard from Zhaoge this afternoon that this little girl is really impressive, can shoot an arrow to pierce through others, how much strength must that take."

She muttered to herself: "Looks so frail, how could she be so formidable."

Lu Heng curled his lips: "Wasn’t she shot last month? She’s pretty weak now, just a paper tiger."

But this little paper tiger was quite smart, and it was a pity she ran away this afternoon.

Lu Heng softly curled his lips: "Alright, mom, I’m going to sleep."

He went back to his room, with Lu Xueman looking worried, and after a moment of thought, she decided to tell her husband about this, only to find out that Lu Ze didn’t take it to heart at all, really just as Lu Heng said, entirely focused on experiments.

Feeling somewhat neglected by her husband, she sat on the luxurious sofa and couldn’t help but think of Bo Nianyao.

Back then, Bo Nianyao was also extremely gentle with her, but she liked Lu Ze the most, yet that didn’t stop her from reminiscing about the past...

She peeked inside, making sure her son wouldn’t come out again, she changed her clothes and prepared to catch up with Bo Nianyao from old times.
