The baby seemed to understand what his mother was saying. Just like usual, he blinked his big eyes and stared at his mother. Gu Sisi looked at the baby and continued to shake the toy in her hand.
The baby's gaze was fixed on his mother. Suddenly, he let out a loud cry again. Gu Sisi was a bit dazed. What was wrong with this child this time?
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, Gu Sisi slapped her forehead.
"Look at my stupid brain."
She almost forgot that the baby hadn't had any milk since he fell asleep. Look at her. She was so busy teasing the baby with the toy that she forgot that the baby was still growing and what he needed most every day was sleep and nutrition.
"I'm sorry, baby. It's mom's fault. It's all mom's fault for not realizing that you were hungry."
While comforting the baby, Gu Sisi was in a hurry to prepare milk powder for him.
"Let me do it."
Just as Gu Sisi took out the milk powder, Huo Cheng's voice suddenly rang in her ear. A hand reached out and took the bag of milk powder from her hand.
"Go and comfort the baby. He's crying really hard."
Gu Sisi walked towards the baby in a daze. Maybe because he found that no one had come to take care of him for a long time, the baby cried even louder.
This instantly pulled back Gu Sisi's wandering thoughts and brought her back to her senses.
"Don't cry, don't cry. Baby will have milk soon. Don't cry, baby."
While saying this, Gu Sisi gently patted the baby to comfort him.
What was going on? It was the same again. She had experienced this once in the morning, and now it was the same at night. Gu Sisi stroked the baby's little head, full of self - blame.
As the baby's mother, she didn't even know whether the baby was hungry or not. How could she be like this?
But look at Huo Cheng. At first, he didn't even know how to hold a child. Now, his movements of making milk powder were getting more and more skillful.
Really, looking at Huo Cheng, even Gu Sisi, the baby's real mother, felt a bit ashamed.
Soon, Huo Cheng made the milk powder and fed it to the baby. Finally, the baby calmed down.
He continued to suck on the pacifier and gulped down the milk, looking very satisfied.
The baby had cried for a long time just now and used up some energy. Coupled with just having drunk the milk, he soon felt sleepy. Gu Sisi held the baby and coaxed him for a while. Gradually, the baby closed his eyes and slowly fell into a dream.
After Gu Sisi gently put the baby in the crib, she and Huo Cheng tiptoed towards the door.
Just as Gu Sisi closed the door and felt relieved, suddenly her wrist tightened.
Huo Cheng grabbed her hand, pulled her to the side, and suddenly pinned her against the wall. His other hand also grabbed Gu Sisi's, and their fingers were intertwined. Then Huo Cheng suddenly leaned in.
Gu Sisi's eyes blinked uneasily as she waited for the upcoming kiss.
"Sister Sisi! What's wrong with the baby? Why did I just hear him crying?"
Suddenly, Yang Qian's voice came from the stairway.
"Cough, cough, cough." Gu Sisi coughed a few times and quickly separated from Huo Cheng.
"You... you can continue." Yang Qian didn't expect to see such a scene as soon as she came upstairs.
No wonder Jiang Lihao had been trying to persuade her not to come up just now. She was still wondering why, but now she knew.
Because she was really worried about the baby, and Jiang Lihao had always been so unreliable, Yang Qian still wanted to come upstairs to take a look in case something happened again.
Who would have thought that as soon as she came upstairs, she would see... Yang Qian was a bit annoyed. Did she just ruin their good time?
Just thinking of Huo Cheng's look just now, Yang Qian couldn't help but shiver. It was as if he wanted to eat her.
Yang Qian rushed downstairs in a hurry. On this side, Gu Sisi's ears turned red. Huo Cheng looked at her with amusement.
He pinched Gu Sisi's little face and pulled her into his arms.
"I will definitely get our child back."
Gu Sisi heard Huo Cheng's voice above her head. This voice seemed to have a kind of magic spell. For some reason, Gu Sisi felt very at ease.
Huo Cheng had said it, and he would definitely do it.
Because of the sudden change during the day, after dinner, Jiang Lihao and Huo Cheng went into the study. The two of them were discussing things in the study.
Yang Qian pulled Gu Sisi to talk in the room. It was not until late at night that Huo Cheng and Jiang Lihao came out.
Seeing that Gu Sisi and Yang Qian were both still awake, both of them frowned.
Yang Qian was grabbed by Jiang Lihao and taken to bed. Huo Cheng also told Gu Sisi to go to bed quickly, but Gu Sisi wanted to go and check on the baby first. Huo Cheng couldn't persuade her, so he accompanied her to see the baby.
"Tomorrow I will call Sister Hua back. Sister Hu will also be back tomorrow, and all the servants will go to work as normal."
Huo Cheng told Gu Sisi, but for some reason, Gu Sisi was still a bit worried.
"Don't be afraid. Big sister and second brother are in my hands. No one will come to snatch the child."
Huo Cheng continued to comfort Gu Sisi...
When Huo Cheng felt that his lips were about to wear out, Gu Sisi finally believed that the child would be safe here.
Huo Cheng finally let out a sigh of relief. His wife was finally willing to go to bed. He felt so relieved.
However, lying in bed, Gu Sisi still couldn't fall asleep. Too many things had happened recently, and there were some things that Gu Sisi didn't understand.
First, she received a new script. Then the original author refused to sell the copyright. When she was in a bad mood, she bumped into a strange meeting between Huo Cheng and Gu Chenfei.
Then she unexpectedly found out that the original author she was looking for was Gu Chenfei. Gu Chenfei readily signed the contract, bringing Gu Sisi an opportunity.
Throughout this whole process, no matter what, Huo Cheng refused to explain his relationship with Gu Chenfei directly.
Then, the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family suddenly came to the house boldly to snatch the child.
All the things that had happened in these few days were very strange. Whether it was Huo Cheng, the manager and assistant, Gu Chenfei, or the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family, everyone was very strange.
Even Gu Sisi thought that the arrival of the eldest sister and the second brother of the Huo family was very fishy. Even if they had sent away the servants in the house for various reasons in advance, they shouldn't have come in person.
Were they really that bold, thinking that they could come and go in the Huo family without any fear?
With full of doubts, Gu Sisi finally fell into a dream...
On the other hand, Huo Cheng stayed awake all night. He also noticed the strangeness and fishiness during this period. Compared with Gu Sisi's simple thoughts, Huo Cheng was more worried about what the Huo family was up to.
After all, the arrival of the eldest sister and the second brother was really strange. He didn't believe that with the IQ of these two people, they would directly come to his residence.
Because he was afraid that these two people had other purposes, and after hearing what Gu Sisi said in the afternoon, Huo Cheng had a big opinion of these two people and really wanted to teach them a lesson.
So Huo Cheng transferred the two of them to a dungeon in the Huo family.
