    Finally, when Gu Shaoting finished reading the documents, he didn’t stay for a moment longer. He nned to pick Joy up.


    Along the way, Joy kept asking. The little girl really missed her Mommy.


    Before Gu Shaoting went home, he went to the supermarket with Joy and bought two big bags of groceries. He didn’t want Shu Pan to go out again.


    When they returned home and saw Shu Pan, Joy was really happy.


    Fortunately, the swelling on Shu Pan’s face had gone down. Otherwise, she would have scared the child.


    “Mommy, where did you go? Why didn’t I see you? I went to godmother’s house.” The child was so happy she saw her mom that she spoke incoherently.


    “Mommy was busy. But I’m free now.” Shu Pan patted Joy’s head, feeling a


    lingering fear. She once thought that she would never see Joy again.


    Really, one would never know which woulde first, an ident or tomorrow.


    In the past, Shu Pan thought that this was just a rhetorical question. It was not until this ident that she truly understood.


    Therefore, her current state of mind was to cherish the present and not think about past grudges. After all, the rest of her life was very short.


    With her Mom’sfort, Joy returned to her former self.


    Gu Shaoting smiledfortably as he watched the mother and daughter cuddling.


    Dinner was prepared by Shu Pan. Gu Shaoting hadn’t cooked once in his life. He wanted to order takeout, but Shu Pan saw that they had brought back two full bags of groceries and decided she could do the cooking. After all, her hands and feet were not injured.


    A sumptuous dinner made everyone very satisfied. After Joy finished eating, she returned to her girl’s room. She missed it very much, but she didn’t dare to tell Shu Pan about it.


    The two adults at the dining table were still drinking the soup slowly.


    “Panpan, are you feeling better? I’ll get a boiled egg for your faceter. I heard that it’s very effective in reducing swelling.” Gu Shaoting saw that Shu Pan’s face was still slightly swollen and remembered the old-fashioned method that Secretary Zhang had mentioned before.


    “No need. I’m much better. I can go back to work in two days.” Shu Pan said nonchntly.


    Gu Shaoting frowned. “You’re going back to work so soon? Let’s talk about it after you have rested.”


    Gu Shaoting didn’t want Shu Pan to return to work so soon. After all, she had suffered such a big shock.


    “Panpan, think carefully again. Have you offended anyone?” Gu Shaoting


    continued to ask. He didn’t know if He Ming could find the answer. He wanted to know in advance so that he could be on guard.


    “No, I didn’t.” Shu Pan pondered for a moment and then shook her head. She had a little quarrel with MO Lan in thepany, but MO Lan wouldn’t have done this to her.


    Then there was Tong Fei and Song Can, but Shu Pan didn’t say it out loud. After all, that person was her Mom. Besides, Song Can might have just said it out loud without any action.


    “You still have to be careful.” Seeing that Shu Pan didn’t know why she was attacked, Gu Shaoting reminded her.


    “All right, I know.” Shu Pan looked at him and nodded.


    The current Gu Shaoting waspletely different from before. He used to be cold-faced to people, but now?


    She felt like he had changed into a different person. To outsiders, he is still a cold-faced man but to Joy and her, he was very warm and thoughtful. Sometimes, she even felt he was a little naggy.


    She didn’t know if this change was because of them. She didn’t think much of it before, but this ident had given her too much shock.


    His calm but firm words, “Don’t worry, I’m here!” made her feel especially at ease and secure.


    She used to think that she could do it alone, but after encountering this danger, she suddenly realized that she was a woman and she also wanted to have someone to rely on..
