"Are we going to Shengshi Entertainment tomorrow?"

"Yes, after I drop Nainai off at kindergarten tomorrow morning, we'll go straight there. It's best to deal with things early rather than late."

"I'll go with you."

"Okay."

In Jiangcheng, the family of three was having lunch. Xia Xiyao was still discussing tomorrow's plan with Gu Xingyi. For Gu Xingyi, this was a simple matter—breach of contract? Pay the fine, get the person, and it's done.

However, Xia Xiyao couldn't help but feel a little sentimental. When Miao Anyun had told her about it on WeChat earlier, she had a hard time believing it.

She clearly remembered Miao Anyun's performance at the StarSong Gathering. Who would have thought such an outstanding singer would be hidden away?

This just shows how ridiculous the entertainment industry is these days.

After lunch, Gu Xingyi settled into the couch, watching little Nainai play with her toys. Suddenly, he reached out and gently patted her little head.

"Nainai, do you want your own little bedroom?"

Little Nainai looked up at him in confusion. Gu Xingyi quickly added,

"Now that you're a big girl, Papa will prepare a separate room for you to sleep in. Is that okay?"

The little one understood this time. She immediately dropped her toy and hugged Gu Xingyi's arm, scrunching her little nose.

"No! Nainai wants to sleep with Papa and Mama."

"But Nainai is growing up. You need your own room. Otherwise, the other kids at kindergarten will make fun of you. Especially that Fang Xiaoxiao, he will definitely laugh and say Nainai is a baby who can't grow up!"

Gu Xingyi gently pinched Nainai's nose, patiently persuading her. He even brought up the little chubby kid Nainai disliked so much, hoping to convince her.

Sure enough, when Nainai heard she might be teased, her little brows furrowed, and a conflicted expression appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Gu Xingyi quickly pressed on.

"Your little bedroom will be very pretty! You'll love it! And Papa and Mama's room is right next door, very close!"

Nainai pouted her lips and finally agreed.

"Okay~ But Papa still has to tell me a story every night!"

"Of course! Papa and Mama will always make sure to tell our little treasure a story before bed! Let's make a pinky promise!"

With Nainai agreeing, Gu Xingyi's heart filled with joy as he quickly did the pinky promise with her.

It turns out, his little girl was the most sensible! He had seen online that many children needed a long time to be coaxed before they could sleep in their own rooms!

Once the agreement was made, Gu Xingyi happily shouted to Xia Xiyao, who was still tidying up in the kitchen.

"Dear, we don't have anything much to do this afternoon. How about we move? We don't need to bring much, everything is basically ready in the new house."

Xia Xiyao, who had been listening to Gu Xingyi coaxing Nainai, blushed slightly. Only when Gu Xingyi called her did she look down and softly reply,

"Okay~"

After a bit more tidying at home, there was no need to move any furniture since everything was already in the new house. They just needed to bring their daily necessities and Nainai's toys.

Two hours later, the family was ready, with bags and packages loaded into the car, heading to the new house.

Soon, they arrived at the new neighborhood: Xincheng Huayuan.

The car drove into the underground parking lot and parked. Gu Xingyi got out first to grab the luggage, while Xia Xiyao followed with little Nainai. The three of them went straight to the elevator.

It was Nainai's first time at the new place. She blinked her big eyes, full of curiosity.

Before long, they arrived at the 18th floor. Xia Xiyao led little Nainai out of the elevator, and Gu Xingyi followed with the luggage. They arrived at the door, where Xia Xiyao entered the updated password, and the door opened.

Entering the entryway, the two of them changed into slippers. Xia Xiyao then helped little Nainai put on her pretty pink slippers before they walked into the living room with the little one in tow.

The spacious and bright living room made little Nainai's eyes widen. Everything in this new home seemed so fresh and novel to her.

"Nainai, this is our new little home!"

Gu Xingyi put down his luggage and, together with Xia Xiyao, held the still somewhat shy Nainai's hand as they walked further in.

"Nainai, Papa and Mama will take you to see your little bedroom."

Nainai followed obediently, her face full of sweetness. But being in a new and unfamiliar place made her feel a little scared. That is, until Gu Xingyi gently opened the door to her bedroom, and her eyes immediately lit up.

What greeted her eyes was a world in soft pink.

The entire floor was covered in plush carpeting adorned with various cartoon characters.

In the middle of the room was a heart-shaped little princess bed, beside it a small pink cartoon sofa, and on the other side, a tiny bedside table with a small nightlight on top.

Little Nainai had never seen such a beautiful bedroom. It looked just like the princess's room in the fairy tales Papa told her.

Gu Xingyi gently picked up Nainai and carefully placed her on her little bed. The soft mattress sank a little under her weight.

When they chose this house, the most important thing for both of them was this little bedroom. It was clear that Nainai really liked it, as her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Gu Xingyi lovingly ruffled Nainai's hair.

"Nainai, do you like this little bedroom?"

Nainai gently pressed her palm down on the soft bed beneath her, her big eyes turning into crescent moons.

"Papa, is this really Nainai's little bedroom?"

"Yes!"

Gu Xingyi smiled and nodded.

"Nainai really likes it!"

Hearing Gu Xingyi's confirmation, Nainai beamed with a brilliant smile. She lay down on the soft bed, rolling from side to side as if trying to fill her new room with her energy.

At that moment, both Gu Xingyi and Xia Xiyao smiled in contentment. Seeing their little one happy was more important than anything!

The family spent their first evening in the new home, enjoying their first dinner together with laughter.

When it was time for Xiao Nainai to sleep, as usual, Gu Xingyi and Xia Xiyao sat on either side of her. Gu Xingyi was telling her a fairy tale, and soon, Xiao Nainai drifted off to sleep, her little face peaceful in the story's embrace.

Once they confirmed that Xiao Nainai was sound asleep, the two of them quietly turned off the lights and left the little bedroom.

Back in the master bedroom, the atmosphere between the two of them immediately became a bit tense with only the two of them there.

"I'll go take a shower first."

Gu Xingyi broke the silence, taking a deep breath before hurriedly heading to the bathroom.

This made Xia Xiyao laugh softly. She sat on the bed, turned on the bedside lamp, and switched off the chandelier above. The warm orange glow from the lamp illuminated her face, which was already tinged with pink.

When Gu Xingyi came out of the bathroom, he saw Xia Xiyao with her head down, holding her pajamas. She didn't even glance at him but hurriedly rushed past him and into the bathroom.

The sound of water in the bathroom began once again, clear and distinct in the otherwise silent room.

Gu Xingyi sat on the bed, feeling his heartbeat unusually strong and loud, thudding in his chest.

Tonight, there was no Xiao Nainai.
