“Cheers!” Yun Shishi raised her glass and smiled, her face slightly flushed. Obviously she was getting tipsy. She smiled at Chu He and Gu Jinglian. “Is this considered a make-up honeymoon? If so, make sure you enjoy yourself.”

Gu Jinglian smiled and exchanged a glance with Chu He. He raised his hand and flexed his wrist in a suave manner and the goblet in his hand clinked gently against hers.

Mu Yazhe and Hua Jin raised their glasses as well. With a few clinks, several goblets made contact elegantly.

For some reason, with Gu Jinglian’s arrogant personality, he would never have put down his pride and taken his drink sitting down. But Yun Shishi had walked over to him and said something to him that made him smile for some reason. Then they sat down and drank together. Hua Jin secretly sighed with emotion, marveling at the woman’s ability to endear people to herself.

Unconsciously, the night passed.

Gu Linxi headed off to bed with Baby Chu in his arms, while Natalia and Yueyao grew tired. Little Yichen carried his little sister back to bed, while Youyou and Natalia returned to the villa early.

The entire beach seemed to have fallen silent, save for the sound of the sea breeze.

One could not help but be soothed by the sound of the waves crashing against the shore and the feel of the gentle sea breeze against the skin.

“I haven’t enjoyed myself so much in ages!” Yun Shishi exclaimed.

Chu He was puzzled to hear this from her. “You’re no longer filming. You should have plenty of time to take a vacation.”

“How would that be possible?” Yun Shishi gave her a resigned look. “Yueyao is still young. We can’t bear to leave her alone to go on a vacation. We’ll be worried. Now that she’s a little older, we worry whether she’d be able to adapt if we traveled too far. Children her age tend to be delicate.”

Chu He half-joked at that. “Most kids are posh these days. We never had it so good back then, when we were kids.”

“Yeah.”

Chu He’s past came back to her. “I remember when I was a child. At that time, I was born into a time of war and civil unrest. The streets were full of marching protests and many of the military forces were exchanging fire. I remember trying to fill my stomach. Hiding from those people, I had to look for bread among the mud to eat. Some of the bread was spoiled, but to fill my stomach, I couldn’t care less. Even when I ate like this, I didn’t get sick. A child today wouldn’t be able to survive it.”

Yun Shishi was not impressed though. “Well, that just goes to show that you have a good constitution. Everyone’s constitution is different. In fact, many children died in those days because of malnutrition or a bad environment. Just that people don’t know about it. It’s happening less nowadays because conditions are better. But the children in the impoverished regions are still struggling to get enough to eat.”

As a result, Yun Shishi had cut back the volume of work after her marriage to place more focus on charity work. She remembered taking part in a charity event once and learning that 1500 yuan would fund a poor student’s living expenses and tuition fees for a year. She then promptly sponsored three thousand poor students.

Many reporters thought that she was being hypocritical and was trying to raise the reputation of the Shengyu Group by doing that. But in fact, this was what Yun Shishi really thought.

The five of them chatted as they enjoyed the sea breeze.
