She quickly glanced at Feng Tianlan, wanting to speak to her son before he got into trouble. “Ahem, my child, you should focus on learning and having fun. You don’t need to worry about adult matters.”
“Well, of course, 1 have to worry about Mother’s matters!” Gu Xiaonan sighed deeply, sounding like a little adult. “You’re not getting any younger, Mother, and you should find a man to enjoy life with.”
“Yes, yes, that’s right!” Tang Shijun risked agreeing with a nod.
As the adult and child sang together, Feng Tianlan’s face had become as dark as a thundercloud.
Gu Qingluan had witnessed Feng Tianlan’s jealousy not too long ago and was worried that he might lose his temper. She quickly stood up and said, “1’11 go check if the dishes have arrived.”
Just as she was getting up, she saw Qianxi leading a maid into the room.
The maid was carrying a tray filled with steaming hot dishes.
Gu Qingluan thought to herself that the timing was perfect.
She sat back down and said, “Let’s eat. We can talk after we’ve finished our meal. No talking while we eat.”
Gu Qingluan was sandwiched between her two sons, with Feng Tianlan sitting beside Feng Yuanxi, diagonally across from her.
The maid began placing the dishes on the table one by one.
Each dish was a feast for the eyes and the senses.
These dishes were prepared by the chef she had trained at Yunhai Tower and were truly exceptional.
However, Feng Tianlan didn’t even glance at them. His gaze was locked onto Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan pretended not to notice and alternated between serving her sons and eating.
Feng Tianlan stared at her for a long time, then suddenly smiled silently.
Although Gu Qingluan hadn’t looked at him, she inexplicably shivered.
She suddenly had a foreboding feeling.
Could it just be her imagination?
Tang Shijun sensed the tense atmosphere at the dining table and didn’t dare to pry further. She quietly dug into her rice, content to enjoy the delicious meal.
The dishes at the Jun Residence were incredibly delicious. She ate here many times, but each time, she felt like she was experiencing culinary heaven.
She wished she could live here permanently.
Actually, if Gu Qingluan didn’t mind the gender, she would be willing to marry into this family!
The meal was finished in silence, with everyone lost in their own thoughts.
After the meal, Tang Shijun, sensing the strange atmosphere, tactfully made an excuse to leave.
Gu Qingluan held the hands of her two sons and headed towards Shallow Clouds Residence. “Let’s go take a nap.”
Feng Tianlan silently followed behind the mother and her two sons, not saying a word.
Gu Qingluan didn’t understand what he meant.
He hadn’t spoken since the meal, and even after they finished eating, his gaze had remained fixed on her, making her uneasy.
When this guy goes crazy, even lunatics are afraid of him.
She could only continue to play it safe.
Fortunately, after entering the room, Feng Tianlan didn’t follow them inside.
Gu Qingluan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Mother, were you afraid of him just now?” After closing the door and seeing Gu Qingluan visibly relieved, Gu Xiaonan furrowed his little brow and asked.
“Of course not, how could I be afraid of him!”
Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but raise her voice but quickly lowered it again.
Gu Xiaonan touched his chubby chin, and his big, dark eyes stared at his mother. “You’re lying. You are afraid of him!”
Gu Qingluan snorted. “You little rascal, I’m only afraid he might hit you! You ungrateful child, instead of thanking your mother, you’re interrogating her.”
As she spoke, she pinched his chubby, rosy cheeks.
Gu Xiaonan’s face was distorted by the pinch, and he quickly rescued his handsome and cute little face from his mother’s clutches. He retreated several steps into the room, feeling safe in his chosen spot.
“Mother, you’ve changed. You weren’t afraid before!”
After a pause, he added confidently, “Besides, he wouldn’t dare to hit me!”
Gu Qingluan crossed her arms. “Humph, where do you get your confidence? It’s perfectly natural for a father to discipline his son!”
“Hmph, he hasn’t become my father yet!” Gu Xiaonan curled his lip dismissively.
Although he had silently recognized him outside the Jun Residence and had started to accept him in his heart, as long as his mother didn’t embrace him, he wouldn’t refer to him as his father!
In his heart, his mother was the most important person.
Gu Qingluan smiled and said, “So, what does it take to become one? Your blood ties can’t be severed. He now knows you’re his son, and he’ll be looking for you more often in the future.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaonan imagined the scenes in the future and didn’t find them bothersome at all.
Gu Qingluan could tell from her son’s expression that he had been moved by Feng Tianlan’s protection today, even though he wouldn’t admit it verbally. In his heart, he already accepted this fact.
With that, her decision had even less reason to be reversed.
“Don’t you want to take a nap? Get into bed.”
Gu Qingluan walked toward the elaborately carved large bed.
Feng Yuanxi and Gu Xiaonan exchanged a glance and followed her.
The three of them removed their shoes and outer garments and slipped under the covers.
The two little ones lay inside, while Gu Qingluan lay on the outer side.
She lay on her side, propping her head up with one hand, and looked at the two of them. “Actually, your father is not bad, and I don’t dislike him.”
Both of her sons widened their eyes.
“Mom, do you like Dad now?” Feng Yuanxi asked in pleasant surprise..
