The slender man wore a pristine white suit, showcasing a nobility that others couldn’t replicate, embodying the demeanor of a steadfast pine. Just by standing there, he exuded a natural presence akin to a gentle breeze and bright moon, his refined nobility causing one’s breath to catch.

Feng Ciye’s expression was indifferent, suppressing a trace of bitterness within, his eyes tinged with red at the corners. His gaze, cold and silent, looked over the meticulously arranged engagement party scene, lowering his eyes and showing a reserved composure.

Beside him, Ling Chenyu was still noisily marveling at the splendor of the engagement party: "This engagement party is truly amazing, just look at that decoration. I thought given such a short time to schedule a date, the preparations wouldn’t be impressive, but this engagement party is no less than the ones in An City. It seems Mr. Qi really put his heart into it!"

Ling Chenyu chattered away, occasionally stealing glances at Feng Ciye’s expression.

Feng Ciye: "Are you done talking?"

Ling Chenyu saw his face turn cold, feeling a bit sheepish: "I..."

"There are no more ties between us. Don’t go in with me," Feng Ciye said coldly and indifferently.

With no engagement, Feng Ciye couldn’t even maintain a hint of warmth in his facade, unwilling to spare her a glance.

Ling Chenyu watched as the small dark red shadow walked towards them, her lips gradually blooming into a meaningful smile, saying, "Then I’ll head in first, Brother Ciye."

The child is already here. Though she was puzzled about how the child grew so big, it couldn’t be mistaken.

Ling Chenyu’s gaze fixed inside the engagement party, her dark pupils bursting with strong determination—this engagement party must succeed tonight! If anyone dares to spoil this engagement party, as the young lady of the Ling Family, she’ll oppose them!

With high heels clicking, Ling Chenyu arrogantly strutted into the engagement party, her powerful presence drawing frequent sidelong glances from the surrounding guests.

A trace of disgust surfaced in Feng Ciye’s eyes; even without an engagement with Ling Chenyu, she insisted on clinging to him.

Apart from Ling Chenyu’s spoiled stubbornness, she was actually not bad. But... in the darkness of life, only one ray of light appears—even if it’s as faint as a firefly, nothing else will become salvation.

Feng Ciye sighed at the thought, listening to the sounds of merriment from the engagement party, as if the summer night’s heat could permeate through, yet he felt cold, as if in an icehouse.

At that moment, Feng Ciye noticed someone lightly tugging at the corner of his coat.

He lowered his gaze and his breath momentarily stopped.

Before him appeared a soft, pink little Tuanzi, her rosy cheeks slightly flushed, with eyes as clear as black grape springs, looking at him doe-eyed.

"Do you have something to say to me?" Feng Ciye recalled the child’s unique gaze when he bumped into him a few days back, now seeing him holding onto his coat, he had some guesses. He squatted down and asked warmly.

Tuanzi, seeing Feng Ciye so perceptive, nodded her little head like a chick pecking rice, "Yes, yes!"

Feng Ciye pondered for a moment, leading Tuanzi to a dark corner by the window, his voice tender: "Go ahead."

Tuanzi’s eyes sparkled, and she immediately opened her mouth.
