Back Then, I Adored You

Gu Yusheng regained his composure and held onto Qin Zhi’ai’s hand as they continued their walk. After they hadn’t walked far, he said casually, “Little troublemaker, let’s have a baby.”

It was almost empty on the pedestrian street. It was extremely quiet except a cool breeze that blew by them.

Gu Yusheng’s voice sounded smooth, like he was telling her a folktale. Qin Zhi’ai had clearly heard it correctly. She suddenly stopped walking.

Gu Yusheng stopped, too, when he saw her stop in her tracks. He turned around to look at her.

The breeze passed through her hair. A few hairs flew onto his chest, while a few swept onto his neck. It tickled him, but it also gave him the feeling of comfort.

The world seemed to stop revolving at this moment. The peace and quiet stayed with them for a while. Qin Zhi’ai stared straight ahead of her for a while before she turned to look at Gu Yusheng’s chest. She moved her eyes up slowly and met Gu Yusheng’s beautiful eyes with shock. She had heard him clearly, but she wanted to confirm this with him. She couldn’t help asking in a shaky voice, “Are you saying we should? Have a baby?”

“Yes.” Gu Yusheng nodded. He had confirmed it without any hesitation.

Qin Zhi’ai couldn’t seem to recover from the shock. When she heard him say yes, she was struck by another round of shock.

Gu Yusheng stood next to Qin Zhi’ai and watched her without speaking.

In fact, Gu Yusheng hadn’t meant to tell her that he wanted to have a baby with her this soon. Lu Bancheng had departed the night before at eleven o’clock and landed in Beijing around noon that day. He had wanted to tell her that he wanted to have a baby with her only after he proposed to her later that night with the ring.

When he had seen her squatting in front of the little girl, she had comforted the little girl and wiped her tears away. By some miracle, he saw a scene in his head of her and their kids playing on the grass.

His heart was suddenly filled with that desire.

No one knew how much he had tried to suppress his impulse to tell her right there that he wanted to have kids with her.

When he saw that little girl again, the strong impulse hadn’t left him any time to think, and the words had just spilled out of his mouth.

He could usually control himself well. However, whenever it came to her, he couldn’t keep his composure, sometimes even ruining whatever he had planned ahead.

Luckily, he didn’t completely reveal what was on his mind. He wanted to save some of his secrets for later that night when he was going to propose to Qin Zhi’ai.

Thinking of this, Gu Yusheng fluttered his eyelashes and focused on Qin Zhi’ai. She seemed shocked by what he had said. The stunned look on her face was still there when she looked back at him, though she still looked cute and made his heart race.

Gu Yusheng couldn’t help patting her head and saying, “A few days ago, grandpa came to my company and asked me about grandchildren.”

Qin Zhi’ai recovered from the shock as Gu Yusheng talked.

Huh, he only wants a child because of grandpa.

Gu Yusheng’s grandpa had actually reminded Gu Yusheng to have a baby, but he actually wanted to have a baby because of his own desire.

He wanted to wait to tell her all of this until that night.

Gu Yusheng took his hand off Qin Zhi’ai’s head and held her hand. As they walked together, he said, “I think grandpa was right though. It’s time for us to have a baby.”
