Chapter 450: Chapter 450: The Fruits Stealthily Given by Gu Shiting
Gu Shiting was very happy today.
His happiness was simple, with a touch of boyish innocence.
Grandma made a sumptuous dinner and let him stay over at her house. He was in a great mood, bustling around with Grandma.
After dinner, he helped Grandma wash the dishes.
"Look, the new son-in-law is so diligent," Grandma said to Sheng Sidong. "When you first came to our house, you also helped with the dishes."
Sheng Sidong: "..."
The old son-in-law hadn’t done housework in many years and blushed a bit, mumbling a few words before retreating to his room.
Grandma also changed the bedsheet and duvet cover for Gu Shiting and personally tidied up Sheng Tang’s desk, while saying Sheng Tang was messy.
While Gu Shiting was washing the dishes, Sheng Tang was eating a plate of strawberries beside him, smiling and asking, "You can wash dishes too?"
"I can do anything," Gu Shiting said.
In the future, when he and Sheng Tang get married, if they can afford it, they’ll hire a maid. If they can’t, he can take care of Sheng Tang himself.
Anyway, he could do everything.
He had good grades, a career of his own, and could support her. He could manage both inside and outside the home.
"Amazing!" Sheng Tang exclaimed. "You really are a good boy."
Gu Shiting: "..."
He was about to say something when Sheng Tang put a strawberry into his mouth.
The strawberry was both sour and sweet, just like Gu Shiting’s mood at that moment.
After taking a bath that night, he refused to sleep and pulled Sheng Tang to chat with him.
Sheng Tang sat on the small bed, and the two faced each other, talking about things that happened at school today. She kept laughing.
"You don’t find me harsh?" Gu Shiting asked her.
Sheng Tang: "Am I that unreasonable? If you told me to ’get lost,’ I’d definitely curse you out. But when you say it to others, I find it quite amusing."
Gu Shiting smiled slightly.
He leaned closer, seemingly wanting to pull her into his arms: "I would never say that to you."
"I know," Sheng Tang smiled.
She knew Gu Shiting was good to her, no matter when or where. It was a kind of silent trust that had taken root in her heart, so strong.
Just like she firmly believed everyone in the Sheng family loved her.
It was getting late, and Sheng Tang was about to go to her room to sleep when Gu Shiting suddenly pounced on her.
"Stay with me tonight, okay?" he asked softly.
Sheng Tang: "The bed’s too small. Be good, sleep well, and wake up early tomorrow."
She went back to her grandma’s side.
The next morning, when Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting got up, Grandma had already bought breakfast.
After a simple meal, Gu Shiting’s driver brought the car over and parked downstairs.
Yawning, Sheng Tang went to school with Gu Shiting.
That noon, Sheng Tang received a box of washed strawberries, which was placed directly on her desk.
"You bring fruit to school?" Jiang Baocu asked while grabbing a strawberry from the box, "I’ll bring some tomorrow too."
Sheng Tang figured it was from Gu Shiting since he saw her eating strawberries after dinner yesterday.
Sheng Tang also took one to eat and sent a message to Gu Shiting, asking if it was him.
"Yes, I personally delivered it. No one saw me," Gu Shiting said.
Sheng Tang: "..."
Makes it seem like he’s a thief.
While Sheng Tang and Jiang Baocu were eating strawberries, the class monitor brought a greeting card starting from the first row of the first group for signing.
"It’s for Sun Xiaojun," the class monitor said.
Sun Xiaojun only came on the first day of school and had been in the hospital since.
The students all felt the seriousness of it.
Yan Jinzhi, who was in the first row, held the greeting card and curiously asked the class monitor, "What exactly is Sun Xiaojun’s illness?"
"Leukemia," the class monitor said with a darkened expression.
Sheng Tang heard it and was stunned.
