"If you miss him, just give him a call."
"Dad, it's not that I haven't tried; it's just that no one picked up. He's probably busy with work."
Jian Ran extended her small hand to gently stroke her rounded belly and softly said, "Well, I'll try calling Mo Chen again now."
"You silly girl."
Jian Anguo watched Jian Ran's sweet smile, then affectionately watched as Jian Ran willingly sat on the sofa and dialed Gu Mochen's number.
Daughters grow up so quickly.
Now, Jian Ran's entire attention was on Gu Mochen.
Gu Mochen's phone remained unanswered, and Jian Ran's previously curved lips straightened out, unable to suppress the disappointment in her heart.
Jian Anguo secretly smiled at Jian Ran's expression, quietly thinking to himself that this disappointment would make the subsequent surprise even more joyful.
It turns out he's become Mo Chen's accomplice, helping the man keep things from Jian Ran.
...
The next day, the award ceremony.
