Capítulo 1008: Chapter 1008: What Has Changed in This World?
The curtains were suddenly drawn open, and the bright morning sunlight poured in.
Lu Wanwan felt sore and weak all over, pulling the sheet up.
She, exhausted, kept her eyes closed, just wanting to turn around.
“Don’t sleep too long.” The man changing clothes by the bed, speaking while fastening his belt, said, “You know about the departure tonight. I have some work to handle at the company and will pick you up in the afternoon.”
She furrowed her brows tightly, lazily opening a sliver of her eyes.
He had already regained his well-dressed appearance, showing no signs of the man who had made her not want to get out of bed just moments ago.
His short hair gleamed gently in the sunlight, highlighting his strikingly handsome face, dazzling.
“I have a shopping date with Xu Yuan today; she hasn’t picked out her outfit for tomorrow yet.” She replied hoarsely, closing her eyes again.
The implication being that she wouldn’t sleep too long, nor be late.
Gu Annan finished dressing and walked a few steps closer.
Lu Wanwan distinctly felt the mattress sink.
She opened one eye, seeing the approaching man, “What is it now?”
“Didn’t our daughter say what should be done before leaving?” He spoke lightly, as if discussing something serious and earnest.
“Didn’t you kiss enough just now?”
Soon, a kiss landed on her lips.
“Kissing so quickly, what will you do in the future?”
Perhaps he really had work to do; he didn’t linger and pester.
Lu Wanwan looked at the ring on her hand, taking it off her ring finger, wanting to take a closer look.
Gu Annan hadn’t left yet, seeing her action, he paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, “Even if you don’t like it, don’t take it off until I buy a new one.”
She gave him a puzzled glance, when had she ever said she didn’t like it, couldn’t she just look at it?
“Put it on. If I see you’ve taken it off next time, face the consequences yourself.” He slightly stiffened his face, finished speaking, and walked out.
He was a bit unsure whether Lu Wanwan would like it.
Just like his father said many years ago when he saw it, after all, it’s not a diamond ring.
He had it custom-made according to her previous preferences, originally with full confidence.
But now he wasn’t sure, she wouldn’t cater to him blindly anymore, she didn’t need him like she used to.
So she would lose her temper at him any time, act willfully if she wanted, without having to guess his thoughts as before.
Everything has its pros and cons, and the downside of this equality for him is that if she doesn’t like him anymore, or thinks they’re not good together, she won’t endure or compromise.
It was because of this realization that he delayed presenting the ring, always wanting to find a more suitable opportunity.
Whether her taste in jewelry matched her requirements for a wedding ring, he couldn’t be sure.
It seems, after all, he should prepare a few more diamond rings.
Shao Zhixing told him that day, before he and Xu Yuan registered, how much effort he secretly put into that diamond ring. That woman agreed so readily to register with him, that eye-blinding diamond ring was absolutely crucial, she accepted it without hesitation at first glance…
“Daddy, what’s wrong?” Little Momo came out of the room, seeing the unusually different expression on her usually confident father’s face.
What’s changed in the world?
“Nothing.” Gu Annan didn’t look back, went straight downstairs, and left.
It seems today’s tasks have increased by one more.

Lu Wanwan looked at that ring, the inner band reflecting the letters GW.
Gu and Wan?
