Looking at Xiangyan whose big eyes were shining because of excitement, Gu Yan couldn’t stop laughing.
“I behave well every day. I have meals on time. I study hard. And my head no longer hurts. I miss you. I know you must miss me, too. My dad and I have a big present for you. Be ready!” After knowing Gu Yan was his mother, Mo Xiangyan couldn’t call her aunt anymore.
Mo Xiangyan couldn’t wait to see Gu Yan and tell her that he was her best gift. He wanted to tell her that he didn’t blame her. On the contrary, he would win his grandmother’s support, protect her with his father and make her happy forever.
“You imp, what gift do you have for me?” Mo Yichen appeared in the screen after Xiangyan stepped back. Gu Yan looked at Mo Yichen’s face. His angular facial features were like carved by knives and all was deeply imprinted in Gu Yan’s heart. Gu Yan didn’t say anything to Mo Yichen. They just looked at each other’s eyes, but they could understand the affection between them.
“Since it is a big surprise, of course I can’t tell you in advance. But I am sure that you must be… delighted.” To prove that he studied hard, Mo Xiangyan used a new word. When Gu Yan and Mo Yichen heard what he said, both they burst into laughter. Mo Xiangyan was embarrassed by their laughter. He lowered his head and hid behind Mo Yichen.
“Xiangyan! Xiangyan! It’s too late. Why don’t you go to bed? Go to sleep quickly. Don’t you have class tomorrow?” Hearing the sounds from the room, Li Yunhong confused what they were doing and why they didn’t go to sleep so late. Then Li Yunhong pushed the unlocked door and asked Mo Xiangyan to go back to his room and go to bed.
“Nope, grandmother! I want to sleep with my dad.” Mo Xiangyan turned back to cover the mobile phone standing on the table, and made lovely expression to his grandmother. Li Yunhong really liked Mo Xiangyan’s lovely face and didn’t pester any more. She was glad to see Mo Yichen and Mo Xiangyan had a good relationship. She just told Mo Yichen to take Mo Xiangyan to go to sleep quickly because children needed enough sleep.
Mo Yichen agreed and watched his mother go out of the room.
“Is everything ok?” Looking at Gu Yan’s tender smile, Mo Yichen asked warmly.
“Yes, everything goes well. They are almost done. How are you these days?” Gu Yan asked seriously. She cared more about them than herself.
“We are both good. There is nothing to worry. When the weekends come, I’ll bring Xiangyan to you and spend weekends together with you.” Mo Yichen knew that Xiangyan was the best gift for Gu Yan.
When Gu Yan heard what Mo Yichen said, she kicked up her heels and couldn’t help rising her tone. When Mo Yichen and Mo Xiangyan saw her expression, they also couldn’t help laughing.
When Gu Yan saw them laughing, her face turned red. Although they were the closest ones for her, Gu Yan often felt shy and embarrassed in front of them. But this feeling included happiness and sweetness.
Mo Yichen asked his son to go to sleep. Mo Xiangyan said good night to Gu Yan with reluctance.
Mo Yichen said to the microphone in a low voice when his son didn’t notice him, “I miss you so much. Have a sweet dream.”
But Mo Yichen didn’t hang up the phone, as if he was waiting the response of Gu Yan. It was great that Gu Yan didn’t make him upset. “I miss you, too. I am waiting for you to come back. Good night!” Gu Yan didn’t feel shy. Since she missed Mo Yichen so much, she must let him know what she thought. They were concerned about each other because of the tacit understanding between them.
Then Mo Yichen hung up the phone and took his son to go to bed. Xiangyan slept in Mo Yichen’s arms, and soon his breathing became steady. Mo Yichen also gradually felt sleepy, and fell asleep unconsciously.
After ending the phone call with them, Gu Yan was full of energy and was not sleepy. She even wanted to deal with the rest work of today. But she thought if Mo Yichen stayed with her, he would tell her to have a rest. Anyway, the work was almost over, and it was not meaningful to stay up late.
Then she went into the bedroom. It had been two days since Mo Yichen left, but it seemed that his shadow and odor still stayed all over the room. Gu Yan put her face into Mo Yichen’s pillow and deeply smelt his odor. With a sweet smile on the corners of Gu Yan’s mouth, she fell asleep.
Early in the next morning, Gu Yan was woken up by a telephone ring. She frowned and opened her eyes. She groped for her phone and found it was Qi Changfeng’s call.
“What’s happened?” Gu Yan said angrily.
Listening to Gu Yan’s lazy voice with anger, Qi Changfeng knew that he made her angry and couldn’t help but scratch his hair.
“Do you have any idea what time it is now? Is this how being a boss?”
“It is not the time, is it? Tell me what happened. What made you call me so early in the morning?” Gu Yan said angrily. If there was nothing important, she must give a lesson to Qi Changfeng, especially when he interrupted her dream.
“I just want to ask you how Zhongtu’s project is going. I remember you submitted the design yesterday. Is he satisfied?” Qi Changfeng knew better than anyone else how smart and picky Mr. Li was. Qi Changfeng was afraid that Gu Yan would suffer losses. That was why Qi Changfeng called her anxiously. But Gu Yan didn’t appreciate it and even blamed him for disturbing her dream.
Hearing Qi Changfeng get down to business about her, Gu Yan cleared up her mood and said formally, “Everything is going well. Mr. Li is very nice and thoughtful. He is also active to cooperate with us, and gives us a lot of constructive suggestions.”
After Gu Yan stretched herself silently, she continued with emotion, “How wonderful it will be if each Party A is so nice and proficient.”
When Qi Changfeng heard what Gu Yan said, he was so surprised. Was Mr. Li a nice man? Mr. Li was a total business man and always put interests at first. Speaking of Mr. Li, Qi Changfeng felt angry, but he couldn’t lose his temper to Gu Yan. When he knew everything went well, Qi Changfeng finally set his mind at rest.
It seemed that Mr. Li was a gentle man and did not do something that Qi Changfeng despised. After a short talk with Gu Yan, Qi Changfeng hung up the phone. He also had too many things to deal with.
Since Gu Yan wake up, she chose to get up. Gu Yan turned over and sat up. After a few minutes, she was sober totally. Then she got out of bed, and headed to the bathroom to wash up.
Then Gu Yan dressed in a gentle and smart suit, and made a light make-up, which made her look amiable and energetic. She was very satisfied with that. Remembering what Jiang Jingcheng said yesterday, she was afraid that she might made her staff uncomfortable, so she tried her best to look gentle.
Then Gu Yan made a fast breakfast. After breakfast, she went to the company by taxi.
