âYes, yes. You have white hair. Youâre an old man now.â Shu Pan pretended to be serious.
Gu Shaoting smiled slightly and patted Shu Panâs buttocks. Then he said in an extremely dangerous tone, âHmph! Old man? Have you ever seen such a handsome old man?â
âAlright. I was wrong.â Shu Pan raised her hands in surrender.
âPanpanâ¦â His gaze was deep and serene, and his voice was low and hoarse as if the eighteen-year-old NV Er Hong Wine.
She looked at him and into his eyes that were as deep as the vast starry sky. Listening to his magnetic and deep voice, she unconsciously reached out and wrapped her arms around his lean and strong waist.
She didnât say anything, but he could feel her subtle movements and gaze in his heart.
âPanpanâ¦â He called her name again in a hoarse voice and kissed her again. Their lips and teeth collided, and the kiss slowly deepened.
At this moment, he only had her in his eyes, and so did she.
The next day.
It was late in the morning when Shu Pan slowly woke up. After the incident that happened last time, she had taken a leave of absence to rest at home.
She moved her body and felt a little weak.
She opened her eyes and instinctively looked out the window. However, she
didnât see Gu Shaoting.
She grabbed her phone and turned it on. It was almost noon. No wonder it was so quiet.
She found it unbelievable. How could she sleep so well now?
She got up and saw that Gu Shaoting and Joy were not at home, so she hastily made a bowl of noodles.
She looked at the time and called her father.
âDad, how have you been recently?â Shu Pan felt that she was quite unfilial since she rarely went back.
âIâm pretty goodâ¦â Shu Laide wanted to say something, but Auntie Lu had already snatched the phone away.
âPanpan, your dadâs birthday is next week. Are you free to come back? When the time comes, Iâll set a date for you and Shaoting to come back.â She had already mentioned it to Shu Pan the last time she went home, but she had almost forgotten about it.
âIâm free. Iâll ask him about this again. Heâs back from a business trip and has been quite busy recently. I donât know if he has time.â Even if Shupan had to ask for leave, she still wanted to go back to celebrate her fatherâs birthday.
However, she had to discuss it with Gu Shaoting to see if he had time.
âThatâs good. Remember to tell him. You guys can discuss it. We can accommodate your time.â Auntie Lu had a purpose. She wanted to ask Gu Shaoting if he had any plans to get married. What was the point of wasting time like this?
âAlright, I got it.â Shu Pan didnât know Auntie Luâs purpose, so she didnât understand why Gu Shaoting had to go back.
Auntie Lu suddenly thought of Gu Shaotingâs powerful mother. âBy the way, does Shaotingâs mother know that you two are together? Whatâs her attitude towards you now?â
âYes, Auntie Lu. Donât worry. We donât live together, so we wonât have a chance to see her. Besides, this matter depends on Shaotingâs attitude.â
Shu Pan felt a little guilty for making them so worried.
âThatâs good. If she bullies you, donât let yourself suffer. Weâre here,â said Auntie Lu firmly.
âAlright.â Shu Pan felt a lump in her throat and nodded her head in gratitude.
Auntie Lu was about to finish what she wanted to say. Recalling Gu Shaotingâs previous behavior, she reminded her again and again, âRemember to ask him what I just said.â
âYes, 1 will.â
She looked at the time. Gu Shaoting and Joy hadnât come back yet. Joy had dance class today and would probably be late.
Shu Pan turned on the TV and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
She was nimble and familiar with housework, so she quickly prepared three dishes and a soup.
She looked at the time. They were still not back yet. It was already half past six.
She thought for a moment, then dialed Gu Shaotingâs phone..
