Rebirth of an Idle Noble Women (200-end)

292-294

Xixi: “…” Seriously, why did it have to talk to Jiji at such a solemn time?

Was there really something wrong in Jiji’s head?

Yi Tong laughed as he followed Jiang Shuxuan. There was a saying ‘A smile will gain you ten more years of life’, and Yi Tong thought that if it were true, he could possibly become a thousand-year-old immortal if he continued to stay by Gu Xiqiao’s side.

Hearing his words, Yi Bing looked at him straight in his eyes. “What happens if you died from laughing instead?”

Yi Tong: “…” Would it kill you to just shut up? Geez!

And then he thought about it, since when did this Yi Bing, who had always been serious and uptight become like this…

Gu Xiqiao walked down the stairs, following behind Shu Chen. “I just found someone to make a few sets of new clothes which are following the popular trends currently. Oh, that’s right, and some matching clothes for mother and daughter. Let’s wear them tomorrow, and I’ll show you around the ancient martial arts world!”

Shu Chen sounded very excited, and as she pulled Gu Xiqiao downstairs with her, she acted as though she didn’t see her son, continuing to babble with Gu Xiqiao. “Doesn’t it look good on the both of us? Shuxuan, don’t you think so too?”

Jiang Shuxuan: “…” So you finally remember that you have a son.

Although that was his thoughts, his gaze turned to Gu Xiqiao. She was wearing a light green dress with a fox fur coat. Even the big coat was unable to hide her thin and slender figure underneath, it was no wonder Mrs. Zhang kept feeding her food whenever she could. It even looked like she had become thinner over the past two days.

She slowly followed Shu Chen downstairs, her steps slightly awkward at the long skirt. The lights from the crystal lamps reflected on her face, and it was hard to tell whether the fox fur coat or her face was paler under the glow.

She usually had a cold expression on her face, but today there was a faint smile on her lips as her eyes shimmered softly. It gave her an exceptionally warm glow, beautiful to the point it was hard to look away from her.

Then he turned his gaze to his mother, who was also wearing the same green dress. Thinking for a while, he finally said, “Like a green caterpillar.”

Having said that, he rushed off to the study, not daring to look at Gu Xiqiao, Yi Tong, and everyone else hot on his heels.

Behind him, Shu Chen had her fist raised in a motion that she was going to beat the crap out of her son for saying that. Why didn’t she know that her son was this sort of person before? Sure enough, it would probably be better to have just grown potted plants!

“Aunt Shu, Brother Jiang may just be jealous of your beauty,” Gu XIqiao said, after being silent for a while.

After being comforted like that, Shu Chen had wanted to say something more to Gu Xiqiao, but the butler came over. “Madam, there is someone here to meet you.”

“I’ll leave first, Qiao Qiao. I’ll be back in a while.” Shu Chen knew that if it wasn’t important, the butler wouldn’t have come personally to inform her. So she bid goodbye to Gu Xiqiao and left.

Only Gu Xiqiao was left in the living room, with Jiji and the others.

“Why is Dog Feed here?” Gu Xiqiao asked, pointing to the plant in Jiji’s arms.

“To make a mess!” Jiji exclaimed excitedly, and proceeded to relate the entire incident that had happened between them and Dubhe.

The corner of Gu Xiqiao’s mouth twitched, and she didn’t comment on Jiji’s story. For Jiji to come back intact, Dubhe really had good self-restrained. “Jiji, I upgraded the virtual trial arena.”
