Chapter 289 - 69: A Nightmare
Gu Xiaoxi listened, feeling a pang of sourness in her heart.
She lowered her head to look at the little girl in front of her, whose hand was still tightly gripping her fingers without letting go.
Perhaps, what Quan Mo wanted by asking her and Quan Shaoqing to accompany her to sleep was just to find a bit of a mother’s feeling.
"She is a very well-behaved child. Knowing that her parents are no longer around, she has never made a fuss about it. But we all know that she thinks about her mom and dad every day. Actually, I really treat her as my own daughter. Xiao Xi, are you willing to accept her and love her with me?" Quan Shaoqing looked at Gu Xiaoxi, his eyes shimmering with the luster of ice crystals and full of inquiry.
Gu Xiaoxi looked at Quan Mo, then nodded heavily.
As an orphan, she could understand the psychology of a child needing parents.
How could she refuse...
Quan Shaoqing excitedly got up and kissed Gu Xiaoxi’s forehead, overwhelmed with unspeakable emotion.
Actually, most women would not accept another person’s child, even if that person were their blood brother. But she had accepted, bringing him an unprecedented joy.
"Talking about this now is a bit too early, I’m not even prepared to marry you yet!" Gu Xiaoxi’s cheeks warmed slightly, suddenly finding it very awkward to be sleeping in the same bed with him.
