Perhaps it was He Gu's overly focused gaze that caught the little boy's attention.
The boy turned his head and tilted it slightly, staring back at him for a moment.
Their eyes locked, and He Gu felt as if he might be blind.
A strange illusion suddenly crept into his mind.
He couldn't quite explain why, but the more he looked at this boy, the more he felt he resembled Jiang Yi.
At the thought of Jiang Yi, He Gu even shivered slightly.
He couldn't understand the frightening notion he just had.
Quickly, He Gu shifted his gaze away, focusing again on a pretty female internet celebrity in his Douyin feed.
He didn't know how much time had passed when his cake was finally ready, packaged, and brought to him.
The staff placed the beautifully wrapped cake box in front of him and said, "Sir, your cake is ready."
He Gu responded, stood up from his seat, and asked, "Where do I pay?"
