The next morning, the doorbell of Liu Nian's house rang precisely at eight o'clock.

Gu Minhang waited outside her door with breakfast in hand.

Liu Nian got up and opened the door in a daze.

She was still wearing her pajamas, and her hair was a mess.

"Good morning, Gu!" she said, then yawned without any regard for her image.

Gu Minhang thought she looked a little dazed and chuckled softly.

Good morning, Nian Nian!

When Liu Nian came out after washing up and changing clothes, Gu Minhang had already set out breakfast, waiting for her to eat together.

"You made it yourself?"

He handed her the chopsticks: "Hmm, want to try some?"

Without any hesitation, Liu Nian took the chopsticks, picked up a fried egg, and took a bite.

"It smells so good!"

Gu Minhang pushed the milk in front of her: "Eat slowly, there's plenty more."

Every year, Liu Nian would eat until she was stuffed, and then she would take digestive pills in front of him.

Gu Minhang felt that her stomach was really too small. Even though she didn't eat much, he always saw her taking medicine.

As the two set off, a light drizzle began to fall outside.

Fortunately, it's easy to get a taxi in the morning.

The two had just gotten into the car and hadn't been driving for long when a light rain started to fall.

The sound of rain pattering outside the car, while the driver played soft music inside, created a surprisingly pleasant atmosphere.

Gu Minhang noticed she seemed a bit tired: "The journey is a bit long, do you want to rest for a while?"

Liu Nian nodded, rested her head on his shoulder, and closed her eyes. "Gu, remember to wake me up when we get there!"

"good."

He adjusted his posture slightly and draped the coat he had brought with him when he left the house over her shoulders.

Before she knew it, Liu Nian had really fallen asleep.

She didn't even know when she arrived at the destination.

Gu Minhang paid the fare before quietly getting off the bus. He took Liu Nian's small backpack and carried it himself before carrying her off the bus.

It seemed like it had just rained in the suburbs; there were still small puddles on the ground, and the humid air felt very comfortable.

After walking for more than ten minutes with my arms around Liu Nian, a villa finally came into view.

Taking advantage of his long legs, Gu Minhang arrived at the villa's gate in no time.

The servants inside had already seen him.

She hurriedly opened the door, and was about to speak when he stopped her.

He gestured to the newcomer to be quiet.

The maid glanced at the person in his arms and was instantly surprised; it was a fair-skinned little girl.

Gu Minhang carried the person back to his room and put her down, but Liu Nian still did not wake up.

She turned over and continued sleeping.

He covered her with the blanket before leaving the room.

The servants had already informed him of his return.

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw an elderly man, over fifty years old, sitting in a grand chair by the window.

He walked over. “Grandfather.”

The old man hummed a classic tune, closed his eyes to rest, and didn't even look at him.

Gu Minhang sighed and went over to massage the old man's shoulders and back. "Have you been eating the diet prescribed by the doctor lately?"

"Oh! I thought you'd forgotten about this old man." The old man said sarcastically.

Gu Minhang was already used to his personality and didn't argue. "Isn't it just the start of the holiday?"

The old man snorted, opened his eyes and looked at him: "I heard you brought back a little girl, what? Don't you want me to see her?"

"She's asleep. She'll definitely take a look at you when she wakes up."

Liu Nian didn't wake up until late afternoon. When she looked around, she felt lost.

Where am I?! Where is Gu Minhang?! What is she doing here?!

Liu Nian stood there stunned for a moment before deciding to go out and take a look.

"System, where's Gu Minhang?!"

System: "Host, the male lead is within 100 meters of you."

Hmm! So this is Gu Minhang's home!

System: "That's right, host, you should seize the opportunity. The male lead has brought you back to meet his grandfather."

Liu Nian's eyes lit up immediately.

She came out of the room and happened to run into Gu Minhang, who was coming upstairs.

When Gu Minhang saw her come out, a gentle smile appeared on his face. "I was just about to come up and wake you up."

I feel a little embarrassed by the passing years.

"Didn't you say you'd wake me up when we got there? Why didn't you wake me?!" She's been sleeping until now.

"I didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly." He then took her hand and led her downstairs. "You missed lunch. Are you hungry now? I asked the kitchen to make you some snacks."

Liu Nian didn't feel hungry, but to avoid trouble, she nodded anyway.

She said in a soft, sweet voice, "I'm hungry."

He chuckled, led her downstairs, and then headed towards the restaurant.

As time flows by, I take in my surroundings.

This is a detached villa! It's very large, and the interior decoration is very elegant.

"Let me take you to eat something first, and then I'll introduce you to your grandfather."

After Gu Minhang helped her sit down, he personally went to the kitchen and brought out two plates of pastries, followed by a plate of fruit.

Liu Nian didn't eat much; she only ate a little and then stopped.

"It doesn't taste good?"

"She's eating so little," Gu Minhang asked, frowning.

"It's delicious, but I'm full and can't eat much more." As she spoke, she rubbed her tummy through her clothes.

Her actions were somewhat cute, which made Gu Minhang laugh a little.

“Then let’s go see Grandpa. He’s fishing in the pond behind the house.”

Time nods in agreement.

Liu Nian was somewhat reserved when she went to see Gu Minhang's grandfather.

She was a little nervous the whole way.

Gu Minhang noticed it and gently stroked her hair in a comforting manner.

"Grandfather is a very kind old man, and he's easy to talk to, so don't be nervous."

"Why didn't you tell me beforehand that you were bringing me to see my grandfather? I didn't even have time to prepare a gift."
