If Su Rui knew what Tang Xiao was saying at this moment, she would have unceremoniously replied without a second thought, “You think I’m like you?”
But it seems pretty much the case.
Although she and Tang Xiao had previously discussed the matter of digging a pit for their son today, they would treat it as a little secret to satisfy their guilty pleasure… (Spit) to satisfy their teenage hearts, and definitely not tell anyone.
However, after showing Gu Yu Cheng the other Batman and Superman outfits she bought for Gu An An. She felt uncomfortable keeping it to herself. Then, she couldn’t hold back and shared the extremely cute photo with the child’s father.
“Isn’t he cute?” Su Rui asked, holding her phone and looking at Gu Yu Cheng.
“……” I can’t understand what is cute about it.
Gu Yu Cheng’s current expression was almost the same as Zhou Zi Yuan’s. It was just that there were sighs from this old father.
In front of his wife, Chairman Gu’s strong survival instinct kicked in and replied, “Not bad.”
“Right?” Su Rui smiled.
“By the way, there’s also this picture which is very funny.” As Su Rui spoke of this, she turned to another photo.
Gu An An has recently found a bedtime activity to pass the time: nibbling on his feet.
During the photoshoot, Gu An An was lying on his bed and held his feet up out of habit to nibble on it. But he ended up nibbling on a fluffy mermaid’s tail.
Probably because it was the first time he tried this novel “taste”, Gu An An explained with his abilities what ‘dumbstruck’ means.
This results in the photo where a wide-eyed Gu An An foolishly gnawing on his “tail”.
Looking at the photo, Gu Yu Cheng’s first reaction was to comment: Foolish.
But when he looked at Su Rui, who was leaning on him and already bending over with laughter, Gu Yu Cheng swallowed that word down and laughed helplessly.
Only when Su Rui stopped laughing and recovered her composure did Su Rui sit upright in Gu Yu Cheng’s arms.
“It’s late. Get some rest. Don’t you have to go to school tomorrow?” Gu Yu Cheng said as he kissed Su Rui’s forehead.
Su Rui replied, “Alright.” She added, “Our son and I took a bath before you came back. Go wash up.”
“Oh, right. Yu Cheng, don’t brush your teeth yet. I’ll go and make you a cup of honey tea.”
“Thank you, wifey.”
“Okay, let go of me.”
When Su Rui got up and went to the kitchen, Gu Yu Cheng also got up from the sofa.
As he walked past the bed, he looked at Gu An An who was already tired of playing and sleeping in the cot, and a flash of distaste flashed across Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes.
Gu Yu Cheng cast a glance at Gu An An with downcast eyes and uttered, “Wearing whatever you’re given?” And being so cooperative?
Before entering the bathroom, he took out the caterpillar toy that Su Rui rolled into a sea urchin under Gu An An’s arm and placed it back on the table.
Gu Yu Cheng didn’t think much about it when he bought this. At that time, he just took it in his hand, and it had a nice feel.
……
At night, the two of them were lying in bed.
Su Rui blinked and smiled as well when she stared at the man in front of her, who was looking at her intently and had a smile on his face.
“Why are you smiling?” Su Rui asked, raising her hand and poking her fingertips at the corner of Gu Yu Cheng’s mouth.
Gu Yu Cheng held Su Rui’s hand, which was causing havoc, and placed it to his lips for a kiss. He answered while the smile at the corner of his mouth widened, “I thought of something.” Their wedding.
“It’s nothing.” Gu Yu Cheng smiled and said, sweeping the woman directly into his arms.
“Has the date for the graduation ceremony been confirmed?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.
“The 7th of next month.”
The graduation ceremony at University B had another area reserved for family members, and each graduate could invite their family members to the ceremony.
Su Rui already called to inform Father Su, Mother Su and the Gu family during the day.
The only person she didn’t inform yet was Gu Yu Cheng.
“Do you have something on that day?”
Gu Yu Cheng was estimating the time, while Su Rui did not hear his response. She was wondering if the man had something to do that day and couldn’t make it.
Gu Yu Cheng answered somewhat vaguely, “Yes, I might have to sign a contract on that day.”
Not noticing the vagueness in Gu Yu Cheng’s tone, Su Rui was still a bit regretful when she heard Gu Yu Cheng say that.
Su Rui pretended to sigh emotionally and said, “Ay. It looks like you won’t get to see your wife in her graduation’s uniform.”
Su Rui stroked the side of Gu Yu Cheng’s face and gently said, “Go and attend to what you need. I’ll send you pictures then.”
Although she was a little disappointed that Gu Yu Cheng couldn’t attend, it wasn’t to the extent of her being worked up about it.
After all, the graduation ceremony was, frankly speaking, just a ceremony. In that scenario, one might be more emotional than usual.
Life needs a sense of ritual, but that is also based on the completion of serious business.
