Chapter 83: Chapter 84: Come to My Room Tonight (4)

By the time he realized his mistake, he had already fastened the last button and had to undo them all and start over.

After re-adjusting his shirt, he frowned at his reflection in the mirror and, with a furrow of his brows, finally turned and walked towards the door.

A few steps later, he stopped, turned around, and took out the prepared tickets for the "Pompidou Art Center" from the drawer.

He had once asked Gan Tang, and the little one was fond of the works of a modern abstract artist; as it happened, the art center was currently hosting an exhibition of his work.

The photoshoot finished ahead of schedule and, finding himself with some free time, Huangfu Jue had Will specially prepare the tickets because he wanted to take the little one and Gan Yuan to the exhibition.

Lowering his head to apologize to someone else was a first in his life, and deliberately bringing the tickets was just an excuse for himself.

For someone as proud as he, making such a decision was rare indeed.

As he reached the corner of the third floor stairs, he heard footsteps from the second-floor corridor and, faintly, Gan Yuan’s voice; he subconsciously halted.

Downstairs.

The mother and child were walking up the stairs together; worried about the little one’s mood, she tried her best to appear carefree, even playfully joking with him.

"Mommy, are you mad at Uncle Huangfu?"

"No, why would I be mad at him?"

"Then why did you hit him?"

"That’s because... I was angry."

"Did he provoke you?"

"He..." Unable to deal with the little one’s questioning, she replied offhandedly, "Alright, child, don’t worry about adult matters, you’re too young to understand."

"Who says?" Gan Tang pouted, full of indignant righteousness, "I understand! He just doesn’t love Mommy. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he apologize to her?"

Such a small child, how could he understand what love is?

Gan Yuan’s lips curled into a smile that was a mix of helplessness and self-mockery, "Isn’t that just perfect? He doesn’t love me, and I... don’t love him either."

The little one pursed his lips, "Does Mommy really not like Uncle Huangfu?"

Gan Yuan took a deep breath, as though making an oath, and declared,

"Don’t like... not at all!"

"Then why did you kiss him?"

Gan Yuan glanced to the side, looking up the stairs.

That sound of footsteps just now, was that him?

"That was just..." She gritted her teeth, "acting for the occasion!"

"What does that mean?" the little one asked, confused.

"These are all questions not suitable for children; don’t ask them!"

"Ah!" The little one sighed softly and shook his head like an old scholar, "You women... are so complicated!"

Holding the little one’s hand, Gan Yuan looked up the stairs, withdrew her gaze, and hurried down.

On the stairs, Huangfu Jue’s fingers tightened, and the tickets in his hand were immediately crumpled into a wrinkled ball.

Turning around, he strode upstairs, reached the corner, and angrily threw the tickets into the trash can.

...

...

In the following days, Gan Yuan and Gan Tang busied themselves with photo shoots; sometimes they finished early and Gan Yuan would take the little one around to play.

Huangfu Jue seemed to be busy too, always leaving early and coming back late; for several days in a row, she hadn’t seen him at all.

After several days of hard work, the photo shoot was finally completed in the afternoon of the fourth day.

Finishing the work ahead of schedule meant more time to prepare for the other post-production tasks; and since the quality of the shots turned out to be very high, the project leader Xu Anran was in an excellent mood. Naturally, she personally hosted a dinner at a Chinese restaurant for everyone, including the models Gan Tang and Gan
