Teddy’s chubby legs and arms were irresistibly plump, his cheeks adorably round with baby fat.
Every step he took was a little wobbly—his tiny bottom wiggling as he struggled to keep balance, his pudgy little feet barely steady on the ground. Clenching his pink, dimpled fists, he fought hard to stay upright.
Just as he was about to tumble, Su Shen stepped forward swiftly and scooped him into his arms.
The little guy babbled cheerfully, kicking his legs with determination, clearly wanting to get down and walk on his own. That stubborn little expression in his eyes was so endearing it made Gu Zi laugh.
She teased him lightly, then turned to Su Shen. "I talked to my sister-in-law on the phone yesterday. She said all three of her stores are running smoothly now, she’s hired more staff, and Mom has some free time. I’m thinking of sending Teddy back to her for a while, so he can have company with her little one. Once I graduate, I’ll bring him back to raise myself."
Su Shen nodded approvingly. It was a good plan. This way, Gu Zi would have more time for herself. "Teddy is a boy after all. He doesn’t need to be coddled or carried everywhere. Once you graduate, we’ll go get him together."
Gu Zi smiled and said, "I’ll call my sister-in-law later today. When you go for your inspection trip, you can take Teddy with you and leave him there. After I graduate, I’ll find a lighter job so I can take him back."
The couple reached an understanding. On the day Su Shen set off for his inspection, he took Teddy back to Guangcheng with him. When their three older children returned home from school and didn’t see their adorable little brother, they immediately asked Gu Zi.
She explained patiently, "I need to focus on my studies right now, so Dad has taken Teddy to Grandma’s for a while. But it won’t be for long. We’ll bring him back soon."
Hearing this, the older kids finally relaxed.
Meanwhile, Teddy, nestled safely in Su Shen’s arms on the train, slowly sensed something was amiss. His wide eyes darted around, taking in unfamiliar sights. His small mouth puckered into a pout as he tugged at his father’s collar, pointing and babbling in confusion—why was it just him and Daddy now?

One of the best novels. A different touch, a change in usual billionaire's stories filled with cruelty and betrayals. Thank you author....
