Chapter 578: Chapter 68: With Her in This Life, No Regrets

Gu Xiaoxi was returning with Jing Haoran.

Jing Haoran laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. "You said at the beginning that the two of them were fighting over a woman! Ah, women in love are just different, always so emotional when they think about things!"

"Roll! No one will think you’re mute if you don’t speak," Gu Xiaoxi’s cheeks flushed slightly—after all, it was just a guess at the beginning.

After she finally sorted out her thoughts, it turned out that the whole affair stemmed from Aotai’s ambition.

It was Aotai who first calculated against Long Ji, while Long Ji cleverly made an intricate deployment in advance.

"All right, the mission is accomplished anyway. You’re still the best!" Jing Haoran grinned and gave a thumbs up.

Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t be bothered with him.

When she returned to the International Alliance, it was already the tenth day after she had left.

She even returned a day earlier than Jing Rui.

Jing Rui went back after finishing a meeting at her unit.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxi, she couldn’t believe it and said, "I didn’t expect that you, a young girl, solved what so many of us couldn’t. Impressive indeed!"

Gu Xiaoxi modestly declined to take full credit, "It wasn’t just my effort. I asked Shaoqing to help. But you mustn’t tell anyone else about this."

Jing Rui caressed her face, full of admiration, "You girl, I really don’t know what to say about you. Don’t worry, I definitely won’t blab. Shaoqing and you are truly a match made in heaven; even when it comes to dealing with things, you two are in such harmony."

"I’m telling you! Young Master Quan is always ready to help; he’s practically your little follower. I’ve noticed, whenever there’s a problem that can’t be solved, with him involved, it’ll definitely be taken care of," Jing Haoran teased.

Gu Xiaoxi didn’t mind and said, "Your words sound rather sour, but he’s family. Of course, I would turn to him if there’s a problem."

"Are you flaunting your love in front of us?" Jing Haoran rolled his eyes, "Showoffs die from..." Quickly!

He hadn’t finished his last word when someone kicked him from behind, causing him to fall heavily onto the sofa.

When he lifted his head in anger, he saw Quan Shaoqing had appeared in front of him at some point.

"Haven’t seen you for a few days, and your mouth’s gotten worse. But all I hear is pure jealousy! Haoran, if you dare, go find a wife yourself and show off your love!" Quan Shaoqing took Gu Xiaoxi’s hand.

He turned to Jing Rui and said, "Aunt, I’m taking her with me. I’ll bring her back tomorrow morning."

"Okay! Go on! The selection here is about to begin, time is being confirmed, and it’s okay to come back in three days," Jing Rui said with a smile.

"Okay," Quan Shaoqing said, and then he took Gu Xiaoxi away.

Jing Haoran felt incredibly heartbroken!

He covered his sore butt, looked at Jing Rui with pitiful big eyes, and said, "Aunt, can you introduce me to a girlfriend?"

"Things like this can’t rely on introductions. You have to find a girl you’re compatible with," Jing Rui comforted him, patting his head.

Jing Haoran felt that, with the way his eyes were, finding someone he was compatible with could take an indefinitely long time.

...

Quan Shaoqing naturally took Gu Xiaoxi to Lu Xi’s place.

Although he was busy and Gu Xiaoxi was busy too, the reunion of the family was indispensable.

Lu Xi’s vineyard was also being built, the grapes were ripe, and he had hired a professional winemaker.

The newly made wine, although not aged over the years, was the sweetest and most mellow in flavor.

Gu Xiaoxi also enjoyed the time spent with the children.

When she and Quan Shaoqing held the children and reminisced about the past, there was always an endless amount of things to talk about.

Time flew so fast; in the blink of an eye, she had been a soldier for five years and by Quan Shaoqing’s side for five years as well.

She had grown from a child into a mother of a child.

When Gu Xiaoxi saw Quan Jinling, she felt that life passed as quickly as a dream.

The little boy who was growing up didn’t need to lean on the sofa anymore; he could run around the room.

His small body and cheerful laughter could be seen and heard everywhere.

And she, along with Quan Shaoqing, had developed a deep affection for their home.

In the afternoon, the weather in Texas was very pleasant.

Sunlight filtered through the windowsill, casting a glow into the room.

Gu Xiaoxi squatted on the ground, playing with Little Baby.

"Mama!" When the little one was happy, he could joyfully call her that.

Upon hearing it, Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t help but beam with joy.

Quan Shaoqing, having a rare day off, personally made some delicious food and brought it over to them.

Watching the mother and son playing on the floor with utter delight, his eyes were filled with adoring smiles.

"Come, I’ve made some tasty pastries." Quan Shaoqing carried the plate over, and Quan Jinling shakily waved his little arms, taking a piece and stuffing it into Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth.

Gu Xiaoxi was pleasantly surprised. "Who taught him that? He’s truly mommy’s good baby."

"And what about me?" Quan Shaoqing hungrily looked at his son.

Quan Jinling picked up another piece and put it in his own mouth. Clearly, without teeth, he couldn’t eat it yet. So, he passed the saliva-coated piece to Quan Shaoqing.

Quan Shaoqing made a face, not knowing whether to accept it or refuse.

Being covered in this guy’s drool was disgusting.

"Forget it, daddy doesn’t need it. Let’s not waste!" said Gu Xiaoxi, smiling contentedly.

Quan Jinling immediately tried to shove the pastry into Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth, but halfway there, Quan Shaoqing snatched it away and stuffed it into his own mouth.

Rather than letting his wife eat their son’s saliva-covered treat, he thought it best to eat it himself.

As Quan Shaoqing ate, he held Quan Jinling and warned him, "I’m telling you, don’t give food you’ve eaten to others, got it? It’s very impolite."

"Ya ya!" Quan Jinling didn’t understand much yet and reached out to poke his father’s nostrils.

Watching Quan Shaoqing, who’d completely lost his cool demeanor due to their son’s teasing, Gu Xiaoxi laughed until her stomach hurt.

Quan Shaoqing had lost his temper in front of Quan Jinling. "You naughty kid! Go stand in the corner as punishment, you’re not behaving at all."

It seemed like Quan Jinling understood because he immediately opened his mouth wide and began to cry.

Seeing this, Gu Xiaoxi quickly took the child from Quan Shaoqing. "Stop it! He’s just a child. Lingling will be well-behaved in the future, right?"

After Gu Xiaoxi took him, the child immediately calmed down.

Quan Shaoqing massaged his forehead, looking at Little Pudding and thinking he was quite the little ancestor.

But in this tranquil atmosphere, he wished that the peaceful afternoon would continue forever without end.

Because he didn’t know how long these quiet days would last.

Each time he saw the dawn’s sun rise, he knew that the tranquil life was becoming rarer.

The child’s cries and laughter made him feel that life was complete.

At this moment, with Gu Xiaoxi and their child, she had no regrets!

The sounds of crying and fussing traveled far from the room, and Lin Shu downstairs also felt happy.

This was the blissful time she’d always longed for, hoping that Quan Shaoqing and Gu Xiaoxi could always live like this.

Without those responsibilities and ties, they’d be the happiest people in the world.

Facing the sunlight, Lin Shu smiled too.
