Qin Nan was led by Bai Hao to the cemetery. After walking past the rows of tombstones, they arrived at the graves of her grandparents.
Because burning paper money is not allowed anywhere, Qin Nan bought a copper basin and a jar of wine along with the paper money and ingots. He poured a little of the wine into the jar in front of the grave.
Alcohol is flammable and should not be poured out completely.
Qin Nan knelt before the tombstone, staring blankly at the black and white photo on it. It was a photo, but not quite; it was clearly drawn by her father.
Bai Hao silently stood by, waiting for Qin Nan.
After a long while, Qin Nan staggered to his feet, carrying the wine jar, and packed the copper basin and ashes into a bag to take away. He decided to leave the incense and candles he had bought unusable.
Bai Hao carried things in one hand and held Qin Nan's hand in the other, their fingers intertwined, walking quietly along the forest path.
The autumn air is crisp and clear, and fallen leaves carpet the road in gold, crunching underfoot.
Walk along the alleyways, walk along the asphalt roads, and return to the old town.
Qin Nan remained silent the whole way, and Bai Hao did not say a word either, but simply stayed by his side quietly.
The scenery along the way was both familiar and unfamiliar.
Feeling the breeze and breathing in the air, Qin Nan finally felt more awake.
Qin Nan originally intended to visit the old village chief, but Bai Hao informed her that he had passed away last year due to a sudden cerebral hemorrhage.
Qin Nan nodded silently.
Birth, aging, sickness, and death are inevitable; we can only accept them.
Li Cheng's side is doing very well. Because of Li You's joining, Li Cheng's original repair and renovation company has added new business and now has a construction department.
Although Li You had many complaints about clients and even vented to Bi Shen behind his back, he was still very serious and responsible when it came to work.
Unfortunately, Li Cheng was out of town, apparently checking orders at a materials processing plant, and was not at home.
It was getting late, and Qin Nan had no one to visit, so she thought she would head home, but Bai Hao led her in a different direction.
Bai Hao brought Qin Nan to the long-lost "Liu's Snack Shop," the same shop Qin Nan had brought Bai Hao to before.
The old books that Qin Nan once left behind, the shop of Grandpa Liu who was a good friend of his grandfather, is now the shop of Grandpa Liu's apprentice.
Bai Hao ordered all the dishes on the menu and packed them up to take home. It wasn't mealtime yet, so there weren't many people. He would wait a little longer; it would get busier as it got dark.
Even after all these years, Bai Hao still doesn't like crowded places.
Bai Hao had already thrown away the trash left over from burning paper money earlier. There were quite a few vegetables, and the two of them carried them back to the Qin residence with large and small bags.
The three little ones at home were happily playing on the sofa, and when they smelled the aroma of food, they quickly threw the tablet away.
After dinner, Chi Wei and the others cleaned up, while Qin Nan sat on the sofa looking at her phone.
Bai Hao was the one who replied to many of the messages.
Senior Zhao Qiuyan, Luo Lin, Zhou Miao, Qin An, and Uncle Li Cheng sent some messages to greet them.
"What is Luo Lin talking about? Is it Zhao Wan and Song Huiru?"
Bai Hao was lying on the sofa playing Candy Crush when he heard this and paused.
"Yes, they were reincarnated as twins. They are now Luo Lin's daughters. Next month, on the 10th, is Luo Lin's wedding day. He sent an invitation. I wasn't sure if you would wake up, so I didn't agree to go."
"Daughter? Marriage?!" Qin Nan was shocked.
"It's a long story. To put it simply, their lives weren't exactly good to begin with. It was only because of Luo Lin's entanglement with them in the painting that he became involved in karma again, thus changing their fate."
Although Zhu Zhenghe and he are not the same person, he was still affected.
You can ask him for details later; since you're awake, he'll definitely go.
"Well, it was quite a coincidence. I might have even seen the other people in the dorm, even though I didn't stay there anymore."
"Yes, if you want to go, I'll go with you."
“Then… Li Yuchu…”
"He disappeared after more than ten days, and Shan You saw him off."
"Hmm...wait, why don't I see Zhou Miao and Lü Zeqi?"
Bai Hao paused, his hand hovering over the phone screen, his expression somewhat speechless.
“They left the child with their parents and went on a trip to enjoy their time together. They can’t make it back in time, so I didn’t tell them you were awake. But when Murong remembers, she will probably tell them.”
"The child... yes, Xiao Lu mentioned before, that they adopted him?"
"No, it's a pregnancy fruit."
Qin Nan was slightly taken aback, and met Bai Hao's gaze.
"What do you mean? You want children too?"
"No!" Bai Hao refused decisively.
Qin Nan was somewhat surprised, thinking that Bai Hao had changed his mind. "You don't want it?"
Bai Hao turned off his phone screen, sat up, and turned to look at Qin Nan.
"Why would I create a little brat to steal my partner? I'm not going to waste my time!"
Qin Nan: "..."
As expected, Bai Hao remained the same, unchanged.
Seeing Qin Nan remain silent, Bai Hao asked with a serious expression, "A Nan, you don't want a baby, do you?"
Qin Nan lowered his head and pondered upon hearing this.
The child... to be honest, he had never thought about it, and even when he and Bai Hao were beasts together day and night, they had never thought about it either. If asked suddenly, he didn't know.
"Big brother, Brother Anan, are you going to have a baby?"
Chi Weitao, Xiao Lu, and Qiong Ruiheng stood in a row behind the sofa, looking at the two with a hint of anticipation.
Qin Nan smiled and shook her head, "No, not at least not in the short term."
"oh……"
The light that had been shining in the eyes of the three little ones disappeared visibly.
"What? You all really want me and Bai Hao to have a baby?"
Tao Xiaolu nodded vigorously upon hearing this, "Yes, yes! Of course I want to! Brother Anan, don't worry, we can help you raise the baby!"
Qiong Ruiheng nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, Brother Anan, we'll all take care of the baby, you won't get tired!"
"Yes, Brother Anan, I took care of my sister when she was very young. I'm quite good at it. Are you really not going to ask the eldest brother for a baby?"
Qin Nan: "..."
Actually, it wasn't him who gave birth; he was just nurturing the fruit. But suddenly being pressured to give birth felt really strange, especially since it wasn't his parents who were being pressured to give birth, but his three little ones.
Bai Hao raised his hand and tapped the three little heads one by one.
"Why are you three so concerned about whether we have children or not?"
The three little ones huddled together and backed away, but their determination to give birth was unwavering.
"Boss, don't you want to have your own baby? And a baby with Brother Anan!"
"Yeah, Hao-ge, don't you want a little Anan-gege to be your baby?"
"Yes, yes, that's right! Brother Anan is so handsome, he must have been very cute when he was little. Big Fox... Brother Hao, don't you want a baby like him? Little Brother Anan must have been so soft and adorable!"
Bai Hao remained silent upon hearing this.
Qin Nan remained silent upon hearing this.
So why are they urging us to have a baby? These little rascals are just thinking about having a little baby to play with. And to convince Bai Hao, they really know exactly what he wants.
After a while, Bai Hao looked at Qin Nan with some interest.
Qin Nan sighed softly, "It's up to you. You can have me or not."
Upon hearing Qin Nan's agreement, Bai Hao, without saying a word, conjured up a small green fruit out of thin air.
Qin Nan paused for a moment, hesitated for a long time, and then said nothing. She first fed Bai Hao the essence of the pregnancy fruit.
The originally cold fruit warmed for a moment, then fell silent.
