Chapter 197



You were born before I was born, and I was born after you had grown old...

Zhuo Huimei didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence before, but after watching yesterday's video, she suddenly understood...

"Meimei? Zhuo Huimei? What are you thinking about?" Best friend A turned her back.

"What else could you be thinking about? It's just spring fever!" said Ye Baobao, her best friend who was very 'knowing' about it.

Zhuo Hui rolled her eyes at the two of them. What do you know? This can't be called being in love! This is clearly just improving her personal aesthetic sense!

"Hehe, look what I found! Meimei's latest follower—"

Ye Baobao quickly leaned over and immediately spotted Xiao A's Weibo account—Xu Qian V—the head of the 'Four Beauties'!

Seeing this, Ye Baobao couldn't help but sigh that beauty fades with age. Heaven knows why the difference between people is so great. Looking around, it seems that no one can defeat the 'Four Beauties' of twenty years ago.

In conclusion, Xu Qian is almost fifty years old in the eyes of the Chinese people. His Weibo is still updated slowly every month, but the number of people looking forward to him is increasing, and he has even gained more attention than today's young idols.

As for why, it all started with a Weibo post from last month...

In the middle of last month, the official Weibo account of the State Environmental Protection Administration updated an article on the achievements of the Xisha Desert governance—my country has achieved remarkable results in the ecological restoration and governance of the Xisha Desert.

In the past, people would just look at the photos and say "rabbit is awesome" and move on. But what's important is that there are several photos taken on-site. Upon closer inspection, isn't this the long-lost cousin?

Yes, that's Qin You's cousin, who, like his cousin, made a fleeting appearance and then disappeared.

In the photo, Qin You is talking to an old farmer. It must have been a windy day, as his hair was disheveled by the wind, which revealed his facial features—not much different from the past, just a little haggard. Of course, this is in comparison to his past self; compared to the others in the photo, it seems that time has been selective in its treatment of him.

Even by today's standards, he was definitely a handsome middle-aged man!

[Does their family never age? How come they're still so good-looking?]

[Don't even mention it, my daughter said Lao Xu looked handsome in his selfie last month.]

[My daughter...so real.../facepalm]

[By the way, why doesn't Lao Xu have children? Isn't that a waste of their genes? I just don't understand.]

[Can't figure it out +1]

[Be childless by choice! What's so great about having children? It's just ruining your health!]

[Well... you can't call it that. It's a personal choice. Whether to have children or not is a personal decision.]

[A passerby who stumbled upon this commented, "This fandom seems a bit strange..."]

[A fan of the older generation says... we'll get used to it, fans follow their idols...]

The topic was gaining popularity, but it truly reached its peak with a video on I-site, where the former master of editing made a comeback—from now on, all roles and beauties should be based on this standard: Xu Qian!

A short, two-minute video clip quickly rose to the top of the trending charts that day, proving that China today is truly a country where "looks matter," as evidenced by the endless stream of young, handsome male celebrities in the entertainment industry.

Imagine the incredible sight of a clip from twenty years ago suddenly rising to the top of the charts.

Once there was one, soon there was two, and even three...

—I'm sorry! I had no idea that Master was so beautiful!

—[Xu Qian][Yu Shi] are forever gods!

—What the hell is this crazy, stunningly beautiful woman?!

This event could easily be called a feast for those who appreciate beauty; who doesn't love beautiful women? Of course, technological advancements played a significant role, with all the footage being high-definition Blu-ray quality.

The most popular character is undoubtedly the Master. After all, who doesn't love the "white moonlight" factor? Next is Jiang Fulin, the cold second male lead in the drama who doesn't love anyone. His character is a little bit of a scumbag, but "scumbag" is all the rage now!

...

Xu Qian, who was at the center of the conversation, was unaware of this. He was currently in the hospital, waiting for good news from the operating room. It was Meng Liangchen's second child; the eldest was already three years old and was peacefully nestled in his arms.

Congratulations, mother and baby are safe and sound!

Meng Liangchen leaned tightly against the wall, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the story, and soon a smile appeared on his face.

Xu Qian turned to Meng Liangchen's arm, and he vaguely felt something slipping away.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Before Meng Liangchen could react, Xu Qian had already put his arm around hers. The barely noticeable inscription on her arm was gradually disappearing, leaving it smooth and new, as if it had never existed before.

Meng Liangchen subconsciously looked at Xu Qian, only to see him standing there, his eyes seemingly... filled with sadness.

“I understand…” Xu Qian murmured.

"What did you find out?" the eldest in his arms asked him.

Xu Qian looked down at him, smiled, and then turned to Meng Liangchen in front of him, "I'm leaving now. Take good care of yourselves."

Meng Liangchen took his eldest son with a blank expression. Before he could say anything, the nurse behind him called his name again.

This time, Xiaoqing didn't follow him. Instead, she stood beside Yan Shou, as if to comfort him, "He's just doing what he wants to do, don't worry."

He'll probably come back once he's finished.

...

Sui City, Tiantan Waterfall.

A person stood under the waterfall, dressed in the most ordinary T-shirt and jeans, looking like a young college student.

"You said you'd give me anything, so... can I have this too?"

He wanted to go home.

Author's Note: There are three more chapters of extras about returning home, and then it will end at chapter 200!
