Love is as vast as the Milky Way, impossible to cross.

Chapter 290 Everything seemed so beautiful and heartwarming

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Uncle Xu."

Huo Muchen led Liu Shiyin into the restaurant's private room, and after opening the door, he politely apologized to Xu Zhiyuan.

"Not at all, I just arrived recently."

Upon seeing this, Xu Zhiyuan quickly stood up and stepped forward to greet him, responding with a smile. However, when he approached and saw Liu Shiyin behind Huo Muchen, he stumbled and almost lost his balance.

"Are you alright?"

Liu Shiyin quickly helped him up.

"I'm fine, thank you,"

Looking at the kind and sensible Liu Shiyin, Xu Zhiyuan's face showed a long-lost gentle smile. He reached out and gently patted Liu Shiyin's arm, and whispered,

"Come on, sit down."

Xu Zhiyuan greeted Liu Shiyin and Huo Muchen.

"Try this, it's pretty good too,"

At the dining table, Xu Zhiyuan kept introducing various foods to Liu Shiyin.

Although Huo Muchen usually took good care of Liu Shiyin, knowing that he was her father and everything he had done made Liu Shiyin feel a different kind of emotion.

She felt Xu Zhiyuan's care and warmth towards her, the kind of warmth that comes from elders and the affection between relatives.

She looked at Huo Muchen and found him looking at her too, his eyes full of encouragement and comfort. Liu Shiyin smiled back and began to savor the food on the table.

Everything seemed so beautiful and warm.

"Uncle, I'll be leaving for a bit. I need to take care of an overseas call. You guys eat first."

Huo Muchen stood up and gently kissed Liu Shiyin on the cheek.

"I'll be right back."

Huo Muchen stroked Liu Shiyin's back and whispered in her ear,

After seeing Liu Shiyin nod, Huo Muchen answered the phone, talking as he walked outside.

"How does young Mr. Huo treat you?"

Liu Shiyin, who had been staring at Huo Muchen, turned around immediately upon hearing Xu Zhiyuan's voice.

"He was very good to me, very tolerant of me, and very respectful of me,"

A sweet smile graced her face, and when she spoke of Huo Muchen, the happiness and contentment seemed to overflow from her eyes.

Xu Zhiyuan felt very gratified to see Liu Shiyin's reaction.

He had only ever heard rumors about how cold and ruthless Huo Muchen was towards women, but seeing Liu Shiyin's current state, he knew that Liu Shiyin held a truly special place in Huo Muchen's heart.

"Everyone has their own happiness and destiny. Perhaps Mr. Huo is your final haven. I hope you two can be together forever, loving each other dearly."

Xu Zhiyuan looked at Liu Shiyin and smiled as he spoke.

Xu Zhiyuan's words brought a pang of sadness to Liu Shiyin's heart. Her mother, when she was alive, often said...

"My darling is so beautiful and well-behaved. She will definitely find a very, very good person who will love and cherish her for the rest of her life."

Thinking of this, Liu Shiyin's eyes involuntarily reddened. She quickly steadied herself.

"Thank you... Uncle Xu,"

Liu Shiyin looked up at Xu Zhiyuan and said softly.

Looking at Liu Shiyin's face, Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help but think of her mother, Liu Qin.

"What are you talking about?"

Huo Muchen, who had just entered, saw Liu Shiyin's displeased expression and asked,

Huo Muchen's voice instantly brought Xu Zhiyuan back to his senses, and he quickly looked away from Liu Shiyin's face.

"We didn't talk about much, just that you and Miss Liu are a good match. It's clear that Miss Liu is a gentle and kind girl, Mr. Huo should cherish her."

Huo Muchen smiled slightly upon hearing Xu Zhiyuan's words.

"That's natural,"

He picked up the water glass in front of him, took a sip, then put the glass down and draped Liu Shiyin's coat over her shoulders.

"It's getting late, we should head back now. Uncle Xu, we'll discuss the proposal you mentioned this morning in more detail tomorrow."
