“Oh? Congratulations! What’s up? Did Xiaomeng accept your proposal?” Gu Shaoting put down what he was doing, eager for gossip.

“Yeah, she said yes. I’m getting ready for the wedding, and there’s another piece of good news: I’m going to be a dad,” He Ming announced happily.

“Wow, double happiness for you then,” Gu Shaoting teased, but he was genuinely happy for his friend.

“It feels surreal, like a dream. Before I met Xiaomeng, I never thought about getting married or having children,” He Ming reflected, aware of his past recklessness.

“Marriage is wonderful. Take your time to enjoy it. You go ahead and focus on your own affairs; I’ve got things under control at the company,” Gu Shaoting, speaking from experience, shared some wisdom.

“Thanks, I appreciate it.” After chatting for a while, He Ming bid farewell to Gu Shaoting and left.

In the afternoon, Gu Shaoting canceled his social engagements and went home early.

Shu Pan was sitting on the sofa, feeling a bit bored since Joy hadn’t returned from Grandpa’s house yet.

Hearing the door open, she turned her head to see Gu Shaoting.

“I thought you had a social engagement? Why are you back so early?” Shu Pan looked surprised.

“It wasn’t anything important, so I canceled it,” Gu Shaoting walked over and sat beside Shu Pan.

“I see. Have you eaten yet?” Shu Pan asked with concern.

“No, I was hoping for some of your noodles,” Gu Shaoting said with a hint of gluttony.

“Alright, I’ll make some for you now.” Shu Pan felt a bit guilty; since moving to Qiyuan, Auntie Li had been doing most of the cooking, and she rarely cooked anymore.

Watching Shu Pan bustling around, Gu Shaoting felt a wave of sweetness.

Indeed, a fulfilling marriage can give one endless motivation.

He wondered if he had been out of his mind before, divorcing Shu Pan, wasting four years of his life.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late now. Hearing about He Ming’s wedding today made him quite contemplative.

A while later, Shu Pan emerged with a bowl of noodles.

“Shaoting, the noodles are ready. Come and eat,” Shu Pan said tenderly to Gu Shaoting.

“Alright, thanks, dear,” Gu Shaoting replied, coming over and stealing a whiff.

Holding the chopsticks elegantly, Gu Shaoting ate the noodles. “Did you know that He Ming and Xiaomeng are getting married?” he asked.

After taking a bite of the noodles, Gu Shaoting suddenly remembered the news and shared it with Shu Pan.

“Really? That’s great.” She had been quite busy lately and hadn’t contacted Xiaomeng for a few days.

She couldn’t believe she was hearing such good news now.

“Yeah, He Ming is already preparing for the wedding,” Gu Shaoting said as he chatted with Shu Pan.

“Honey, we need to step up our efforts. He Ming is going to be a dad,” Gu Shaoting lamented. They had been preparing for so long, but there had been no progress.

“Don’t talk nonsense. These things are about fate. Let’s go with the flow,” Shu Pan blushed at his words.

“We can’t lose to them. We got married before them,” Gu Shaoting admitted. Although they already had Joy, he couldn’t participate much in her early years, so he wanted to have another child now to make up for it.

“Forget it, I’ll call Xiaomeng,” Shu Pan said, realizing he was getting carried away. She picked up her phone and walked to the balcony.

Shu Pan dialed Xiaomeng’s number only to find out that she had already returned home.

“Xiaomeng, how have you been these days? Don’t overexert yourself and take care,” Shu Pan advised, feeling more nervous than she ever did when she was pregnant.
