"real?"
"Well, I couldn't wake you up, so I had to carry you in."
“…”
Wen Xi glanced at him.
Why are your ears so red?
Men's mouths are really deceiving.

Wen Xi brought back a lot of souvenirs this time. The driver had already taken the things from the trunk to the living room. Although they were not expensive, they were also a token of her appreciation.
"Grandpa He, this thing is very warm when you put it on your legs in winter. You can try it when the time comes."
The old man's great military achievements were gained at the cost of a lot of injuries. His knee was once broken, and although he has an implant now, it hurts a lot when it's cold.
What Wen Xi brought him was a specialty of Dan Country, knee pads made from the wool shaved from a special breed of local sheep, which were particularly effective in keeping out the cold.
The old man took the gift and his eyes narrowed into slits with joy.
"Hey, Xingzai, this is yours."
Of course, the gift for this kid is the latest electronic product.
He Xing took it obediently and thanked him. He spoke much less than before, probably because of his parents' matter. He grew up a lot overnight.
You have to get through this kind of thing on your own; no one else can help you.
Everyone grows up through loss, either losing this or losing that.
It's just that the child is so young.
Wen Xi sighed inwardly and rubbed his hair with some heartache. The little boy had changed again after not seeing him for a while. There was a vague resemblance of He Tingyan in his handsome eyes and brows. People say that nephews resemble their uncles, but presumably his father must also be a handsome man of integrity.
He Tingyan sat there with his legs spread wide open. Seeing Wenxi teasing his little nephew, giving him chocolate, and talking to the old man for a long time, as if he had forgotten about him, he finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"What about mine?"
He stretched out his hand towards Wen Xi.
"What?" Wen Xi tilted her head and looked at him with a smile, as if she didn't understand what he was saying.
"They all have gifts, but where's mine?"
"Oh!" Wen Xi patted his head and teased him, "Sorry, I forgot yours."
He Tingyan was stunned. He didn't expect that she had forgotten about him. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
"Why are you so grumpy, kid? You're really going backwards." Old Master He snorted. "Don't pay attention to him, Xi girl. He's a grown man, how can he ask a girl for a gift? Come on, follow me to the main building. You've been tired all day. I'll ask Aunt Zhou to prepare a guest room for you to rest early."
"No need, Xiaoxi will sleep here. I've already prepared the bath water."
Seeing that the old man was about to leave after calling for someone, He Tingyan didn't care about being angry anymore and pulled Wen Xi upstairs.
"You brat! Don't think I don't know what you're up to, you..."
He Tingyan ignored everyone and just walked upstairs.
"It's okay, Grandpa He, take Xingzai to rest, don't worry about me." Wen Xi winked at the old man, signaling him not to worry.
Knowing that she was a person of propriety, Mr. He didn't say anything more.
Forget it, if someone is really going to die, just hold the wedding early. He is very free anyway.
Grandpa He walked out holding the gift and He Xing's hand, full of anticipation.
I have to tell the people in the house not to come over and disturb them!
Wen Xi was pulled into He Tingyan's bedroom, and a bunch of things were stuffed into her arms.
New towels, skincare products, bathrobes and pajamas all in her size, and her change of clothes...
