As he finished speaking, his gaze fell on the document, beginning to review it.
Seeing this, Gu Li puffed out her cheeks, “Well, I’m off then. Are you going to sleep in the study tonight?”
From his demeanor, it appeared that he planned on sleeping there. After all, he had never shared the bed with her, and she was accustomed to it.
“Hmm.”
Mo Shiting slightly nodded, not really hearing her last sentence. So, by the time he was ready to head back to his room in the middle of the night, he discovered that the door was locked from the inside.
Mo Shiting:”???”
The next day, Gu Li comfortably slept until the crack of dawn.
Thanks to her quick thinking last night, she had locked the door. Otherwise, Brother Ting might have dragged her out of bed early in the morning to go running.
She was still on her period and didn’t feel like exercising at all.
The maids here were already used to Gu Li waking up late, so they weren’t surprised or shocked.
As she descended the stairs, she saw Auntie Guan busily instructing the maids to dust the furniture.
Looking at the furniture, Gu Li realized these pieces were all brand new. The entire living room was completely transformed, so she curiously asked, “Auntie Guan, what’s going on?”
Upon seeing her, Auntie Guan happily explained, “Young Madam, all these tables, chairs, and cabinets were custom-made and airfreighted from overseas by the young master. As you can see, their corners are smooth and won’t hurt if you bump into them. Certainly, the young master wouldn’t want you to get hurt, that’s why he replaced all the furniture.”
“Really?”
Gu Li smiled slightly, her mood soaring.
“Of course.”
Auntie Guan immediately added, “You remember how you kept accidentally bumping into things when you first moved here, right? Undoubtedly the young master must have felt bad seeing that.”
“Hehe…”
Gu Li chuckled awkwardly, then heard Auntie Guan sigh, “Our young master might seem cold-hearted, but he actually knows how to take care of his wife. Young Madam, you have to cherish him.”
“I’ll be sure to, don’t worry.”
Gu Li spoke sincerely, feeling warm inside.
Sometime after breakfast, she looked at her phone and saw that it was already 1030.
Gu Li immediately decided to cook a lavish lunch for Mo Shiting and bring it to his office.
However, when she told Auntie Guan about her plan, Auntie Guan looked at her in surprise: “Young Madam, didn’t you know the young master left the country this morning?”
Gu Li: “Wait, what???”
Mo Shiting had gone to Country E, taking Gu Li’s heart with him.
She headed back to her room and paced anxiously back and forth.
It was all her fault for sleeping like a sloth today and not knowing about his departure.
No wonder he always thought she was an immature child. She indeed was acting like one, and didn’t fit the role of a caring and gentle wife at all.
Ahh!
She had nothing but her looks and intelligence.
Little Pear threw herself dramatically onto the sofa, feeling uncharacteristically anxious.
It was then that her phone started ringing, drawing her attention.
Upon seeing the caller ID, Gu Li immediately perked up: “Doctor.”
An hour later, at Capital City International Airport.
Da Ha and Gu Li rushed to the international arrivals hall to wait for Doctor
Duan, a dermatologist from Country H who had travelled thousands of miles to be here.
After waiting for a long time with no sight of Doctor Duan, Da Ha couldn’t help but say, “Boss, maybe that old guy tricked you? He should’ve been out by now.”
“Don’t worry, the doctor wouldn’t deceive me about his antique Go board. He must have been held up by something.”
Gu Li said, waiting expectantly.
The next moment, she spotted an elderly man dressed in a traditional Chinese suit emerging from the passenger terminal. His manner was energetic and hale.
“Doctor–”
Gu Li’s eyes lit up, and she immediately dashed over.
“Doctor, you’ve finally arrived. I’ve missed you so much, Little Pear..”
