"Boohoo, Daddy is just so pitiful." Zun Zun pretended to say, "Daddy must think we all forgot his birthday. Mommy, we’re really so cruel."
Sheng Sheng comforted him, "When Daddy sees us tonight, he’ll definitely be surprised. Then he won’t be so pitiful."
"Yeah, yeah, we have to surprise Daddy." Logic instantly won over emotion, and Zun Zun imdiately felt that being pitiful couldn’t expose the plan.
Chenxing collected her sympathy, thinking that Shaocheng must be very sad right now. Ahh, she was already feeling uneasy, really wanted to call Shaocheng and tell him she’d definitely be back tonight. She really was so cruel!
Gu Shaocheng sat at ho, smoking and looking at docunts. There were really a ton of things to do today, and the secretary was in and out. He felt annoyed, but a man in his thirties wouldn’t show emotion on his face, no matter how irritated, he’d still suppress his temper to get things done.
During this ti, several brothers sent gifts.
"Bro, I have sothing to do tonight, so I won’t be able to have dinner with you. Enjoy it with your wife." Yan Fengchi was the first to call, Gu Shaocheng responded with a simple ’hmm’.
Bai Wuqing also called to say he was on a business trip abroad and couldn’t make it back, so he’d have Jiajia deliver his gift instead.
On the phone, Gu Shaocheng said, "I wasn’t planning to celebrate anyway, your thoughts alone are enough."
Bai Wuqing: "Hm, let’s leave it at that. Happy birthday."
"Thanks."
Gu Shaocheng hung up the phone, feeling sullen. He hadn’t planned on having a PARTY; he wanted to spend it with Chenxing and the kids. Now, the three mischievous ones had gone off to play out of sight, casting his birthday out of mind. Looks like he’d spend the night alone, though luckily Hua Hua and Baihao were still around. He’d call them later to co to the Gu Family for dinner.
Who knew that by evening, even Baihao called to say he couldn’t make it to dinner because Wubai had a fever and Huanhuan had taken Wubai to the hospital. What else could Gu Shaocheng say but to tell him to hurry to the hospital?
On his birthday, he’d beco a lonely soul.
Oh, at least there’s Hua Hua.
Hua Hua wouldn’t forget his birthday. He sent a blessing ssage early in the morning and assured he’d definitely co for dinner, not disappointing Shaocheng’s affection for him. As for Chenxing, she’s just an ungrateful wolf.
Worried about any incidents, Gu Shaocheng still sent a ssage to confirm with Hua Hua, asking if he’d be dining at ho that night. Hua Hua assured he’d be there but might co a little late, maybe around 7 PM.
So, it seed he’d be having dinner with Hua Hua and Ling Yin—just the three n...
Feeling depressed.
"Butler."
The old butler slowly walked to his side, "Inform the kitchen we’ll be dining with just , Hua Hua, Ling Yin, oh, and mother-in-law tonight."
The butler suggested, "Sir, the moonlight is nice tonight; why not have dinner in the courtyard?"
Gu Shaocheng waved dismissively, "Arrange whatever you like."
He buried himself in paperwork, continuing with business matters.
Whatever he did felt pointless, yet he was helpless.
A man in his thirties simply couldn’t bring himself to call Chenxing and say it’s his birthday—a disgraceful act. So he could only harbor a playful grudge in his heart, gripping his pen hard while signing his na, each stroke heavy and forceful.
"Hahaha, look at the cake Mommy made, isn’t it beautiful?" Chenxing carefully placed the cake into the box.
