Chapter 65: Suspicion
The sun, like a furnace, shone on the body. Nuonuo had just arrived at the villa entrance when he looked up and saw Xiaole riding his motorcycle and falling.
“Xiaole, what’s wrong with you?”
Nuonuo was so scared his little head was still dizzy from the sun, and he quickly ran over, stumbling.
Running up to Zhou Xiaole, Nuonuo didn’t even watch where he was going. He was tripped by a stone, and before his little head could even react, he had already fallen to the ground.
Gu Ze quickly ran over and helped Nuonuo up, patting the grass clippings off his pants.
At this moment, Grandpa Gu’s gaze also turned over. Seeing Nuonuo, who had come over with Gu Ze, his chest heaved, and thinking of the half of his energy he had lost, he couldn’t help but say angrily, “Fei Nuo, how did you come over with Gu Ze?”
Perhaps because it was the first time someone had called him by his full name, Nuonuo didn’t even react that Grandpa Gu was talking about him. He sat on the ground, patting his little pants, and even lifted his little face in confusion. “Who is Fei Nuo? His name sounds like mine!”
Fei Jing, who had arrived a step later, saw Nuonuo’s silly little appearance, and the heart that had just been in his throat suddenly relaxed.
Letting out a breath, Fei Jing curled his lips into a faint smile, glanced at Grandpa Gu without a change in expression, and walked over, picking up the little one who had fallen to the ground in his arms.
“Where did Nuonuo go? How come you’re all sweaty?”
Fei Jing had just come out of the air-conditioned room, and his fingertips were still a little cool. Touching Nuonuo’s forehead, which was scorching hot from the sun, made Nuonuo can’t help but shrink his little shoulders.
“I went to find Gu Ze, ya. Brother’s hand is so cool, so comfortable.”
As he spoke, Nuonuo, like a little kitten, rubbed his little head against Fei Jing’s palm.
Fei Jing looked at this little dumpling with his slightly curved eyes, his comfortable look as he rubbed against his hand, and the anxiety and tension he had felt just now, thinking something had happened to the little one, seemed to have truly melted away in the sunlight at this moment.
Fei Han, on the side, saw Nuonuo’s intact appearance, and his clenched hand also slowly relaxed. But a red mark from his nails was still left on his palm, both painful and itchy.
“Let’s not stand here anymore. The sun is too big. Let’s go inside.”
Fei Jing’s golden hair seemed even more dazzling than the sun under the sunlight. He curled his lips into a faint smile, which made the others look at him in a daze.
Lei Xiaoyan and Zhou Xiaole were still dazed children. They were pulled into the house by the bodyguards, still immersed in the shock that Nuonuo’s brother was a big star and a beauty.
Grandpa Gu, on the other hand, the moment he saw Fei Jing and Fei Han walk over, the smile on his face completely froze. His skinny hands trembled a couple of times before he managed to maintain his composure and said with a laugh, “I won’t go in. I still have to go back and water the flowers. It’s so hot, those flowers are very delicate and can’t be without water.”
Grandpa Gu didn’t even realize that when he was facing these three villains, Fei Jing, Fei Han, and Fei Nuo, who were gathered together, his tone was a little trembling.
Although as a transmigrator, he had also accumulated a lot of energy for self-defense, but that little bit of energy was simply not enough in front of these several villains!
And there were three of them!
Three ferocious and ruthless villains standing in front of you, who wouldn’t have a mental breakdown!
Even though Grandpa Gu had done so many missions, his heart couldn’t help but start to pound wildly.
In his previous missions in other worlds, he had only helped the system push the plot, playing a small cannon fodder who was looking for death, or a background character, and he had never met those protagonists much.
And this world was not as peaceful and quiet as the previous ones. It was almost full of unknown dangers.
Most importantly, the energy he had just used was already the most he could muster. Now, if Fei Jing really made a move, he would have no power to resist at all.
Fei Jing was a very smart person. After just two sentences, he could be sure that this Grandpa Gu was also an outsider.
This was a bit interesting. It was the first time he had seen an outsider not circling around their Fei family, but instead becoming the grandfather of a little one.
He had let go of a young and strong body and was instead willing to be in such an old and sickly body…
At this thought, Fei Jing glanced at the silent Gu Ze standing to the side.
From the very beginning, no, it should be said that from beginning to end, his gaze had been on Nuonuo. Now he was even looking up with concern, asking Nuonuo in a small voice if he was hurt from the fall.
Nuonuo shook his little head. He was still not as steady on his feet as a human child and would fall from time to time, so he was used to it.
“Then I’ll carry you on my back next time, so you won’t fall.”
Gu Ze tilted his face up and said very seriously.
Nuonuo continued to shake his head. “No, ya. My brother will hold me.”
Hearing this, Gu Ze instantly lowered his head in disappointment.
And Fei Jing, on the side, for some reason, felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart.
“Let’s go in together. Or are you worried about something?”
Fei Jing’s gaze moved away from Gu Ze, and his eyes, as he looked at Grandpa Gu again, had a hint of coldness.
Grandpa Gu looked at Fei Jing’s beautiful face, which was smiling yet not smiling. He didn’t feel that he was like an angel who had fallen to the mortal world at all. Instead, he felt that this person was truly a complete demon!
His heart panicked, and Grandpa Gu quickly waved his hands. “What could I be worried about? It’s just that I really can’t be away from home. I’ll be leaving first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Grandpa Gu turned and left in a hurry, looking a bit like he was fleeing in panic.
Fei Jing looked at Grandpa Gu’s panicked back, and the smile on his lips was tinged with a bit of mockery.
“Eldest Brother, don’t you think it’s quite interesting?”
Although he said it was interesting, Fei Jing’s eyes became even colder. For a moment, he even wanted to directly make this person disappear from this world.
Fei Han glanced at Fei Jing and finally regained his usual composure. He went over to check the little motorcycle that had fallen to the ground and had a certain affirmation in his heart. “Find a chance and see if it’s him.”
Fei Han handed the little motorcycle to a bodyguard on the side and whispered in Fei Jing’s ear.
The two of them both knew that the accident just now was aimed at Nuonuo, but because of the accident, the person who had gotten into trouble had become Zhou Xiaole.
Although Fei Jing and Fei Han’s relationship was not good, they were both extremely protective people. If someone dared to cause trouble under their noses, then they shouldn’t blame him for being impolite!
But Fei Jing was still a little surprised. He had thought that with Fei Han’s cold personality, he wouldn’t care about these things. After all, in the whole family, Fei Han was the most distant towards Nuonuo.
Nodding with a bit of surprise, Fei Jing then passed by Fei Han.
Nuonuo was led back to the living room by Gu Ze. The moment he entered, the cool breeze from the air conditioner instantly wiped the sweat from his little forehead.
Nuonuo’s head, which had been dizzy from the sun, was now much clearer.
Taking the water that Auntie Wu handed him, Nuonuo held the cup and drank more than half of it in one go, his little belly visibly bulging. “I’m… I’m almost full!”
Nuonuo touched his little belly and giggled, covering his mouth.
“My belly is also bulging!”
Lei Xiaoyan on the side jumped off the sofa, stood next to Nuonuo, and puffed out his belly to compare with him.
Zhou Xiaole wasn’t seriously injured. After the doctor applied medicine, he was already full of energy and jumping around. At this moment, he also stood behind Nuonuo, firmly supporting his big brother. “My big brother’s belly is the most bulging! Yours is not as big as my big brother’s!”
And so, on the topic of who could drink the most water and have the most bulging belly, Zhou Xiaole and Lei Xiaoyan began a fierce argument again.
Nuonuo looked left and right, wanting to tell the two of them to stop arguing, but his little milky voice was completely drowned out by their loud voices and had no effect at all.
The noise was making Nuonuo’s ears hurt a little. He had no choice but to squeeze out from between the two of them and quickly run to the side.
“Huh, my little cookies are here.”
Nuonuo saw the box of snacks he had opened, happily walked over, picked up a little cookie he had been longing for, and took a big bite.
The snack that he had gone through so much trouble to get seemed to be sweeter than the usual little cookies. Nuonuo ate three in a row before he stopped.
“Nuonuo, don’t forget your mission. I’m going to check some things.”
006, who had been silent since he came in, suddenly spoke up and then immediately disappeared again. The strangeness of what had happened today was peculiar, and 006 suspected that it was Grandpa Gu who had done it. But without evidence, it could only leave first to investigate.
Nuonuo let out a belated “oh,” then scratched his little forehead, thinking to himself, What’s a mission?
“Nuonuo, what are you thinking about?”
Gu Ze went to the kitchen and brought back a glass of iced fruit juice, placed it in front of Nuonuo, and sat next to him, tilting his head to ask.
And when Nuonuo saw him, he let out a little “ya” and thought of his mission. “Nothing, ya. I’m going to eat all the little cookies!”
And I’m going to finish them in front of Gu Ze, Nuonuo thought happily, swinging his little feet.
“But it’s almost noon. Your belly won’t be able to fit it, Nuonuo.”
Gu Ze looked at the time with concern. He had already learned to read a clock when he was picking up bottles with his grandfather. It was almost twelve o’clock now, and it would soon be time for lunch.
Nuonuo thought of the fragrant and delicious food the chef uncle made. Holding the little cookie in his hand, his little brow furrowed in a dilemma. “Then… then I’ll eat half!”
Having quickly made a decision, Nuonuo was happy again. He ate the little cookies one by one, the sweet and fragrant taste making him squint his little eyes with joy.
Gu Ze was not very interested in those little snacks, but seeing Nuonuo eat so happily, he also pursed his lips and smiled.
Over there, Lei Xiaoyan and Zhou Xiaole, who couldn’t come to a conclusion in their argument, saw Nuonuo eating cookies and instantly forgot about their fight. They ran over, drooling, and asked, “Nuonuo/Big Brother, can I have a piece?”
Nuonuo’s mouth was full of cookies, and he mumbled that it was okay.
Gu Ze on the side, afraid that Nuonuo would choke, quickly handed the iced fruit juice to his mouth.
Lei Xiaoyan ate five or six cookies in one go and was also choking. He wanted to shamelessly go and drink the fruit juice in Gu Ze’s hand, but was pushed away by Gu Ze with a frown. “No, this is for Nuonuo. You go and drink something else.”
Lei Xiaoyan could only pout and pour himself a glass of warm water, feeling that the way Gu Ze was serving Nuonuo was like how his own father served his mother.
At this thought, Lei Xiaoyan felt he had forgotten something. But seeing Nuonuo open another bag of potato chips for them to eat, Lei Xiaoyan shook his head and thought, Who cares!
And so, after Lei Xiaoyan had scrounged countless snacks, ice cream, and a lunch at Nuonuo’s house, when he returned home with the setting sun, he was met by his mother, who was holding a bamboo stick, waiting to spank his bottom.
He had left in such a hurry in the morning that he had forgotten to tell his family he was going out.
Accompanied by the rising aroma of dinner, Lei Xiaoyan’s cries of heaven and earth came from a distance, which made Nuonuo, who was eating, even lift his little head in confusion.
