Chapter 110 Rival in Love Appears (1)
"Yanyi." Qin Jiran suddenly called out to Su Yanyi, holding her hand. Su Yanyi looked at him in confusion, waiting for him to speak.
"Thank you." Qin Jiran said seriously, truly grateful for Su Yanyi’s protection. Always relying on himself for everything, he had rarely felt this sense of being protected—intimate, warm, and deeply moving.
He had fallen in love with Su Yanyi a long time ago, so deeply that he thought his love couldn’t be described or deepened. But with their recent interactions, discovering her adorableness, her tenderness beneath her domineering demeanor, and that warm protection, Jiran felt his love for this woman growing even stronger.
He squeezed Su Yanyi’s hand back, with a firmness that was gentle and not enough to hurt. This too was a part of Qin Jiran’s tenderness and affection.
"I thought that between us, thanks were no longer needed." If thanks were indeed necessary, how many times should she have thanked him in their past life? His gentle and meticulous care, his unwavering devotion—she would have much more to thank him for.
Qin Jiran smiled, his eyes brimming with amusement as he gripped Su Yanyi’s hand even tighter.
The two returned to Old Master Su’s side, who then picked up the microphone to begin his opening speech.
"I’m very thankful for everyone’s attendance at this old man’s birthday banquet. I’ve grown another year older. Now, with three generations under one roof in the Su family, things are running smoothly. The only regret is we don’t have any children yet. Yanmo, Yanyi, Jiran, you all must work hard. Next year at this time, this old man is very much looking forward to the Su family welcoming a new addition," Old Master Su said with a twinkle in his eye, putting pressure on the younger generation.
