Liu Yanran's face was filled with a happy smile, her eyes sparkling with tears, and she responded affectionately: "I love you too, Gu Shijing. Your love is so deep and sincere that it makes me feel extremely warm and at ease. May our love always be so beautiful and never leave each other."
Their eyes met, beaming with happiness and a look of deep affection. Then, they embraced again, tightly, as if merging into one. In this quiet moment, their hearts were deeply connected, and without words, they could feel each other's warmth and care.
They understand that the beauty of this moment will become an indelible memory in their lives, forever treasured in the softest corner of their hearts. No matter how time passes, how the years pass, this deep feeling will be like a dazzling pearl, emitting endless brilliance.
Liu Yanran raised a gentle smile at the corner of her mouth, gently took Gu Shijing's hand, and whispered: "It's very late now, how about... you stay here with me tonight and rest?" Her tone was a little shy, but her eyes were shining with determination and expectation.
However, Gu Shijing shook his head firmly, his eyes clear and determined. "No, we're not officially married yet, and it's not legally binding. If I stay here overnight, it will damage your reputation and I can't let you come to any harm. Don't worry, I can just find a place to stay." His tone was firm, clearly unwilling to embarrass Liu Yanran.
Liu Yanran nodded gratefully, her heart filled with emotion. She knew that Gu Shijing had always been a responsible person. He always put her first, even at the cost of his own comfort and convenience.
So, she decided to spread soft bedding for Gu Shijing in the room next to hers, creating a warm and comfortable environment for him. She personally selected the softest bedding and pillows to ensure that Gu Shijing would sleep comfortably. Then, she carefully cleaned the room and arranged everything in order, hoping to give Gu Shijing a warm and homey feeling.
When everything was ready, Liu Yanran sat quietly by the bed, silently gazing at Gu Shijing. Her eyes were filled with tenderness and reassurance, as if the whole world would become beautiful as long as he was by her side. She gently stroked his face, feeling his warmth, her heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.
At this moment, she felt incredibly lucky to be able to spend the rest of her life with such a gentle and thoughtful man. She looked forward to the days ahead, when they would experience more ups and downs together and create beautiful memories of their own.
Gu Shijing felt a deep sense of fatigue wash over him, his eyelids gradually growing heavy, and before long he fell into a sweet dream. Liu Yanran remained by his side, watching over him until she was sure he was sound asleep. Then she gently stood up and returned to her room. She lay in bed, closed her eyes, and recalled the time she had just spent with Gu Shijing, her heart filled with happiness and contentment.
The next morning, the sun slowly rose. Soft sunlight streamed through the window, gently casting a light on Gu Shijing's face, as if giving him a gentle good morning kiss. The warm light caressed his face, awakening his dormant thoughts. He slowly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt a fresh breath surge into his heart, as if the whole world had been re-injected with vitality and energy.
Gu Shijing stretched, feeling every cell awaken. His mood was as bright as the rising sun, filled with anticipation for a new day. He smiled, enjoying the tranquility and beauty.
Then, he got out of bed, tidied his clothes, washed up, and walked out of the room to the yard. The moment he appeared in the yard, everyone in the yard stopped what they were doing and looked at him. Their eyes sparkled with surprise and joy, especially Mother Gu, who was so excited that she almost cried.
Mother Gu quickly stepped forward and hugged her son tightly. Her voice trembled, revealing her deepest emotions: "Shi Jing, when did you arrive? We've been looking forward to your return!" Her eyes were filled with joy, and tears welled up in her eyes, but she couldn't hide her deep longing for him.
Gu Shijing felt his mother's warm embrace, and a warm current surged in his heart. He replied softly, "Mom, I just got here yesterday at midnight. You don't know how worried I was when I returned to find the door of the family compound locked. I went to Brother Liu and Brother Liu's house but couldn't find anyone. In the end, it was Aunt Wang next door who told me that you all moved to Jing City. I didn't expect so many things to happen at home while I was away on a mission."
Mother Gu let go of her son's hand and carefully looked at his face, her eyes full of pity. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she choked and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. You've been away for so long, and there's not even a word from you. You don't know how worried Yanran and I are about you!"
Gu Shijing looked at his mother's excitement and felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He knew that he had been away from home for too long this time, causing his family to worry. He quickly comforted her, "I'm sorry, Mom, for making you worry. But now I'm back, everything will be fine."
"It's okay, I'm glad you're back." Mother Gu wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled with relief. She patted her son's shoulder and said softly, "Okay, go wash up, breakfast is ready."
Gu Shijing nodded, then turned and walked towards the bathroom. He turned on the faucet, letting the cool water fall on his hands and face. He wiped his cheeks with a towel, feeling the fresh morning air. After washing up, he tidied his clothes and walked out of the bathroom.
