Gu Ningxuan had been drifting alone for more than five years in a place that was both familiar and strange, with a constant feeling of unease and insecurity in his heart. Yet in that moment, a simple phrase—"It's good you're back"—dispelled the panic he had felt for many years.

Gu Molin watched through the virtual screen, looking somewhat greedily and dreamily at this great-grandson who was taller and stronger than in his memory.
He could see that the youthful innocence the other once had had long disappeared, leaving only the demeanor that a man of the Gu Family should possess... After many years apart, that slightly immature great-grandson had quietly transformed into a real man, becoming a father capable of taking on responsibility.
