Gu Chenye spoke up: "It's not a birthday cake."

"What is that?"

Yan Yirou stared intently at the box, a slight smile playing on her lips, her voice sweet.

Gu Chenye urged her, "Open it and take a look."

"oh."

Yan Yirou put her phone aside, turned on speakerphone, and then began to open the cake box, muttering to herself, "It's clearly just a cake box, isn't there any cake inside?"

"There should be."

Gu Chenye then answered her previous question: "I will spend your birthday with you."

Knowing he would come back, Yan Yirou's eyes were full of smiles, but she said insincerely, "If you are too busy to find the time, it's okay. We are still young, and there's plenty of time in the future!"

Listen to how understanding and considerate she is.

Yan Yirou feels great about herself.

Gu Chenye smiled silently and said two words: "Not in a hurry."

He was well aware of the hypocrisy of his girlfriend and future wife.

Yan Yirou chuckled softly.

The cake box was easily opened, revealing it filled with small desserts and a mini cake. She exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! How come there are so many desserts?"

Even without seeing her face, Gu Chenye could imagine that she was smiling, and her smile was radiant. He unconsciously curled his lips as well: "It seems they have realized their self-worth."

Yan Yirou didn't understand: "What?"

Gu Chenye said gently, "It's to make you happy."

Thinking back to his previous apology, did he think these desserts were because he felt he had wronged her?

For a moment, Yan Yirou's heart pounded like a drum.

She took a bite of the flaky cream puff and felt the sweet taste permeate her very breath.

It's so sweet it warms your heart.

As she ate, Yan Yirou felt a bittersweet feeling in her heart, and tears gradually welled up in her eyes—tears of joy, though.

Hate.

How can he be so good at this!

She felt completely under his control at this moment.

Because she was really happy!

Hearing her eat something, Gu Chenye on the other end of the phone asked, "Is it good?"

"Super delicious~"

Yan Yirou raised her arm to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, ate half a cream puff in one bite, wiped her hands, picked up her phone and said wistfully, "When you come back, shall we go eat together?"

Gu Chenye noticed the subtle change in her voice and gently promised, "Okay."

"Hey, didn't you say there was no cake? There's a small cake inside, and..." Yan Yirou introduced them to him one by one, sharing her joy.

Gu Chenye listened to her quietly, the corners of his mouth always turned up, never turning down.

Yan Yirou sat in the living room and had a long phone conversation with Gu Chenye.

When Yan's parents returned home, they saw the smile on her face and knew she was on the phone with her future son-in-law.

So he didn't say anything and went straight back to his bedroom.

Master Yan said sourly, "Rou Rou didn't even look at me just now."

Madam Yan gave him a speechless look: "I see you every day, what's a little bit more?"

Master Yan: "..."

Does this mean he needs to go on a long trip?

"When our daughter was abroad, I didn't see you missing her that much," Madam Yan added, delivering another blow.

Master Yan retorted, "Shouldn't she have called me first?"

Madam Yan was too lazy to argue with him, so she took his pajamas and stuffed them into his hands: "Go take a bath."

Master Yan went to the bathroom feeling wronged.

Two hours later, Yan Yirou finished her call.

She packed the cake box, straightened it, took several photos, and kept only the best one.

Then he opened the box again and continued taking pictures.

Then she took photos of the desserts individually. Because there were many kinds, she would put two or three together to take pictures.

I took many photos, selected the eight best ones, opened WeChat, and posted them on my Moments.

A beautiful nine-grid photo, accompanied by the caption: Super delicious! I've already tried it, let me show you~

It was sent out not long ago.

Many people, including Ji Moyan, Shangguan Wu, Rongrong, and Su Tiantian, gave her a thumbs up.

Shangguan Wu commented: [This is too much, showing off their love so late at night!]

Jimo Yan left a comment: 【The third brother has finally figured it out.】

Su Tiantian commented: 【Wow! Third Young Master is so romantic!!!】

Yan Yirou opened Shangguan Wu's WeChat in surprise: [How do I know how you guys knew it was him who bought it?]

Shangguan Wu: [Everyone knows that Gu Wu is the eldest brother's man.]

Yan Yirou: [So what?]

Shangguan Wu: [Your family is under a lot of attention right now. Why would Gu Wu buy desserts at your house for no reason? Besides Third Brother's instructions, who else could it be?]

Yan Yirou: [Why can't it be you? You don't love me anymore, sob sob]

Shangguan Wu: [Get away, I don't eat dog food!]

Yan Yirou: [...]

Shangguan Wu: [Gu Wu said you were on the phone with Third Brother. Honestly, didn't you know the gift was from him?]

Yan Yirou touched her heart, which was still pounding rapidly.

Her cheerful voice said, "Oh, it's really delicious! There's just too much of it; I can't finish it all by myself. I'll put it in the fridge later and eat it tomorrow morning, hehehe~"

Shangguan Wu typed: 【Gained ten pounds!】

Yan Yirou: [...]

Shangguan Wu: [It's okay, we can agree to lose weight together.]

Yan Yirou: [...]

She'll really gain weight if she eats too many sweets!!!

This is a sad question!

At the postpartum care center, Shangguan Wu put down her phone and looked at Gu Yunzhen, who was standing by the window making a phone call. Gu Yunzhen looked slim in clothes but was incredibly well-endowed when undressed. Her eyebrows gradually furrowed.

Gu Yunzhen seemed to sense something, put down his phone, and turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

Shangguan Wu complained to him, "Why don't you gain any weight?"

She shared most of the food with him, so why did she get fat?

Gu Yunzhen, who works out every day, said casually, "I don't know either."

Shangguan Wu was speechless for a moment.

Gu Yunzhen's eyes were as deep as the sea as he stared intently at her: "After you finish your postpartum confinement, I'll exercise with you every day to help you lose weight."

He appears very proper, but his mind is actually filled with all sorts of wicked thoughts.

Shangguan Wu, however, had no doubts. Her watery eyes widened in surprise, and the corners of her lips turned up: "Really?"

Gu Yunzhen nodded without showing any emotion: "I was just kidding, it's Xiao Hei."

Xiao Hei is a dog.

Shangguan Wu's eyebrows curved into a smile, and she lay down, saying, "You continue, I'm going to sleep first!"

Gu Yunzhen's thin lips curved into a faint smile.

In fact, most of the time Gu Shiyi was reporting on the progress during the phone call. He only needed to listen to where the progress was going, otherwise he wouldn't have answered the phone in the ward.

"You can continue to keep watch over there; you don't need to come back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yunzhen hung up the phone.

When he looked at the hospital bed, Shangguan Wu was already asleep.

Gu Yunzhen gazed at her with tender affection, strode to the hospital bed, and leaned down to place a kiss on her lips: "Goodnight, my beautiful bride."
