Chapter 2399: Chapter 2414: Five Years Later... 6
"Yay, that’s great! I’m so happy, finally we can go out and play." Gu Baobei smiled very happily.
...
The two of them took Baobei to the park. Gu Baobei saw the fountain in the square that she’d only ever seen on TV, and couldn’t stop circling around it.
"Mommy, can you give me a coin to make a wish?" Baobei asked softly as she came up to her mommy.
"Baobei, but this isn’t a wishing fountain." Gu Qingxin squatted down to look her daughter in the eye.
Gu Baobei nodded cutely, "I know, but I can’t see a real wishing fountain, so I’ll use this one instead. I want to make a wish."
Gu Qingxin took out a coin for her, adjusted her scarf, and said, "Go ahead."
Gu Baobei held the coin, closed her eyes ceremoniously, made a sincere wish to the fountain, then opened her eyes and tossed the coin in...
Gu Qingxin only let her daughter play outside for half an hour, and on their way back, Baobei was so tired she fell asleep shortly after.
The two of them took Baobei back to the room together. Gu Qingxin took off her clothes and laid her on the princess bed to sleep.
Gu Qingxin got up to get a disinfectant towel, wiped Baobei’s face and hands, and as she stood up, she saw Rong Qianchen standing at the door watching her.
She lowered her head and kissed her daughter’s forehead, then got up and left.
...
Gu Qingxin threw the disinfectant towel into the trash can, and her body was suddenly hugged. She was startled and looked back nervously at Rong Qianchen.
"Five years, Qingxin, I’ve given you enough time. Can we be together?" Rong Qianchen turned her to face him, looking at her very seriously.
"I... I’m not ready yet... You know, I’ve said it, I haven’t thought about being in another relationship..." Gu Qingxin was so nervous she could hardly breathe, her heart was racing.
The strong scent of his hormones surrounded her tightly, and she nervously swallowed hard.
"You don’t need to prepare for anything. Trust me, I definitely won’t hurt you! Give me a chance, and also give yourself a chance, okay?" Rong Qianchen breathed heavily as he leaned closer to her.
He really didn’t want to wait any longer. For the past five years, he had seen how hard it was for her and felt it in his heart. He just wanted to give her a solid harbor and take good care of her...
Gu Qingxin’s hand at her side clenched into a fist. She did her best not to avoid or get nervous. The past that tore her heart into despair was over, and Qingchen really treated her well. Both Baobei liked him, and to her, Rong Qianchen was definitely the best choice...
But, just as his lips came down, Gu Qingxin still couldn’t help it. She couldn’t control herself and lowered her head.
Rong Qianchen panted as he looked at her, and finally, he kissed her on the forehead.
Gu Qingxin felt like she was about to suffocate. She quickly pushed him away, her face burning, and she hurriedly turned to the other side of the couch, awkwardly apologizing, "Sorry... I... I..."
"There’s nothing to be sorry about. I said it, no matter how much time you need, I’ll wait for you." Rong Qianchen was as gentle as ever.
"Rong Qianchen... don’t wait for me, I’m afraid I might never be able to... you know I’ve completely lost hope in love." Gu Qingxin shook her head desperately.
