Carrying numerous toys, Shen Qiang arrived at the bun shop, and as soon as he reached the entrance, he saw the charming and graceful young woman, Gao Hui. She was holding the child and smiling beside the cash register, watching the busy Jing Xiangwei, not knowing what she was saying sweetly.

As soon as she caught sight of Shen Qiang, her beautiful eyes brightened instantly, and her expression turned to surprise.

Shen Qiang took a deep breath and walked over.

At this moment, the little one in her arms not only remembered Shen Qiang but also reached out his hands upon seeing him, calling, "Daddy, Daddy, hold me!"

The surrounding diners immediately looked at Shen Qiang in surprise.

"Oh, Western boss lady, is this your partner? Wow, he's quite handsome, looks like a movie star."

"Yes, I often come to your place to buy buns, but it's the first time I'm seeing your partner. This kid's father is quite handsome and young, looking like he's in his early twenties."

"Oh, truly a talented man and beautiful woman, with the boss lady, they look like a golden couple."

These comments from the diners made Jing Xiangwei smile with her eyes bent in joy.

The nervous young woman Gao Hui instantly blushed and quickly explained, "It's not like you think. This is my son's godfather, his godfather."

A grandmother receiving her change grinned and said, "This boss lady sure has a sense of humor. Can a child this young lie? He's calling 'Daddy,' and still trying to fool us. Boss, your buns are good; I come twenty times a month, so don't think of raising prices."

These words made Shen Qiang smile with his eyes bent.

The young woman Gao Hui's face turned red, wanting to clarify but not knowing where to start.

"Come on, son, Daddy has bought you lots of fun things." Saying this, Shen Qiang nodded at Jing Xiangwei and then went upstairs with the child.

Upstairs, in the room.

The little one looked at the walking toy Ultraman, extremely happy.

After quite a while, the charming and graceful young woman Gao Hui came up with Ke Bizhu.

"Be good, baby. Auntie will take you to see cars, okay?" Ke Bizhu said with a cheerful smile.

The little one gleefully pounced into her arms.

Soon, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu took the child out.

Sitting on the foam board-covered floor, Shen Qiang looked up at the charming young woman Gao Hui.

Not having seen her for some time, now she seemed very healthy, her skin was fair, her figure graceful. Although she wasn't heavily made up, her fresh face was as beautiful as a peach blossom.

Gazing at her quietly being watched by Shen Qiang, she seemed a bit dazed, then blurted out, "Have you finished your work there?"

Shen Qiang smiled, sat on the foam floor, leaned against the small sofa behind him, and said, "Yes, that's why I came to see you today."

Hearing this, Gao Hui smiled with her eyes bent, turned sideways, and sat on the foam floor too. Her long legs and socks outlined an enchanting curve, and her expression was also as gentle as water.

Looking at her quietly, Shen Qiang took a deep breath and said, "Do you remember?"

The young woman Gao Hui was taken aback, then asked in surprise, "What?"

Shen Qiang remained silent.

Then he sighed.

If forgotten, just let it be.

Some things are best not remembered.

Thinking of this, Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows with a smile, "Nothing really, it's just that today is already the tenth of the New Year month. I have many things to do in the upcoming days and after the fifteenth, I'm going to Beijing to study. Thinking of coming to see you might not be as convenient anymore."

Hearing this, Gao Hui smiled mysteriously, then laughed, "Xiangwei told me about it; it's a good thing. People should aim higher while water flows downward; go out and have a look. The Provincial City is not small, but the world is vast. Isn't there a song that goes, 'The outside world is very exciting'?"

Shen Qiang smiled, "Would you like to come with me to Beijing and open a Western bun shop there?"

The young woman Gao Hui chuckled, "And then?"

Shen Qiang frowned, "Of course, make more money, open more bun shops."

The young woman Gao Hui laughed, "And then?"

Shen Qiang frowned and said, "Financial freedom, then you can do whatever you want, accompany the child, go shopping, completely free."

The young woman Gao Hui smiled with her eyes bent, "No way, there's money in this world, you can't earn it all in several lifetimes. But life, you only live once. You may laugh at me for being content with small fortunes, or mock me for lacking ambition, but I'm very satisfied with life. I have money to send the baby to the best kindergarten, time to accompany him, and time to idly daydream. I already feel life is perfect."

Looking at Gao Hui, who chuckled while cutting kiwi for him and handing it over.

Shen Qiang hesitated, "But nothing in this world stays unchanged forever. If you don't use this opportunity to develop, maybe in the future, you'll be eliminated by the catering industry."

The young woman Gao Hui laughed and said, "I will work very hard to manage this small shop, and work very hard to live my life well. Exploring the world, I leave to men like you; I just want to stay here quietly, watching you step by step reach the peak."

Shen Qiang was silent for a moment, then laughed, "I won't let you down."

The young woman Gao Hui laughed sweetly, "I know, you're the kind of man who won't easily give up even in adversity. You have greater goals, more ambitious ideals, otherwise, you would choose to stay here like me."

Shen Qiang smiled and then seriously said, "Gao Hui, be with me."

The young woman Gao Hui's face turned red instantly, then she playfully said, "What nonsense are you talking? I'm a widow with a child, you're the boss of Heshenghe and a medical genius. With me, they'd point fingers at you, change ways to mock you, rumors are plenty."

"I don't care." Shen Qiang said seriously.

The young woman Gao Hui immediately said, "We've talked about this before, you don't care, but I do. I don't want you to be gossiping fodder. Besides, aren't you going to Beijing to study? Just right, my sister is in Beijing; I'll introduce you to her. She was a campus belle during her school days, very beautiful, no less than Jing Xiangwei."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang's mood fell heavily, he sighed, "No need, I actually don't care about your campus belle sister, moreover, you should know, I lack no beauties around me."

These words made the young woman Gao Hui's eyes fill with tenderness.

Seeing the emotionally downcast Shen Qiang, she suddenly smiled charmingly and said, "Alright, then wait until your studies are successful and you're accomplished, at that time, if you still want me to be with you, I'll follow you anywhere, to the ends of the earth."
