Gan Yuan looked up and saw only the wrought iron garden fence.
"Mr. Duke, breakfast is ready."
The servant came to inform.
She hurriedly stood up from his legs, and the little one also stood up, wanting to slide off his lap, but was caught by Huangfu Jue by the ribs and held in his arms.
"Daddy will carry you back!"
The little one had just recovered from a serious illness, and necessary exercise could improve skin recovery, which was good for the body, but one must not be too tired.
"I heard that there will be fireworks on National Day evening. Can we go to see them?" Xiaotang asked, clinging to his neck.
Gan Yuan was just about to speak when Huangfu Jue had already agreed smoothly.
Gan Yuan looked worriedly at Huangfu Jue. The fireworks show was at the square, and on the evening of National Day, it would definitely be crowded with countless people. Such a place was too unsafe.
"That’s amazing!" Gan Tang’s cheers drowned out her voice, "Teacher Sherry, we’re going to watch the fireworks with Daddy, do you want to come too?"
Teacher Sherry stood on the steps, smiling, "I promised to help you organize Moses’s materials, so I’m afraid I can’t join you."
Obviously, arranging materials was just an excuse. How could Teacher Sherry intrude when a family of three was going out together?
"Oh!" the little one frowned, "No problem, I’ll record a video for you when the time comes."
Sherry smiled, "Okay, thank you."
Seeing the little one’s excited smile, Gan Yuan had words on the tip of her tongue but held back.
After breakfast with the others, Sherry saw the signs and took the initiative to stand up.
"Shall we read the story of the Exodus from Egypt today?"
Knowing that the little one was very interested in the Bible recently, Sherry also adopted the method of teaching through interest. She temporarily changed the teaching material to the Bible, using it to help the little one learn to read and write, and the little one’s interest in learning was growing stronger.
As the two left the dining room, Gan Yuan put down the cutlery she was holding.
"Ajue, I still think this is too risky. Don’t forget, someone tried to take your life just a few days ago."
"Actually, these kinds of incidents have been happening almost non-stop since I was about Gan Tang’s age," Huangfu Jue said calmly, "so, I can’t stop eating for fear of choking, and... we will disguise ourselves as ordinary people, and no one will receive the news."
Gan Yuan still felt uneasy, "Actually, we could find a better viewing spot. The building on the east side of the square is a good location."
Huangfu Jue stretched out his hand and covered her slightly cool left hand, gently interlocking their fingers and holding her palm in his.
"I don’t want to disappoint Xiaotang."
He could see the child’s longing.
Six years of absence had left him with a lot of guilt toward the child. This time, it was Gan Tang who took the initiative to want to see the fireworks; how could he bear to refuse.
The man’s blue eyes were deep and solemn. Gan Yuan understood his intentions and no longer tried to persuade him. She could not deprive a father of the chance to love his child, nor a child of the chance to enjoy that love from a father.
Huangfu Jue reassuringly squeezed her hand, "I will make arrangements, don’t worry."
"Okay!" Gan Yuan smiled and nodded, "Eat up, it will get cold in a bit, and you still have a lot of work."
"And what about you!" Huangfu Jue watched her with a smile, "Have you considered the job I mentioned before?"
He was busy with work and could not accompany her every day. He also hoped she would have her own work so that her life would be more fulfilling.
