Chapter 191: Descend_1

Gu Xiaobei cried herself to sleep, occasionally sobbing. Under the dim light, Lu Zhanguo gazed at Gu Xiaobei's sleeping face, caressing her cheek gently. The realness of this moment felt so good.

Early next morning, Gu Xiaobei woke up with swollen eyes. Lu Zhanguo had already made breakfast. Chen Gang and Jiujiu looked worried, staring at Gu Xiaobei anxiously.

Gu Xiaobei felt warm inside, guessing that her sobs last night had frightened the children. She forced a smile, which looked even worse than her crying face, and said, "Let's eat. After breakfast, you two take a break today, and go back to school tomorrow."

Chen Gang nodded, "Yes, I will go check on my mother later."

Jiujiu wanted to go home too, but she was afraid Li Xianglan might hit her. Gu Xiaobei understood her concerns, stroked Jiujiu's head and said, "I will accompany you to see your mother next Sunday."
