The next morning, while Gu Nanyan was busy at the law firm, Zhou Bei, who had been missing for several days, finally showed up to invite her for dinner.
Lu Beicheng had a social engagement in the evening, so after finishing work, Gu Nanyan took little Xiao Bei along for dinner.
Seated opposite each other at the dining table, Gu Nanyan poured tea while asking, "Why haven't I heard from you these past few days?"
Zhou Bei stole a glance at her. "It's the end of the year, the company is busy."
Gu Nanyan was not suspicious, and after pouring the tea, she called over Xiao Bei.
Xiao Bei might be young, but he was exceptionally sensible. Whenever Gu Nanyan took him out to eat, he quietly ate his own meal, read his books afterward, and barely disturbed Gu Nanyan unless it was necessary.
If someone else looked at him, he would grin foolishly at them.
