On Babysitting My Childhood Friend's Child

[Entertainment industry] [Top-tier star and straight-A student x rising illustrator] [Childhood friends reunited after years apart] [Mutual pining] When they were young, they were too shy to know what to do with feelings that were different, and too afraid to admit them. Later, when they finally understood those feelings, the chance had already passed them by. Luckily, he had always loved her. They reconnected, but it all began when Jiang Nan's child appeared at Gu Shuangshuang's doorstep. Stunned by this, she had no idea how to handle Jiang Nan's nightly phone calls, so she deliberately kept her distance. She absolutely would not develop feelings for a married man. Jiang Chen: “My mom is called Jiang Qing.” “Then what about your dad?” Jiang Chen: “My dad is called Jiang Nan.” Jiang Nan: “Actually, in a sense, I'm Jiang Chen's godfather.” Gu Shuangshuang: “Why didn't you say so earlier?” “Jiang Nan is just a product of the capitalists now. If you get together with him, you won't get far in this industry. These days, he can't escape the pressure the company puts on him, no matter what he says or does.” “People in this business are a mess. Don't let yourself get fooled.” “I read so many comments today, both good and bad. It's not that I don't take them to heart. How could I not care? Some of those things were so cruel. I'm afraid that if I let them sink in, they'll fester inside me until I suffocate.” Jiang Nan wrapped his arms around Gu Shuangshuang's waist from behind as they admired the dazzling lights in the distance. He murmured in her ear, “Shuangshuang, a new year for the two of us has arrived.” Yes, at last, a new year in which they had each other had arrived.
