Gu Zi felt a pang of guilt under the intense scrutiny, her eyes dropping to shield the proud glint within them. She was on the verge of revealing her true feelings, cursing herself for the unexpected pang of sympathy she felt for the older man.

Gu Zi urged him, “Alright, alright, I get it. Go ahead and chop the bones. I’ll go prepare some milk powder for Lele.” She felt a heat spreading throughout her body, a desperate need to escape her husband’s gaze and catch her breath.

Su Shen began to chop the bones, a smirk playing on his lips as he watched her hurried retreat. His little girl was blushing again.

Once Gu Zi reached the dining room, her heart rate finally returned to normal. She suddenly remembered a phrase she had read before being transported into this novel, “The person who has made your heart flutter, living with them, in the future, they will make your heart flutter even more.”

She had scoffed at the sentiment then, but now she was experiencing it firsthand. The phrase was true.

As she moved towards the exit, she heard the sound of an argument from the living room. It seemed to be the eldest child’s voice, his tone cold as he questioned, “How could you bring a letter from another woman to my father? Didn’t you tell her that my father is already married? Does the woman who wrote the letter want to be a homewrecker?”

Gu Zi had already stepped outside when the eldest finished speaking. The second child seemed to finally register what was happening, puffing out his cheeks in anger as he glared at Hu Bing.

“I heard from the aunties in the village that a homewrecker is a woman who purposely destroys other people’s marriages. They’re bad people. Uncle, why are you helping a bad woman? I don’t want you to visit our house anymore!”

Upon hearing these words, Gu Zi had a rough idea of why the two older boys were so upset. Spotting the letter on the table, the one from Hu Jie, she was even more certain of what had transpired.

She approached the two boys, soothing them, “This incident is in the past. When this auntie wrote the letter, she probably didn’t know that your father was already married. We shouldn’t speak to our guests like that.”

Gu Zi didn’t blame them. After all, Hu Bing was the one who had overstepped his boundaries first. It was only natural for the boys to be angry. However, their words were enough to make Hu Bing blush from embarrassment. Her words were merely a formality, meant to teach the children manners.

Su Bing’s lips were still pursed as he said to Gu Zi, “I found this letter earlier. I didn’t know there was another woman bothering Dad. But Mom, Dad definitely doesn’t like her. You have to trust Dad.”
