The right time Shu Pan was thinking about came soon.

After the two of them made up, their days were calm and wonderful.

Gu Shaoting became even more clingy and followed Shu Pan everywhere, making her feel a little stifled at times.

After all, he cared about her and thought about her all the time.

Today when Shu Pan saw someone carrying a birthday cake, she suddenly remembered that Gu Shaoting’s birthday was coming up. Her memory had deteriorated since she got pregnant; she was very forgetful.

Since his birthday was coming up, she needed to get him a gift. This man could be quite shameless sometimes. If he remembered it, he would probably pester her for a present.

But what should she give him? A wallet? Shirt? Or a leather belt? She seemed to have given him those things before, she had to get him something different.

Shu Pan sat pondering for a long time until an idea came to her. She knew what to give him. He would love the gift and would probably jump with joy when he got it.

Shu Pan quickly went on with the preparations.

Gu Shaoting’s birthday soon arrived. As he had something to deal with on that day, he had to leave the house. Auntie Li also had something to deal with at home, so she went back to her hometown for a few days. Joy’s grandpa wasn’t home either, so Shu Pan took leave from work to prepare her surprise for Gu Shaoting.

Gu Shaoting was distracted the whole day after Shu Pan mentioned that she wasn’t feeling well in the morning hence would take a day off from work. He couldn’t help but wonder what Shu Pan would do…

Finally, it was afternoon. At around 6 p.m., Gu Shaoting drove back to the villa.

When he was near home, he regretted not going home earlier. What could be more important than Shu Pan? She must be all alone at home now. Joy was staying at her other grandfather’s place. Even the butler wasn’t at home. He wondered what Shu Pan was doing with herself at home.

Gu Shaoting got a little annoyed at the thought of it.

He would call a restaurant later to have dinner delivered to the house. Shu Pan said that she wasn’t feeling well, so she shouldn’t trouble herself with cooking.

After his car entered Qiyuan, he saw that the lights in the kitchen and living room were on. His heart started racing.

Why was the kitchen light on? Was Shu Pan cooking?

He could not help but frown. He felt that she shouldn’t trouble herself when she wasn’t feeling well.

He parked the car and quickly got out. He took out his keys and opened the front door. As soon as he entered the house, he heard cooking sounds from the kitchen.

He changed into his slippers at the foyer and took a few deep breaths before he walked into the kitchen.

He knew that Shu Pan was the one cooking because she was the only person in the house.

Even so, when he saw her beautiful back in the kitchen, he was stunned. He felt like he was in a dream in which Shu Pan wore a simple ponytail, a pair of light blue slippers, and a pink apron. She was holding a spatula and was carefully tasting the food on it.

After tasting the food, she felt that it was a little bland, so she added more salt. And then she tasted the food again…

Gu Shaoting’s gaze slowly softened as he watched her. He said, “Honey, why are you cooking? It’s hard work. Aren’t you feeling unwell? Why aren’t you resting?”

Shu Pan was startled by his sudden words that her entire body shook. She turned around and saw his large eyes staring at her. She couldn’t help but pat her chest and said, “When did you get home? You nearly startled me to death.”

Shu Pan was so focused on cooking that she didn’t even notice that he had come home and was standing behind her. Today was his birthday. She lied in the morning that she wasn’t feeling well, so she could prepare his birthday surprise at home.
