Chapter 140 Cheer up for each other

"Why are you... here?"

Zhen Shuwang: "Is there anything wrong with me being in my own home?"

"No, it's mainly because grandma just called you..."

"I was called to dinner, but not long after I arrived at my grandmother's house, I saw the unlocking prompt sent to me by our door lock."

"I knew who it was right away after entering the password."

"Let's go to grandma's house for dinner."

"Ah? Why don't you ask me why I came to your house?"

"No, you just went home. What can I ask you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhen Shuwang shook his hands nonchalantly.

Seeing this, Jia Wenyan could not delay any longer, so she rolled her eyes at the two people who were watching the joke and said:

"I'll deal with you when I get back."

Xuan-Yuan Sword: [Why did you agree so quickly? ]

Tian Xing: [After knowing that we knew each other since childhood, our feelings instantly warmed up. ]

Jia Wenyan: "It seems that someone wants to be the first... the second cultural relic I have ever destroyed?"

Tianxing: [Take care.]

Xuan-Yuan Sword: [I will withdraw first.]

The two weapon spirits returned to their real bodies guiltily.

At the same time, Jia Wenyan, who was following Zhen Shuwang with the picture album, was grabbed by the wrist by Zhen Shuwang who had been waiting there the moment she walked out of the room.

"What are you doing..." Jia Wenyan was a little confused by the other party's sudden action.

"It's nothing, just a side job."

After Zhen Shuwang finished speaking, he pulled Jia Wenyan's hand and brought it to the sensor of the electronic lock.

Then a familiar mechanical sound came from the electronic lock.

[The fingerprint has been entered, please confirm again. ]

Jia Wenyan: "...you are..."

"It should be normal to take the hostess's fingerprint."

"Next time you go home, don't waste time entering your password."

"Password, wait, the password you set is not..."

"Are you just realizing it? It was the day when we first met at the Terracotta Warriors Museum when we were kids."

Jia Wenyan: "You already knew who I was?"

"Of course I don't know. I just always felt that day was very important to my creative journey, so I have always had a deep memory of it."

"That's good, otherwise I would have thought you had a fetish."

"Please, this beautiful girl who has been beautiful since childhood, although you were very young back then, I am only a little over one year older than you but less than two years older."

"We are all "peers". Although you were young at the time, there is nothing wrong with me having a crush on someone my own age."

"Oh? Really?" Jia Wenyan said as she moved closer little by little.

"Okay, I'll be honest. I admit that my aesthetic taste has been consistent since I was a child. When I was a child, I liked you as a child, and when I grew up, I liked you as an adult."

"I have feelings for the same person at different stages, that's OK."

As a otaku who has left the keyboard, Zhen Shuwang, who is always tongue-tied, is responding in a desperate manner.

Seeing this, Jia Wenyan did not move closer, but smiled and retreated to a "safe distance" and said:

"Can I ask you something out of curiosity? What was your reaction when you found out I was that little girl?"

"How should I put it? Although I didn't think about it this way when I was a kid, I think it's pretty beautiful."

"I think there should be no one who would not like this kind of icing on the cake. Although it was once forgotten, it is a beautiful fate when you really think about it."

"You are quite right."

Jia Wenyan nodded.

"What about you? When did you know about it? You came here today and flipped through the album. You must have recognized it before me."

"Ah... this..." Jia Wenyan was a little embarrassed when she heard that. She couldn't tell Zhen Shuwang about the spirit of the weapon. However, this time, before she could finish her sentence, the excuse she had made up in her mind came out.

At the elevator entrance in the corridor, a voice that was very familiar to both of them was heard.

"I hinted to her to look it up."

"Grandma?" They both looked towards the elevator entrance in unison.

Xu Yonghe: "What's your reaction, both of you?"

"Xiao Wang, you don't remember going to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Dynasty by yourself when you were a child. Have you forgotten that it was my assistant who took you there every day to collect folk songs?"

"Ah, I know it was Uncle Wan who took me there."

"Yes, at that time, your uncle Wan would take some photos of you at various scenic spots for me from time to time."

"One of them is a photo of you and Wen Yan when you were little."

"I just thought it was interesting and stayed."

"I originally thought that I would use this photo to tease you when you found a girlfriend, but as time went by, I even forgot about the photo."

"But when you and I went to visit Grandma Wenyan's house a while ago, I saw the same girl in Grandma Wenyan's photo album who looked very similar to me, and I was also very impressed by the floral skirt on it."

"You know I always regretted not having a daughter, so I am very sensitive about my little daughter's clothes."

"So later I took a photo of Wen Yan when she was little and brought it back, and compared it with the photo of you and Wen Yan when they were little at home."

Zhen Shuwang: "So you brought Wen Yan to my house today just to make her realize this?"

"I guess so, but unfortunately I'm a little confused now that I'm old, so I forgot to put your photo in there."

"I was thinking of coming here to see if I could try again later, but it looks like you two have already noticed."

"How about it? Isn't it nice to have a childhood sweetheart and a lover sent from heaven?"

Zhen Shuwang: "Grandma!"

"Okay, I won't disturb you two young lovers. Anyway, your Aunt Qin said that dinner will have to wait for a while, so you two can just stroll outside and have a good chat."

After Xu Yonghe finished speaking, she turned around and left first. Before leaving, she also ordered the two people not to take the same elevator with her.

After Xu Yonghe left, Zhen Shuwang, who had been completely fooled, looked at Jia Wenyan awkwardly and said:

"So you were tricked by my grandma into coming here?"

"Yes, but I didn't expect that I would still remember the sword in the picture book, so how about the ring that corresponds to the Angel Healing Sword...

"Is it for me?"

"Well, to be honest, I didn't think that much about it when I first designed it, but if you like it, it's definitely yours."

"You. No wonder your grandma is worried that you can't find a partner." Upon hearing this, Jia Wenyan shook her head in disappointment.

Zhen Shuwang's emotional intelligence in this regard is indeed a bit low, but Jia Wenyan doesn't hate him either.

After all, she's not the type who's good at dating.

It's just right for her to keep a certain amount of space between each other like this.

However, as soon as this thought came to her mind, Zhen Shuwang suddenly asked:

"Same question, what did you think when you found out about this?"

"You really can't speak."

Jia Wenyan shook her head, but she did not refuse to respond because of this sentence.

She simply recalled everything that happened in the study room before and said:

"How should I put it? At first, I felt like I was reminded of my own dark past."

Zhen Shuwang: "Dark history?"

"Yeah, when I was little I was always a bit outgoing, the type who could chat with anyone I met."

"And I just now realized that I had seen you before, and actually recalled some of the emotions that I had at that time."

"I remember the reason why I took the initiative to talk to you was because in my impression, boys of my age were still in the state of being wild and sloppy with poor personal hygiene habits."

"And the boys I met at that time all had short crew cuts or were completely bald."

"So when I saw you, a guy wearing a shirt and vest, with a little Korean bangs on your hair, I actually had the urge to flirt with you."

Zhen Shuwang: "No, how old were you at that time? Are you so precocious?"

"It doesn't matter how old you are. It's normal for a woman to admire good-looking people at any age."

"Besides, what's wrong with children? When they were young, they might have similar thoughts because they watched idol dramas with their parents."

"Although children at that age may not understand anything, if you go to kindergarten nowadays, you will see that many children are no longer single."

"Children are much better at flirting than us adults. In kindergarten these days, if you don't have a partner, you are out of date."

"Today's kids are very possessive. In their minds, a boyfriend or girlfriend means you can only play with me."

"Besides, I was a typical loli back then. If I flirt with an otaku, the otaku won't be at a disadvantage, right?"

Zhen Shuwang: "But someone just said that he recalled his dark history."

"What? I just remembered after I finished flirting with her that I was traveling abroad at the time."

"I'm ashamed of the fact that I almost walked off with my skirt, so what?"

Zhen Shuwang: "So now that you've grown up, you've traveled thousands of miles to repay the debt of love you owed me when you were little?"

"I don't want to talk to you."

Jia Wenyan turned her head away.

Some things become more embarrassing the more you recall them. However, with a little disguise, this kind of dark history can also become something worth showing off.

Thinking of this, Jia Wenyan suddenly smiled and said:

"How about tomorrow morning, let's go buy some clothes similar to what we wore then, and then go to the Terracotta Warriors Museum to take some pictures together?"

"I dare say that if these two photos are posted together on WeChat Moments, they will definitely be a big hit."

Zhen Shuwang: "Why? I've seen too many people showing affection in the circle of friends, so I want to get revenge."

"Otherwise, you don't know my circle of friends. I have only graduated from college a few years ago, but my circle of friends is already full of photos of my classmates' married life."

"You've tortured me for so long, and now you don't allow me to take revenge?"

Zhen Shuwang: "This... can I understand that you are hinting at me?"
