"Who else could it be?" He Zhichu smiled wryly at Gu Nianzhi. "Ok, Father. I have to go now. I still have a case here, and I'll be sure to come see you once it concludes."
Senior Mr. He sighed. "Is it Nianzhi? Aren't you going to bring her home?"
He Zhichu kept quiet, and Senior Mr. He spoke so quietly that Gu Nianzhi didn't overhear it. She also wasn't listening because she was only thinking about how it was actually Professor He's birthday. No wonder he asked her to have cake with him just now; it was his birthday cake. He Zhichu ended the call, and the elevator had arrived at their floor. Gu Nianzhi stepped out of the elevator, and her huge eyes suddenly glittered as she smiled at him. "Professor He, happy birthday!"
He Zhichu was not very affected by her casual but sweet words. "No need to be so polite. Birthdays come along every year, so it's nothing special."
