Forever Unchanged

Zuo Yi and Gu Yunxi returned home hand in hand.

Gu Yunxi's smile had not faded the entire way. Though she was nearly thirty, she skipped along like a young girl newly in love, her eyes brimming with happiness and sweetness.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The moment the two entered the courtyard, applause suddenly rang out.

Fang Yonghe, Gu Kai, Zhang Yun, Shang Yulin, Liang Xuemei, Wang Jiaojiao and Wang Yongqiang, along with Wu Yongjian, Lu Guang, Qin Qin, Chen Wan, and others all stood up, smiling as they applauded the pair.

The three girls hid behind the crowd, peeking out and giggling.

They had clearly already told everyone that Zuo Yi had proposed to Gu Yunxi.

Chen Wan stepped forward and opened her arms, giving Gu Yunxi a big hug. "Xixi, congratulations."

She was sincerely happy for her best friend. "You must be happy!"

"Thank you!"

Gu Yunxi hugged her tightly in return. Thinking back on everything she had been through over the past few years, her eyes welled up with tears again.

After Chen Wan released Gu Yunxi, Zhang Yun came over and took her daughter's hand, leading her aside to speak quietly.

Fang Yonghe asked Zuo Yi with a smile, "When are you planning to get married?"

She had always hoped that Zuo Yi would settle down and give Bao'er a real home.

Now, her wish had finally come true.

Zuo Yi felt a little embarrassed. "We haven't decided yet. How about you help us set a date, Auntie?"

Fang Yonghe immediately took the matter to heart. "Then I'll discuss it with the in-laws."

Naturally, Zuo Yi had no objection. "I'll have to trouble you, Auntie."

Fang Yonghe reproached him fondly. "What trouble is that!"

Her marriage had been unhappy, and she had no children of her own.
