There was a few seconds of silence.
In the end, his heart softened.
Fu Tingyu said, "Let's go."
"Then wait for me. I'll go get my bag. I'll be right down."
Qin Shu ran happily all the way up to the second floor.
Fu Tingyu stood downstairs in his suit, watching as the girl ran up the stairs. Her energetic appearance reminded him of the past.
Qin Shu put her wallet and laptop into her backpack, slung it over her shoulders, and ran downstairs again.
Fu Tingyu sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. He looked up and saw the girl running down the stairs in a hurry.
It was almost June, and the weather was a little hot.
Qin Shu ran all the way to the man. Her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her face was slightly red.
She smiled and said, "Let's go."
Fu Tingyu's slender figure stood up from the sofa and walked out of the living room. He did not walk fast. It was as if he was trying to cater to the girl's stride.
Qin Shu followed him all the way out.
Shi Yan was already waiting by the car. After waiting for Sir and Madam to get into the car, he closed the car door and sat in the driver's seat.
Then, he started the engine and drove away.
On the way-
Fu Tingyu's slender fingers picked a snack box filled with snacks on the cabinet and handed it to the girl.
"Eat these."
The snacks were packed by Ning Meng when Qin Shu went upstairs because Qin Shu only had two bites of breakfast.
Qin Shu looked at the snack box in the man's hand and felt warm in her heart.
She took the box and opened it. There were six crystal dumplings, three soup dumplings, eggs, beef, and diced fruits inside.
The breakfast was rich and nutritious.
The most important thing was that they were all her favorite food.
Only those who truly cared about her would understand her preferences so well.
Qin Shu had only eaten two mouthfuls of food in the morning, so when she saw the exquisite and delicious breakfast, she lowered her head and started eating.
Fu Tingyu propped up his forehead with a hand and watched the girl eat the crystal dumplings in one bite.
He remembered that she had also eaten crystal dumplings in one bite without any hesitation at all when she was younger.
Her mouth was so tiny, but she could eat all of the crystal dumplings in one bite.
Qin Shu picked up the second crystal dumpling and brought it to her mouth. When she felt the man's gaze on her, she opened her mouth and was about to bite into it but stopped. She had originally wanted to eat it in one bite.
She thought for a moment and only ate half of it. There was still half left on her chopsticks. She only put the remaining half of the dumpling into her mouth when she finished eating the first bite.
It took twice as long as usual to eat six crystal dumplings.
Fu Tingyu watched the girl finish six crystal dumplings. He picked up the milk on the cabinet, twisted open the lid, and handed it to her.
There was a bottle of milk in front of her and Qin Shu happened to be thirsty, so she reached out to take it and drank a few mouthfuls of it.
Then, Qin Shu finished the rest of the breakfast.
She was too thin now and needed to gain weight.
Fu Tingyu looked at the empty box and felt a little relieved. Not only did his babe not stop eating, but she also ate more than before.
No matter what the reason was, she had changed so quickly.
But he liked it when she was lively and energetic.
There were two roads to Lin City in Jiangcheng. One was a shortcut, and the other took a little longer.
Qin Shu looked out of the window uneasily. At the intersection ahead, was the path to the viaduct. That was the shortcut.
The other was a street. If they took this road, it would be a bit of a detour.
In Qin Shu's past life, Fu Tingyu's sudden car accident had been planned by someone to stop the signing of the contract.
Qin Shu looked at Shi Yan and pointed in the direction of the street. "Let's take that road. I want to go shopping on the way."
"Madam, Sir is going to sign the contract today. If we're late, it would mean forfeiting the contract."
Shi Yan deliberately spoke in a serious tone so that Qin Shu would not cause trouble.
