Now, unsurprisingly, she was aware of her hunger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid his continued nagging, Gu Xinuo quickly changed the subject, \"So, who was on the phone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qin Er,\" he replied, \"There’s a situation at the J State base.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xinuo looked up at him, \"Are you going back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Chen hummed in affirmation, then stretched out his hand to pinch her face, \"I’ll leave after dinner with you. Wait for me obediently here; I’ll be back soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t get hurt,\" Gu Xinuo advised habitually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, injuries were just a part of their routine, but she still couldn’t help uttering this phrase, as if it would bring her some peace of mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Chen’s eyes and brows tinged with a smile, \"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can we start dinner then?\" Not fond of the heavy mood, Gu Xinuo cheerfully asked, \"I’m almost starving to death here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He laughed softly, \"Go take a seat in the dining room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xinuo bent her lips into a smile and helped carry the bowls and utensils out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night was cool, and the dim yellow light reflected off the lake’s surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold breeze blew by, lifting the curtains with the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang sat by the bed, watching the man who was putting on his coat, her red lips slightly pursed, appearing somewhat listless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Mochan, when will you be back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man hadn’t even left yet, but she was already feeling the pangs of separation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be the pregnancy that was making her feel so unusually sentimental?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After straightening his collar, Li Mochan walked over, lifted her into his arms, and encircled her waist with his strong arm, \"Didn’t you just urge me to leave quickly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang hummed softly, pulled open his coat, and buried her head in his chest, stubbornly saying, \"Who cares about you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little rascal was saying one thing and meaning another,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan couldn’t help but chuckle, lifting his hand to stroke her head, \"Shall I read you a storybook until you fall asleep before I go?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1364,"2026-05-30T05:19:11.335Z","2026-06-01T04:30:24.264Z",1,"novelbin.me","98e492021d67e821734b084973f9345e74217fe1077d350705cc6329a68ba0a6","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-670","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-668",877,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-cover.jpg"]
