Chapter 18 What is your relationship?

Gu Jingming carried Gu Xiuyuan out of the amusement park, then remembered that Ye Qingtao hadn’t followed. He put the child in the car and turned back to look for her. At this time, Ye Qingtao appeared at the corner, leading the two younger ones. Their eyes met, and Ye Qingtao was startled by Gu Jingming, who was shirtless.

He was currently without clothes, his scarred body, strong and muscular. Ye Qingtao already knew he had pecs and abs, but she didn’t expect him to be so muscular. Gu Jingming’s muscles were more explosive than many male stars she had seen who showed off their muscles. Ye Qingtao quickly looked away, but Gu Jingming’s gaze lingered on her curvy figure.

The situation had been urgent just now, Ye Qingtao hadn’t even had time to take off her coat before jumping into the water. When she came out of the water, her coat was soaked, and water was constantly dripping down. Ye Qingtao had already taken off her coat and put on the white shirt Gu Jingming had given her. Her clothes inside were wet, and soon they soaked the shirt too. Before, she had used her wet woolen coat to cover her body, and people in the amusement park knew she had fallen into the water, and looked at her a few more times, but they couldn’t see her figure. Now the coat was on the ground, and Ye Qingtao hadn’t had time to pick it up.

 Under the wet and clinging clothes, Ye Qingtao’s perfect figure was on full display. “Comrade Gu Jingming, I just helped you, and now you’re going to act like a hooligan in broad daylight?” Ye Qingtao picked up her coat and covered herself, she coughed lightly, and Gu Jingming finally came to his senses. Gu Jingming opened the car door and invited them in. The car stopped at a clothing store on the side of the road, Gu Jingming bought two new sets of clothes for Ye Qingtao without haggling over the price. The car quickly drove back to the courtyard, Gu Jingming opened the car door for them and carried Gu Xiuyuan inside. Fortunately, Grandma was still napping at this time, if she saw this situation, she might not be able to accept it and have an emotional breakdown.

 “Qingtao, I need to change the child’s clothes first, you and Xiuping can go to the second floor to take a shower.” Gu Jingming handed over the newly bought clothes, and Ye Qingtao took the clothes and went upstairs. The second floor also had a bathroom and toilet, Gu Xiuping ran ahead, leading the way. When he got to the bathroom, he even explained in detail how to use things, and thoughtfully gave her a new towel before quickly retreating. Ye Qingtao locked the bathroom door and took a comfortable hot shower. She dried her body and took out the new clothes Gu Xiuping had bought from the bag. She originally thought that Gu Jingming had bought these clothes in a hurry, and they wouldn’t fit well. But unexpectedly, the clothes fit perfectly and were also very warm.

Ye Qingtao was wearing new cotton clothes and pants, a fluffy sweater, and a gray woolen coat on top. Ye Qingtao stood in front of the mirror with her wet hair loose. It was very hot in the bathroom, the hot water created a haze, and the whole mirror became hazy. Ye Qingtao wiped her hair a little, straightened it, and then opened the bathroom door. Ye Qingtao had just come out of the bathroom when Gu Xiuping came in with a cup of steaming ginger tea with brown sugar.

 “Sister, have some tea.” Ye Qingtao took the ginger tea and took a small sip, the tea was still a little hot, it was obviously freshly brewed. “Did you make it?” “Big Brother asked Auntie to make it, I brought it over as soon as it was done.” “Let me see your hand.” Ye Qingtao pulled Gu Xiuping’s hand, and sure enough, she found that it was red from the burn. She sighed softly and took out the burn ointment she had developed from her space.

 She carefully applied the ointment to Gu Xiuping’s slightly burned hand. “Gu Xiuping, promise me, you’ll take good care of yourself in the future!” The place where her hands had been burning hot suddenly felt cool after applying the ointment. “Sister, what did you just put on me, my hand feels so good!” “It’s burn ointment, your hand was injured from carrying hot water, you didn’t even know it hurt.” “Anyway, sister will feel sorry for me!” Gu Xiuping lowered his voice and said coquettishly. “I won’t feel sorry for you if you don’t take care of yourself.”

 “Then I’ll take care of myself from now on, will you still feel sorry for me, sister?” The 6-year-old child already knew how to say a lot of things, his voice was soft and sweet. When he deliberately acted cute, the old lady said she couldn’t resist. Although this body was only 20 years old, her mental age was actually 32. She was older than Gu Jingming, so on the surface, Gu Jingming marrying her was an old man marrying a young girl, but in reality, it was unknown who was the old man and who was the young girl. “Okay.” Ye Qingtao saw Gu Xiuping being so well-behaved, and she couldn’t help but reach out and rub his little head, this time she agreed very readily. Gu Xiuping looked up, a sweet smile on his face. “Sister is so good, I like sister more and more.”

 “Xiuping’s little mouth is so sweet, who taught you to say these things?” “I just wanted to say them, I don’t need anyone to teach me!” Gu Xiuping raised his little head and said proudly. Ye Qingtao looked at this little guy who was bigger than his age and couldn’t help but laugh. “Sister, Big Brother said you must be very tired after falling into the water, I’ll take you to my room to rest.” Ye Qingtao was indeed feeling weak all over now, this was probably a sign of catching a cold after getting wet.

“Okay, then I’ll trouble Xiuping.” Ye Qingtao felt dizzy and really wanted to sleep now. Gu Xiuping’s room was on the second floor, it wasn’t big, only about 10 square meters, but it was simply and warmly decorated. Gu Xiuping patted the pillow and asked Ye Qingtao to lie down, after she lay down, he carefully covered her with a blanket.

 Ye Qingtao looked at it and couldn’t help but marvel, such a young child could take care of people, was he too sensible, or had he experienced too much? Ye Qingtao’s head was throbbing, she turned over and faced away from Gu Xiuping, quietly took two pills from her space and put them in her mouth. Ye Qingtao swallowed the pills with a gulp, then closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep. Ye Qingtao felt very tired, so tired that she couldn’t open her eyes. She didn’t know how long she slept, when she opened her eyes again, it was already dark.

 Ye Qingtao moved her arm slightly, and immediately a hot hand grabbed her wrist. Ye Qingtao was startled, the light above her head suddenly turned on. Gu Jingming was staring at her with a pair of dark eyes, not blinking. “You, why didn’t you go back to your room to sleep?” “Xiuping said you fainted, I was worried about you, so I stayed by your bed after you fell asleep.”  “I’m sorry, I was only focused on taking care of the fallen Gu Xiuyuan today, and I neglected you. I clearly invited you out to play, and I even got you sick, it’s all my fault.” Ye Qingtao pulled back her hand that he was holding, she looked into his eyes and asked seriously, “What’s the story with those kids
