Chi Cheese nodded with a bright smile, "I think so too! I also feel very fortunate to have been able to play with my great-grandfather for so long!"
Grandpa Chi stared at Chi Naozhi and smiled, "Now that you've caught Xu Zhiming, your family is safe."
Chi Cheese nodded.
“It’s getting late, Great-Grandfather must be leaving.” Old Master Chi stood up.
"Where are you going, great-grandfather?" Chi Nao asked in a soft and cute voice.
"My great-grandfather was going to a very, very far place."
"Great-grandfather, will you come back?" Chi Nao asked innocently, lifting her little face.
Grandpa Chi smiled, not answering her question directly, but saying, "If you miss your great-grandfather, just look up at the stars, and he will be watching over you from heaven."
Chi Nai nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
She was about to ask her great-grandfather which star to look at.
But in the blink of an eye, my great-grandfather disappeared, and all that remained was a thick fog.
“Great-grandfather—great-grandfather—” Chi Nao shouted into the thick fog.
There was only silence in response.
“Great-grandfather—great-grandfather—” Chi Cheese continued to call out.
Meanwhile, Chi Nao, who was lying in bed fast asleep with her eyes closed, was murmuring, "Great-grandfather... Great-grandfather..."
She woke up suddenly, and after a moment of confusion, realized that it was all a dream.
She sighed, turned her little head, and her pupils widened instantly.
In the corner, Mom sat on Dad's lap, and the two hugged and kissed.
A smile appeared on Chi Nai's little face.
Hehe, Mom and Dad finally kissed.
Hmph, he actually did this while she was asleep, without even waiting for her to wake up, just in front of her.
Chi Nai was overjoyed, her smile grew wider and wider, and she even moved her little head.
Chi Baiyi opened his eyes casually and caught a glimpse of his daughter looking at them with a motherly smile.
Chi Baiyi's eyelids twitched. He released Qin Yuanyao and whispered in her ear, "Cheese is awake and is smiling at us."
Qin Yuanyao, who was still somewhat dazed, was startled awake by Chi Baiyi's words.
She jumped up from Chi Baiyi's lap in a panic, but was so excited that she almost lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Chi Baiyi stood up in time and grabbed her hand, stabilizing her balance.
Chi Baiyi found it funny.
He turned around with Qin Yuanyao in his arms, his back to Chi Naozhi. Using his height advantage, he hid Qin Yuanyao in his arms, so that Chi Naozhi couldn't see what they were doing.
"What are you doing?!" Qin Yuanyao demanded in a voice only the two of them could hear.
The cheese has already woken up, what else does Chi Baiyi want to do!
"You're so flustered, aren't you letting Cheese know we know she's peeping?" Chi Baiyi said in a voice only the two of them could hear.
Qin Yuanyao was slightly taken aback.
That makes perfect sense.
The more flustered she became, the more it seemed like she was trying to cover something up.
"Then what should I do?" Qin Yuanyao asked deliberately.
"Pretend we didn't do anything, pretend we didn't know she was watching."
Qin Yuanyao chuckled, "Mr. Chi, you really have a lot of experience."
Chi Baiyi chuckled and said, "I'll probably do this often ten years from now."
Qin Yuanyao glared at him, pushed him away, and pretended to look up as if nothing had happened, pretending to accidentally see Chi Nao's bright eyes.
Qin Yuanyao feigned surprise and exclaimed, "Baby, why are you awake?!"
Chi Nai's lips curved into a smile, and she couldn't stop smiling.
Qin Yuanyao pretended not to notice and didn't ask what she was laughing at, lest Chi Naozhi steal the initiative in the conversation.
Chi Nai was tactful enough not to reveal what she had just seen.
She simply raised an eyebrow at Chi Baiyi meaningfully.
Chi Baiyi "..."
Why did you only raise your eyebrows at him and not at Qin Yuanyao?
Do you think he's even more shameless? Wouldn't he feel embarrassed even if she saw it?
Qin Yuanyao was indeed extremely embarrassed at this moment.
She cleared her throat and asked deliberately, "Did you have a nightmare, baby?"
Chi Nai nodded, then shook her head. "I dreamt of Grandpa Xu, and I also dreamt of my great-grandfather."
"What did you dream about Xu Zhiming?" Chi Baiyi asked.
"I dreamt that Grandpa Xu wanted our family company to go bankrupt. He found Cui Yi, gave Cui Yi a lot of money, and asked Cui Yi to set our house on fire," Chi Nao said softly.
Chi Baiyi and Qin Yuanyao exchanged a glance.
Every time Chi Cheese dreams of the arson incident ten years later, it has a specific meaning.
In other words, Chi Nao's dream this time explains why Xu Zhiming ordered the arson and that Xu Zhiming did indeed contact Cui Yi to set the fire.
"Then I dreamed of my great-grandfather. He was crying, so sad. He said he never expected Grandpa Xu to hate our family so much. So I comforted him with the words my dad told me!" Chi Nao said, raising her chin with a touch of pride at the end.
Chi Baiyi gently patted her little head. "My little darling did a great job."
“My great-grandfather said he was very happy that I traveled from ten years in the future, that he saw me, and that we spent so much time together. I said I was also very happy to have spent so much time with my great-grandfather. My great-grandfather told me that if I missed him in the future, I should look at the stars in the sky. But my great-grandfather didn’t tell me which star to look at before he disappeared.” Chi Nao Che pouted sadly.
Qin Yuanyao hugged Chi Naozi tightly.
Both she and Chi Baiyi understood that Old Master Chi had appeared in a dream to say his final goodbye to Chi Naozi.
“Any star will do,” Qin Yuanyao said, patting Chi Nao’s little head. “As long as you look at the star, your great-grandfather will know that you miss her, and he will be watching over you from heaven.”
"Really?" Chi Nao asked.
Qin Yuanyao nodded. "Really."
Chi Nai Cheese became happy. "Okay! I will look at the stars every day from now on, so that my great-grandfather will know that I think of him every day, and that my great-grandfather will think of me every day too."
Qin Yuanyao smiled gently and said, "Mm."
Chi Nai snuggled in Qin Yuanyao's arms for a while, then suddenly asked, "Mommy, when are you going to take me to see my grandparents?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Baiyi looked at Qin Yuanyao with a meaningful and expectant gaze.
Qin Yuanyao was stunned.
She and Chi Baiyi had only been officially dating for a few months. If she took Chi Nai Cheese back to her hometown, Chi Baiyi would definitely have to go with her.
In other words, this is equivalent to her taking Chi Bai to meet her parents.
She hadn't planned to develop their relationship so quickly, so she hadn't considered taking Chi Cheese back to her hometown yet.
Seeing that her mother was silent, Chi Nao said, "Mom, are you worried that Grandpa and Grandma don't like me? I promise you, Grandpa and Grandma like me very much!"
Qin Yuanyao smiled.
Looking at Chi Nao's appearance, she knew that ten years later, her parents would definitely love their little granddaughter very much.
