The next morning, when Suzy woke up, it was already bright. The sun was shining directly onto her face.

George was sitting beside the bed with his back turned to the sun. His handsome face appeared soft and gentle. "Are you awake?"

Suzy leaned over and put her pillow on his lap, acting lazy and not wanting to move.

George stretched out his hand to caress the top of her head. His slender fingers started combing through her hair as he said to her warmly, "What have you been doing the past two days?"

Suzy was half-squinting her eyes and reported to him where she had gone in the past two days, including the castle in the forest, which was exactly the same as the castle she imagined.

Before she was four years old, the warmest memory of hers was of the neighbor's daughter who would hold onto an old fairy tale book and read her the stories in it. There was Snow White, the Princess and the Pea, Princess Jasmine... They would all end up living inside a castle and have a happily ever after with their princes.

The moment Suzy approached the castle, she seemed to be brought back to her childhood and felt the warmth of her deepest memory.

George asked, "Have you been to the ice skating rink?"

"Skating rink?" Suzy raised her head on his lap, her eyes lighting up.

An hour later, Suzy and George were standing on the skating rink. Both of them had changed their clothes, and George was putting on protective gear for Suzy.

"Do the shoes fit?" George was half-squatting down and putting knee pads for her as he asked warmly *They do." Suzy lowered her head slightly. "Aren't you busy today? Don't you need to meet up with Hilde?"

*I've been busy for a few days, so I'm taking a rest. There's a dinner party in the evening, and we'll be going there together." George stood up and held her hand, "Just follow my lead and relax

Suzy nodded, completely unafraid. Perhaps because the person holding her hand was George,

The man had always given her a sufficient sense of security

Moreover, a sense of security was a strange and unfamiliar feeling for her.

There were only the two of them in the huge skating rink As Suzy was already very flexible, after skating two laps with George, she had mastered the essentials. She let go of his hands

and started wandering around by herself.

George followed her from behind. He watched her go from carefully sliding forward before she made rapid progress. She was not like a beginner at all.

He knew that she was incredibly smart, but she was not great at integrating into this complex world. She was more like a diamond in the rough. After meticulous polishing, Suzy would be the most amazing treasure!

Suzy was skating forward for quite a distance. She turned around to see that George was standing there on the phone.

George hung up the phone and suddenly heard Suzy laughing while calling out from behind him, "Uncle George!"

He turned around, and Suzy was smiling as she dashed toward him. George instinctively opened his arms, and almost instantly, Suzy was already in front of him. She threw herself into his arms. She hugged his waist tightly, and her shoulders were trembling as she giggled non-stop.

It was his first time hearing Suzy laugh in such a way. It was pure and distinctive.

Suzy hugged the man, buried her head in his arms, and gradually stopped laughing. She merely pursed her lips lightly, and the space in front of her was completely filled with the man's clear breaths.

Moreover, his chest was warm.

George held her waist, turned her over, and hugged her as if to embed her in him before

skating forward together.

"Open your hands," the man whispered in her ear.

Suzy gave control to the man and opened her arms. The ice blades quickly slid across the ice, and for a moment, she seemed to be flying.

The corners of her lips could not help but smile. Her heart felt infinitely calm and happy,

After skating, George took her to lunch on a boat. The chef was specially invited from Cloud City, so the pastries and dishes were all authentically from this area. Meanwhile, Suzy saw Winona and Bennett on another boat,
