Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Zi moved at a brisk pace. As she rounded the corner to the second floor, she heard the subdued laughter echoing from below. “Brother Jin Long, you’re so blunt. Sister-in-law must be feeling shy. But her cooking is truly amazing. I’ve never tasted such delicious rice in my life. If only we could help them move house every day…”

Upon hearing this, Gu Zi was taken aback. Who in their right mind would want to move house every day? The man’s fervent wish for a taste of the rice was quite surprising to her.

Fortunately, Jin Long didn’t entertain the thought. He retorted, “Shut up and eat. What nonsense are you spouting? Who would want to move every day? Sister-in-law is just being considerate. She left early so that Brother Shen and the children could eat while the food is still hot. Hurry up and eat.”

Relieved, Gu Zi ascended the stairs. She noticed Su Shen pacing back and forth in the common area of the second floor, cradling something in his arms. The man’s long legs took wide strides, and his broad shoulders obscured most of her view.

Upon hearing the noise, the man turned around. Only then did Gu Zi realize that the man was holding a just-awakened little Su Le. Without a closer look, she wouldn’t have known that the man was trying to soothe the child.

Approaching the man, Gu Zi took Su Le into her own arms. Looking into the man’s stern eyes, her voice softened involuntarily. “Go downstairs and eat something. I’ll take care of the child.”

Listening to his wife’s command, Su Shen obediently complied. He took her hand and they left the common area of the second floor. Descending the stairs, the couple was closely followed by their two sons who had rushed down from the third floor upon hearing the commotion. Their mother had prepared food, and they were eager to partake.

Upon their return to the living room, they found that the others had finished eating and were off to work. Jin Long was standing at the door, directing the operations.

Gu Zi distributed the food to her husband and children. With that, all the food they had brought was divided. She suggested to Su Shen, “I’m not used to eating right after a car ride, so I didn’t prepare a portion for myself. You guys eat. I’ll go out and take a look.”

Gu Zi headed straight for Jin Long. She remembered how the older man always wore the same few old clothes, rarely donning the new ones she had bought for him.

Su Shen shifted his gaze back to his meal and casually replied, “Your mom is thanking Uncle Jin Long for helping us move and running errands for us.” He couldn’t think of any other reason.

Thanks to the ample manpower and the furniture being arranged according to the design blueprint, the move was completed quickly. The furniture was arranged aesthetically, making the villa appear even more spacious and refined.

Seeing that all their luggage had been moved in, Gu Zi began to tidy up the master bedroom. After a while, she stretched lazily by the window and instinctively looked downstairs.

Su Shen stood in the front yard, tall and imposing, his features stern. His slender fingers unzipped his leather wallet and pulled out several large bills, handing them to the leader of the moving crew. His mature and composed demeanor was captivating. Gu Zi thought, who would prefer a greenhorn when they could have such a handsome and wealthy older man?

Gu Zi watched him for a long time, only snapping out of her reverie when Su Bing and the others came to find her. Hearing Su Bing say, “Mom, I’ve tidied up my and my brother’s rooms. He’s in the north room on the second floor, and I’m in the south room. But the third floor is still empty. Are we going to leave it like that?”
