My Hidden Wife is Sweet

Chapter 1633: Her Birthday

??

In the meanwhile, at the Gu Family’s mansion in A Land.

At some point, this luxurious and spacious mansion was no longer as bustling as it was before.

Gu Siting returned to the Gu Family’s mansion early in the afternoon and for the first time, he was in the kitchen.

The three head chefs and the servants were all standing outside the dining room, watching him work for the entire afternoon.

Then he made some dishes and a chiffon cake, and turned down everyone’s help.

Only the elderly staff members, who had worked at the Gu Family’s mansion for years, remembered that those dishes were all Miss. Weiwei’s favorites.

Gu Siting carried one dish after another to the long table and removed the apron when all the dishes were on the table.

Kuroda Shio hurried back with a pile of documents. “President Gu, there are some urgent documents for you to sign.”

“Let’s not talk about work right now,” Gu Siting said as he put candles into the cake.

“But…”

Kuroda Shio was anxious, but he did not force him. Instead, he took the documents and waited in the living room.

President Gu had been like this every year after Weiwei left.

He would not listen to anything he said about work.

He checked the time and decided to wait until after midnight.

Gu Siting lit the candles, poured two glasses of red wine and watched the candles burning out.

He could not remember how many years it had been since he celebrated her birthday with her.

When he finally thought of her, she had already left him.

He had prepared all of her favorite dishes and cakes, but she never took a bite.

He knew that she was not coming, and everything he had done would be in vain. But every year, he still could not help but do those things.

The candles on the birthday cake were burnt out and the dishes on the table were no longer hot. He drank the red wine in the cup and mumbled, “You won’t be home this year, but you will be home next year.”

She was definitely going to celebrate her birthday with him here next year.

He finished the red wine in the glass, got up and walked to the white piano that had been idle for a long time, and sat down in front of it alone.

He reached out for the black and white keys as if he were touching the warmth left by the previous piano player.

After a long time, his slender fingers moved and played the piano that had not been played for a long time.

Kuroda Shio glanced at the piano when he heard the sound. He remembered that it was a song by Franz Liszt called Dream of Love.

Weiwei often played this song when she was at the Gu Family’s mansion.

Also, it was a song President Gu had been very fond of all these years.

But the person who played the song was long gone.

The music did not stop until the clock in the living room rang.

Kuroda Shio knew that Weiwei’s birthday had passed, so he went to him with the files.

“President Gu, these are all the documents that need your signature.”

Gu Siting went upstairs and did not take the files until he came to the study.

“How is the experiment going?”

“The second experiment was successful, but the data is not very stable, so several more tests are needed,” Kuroda Shio said.

Gu Siting nodded with a profound look. “Ask them to hurry up, and make sure that it is a success.”

“I will ask them tomorrow,” Kuroda Shio replied.
