The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 407: Just Want to Sleep With Me_2

Gu Yuan was at a loss for words.

She just said, "Wait till you get married and then have kids. If your first child is a girl, you might have to wait a few more years before getting married. By then, our Suisui will be nearly ten, and your son will be just a month old. Are you sure about that age difference?"

Sheng Yi rebutted, "I can’t wait a few more years. What if I get lucky in love in the next year or two and have a shotgun wedding?"

The remark carried a certain confident undertone.

Gu Yuan picked up Suisui, sat down beside her, and replied to Sheng Yi, "Your words seem to be hinting at something. Could it be that you’ve finally found someone you fancy?"

"Finally???" Sheng Yi’s expression was exaggerated.

Gu Yuan remained unusually calm, "Isn’t it, finally!"

Sheng Yi grabbed her chopsticks, "Yuanyuan, your ’finally’ made me realize the seriousness of the issue. Just wait, I’ll sign up for a dating show tomorrow. Tonight, I’ll download a bunch of dating apps, like Zhenai Online, Local Dating, Heartfelt Matchmaking, True Love Matchmaking, I’ll download loads of them."

Gu Yuan: "...No need to go overboard."

Sheng Yi nodded vigorously, "Absolutely necessary, otherwise, the age gap in a future younger-guy-older-girl relationship would be too wide, which isn’t ideal either."

Gu Yuan: "..." She was left speechless.

The dinner was exceptionally delightful.

Suisui had been having a great appetite lately, and she ate quite well tonight, which made Gu Yuan quite relieved.

Sheng Yi talked about everything, speaking a lot. Most of the time during the meal, it was Sheng Yi who was doing the talking.

She returned to her own life’s big question, expressing regret, "Although there are benefits to staying single, having never experienced love, I really want to have a passionate romance."

Gu Yuan’s smile spread wide, "Interested in romance, eh?" Her words had an implied suggestion, "There are plenty of opportunities around. You just need to pay attention to those around you."

"No need to observe, the trust fund babies I meet all just want to play around, acting like typical playboys who care about the physical rather than the emotional."

That earlier remark from Gu Yuan suggesting she observe those around her, other than the people in the entertainment industry, it mostly includes those just in it for the fun.

And—

"I’m stuck in this industry, there’s no way around it. Most of the time, once I’m in a film crew, male actors openly or subtly propose to have an on-set relationship. Once the shooting ends, everyone goes their separate ways. Initially, it was thoroughly perplexing, but now, my mindset is calm. I tell them to get lost."

Sheng Yi recounted with tears of bitterness, "You see, in such circumstances, how could I possibly meet someone genuine? Anyone claiming to be genuine is just looking to sleep with me."

Gu Yuan was a bit helpless with Sheng Yi’s unaware reaction, "Sometimes you’re smart; other times, your brain is rather wooden, not very insightful."

Sheng Yi scooted closer, "What do you mean by that?"

Gu Yuan picked up some food for Sheng Yi, "Let’s finish eating first, and then I’ll explain."

Sheng Yi ate the dish, poured herself a small glass of red wine, then raised the glass towards Gu Yuan, "Yuanyuan, I haven’t properly thanked you for last time. I know it might seem pretentious of me, but this glass is for our friendship. I’ll down it."

Gu Yuan just took a small sip.

The wine flavor spread in her mouth, leaving a pleasant aftertaste.

She took a bite of food, slowly chewing, while also tending to Suisui during the meal. Seeing her daughter have such a good appetite, not being picky, and eating obediently, Gu Yuan truly felt a mother’s deep satisfaction.

After the meal.

The bored Suisui kept clinging to Gu Yuan, like a little shadow following wherever she went.

Sheng Yi wanted to pick a large bouquet of roses, so Gu Yuan personally brought scissors to snip them one by one, then wrapped them in beautiful floral paper, looking prettier than what the florist sold.

In an exaggerated tone, Sheng Yi said, "Yuanyuan, if you opened a flower shop, I bet the business would be so booming you’d quickly dominate all the floristry of Sui City."

"You’re just sweet-talking."

"I’m sweet-talking because whenever I come to see Yuanyuan, I have a thick layer of sweetness smeared on my lips." Sheng Yi laughed after she said this.

Suisui, who had been obediently counting flowers, suddenly asked, "Mom, is my mouth sweet?"

Gu Yuan reached out to touch Suisui’s head, "Sweet, sweet enough to make bubbles in mommy’s heart."

It seems that girls naturally love compliments. Suisui was so happy her eyes curved into crescent moons.

Sheng Yi had recently hurt her foot and was on leave resting at home. After eating at Gu Mansion, she pestered Gu Yuan to play with her in various ways, with a big bouquet of roses ready, and posed while Gu Yuan snapped pictures with a phone.
