Chapter 829: Chapter 829: Boy
Knowing that she must be holding her phone now, I simply exited WeChat, opened the contact list, and dialed her number.
The phone rang just once before being answered, and Lan Shan’s voice ca through, "Xinluo, you’re up?"
"Mm... I just saw your ssage saying you’ll be back after a while, why?" A few days ago, Lan Shan called her and said her foot was healed and she would be back in a few days. They even planned to go shopping together, but now plans have changed.
"Do you know that Ling Haoyu is the president of the Ling Group?"
"I know, Beichen Rui told ."... Had it not been for Beichen Rui, she wouldn’t have guessed the president of the Ling Group would be him.
"Well... it seems Mr. Ling’s wife is about to give birth, the due date is around the end of this month. He told
to stay here and return after the celebration for the baby’s first month."
Thinking about how Ling Haoyu had previously suggested bringing her along, she added, "He also said you should co over."
"I won’t go. Since you’ll be staying longer and your foot is healed, enjoy wherever you plan to go."
"Mm... When I’m about to return, I’ll let you know in advance."
"Alright."
The two chatted for quite a while until Beichen Rui, impatiently waiting in the restaurant, ca upstairs to see what she was doing, and only then did she hang up.

The news of Ling Haoyu’s wife giving birth ca five days later, right at the end of the month. Gong Shaoyu was dealing with so matters when the phone on the coffee table rang, and he reached out to answer it.

Lan Shan sat nearby, and from his sporadic words, it was easy to infer that Ling Haoyu had beco a father, likely at the hospital with his wife and tending to the baby at the mont.
Once he hung up, Lan Shan put down her phone, looked at Gong Shaoyu with curiosity, and asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
"A boy. The celebration is at the end of next month, together then."
"Alright." She smiled with eyes curved like crescents, grabbed a pillow to hold, and got up to sit beside him, continuing, "I wonder if abroad they have a tradition of gifting newborns. Why don’t we get him sothing?"
Feeling a bit joyful, she spoke quickly, and accidentally said "we," which Gong Shaoyu heard. He glanced at her and seeing her smile, he didn’t say much.
"Brother Gong, do you know what one can give to newborns?"
Gong Shaoyu: "I don’t know, I’ve never given anything."
Upon hearing him, her head drooped instantly. Sitting cross-legged on the sofa with one hand supporting her chin, her fingers occasionally moved, pondering what would be a good gift.
Gong Shaoyu sat nearby, watching her in deep thought. The work he intended to continue was paused, as he changed positions while holding the computer, his gaze occasionally landing on her.
It’s unclear how long this went on, but suddenly Lan Shan jumped up from the sofa with a start. Her sudden movent startled him, causing him to look up in confusion, "What’s wrong?"
Realizing she was a bit too excited, she awkwardly scratched her head, her face full of embarrassnt...
