But... he always felt that something was wrong... as if something was missing...

Shen Que thought he would have to wait for a long time, but it seemed that as soon as he closed his eyes and opened them again, the sunlight outside the house turned orange.

Ann had come out of the kitchen at some point and was sitting on a high stool next to him, fiddling with a bunch of freshly picked flowers.

"This is hyacinth." An said to Shen Que, "It will be placed on the dining table later."

"Mom said her friend actually likes wisteria the most, but wisteria is too expensive, so she can only use this instead."

At first glance, the blue-purple hyacinths look like wisteria blooming on the ground.

There was a knock on the bakery door and Ann jumped off her stool.

The sound of wind chimes rang out, and Shen Que looked up.

I saw Ai Fan wearing a large sun hat and carrying a brown leather suitcase standing by the door.

"Excuse me," she said politely to the little girl.

An was stunned. It was the first time she saw such a beautiful and elegant lady.

"Welcome..."

Before he could finish his words, a gust of wind blew between the two of them and hit Ai Fan.

"Banfan!"

"You're finally here! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

"You didn't come to see me for ten whole years! No...it's ten years, three months and fifteen days! You have such a cruel heart, wuwuwu..."

Ai Fan patted Carolina's messy head and said, "Okay, okay, long time no see. I will stay here for the entire summer vacation. I'll trouble you to treat me well."

Carolina pulled Evan into the house.

After Ai Fan came in, another tall figure appeared at the door.

Pei Li was seen carrying a larger box in one hand and a little boy in the other, as if he was carrying a rabbit.

The moment he stepped through the door, the little boy seemed to have turned on a switch and began to struggle wildly.

"Let me go!! I don't want to go in!! I have an appointment with Shafiya to kill worms!! Pei Li, if you have the guts, let me go!!"

"Kill that damn worm! Can you reach the worm's toes?" Pei Li sneered.

"Worms don't have toes!" Pei Ji, who was the size of a dumpling, kept kicking his legs in the air.

He found an opportunity to escape from Pei Li's armpit, climbed onto the tall Alpha's shoulders and tried to jump out the door, but was caught back by Pei Li with one hand.

"Whether the worm has toes or not, you can't go back today." Pei Li sneered.

"I've told you a thousand times I don't want to come!" Pei Ji was so angry that his eyes turned red. "I fucking hate bread! I hate sweets!"

An was unhappy when he heard this.

"Do you have any manners? This is a bakery! How can you say you hate bread here?"

"What's it to you!" Pei Ji then looked at the people in the room, "Do I need your approval for what I hate?!"

His little face was wrinkled into a ball.

"That team of mercenaries finally agreed to take me to the Worm Cave, all because of you! Now they'll think I'm a coward! Running away from the battlefield! Everyone will laugh at me!"

"I don't want to have dinner or afternoon tea with you kids!"

"I hate this place! I hate bread! I hate sweets! I'll always hate it! I..."

Pei Ji's vicious gaze suddenly met Chen Que.

The cold and scorching gazes collided lightly in the air, stirring up subtle ripples.

Tuanzi Pei opened his mouth and seemed to have forgotten what he was going to say.

All he had eyes for was that beautiful little boy.

He has black hair, clear eyes, and skin as white and delicate as petals.

Pei Ji didn't understand why this little boy's eyes, nose, mouth... his face, his features... all grew into his favorite look...

He could hear the sound of his own heart beating, louder than the church bells.

Shen Que looked at Pei Ji with bright eyes.

He wanted to ask Pei Ji if he still remembered him, where was this place? Was this the world he created?

He wanted to tell Pei Ji that a lot of time had passed outside, the war was over, he had dealt with everything, and they could return to Baisha Star.

But the fact is that Tuanzi Chen frowned at the arrogant Tuanzi Pei, and the moment their eyes met, he announced loudly:

"If you hate it, then hate it. Who asked you to like it?"

"It's all because of you that today's cookies aren't sweet anymore."

"I hate you too, and I will hate you forever!"
