The reporter quickly agreed.

After she finished explaining things.

Gu Xin looked at the time and left work early. She was ready to go back to spend the new year with her father.

Just as she walked downstairs of the television station, she received a call from Zhai Yi. “Xiao Xin, do you have an appointment today?”

“I just...”Gu Xin remembered what Lu man had said and endured it. “No, I’m playing chess with my dad at home.”

“Is it convenient for us to have dinner together tonight? It’s the New Year today. I’ll send you home after we finish eating. It Won’t take too long for you and your dad to reunite,”Zhai Yi said, his voice became gentler. “From the moment we confirmed our relationship until now, we’ve been eating together every year during the New Year. I don’t want to break this tradition. I even hope that this will be the case every year in the future.”

Gu Xin felt a warmth in her heart.

In the past, Zhai Yi would also treat her very well, but he would not say too many such heartwarming words.

“Okay, then come pick me up at the Villa Tonight.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up, Gu Xin took a car home.

At home, her father was probably waiting for her. He leaned on the sofa and fell asleep.

She turned her head to look at the chess game that they had put down halfway. At that moment, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

This old man was alone every day. He must be feeling very lonely. Yet, she did not know the immensity of Heaven and earth. She always made him angry.

She quietly asked the maid to bring a thin sheet to cover her father.

Although the house was warm enough, it was easy to catch a cold after sleeping for a long time.

Just as she put the blanket on her father, Gu Zhengying opened his eyes and looked at his daughter. His voice was hoarse from waking up. “You’re back?”

“Dad.”Gu Xin suddenly sounded a little serious.

Gu Zhengying looked at her. “Did you feel wronged when you went out just now?”

“No.”Gu Xin felt even worse.

Every time she was unhappy or had any emotions, her father always thought that she was being bullied.

However, he never thought that she would worry about everything about him.

She said, “Haven’t you ever thought about marrying a second wife?”Gu Xin asked him.

Gu Zhengying was stunned for a moment and patted his daughter’s head lovingly. “You’re already so old. Who would still think about this?”

“Then when you were young and when mom died, didn’t you think about it?”

“I didn’t think about it.”Gu Zhengying sat up from the sofa and said with a sigh, “Dad thinks that having you is enough.”

“But I have to get married eventually! I Can’t stay with you forever. Why did you waste your life on me!”Gu Xin pouted and complained.

“Who said I’m wasting my life? I’m very happy!”Gu Zhengying was very serious. “I just think that my daughter is the best.”

”...”Gu Xin felt that her father was very mushy.

She wrinkled her nose. “Now, you think that your best daughter wants to tell you something serious. After the New Year, go on a blind date with me. I Won’t get married if I don’t get married to you!”

“Little Xin...”

“I’m not joking with you,”Gu Xin was very serious. She added, “It’s best if you can give me a younger brother or sister...”

Gu Zhengying’s face was red, but Gu Xin was still serious.

“It’s settled then. Zhai Yi and I will go out for dinner tonight. Now, let’s finish the second half of the game. By the way, you didn’t change the game, did you?”

“Is your father such a dishonest person?”

“No, I have to compare...”Gu Xin argued.

With Gu Xin at home, she would never be lonely.
