Chapter 111

As for who that important figure was, it really didn’t matter! Chu Tianhe only needed to casually mention any name he fancied.

At this moment, Mu Xue had effectively handed over control to Chu Tianhe. Her words were clever, and her brilliance lay in this very approach—she never made decisions for Chu Tianhe but always understood her place and never overstepped her bounds.

Chu Tianhe was very pleased with this.

She knew respect and etiquette, had a keen sense of propriety, and understood when to advance or retreat.

One had to admit, Mu Xue was an exceptionally astute businesswoman, and her ability to read people’s hearts was truly remarkable.

“Brother-in-law...” Qin Xiaomeng turned her head, her beautiful eyes shifting toward Chu Tianhe. Just as she was about to ask who exactly the important person Chu Tianhe had saved back then was, Wang Yanyan deftly interrupted her train of thought with a smile. “Miss Mu, Mr. Chu, everything is ready!”

In that instant, Mu Xue’s sparkling eyes turned toward Yaoyao, smiling gently. “Yaoyao, Aunt Wang is going to take you to touch the moon. Are you ready?”

Upon hearing this, Yaoyao’s face lit up with excitement as she nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, I’m ready!”

Mu Xue and Wang Yanyan then turned their attention to Chu Tianhe once more, seeking his approval. When Chu Tianhe nodded slightly in agreement, Wang Yanyan immediately raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

“Click!”

In an instant, the rooftop plunged into darkness, with only the flickering flame of the solid alcohol beneath the dining plates providing light.

A large black curtain unfurled, veiling the real moon from view.

“Click!”

The projector sprang to life, and a massive moon appeared on the curtain.

“Wow!!”

Seeing this, Yaoyao erupted in joyous shouts, grasping Chu Tianhe’s hand. “Daddy, look! It’s the moon! Aunt Wang is pulling the moon closer!”

Wang Yanyan held a rope in her hand, feigning great effort as she gradually pulled the moon on the projection screen nearer. While adults could easily see through the ruse, to a child’s eyes, Wang Yanyan was truly tugging the moon closer with that rope.

As the projected moon drew nearer, Yaoyao grew happier and clapped her hands with enthusiasm.

When the moon’s image filled the entire curtain, Wang Yanyan stopped and smiled. “Alright, Yaoyao, you may go touch the moon now!”

“Really?” Yaoyao turned excitedly to Chu Tianhe.

“Go ahead,” Chu Tianhe said with a smile, nodding to encourage her. Yaoyao then hurried forward.

As Yaoyao’s attention shifted for a moment, the curtain suddenly rose, blocking the real moon from her sight.

At that moment, a large moon-shaped decorative lamp appeared before her.

“Wow!!”

Yaoyao reached out and touched the lamp, her excitement bubbling over as she waved her arms. “Daddy, come quickly! The moon feels cool and so comfortable!”

To simulate the moon’s texture, the lamp was equipped with a cooling mist inside, chilling its surface and making the sensation all the more realistic for Yaoyao.

“Daddy, come, come touch it too!”

Yaoyao beckoned Chu Tianhe with a wave, urging him to come feel the moon as well. Just as Chu Tianhe stood to approach the artificial moon, Yaoyao closed her eyes, stretched out her arms, and pressed her whole body against its surface, savoring the coolness. Tears glistened in the corners of her eyes.
