Gu Shaoting widened his eyes as if he didn’t know Shu Pan. “Joy is sick. I’m in no mood to go to work.”

Shu Pan couldn’t help but say, “She’s my daughter. Why should you worry?”

“She’s also…” Gu Shaoting forcefully retracted the word “my”.

“I also like Joy very much.” Gu Shaoting muttered.

“There are so many things to deal with at work.” Shu Pan didn’t want him there. Joy’s condition was stable now and she could easily get a doctor if something cropped up. There was really no need for him to be around. Besides, his days were usually packed.

“I’ll wait for Joy’s fever to subside before I go.” Gu Shaoting was very persistent.

Shu Pan knew that she couldn’t win the argument, so she took out her phone and called her boss to ask for emergency leave.

“Mommy…” Joy drifted in and out of sleep.

“Joy, Mommy is here.” Shu Pan held her other hand.

“Dad… Daddy…” Joy suddenly shouted.

The two adults in the room clearly heard that as their bodies froze. Shu Pan didn’t know what to do.

Joy didn’t seem to realize the kind of reaction her words had triggered and fell asleep again.

Gu Shaoting looked at Shu Pan, then asked carefully, “Who is Joy’s dad? What kind of person is he?”

Shu Pan looked at Joy’s IV tube and said, “Joy’s dad is an a* *hole.”

Shu Pan stopped at that. There was really no way to continue the conversation.

Gu Shaoting’s face turned red and white when he heard that but he couldn’t explain himself.

So, this was what Shu Pan really thought of him. Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt unhappy when he heard that.

Gu Shaoting made a mental note to himself that he must work harder to win back Shu Pan as soon as possible.

With this determination, he didn’t dwell on the subject.

After some IV drip, Joy finally began to perspire and her temperature slowly dropped.

Shu Pan’s worried heart slowly relaxed.

Not long after, Joy woke up and felt much more alert.

“Joy baby, do you feel discomfort anywhere?” Gu Shaoting asked softly.

“Uncle, my hand hurts.” Joy said coquettishly to Gu Shaoting. “Let me blow it.” Gu Shaoting pretended to blow at her IV site.

Was he still the legendary cold and overbearing CEO?

Shu Pan was speechless as she looked at the two of them.

Seeing that the solution bag was almost empty, Shu Pan pressed the bell to call a nurse.

Suddenly, Gu Shaoting’s phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and frowned before he pressed the answer button.

“CEO Gu, when will you be in office, please?” Secretary Zhang asked.

“Probably later.” Gu Shaoting replied.

“CEO Gu, have you forgotten? You have a senior management meeting this morning…” Secretary Zhang felt that his life was really miserable because of all the thankless things he had to do in his job.

“Move it an hour later.” Gu Shaoting recalled that such a meeting had indeed been scheduled.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll inform everyone now.” Secretary Zhang quickly hung

up.

“Please go if you are busy. Joy’s fever is subsiding already.” Shu Pan guessed that Secretary Zhang called to urge him.

“Okay, I’ll come back after a meeting. I’ll bring you two some lunch later.” Gu Shaoting caressed Joy’s head.

It was true. If one hadn’t experienced it, one would never understand the hardships of being a parent.

How much effort had Shu Pan put in to raise Joy on her own?

“Uncle, you have to come back quickly.” Joy said pitifully.

Gu Shaoting wanted to tell Shu Pan that he wasn’t leaving today, but Shu Pan’s glare made him swallow his words..
