If Ke Yongxin showed up as scheduled, everyone would be happy at the wedding. If he couldn't show up, Xiaoyu would let Ke's family and friends see her determination to be Mrs. Ke for life.

"Okay, happy Children's Day. Always keep a pure and happy childlike heart." Guo Jiawang nodded.

After completing the loan procedures at the bank, it was already time for lunch. Xiaoyu said she wanted to treat Guo Jiawang to a meal, and the man gladly accepted.

"Then I won't be polite. I want to eat at the most expensive restaurant in Shenzhen. You won't refuse, right?" Mr. Guo said.

"Of course, I would like to see what the most expensive restaurant in Shenzhen looks like." Xiaoyu said readily.

The two men came to the restaurant on the fourth floor of Shenzhen Hotel. Guo Jiawang whispered something to the front desk clerk, who immediately called a waiter and took them into the restaurant's dedicated elevator.

When the elevator door opened, they walked into a private room. After the two sat down at the table, a young and handsome chef walked in from another door. Then, the waiter who led them upstairs left the room and closed the door.

The chef nodded to the two of them and began to introduce the first dish he was going to make. Xiaoyu listened to him and looked around. It looked no different from the Michelin restaurants they had been to before.

When they were almost done eating, there was a sudden power outage, and the room was instantly dark. Before Xiaoyu could react, the room suddenly became bright again, brighter than before.

Xiaoyu looked up and saw that they seemed to be sitting in an open-air restaurant eating, with a round piece of blue sky above their heads.

"Are we having dinner on the rooftop?" Xiaoyu asked curiously.

"Yeah. Do you like it?" Guo Jiawang nodded slightly.

"It would be nice for the whole family to enjoy the moon here during the Mid-Autumn Festival." Xiaoyu said.

"That's great. If you saw a shooting star, what wish would you make?" Guo Jiawang asked.

"Of course we'll be able to see him soon." Xiaoyu said without hesitation.

"Your wish will definitely come true. Get ready. I'll count to nine, and then you can make a wish." As soon as Guo Jiawang finished speaking, the room darkened instantly. As soon as he said nine, a sky full of stars appeared above his head.

Accompanied by a sound like the whistling wind, a meteor streaked across the high and far sky, and Xiaoyu silently made her wish.

Then the room fell silent, with only the sizzling sound of beef on the iron plate and the aroma of food filling the room.

"Master, please go to the next room and rest for a while. We will call you when we need you." Guo Jiawang said.

After the chef left, the room became bright again and the blue sky reappeared overhead.

"Mr. Guo, do you often come here to eat?" Xiaoyu asked.

"How can I afford to come to such an expensive restaurant often?" Guo Jiawang said with a smile.

"Have you always been so low-key? Or are you deliberately keeping a low profile to test the people in our sales department?" Xiaoyu asked.

"I'm just an old man who lost his wife. Why should I keep a low profile? Unlike Mrs. Ke, who has a huge fortune but still works part-time, she is so patient and loving to a humble old man like me." Guo Jiawang said.

"Mr. Guo, you are really embarrassing me by saying this. I would like to ask for your guidance." Xiaoyu said sincerely.

"Mr. Ke is a very good second-generation entrepreneur. Besides, he has such a good wife waiting for him at home. I believe he will definitely come back." Guo Jiawang said.

"How does Mr. Guo know him? Why is he so sure that he will come back?" Xiaoyu asked.

"It's my sixth sense. He still has responsibilities and missions to complete, so he will come back naturally. If you marry a workaholic, waiting may become a part of your life." Guo Jiawang said.

"Has Mr. Guo ever made his wife wait like this?" Xiaoyu asked.

"Yes. The night before my wife's 40th birthday, something unexpected happened at the company. I flew to the branch office overnight and immersed myself in work. I actually forgot to celebrate her birthday with her."

"I left my phone at home, and I left without even saying hello to her. She was really worried. On the third day, when she saw me returning safely, she hugged me and cried without a word of blame."

Listening to Guo Jiawang's words, Xiaoyu smiled faintly. No matter whether the story was true or false, as long as she could see hope from the story, she was willing to believe it was true.

"Because I was extremely wrong, you definitely don't believe it, right? When Mr. Ke comes back, I will have a good talk with him. Don't wait until you are like this now, when it is too late to regret." Guo Jiawang said again.

"Thank you, Mr. Guo. I will learn from your wife and prepare to welcome him back happily." Xiaoyu asked.

"That's right. There are no obstacles in life that cannot be overcome. I will attend your wedding as a member of your family and will definitely make your wedding a glorious one." Mr. Guo said.

"Last time I heard you tell me about your grandmother, I really like her. She lived a very transparent life. Why don't you tell her that I will recognize her as your godmother. Then I will be your uncle, and the people in the Ke family will not dare to look down on you."

Xiaoyu glanced at Guo Jiawang and didn't respond. She really couldn't figure out the train of thought of this big shot. Others like to climb up, why does he like to settle for someone lower?

"Your grandmother has no son, and I happen to have no mother either. It's not a loss for you to be my niece, right?" He added when he saw Xiaoyu didn't answer.

"Okay, I'll talk to grandma when she comes over and see if she's willing." Xiaoyu said, thinking he was joking.

Led by the waiter, the two went downstairs to pay the bill, which was one yuan short of ten thousand yuan. This was the most expensive meal Xiaoyu had eaten in the past twenty years.

"You have eaten all nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine. You will definitely have a long and happy life in the future. Niece, see you on Children's Day." Guo Jiawang said before leaving.

In the evening, when Xiaoyu and her sister took Duoduo to their father's house, they saw that the table was already set and the aroma of food was wafting in. However, Ye Meixia was still busy in the kitchen.

"Xiao Jin, Xiao Yu is here? You can talk to daddy. There is also a soup. Dinner will be served in ten minutes." Ye Meixia said enthusiastically.

"Auntie, thank you for your hard work. Can I help?" Xiaoyu put her daughter in her father's arms and walked into the kitchen and asked.

"No need, go out quickly, there is a lot of smoke in the kitchen." Ye Meixia said with a smile.

Xiaoyu stopped being polite with her and sat on the sofa to chat with her father.

"Dad, you're the one who takes care of her when we're not around, right?" Xiaoyu whispered in Xia Xinguo's ear.

"No, I have to go to work. Your aunt does more." Xia Xinguo said.

"Really, your aunt cares about me a lot. I feel that she really treats me well. You can rest assured about this." Seeing that his two daughters didn't quite believe it, Xia Xinguo added.
