At the same time, at the Gu family's residence in A Land.
The luxurious and spacious Gu family's residence was no longer as lively as it used to be.
Today, Gu Siting returned to the Gu family's residence early in the afternoon and for the first time, he stayed in the kitchen.
Meanwhile, the three head chefs and a group of servants were all standing neatly outside the dining room, watching him work in the dining room alone for the entire afternoon.
Then, she made a few dishes and a Qi Feng cake. She refused to let anyone help her.
Only the elderly who had worked in the Gu family for many years remembered that those dishes were what Miss Weiwei liked to eat when she was around.
Gu Siting brought the dishes to the long dining table alone. He only took off his apron when all the dishes were on the table.
Kuroda Shio hurried in with a large pile of documents. "President Gu, there are some urgent documents that need your signature."
"Let's not talk about work now," Gu Siting said as he put the candles on the cake.
"But …"
Although Kuroda Shio was anxious, he did not insist. He took the documents to the living room and waited.
Ever since Miss Weiwei left, President Gu had been doing this every year on this day.
At this time, he wouldn't listen to anything that was discussed with him about work.
He looked at the time and decided to wait until after midnight.
Gu Siting lit the candles, poured two glasses of red wine and sat there quietly as he watched the candles burn out.
He could not remember how many years it had been since he had celebrated her birthday with her.
When he finally remembered, she had already left him.
He had prepared all of her favorite dishes and cakes, but she didn't even try a single bite.
He knew that she would not come and that it was useless, but on this day every year, he still could not help but do these things.
The candles on the birthday cake burned out and the dishes on the table gradually lost their heat. He drank the red wine in his glass and mumbled to himself.
"You did not come back this year, but you will come back next year."
On this day next year, she would definitely sit here and celebrate with him.
He finished the red wine in his glass, got up and walked to the white piano that had been unused for a long time. He sat in front of it alone.
She reached out and stroked the black and white keys, as if she was feeling the warmth left behind by the piano owner.
After a long while, his slender fingers moved lightly as he began to play the piano that had not been played for a long time.
Kuroda Shio heard the music and glanced at it. He remembered that it was Liszt's "Dream of Love".
In the past, when Miss Weiwei was at the Gu residence, she would often hear this song.
Similarly, this was also a song that Mr. Gu had been fond of all these years.
It was a pity that the person who had played the zither had long since left his side.
The sound of the zither continued until the European-style wall clock in the living room rang 12 o 'clock. Only then did the sound of the zither stop.
Kuroda Shio knew that Miss Weiwei's birthday had passed, so he went over with the documents.
"President Gu, these are all documents that require your signature."
Gu Siting went upstairs and sat down in the study to flip through the documents.
"How's Dr. Li's experiment going?"
"The second experiment was successful, but the data is not very stable, so a few more experiments are needed." Kuroda Shio said.
Gu Siting nodded deeply. "Hurry them up and make sure that it is a complete success."
