Chapter 109: Chapter 110 Half-numb Arms (3)

Gan Tang sat astride his back, and the usually reserved little guy now had a face full of smiles as he told him about the new school.

Gan Yuan reached for the backpack, her fingertips touching the bag’s straps, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately, her fingers slowly bent and withdrew.

Then, she turned and walked into the bathroom.

This was the first time he got to ride on his father’s back like a horse, so let the little guy enjoy it a bit longer!

After loitering in the bathroom for a good ten minutes, Gan Yuan came back out, slung the backpack over her shoulder, and casually picked up the little guy’s schoolbag before striding over to Huangfu Jue’s side. She bent down to lift the little guy off his back.

"Mr. Huangfu, take your time with your practice. We’ll be going now," she said.

"Bye, Uncle Huangfu."

As Gan Yuan dragged the little guy out the door, he did not forget to wave back at him.

"Goodbye."

Huangfu Jue did not stop them, halted his activities, and stood up. He turned and walked into the bathroom.

She had his belongings in her hands, so he wasn’t worried about her leaving again. Pushing too hard would only make her resist more. He might not have experience with love, but he understood the importance of taking things slow.

He kept his eyes on the VIP room door until it was firmly shut again, then the smile on his face faded.

"So, no progress?"

Will shook his head gently. "On the way here, I talked to Xiaotang. When they moved to B City, he was only three years old and doesn’t remember much about what happened before. According to him, Miss Gan doesn’t seem to have many close friends," he said.

Huangfu Jue had been puzzled for six years, unable to understand what the reason could have been.

If she truly didn’t care about him, she wouldn’t just casually have a child with him.

If she cared, why then did she leave without a word?

...

In the past few days, he had been thinking of ways to find out what had happened to her, but the results were unsatisfactory. Whether it was colleagues from the hotel or Xiaotang, the understanding they had of Gan Yuan was pitifully little.

"The press conference will go ahead as planned, and the official rehearsal starts tomorrow," he said after instructing Will.

He walked into the shower to bathe.

Business is business, personal is personal.

While building a relationship with her and her son was one aspect, he couldn’t let work fall behind. The company had invested countless resources in the new children’s clothing brand, and naturally, he couldn’t allow any mistakes with the brand’s launch.

Upon closing the door, he took the small external hard drive from his pocket, his fingers gently caressing the Red Spider Lily engravings on it. The texture of the drive was slick, almost akin to her skin.

The tattoo on her lower back crossed his mind, and a restless heat began to rise from his abdomen.

He turned on the showerhead and let the cold water stream over his head, the man taking a deep breath.

"Damn woman!"

...

...

Gan Yuan had been worried that Huangfu Jue would pester her relentlessly.

But, her worries never materialized.

That night, Huangfu Jue didn’t show up again, and the next day, he wasn’t at the club either.

It wasn’t until dusk, when she went to the kindergarten to pick up Gan Tang from school, that she saw Will had arrived early, holding the little guy’s hand at the school gate, waiting for her.

Will, with a polite and sincere tone, greeted her with a smile.

"The press conference is approaching, and Xiaotang hasn’t had a proper rehearsal yet. Today, I’d like to take him to try walking on the runway. Would you mind?" he asked.

It’s hard to slap a smiling face, and besides, she had already agreed to it. Gan Yuan readily agreed.

"Sure, I’ll come with you."

She also knew a thing or two about the children’s clothing company. It was a new brand recently launched by a company that Huangfu Jue had acquired, and he had put a lot of effort into this brand.
