Chapter 877 - Celebrating her Birthday
After eating breakfast, Xia An"s legs wouldn"t be able to run around, so it would be best for her to pa.s.s the time by reading. She really liked the round sofa in Gong Yuze"s study, which looked like it had dug a hole in the floor, and the sofa inside was soft and big, so even if she was lying down and reading, it wouldn"t be a problem.
Just like that, Xia Shan laid on the sofa and read a book of western love stories. He felt sad for the male and female protagonists who couldn"t fall in love. The most painful thing in this world was to love.
Suddenly, with a feeling of empathy and a touch of sadness in her heart, she heard the door open.
Xia An was startled to see Gong Yuze walking in with fruit and pastries in his hands. He was actually told by the eldest young master to do her work, wasn"t it a maid"s job to serve tea like this?
"Get up and eat. Drink a gla.s.s of water." Gong Yuze sat on the sofa opposite her and spoke to her.
She sat up straight and looked at him. She pursed her lips and smiled. "Thank you."
Gong Yuze pa.s.sed a cup of fresh fruit juice to her. Xia An took it and took a sip.
Gong Yuze stood up. He was tall and had long legs, so he did not even need to climb ladders to take down a book that he wanted to read.
He was planning on reading with her.
He extended his hand to pick up the small fork and picked up a sweet sweet potato in his mouth. Gong Yuze did not like to eat sweet food, so the few dishes on the table all belonged to her.
Usually, Gong Yuze would not ask the chef to make these snacks, but because there was a woman who liked to eat sweets at home, he made her make them.
"Is it delicious?" Gong Yuze raised his head and asked.
"Hm!" "It"s very delicious. Do you want to pay for it?" As Xia An ate, he choked on his food.
Seeing her eat so sweetly, Gong Yuze couldn"t help but become interested in her. He picked up a fork and ate one, it was very delicious and sweet, but he didn"t like it too much.
"I don"t like it. These are all yours." Gong Yuze pushed all the dishes in front of her.
Xia An"s eyes immediately lit up. "Hm!" "Then I won"t be polite."
But now, when Gong Yuze sat opposite of her, she realized that she didn"t have the mood to read anymore, as if she couldn"t enter into the book no matter what. Then, taking advantage of the time while she was eating dessert, her large eyes secretly glanced at the man opposite her.
In her eyes, no matter what Gong Yuze did, it was a beautiful picture scroll, captivating.
At this moment, his slender legs were elegantly crossed, the book in his hands was spread out on his knees, his fingers were clearly defined and fair as they lightly touched the pages of the book, his long eyelashes were lowered, and his long and narrow eyes seemed to have a eyelash. The sunlight outside the window was s.h.i.+ning in, causing his eyes to narrow and his eyelashes to cast shadows.
The nose was proud and straight, and perfect. Even the lips were just right thick and thin, with a sharp and s.e.xy shape. Not to mention, when he smiled, it was a fatal blow to a woman.
His chin had a graceful curve to it, belonging to the Adam"s apple symbolized by men. Xia Ran had unknowingly looked him over carefully.
Only when she withdrew her infatuated gaze did she realize that she had been looking at him for such a long time. She was slightly embarra.s.sed.
Gong Yuze seemed to not know that he was being watched, but he was reading seriously.
Xia An had no choice but to force himself to look in. When she was captivated by the story and focused on it, she didn"t know that the man in front of her had lifted his long eyelashes and had set his gaze on her face.
The last time Gong Yuze saw her mother, although the light was not bright, it was hard for him to believe that a person like her mother could give birth to a daughter like her.
It must be a genetic mutation!
In such a quiet study room, both of them were reading books. Time had turned quiet and beautiful.
The day after that pa.s.sed just like that. On the second day, Xia An wanted to go to work, but Gong Yuze stopped her.
Just like that, Xia An took another day off, saying that her leg was injured. The studio had given her a period of hard work, so they let her off again.
Gong Yuze told He Yong about giving Xia An"s birthday. He did not mention about this matter in front of Xia An, he had only asked for people to prepare.
As for the present he gave to Xia Ran, he was still considering what kind of gift he should give to her.
After giving her the necklace and bracelet last time, he could usually buy her clothes and shoes, so he wanted to give her a gift with a different meaning.
flipped through the magazine to see if there was anything meaningful for her. If possible, he really wanted to give her a car so that she could travel more easily in the future.
But, he thought, she had to have a driver"s license.
He thought about how he could give her a few gifts, and one of them was her phone. He thought that her new phone must be an ordinary one, so he planned to give her the latest rose and gold fruit machine that girls liked the most, two, give her the flowers, three, give her another set of jewelry, four, give her a bag, five, give her a child doll.
Although the presents weren"t expensive, they were at least what Xia Ran needed.
With this thought in mind, Gong Yuze didn"t ask for Xia An"s opinion anymore. He hoped that this would be a pleasant surprise.
In a blink of an eye, it was already Xia Ran"s birthday. Xia Ran didn"t have much of a birthday, so she didn"t take note of it. She had even forgotten that it was her birthday.
In the afternoon, Gong Yuze said that he wanted to go out for lunch, so Xia An accompanied him to the restaurant near the company. In the afternoon, Gong Yuze went to take care of work, but Xia An said that he wanted to buy books from the nearest library, so Gong Yuze left her at the door of the library.
For a young girl like her, there was nothing more attractive than a library. She could read some comics and novels that she liked to read at will, but the moment she sat down in the library, she became reluctant to leave.
In the blink of an eye, it was already five-thirty. Xia An was still here, and as she was engrossed in her reading, Gong Yuze was silently standing behind her.
He s.n.a.t.c.hed away the hearts and breaths of the Young girls s across from Xia An. Oh my G.o.d! What a handsome man.
Xia An saw that the girls across her were staring behind her. She quickly turned her head and realized that Gong Yuze was behind her.
"I"ll take you home!" Gong Yuze laughed lowly.
Her gentle gaze was dazzling.
