Chapter 825: Gu Xiaobao and Gu Xiaobei (3)
This was because Gu Xiaobao wanted to establish his place in front of Gu Xiaobei.
He was Gu Xiaobei’s older brother.
He had to protect her, and only when he became a man could he protect her properly.
Gu Xiaobei’s eyes twinkled as she stared at him. Stretching out her grabby hands, she held her brother’s palm, calling out to her brother using a few unintelligible sounds.
Children tend to have a softer tone to their voice, which is capable of melting hearts. Gu Xiaobao sighed in fond exasperation. ” If you don’t want to call me, you don’t have to.”
“Heaviside.”
Hilda walked towards them. Upon seeing Gu Xiaobao and Gu Xiaobei together, her smile widened. “Wow, you are both here. Sweet darling, your mother will be coming to bring the two of you back to China next month.”
Gu Xiaobao eyes shone. “Mom’s coming back?”
It hadn’t been too long since their mother left, approximately a month. Gu Xiaobei had also successfully weaned off so it was about time for her to return.
“Yup. Your mother and father will be coming back together to fetch you. Be good and continue caring for Deborah.”
Hilda came over to peck both Gu Xiaobao and Gu Xiaobei on the cheek.
“Ugu~”
Ecstatic at being kissed, Gu Xiaobei took the initiative to lean towards Hilda’s cheek to give her a sloppy kiss of her own.
Hilda’s eyes curved into crescents.
In the past, she often worried that her son wouldn’t get married and give her grandchildren.
Now, it was her greatest fortune to have these two obedient grandchildren.
Especially Deborah who called out to people’s hearts.
Once Hilda left, Gu Xiaobao continued with his lecture. “Xiaobei, did you hear that? The two heartless people are coming back. When they’re back, don’t treat them too well first. Who asked them to throw us away whenever they wanted.”
The servants at the side were speechless.
Many servants were guarding the two children every day. It was fun to see the young prince try to educate the young princess.
The young prince was evidently elated at the notion that his parents would be back but acted all nonchalantly and even tried to teach his younger sister.
It was a relief that Deborah couldn’t understand those words yet.
As expected, Gu Qingjiu and Helian Niancheng returned together.
Gu Xiaobao was on a stroll with Gu Xiaobei at the garden when Gu Qingjiu and Helian Niancheng suddenly arrived. Gu Xiaobei was the first to notice.
And she did something which broke Gu Xiaobao’s heart.
He had tried for a long time to get his sister to speak but to no avail. However, once she saw Gu Qingjiu, her eyes shone, and raising her chubby arms she ran towards Gu Qingjiu while calling out ‘Ma… ma… mama.’
Gu Xiaobao was speechless.
This shock was devastating for Gu Xiaobao.
“Aiya, my sweetheart, my darling!”
Seeing Gu Xiaobei, Gu Qingjiu stepped forward and scooped Gu Xiaobei up. Gu Xiaobei wrapped her arms around Gu Qingjiu’s head as she continued calling out ‘mom’ in an unclear manner.
Gu Xiaobao, who was at the side, pouted as he complained, “This is unfair. I taught Deborah for so long and she wouldn’t call me. Why did she call out to mom?”
Helian Niancheng chuckled lowly before scooping Gu Xiaobao up. “She started to teach Deborah while she was still caring for her. As for why she only said it now, we don’t know as well.”
Gu Xiaobao said, “Hmph! I don’t love her anymore.”
