Chapter 1236: Gong Xin Gets Engaged

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the summer holidays approached, Gu Zi found herself pressed for time. Her coursework had intensified dramatically—by choice.

Determined to fast-track her degree, she had enrolled in a compact schedule that left barely a moment to breathe. There would be no idyllic summer trip back to Guangcheng with the children this year.

Education came first. She was cramming four years’ worth of university knowledge into what felt like a single, caffeine-fueled sprint.

The goal? Graduate early and reclaim her time. She had no desire to linger on campus longer than absolutely necessary.

Meanwhile, Su Bing had entered the sixth grade, and the transformation was undeniable. He had shot up in height, his lanky frame evolving into that of a pre-teen on the cusp of adolescence. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Already, he looked like a small adult. With his current growth spurt, it was almost certain he’d surpass six feet by eighteen—tall, sharp-featured, and effortlessly handsome. That much was written in the stars.

This year was a pivotal one. Su Bing would be sitting for his middle school entrance exams, and the family agreed—after much deliberation—that staying in the capital was the smarter move.

The education system in Beijing simply offered better opportunities, broader horizons. Uprooting themselves to return to Guangcheng now would be chaotic and counterproductive.

So Gu Zi made the call: they were staying put.

She had just finished a set of practice questions when her phone rang. It was a call from Guangcheng. On the other end, a bright, mischievous voice chirped through the receiver.

"Gu Zi! Jin Long and I got engaged today! Thank you so much for the gifts your brother and sister-in-law brought on your behalf. I’ve already sent a return gift, and a few little surprises for the kids—especially for Teddy! Next time, you must come back and let his godmother dote on him properly!"

Gu Zi beamed. "Of course! I’ll definitely come back for the wedding. Teddy will be expecting a gift, mind you—he has no shame when it comes to asking. So... when is the big day?"

She wasn’t trying to push or pry—it was pure curiosity. Everyone knew that Gong Xin and Jin Long were madly in love. The families had already met and approved. Commander Gong and Madam Chen were more than satisfied with their future son-in-law. So why stop at an engagement?

Gong Xin sighed and replied, "That’s exactly why I called. I’ve decided I want to establish my career first. Jin Long supports me completely. I recently received an offer from Guangcheng Television—they want me to join their new international news channel as a bilingual host. But... they also require me to cut my hair short. And you know how I feel about that."
