Delta: We'll let you protect us, but you'll end up protecting our profession?

Gu Tian kept wiping away his grandmother's tears with tissues.

Seeing his grandmother's heartbroken appearance, he felt an indescribable sadness and a pang of sorrow.

At that moment, he even considered severing ties with Sang Yu.

Although he loved Sangyu very much, in this world, no one was more important than his grandmother.

He didn't want his grandmother to be sad because of him.

"Don't cry..." Grandma realized she had been too emotional and wiped away her tears.

After taking a deep breath to calm herself, her expression gradually became serious:

"Grandma has something to tell you..."

Seeing his grandmother's serious expression, Gu Tian also became serious: "Grandma... what is it? Please speak!"

Grandma stared into Gu Tian's eyes and said, word by word:

"Let me tell you something from my own experience... In this life, it's really not easy to meet someone you truly like."

"Regardless of the outcome, take initiative and give it a try."

Grandma had carefully considered these words, and had always wanted to say them to Gu Tian.

Gu Tian has been outstanding since he was a child, and countless girls like him and pursue him.

Gu Tian has had girls he's been attracted to, but he's never taken the initiative because of his family situation.

In the end, nothing ever came of it, and even now that I'm an adult, I've never been in a relationship.

No one would believe his appearance if you told them.

Gu Tian pursed his lips upon hearing this: "But what if I take the initiative, and it still doesn't work out in the end?"

Grandma advised, "No matter how bad it is, at least you had it and experienced it."

"Isn't life all about experiencing a limited number of things?"

At this point, Grandma looked up at the photos of her late husband and Gu Tian's parents, and tears welled up in her eyes again:

Ultimately, when people reach the end, they all return to dust.

"As for the final result, is it really that important?"

"It's always better to have loved passionately than to have done nothing at all, not even to have a beginning."

"Really?" Gu Tian was also confused at this moment.

Was my previous thinking wrong?

Grandma wiped away her tears and nodded solemnly: "Yes... Fate isn't something you wait for, it's something you chase after, and you have to hold onto it yourself."

When you're young, you're always afraid of losing face or getting hurt. But when you get old, you realize that the biggest regret is never about what you did wrong.

"It's that you should have done it, but you didn't dare to."

"If you like someone, go for it. Don't be afraid, don't hide, don't wait. Don't wait until you lose them to regret not doing anything."

After listening to his grandmother's words of comfort, Gu Tian nodded earnestly: "I understand, Grandma!"

He completely understood what his grandmother was saying.

I'd rather make a mistake than do nothing.

Even if the two don't end up together and there's no future for them.

The two of them had been together and gone through some things together.

It's much better than regretting later that you never even started.

Besides, it's not necessarily true that there's no future for the two of them, is it?

Grandma smiled kindly: "Go ahead, people are all warm-hearted. Take one step forward, and maybe someone is waiting for you."

"Okay, Grandma! Thank you, Grandma!"

Gu Tian hugged his grandmother tightly, a relieved smile on his face.

To be honest, he's been troubled by this matter recently.

The anxieties of youth are like an endless rainy season.

Without his grandmother's guidance and persuasion, he probably would have really messed things up.

You could say that experience truly matters.

The old folks have eaten more salt than the young have walked roads; this is no exaggeration.

Grandma smiled indulgently: "Alright, alright! It's getting late, go to sleep!"

"Remember what Grandma said: take it step by step, slowly!"

Gu Tian chuckled: "Goodnight, Grandma!"

"Love you, Grandma! See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow."

Grandma finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching Gu Tian return to his room.

She looked up at her husband and Gu Tian's parents: "Xiao Tian has grown up and become sensible."

"You can all rest assured over there."

After gazing at her for a few moments, Grandma finally went back to her room to rest.

Gu Tian felt uneasy after returning to his room.

I tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep no matter what I did.

I didn't dare to face this matter before, but now that it's been brought up, I feel both excited and scared.

He opened WeChat several times to find Sang Yu and wanted to start a video call, but in the end he didn't dare to.

"How should I take the initiative? Hmm... We met in the Delta, and we got to know each other in the Delta."

"Why don't we start with the Delta?"

After careful consideration, Gu Tian decided to meticulously plan a confession.

Tactical countermeasures were quickly determined.

He's a man of action; once he decides to do something, he starts doing it immediately.

Do everything to the best of your ability!

He opened WeChat and found PDD Liu's phone number, then sent him a voice message.

Brother Liu is now considered Gu Tian's elder brother.

Gu Tian felt that such an important matter should be discussed with him first.

Furthermore, the confession he wants to plan may require a lot of human and material resources.

At that point, Gu Tian might not be able to handle it alone and would need Brother Liu's help.

The other party didn't answer immediately after the voice message was sent; it took about seven or eight seconds.

"Hey? Brother Liu? Are you asleep?" Gu Tian asked casually.

"Brother Liu? Big Brother!! Don't you see what time it is? How can I not sleep?!"

PDD's amused and exasperated voice came from the other end.

Gu Tian looked up at the time and realized that it was already 2:30 a.m.

"My dear Liu... but I'm calling you so late because it's something important I need to discuss with you!"

Gu Tian's tone was tinged with apology, but also with urgency.

Top-floor duplex at COFCO Ocean View One in Shanghai.

Looking tired, PDD rolled over on the bed and said impatiently:

"What's so important? Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"

PDD hates being disturbed when he's sleeping.

She had just fallen asleep when Gu Tian woke her up with a phone call.

In other words, Gu Tian is PDD's favorite; otherwise, he would have lost his temper long ago if it were someone else.

"Hey, Brother Liu, I want to confess my feelings to Sister Sang..." Gu Tian's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Although the voice was soft, the tone was very firm.

"What?! Holy crap?! What did you say?!"

Upon hearing Gu Tian's words, PDD immediately sat up in bed, instantly losing all sleepiness!

The reason was so shocking was that he even used his Sichuan dialect!

"I said, I want to confess my feelings to Sister Sang!"

Gu Tian repeated it again, this time with an even more determined tone.

PDD was so shocked he was almost incoherent: "Wow, you're awesome...you're really something! Okay, okay!! I knew I wasn't wrong about you!"

"You wouldn't have guessed that Sang Yu has feelings for you, would you?"

Gu Tian nodded: "Yes... I can feel it, Sister Sang is still very enthusiastic."

PDD beamed: "Good, good, good! You've finally figured it out, kid!"

"How do you want to confess your feelings? Just tell me, and as long as it's not too outrageous, I'll take care of everything for you!"

Gu Tian scratched his head: "Uh... this is what I think."

"We met because of the Delta, and our relationship blossomed there too."

"We both have a deep love for the Delta."

"So I was thinking... could we hold a grand confession party in the Delta?"

PDD praised it, saying, "Great! Very creative and imaginative!"

Gu Tian smiled and said, "Here's my plan..."
