Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 1978 - 1982: Man Proposes, God Disposes

Had he known this would happen, he wouldn’t have gone to the city.

He should have stayed by her side.

He always knew that Jiang City was not a good place.

All her misfortune originated here.

He had thought that Jiang Zhengxing and Gu Yuanfang might act desperately, so Xie Yunlin’s men were always watching Jiang Zhengxing, and his own men were constantly keeping an eye on Gu Yuanfang.

But he never expected that an eleven-year-old child could be so vicious as to stab someone.

It was his miscalculation.

He originally thought that even if someone had the intent to harm Ye Xingbei, with Xueno’s alertness and skills, nothing would go wrong.

Unfortunately, man proposes but God disposes.

Fortunately, the fright ended without danger.

If anything really happened to Ye Xingbei, he would go mad.

He kissed the hand he held, gazing tenderly into Ye Xingbei’s eyes as gentle as water.

"Daddy!" Xiao Shumiao ran in.

Just now, Xiao Shumiao had been crying outside the operating room, his voice hoarse, so Gu Junzhu asked Lingyue to coax him and take him to get something to drink.

The little guy had initially refused to leave, but after Lingyue said something to him, he went with Lingyue obediently. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

He ran to Gu Junzhu’s side, tearfully looking at Ye Xingbei and asked, "Daddy, why hasn’t mommy woken up yet?"

"Mommy’s okay now," Gu Junzhu lovingly ruffled his little head, "Mommy is injured and needs to rest more, so she needs more sleep. Once she wakes up, she’ll be fine."

"Really?" Xiao Shumiao looked at Gu Junzhu with eyes full of hope and longing.

"Really," Gu Junzhu pulled him into his arms, "Why would Daddy lie to you? The doctor said mommy’s injury isn’t severe, and she’ll recover in a few days."

"But mommy bled a lot," Xiao Shumiao snuggled into his chest, clinging to his neck and sobbed, "Daddy, Xiao Shu is scared..."

"Xiao Shu, don’t be afraid," Gu Junzhu held his small body and kissed him, "It’s okay, don’t be afraid, Daddy’s here, mommy will be alright..."

Holding the small, soft body in his arms, he suddenly recalled what the doctor had just told him.

The doctor said that Ye Xingbei might not be able to have children in the future.

He really longed to have a child with Ye Xingbei.

To watch that child be born.

To watch that child grow up by his and Ye Xingbei’s side, little by little.

But if Ye Xingbei really couldn’t have any more children, he felt it wouldn’t be a big deal.

He and Ye Xingbei had Xiao Shumiao.

Even though Xiao Shumiao wasn’t his biological son, he felt that there was a special bond between him and Xiao Shumiao.

Seeing this child made him happy.

He liked the child’s affection and closeness towards him.

In his heart, Xiao Shumiao was no different from his biological son.

He would do his utmost to ensure that Ye Xingbei had healthy ovaries and a uterus so they could have their child in the future.

But if they couldn’t, he felt it didn’t matter much.

Having Xiao Shumiao was enough.

He was at peace with it.

Hopefully, Ye Xingbei could also come to terms with it.

Gu Junzhu caressed Ye Xingbei’s face, his eyes full of heartache and tenderness.

Xiao Shumiao nestled in Gu Junzhu’s arms, quietly waiting.

Gu Junzhu, worried he’d get tired, asked someone to take him back to rest, but he refused, clinging to Gu Junzhu and refusing to leave.

Gu Junzhu chuckled, lowered his head to kiss him, and let him be.

A few hours later, as the anesthesia wore off, Ye Xingbei awoke.

Gu Junzhu immediately leaned in and asked, "How are you feeling? I’ll call the doctor."

Before he could do so, Lingyue had already pressed the call button on the bed.
