Having been freed from prejudice by the recent episode surrounding invitation cards, Baby Chu’s talent in arts and craft gradually surfaced.

  As they were finishing up, Butler Fu announced that dinner was ready. Chu He accompanied Baby Chu downstairs and just as she was about to take her seat opposite Gu Jinglian, she suddenly remembered something and put down her chopsticks.

  When Baby Chu saw this, he asked, “Mommy, why did you put down your chopsticks?”


  “I shouldn’t be eating. I have an event later at 8pm.” Chu He raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was getting late, she had to leave soon.

  Upon hearing this, Gu Jinglian looked up. He recalled that a man had called last night to ask her out. Even though he was vaguely of this, he pretended to ask casually, “What activity?”


  “A colleague is treating us to a meal. He said it’s a welcome banquet.” Chu He patted Baby Chu’s head. “It’s almost 8pm. Mommy’s ready to leave! I may be back very late today, so you should sleep early and not wait up for Mommy.”


  “Eh?” Before Baby Chu could say anything, Chu He stood up and said a few words to Butler Fu, then picked up her bag and left.

  All throughout, it was as though Gu Jinglian was not there, she did not even address him. Gu Jinglian suddenly felt as though a little hussy had stepped all over him and became upset. He frowned momentarily and looked at Baby Chu, only to see the boy glaring at him with a disappointed expression. “Daddy is a big dummy! Big dummy!”


  Gu Jinglian’s expression darkened and he almost lost his temper. “Why are you angry at me?”


  “Mommy must have gone on a date with another uncle!” As though he had not already put the world in chaos, Baby Chu had no awareness that his words were undoubtedly fanning the flames further. “Daddy, you didn’t even stop her! If another uncle were to win her over, you’ll be crying yourself to sleep!”


  When Butler Fu heard this, he could hardly keep a straight face. Just imagining Gu Jinglian crying himself to sleep amused him to no end.

  Gu Jinglian turned ashen. “Who’s crying himself to sleep?!”


  “Anyway, Daddy is too useless! I’ve helped you so much. If you can’t even win Mommy over after all this, you’re even dumber than a big black pig!”


  Gu Jinglian was speechless. He clenched his fists tightly.

  What should he do?

  He was tempted to punch the boy.

  Butler Fu quickly tried to smooth things over. “Baby Chu, don’t worry! Let me tell you some good news, okay?”


  Baby Chu’s mood did not pick up even when he heard this. He was so focused on worrying about his mother running away with another man that he was not even interested in the “good news” that Butler Fu was talking about.

  “Why, you don’t want to hear it? You will be very happy to hear it.”


  Baby Chu did not have the appetite to eat anymore. He held his little head and mumbled listlessly, “Is there anything happier than Daddy and Mommy getting married?”


  “Uh huh. Your daddy and mommy are going to collect their certificate tomorrow.”


  “Huh?” Baby Chu did not understand what he meant.

  Collecting their certificate?

  What certificate?

  As if understanding his confusion, Butler Fu knocked on the boy’s little head. “Of course marriage certificate, silly!”


  “Marriage…” As soon as he said that one word, Baby Chu snapped to his senses. His eyes widened as if there were countless stars twinkling in them. “What!? Really?! Getting married! Are Daddy and Mommy really getting married?”


  “Yes. Tomorrow.”


  Butler Fu was also infected by Baby Chu’s cheerful mood and smiled.

  Baby Chu was so happy that he almost fell off the stool……
