The entire family stared at Gu Zi, awaiting her decision. They didn’t say a word, but their expectant gazes spoke volumes.

Gu Zi, feeling slightly intimidated by the weight of their collective attention, was on the verge of blurting out that she hadn’t even considered hosting a graduation party.

But now, of course, she couldn’t say that. These were people who genuinely cared about her. It wouldn’t hurt to indulge them a little. After all, she didn’t need to worry about the small details—those were usually taken care of for her.

She glanced over at Jin Long, whose earnest eyes met hers, and suddenly her thoughts drifted to her old friend, Gong Xin. She turned to Su Shen and said, “Golden Sun Hotel is indeed a good choice. Let’s go with that.”

Then, addressing the children, she added, “Alright, we’ve settled that. Su Bing, Su Li, you two should go to bed. You still have school tomorrow, don’t you?”

The boys, nearing the end of their school year, were both stressed with the looming final exams. Gu Zi was usually lenient with them, but she insisted they get enough rest to stay sharp. They dutifully nodded and trooped upstairs, leaving the adults to continue their discussion.

After hashing out the remaining details, the group dispersed.

As Gu Zi closed the gate behind them, she noticed Huang Fei walking home on the opposite side of the street. Huang Fei didn’t approach to greet her, which suited Gu Zi just fine.

But she found herself puzzled—was it really already past ten? Was Huang Fei only now returning? She had heard that Huang Fei’s maid had stopped coming recently. Wasn’t it strange that her son would have to fend for himself now?

Gu Zi didn’t dwell on it, reminding herself that it wasn’t her concern. With a shrug, she closed the gate and headed inside.

Meanwhile, Huang Fei had arrived home to find Xu Sheng sitting in the living room, munching on bread. The bread was typically reserved for breakfast, or occasionally a quick snack, but tonight, it was his main meal.

Huang Fei’s heart sank as she watched him eat. After all, he was her son, and yet, with all the time she’d been spending accompanying her husband on social engagements, she had little time to take care of the household.

It wasn’t that her husband demanded her presence at these events, but Huang Fei could never fully trust him alone at such occasions. She knew all too well how women in the social scene could latch onto a vulnerable man. She couldn’t allow herself to become one of those wives who turned a blind eye to their husbands’ extramarital affairs. If she had wanted a life like that, she wouldn’t have left the capital’s comforts behind to move to the provincial city of Guangcheng.

It was clear she had cried, her makeup was slightly messed up, with a subtle smoky look.

Her elegant aura was accompanied by a touch of decadence, giving her a unique beauty.

Back in the car, Liu Muxue’s expression calmed down, then she said, “Axing, take me back to the hotel.”

“Okay.”

Cao Xing nodded.

Just as he was about to start the car, everything suddenly went black.

Then, everyone heard a synthesized mechanical voice by their ears.

“The new version update of ‘Ice Seal Age’ is complete, officially opening the era of public testing. In a minute, all humans on Blue Star will enter this game.”

“Game instructions: This is a world where the sun does not shine. It is vast and boundless, but shrouded in cold all day. Your task is to survive in this world.”

“Once the game begins, you’ll appear next to a bonfire, your flame of survival. Remember! Do not leave the space illuminated by the firelight easily!”

Mrs. Sun’s expression turned serious as she replied, “It was Huang Fei—the one who visited us last time. You remember her, don’t you? She may not have much to offer, but her in-laws are influential people in the capital. Of course, I had to take the call. It’s nothing urgent. She just needs help finding a maid. If we can assist her, we should. By the way, I remember you know a girl named Lin Miao, a rural student, right? Do you think she could help with this?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Qi became more attentive. “Oh, Lin Miao? She’s not really a rural girl anymore. Her parents are from the prestigious Gu family. Gu Shan even had Father help reduce her sentence. Since we’ve done so much for her, it’s only right to ask her for this small favor. Mom, leave this to me—I’ll take care of it.”

Without delay, Sun Qi called the Gu family that evening, and Zhang Mei answered the phone. Upon hearing that it was the Sun family’s young lady, Zhang Mei immediately began flattering her, eager to please.

Sun Qi was clearly pleased with the attention, and once the pleasantries were over, Zhang Mei handed the phone to Lin Miao. “Miao Miao, speak with Miss Sun,” she instructed loudly, making sure Gu Shan could hear her. She wanted him to know how impressive her daughter was for making connections with the Sun family.

Gu Shan, overhearing, felt a sense of pride—if Lin Miao could maintain ties with such influential people, she must be someone of substance.
