After Chu An felt the threat at his waist leave, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Gu Xiao really wasn’t sleepy, Chu An blinked and changed the topic. “What did you say to Mom and Sister-in-law in the kitchen? Why do I feel that your relationship seems to have become much closer?”

If Gu Xiao had only gotten close to Mrs Chu and Sister-in-law Chu, he would not have asked this question.

However, he kept feeling that the three of them were close because of him, Chu Zi, and their father. Moreover, it was something bad for them.

This intuition was really strange and fierce, but Chu An couldn’t make himself ignore this thought.

After seeing that Gu Xiao was no longer sleepy, he planned to clarify this matter.

When Gu Xiao heard Chu An’s words, a hint of playfulness flashed across her eyes.

Meeting Chu An’s curious gaze, Gu Xiao thought of what Mrs Chu had promised her, so she could only let Chu An down.

After all… Mrs Chu had promised her that in the next few days, Mrs Chu would find an opportunity to show her photos of Chu An when he was young. There were also photos of him wearing diapers and little dresses.

Although she knew that the only reason why Chu An was able to wear such clothes was because he was still young, and the baby’s brain capacity was insufficient to withstand Chu An’s memories, and those were equivalent to photos taken before Chu An had his memories.

However, could it be that Chu An would not be Chu An if he had amnesia?

Hence, she was really curious about the photos of Chu An when he was young that Mrs Chu had mentioned. She definitely couldn’t let go of this good opportunity!

“It’s nothing. 1 just asked Auntie about how braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard is made,” Gu Xiao said calmly without any flaws on her face.

When Chu An heard this, he looked at Gu Xiao inquisitively, as if to confirm if what Gu Xiao said was true.

Chu An looked for a long time, but he didn’t see anything wrong with Gu Xiao’s expression. However, he still felt that something was wrong.

“Xiaoxiao, are you serious?”

Gu Xiao nodded. As she was lying on the pillow, when Gu Xiao nodded, the flesh on her cheek was squeezed. It was round and very cute.

“Of course.”

Chu An’s attention was attracted by Gu Xiao’s face, so he couldn’t care about anything else.

Anyway, Gu Xiao would not harm him.

With this thought in mind, Chu An completely abandoned the strange intuition in his heart. He stretched out a hand and pinched the cheek that had been squeezed out by Gu Xiao’s movements.

Although Gu Xiao was usually not too thin, there was not much meat on her cheeks, which made Chu An feel very regretful.

Now that he had encountered such a good opportunity, he would not spend more effort on “unimportant” matters.

“I believe in Xiaoxiao’s words.” Chu An responded to Gu Xiao’s words, but in his heart, he had no further intention of talking about the topic just now. freeweb novel.com

Gu Xiao wasn’t angry when Chu An pinched her face.

Compared to the photos of Chu An when he was young, the matter of her face being pinched was not worth mentioning.

If Chu An knew that she had designs on his childhood photos, Chu An would definitely think of all ways to stop her. Then, when Chu An was prepared, it would basically be impossible for her to see Chu An’s childhood photos again.

In fact, Chu An might even deliberately destroy those “precious” photos!

Gu Xiao’s docile attitude also made Chu An even more impudent. When Chu An became more and more excessive, Gu Xiao narrowed her eyes and reached out to slap Chu An’s hand away.

“Alright, time to sleep.”

After saying that, she was worried that Chu An would attack again, so she turned around in Chu An’s arms, with her back facing him.

When Chu An saw this, he let out a few muffled laughs. Gu Xiao, whose back was pressed against Chu An’s arms, could even clearly sense the rise and fall of Chu An’s chest.

Chu An hugged Gu Xiao tightly in this position and pecked the back of her head. His voice still had a smile that hadn’t dissipated. “Okay, good night. Sweet dreams, my Xiaoxiao.”

Gu Xiao paused for a while before responding to Chu An’s “my Xiaoxiao” in a low voice.

The two of them closed their eyes and did not speak again. After a while, the two of them fell into a deep sleep.

Hence, the next morning, the Chu family discovered that Chu An, who was supposed to be sleeping in his room, had come out of Gu Xiao’s room..
