Gu Zi bent down, pinching the chubby cheeks of little Shi Tou, and replied, “Auntie is moving back to the city. It’s not too far away. When I have time, I’ll bring you some treats. I won’t forget about you, my adorable Shi Tou.”

Upon hearing this, Shi Tou’s eyes widened, the corners of his mouth lifting into a small smile. He extended his plump little finger, “Auntie, pinky promise.”

Gu Zi complied, extending her pinky to make the child’s pact. Aunt Zhang, watching from the side, couldn’t help but feel her eyes well up with tears. “Gu Zi,” she said, “Can’t you stay a few more days? You’re moving so suddenly, I wasn’t prepared.”

Aunt Zhang had grown fond of her neighbor, Gu Zi. She had anticipated that a woman like Gu Zi wouldn’t stay in the village forever. It would be a waste of a gem. However, she hadn’t expected Gu Zi’s departure to come so soon. She wouldn’t be able to visit Gu Zi anymore.

Gu Zi replied, “We’ve already arranged for our new house. The weather has been good these past few days, and it’s a good time to move. We also need to arrange for the boys’ school transfer. It’s better to move sooner rather than later.”

Despite Aunt Zhang’s reluctance, she had no reason to keep them. She had brought Shi Tou over to say a proper goodbye. Taking a deep breath, she smiled and said, “That’s true. It’s better to get used to the new environment sooner. I won’t hold you up any longer. I wish you a smooth journey. Oh, and don’t mind my meddling, but I have something to tell you.”

Aunt Zhang’s voice grew softer, her words becoming a whisper meant only for the two of them. “I’ve heard that men have a certain age where their fertility decreases. Su Shen is quite a bit older than you. As he ages, the quality of his sperm will decline, and the baby might not be as intelligent.

“I advise you to consider this carefully. If you want a child, it’s better to do it sooner rather than later. Don’t wait until Su Shen is unable to keep up, understand?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Zi nearly burst into laughter. After getting into the car, she glanced at Su Shen, who was focused on driving. He was so handsome. But remembering Aunt Zhang’s words, she couldn’t help but smile. She was curious, would there come a day when he would be unable to keep up?

Unbeknownst to Gu Zi, the man in the driver’s seat was fully focused on driving, but he didn’t miss any of her expressions. However, it wasn’t the right time for him to say anything. He decided to settle the matter with her later that night.

After nearly two hours of driving, they finally stopped. Su Shen got out of the car, carrying Su Le in his arms to open the gate. Gu Zi opened the back door, waking up the two brothers who had fallen asleep during the journey. As they stepped out of the car and took in the scene before them, they were completely stunned. Had they stepped into a movie?

It was Su Bing, the older brother, who recovered first. Swallowing hard, he asked, “Mom, Dad, is this our home?”

The beautiful house, complete with a front and back yard and surrounded by greenery, was something he had only seen on TV. Now, it was their home!

Su Li also snapped out of his daze, following his father through the gate with a gasp of awe. “Wow, such a big house, so beautiful! One, two, three, it’s three stories! That’s one more than our house in Daqing Village. Mom, can we invite Shi Tou over?”

To be honest, he was going to miss Shi Tou. Although he sometimes felt annoyed when Shi Tou acted cute around his mom, it was only because he cared too much about his mother’s love. He was afraid that his mother would give too much attention to Shi Tou. But he was grateful to Shi Tou, who never called him a child without parents.

Gu Zi nodded, smiling, “Of course. We’ll be hosting a housewarming party soon, and we’ll invite Shi Tou. As long as his grandmother has time to bring him over, it’s fine. Now, let’s go to the third floor and check out your rooms.”

Su Li, as happy as a little bird, fluttered around Gu Zi as they walked. “Our rooms are on the third floor? That’s great, I love the third floor.”

The house, which had seemed cold and empty, suddenly came alive with the arrival of its owners and Su Li’s cheerful chatter.

Gu Zi thought, here, they would start a new chapter. She didn’t know what the journey would be like, but she hoped the ending would be a happy one. For Su Shen, for their three children, everything had to be good. She believed it would be.

While Gu Zi was showing the boys their rooms, Su Shen went downstairs. Outside the villa’s gate, two trucks had pulled up. Jin Long jumped down from the front truck and walked through the gate. “Brother Shen,” he said, “I’ll have the truck in the back unload first. It’s carrying the new furniture.”
