Chapter 286 - 286: Visiting The Zoo

After hanging up the phone, Joy said smugly to Shu Pan, “Mommy, Uncle Gu will pick us up tomorrow.”

Joy seemed to be telling her that she wasn’t lying. Uncle Gu was very glad that she invited him to go with her to the zoo.

Shu Pan pinched Joy’s tiny nose and said with a smile, “Mommy got it. Let’s go buy some snacks for tomorrow.”

“Yay!” The little fellow spun around excitedly before she skipped and hopped forward.

The next day, Joy got up early because she was excited about going to the zoo. After breakfast, the two of them changed and went downstairs.

Gu Shaoting also woke up early. It was his first outing with them, so he was a little nervous.

When he was approaching Shu Pan’s building, he saw the mother and daughter waiting for him downstairs from afar.

The mother and daughter were dressed in matching outfits. White t-shirt with a teddy bear print, denim shorts, white sneakers, pink sun hat and a small backpack. The parent looked youthful while the child looked really adorable.

Gu Shaoting’s heart was filled with contentment. He couldn’t bear to look away as he thought about how wonderful it would be if they were his wife and child…

Well, they used to be, but he messed everything up. Shu Pan’s current lukewarm attitude towards him really put him at a loss.

While simmering in his depression, he pulled up in front of Shu Pan and her daughter.

Gu Shaoting got out of the car, his eyes gently staring at Shu Pan and Joy. He then squatted down, hugged Joy and gave her a kiss. “Good morning, my little princess.”

Joy laughed as Gu Shaoting strapped her into the car seat in the back.

He then opened the door to the front passenger seat and gestured for Shu Pan to get in. When everything was ready, Gu Shaoting said, “And so the adventure begins.”

They drove steadily toward the zoo.

Throughout the journey, Joy was like a little sparrow chattering non-stop. Gu Shaoting did not find it annoying and answered her every question.

Shu Pan rolled down the car window slightly and felt the refreshing breeze against her face. Looking at the scenery that kept moving backward, she felt deep reflections within herself.

The image of such family outings had appeared so many times in her mind when she was pregnant.

But she knew back then that it was just a fantasy that would never come true.

She didn’t expect it to come true today. However, her wounded heart was already a little numb; she couldn’t find the feeling she experienced back when she was imagining it.

Gu Shaoting looked at Shu Pan, who was sitting next to him, in deep thought and immersed in her own little world.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Shaoting asked twice before Shu Pan turned her head.

She asked with confusion, “What’s the matter?” Shu Pan didn’t hear what Gu Shaoting said.

“Oh, nothing. I just saw that you were in a daze. Did something happen?” Gu Shaoting asked with concern.

“I’m fine. You didn’t have to come if you’re busy. Joy is quite willful now. You don’t have to give in to her every request.” Shu Pan was worried that they were in the way of his work.

After all, he was no ordinary office worker. It wasn’t difficult to imagine how much work it was to run a large corporation.

“I’m not busy today.” In Gu Shaoting’s mind, nothing was more important than family outings like this. He had already missed the years from Joy’s birth until recently. He didn’t want to miss out on her development anymore..
