Lin Yiqian frowned helplessly as she pulled Xiaoyu close to her. She extended her hand as she prepared to examine his pants.
As Gu Nianshen lowered his gaze, he immediately saw the kid’s t.e.s.t.i.c.l.es and that Lin Yiqian’s hand would soon touch them.
Without hesitation, he immediately bent over and grabbed Lin Yiqian’s wrist to stop her.
Gu Nianshen then pulled Xiaoyu aside and zipped his pants up for him. “So what if it’s wet? It will dry after a while. You’re a boy. Don’t be such a wuss.”
He glared at Lin Xiaoyu before turning around and walking out of the room.
Lin Yiqian was speechless.
‘You jerk! Do you think it’s okay to wear wet pants? You just wait!’
Lin Xiaoyu seemed confused. What was the meaning of this?
He dropped his head to look at his pants as he reached for his groin. It really did feel awful.
“Mommy.” Xiaoyu looked at Lin Yiqian helplessly.
Lin Yiqian knew him all too well. Each time this happened, Xiaoyu would complain about it for a long while. He seemed to have a particular quirk for cleanliness.
However, she did not have any clean pants around for him to change into.
As Lin Yiqian kneeled down, she picked Xiaoyu up and started walking out of the room. Meanwhile, Gu Nianshen was going through some doc.u.ments at his desk.
“There aren’t any clean pants here. Xiaoyu, please wait for a while. I’ll get Uncle Bai Se to bring you clean ones later, alright?” She said to Xiaoyu, hurriedly.
“Okay.” Xiaoyu nodded, obediently.
The more mature Xiaoyu behaved, the worse Lin Yiqian felt. She squeezed his tiny face before lowering her voice. “Remember, everything that happened between us in the past is our secret. You can’t tell anyone. Understood?”
Then, she felt her throat tighten as a bitterness filled her heart.
She pulled Xiaoyu closer into her arms out of guilt.
How would she make Gu Nianshen accept Xiaoyu? Lin Yiqian’s gaze wandered to the succulents near the window.
The faces on the pots were still smiling at her, which made her feel even more restless. What if their marriage ended in the future. Would Gu Nianshen take Xiaoyu away from her?
“Can’t I talk about the time we went to the theme park and when Mommy bought me ice-cream?”
Lin Xiaoyu lowered his voice when he heard the word ‘secret’.
Lin Yiqian nodded. “Yes. That’s a secret between Xiaoyu and Mommy.”
“Oh.” Lin Xiaoyu nodded. “Can I tell Mr. Gu?”
“No.” She shook her head.
“Alright then.”
Although Xiaoyu wanted to tell Mr. Gu very badly, he would still listen to Mommy if she told him not to reveal their secret.
Otherwise, Mommy would get upset. Uncle Bai Se had instructed him to be a good child who would never make Mommy angry.
“Good boy!” Lin Yiqian placed Xiaoyu on the ground as she patted his head. “Wait for a second. I’m going to get changed.”
As she spoke, she closed the door to prevent Xiaoyu from disturbing Gu Nianshen.

“Qi Shaodong.”
Lin Yiqian could hear Gu Nianshen calling out loudly for Qi Shaodong. However, there was no response.
“He has probably left for the day. It’s late now,” she said.
It was already seven o’clock. Most employees would have gone home already.
Gu Nianshen frowned. ‘Did I say he could leave?’
As Gu Nianshen picked up his phone and was about to call Qi Shaodong, a message appeared. “CEO, you asked me to get lost. I’ve left.”
Gu Nianshen’s facial expression darkened. This fellow was really annoying.
Eventually, he gave up on trying to call Qi Shaodong, he put his phone down. However, right then, he saw Lin Xiaoyu tagging after Lin Yiqian yet again.
