After returning home, Shu Pan settled Joy, and after they had eaten, she sat down at the computer to modify the day’s drawings.
She planned to convert one of the rooms on the second floor of the villa into a children’s room. This room was not far from the master bedroom on the second floor.
Since Gu Shaoting hadn’t specifically instructed which room to convert, she had to consider practicality and aesthetics.
As she worked on the drawings, she glanced at Joy, who was happily playing on the bed. A sense of guilt washed over her. “My child, you’re a child who wasn’t eagerly anticipated by your father, so you have to be strong.”
The next day happened to be Saturday, and Wen Chi called Shu Pan early in the morning. “Did you bring Joy to Binjiang?
“Yeah, how did you know?” Shu Pan was a bit surprised.
“I called Auntie, and she told me. Why didn’t you tell me?” Wen Chi reproached her.

“You don’t have to work today, right? It’s Saturday.” Wen Chi suddenly changed the topic.
“Yeah, what’s up?” Shu Pan had to ask.
“Nothing, can’t I just call you?” Wen Chi said, a bit irritably. “The weather is great today, how about we take Joy to the amusement park?”
Wen Chi’s suggestion caught Shu Pan off guard, but she thought it was indeed a good idea.
“Sure, but aren’t you supposed to be working today? The hospital is always busy.” Shu Pan asked, concerned about his schedule.
“I’m human too, and I need rest. I’ve always believed in work-life balance, unlike some people.” Wen Chi’s voice hinted at something, and he was referring to someone specific.
Shu Pan sighed silently.
“Okay, then get ready, and we’ll meet at the intersection with Joy in a while.” Wen Chi instructed.
“Alright, thank you.” Shu Pan had spent the night thinking about it, and she believed she needed to consider herself and give herself a chance.
When Wen Chi arrived at the intersection, he saw Shu Pan and Joy wearing matching parent-child outfits. Both of them were dressed in white shirts and overalls, looking very cute.
His heart warmed at the sight, and he couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
“How fortunate would one be to have a wife and daughter like this?”
He got lost in his thoughts for a moment before coming back to reality.
“Hello, beauties, please get in the car.” Wen Chi stepped out of the car and opened the door, making a gentlemanly invitation.
“Hello, Uncle Wen.” Joy’s voice was sweet, as if she had just eaten candy.
“Hello, little beauty. Please sit down, and we’re off.” Wen Chi focused on driving, being cautious with the traffic around them.
Soon, they arrived at Binjiang’s largest amusement park.
“Wow, there are so many fun things here! ” It was Joy’s first time, and she was jumping with excitement.
“Come on,” Wen Chi said as he lifted Joy onto his shoulders.

“Wen Chi, please put her down and let her walk. She’s quite heavy, and you must be tired,” Shu Pan suggested when she noticed.
“It’s alright, I can handle it,” Wen Chi continued walking.
Wen Chi bought many tickets, and he accompanied Joy on the mini-train, bumper cars, and other rides.
Shu Pan couldn’t help but feel her eyes moisten as she watched them.
To outsiders, they appeared to be a loving family.
She was aware of Wen Chi’s feelings, but she had chosen to ignore them,
fearing she would be a hindrance.
However, today’s scene truly touched her heart. She saw him patiently teaching and entertaining Joy. He must be a good father.
Perhaps she should follow her instincts and give Wen Chi and herself a chance.
That was what she thought, but reality often had its own plans, contrary to one’s wishes..
