After the Gu family left, the atmosphere in the ancestral hall became even more festive. Everyone raised their glasses, chatted, and laughed.

They also watched the flower girl and boy performance brought by Jiang Nuan and Shi Tou. Jiang Nuan danced at the back, pulling Su Li and other children to join. Finally, she went over to grab Su Bing for a game of charades.

Before Su Bing could refuse, Jiang Nuan deprived him of the opportunity to speak by tying a red cloth around his mouth.

She said, “You go first, no speaking, only use actions to act out the words you

See.

Su Bing’s face was cold. The other children’s minds went blank when they saw him. In the end, only Jiang Nuan dared to partner up with him for the guessing game, and they cooperated seamlessly, becoming the champions of the game.

To add more fun for the children, Gu Zi took out White Rabbit milk candies as rewards for the game. The championship team, consisting of Su Bing and Jiang Nuan, received three candies each.

The second and third-place teams received two candies each, while Su Li and Shi Tou, being enthusiastic participants, like the other children, got one candy each.

Su Bing handed both candies to Jiang Nuan, saying, “I don’t like sweet things.” He gave the remaining one to Su Li.

Su Li was especially happy and asked Gu Zi to unwrap it for him. Su Bing watched calmly from the side.

After the other children scattered, Jiang Nuan said to Gu Zi, “Auntie, please give this candy to Su Bing and help him unwrap it. Every child needs candies unwrapped by their mom.”

After the lunch, Jiang Nuan and her mother returned to the city. Gu Zi suddenly realized that she might have overlooked Su Bing, who was sensible. Just because he said he didn’t want something, it didn’t necessarily mean he didn’t need it.

Jiang Nuan was undoubtedly a warm-hearted girl. Following her suggestion, Gu Zi gave the unwrapped candy to Su Bing. Su Bing was momentarily stunned but couldn’t bring himself to refuse a candy unwrapped by his mom.

He placed the candy in his mouth, finding it exceptionally delicious, as if the sweetness came not just from the candy itself.

The helpers in the ancestral hall were tidying up the tables and preparing for the evening banquet.

Su Shen accompanied Gu Zi back home, instructing her to take a good rest.

Deputy Chief He and the other big shots also followed him back to the Su family’s residence and took a nap in the Su family’s guest room.

For Su Shen’s wedding banquet, they needed to complete the entire course to feel satisfied.

Inside the bridal chamber, Gu Zi carefully removed her wedding shoes and placed them aside, walking barefoot into the room.

Su Shen had decorated the room in a dreamlike manner, with rose petals covering the floor and a fragrance filling the air.

The bed was adorned with beddings hand-embroidered by Mama Lin and Li Hua. In the center of the bed, there was a large “Double Happiness” character made of peanuts, red dates, walnuts, and other foods, creating a festive atmosphere.

Gu Zi also noticed an additional item near her dressing table, covered with a red cloth.

She heard the sound of the door opening and knew that it was Su Shen. She asked, “What is this?”

Su Shen walked over and put his arm around her waist. She was dressed in a cheongsam personally selected by him, with classical updo and elegant makeup featuring plum blossom accessories, making her look noble and charming.

The man kissed the red plum on her forehead and said, “It’s for you to do research and also a way to kill time.”

He took her hand to lift the red cloth, revealing the latest model of a computer in Gu Zi’s sight. She was genuinely surprised, exclaiming, “It’s a computer!”

Considering that computers were luxury items in this era, with high prices even in foreign countries, where computer usage was not yet widespread. In China, an average person’s lifetime income might not be enough to afford one.

Computers were primarily used by institutions, research institutes, etc., for business purposes. It was rare for households to own a computer, especially in rural areas.

Gu Zi felt ecstatic about having a computer. Holding Su Shen, she tiptoed and initiated a kiss.

The man’s desire was ignited by her actions. His strong arms embraced her soft waist, and the delicate, warm skin felt wonderful. The cheongsam was quickly disheveled, and he shifted from being passive to taking the lead, devouring the tip of her tongue into his mouth.

Su Shen’s kisses left Gu Zi with rosy cheeks, breathless. However, her breath was stifled as the man sealed her lips, and she couldn’t even let out a whimper.

It wasnt until she was pressed against the wall, a few buttons of her cheongsam undone, that the man’s tongue explored her ample chest. Gu Zi finally breathed in the fresh air.

He mumbled, “Gu Zi, are you a bit nervous?” Her heart raced rapidly, the kind of accelerated heartbeat stimulated by desire..
