It was rare for Shu Pan to leave work early. She called Gu Shaoting after she walked out of her office.
“Hello,” Gu Shaoting’s magnetic voice sounded.
“I’m off work. I’m on my way to pick Joy up from your office.” Shu Pan said calmly, straight to the point.
“Okay. I’m still busy.”
After Shu Pan hung up the phone, she took a taxi to Gu Group.
Shu Pan called to inform Gu Shaoting when she arrived. Shortly after, she saw Joy coming out the main entrance.
“Mommy, Mommy…” Joy’s little figure ran out from the office lobby.
Shu Pan quickly caught her and picked her up.
Secretary Zhang, who brought Joy down, smiled and greeted Shu Pan before he went back upstairs.
Shu Pan looked at Joy’s excited face. She was really contented.
“Let’s go home.” Shu Pan smiled at Joy after she said that. She then put her down and held her hand as they went home.
When they were downstairs of their building, Shu Pan remembered that she wanted to go grocery shopping and took Joy to the market.
“Joy, what shall we eat tonight?” Shu Pan consulted Joy.
“Cola chicken wings. My favorite!” Joy made a gluttonous face.
Shu Pan brought her to the market. It was usually quite fast to shop for a meal but because Joy was so happy, they walked around the market a little.
They bought a lot of things and went home only when Shu Pan couldn’t carry anything more.
Shu Pan was cooking in the kitchen and Joy was playing in the living room when the doorbell rang. The tap was running in the kitchen, so Shu Pan didn’t hear it. Joy heard the doorbell and took a small stool to look through the peephole.
It was Uncle Gu. She tried to open the door, but it wouldn’t open. She had to ask her mommy for help.
Shu Pan was slightly speechless when she saw Gu Shaoting. She didn’t expect him to come over. Fortunately, she had cooked enough food.
After Gu Shaoting walked in, he smelled the aroma of food in the air and felt a little hungry.
It was such a blissful feeling when someone prepared dinner for you, when the family could spend time together in peace and harmony.
During dinner, Joy kept picking up food for Gu Shaoting, which made Shu Pan a little jealous.
Gu Shaoting enjoyed moments like this. He was thinking how he could make the mother and daughter move in with him. After all, the place they were staying at weren’t very safe.
He Ming and Xiao Meng’s relationship were getting hot and heavy. They were together every day, but He Ming didn’t find it annoying. He was enjoying the process more and more.
He wanted to make things official with Xiaomeng.
That night, after the two of them were done making out, He Ming hugged Xiaomeng and gently pleaded in her ear, “Xiaomeng, tomorrow is the weekend. How about you go home with me to meet my family?”
He Ming clearly felt Xiaomeng stiffen in his arms. “What’s wrong?” He Ming asked.
“Oh, nothing, but don’t you think it’s too soon? I am not mentally prepared at all.” Xiaomeng suddenly felt a little nervous. After all, meeting her boyfriend’s parents was no child’s play.
“There’s no need to prepare anything. My parents are very kind people. My mom’s greatest wish is for me to get her a daughter-in-law. You’re so good. She’ll definitely like you. Don’t worry.” He Ming comforted her.
Xiaomeng got even more nervous when she heard that. “Then should I get them gifts? What do your parents like?”
“You don’t need to get them anything. Just go.” He Ming was ecstatic when Xiaomeng agreed.
“Then we’ll get gifts tomorrow morning and go over at noon. What do you think?” Xiaomeng asked.
“Alright, let’s sleep early then.” He Ming tightened his grip on Xiaomeng.
“Okay, good night.” Ye Xiaomeng closed her eyes and fell asleep in his arms.
He Ming heard calm breathing from his chest and knew that Xiaomeng was asleep, so he fell asleep peacefully too..
