So sweet! She's pampered like a precious gem in her little world.

A month later.

The banquet hall of the Shang family manor.

A huge, luxurious crystal chandelier hangs above the lobby on the first floor. The banquet hall is brightly lit, and guests are dressed in elegant attire, clinking glasses and exchanging pleasantries.

Outside the window, the night was deepening, while inside the hall, the grand banquet was just beginning.

The banquet hall was some distance from the main building where Shang Xuzhi and his family lived. After changing into their formal attire, the two drove to the banquet hall.

This place is usually almost deserted; the last time it was this lively was when Shang Xuzhi turned eighteen and came of age.

After his brother got married, he moved out to live elsewhere. This manor was a gift from his brother to him when he came of age.

Today, Chu Yu wore a champagne-colored silk satin dress. The soft fabric hugged her graceful figure, making her appear both voluptuous and slender.

Her long, jet-black hair was styled in waves, her skin was fair and her appearance was pure and alluring.

Shang Xuzhi went around to the passenger seat, helped the person out of the car, and casually draped a matching shawl that he had prepared in advance over her shoulders.

He preferred to have the little girl draped in his clothes, as if he were holding her tightly in his arms, which gave him a sense of contentment.

But his little one loves to dress up, so he had no choice but to let her choose a shawl that matched her dress.

When the two appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall, the once bustling hall fell silent for a moment.

Those invited to the Shang Family Manor for the gala were naturally all members of the upper class and elites. Even so, many of those present today were having the rare opportunity to meet Shang Xuzhi in person for the first time.

The banquet was publicly announced to celebrate Shang Xuzhi's recovery from his leg ailment. Only a very few people who were close to the Shang family knew that it was actually an engagement banquet that Shang Xuzhi had prepared for his beloved daughter.

Worried that Chu Yu might not be used to such an occasion, the banquet hall's lighting was specially treated to ensure its illumination function while also softening the light.

The surrounding walls and pillars were also reinforced with sound-absorbing cotton, which effectively reduced noise in the banquet hall.

A tall, handsome man intimately embraced a beautiful and charming girl as they slowly walked into the banquet hall.

The room was kept at a constant temperature. Shang Xuzhi reached out and took off her shawl, then handed it to a waiter standing nearby.

Then he leaned down and whispered in her ear, "If you feel uncomfortable, tell me right away, okay?"

In order to help her adapt to the banquet environment in advance, Shang Xuzhi has taken the little girl out for socialization training many times in the past month.

Social anxiety is really painful for people who are initially socially anxious.

She desperately wanted to tell the man that she wasn't uncomfortable in this kind of setting at all; on the contrary, in her previous life, she had been most familiar with stage lights.

What made her most uncomfortable was that men frequently took her to social events...

i's darkest hour.

Shang Xuzhi introduced Chu Yu to several friends with whom he had a good relationship.

While the man was talking to his friend, the young girl quietly reached out and swiped a glass of beautifully colored champagne from a passing waiter's tray.

In her past life, she attended many such occasions, but she almost never drank alcohol because she had no one to rely on and could only protect herself.

Things are different now. She turned her head to look at the man who was talking seriously.

He only said not to drink when he wasn't around, but now that he's here, it shouldn't be a problem for her to have a few sips, right?

No sooner had her lips touched the rim of the glass than the man's warm hand grasped hers.

A deep, gentle male voice sounded in her ear: "Your period is about to start, how about you drink some juice first today? There's some more at home if you want, I'll let you try it later, okay?"

His friend, who had been talking to him, also laughed. He never expected that the decisive and efficient head of the Shang family in the business world would get along with his little wife like this...so effeminate.

Halfway through the banquet, Shang Xuzhi suddenly had to leave. He led her to a corner of the banquet hall and told her to sit obediently on the sofa and wait for him to return.

Chu Yu pretended not to know his plan and obediently sat on the sofa eating a small cake.

Not long after the man left, the lights in the banquet hall suddenly changed, and the entire hall held its breath in anticipation.

Chu Yu sat in the corner and couldn't see what was happening in the distance. She could only tell from the faint gasps and gasps that Shang Xuzhi must have appeared.

The crowd that had been gathered automatically parted to make way, and it was only then that she could see the man at the other end of the path.

Shang Xuzhi looked exactly the same as when he left.

His eyes were filled with deep affection as he stared at the beautiful figure on the sofa. He slowly walked up to her and knelt on one knee.

Then he held the small velvet box in his hand in front of the girl and opened it.

It is a huge teardrop-shaped diamond ring, surrounded by a whole circle of small round diamonds, which is gorgeous and dazzling under the light.

Those present were all top-tier dignitaries, and many recognized this as the world record-breaking rough stone that had recently been auctioned off to a mysterious buyer for a nine-figure sum.

Shang Xuzhi personally participated in the design and invited several top diamond cutting experts to urgently process this unique engagement ring.

Even though she was mentally prepared, Chu Yu was still shocked by the huge and dazzling diamond ring in front of her.

The man in front of her paused, then said in a deep voice, "Chu Chu, although we haven't known each other for very long, it's enough for me to be certain that for the rest of my long life, I only want to be with you."

"will you marry me?"

The entire banquet hall was silent, and Shang Xuzhi could hear his own heart pounding like a drum.

Unbeknownst to anyone, his hand, holding the diamond ring, trembled slightly with nervousness, and his palms were already damp with sweat.

Chu Yu didn't keep him waiting for long. After a few seconds of silence, she said softly, "Okay, I'm willing."

Upon hearing this, the man's usually calm face broke into one of ecstatic joy.

He took out the ring with trembling hands, first wiping the sweat from his palms with a handkerchief from his pocket, and then carefully holding the little girl's outstretched hand, meticulously and attentively putting the ring on her finger.

Cheers and blessings erupted from all around.

Anyone with eyes could see that Shang Xuzhi was head over heels in love with this Miss Chu Chu.

Chu Yu got up and was gently embraced by the man.

Shang Xuzhi lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Please guide me in the future, Mrs. Shang."

-

Shang Xuzhi's affection level reached 99% on the day he successfully proposed.

Only 1% difference.

Chu Yu originally thought that 1% would be their wedding.

But not really.

Even after they had completed their grand wedding, their affection for each other remained unchanged.

Later, the man took her on a world tour as their honeymoon.

The affection level remained unchanged.

No abnormalities were found in the data, and the system showed that the task was still in progress.

Chu Yu is unable to have children in the small world, something Little Milk Cake told her at the beginning.

She wondered if it was because the two of them didn't have children that the man felt a sense of incompleteness.

If that's the case, she might never be able to complete this task.

So, after a passionate encounter, Chu Yu lay panting in the man's arms, her slender white fingertips unconsciously drawing circles on his chest.

“Narrate it.”

"Ok?"

"If I can't give you a child, will you feel regret?"

Shang Xuzhi was taken aback upon hearing this; he had noticed this issue long ago.

He secretly went for a physical examination, and everything was fine.

That must be Xiao Bao's problem.

However, due to her unique physical condition, even if she has a problem, there may be no way to resolve it, and there is also a risk of exposure.

They had never taken any precautions, and after so long they hadn't gotten pregnant even once, and the little girl was so oblivious that she didn't even realize it.

Why bring this up all of a sudden today?

Is someone being so oblivious as to gossip about her?

Upon considering this possibility, a ruthless glint flashed in the man's dark eyes.

"Why did Xiaobao suddenly ask this?"

The man's voice was steady and normal, as if he were chatting with her about everyday things.

"My situation is rather unique, so I might really be unable to have children..."

The little girl's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

Shang Xuzhi felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart and hugged the person tighter.

"It's okay, baby, I know."

Even if you get pregnant, I will still worry about whether your body is suitable for childbirth.

"The child isn't important to me, all I want is for you to be alright, okay?"

Although he lost a lot in his life, he was also fortunate enough to be pitied.

It is enough.

He didn't have any more extravagant hopes.

As long as his little girl can stay by his side.

-

After Shang Xun came of age, he was brought into the group by Shang Xuzhi to work.

While Shang Xuzhi was helping him familiarize himself with the group's operations, he was gradually delegating authority to him.

Until he was twenty-three years old.

He is now capable of taking over the Shang family business.

Shang Xuzhi gave up his seat to him without hesitation.

He then took his young wife on a trip to enjoy the scenery and lived a blissful life as an idyllic couple.

Shang Xuzhi suffered a serious injury when he was young, which damaged his body.

By the time he was sixty-eight, he was bedridden.

Chu Yu stayed by his bedside every day to take care of him and keep him company, just as he had once done for her.

The man cherished her dearly throughout his life, and even on his deathbed, he couldn't bear to see her tired.

On the third day of his illness, the man passed away peacefully in his sleep.

He couldn't bear to burden his beloved little girl until his death.

When Chu Yu woke up, the man beside her was already cold and stiff. She trembled as she grabbed his hand, overwhelmed by immense fear and grief.

[Ding! The target's affection level has reached 100%. Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the mission. You have earned five merit points for this mission.]

original.

It turned out to be the case.

He only felt fulfilled at the moment of his death?

[Host, the system has detected excessive emotional fluctuations. To prevent any impact on your health, a forced procedure is now initiating to bring you back.]

—The End—
