"Hmph, let me, Akoya Maju, see what your so-called divination magic is all about!"

Zhenzhu sat down, closed her eyes, and began to experience the future branch that was uniquely hers.

Many years later.

In an ordinary room, a boy wakes up groggily from a dream, yawning as usual. He glances at the alarm clock that is about to ring and turns it off.

I opened the door and walked down the stairs of the two-story building, preparing to go to the bathroom to wash up.

As he passed through the living room, he heard a sound that made his hair stand on end.

"Oh, darling, you can't do that here..."

"Hey, you're on top of me now, don't cry wolf."

"Let's do it again before the child wakes up!"

"I need to make breakfast first."

"I'll be your breakfast today, hehe."

"No, Zhenzhu, you're too..."

"What pearl? I'm your wife now, so I can do whatever I want to you. Isn't this a rule that was set from the day we got married?"

"That's still not allowed..."

"How about we have another baby for that child, like a younger brother or sister? Hehe."

"Calm down!"

"Today is our anniversary! To be honest, even today... I still feel like I'm dreaming. I really didn't expect... that you would actually choose me back then. Zhenzhu won! This time... Zhenzhu is the real winner! This is amazing! Darling, let me recharge a little more!"

"Whoa!!!"

——

Listen to the terrible noise coming from the sofa in the living room.

The boy's face flushed bright red as he strode into the living room and then loudly... "Ahem!"

The terrible noise stopped abruptly.

With her hair slightly disheveled, Zhenzhu looked up at the other person and teased without any shyness, "Luozhen, you woke up so early today, kid?"

"Mom! Can you please stop doing this kind of thing in the living room? At least consider how I feel!"

"Didn't you say before that you wanted a cute little sister?"

"I was just joking!"

"Haha, Mom doesn't care!"

"Please, please stop doing this."

"What does it matter if it's within our own family?"

"If this continues, I'm going to run away from home."

“Darling, look at what this child is saying.”

Zhenzhu sat up again.

Lorraine awkwardly scrambled up from the sofa, finally free. He said nothing, simply rising to stand before his son, placing a hand on his shoulder, his eyes filled with complex emotions. "Son, you know… your mother has always…"

"Dad, forget it, don't say anything more, I understand."

"But you'd better be mentally prepared."

"A younger brother or sister...it can't be true, can it?!"

"You'll have to ask your mother."

Luo Zhen's lips twitched.

Turning to look at her silly mother, who, far from being embarrassed, beamed and gave a V-sign, saying happily, "If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected is about to happen."

"You finally come home for a visit, and this is the last thing you do to me???"

Luo Zhen was on the verge of collapse and pressed, "You won't make me support my younger siblings then, will you?!"

Pearl on hip.

"Hasn't Mom always given you plenty of living expenses?"

“You guys are always running off to other places every few days... going abroad... even going to the North and South Poles to do some kind of charity concerts. You're away from home for a full eight months of the year. What if you give me a younger brother or sister and leave me to raise them then?”

"Oh dear, doesn't Grandma come to visit you often?"

"I'm only a second-year student, Mom. Please, if you love singing so much, why did you choose to retire at the height of your fame after becoming a world-renowned idol singer?"

"You child... whose fault do you think this is?"

"Could it be because of me again?"

"Yes, didn't Mom explain it to you? It was because I was pregnant with you that I voluntarily gave up my debut and chose to retire."

"When will this kind of life of going out every day end? Sometimes even during the Chinese New Year, I'm all alone at home, it's so quiet and lonely. If it weren't for my grandma always coming to keep me company, I would have thought I had become an orphan."

"You're such a grown man, yet you still like to act like a spoiled child. Shouldn't boys prefer to live alone?"

"You can't expect someone to survive alone in the wilderness from a young age, can you?"

"Okay, stop sulking. Mom promises you, if I really get pregnant this time, I'll consider ending my charity performance and stay home with you."

"real?"

"certainly……"

"You keep your word?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Then hurry up and just pretend I don't exist."

"It's okay. We'll have a good time after you go back to school. We won't be going out for more than a month."

"I hope you keep your word this time."

"Oh, by the way, Grandma said she's coming to stay for a while in a couple of days, so I wanted to let you know in advance."

"That's great."

Seeing her home bustling with activity again was a rare treat, and Luo Zhen was so moved she almost cried.
