Why Are You So Busy?

Su Jing had barely sat down when she sprang up again, caught somewhere between surprise and delight. "How do you even know my birthday?"

Su Li, with a smug little grin, turned his gaze to Gu Zi. "Of course, Mom told me! She said that since Little Aunt isn't like how she used to be anymore, she's truly family now. And family should always remember each other's birthdays, right?"

Hearing this, Su Jing's heart swelled with emotion as her eyes drifted toward Gu Zi, brimming with gratitude.

She was on the verge of tears, but Gu Zi, ever the pragmatist, wasn't one for emotional theatrics. With a casual wave of her hand, she diverted the conversation, saying, "It came up the last time we were talking about Su Li's birthday. It got me thinking we should take stock of everyone's birthdays. Your brother actually reminded me of yours. Anyway, enough about that—what have you been up to these past few months?"
