423 Lu Gan’s Depression
Lu Suo puffed up his cheeks and said, “Alright. I’ll be good. Will you also give me a handmade card on my birthday?”
Song Yujin nodded.
“Sure.”
He did not mind doing the same thing for Lu Suo and Lu Gan.
Since Song Yujin had agreed, Lu Suo was happy.
“Goodnight.”
After saying that, he returned to his bedroom.
Song Yujin closed the door. He walked towards his desk, turned on the table lamp, and took out the unfinished greeting card. Then, he continued working on it.
The greeting card was very colorful.
‘I hope she likes it. Sigh… It’s my fault for not asking about her preference beforehand.’
Lu Gan, Lu Suo, and Song Yujin had each prepared their own gift for Song Ci. All of them were filled with sincerity.
During breakfast the next day, Lu Suo asked Lu Gan curiously, “Is mommy coming back today?”
“Yes.”
“So her birthday is the day after tomorrow?”
Lu Suo took a sip of milk. The stain made it look like he had a white mustache.
Lu Gan nodded.
“Daddy, did you order a cake?”
“Aren’t you a little worrywart?”
“It’s because I want to eat cake.”
Lu Suo sounded extremely innocent and childlike.
Lu Gan could not help but smile.
“You can eat as much cake as you like.”
“Mommy should eat more though. It’s her birthday.”
Lu Suo continued, “Daddy, you didn’t forget to prepare a gift for her, right?”
“You don’t need to remind me. What about you?”
Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.
Lu Suo puffed up his chest proudly.
“I have. Big brother did too.”
Upon hearing that, Lu Gan looked at Song Yujin. The latter was eating quietly.
Song Yujin nodded.
“He’s right.”
“Alright, you two should hurry up and finish breakfast. Don’t be late for school.”
“Oh…”
Lu Suo pouted and his head drooped.
‘I really don’t want to attend school!’
After the children had gone to school, Lu Gan immediately started his rehabilitation on the third floor. He practiced all morning and took a shower at noon.
Lu Gan’s body was full of bruises.
‘Hmm… This might be a problem. If Song Ci saw these bruises, she would definitely be curious and upset. I should try avoiding being intimate for the time being. Sigh… How depressing.’
After changing clothes, Lu Gan went to the study room.
Song Ci arrived around one o’clock. Mary was elated to see her.
After helping Song Ci with her luggage, Mary told her what happened at home while she was away. Nothing big transpired. It was just the daily lives of Song Yujin and Lu Suo. Despite that, Song Ci listened attentively. She did not want to miss out on the children’s growing moments.
“Master Lu is in the study.”
Song Ci nodded and headed to the study room. She pushed open the door gently and poked her head in.
Lu Gan looked up and saw Song Ci’s smiling face. He put down his pen and leaned back against the chair.
‘She arrived a little later than the last time.’
Song Ci walked in and said, “I’m back.”
