He had always been the only one that thanked him. He would never easily say the word 'thank you'.

But now, he really felt that he couldn't find a better word to describe his current feelings other than a ”thank you”.

Gu Qi took the flower from Xin Nianyin's hand, lowered her voice, and asked doubtfully, ”You, know?”

”I heard from the butler that this kind of flower is what mother and brother like the most, so I picked some for myself. Did I do wrong?”

Xin Nianyin didn't say how far she had walked from the flowers and was almost bitten by a snake.

”Xin Xinyin, thank you.”

With a voice that could only be heard by two people, Gu Jianming tightened his grip on her hand. Thank you for your care, thank you for doing all this.

Thank you, you know me.

However, he didn't say these words out loud. He could only spend the rest of his life loving her and protecting her, never abandoning her.

However, things were unpredictable. In the end, he had let her down, and after a long time, they no longer interacted with each other. Only then did he realize that the greatest gentleness in the world was when someone was willing to wash his hands and make him soup.

When he wanted to offer a sacrifice, someone offered him a bunch of flowers and asked softly, ”Is this okay?”

Gu Yue really believed that he would always be able to follow Xin Xuanyin like this. In fact, every year at this time, Gu Yue's mood would always be very low.

Arriving at her brother's and mother's graves with her, he would always think of their deaths, and some of them were still complacent.

The pain had tormented him so much that he could not sleep all night.

Xin Nianyin could understand Gu Jianming's words. They had such similar experiences, but they also felt pain that no one else knew about.

Xin Xinyin imitated Gu Mi's actions, but she didn't say anything to comfort her. Instead, she gently walked to Gu Mi's mother's grave, squatted down, and stared at the photo of the woman on the tombstone.

She parted her cherry lips as if in promise. ”Mother, please be at ease, I will take good care of the boy who will soon be born, and I will bring him to see you every year.”

As he spoke, he solemnly placed the flower on the gravestone before Bai Qing.

Ignoring his pregnant body, he went forward and solemnly bowed three times and then kowtowed three times. His actions were as pious as if he was kowtowing to his own mother.

Gu Qi silently looked at Xin Xinyin's series of actions, facing his mother's grave, in his heart, he made up his mind.

Xin Xinyin, I will not let you down in this life.

Two sacrifices, one husband and wife, from then on determined to live the same life and die the same.

Back home, Xin Nianyin wanted to make the world's most special, warm New Year's Eve dinner together.

Although he had never done such a thing before, he was willing to try anything with her.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the kitchen was much more lively.

Although this was their first time cooking together, they didn't have any feeling of disharmony. Their cooperation was flawless.

Gu Qi's patience, also showed an unprecedented good.

For example, he would tell her that she should cut the steak into one centimeter pieces. Not only would the steak taste good, but it would also have a unique flavor when paired with the red wine.

Xin Nianyin's serious look made people like her. Her modesty and studious attitude were very charming. The most important thing was that she had no doubt about what she said in her field of expertise.

Gu Qi seized the opportunity to hold Xin Nianyin in her arms and hold her right hand in her own. She began teaching Xin Yin how to cut the steak bit by bit.

Xin Nianyin was like a child, showing a strong interest in studying. The Gu Qi behind her was different. He started to be dishonest after the steak was not even cut in two.

He had thought more than once that the woman in his arms must have drugged him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain why he couldn't remain as still as a bell the moment he touched her.
