That familiar voice carried a familiar air of flippancy and sarcasm.

This time, she heard it very clearly.

That voice definitely belongs to Lu Jinghuai.

She felt a little flustered at that moment, then turned her gaze back to the crowd.

However, all she saw were unfamiliar faces.

"Wen Ran, what's wrong? What are you looking for?"

Seeing her anxious expression, Luo Anwen, who was standing to the side, also looked towards the crowd.

But apart from some readers and reporters, she saw nothing.

Because there were many reporters at the scene, Shen Wenran could not continue watching and had to continue maintaining order.

But just then, another sound rang out.

—Looks like this woman is doing quite well here.

This world is no different from the world I live in.

The two consecutive sounds aroused her suspicions once again.

This time she heard it clearly; the sound was coming from the upper right.

She kept her eyes down, avoiding looking in that direction, lest she alert the enemy.

"Alright, that concludes today's autograph session. See you next time."

As Shen Wenran spoke, he used a brush to sign his name on the book.

She signed her name 3,000 times across 3,000 books.

Now, she feels like her arm is about to break.

When readers receive their favorite books and see their favorite authors, they experience immense satisfaction.

They left the scene in an orderly manner.

The bookstore manager came out at this moment and said to Shen Wenran, "Miss Shen, you've worked hard. Miss Shen, how about we have a casual dinner together tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wenran was about to reply when he saw a familiar figure.

A man who was about 1.9 meters tall was standing in front of her, holding the hand of a child who looked about 5 years old.

When she saw those two faces, her head went blank.

Her mouth was slightly agape, and she could hardly believe her eyes.

Even Shen Wenran was surprised at this moment. She reached out and gently touched Shen Wenran's arm, lowering her voice to ask, "Wenran, what's wrong?"

Luo Anwen's gaze fell upon the father and son standing in front of them, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise at that moment.

"My God, how can there be such a handsome man? He looks exactly like he stepped out of a comic book."

Realizing she had exaggerated a bit, Luo Anwen immediately looked away and then whispered in her ear in a teasing tone, "Wen Ran, your reader?"

Shen Wenran was extremely nervous. Her fists were clenched tightly. If Luo Anwen hadn't touched her, she would have almost forgotten what she was doing.

"Wen Ran, what's wrong?"

"Nothing much, they're probably not my readers."

She glanced at the father and son, who were not holding her book.

People can be similar, and things can be alike. Perhaps they just look exactly like the man in her heart.

This must all be just a coincidence.

Little did she know, at that very moment she heard that familiar voice again.

—I knew that if I appeared in front of her, she would definitely recognize me.

—I just didn't expect her to be so surprised.

Of course, it wouldn't be surprising if she denied knowing me.

Shen Wenran's heart was pounding wildly.

She could almost hear the man's inner thoughts.

And this person seems to have stepped right out of the book. Could it be that the characters she wrote have come back to life?

Just as she was wondering, the man in front of her chuckled and said, "Tonight, my wife will be coming home with us for dinner."

Upon hearing this, the bookstore manager gave an awkward smile: "Miss Shen, you didn't mean you... I understand, you mean a secret marriage. I'm sorry to bother you."

The manager awkwardly took out a tissue and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It's normal for him to feel pressured in front of such a handsome man.

"Mommy!"

The little boy, who was about five years old, rushed into her arms the moment the manager left.

Shen Wenran was startled and quickly backed away.

"Don't come any closer! I'm not your mommy. I... I'm not even married yet, how could I have such a big child?"

She panicked and tried to push the little guy who was clinging to her leg away, but when her fingers touched his soft little face, her heart melted.

Luo Anwen opened her mouth wide, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Finally, she stammered out her words.

"Good heavens, your child is so big already, and you're already with a man??? Shen Wenran, you better explain yourself, when did you start hooking up with such a handsome man?"

After Luo Anwen finished speaking, she saw that Shen Wenran ignored her completely.

Eager to know the result, she hurriedly went to ask the man next to her.

"This girl won't tell me, so tell me quickly, how did you two meet, and what does your family do?"

"That's not right, I've been with Wen Ran the whole time, and I haven't seen her find the time to go out and have a baby..."

Lu Jinghuai said calmly at this moment, "You don't know much about what happened between her and me."

"Alright, Muran, we should take Mom home now."

"Okay, Daddy! Time to go home, time to go home!"

Shen Wenran stood there blankly, and Luo Anwen looked at her with a questioning gaze. She looked back at Luo Anwen with the same questioning gaze.

He then shook his head.

Little did she know, the man next to her reached out and grabbed her wrist, then strode out.

Luo Anwen opened her mouth, wanting to stop her, but it was too late.
