The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Role Strikes Back

C198

It was already midnight when Zhou Yu and Gu Ye returned home. The winter in Guangzhou was still chilly at night. Zhou Yu's good spirits were just exhausted. This time, she was actually carried into the house by Gu Ye.
    Apart from the dark circles under his eyes, Gu Ye looked energetic.

    Zhou Yu opened her eyes and looked at the smug look on his face, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

    When she was thinking about it in the office, she was thinking that at least the sofa in Gu Ye's office was quite comfortable. Who knew that this man would come to the desk and push her against the wall?

    She was almost exhausted to death.

    After settling his wife down, Gu Ye went to Zhu Xiaozhen's room to pick up Yueyue. He knocked on the door and was a little hesitant for fear of disturbing Zhu Xiaozhen, but Zhu Xiaozhen and the little one were not asleep yet.

    Zhu Xiaozhen hugged Yueyue and said with a smile: "Look, isn't Dad coming back?"

    The little guy was reading the picture book with a smile on his face, but when he saw clearly who the man outside was, his big eyes immediately became wet, and he opened his little mouth and started crying loudly.

    Gu Ye's heart tightened and he quickly took the child over.

    Zhu Xiaozhen felt distressed when she saw Yueyue like this, and whispered to Gu Ye: "She knew you were coming back today, and she has been waiting for you. She refused to go to bed. She also told her when you called in the afternoon to say you would be back late. She wanted to see you come back with her own eyes to feel at ease."

    Gu Ye's hand tightened slightly, and he nodded gratefully to Zhu Xiaozhen, "I understand. Thank you for your hard work."

    Then he carried Yueyue back to the room to coax her.

    Zhou Yu woke up instantly after hearing Yueyue's crying. The couple coaxed the little one for a long time before they finally made her fall asleep. Yueyue fell asleep between Gu Ye and Zhou Yu, holding the corner of each person's clothes with her two little hands and snoring.

    Zhou Yu's eyes turned red with guilt, "He must have been sleepy a long time ago."

    She wanted to pull Yueyue's hand away and find a handkerchief to wipe Yueyue's face, but as soon as her hand touched the plump white fingers, the little one started to hum uneasily.

    Zhou Yu didn't dare to move. She lay beside Yueyue and kissed her face again and again, with endless tenderness in her eyes.

    Looking at the mother and daughter like this, Gu Ye finally realized that what Zhou Yu said about her daughter waiting for him was not just words, but the little girl was really waiting for him.

    The sight of Zhou Yu and Yue Yue snuggling together made Gu Ye feel warm, but also made him feel very guilty.

    Although he came back quite often in the past two years, Zhou Yu was in charge of most of the household affairs. Plus the work at the store, she was actually tired too, but she never showed it in front of him.

    It's even worse for Yueyue. Last year, we could see each other three times a week, but starting from the middle of this year, we can only see each other once a week. I don't know if the little one has some memories of the first few months after her birth, but every time Gu Ye comes back, she becomes particularly dependent on him, and they are reluctant to part when they are apart.

    He began to silently figure out how he could make himself more financially and in time sufficient as quickly as possible so that his family could be reunited as soon as possible.
