Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!

Chapter 113: Chapter 113 Daughter-in-law Control

Seeing that the two of them returned home so late, Gu’s mother, who was cooking in the kitchen, couldn’t help but tease them, “Why did you two get home so late today? What did you do after school, go on a date?”

This frivolous guess…

Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but frown, “You’re thinking too much. We got home late because Luo Mengmeng was getting her ears pierced and it took some extra time.”

“You both went together to get ear piercings and that’s not a date?” Gu’s mother exclaimed excitedly, waving her spatula.

“Is that what you call a date?” Gu Zhihan retorted, the dismay more evident on his forehead.

Who would go get their ears pierced on a date?

“Just shut up!” Gu’s mother couldn’t stand her son ruining the mood any longer, and after giving him a glare, she turned to admire Mengmeng’s ear piercings, praising, “Our Mengmeng is really brave, daring to get her ears pierced.”

“Actually, I cried a lot… I wasn’t brave at all…”

Mengmeng said somewhat awkwardly, revealing the truth.

“Uh…” Gu’s mother became awkward too. Her flattery had backfired, and after coughing lightly, she added, “Even so, Mengmeng, in your godmother’s heart, you are the bravest!!”

“Godmother, saying that makes me feel really embarrassed.” Despite what Mengmeng said, she was actually not embarrassed at all.

Gu Zhihan: “…”

Enough already!!!

Some people are obsessed with sisters, brothers, or even their mothers, but a son-in-law obsessive is really unheard of!!

“By the way, Mengmeng, you need to be careful with your ears, make sure they don’t get wet or they could become inflamed,” Gu’s mother said as she checked Mengmeng’s ears again, advising her.

“I know, godmother!”

Mengmeng nodded repeatedly, indicating she would be careful.

However, her ear still became inflamed that very night, likely because it accidentally got wet while she was washing her face.

“Husband, my ear hurts…” As they were going to sleep, Mengmeng felt a piercing pain at her ear piercing and quickly crawled out of their bedding, pouting her lips as she approached Gu Zhihan.

“Let me see.” Gu Zhihan, who was reading in bed, immediately put down his book and gestured for the little girl to come over.

The scene looked as if a pet owner was calling over their beloved pet…

Blinking her big eyes, Mengmeng quickly scrambled over, sat in front of him, and tilted her head to show him her ear.

Gu Zhihan glanced at it. “It looks a bit inflamed.”

As he spoke, he casually pulled open a drawer beside him, took out some iodine and a cotton swab, dabbed some on, and carefully applied it to her tender earlobe.

Mengmeng just sat quietly, letting him take care of her.

The warm light was shining down on them both.

Mengmeng’s ear inflammation was quite severe, and Gu Zhihan recalled the shopkeeper’s words from earlier that day—if possible, buying silver earrings could aid in the recovery of the ear piercings.

Perhaps he should buy her a pair of silver earrings…

Gu Zhihan was a man of action; having decided to buy them, he went the next day without telling Luo Mengmeng.

He didn’t immediately give them to Luo Mengmeng after purchasing them because her piercings were only a day old, and the original studs couldn’t be removed yet. They needed to wait another two days. If he gave her the new earrings too soon, Gu Zhihan worried she might be tempted to change them too early.

So, he placed the purchased earrings in his desk drawer.

After they went to school, Gu’s mother who came in to clean, saw the box and was instantly overjoyed, “So the lad remembered my birthday, he even bought his gift already…”
