Shu Pan had finally recovered from her illness, and during these days, Gu Shaoting had been visiting. She considered his role as Joy's father and didn't object to his visits.
However, he was becoming a bit too persistent. Every time he came, he would linger and insist on staying for dinner. He even made specific requests for dishes. Shu Pan ignored him and he shut up for good, leaving Shu Pan perplexed, wondering if he was the same Gu Shaoting as before.
Shu Pan was busy in the kitchen when Gu Shaoting arrived again. During dinner, she said, "I'm all better now. You don't have to come over anymore."
Gu Shaoting pretended not to hear and continued to eat.
"Joy, be a good girl and eat these meatballs. Eating more will help you grow taller," Shu Pan coaxed Joy.
"Mom, I don't want to eat so much meat. I'll get fat," Joy replied.
Gu Shaoting was left speechless, she was just a child, after all.
