New Year's Eve Vigil

1/4/2026

Cecilia Gu couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.

Ethan Yin stood nervously outside. When he saw Charles Yin holding Cecilia Gu's hand and coming out, he instinctively shrank his neck, but still mustered the courage to greet them. "Big brother, sister-in-law, thank you for earlier."

Charles Yin glanced at Ethan Yin, his eyes cool and unreadable, and gave a subtle, almost imperceptible reply, acknowledging him.

Ethan Yin didn't dare block their way and let them leave without interference.

After Charles Yin and Cecilia Gu left, Emma Yin's gaze lingered on Charles, torn with complicated emotions.

She both envied and resented Cecilia Gu.

A man as powerful as Charles Yin, like a king among men, would actually step up to defend Cecilia Gu.

That's something everyone envies, but few could ever have.

"Cecilia Gu..." Emma Yin unconsciously called out her name, but didn't say anything more.

After all, as the eldest daughter of the Yin Family, she would never let anyone catch her off guard.

After dealing with all these troublesome matters, Cecilia Gu and Charles Yin went to meet Mrs. Yin privately.

Perhaps because she had suffered a setback with Grandma Yin, Mrs. Yin was noticeably more cordial toward Cecilia Gu.

As expected, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship is a topic that women have struggled with since ancient times.

Mrs. Yin and Grandma Yin are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Yin and Cecilia Gu are also mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

There are so many twists and turns in these family struggles.

Mrs. Yin didn't try to keep Cecilia Gu for long. She simply instructed her assistant to send plenty of gifts directly to their room.

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Yin, Cecilia Gu felt a bit tired and followed Charles Yin back to their room.

As soon as they entered, Xiao Wang brought Cecilia Gu a cup of warm milk. She drank it all in one go, then accepted the herbal tea Xiao Wang handed her.

"How's the investigation I asked Xiao Wang to do?" Cecilia Gu asked directly.

When it came to her precious son, Cecilia Gu couldn't afford any mistakes.
