Chapter 366: Chapter 366: That Day, Did You Meet Gong Shaoyu?
The little guy chatted with Fan Tuan for quite a while and felt a bit cold, so he returned to the house where a servant was holding a plate of fruit. Seeing him, she asked, "Young Master, what would you like for breakfast?"
Jingxi tilted his head and thought for a while before speaking, "Whatever is fine."
After saying this, he ran off to the second floor.
Beichen Rui, having freshened up, came out of the bathroom. Ye Xinluo was still asleep, so he didn’t wake her and turned to leave the room.
As soon as he closed the door, he saw Jingxi running toward him, "Daddy, has Mommy gotten up yet?"
Beichen Rui shook his head.
"Mommy is so lazy. It’s already late, and she’s not up yet. The sun is already shining on her bum." With that, he was about to head into the room.
Beichen Rui didn’t stop him and let him go. The little guy went to the bedside, climbed onto the bed, leaned on Ye Xinluo’s side, and softly called, "Mommy, time to get up."
For a long while, there was no response. Jingxi tilted his head and watched for a bit, "Mommy, time to get up, the sun’s shining on your bum."
Still no reaction. Jingxi pouted and reluctantly climbed off the bed and turned to leave.
Once the door was closed, Ye Xinluo, lying in bed, opened her eyes. In fact, she had woken up not long after Beichen Rui had. The reason she didn’t want to get up was that she didn’t know how to face him.
After spacing out for a while, she finally threw off the covers and got out of bed. Before she could reach the bathroom, the door opened again. Ye Xinluo turned back to see Beichen Rui holding a set of clothes and toiletries.
Seeing her, he smiled, "Get ready and go eat." He handed the items to her. Ye Xinluo took them, her eyes evasively avoiding his gaze.
"Thanks," she muttered before going into the bathroom.
After changing her clothes, Beichen Rui was still standing there. Unsure of what to say, she simply bypassed him and headed for the door.
As she passed by him, Beichen Rui grabbed her wrist, "Did you meet Gong Shaoyu that day?"
Ye Xinluo replied, "Yes."
Afterwards, she broke free from his hand and left the room without looking back, leaving Beichen Rui standing there alone.
It was a good while before he lifted his foot out of the room.
In the dining room, Ye Xinluo was having breakfast with Jingxi. Seeing him come over, the little guy immediately waved, "Daddy, come eat breakfast quickly."
He sat down at the table without speaking, quietly eating.
At this moment, the little guy suddenly said, "Mommy, I suddenly want to eat the food you cook, what should I do?"
Ye Xinluo smiled, "If you want to eat it, I’ll cook for you."
Hearing this, the little guy’s eyes turned, and he said with a smile, "Mommy, Aunt Tong has something to attend to at home, and she won’t be back for quite a while. Why don’t you come here to cook for us?"
Ye Xinluo realized that the "Aunt Tong" the little guy mentioned was probably the mansion’s servant.
"Aunt Tong?"
"Yeah, yeah, she’s the housekeeper here," Jingxi explained, "I think something happened with her daughter-in-law or something, anyway, she won’t be here for a while."
Blinking his eyes, he looked at Ye Xinluo, "Is that alright, Mommy?"
Ye Xinluo hesitated for two seconds, glanced at Beichen Rui... and for a moment didn’t know how to respond...
Cooking for Jingxi was normal because Jingxi was her son, but coming here to cook... Would it be inappropriate?
After all, Beichen Rui had a fiancée. If Jiang Shihan found out, who knows what she might say.
Looking at her son, she suddenly regretted bringing him back. Now it seemed they had to live apart from each other.
