Chapter 163: Kiss Scene Action Director - Niansui An

Chapter 163

Nian Suian watched as Gu Junxing sat motionless and asked him, "The sunrise... are we just going to watch it like this?"

"Hmm, did you have something else in mind?" Gu Junxing thought that sitting quietly together watching the sunrise was perfect - peaceful and blissful.

Nian Suian, never one to mince words, blurted out, "Kiss me."

This caught even Gu Junxing off guard.

Nian Suian sat up straight and declared matter-of-factly, "Isn't that what they always do on TV?"

Gu Junxing couldn't help but smile at her boldness. He gazed into her eyes and slowly leaned in.

"Wait," Nian Suian said, pressing her hand against his shoulder. "Kissing while sitting like this is awkward."

"Oh?"

"Think about it. We're sitting on these tiny stools, so we'd have to crane our necks and stick our butts out. That's such an unattractive pose. I refuse."

Gu Junxing didn't argue, but simply asked, "Then please enlighten me, Miss Nian. What position would be better?"

Nian Suian blinked, then turned back to face the sun, casually pouring herself a cup of chrysanthemum tea.

"I don't feel like kissing anymore. Maybe later."

The couple sat on the mountaintop for an hour, until sunlight bathed the entire landscape. Only then did they prepare to head back.

Nian Suian stood up, watching as Gu Junxing packed up the chairs and handed her the two thermoses.

Where they had parked, there was a tall tree with many branches. In winter, all its leaves had fallen, and the sunlight filtering through the bare branches cast irregular patterns on the ground.

Nian Suian stood in the largest patch of light. "Gu Junxing, come here."

"What is it?" Gu Junxing asked, puzzled, as he closed the trunk and walked over.

"Stand in this patch of sunlight." Nian Suian stepped back, making room for him.

Though he didn't know what she had in mind, Gu Junxing obediently complied.

She stood on her tiptoes, wrapped her arms around his neck, and pressed her lips to his.

Yes, this was her ideal kissing scene.

Yan Hexu greeted them with a smile and led them inside.

"Dad, guess who's here to see you?"

Hearing Yan Hexu's cheerful voice, Nian Suian recalled her previous complaints about her father. She realized her own thoughts had been far too simplistic - children from families like this rarely had uncomplicated feelings.

Yan Zhensheng looked up at the words, and the three visitors stepped forward to greet him with smiles.

"Mr. Gu! What a rare guest. Please, sit down." Yan Zhensheng was genuinely pleased to see Gu Junxing.

Nian Suian glanced at Yan Zhensheng and was shocked.

The man in the hospital bed was a far cry from the one she had met before.

Not only had he lost a lot of weight, but his once ruddy complexion had vanished. His overall appearance had darkened, and his hair seemed to have turned whiter. Clearly, the incident with Yan Heyu had taken a heavy toll on him.

"I met your wife last time, Mr. Gu. And this young man behind you... must be your son?"

Receiving an affirmative answer, Yan Zhensheng smiled at Gu Zhijing. "What a fine boy. You're blessed, Mr. Gu."

He chuckled, but then his expression changed as something crossed his mind.

"Ah, these useless children of mine. None of them have given me a grandchild yet. I'm afraid I might die without ever seeing the third generation."

"Dad, what are you saying? Why talk about dying? You're deliberately upsetting me." Yan Hexu immediately stepped forward, her eyes welling up with tears.

Nian Suian was impressed by the performance!

Gu Junxing also tried to console him: "Come now, Mr. Yan. You have both sons and daughters. I'm sure you'll have grandchildren soon enough. I bet you'll even see them get married!"

Yan Zhensheng waved his hand dismissively, now behaving like a typical parent complaining about their children not finding partners.

"Look at you, several years younger than Heguang, with a son this big already. He's over forty and still not married. He's set a bad example, and now his younger brother and sister aren't looking for partners either."

Nian Suian thought to herself, "But your youngest son does have a partner..."

Yan Zhensheng had a concern he hadn't voiced to anyone. After the incident with Yan Heyu, he had started to worry if there was something wrong with their family genes. Especially since his eldest son and daughter were getting on in years without showing any interest in marriage. He feared all three might have unconventional orientations, leaving him without descendants despite having both sons and daughters.

Yan Zhensheng couldn't bear to entertain the thought, trying to squash it as soon as it arose. Otherwise, he felt he might as well die right then and there.

Hearing her father's words, Yan Hexu said with teary eyes, "Dad, you need to get well soon so you can help find a good match for big brother." Yan Hexu privately agreed that her brother should find a partner soon, lest Yan Heyu end up giving their father a grandchild first, leaving her older brother behind.

Yan Zhensheng snorted at his daughter's words. "Don't just talk about your brother. You should be thinking about your own situation too!"
