The importance of this project is self-evident, but no matter how significant anything is, it pales in comparison to the happiness of the little woman he loves. Grandmother spent her entire life chasing love—how could he be any different?
"Jingchen, you're amazing!" Hearing Gu Jingchen's response, Shang Xixia's clear, sparkling eyes lit up brilliantly. Her smile curved like a crescent moon, and her voice carried a joyful exuberance that felt infectious!
"Silly girl, don't just talk about Nan City Alley—even the entire Gu Group, even all of me—it's all yours. Do you know that?"
Gu Jingchen strode toward the little woman he cherished, standing by her side. He extended his fair fingers and gently traced them across the tip of the little girl's nose. The motion was full of tender indulgence, and his voice, magnetic and laden with warmth, swirled with such intimacy it seemed capable of melting anyone entirely.
