Chapter 2033: Miserable Fiancée vs. Daughter of a Wealthy Family (End)

Chang Gensheng frequently glanced at his daughter.

Qi Chengxuan understood perfectly, and candidly said he wanted to see the flowers in Gu Shengyin’s previous courtyard, making an excuse to leave them alone and give space to the father and daughter.

"Jiujiu, he..." Chang Gensheng wanted to ask many questions.

But a father, after all, is not like a mother; there are things he really found tough to ask outright.

Gu Shengyin, however, understood all his unspoken words.

She smiled, the radiance on her face full of happiness and joy: "Dad, I’m doing great, he’s very good to me, and the Prince Ping’s Mansion is also wonderful."

Chang Gensheng finally felt at ease.

His daughter’s complexion doesn’t lie, and her smile doesn’t lie.

She’s living well.

Chang Gensheng felt as though the stone pressing on his chest for three days and nights was finally moved away.

As long as she is doing well, that’s enough.

This way he can be at peace.

No matter how old he gets in the future, when he can no longer look after her, there will be someone else, taking his place as the father, sheltering her from wind and rain.

This is really good.

Qi Chengxuan guessed the timing was about right, and upon returning, saw the father and daughter sitting closely together, seemingly chatting very happily.

Seeing him approach, the father-in-law seemed to be in a rather good mood and warmly invited him for tea.

Qi Chengxuan didn’t quite understand, but felt very happy nevertheless.

The couple stayed until after dinner before heading back to the mansion.

In the carriage, Qi Chengxuan curiously asked, "What did you say to Dad?"

He wondered if it was just him, but he felt that this time, the father-in-law was even more affectionate toward him.

Gu Shengyin let him gently massage her sore shoulders, and upon hearing his words, she smiled.

She turned her head, earnestly gazed at this handsome man.

"I told Dad that you’re very good to me, and I’m living well at Prince Ping’s Mansion."

Qi Chengxuan’s hands suddenly paused.

He raised his head, locking eyes with Gu Shengyin.

The next moment, the hand resting on her arm moved, and Gu Shengyin was pulled into his embrace.

Qi Chengxuan held her tightly, sighing contentedly, "My wife is just so dear."

Gu Shengyin adjusted slightly and found a comfortable position to lean against him, lazily saying, "Of course, marrying me is your good fortune."

Qi Chengxuan earnestly nodded, "I also feel that meeting Jiujiu is the greatest fortune of my life..."

The last words faded into Gu Shengyin’s ear.

The warmth of his breath burned at her ear, making Gu Shengyin slightly uncomfortable, twitching her ear, and she chided softly, "Keep it down outside!"

Qi Chengxuan laughed quietly, leaning close to her ear to ask, "Does that mean... if we’re at the mansion, I can do as I please?"

Gu Shengyin: "..."

She glared at him hard, saying nothing.

The carriage gently rocked, and after a satisfying meal not long ago, Gu Shengyin soon started feeling drowsy.

"Jiujiu..." A deep voice seemed to sound at her ear.

"Hmm~" she replied hazily.

Qi Chengxuan looked at her dreamy state, filled with boundless affection.

He leaned in to give her a light kiss on the cheek, softly saying, "I love you."

The seemingly asleep person didn’t respond.

Yet the corners of her lips subtly turned upward, revealing a very faint smile.
