Chapter 740 - 741: Spoiling a Child Too Much

Gu Qichen seemed slightly shocked when he heard Xia Yangyang say this.

He saw something in Xia Yangyang’s glistening eyes, flickering on and off.

But eventually, the light went out.

Gu Qichen lowered his head, his gaze still landing on Xia Ye’s face.

Gu Qichen started to speak, “I’d rather not. I don’t need any mistresses. I have you, my greatest lover.”

This didn’t seem like something Gu Qichen would say.

Xia Yangyang was a bit astonished.

She had thought Gu Qichen would be delighted.

Gu Qichen slowly said, “Yangyang, I know giving birth is challenging. I get anxious thinking about you having to give birth alone in a foreign country, with the possibility of dying during premature childbirth. I can’t imagine that scenario and I don’t want you to have to go through it again.”

Xia Yangyang was moved by Gu Qichen’s words.

That night four years ago indeed was life-threatening.

Fortunately, Li Zhiqian arrived in time and rushed her to the hospital.

Otherwise, who knows what would have taken place.

Speaking of which, Xia Yangyang has always felt like she owed Li Zhiqian a life.

Gu Qichen continued, “Besides, I want to cure Xia Ye’s sleep disorder. He’s an extraordinary talent, yet he can’t see the sunrise, or witness the starry sky. It’s such a pity.”

Gu Qichen’s words hit home with Xia Yangyang.

Xia Ye’s disease had always been a worry for her.

How she wished Xia Ye could live like a normal child.

Even if he wasn’t a genius, even if he wasn’t that smart.

Xia Yangyang said, “Don’t worry, Xia Ye will get better, he definitely will.”

In the end, Xia Yangyang parked the car at Maple Villa.

This wasn’t the first time she had come here since returning home.

But her previous visits had been sneaky, and when Mr. Gu discovered her, they ended up arguing.

She hadn’t gotten around to inspecting their once joint home.

In fact, Maple Villa hasn’t changed at all.

Everything was still arranged as it was four years ago.

Standing in the foyer, Xia Yangyang could reminisce about how she would always leave a light on for Gu Qichen, no matter how late.

Xia Yangyang revisited every corner of the Villa.

The fridge was chock full of fresh fruits and vegetables.

Gu Qichen had a habit of always keeping the fridge full.

It was a habit he had developed while living with her.

She sometimes craved egg fried rice in the middle of the night out of the blue.

Even though she had been gone for four years.

Gu Qichen rarely visited Maple Villa.

However, he still had the habit of going to the supermarket every time he came.

He would purchase lots of fresh fruit and vegetables to fill up the fridge.

Gu Qichen took Xia Ye to the children’s room.

This room was reserved when Gu Qichen initially renovated Maple Villa.@@novelbin@@

For such a long time, no one had lived in it.

Yet, it was always spotless, with bed sheets frequently changed.

The toys were always up-to-date.

Now, they finally served their purpose.

However, Gu Qichen had one miscalculation.

Xia Ye was not fond of toys that normal children liked.

Xia Yangyang walked over and hugged Gu Qichen from behind.

Gu Qichen was currently gazing at a wall, deep in thought.

Xia Yangyang leaned her head over and asked, “What are you thinking about?”

Gu Qichen pointed at the wall in front of him and said, “I plan on making a bookshelf that stretches to the ceiling right here. Since Xia Ye likes reading, I should make him a bookshelf. When he’s a little older, I’ll empty the wine cellar and turn it into an underground library for him.”

Xia Yangyang laughed, “Mr. Gu, be realistic, you’ll spoil the child with your indulgence.”

“Let him be spoiled then,” he replied. “All I want now is to give him the best things in the world.”
