"It seems like there was some special matter, so he came back early," the butler shrugged his shoulders, "Just now the mister called Paul and Jessica into the room, apparently they’re planning something very important."
"Is that so?" Gan Yuan immediately set down the soup bowl in her hand, "I’ll go over and have a look."
The butler took the soup bowl from her, and she approached Moses’s door, gently knocking.
Inside, Moses was discussing matters regarding Huangfu Jue and Gan Tang with Jessica and Paul. Hearing the knock on the door, Jessica immediately went to open it.
Hearing Gan Yuan’s voice, Moses immediately made a gesture, and Paul quickly stashed away the hotel floor plan from the table. Jessica opened the door to let her in, and Moses greeted her with a smile.
"You two go out for now!"
Jessica and Paul responded, one holding a laptop, the other holding maps and documents as they left.
"I..." Gan Yuan glanced at the retreating figures, "Am I interrupting you?"
"Of course not!" Moses stood up and approached her, "I saw your performance at the festival, it was very good, Gaia, you are even better than I had imagined."
Gan Yuan smiled, "That’s for sure, I have had a very excellent mentor, after all."
Knowing she was referring to him, Moses smiled, his gaze falling upon her face.
"You look a bit pale, have you been too tired lately?"
Gan Yuan shook her head.
In the early stages of pregnancy, her diet and sleep had been affected; naturally, her complexion wasn’t very good.
"Then..." Moses frowned, "is it... you’re missing the child?"
To say she didn’t miss the child at all would be too false, so Gan Yuan nodded:
"A little, after all... we have never been apart this long before. But... it’s okay, I believe, one day we will be together."
At this, he suddenly raised his hand to hold her wrist.
"Come here, I have something to show you!"
Leading Gan Yuan to the window, he tilted his chin slightly, "Do you see that white building there?"
Gan Yuan followed his gaze, they were on the top floor of the hotel with a far-ranging view, and from this angle, she could see the Royal Palace that she had seen before.
"The Presidential Palace?"
"To be precise, it’s the Royal Palace!" Moses withdrew his hand, his eyes intensively focused on the building, "In a while, you’ll be able to move there."
"Moses." Gan Yuan turned her face towards him, "Have you ever considered, what if... what if I lose?"
"You won’t lose!" Moses still looked in the direction of the Royal Palace, "That seat is reserved for you, no one else is qualified."
Gan Yuan smiled, "I hope, I won’t disappoint you."
"You certainly won’t," Moses said with a smile.
As she looked sideways at his brightly smiling face, a heaviness settled in Gan Yuan’s heart.
"What if... what if I really disappoint you?"
Moses turned his gaze back from the window, "In a few days, I’ll take you to a place, and then you’ll understand."
"What place?" Gan Yuan asked, puzzled.
"I’ll tell you when the time comes," Moses glanced at his watch, "I’m a bit tired now, let me rest for a while."
Nodding, Gan Yuan turned and walked out of his room; returning to the desk, Moses took out a pill from his pocket and popped it into his mouth, then immediately pulled out the hotel’s floor plan from the drawer and started to study it seriously.
This time, no matter the cost, he was determined to bring that child back to her side.
Good morning, Little Princesses
