Finally, when Gu Shaoting finished reading the documents, he didnât stay for a moment longer. He planned to pick Joy up.
Along the way, Joy kept asking. The little girl really missed her Mommy.
Before Gu Shaoting went home, he went to the supermarket with Joy and bought two big bags of groceries. He didnât want Shu Pan to go out again.
When they returned home and saw Shu Pan, Joy was really happy.
Fortunately, the swelling on Shu Panâs face had gone down. Otherwise, she would have scared the child.
âMommy, where did you go? Why didnât I see you? I went to godmotherâs house.â The child was so happy she saw her mom that she spoke incoherently.
âMommy was busy. But Iâm free now.â Shu Pan patted Joyâs head, feeling a
lingering fear. She once thought that she would never see Joy again.
Really, one would never know which would come first, an accident or tomorrow.
In the past, Shu Pan thought that this was just a rhetorical question. It was not until this accident that she truly understood.
Therefore, her current state of mind was to cherish the present and not think about past grudges. After all, the rest of her life was very short.
With her Momâs comfort, Joy returned to her former self.
Gu Shaoting smiled comfortably as he watched the mother and daughter cuddling.
Dinner was prepared by Shu Pan. Gu Shaoting hadnât cooked once in his life. He wanted to order takeout, but Shu Pan saw that they had brought back two full bags of groceries and decided she could do the cooking. After all, her hands and feet were not injured.
A sumptuous dinner made everyone very satisfied. After Joy finished eating, she returned to her girlâs room. She missed it very much, but she didnât dare to tell Shu Pan about it.
The two adults at the dining table were still drinking the soup slowly.
âPanpan, are you feeling better? Iâll get a boiled egg for your face later. I heard that itâs very effective in reducing swelling.â Gu Shaoting saw that Shu Panâs face was still slightly swollen and remembered the old-fashioned method that Secretary Zhang had mentioned before.
âNo need. Iâm much better. I can go back to work in two days.â Shu Pan said nonchalantly.
Gu Shaoting frowned. âYouâre going back to work so soon? Letâs talk about it after you have rested.â
Gu Shaoting didnât want Shu Pan to return to work so soon. After all, she had suffered such a big shock.
âPanpan, think carefully again. Have you offended anyone?â Gu Shaoting
continued to ask. He didnât know if He Ming could find the answer. He wanted to know in advance so that he could be on guard.
âNo, I didnât.â Shu Pan pondered for a moment and then shook her head. She had a little quarrel with MO Lan in the company, but MO Lan wouldnât have done this to her.
Then there was Tong Fei and Song Can, but Shu Pan didnât say it out loud. After all, that person was her Mom. Besides, Song Can might have just said it out loud without any action.
âYou still have to be careful.â Seeing that Shu Pan didnât know why she was attacked, Gu Shaoting reminded her.
âAll right, I know.â Shu Pan looked at him and nodded. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The current Gu Shaoting was completely different from before. He used to be cold-faced to people, but now?
She felt like he had changed into a different person. To outsiders, he is still a cold-faced man but to Joy and her, he was very warm and thoughtful. Sometimes, she even felt he was a little naggy.
She didnât know if this change was because of them. She didnât think much of it before, but this accident had given her too much shock.
His calm but firm words, âDonât worry, Iâm here!â made her feel especially at ease and secure.
She used to think that she could do it alone, but after encountering this danger, she suddenly realized that she was a woman and she also wanted to have someone to rely on..
