Chapter 1083: The Loneliest Person

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was a regular workday, and naturally, Gu Zi had assumed Gong Xin would be tied up at the office, too busy to make it to the station. That was why she hadn’t informed her about the departure plans—no point in disrupting her day. But to her surprise, Gong Xin showed up anyway.

One glance, and Gu Zi knew exactly how she’d found out: Jin Long must have told her. The way things were going between those two, it looked like progress was finally being made.

A smile played on Gu Zi’s lips, and in a half-teasing tone laced with mischief, she said, "Heartless? Just wait—you’ll be thanking me soon enough."

Jin Long, for all his wealth and capability, was a man of genuine thoughtfulness. He had money, sure, and he wasn’t lacking in competence either. He knew how to prioritize, had a good head on his shoulders, and whoever ended up marrying him in the future certainly wouldn’t be living a hard life.

That said, when it came to matters of love, Jin Long was surprisingly... untouched. Pure, even. His romantic track record was practically nonexistent. If it weren’t for Gu Zi gently nudging him along, giving him subtle hints, he might still be stuck in place, too shy or too oblivious to act on his feelings for Gong Xin.

So really, Gu Zi thought with some amusement, it wasn’t an exaggeration to call herself the matchmaker of the hour. She never fancied herself the meddling type, rarely interested in arranging other people’s relationships, but for Jin Long—who respected her deeply—and Gong Xin—who cared for her so sincerely—how could she just stand by and let the opportunity slip away?

Of course, Gong Xin didn’t quite catch the meaning behind her cryptic remark. She was too focused on the send-off, too caught up in chatting with Gu Zi before the train whisked her away. She clung to her arm and said with faux seriousness, "Forget being grateful or not—Gu Zi, you remember this: even if you’re heading to the capital and we’re not together anymore, your bestie title still belongs to me. Got it?"

Meanwhile, Su Shen stood off to the side, noticeably less surrounded. He didn’t have many relatives to send him off. Standing next to Gu Zi, who was practically being smothered by friends and well-wishers, only made his own loneliness stand out more.

Jin Long had come, of course—but once he caught sight of Gong Xin, all his attention immediately shifted to her. He barely exchanged a few words with Su Shen before dashing over to Gong Xin like a man on a mission. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Su Shen wasn’t bothered. When it came to choosing romance over friendship, he was no better than Jin Long. He wasn’t in a position to judge.

But the kids—bless them—noticed. They all thought their dad looked kind of pitiful. They whispered among themselves that if it weren’t for trying to impress Gong Xin, Uncle Jin Long probably wouldn’t have come at all.

With that heartbreaking theory in mind, they each reached out to hold Su Shen’s hand in unison, silently offering comfort.

Elsewhere, the Gao family had arrived. Little Gao Ming, spotting Su Li standing next to Su Shen, hurried to stand beside him. Their hands found each other like magnets, and just like that, Gao Ming inserted himself into the Su family lineup—leaving his poor father, Gao Lang, looking terribly forlorn, standing off to the side like a forgotten extra in someone else’s farewell scene. Truly, he was the loneliest person there.

As for Gao Lang’s wife, their youngest son, Grandpa Gao, and Grandma Gao—they had already left by car.
